MY NAME IS

JESSE MATHES

A metalsmith and stay-at-home mom

About me I’m from Denver, originally, and have lived in Arvada since 2012. In 1995, I moved to San Diego for my undergraduate degree then I went to Indiana University for my graduate degree. Both of them are in metalsmithing. Then, my husband and I moved to Chicago just for fun in 2005. We were there for six years. Chicago is a cool city, but we missed Colorado, and when we decided to start a family, we wanted to come home. I met my husband, Nathan Richie, through a friend in 1999, and we got married in 2008 when we were living in Chicago. I like Arvada. We live in a very friendly community, and we have really wonderful neighbors. Plus, it’s close to my husband’s job with the Golden History Museums, and it’s easy to get to both the mountains and downtown Denver.

Adornment fit for a queen There’s something about working with metal that I find very soothing. I make large-scale adornment

Jesse Mathes is a metalsmith and stay-at-home mom whose husband works in Golden. COURTESY PHOTO about personal space and boundaries. I have found that most people have felt defensive about their personal space at some point in their life, so I feel that most people can relate to the idea. I began to imagine ways a woman could establish personal boundaries, and I got inspired by Queen Elizabeth I of England while studying abroad in Scotland in 1999. She chose to adorn herself in clothing that made her the visual center of a crowd — her prodigious gowns and jewelry enlarged her presence physically and asserted her dominance over her subjects. I was featured in Denver Life Magazine in September and November. And I was part of the opening night for Denver Fashion Weekend on Nov. 9. I collaborated

with Sara Brentano, who did the models’ makeup, and Charlie Price on their clothing and hair pieces. That was my first fashion show. I had seen my work on display on mannequins, but this was the first time I got to see it move. It was a really wonderful event. It was great to see all the local talent as well as the world-renowned designers that were a part of the event. I also do pieces made out of woven metal and small silver jewelry for everyday wear. You can see all my work on my website, www.jessemathes.com, and the silver jewelry is at the Foothills Art Center in Golden for its Holiday Art Market. Family life I enjoy going to the mountains and hiking. And I also like to cook — experimenting with new recipes. I am a combination stayat-home mom and metalsmith. I have two kids, who are 4 and 6. It’s been great being able to spend so much time with them. I feel very lucky to be able to do all the activities with them that I wouldn’t be able to do if I had to go to work every day.

Golden teen named outstanding youth STAFF REPORT

The spirit of volunteering and giving is a passion for Eric Bear, who works to improve the quality of life for chronically ill children. The Eagle Scout from Golden joins 10 other outstanding donors, volunteers, businesses and foundations who were celebrated at the National Philanthropy Day in Colorado luncheon Nov. 9. Bear was named Outstanding Youth. Bear was inspired by the doctors who treated his chronic asthma and reached out to the Morgridge Academy at National Jewish Hospital to ask how he could give back. The kindergarten through eighth-grade nonprofit school for chronically ill children relies solely on donations. Bear has spent more than 100 hours volunteering at Morgridge since 2016. He has collected school supplies through a drive that involved others in his community, including the City of Golden and the Colorado Academy. He tutors students in math, and he introduced the academy to Colorado Outward Bound. Bear experienced the impact the program has on youth to build confidence and life-long leadership skills. As the Outstanding Youth honoree, Bear will receive a $2,500 scholarship, as will the Outstanding Youth Group winner, the B.I.O.N.I.C. Team at Pomona High School in Arvada. Nearly 800 community members attended the luncheon to celebrate the honorees, who were chosen through a public selection process involving community representatives from the nonprofit/foundation, business and business sectors.

It’s Thanksgiving, and I’m Thankful for Many Things & Many People

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday – a non-denominational opportunity to reflect on the past year and our current situation. I subscribe to the teaching that what we dwell on affects what we draw to ourselves. For example, if we think we might fail at a task, we are more likely to fail, but if we think we’ll succeed, we’re more likely to succeed. Some people refer to this as the “law of attraction.” That’s why I like Thanksgiving, because it causes me to dwell on what I’m thankful for – not my regrets, not my failures, not what went wrong, but what went right and the good people in my life. Well, I have a lot to be thankful for! First of all, I’m thankful to be married to Rita, who always thinks positively and now shares her positive energy with me and the broker associates at Golden Real Estate as our office manager. Her positive orientation is evident in our house, where she has such phrases as “How Does It Get Any Better Than This?” and “What Else is Possible?” printed on our family room wall. How did I get so lucky as to attract this woman into my life? I’m forever grateful for that! Rita and I have a three “adopted daughters” — three women who consider us “Mama Ri” and “Papa Jim.” Thank you, Kristin in Kansas City, Ashley in Centennial, and Benedikte in Seattle, for honoring us with your love. Secondly, I’m thankful for our great broker associates at Golden Real Estate. In order of seniority, they are: Jim Swanson, who worked beside me at Coldwell Banker and RE/Max Alliance before joining Golden Real Estate when Rita and I founded it in 2007. He’s our native Goldenite, living ½ mile from our office. Carrie Lovingier lived in Golden when she joined us as Carrie Ackley soon after our founding. She married a high school sweetheart, Brady, and lives with him and his sons in Evergreen now – she’s our foothills anchor. Kristi Brunel is from Wisconsin but met her soul mate, Kenny, on the ski slopes of Colorado, marrying into that legendary “old

Golden” family. Kristi and I met through Leadership Golden, and I was honored that she wanted to begin her real estate career with us. As an owner, along with Kenny and her father-in-law, of numerous rentals, she’s a resource to me and her clients as an expert in buying investment properties. Leo Swoyer came to us as a new Realtor after a long career as a licensed appraiser specializing in mountain properties. His expertise in valuing properties and his knowledge of mountain properties has been valuable to us on many occasions. Chuck Brown was an independent broker with Metro Brokers in Denver, but he lives on Lookout Mountain, so he was attracted to joining Golden Real Estate as a broker associate. He is our Denver specialist and continues to list many Denver homes and serve Denver buyers as well as here in Jeffco. David Dlugasch was broker/owner of his own real estate company in Crested Butte, but chose to join Golden Real Estate when he moved to Arvada to be closer to his daughter’s family in the Village of Five Parks. He says that reading my newspaper columns was a factor is deciding to join us. Thanks for the compliment, David! Andrew Lesko transferred to Golden Real Estate so he could specialize in Golden area condos and townhomes. We were so impressed by his research on this topic and his creation of GoldenLifestyleProperties.com that it was a no-brainer to welcome him into our fold! I met Susan Dixon at the Colorado Environment Film Festival. Her commitment to sustainability drew her to leave her previous brokerage and join Golden Real Estate. She lives in Arvada. Norm Kowitz serves with Kristi Brunel on the board of the Christian Action Guild, and I met him when he represented a buyer for one of my listings. He, too, was attracted by this newspaper column and before long he became a great copy editor for me. Thanks, Norm, for joining us! These broker associates provide a depth and breadth of expertise, but they all share a

commitment to our values off integrity, service and sustainability, and I couldn’t be prouder to be associated with them. Next, I am thankful for you, our readers, who turn to us every week for advice, which we are happy to provide, whether or not you hire us for the sale and/or purchase of real estate. Thank you for your confidence in us. Next, I’m thankful for the National Association of Realtors and our local association, the Denver Metro Association of Realtors. Not all licensed agents choose to join NAR and DMAR, but they all benefit from these organizations’ work to protect home ownership and our industry. I’m proud to say that Golden Real Estate is a Realtor brokerage, and all our agents are Realtors. I’m also thankful for our local MLS and its CEO, Kirby Slunaker, who has shepherded the organization to a level of service and effectiveness which I couldn’t have imagined just five years ago. Our MLS has a great website, and now we are about to merge with the northern Colorado MLS, called IRES, to create an even stronger and better MLS. I’m proud to serve on the Rules & Regulations Committee of REcolorado. Regular readers know of my commitment not just to sustainability but also to the adoption of electric vehicles. I am so thankful that EVs are going mainstream and that multiple countries (France, China, Norway and the UK, among others) are speeding the end of internal combustion-powered automobiles. I predicted this revolution a couple years ago, but this year’s developments in that regard surprised even me. We should all be thankful for the various service organizations which contribute so much to society—Rotary, Lions, Sertoma, Optimists, Kiwanis, and others. Rotary, for example, is singularly responsible for the eradication of polio. The Lions Clubs, in-

spired in 1925 by Helen Keller, have worked on projects to prevent blindness, restore eyesight and improve eye care for millions of people worldwide. The Optimists are all about serving youth. Here in Golden, they have a “bicycle recycle” program that has provided free or inexpensive bicycles to those who couldn’t afford them. Sertoma (short for “Service to Mankind”) is devoted to serving those at risk of hearing loss. Service clubs in America are in decline, although I’m pleased to report that both the Golden Rotary Club and Golden Lions Club are experiencing a surge in membership this year. (Rita and I are Rotarians, and I’m a Lion.) If voluntarism is in your heart, I urge you to check into one of these clubs in your community, all of which welcome you as their guest at one of their meetings. I don’t have room to mention all of the organizations or people for whom I am thankful, but let me mention one more — our local chambers of commerce. Golden Real Estate is pleased to be a member of the West Chamber serving Jefferson County and the Golden Chamber of Commerce, on whose board of directors I serve. The organizations play an important role is promoting a healthy business environment in the communities they serve. Legislators benefit from their advice and feedback regarding bills affecting business. All businesses should consider joining their local chamber and participate in their events.

We welcome the opportunity to meet with you in your home to discuss your real estate needs. Call Jim Smith at 303-525-1851

Residents hope park ‘will bring the neighborhood together’ City under contract to purchase DeLong property on 23rd Street BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Karen Brouwer has lived in the central neighborhoods area of Golden for 37 years. She frequently takes walks around the area and has grandkids who visit her often. And, she said, “I would love to have a park in the neighborhood.”

If the city’s plan goes through, that might just happen. The city of Golden has been looking into purchasing a property at 395 23rd St. for about 15 years, said Steve Glueck, the city’s community and economic development director. And as of December, closing on the property is expected to happen. Formerly owned by longtime residents Virgil and Marguerite DeLong, who have since passed away, the property was listed with a Lakewood broker in early November at an asking price of $899,000. Staff believed the price to be somewhat high for the size of the parcel,

which is just under an acre, but wanted to submit a competitive offer. So City Manager Jason Slowinski offered $825,000 on Nov. 3. On Nov. 7, the estate attorney countered with $840,000 and a proposal that would accept the city as the buyer if the price was matched and the neighborhood park named after the DeLong family. The property went under contract that same day. City council unanimously approved the agreement on Nov. 9, and the second reading of it will occur during the Dec. 7 city council meeting. The DeLong property is .91 acres, but

with the bordering right-of-ways already owned by the city, the total comes to about 1 1/2 acres. Margaret Vera heard the city wanted to someday acquire the property when she moved to the area in 2005. She recently became involved with advocating for the park by keeping in touch with the city through emails and providing information to her neighbors. “Some of us do not have yards, and there’s not a neighborhood park around here,” Vera said. “So a lot of the kids play in the streets. We always have to put up precautionary measures.” SEE DELONG, P6

Making the Buffalo Rose ‘a better version of itself’ Community reflects on what venue means to them BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Mellissa Newton’s dream job would be to save the oceans. And to help her move toward that goal, she worked two jobs this past summer so she could pay a year’s rent in advance and fully dedicate herself to starting school. One of those jobs was bartending at the Buffalo Rose, the well-known and popular live-music venue in downtown Golden that closed Nov. 19 to undergo a remodel. It is expected to reopen in fall 2018. Newton and other employees, band members who play there regularly and longtime customers say they will miss the eclectic spot at 1119 Washington Ave., but the temporary stay in operations will be worth the wait, owner Chris Cone said. “The Buffalo Rose is a prominent place in downtown Golden,” said Cone, who bought the building in spring of 2015 knowing it would need redevelopment. “But we never wanted to change its business. . .We want it to be a better version of itself.” Historical aesthetics of the building will remain, and the venue will continue to serve as a restaurant, full bar and event venue. It will also have a private lounge area and an outdoor patio. What ties everything together, Cone said, will be the brand-new commercial kitchen. The venue has hosted live music since the mid-1980s, and will continue to do so, Cone said. But the music will cover a larger variety of genres and will be an independent, open venue. That means it will be able to book well-known, local talent in addition to working with outside promoters for other concerts. Cone also wants to expand to other kinds of programs, such as family game or seniors’ dance nights, and private events, such as gatherings for

The restaurant also will be renovated to serve gastropub food, which is a new take on classic American and Latin American dishes, Cone said. “It will hopefully become more of a community gathering place for the people of Golden, while remaining a tourist destination,” said Cheryl Ludford, financial controller for the Buffalo Rose. And Cone’s vision, said Golden resident Susette Miller, the venue’s front-of-the-house manager, is forward-thinking. “He does care, and he has the town of Golden’s best interest at heart,” she said. “I believe the remodeled Buffalo Rose is going to be more than amazing.” Community and band members are excited about the upcoming changes. Erinn Peet-Lukes, lead vocalist and guitarist for the local bluegrass pop band Thunder and Rain, admits she will miss the Buffalo Rose’s unique, quirky vintage charm. “But another part of me is excited — for the band,” she said. “Audiences enjoy being at

It would be good to have a variety of music there to utilize that big venue.” Friends Judeth Jensen of Arvada and Linda Jacobson of Evergreen meet at the Buffalo Rose for dinner and to socialize about once a month or so. They like its fun, Western atmosphere and its in-between meeting spot.

“We’ll miss the Golden experience,” Jensen said. “We can’t wait to come back when it reopens.” The Buffalo Rose attracts an eclectic mix of people — local residents, Coors employees, bikers and Mines students, among others, said Littleton’s Bill George, who has been performing at the Buffalo Rose for about 15 years as a solo performer on the patio and previously with a band called Fly Wheel. “I’m sorry to see it close,” said George, who hopes the bar will have him back to perform once the remodel is complete. “The patio has been my favorite gig. It always has a great feeling and a good vibe.” “It will be sadly missed during the renovation,” agreed Nancy Jurbala, a solo vocalist who has been coming to the Buffalo Rose with her husband John since the couple moved to Golden 27 years ago. “But we’re looking forward to the reopening.” Julie Johnson visited the Buffalo Rose on Nov. 13 to say goodbye — to the Buffalo Rose and Golden. She worked at the Buffalo Rose in the early 1990s, but recently bought property on the Western Slope and will be moving away before the Buffalo Rose reopens. “My heart’s broken. There’s so much history here,” Johnson said. “But I’m so happy to have been a part of the history. I wish them the best on the transition.”

Some of those measures include construction cones and plastic crossing guards to warn traffic that children are present, she said. “It would be amazing to have a park right down the street,” said neighborhood resident Cindy Tomlinson, who has a 4-year-old grandson and also babysits for other local families. However, the city needs to pay attention to possible overcrowding, such as too many people coming to the neighborhood from outside of its residential area to visit the park, Tomlinson said. And, she added, parking is limited in the area because of the narrow streets.

Plans for the park are still unknown, city staff said. Lisa Long has lived in the neighborhood for more than 30 years, and she is glad the property will not be divided and built on, she said. “There’s enough of that on this side of town,” Long said. Long does not want to see the land turned into a parking lot, retail space, housing complexes or “anything else bad,” she said. “I’d like to see it used as a benefit for the neighborhood.” People of all age demographics live in the area, Vera said, so she would like the park to be multigenerational. For example, playground equipment would be nice, but it also should have some amenities that adults would enjoy. “Something,” she said, “that brings the neighborhood together.”

As old-guard retailers shutter stores and lay off workers in the face of shifting consumer habits, Colorado municipalities are in a precarious position due to an unusual tax structure that depends mightily on retail sales taxes. Bryan Archer, the director of finance for the City of Arvada, said the strong economy may be temporarily masking the problem, and another economic downturn could have severe consequences for governments. “We are scared to death that as soon as everything slows down around here, our growth will be minuscule and we’ll lose tax base over time,” Archer said. “It could make it really difficult for cities to meet peoples’ needs.” Even amid a gangbusters Colorado and U.S. economy, with stocks soaring and unemployment at a 17-year low in October, recent years have not been kind to brick-and-mortar retailers. Brands like J.C. Penney, Sears, Macy’s and Gander Mountain have closed dozens of locations — including many in the metro area and across the state. Englewood-based Sports Authority

president and CEO of the South Metro Denver Chamber of Commerce, which represents more than 650 businesses across four counties. “The appeal of the mall and shopping has lost a lot of its zest for a lot of people.” Golden attributed the shift in part to what he calls the “middle-class squeeze” — housing and education costs have soared, and wages have largely failed to keep pace, eating up discretionary spending and pushing middle-class earners toward online bargains.

$6.6 billion, according to the National Retail Federation. Economists like Resnick and other Colorado experts, though, say that online shopping and shifting consumer habits may come to bear on municipal finances. As shoppers increasingly look to online retailers who can often skirt local sales taxes, the ripple effects of the so-called Retail Apocalypse may force governments — and citizens — to re-evaluate how they tax themselves.

went defunct last year. Englewood’s Kmart closes this month, leaving the Arvada store as the last metro area location. Nearly unique among states, Colorado towns and cities derive much of their operating revenues from locally imposed sales taxes, according to Phyllis Resnick, lead economist at the Colorado Futures Center, a Colorado State University-based think tank. The arrangement maintains local control and keeps property taxes low, but could portend fiscal disaster if current trends continue. The scope of the trend depends on whom you ask: A report from international financial services company Credit Suisse found that 8,640 stores would be closed nationwide by the end of 2017, eclipsing the 6,200 that closed in 2008 at the peak of the Great Recession. An industry analyst report, RetailNext Store Performance Pulse, found year-over-year store traffic declined 5.5 percent in July, continuing a long-term slide. However, industry analyst group IHL released a report in August reporting that retailers will open a net of 4,000 new locations in 2017. Black Friday — the deep-discount day at many retailers that follows Thanksgiving and kicks off the holiday shopping season — continues to vastly outpace Cyber Monday, its online alternative. Black Friday sales totaled more than $650 billion last year, compared to Cyber Monday’s

‘Working out the kinks’ of a school transition Shelton, Welchester welcome new students to school community

EDITOR’S NOTE

BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

In the neighborhoods near Shelton Elementary School, students and parents placed signs along the school’s bus routes in August to welcome new students on the first day of school. At Welchester Elementary School, students, teachers and staff made bus tags to hang on the children’s backpacks that identified which bus the student needed to get on, and at which bus stop they needed to get off at. “The biggest hiccup was transportation,” said Welchester Principal Bethany Robinson. “Pleasant View was a walking school, so a lot of the kids had never ridden the bus before. It was a learning curve, but now all the kinks have been worked out.” Pleasant View Elementary, 15920 W. 10th Ave., closed its doors May 23. The Jeffco Board of Education made the decision in February, citing low enrollment and aging building conditions among reasons for the closure. Enrollment at the school, built in 1950, was just under 225 students at the end of the school year — the low-

Welchester teacher Kira Jones works with Vinny Artese on trick words in her first-grade classroom in September. Class sizes at Welchester are only slightly larger than before, with the smallest having 18 students and the largest 25 students. CHRISTY STEADMAN est it had been since 2000. The school district’s records show that 276 students attended Pleasant View at some point during the last school year. Of those, 230 of them are now attending other Jeffco Public Schools this year. The majority are at Shelton, Welchester and Kyffin elementary schools in Golden. About 60 students are spread out among 30 other schools. And 23 students entered Bell Middle School.

Some 75 students are attending Shelton, 420 Crawford St., where total enrollment is 560, and about 50 students are at Welchester, 13000 W. 10th Ave., which has 309 students. “It was appropriate to welcome everybody,” said Shelton Principal Karen Brown, noting that the school enrolled 100 new students this year, not all of them from Pleasant View. “It’s always about doing what’s best for all the kids.”

This is the last in an occasional series about the closing of Pleasant View Elementary in Golden. The first story ran in October 2016, before the Jeffco Board of Education decided to shutter the school because of declining enrollment and aging buildings. Reporter Christy Steadman was there on students’ last day of school in May and as they made their way in August to new schools. She reported on how the transition affected not only Pleasant View staff, parents and students, which considered the school the heart of their community, but also on how their new communities at Welchester and Shelton elementaries, also in Golden, welcomed them. At first, Pleasant View students missed their old school, said fifth-grade teacher Faye Doverspike, who also transitioned from Pleasant View to Welchester. But children are resilient. “They have been incredibly flexible and open to change,” Doverspike said. And “they’ve all made new friends and found ways to fit into the community.” ‘They have risen to the occasion’ Pleasant View was a Title I school — because a high percentage of the students came from low-income families, it received additional financial assistance to ensure academic

Raising four children on one’s own is challenging — and it’s unaccountably more difficult without a place to live. Marissa, who did not want her last name used for privacy reasons, remembers the struggles all too well, even though she finally just moved into a place of her own in Arvada. “For a while, I was living with my grandmother, but that was a bad situation, and then lived with an aunt,” she said. “Then I was living in the Volunteers of America Family Motel for a while, and then was recommended to try here.” The “here” is Marisol Homes, Jefferson County’s newest homeless shelter, which provides a home for homeless women and domestic violence survivors and their children. Operated by the Catholic Charities of Denver, Marisol has several locations in the metro area, as well as Greeley and

Marisol Homes relies on donations and volunteers to provide its services. With so many women and children in one place, the basic needs include groceries, laundry soap and other necessities. Residents go through five to six gallons of milk a day, which ends up costing about $3,600 a year. Gift cards and financial donations are always welcome, as are volunteers to help with child care and cooking. The Child Care Tax Credit allows those who donate to take a 50 percent tax credit on their state income taxes when they give to Marisol Homes or Catholic Charities’ Early Childhood Education programs. During the holidays, there are extra options to help out. People can adopt families for the holidays, which allows the family to receive needed items and toys — a chance for a Christmas they wouldn’t have otherwise. Walmart gift cards are also in demand, since they allow the mothers to buy their own gifts. For more information, visit www.ccdenver. org/marisol-homes. And, to donate, volunteer, or if you are in need of services, call 720-799-9400 or email mhomes@marisolservices.com.

Fort Collins. “Marisol is supposed to be the last stop before getting into stable living,” said Nissa LaPoint, content marketing manager with The Catholic Alliance. “The assistance we provide aims to stop all the jumping, and help with things like income and savings.” The new Lakewood facility has been taking in families for more than year. During much of that time, the location, formerly a Catholic convent, has been fully renovated for more than 20 mothers and their children. The facility has a full-service kitchen, classrooms and play areas for children and teenagers. It is open to women who are 18 years and older, who are pregnant or have children. The children can be up to 17 years old if they’re girls or 12 years old for boys. “We make sure they have things like an income, identification of some kind, birth certificate, Social Security card, and run a background check,” said Amy Eurek, program director at the Lakewood home. “Once they’re accepted to our program, we focus on four things — financial health, housing, parenting and family and community support.” Women who are admitted are assigned a case worker. It’s difficult to be financially stable or find employment if a mother’s health is poor,

Eurek said. Marisol also helps connect women to other charities and service organizations. Many of the women and their children are victims of domestic violence, so Marisol provides trauma care and other counselling needs. Children are required to be enrolled in school, and mothers spend the hours from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the community working on goals like finding employment and housing. “Accomplishing something in any of the four primary areas are tricky,” Eurek said. “Not everyone has their own transportation. So you have to imagine what little time they have when everything is scheduled around the bus. Imagine doing everything you need to get ready for the day, and doing it on a bus.” Marisol’s help doesn’t end once the mothers find a home and a job. The organization has an alumni program in which caseworkers check in and help with skills such as staying on a budget and building a support group with their new neighbors and friends. “Those big successes are great, but it’s the little successes along the way that are my favorite part,” Eurek said. “The small successes add up to a big difference for these families.” Marissa and her children are setting up in their new home, and she is ready to face the challenges ahead. “For any other woman who is thinking about coming here, I would tell them to stick at it and be patient,” she said. “It’s not all about you — it’s about your kids. You just have to be positive.”

VOICES

Way down under a lot of wrapping, the core of Christmas is still there QUIET DESPERATION

f you are full of kringle and nog, I don’t want to bring my wet blanket into it very far, even though it’s tempting. The Christmas season once lasted a week or two. Then a month. Now it’s two months. (And if you watch Craig Marshall home shopping channels, it’s six months.) Smith Christmas music in November is wrong. I can avoid it in my home. I can’t avoid it in stores. Everyone in America does not celebrate Christmas.

Everyone in America who celebrates Christmas does not celebrate it in the same way. Moneymakers aren’t interested in the illusion of rationality. However, I was delighted to hear that Black Friday is losing its mojo. I am happy for the employees, mostly, who have had to work at odd hours just to serve ravenous appetites for deep discounts on must-have electronics and peeing dolls. Beneath my gruff exterior is a gruff interior. Beneath my gruff interior is a soft spot for memories, and a wistfulness about some things that have been diminished through the manipulations of others — to an extreme. I am old enough to know that’s how

we do things around here. Some weddings, for example. The national average for a wedding day in 2016 was $35,329, according to Fortune magazine. The typical cost to have a justice of the peace marry you is $50 to $100. I may have told this story before. Aging leads to redundancy. But it’s the best Christmas memory I have. We drove Santa Claus home in a Buick. My father sold Buicks in Uniontown, Penn., in the early 1950s. There was a Christmas parade. I wish I had photographs. I am sure it was simple and sweet and half-Frank Capra and half-Diane Arbus. I rode up front in a convertible, next

to my father, and Santa was in the back seat. He waved at everyone, and threw candies. He hit one kid in the forehead. When the time came, Santa said, “Please take me home.” My father said, “OK, Ed, uh, Santa.” Santa lived a couple of blocks from us. I wish I had kept a journal. This would have been my entry that night. “I had the time of my life tonight. There I was, in a Buick Skylark with Santa. He looked like he had lost some weight. Maybe the holiday stress. He smelled a little funny, too. I can’t put my finger on it, but it might have been Maker’s Mark.” SEE HOLIDAYS, P13

Let’s debate tax plan Thanks to the newspaper for fostering our community’s debate on Issues. This response is to last week’s partisan letter about a federal tax cut.

First, there is no certainty as to what this means to this overly large government’s necessary functions. The idea behind it is: Tax Relief for most all Americans and growth in what this government collects to support its wants at a fraction of the costs of President Obama’s eight-year increases to our national debt. For a community member like myself, the first $24,000 exemption of income was over half the salary I was offered to start teaching in Jeffco schools in 2010-2011. Coming to that district with 24 years teaching experience, a master’s degree and over 50 hours of CEU credits, this is a greater relief for new outof-college teachers starting in our schools. This should be a bigger consideration in Colorado today, especially with teacher retirement suggested changes (to PERA) to be considered next session. Tax cuts are a necessary direct result of our congresses continuing to do nothing but taxing us all more. The only people that should count on minimal increases in tax refund checks are those in our community that can afford to let the feds keep their monies until refund time. Consider it a fact that 50 percent of all corporate taxes are paid by workers. This is a political partisan fight between parties, but workingpoor Americans really need their taxes adjusted.

Fan of farm article It was gratifying to see your article on farming. My wife and I have children and grandchildren who are ranchers. I have worked on a farm myself in my younger days. The general public has no idea how hard farmers and ranchers really work. Even when saying grace, usually the servers and cooks are included, but almost never the farmers and ranchers. This is where the real work happens and to whom we owe the greatest level of thanks. These are folks who almost never get the one- or two-week vacation we enjoy. The work knows no fixed hours, and the animals do not recognize holidays or weather-related days off work. Not only do their children have school and homework, they also have real work on their farm or ranch. Though it may be hard to believe, there are actually city folks who do not know that you have to butcher a cow in order to get a steak, really! There is no factory that produces meat and vegetables. The next time you are saying grace, remember the hard-working people who really provided the meal. Bill Hineser, Arvada

They don’t whine or make excuses. • Skilled in lateral thinking — Warriors find a way to succeed. They are always looking for different solutions to achieve their goal.

Much later in life, when I was reevaluating Natalie Wood’s life and death — among other things — I drank my way through Decembers. The month had turned into an inexplicable monster, no longer enjoyable. I drowned out the sounds of it.

They know it takes the same amount of energy to think big as it does to think small. Why have limiting thoughts on what you can accomplish? • Conﬁdent — Warriors are extremely comfortable in their own skin. They know who they are and what they’re about. They use this confidence to increase their power and influence and boldly move forward. If you want to get the maximum from any situation, you need a warrior. Warriors are skilled in entering a situation knowing what they want in advance of any discussions.

Wood was 31 when she made “Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice,” a very different kind of film than “Miracle on 34th Street.” Twelve years later, Wood died, and the cause is still in question. Her life went from Santa’s knee to a Catalina Island boat trip, and in between the waters were choppy, like they are for most of us. Do you want to know a secret? Every December, I watch one of those two films. Guess. Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident. He can be reached at craigmarshallsmith@comcast.net.

exploring possibilities, the warrior is oftentimes able to return with far better deals and much more current information. Additionally, the warrior now has a personal relationship with the other party that can be used again should the need arise. Besides being skilled at taking care of themselves, warriors are loyal to their leaders/organization. They speak their truth and are very comfortable standing up for what they believe in and what is “right.” They are loyal to the cause, impeccable in their actions, and they love the action of the negotiation/ battle. They thrive on the challenge. They employ everything available to succeed and return to home base having accomplished their mission.

Raising the

Alcohol adds some flavor to coffee shops BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

When Kyle Gammage is behind the bar at The Bluegrass Coffee and Bourbon in Olde Town Arvada, he sees three kinds regulars — those who come in for their morning coffee, those who come in for a happy hour drink and a bite, and those who just hang out all day. That’s the benefit of a coffee bar business — there’s something for someone all day. “It’s all about the atmosphere here, which is different than a traditional coffee shop,” said Gammage, coffee manager at The Bluegrass, 7415 Grandview Ave. “There’s a little more camaraderie here than you get with the bar vibes.” Coffee bars blend two craft cultures — coffee and alcohol, such as beer, wine and whiskey. Both scenes include people who

are passionate about their beverages and are looking for the best quality and local purveyors. “When I first started, I worked with a local winery to offer those kinds of options to our customers,” said Shawn Manzanares, owner of Highlands Cork and Coffee, 3701 W. 32nd Ave., Denver. “People just like the ability to drink alcohol at a coffee place.” The Bluegrass and Highlands Cork are just two examples of a model that is spreading throughout the metro area — Black Eye (LoHi), Drip (Denver), Thump (Denver) and Jake’s Brew Bar (Littleton) are also serving coffee and alcohol, which is something Starbucks has experimented with as well.

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SCOTCH, WHISKEY AND BOURBON When it comes to the difference between scotch, whiskey and bourbon, it’s both geographic and about ingredients. Whiskey is defined as a type of distilled alcoholic beverage made from various fermented grain mashes, including barley, rye, wheat and corn. It is usually aged in wooden casks. Scotch is whiskey made in Scotland, while bourbon is whiskey made in the U.S., usually Kentucky. Scotch is made mostly from malted barley, while bourbon is distilled from corn. Source: Liquor.com

t’s always better to catch your favorite musicians at a concert in a small venue — the smaller the better. It provides a feeling of intimacy, of communing directly with the artist. One of the best venues in the metro area to see some local artists, and national musicians who are starting to break into the scene, is the Hi-Dive, located at 7 S. Broadway. At 8 p.m. Nov. 24, the venue is celCOMING to simultaATTRACTIONS ebrating neous milestones at its Fifth and 14th Anniversary Party. The concert is in honor of 14 years of the Hi-Dive, and five years under its current ownership. “When I used to play in punk bands in my teens around Clarke Reader Denver, I always said owning and booking my own music venue was my dream job,” said Curtis Wallach, owner of the Hi-Dive. “And it still is, even though the reality of it is far different than I assumed it would be.” The show features six bands: Ned Garthe Explosion, Sleep Union, Extra Gold, Slynger, Really Good Bad Boy Club and Five Mile Woods. Their genres are as eclectic as their names imply. Extra Gold is influenced by honky tonk and outlaw country, while Slynger blends surf rock with folk and alternative sounds. You never know what you’re going to find at the Hi-Dive, and that’s something worth celebrating. “The bands are indicative of the diversity of Hi-Dive’s overall calendar,” Wallach said. “We love the folks who love us. They’re a great group to party with.” Support local artists, burgeoning school band High school marching band is often a first, and all important, foray for budding musicians into live performance, working as a team and honing their craft.

thrive on the relationships with their customers, and visiting The Bluegrass during any given morning finds the barista greeting customers by name and asking about their weekend. “Obviously, there’s more people looking for coffee in the morning, but we do have some ready for a Kentucky Coffee right when we open,” Gammage said. The Kentucky Coffee is one of The Bluegrass’ specialties, made with Benchmark Bourbon, Kahlua, steamed milk, espresso, Buffalo Trace Bourbon Cream, and topped off with whipped cream. “It’s actually really great to be part of someone’s morning routine,” he said. One of those customers who make the coffee bar a regular stop is Tom Robinson, who works at the nearby School House and Kitchen. “It’s cool that I can make my coffee alcoholic on a whim,” he said with a laugh, as he waited for Gammage to make his drink. “Olde Town is a great place for coffee, but this is where I always come. It’s really one of my favorite places in the area.”

Liturgical calendar plays a role in arc of poems Stephanie Harper’s book covers works she created from 2012-14 BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

What We Are “We are all water. We are cells and vapor. We are the earth, the sky, the heat at the center, and the cold in faraway reaches, the ones that lie in darkness. We are made of stars.” — Stephanie Harper Local poet Stephanie Harper, who has just Stephanie Harper of published her first book of poetry, “Sermon Littleton has recently Series,” says the poems were written in 20122014, in response to sermons and worship expublished her first periences, “organized sort of chronologically book of poetry, … (related to) the trajectory of the Lutheran “Sermon Series.” PHOTO BY KCOLBY PHOTOGRAPHY liturgical calendar.” Sections are: “Expecta-

tion, Epiphanies and Expression.” She also speaks of response to growing up in Colorado, with experiences in the natural world — which came through clearly to this reader. (See above example.) And she speaks of influences from parents, aunts and uncles. Her dad is a Colorado native. Harper, a Littleton resident, is a graduate of Dakota Ridge High School who received her bachelor’s degree in English from the University of Colorado in 2009 and an MFA in creative writing from Fairfield University in Connecticut in 2012. Describing her graduate study experience as “a good set-up for writing,” she says she focused on fiction for her degree, and worked with a “local residency,” which allowed her to spend time mostly in Colorado. Her major focus was on fiction. Clearly involved in the rhythms of her poetry is a love of singing. “Music is a big hobby.” She sings at her church, Abiding Hope Lutheran, and elsewhere, and has “dabbled” with songwriting-lyrics. “I’m not instrumentally proficient.”

Harper is a freelance editor and writer who works at home, with a particular fondness for editing manuscripts for authors, for publication or self-publication. She also works with academic copy on websites. Days are filled with “writing, thinking, editing …” Currently working on a personal memoir and “trying to create a novel,” she likes to set a goal of 1,000 words a day for her own work, although she says she’s “not huge on goals, putting pressure on myself …” The memoir deals with health issues — for four years, she has had an ongoing headache. With family nearby, she is involved with babysitting, her sisters’ husky and other draws, as well as her own creative process and editing jobs. She has participated in an authors’ event at the Book Bar in Denver’s lively Berkley area (44th and Tennyson) and the book is available from Amazon or her publisher, Finishing Line Press in Georgetown, Kentucky. She’s hoping for opportunities of involvement in workshops and readings.

Consumer safety group unveils its ‘worst toys’ list ASSOCIATED PRESS

Fidget spinners, a plastic Wonder Woman battle sword and a remote-controlled Spider-Man drone are among the toys topping a consumer safety group’s annual list of worst toys for the holidays. World Against Toys Causing Harm, or WATCH, unveiled the top 10 list Nov. 14 at a Boston children’s hospital. The nonprofit organization has been releasing the lists for more than four decades to inform consumers about potential toy hazards. The Toy Association, an industry trade group, dismissed the list as “needlessly frightening’’ to parents because all toys sold in the U.S. meet “rigorous’’ safety standards. It also criticized the organization for not testing the toys it focuses on. National toy safety standards are ``inadequate,’’ as can been seen by the high number of recalls each year, WATCH President Joan Siff said. The nonprofit says there have been at least 15 recalls representing nearly 2 million units of dangerous toys since last December. Siff stressed the toys named each year have common hazards that the group sees year after year. She pointed to the “Pull Along Pony’’ by Tolo Toys that’s marketed for children over age 1

but has a 19-inch cord. “We don’t need a testing lab to know that’s a strangulation and entanglement hazard,’’ she said. With consumers increasingly doing their holiday shopping online, it’s more important than ever to have the most current information about the safety of a toy online, Siff said. For example, Hallmark’s Disneythemed “Itty Bittys’’ plush stacking toy for babies was recalled over the summer due to fabric pieces that posed a choking hazard. But the toy still is readily available online because many web sales — particularly consumer-to-consumer and secondhand transactions — are rarely monitored for recalls, Siff noted. Among the other toys that made this year’s list is Nerf ’s “Zombie Strike’’ crossbow, which the organization says poses the risk of eye and face injuries because it uses a pressurized, pull back lever to shoot soft projectiles. Razor’s “Heel Wheels’’ are strapped onto children’s shoes to turn them into improvised roller skates but pose a burn risk because they include “real sparking action.’’ And “Slackline’’ is a tightrope-like device by Brand 44 meant to be anchored between two trees that WATCH says can lead to severe injury and death.

SCHOOL FROM PAGE 8

success for all students. And because of the students who came from Pleasant View, Welchester retained Title I status this school year. Pleasant View’s preschool, which had about 60 students among its three classrooms, was also closed. Shelton does not have a preschool, but this year Welchester’s preschool expanded from one classroom that accommodates 16 students to two classrooms that offer full- and half-day sessions. Thirty-two kids attend Welchester’s preschool this year. “We’re still working, but overall, it’s been a successful transition — given the circumstances of closing a school,” Robinson said. “We’re just trying to be aware and responsive to the needs and feelings of all of our new students and families.” Class sizes at Shelton are slightly larger than in years past, Brown said. Kindergarten through fourth-grade classes average between 26 and 28 students, and the fifth- and sixth-grade class sizes average between 23 and 25 students. At Welchester, among the kindergarten through sixth-grade classes, the smallest classroom has 18 students, and the largest classroom has 25 students, Robinson said. Teachers and staff have come together help ensure each child’s success, Brown said, whether it be academic, social or behavioral. “They have really risen to the occasion,” Brown said. Faye Doverspike, a former teacher from Pleasant View, now teaches fifth grade at Welchester. She is glad she made the decision to transition over. “It’s been really nice to have familiar faces around,” Doverspike said. At the beginning of the school year, students from Pleasant View seemed to miss their school a lot, but they have been resilient, Doverspike said. “They have been incredibly flexible and open to change,” she said. And “they’ve all made new friends and found ways to fit into the community.” During the first few weeks of school, which started Aug. 17, both schools focused on getting-toknow-each-other activities, making new friends and building relationships, the principals said. “We’re off to a good start,” said Susan KimesDemboski, the family engagement liaison at Shelton, a position she also held at Pleasant View. “And we still have a lot of things yet to come.” Schools share some programs All the students pitched in to help show the new students around and be friendly to each one of them, said Jasmine Chang, a fifth-grader at Shelton who has been attending the school her whole life. “The best thing about having all the new kids is all the new friends that I was able to make,” she said. Fifth-grader River Hebein now attends Welchester, and she has some friends from Pleasant View who are now also attending Welchester. She has made some new friends with her classmates, too, she said. “I like that there’s a lot of new people to meet,” Hebein said, “and a lot of new teachers, too.” One difference she noticed between the two schools is the size. “Pleasant View was big, but I feel like this one is bigger,” she said. Her mother, Elizabeth Hebein, said they haven’t attended Welchester long enough yet to fully experience the school, but does miss the togetherness she felt at Pleasant View. “They made everybody feel like they were a part of something,” she said. “You always felt like you were involved.” At Welchester, PTA membership is better this year than it has been for over the past five years, Robinson said, which is great for the school community. “We are able to offer more when we partner together,” she said. “Plus, teachers feel validated when parents are involved.” Parent involvement at Shelton is about the same as in years past, Brown said, but Demboski pointed

The festival’s Janus Henderson Investors Student Art Buying Program provides students the opportunity to purchase artwork as a permanent installation for their school. The other students involved were sixth-grader Will Lacey and first-grader Caleb Griffin. PHOTOS BY CHRISTY STEADMAN

PLEASANT VIEW ELEMENTARY BUILDING MEETING Jeffco Public Schools is hosting a community meeting on the future of the Pleasant View property from 5:30-7 p.m. Dec. 5 at Pleasant View Elementary School, 15920 W. 10th Ave., in Golden. Attendees of the open meeting can provide input on the future of the property. Superintendent Dr. Jason Glass will head the meeting. Refreshments will be served, and childcare and interpreters are available. For more information, call 303-982-6800. out some parents who did not volunteer at Pleasant View are doing so at Shelton. The Parent Academy, a successful Pleasant View program that offers opportunities for parent involvement and engagement, had its kickoff meeting at Shelton on Oct. 23, and it’s already generating interest, Demboski said. Building new bonds The new students, Demboski said, seem to be happy and adjusting well. “The transition has given all the kids the opportunity to be open to change,” she said, “and work through challenges together as a united classroom and school community.” Nickey Brumbaugh feels the transition to Shelton from Pleasant View has gone well for herself and daughter Kenzie Hill, who is in the fourth grade. “The size of the school and not having the same sense of community that Pleasant View had has been something to get used to,” Brumbaugh said, but added that everyone at Shelton has been kind and helpful. The new students are adjusting quickly to learning new routines and rules, Brumbaugh said. One

Jennifer Barrett, a parent volunteer at Welchester Elementary School, interacts with third-grader Hannah Pitts during lunch. About 50 students from Pleasant View are attending Welchester this year, and PTA membership is higher at the school than it has been in five years. thing that has helped her daughter, in particular, is that her teacher is also from Pleasant View. “So they share that bond,” Brumbaugh said. Brumbaugh was involved at Pleasant View in a number of ways, and continues to stay involved at Shelton. She is volunteering with the yearbook as photographer, is in charge of kindergarten snack twice a week, does reading groups with the fourth-graders and helps out at recess. She is also joining the Parent Academy. “I love seeing how happy and engaged the kids are,” Brumbaugh said. “We’re building new friendships and, hopefully, bringing some Pleasant View traditions to Shelton.”

championships at the Denver Coliseum and realized change is needed. On Nov. 13, the committee unanimously recommended a bracket format starting for next year’s tournament and that proposal will go to the Legislative Council for their approval in January. If approved it would mean no more pool play, an extra day of the tournament and all classifications would use a modified double elimination format sometimes referred to as the Olympic Crossover Bracket. That means no more tiebreakers, meaningless matches when a team has already secured a semifinal berth, and the possibility that sessions can start on time instead of the finals starting an hour and 40 minutes after the scheduled start, which happened on Nov. 11. I was at the Coliseum for over 12 hours on Nov. 11 before Castle View

finally wrapped up the Class 5A title. With the new proposal, the top four seeds in each class would receive firstround byes with seeds No. 5-12 playing in the first matches. Winners would advance to battle the top four seeds while the first round losers drop into the contenders’ brackets but would still have a chance to advance to the semifinals. The bracket, a sample of which can be found online at CHSAANow. com, becomes single-elimination in the semifinals, which differs from the double-elimination format used in the baseball playoffs. The volleyball committee’s proposal is something else to be thankful for. Jim Benton is a sports writer for Colorado Community Media. He has been covering sports in the Denver area since 1968.

RETAIL FROM PAGE 7

The trouble is that many online retailers don’t collect sales tax on behalf of municipalities, Resnick said. “We’ve said we have to solve this problem before it solves us,” Resnick said. Some online retailers, such as Amazon, have agreed to impose sales tax on purchases, based on the shipping address of the recipient, Resnick said. However, the agreement doesn’t apply to Amazon’s third-party vendors. The company says it hosts more than 100,000 vendors who do more than $100,000 each in sales annually, amounting to more than $10 billion a year. Resnick said online retailers are hesitant to enter into taxing agreements in places like Colorado, where the patchwork of taxing authorities could land sellers in hot water with auditors. “Another part is the tradition that we don’t tax the internet,” Resnick said. “People start to think it’s a tax increase. Technically the purchaser is liable to pay local sales tax, but the state has not enforced that. At the local level, each city would have to.” Multiply the number of online retailers by the number of municipalities and the scope of the dilemma becomes clear, Resnick said. Resnick and her team run models that examine the state’s financial sustainability in coming decades based on current trends, and present possible scenarios to address problems. “We’ve looked at the possibility of taxing services,” Resnick said. “Services don’t migrate online. Fixing your house, cleaning your pool —

SMALL BUSINESS SATURDAY ON ITS WAY For those looking to keep their money local this holiday season, the national Small Business Administration touts Small Business Saturday, which encourages shoppers to patronize small businesses in their area on the Saturday after Thanksgiving, which also happens to be the day after Black Friday. This year, the day falls on Nov. 25. The SBA published the

following tips for putting your money where your heart is: • Commit to making at least one purchase from a locally owned small business retailer. Get to know the owner, and make your gift more meaningful by sharing their story as part of what you give your loved ones. • Enjoy the experience. Travel outside your comfort zone — and

those can’t dry up like brick and mortar stores can.” Resnick said another contributing factor of the Retail Apocalypse is an aging society. As people have fewer children and the age of the general populace climbs, spending on material goods drops. Service taxes would make sense under such conditions, she said. “The only other places to generate revenue would be

“(Tax reform efforts will) have to be organic and come from the citizens,” Archer said. “They’ll need to want better roads or parks.” Amazon’s agreement to collect sales taxes for cities is helping, but it doesn’t fix the problem. “I’d love to say it’s problem solved, but Amazon isn’t even 20 percent of the online market,” Archer said.

rare approach of taxing groceries, Archer said, which has softened the blow. “We have five King Soopers and multiple Safeways,” Archer said. “People still buy groceries here even though they threaten not to.” Government budgets in Colorado are already tightly constrained by the TABOR amendment, Archer said, with funding for education and other government services already anemic despite a robust economy. TABOR — the Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights — was enacted in 1992, and it sets a cap on government spending and requires a popular vote for tax increases. The shift toward online retail could have further fallout as the impact comes to bear on the labor market, Resnick said. Nationally, the retail sector has lost jobs every month in 2017, according to Bureau of Labor Statistics data. The bright side It’s not all bad news, said Golden, of the South Metro Chamber, which is based at the Streets at SouthGlenn shopping center in Centennial. “You can’t find a parking spot on weekends,” Golden said of the shopping center. “Small retailers, those with something unique to sell, can do very well. They have less overhead, less expense and less inventory.” Millennials increasingly seek out localized lifestyles, where they can obtain the necessities of life without having to travel far, Golden said. “I believe there will always be a place for the small shop,” Golden said. “As long as people like walking down the street and popping into stores, they should survive.”
