gram, the volunteer programs in area senior centers, government agencies and more.

Faith drives service to community About me I’m a Colorado native for 71 years and graduate of Thornton High School in 1964. Most of the past 60 years I’ve lived in or near Thornton. Deza Estates (99th and Huron) where I lived in 1956, was the first subdivision outside old Thornton and north of the Boulder Turnpike. I like the closeness to the mountains and our wonderful seasons. I have been here for all but three years when I was doing service as a naval officer in the early 70’s in San Diego. My only family nearby is a stepmom and stepsister, everyone else is now out of state. I’ve always liked baseball which seemed to come pretty naturally. At Thornton High School we went to the final four of the state tournament and four of us were selected as all-state honorable mention. (Delta beat us, then beat Englewood to win the tournament in 1964.) More than a job I’ve been the Program Director for the Retired and Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) at Senior Hub for Adams and East Arapahoe Counties for the past 18 years. Incidentally, I think of it more as my personal area of ministry,

Tom Rapp leads the Retired and Senior Volunteer Program for Senior Hub and for him, it’s a matter of faith. SCOTT TAYLOR not just a job. While I don’t use it as a platform for discussion, but I do hope that my service is a credit to the one I serve. Working with over 600 wonderful senior volunteers from 55- to 99-yearsold and seeing all the wonderful help they provide to individuals and organizations across Adams and eastern Arapahoe Counties. After 26 years in Adams 12 as a teacher and middle school assistant principal, I decided it was time to make a move. Senior Hub was looking for someone initially to assist in their Senior Solutions Department and, in about a year, to take over as the RSVP Department Director.

I’ve started several programs in RSVP locally, like the Adams Community Garden CO-OP – which covers different community gardens – the Senior Veterans Companionship Squads, a second and third grade Tutor/ Mentor Reading Assistance Program in four local school districts and 12 elementary schools. We also continue helping with our other senior volunteer focuses: Our original school volunteer program, Meals on Wheels, In-Home Care, Adult Day Service, Senior Solutions and helping with 12 food banks, helping with four hospital volunteer programs.

Family and faith I just finished reading “A Layman Looks at the Lord’s Prayer.” My faith has made all the difference. I would love to have been present when Jesus spoke the Sermon on the Mount. It’s a favorite section in the Bible. My wife and I have led a home Bible study group for 15 years. I enjoy mountain drives with my wife, playing the piano, helping with our community garden co-op project through RSVP. Our garden co-op donates over four tons of fresh produce every year to local food banks. My wife and I love traveling by car. We’ve gone to Florida a couple of times, Iowa and Wisconsin several times, California several times, and Texas yearly, mostly to visit with our kids and grandkids and other family members. I love the Peak to Peak Highway and Estes Park. I enjoy home gardening, songwriting and piano. Most people don’t know that I play the piano to relax and unwind. If I could relive a decade, I’d choose: The 70’s because it was when I met and married my wife Jean (44 years) and it was when our two kids were born and it has been a joy and privilege watching them become the special people they are today with families and exciting jobs of their own.

Accused Walmart killer faces charges Police claim Scott Ostrem is shown in this photograph, entering the Thornton Walmart Nov. 1 just before he took a handgun out of his pocket and opened fire, killing three.

BY SCOTT TAYLOR STAYLOR@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Scott Ostrem, the man Thornton Police say shot up Thornton’s Town Center Walmart Nov. 1, faces two counts of murder each for the three people killed as well as 30 counts of attempted murder for people in the store at the time of the shooting. District Court Judge Ted C. Tow read the charges filed by the Adams County District Attorney’s office Monday afternoon – six counts of murder and 30 counts of attempted murder plus a charge of violent crimes. Overall, Ostrem faces the death penalty in the Nov. 1 shooting. Ostrem is accused of walking into the 9900 Grant St. Walmart just after 6 p.m. Nov. 1, calmly taking a handgun out of his pocket and opening fire. Three people were killed in the shooting; 66-year-old Carlos Moreno, of Thornton, 26-year-old Victor Vasquez of Denver and Pamela Marques, 52, of Denver. Then, according to police, Ostrem walked back out of the store, got into his car and drove away. Tow said Ostrem faces two different kinds murder charges for each victim – a charge of murder after deliberation and a charge of murder with extreme indifference. Each carries an ultimate penalty of death. He also faces 30 charges of attempted murder with extreme indifference,

a class 2 felony. Each count carries a mandatory sentence of up to 22 years. The final count calls for a mandatory sentence for violent crimes that could boost the attempted murder sentences up to 48 years each. District Attorney Dave Young also filed a motion to keep the names of those 30 potential victims sealed. Judge Tow set a preliminary hearing for 9 a.m. Feb. 5. ‘Mass chaos’ Victor Avila, the public information officer for the Thornton Police, described the scene as mass chaos when the responded three minutes later.

rived at the scene of the shooting, that made it a complicated scene to control. “When (you) are talking about people running in all directions, you don’t know who is good and who is bad,” Avila said. “It would be very easy for someone to bed down and become a victim while they were truly an assailant. So we had to search the whole area, and that included the parking lot.” Detectives located a Walmart employee and began reviewing surveillance footage right away, but that work was complicated by the number of people in the store at the time. “It was mass chaos in there,” Avila said. “If the surveillance ever becomes available, you’ll see that there

Carlos Moreno: https://www.gofundme.com/ CarlosMorenoFund Pamela Marques: https://www.gofundme. com/pam-marques Victor Vasquez: https://www.gofundme.com/ victor-vasquez were people running everywhere. That’s truly what took the longest amount of time - being able to decipher exactly what we had.” Avila said there were armed citizens on the scene as well, which further slowed their work. “In the surveillance, we saw people holding something that appeared to be a gun,” Avila said. “So, we had to follow that person all through the store.” Police had to watch the tapes and track those people to make sure they were not involved in the shooting. Using the surveillance footage, police were able to identify Ostrem at about 10:30 p.m. and his car, a red 2017 Mitsubishi Mirage, as well as his address. They published his name, photo and description via social media at about 11 p.m. and obtained a search SEE CHARGES, P5

Community Reach Center oﬀers counseling, tips BY COMMUNITY REACH CENTER SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

Community Reach Center extends its condolences to the victims’ families and all individuals affected by the recent tragedy in Thornton. We are here to help anyone who is struggling emotionally because of this and other recent events by offering suggestions on how to stay healthy and gain proper support and resources. It is common to experience a variety of strong reactions to tragedy, and it’s important to remember that you don’t need to go through it alone. The first step is to reach out to those you trust and love for support such as family members, friends, co-workers, neighbors and spiritual advisors. By reaching out, you take an important step in the healing process not only for you, but for the people you reach out to, by demonstrating that it’s okay to talk about tragedy. Children When talking to children, explain the facts of the situation in a manner

appropriate for their age. Let them talk about fears, but don’t force them to talk if they don’t want to. It can be helpful to restrict your child’s media exposure around a tragic event so as not to traumatize them with disturbing images and descriptions. That goes for adults, also. Reassure them that these tragedies are not common and that they are safe to carry out normal routines and activities such as going to school and playing with friends. It’s important to try and maintain normal family routines, however it may be helpful to give your child a flexible bedtime or allow them to sleep with you to help them feel secure. Encourage children to talk about confusing feelings, worries, daydreams and disruptions of concentration. Tell them that these are normal reactions. Some children may be hesitant to talk about their feelings, so you may want to ask what your child has heard and how they feel about it. If the child says that she doesn’t want to talk about it, that’s okay. Give her time.

warrant for his 7121 Samuel Drive address. Police searched Ostrem’s residence, but he was not there. He did drive by, however, while police and media camped nearby watched, and police followed him to the intersection of 72nd Avenue and Federal Boulevard in Westminster. “The officers were right on his tail as they saw him coming by,” police department spokesperson Victor Avila said. “Fortunately, we had a traffic light that was there, and traffic was backed up because obviously, we were in the middle of traffic-time. So he did not have the opportunity to be able to leave if that was what he chose.” Police took Ostrem into custody at about 8 a.m. Nov. 2. Victims Police said the two men Ostrem is accused of killing, Moreno and Vasquez, died at the scene. Moreno was a father and grandfather from Clovis, New Mexico who called Thornton home. Vasquez was the father of two young girls who was expecting a third child with his fiancee.

Physical health A common pitfall is to set aside your physical health during times of high stress and load up on “comfort food” that’s high in fat, sodium and sugar. Research tells us that we’ll actually manage symptoms of stress much better by eating well rounded meals and engage in physical activity daily. Aim to increase your intake of vitamin B and C as well as foods high in calcium because these nutrients are essential to your body during times of stress. It’s best to avoid excessive use of alcohol and caffeine. In the aftermath of a traumatic event, many people experience sense of fear, uncertainty, apprehension, and anxiety, which can sometimes be brought on by a strong need for information and answers that are not yet available. Many feel powerless, depressed or irritable from an unrequited need to make sense of the situation. Sometimes these feelings can interfere with your ability to concentrate on tasks and also disrupt sleep. It’s important to remind yourself that the symptoms you or others

Police said Marques was taken to the hospital but later died. Marques was a mother and grandmother who grew up in the Denver-area and attended Adams City High School. Facebook lists her employer as Tharco, a Denver maker of packing goods. Families and friends of all three victims have created Go Fund Me fundraisers on the web Neither police or prosecutors have discussed a motive or if the suspect acted alone. “No motive has been established, but we did just get our suspect,” said Matt Barnes, department spokesman said on Nov 3. “So, we are hoping that something further will come out soon.” Patience Mayor Heidi Williams said she was on the scene until about midnight Wednesday. She applauded officers and Walmart employees for keeping control of the scene. “I know it was frustrating because it took a long time, but the officers did their job,” she said. “There were steps to follow and they didn’t want to jump the gun. They wanted to catch him, and they did. So, overall, the best thing we can do is to stay out of the way.” The Walmart store was closed on Nov. 2, according to a member of the management team who declined to identify himself, but employees were gathering in the front of the store at about 9:30 a.m. for a staff meeting.

Tradition marches on for Legacy champions BY SCOTT TAYLOR STAYLOR@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Legacy High School marching band continued to dominate on a state level, winning their tenth 5A championship Oct. 28 in Colorado Springs in 12 years. Band Director Clay Stansberry credited a consistent support system for the student musicians with their success again in 2017. “We have great collaboration and support from everybody involved, from the community to our administration here,” Stansberry said. “The teachers in school, the district-level administrators and even the students here and the community at large. They’ve been great.” Legacy qualified for the state competition with a winning turn at regional competitions Oct. 17 in Littleton. That allowed them to skip the quarterfinals on Friday Oct. 27 in Colorado Springs Falcon Stadium and go straight to the semifinals Saturday morning. Bands are evaluated in three categories. “The first is obviously the music,”Stansberry said. “Everything is driven by the music.” But the bands are also judged on

how well they move and how well they perform visually. “And then the other thing is ‘General Effect,’“ he said. “That involves everything. How does your music and visual work together, how does the performance compare to others, and how does the audience react? Is the audience involved in the your performance? Those are the kinds of things.” The band took top scores in performing four songs: “Short Ride in Fast Machine,” by American classical composer John Adams, a song by Jazz guitarist and composer Pat Metheny called “The Way Up,” and a piece by Michigan-based composer and pianist Vienna Teng called “The Hymn of Axiom.” The final performance was from the fourth movement of a symphony by modern music composer William Bolcom titled “Machine.” “We work to perform at our highest level,” he said. “We spend a lot of time so the students can coordinate their music and visual elements together. And the kids really stepped it up and had a great performance.” It was a true team performance. “Everybody has to work together, and everyone really has to perform at their top level,” he said.

`Elevate’ looks to build on schools’ successes BY SCOTT TAYLOR STAYLOR@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

With graduation rates improving, better literacy test scores and a 2016 bond approval, Adams 12 Five Star school officials are beginning work on a new five-year master plan. “We are not going to rewrite everything but we want to build on our success and look forward to the future,” said district spokesman Mark Poshak. One goal is continue the academic success the district has been having, he said. Test scores are up and thanks to the $350 million bond voters approved in 2016, the school was able to dedicate new money to maintenance and improvements, Poshak said. “We realized that only happened because we started early and engaged our community often, listening well and making sure everyone was on the same page,” Poshak said. “We want to replicate that success in how we think about our future.” The bond has taken budgetary pressure off of the school district. “Because of the generous voting by our community, we are able to now focus more on where we are heading,” he said. “Before, everything was maintenance driven and that we are providing safe and adequate buildings. Now that we have better funding for that, we are able to think about where we want to go next and what we really need.” From POLARIS to ELEVATE The district’s current master plan, POLARIS, was adopted in 2010, called out certain goals. “We want to be at a better graduation rate at a certain time,” Poshak said. “We want to be higher than the state average on certain test scores. But it also had some strategies.” It called for different pathways for students, create choice schools and improve community relations. “We have set new goals from time to time since the, but we have not gone through this whole public process

since then,” Poshak said. The new process is called ELEVATE and began this month, with meetings on Nov. 1 and at 6:30 p.m. Nov. 8 at STEM Launch, at 9450 Pecos Drive in Thornton. A third meeting is scheduled at 6:30 p.m. at Horizon High School and a fourth fall meeting is at 9 a.m. Dec. 8 at Thornton High School. The Dec. 8 session will be conducted in Spanish. But the process is only beginning this fall. The current series of meetings are designed to take input from parents, community members and staff. “The meetings are pretty much all the same, so people can take their pick,” he said. “The process is going to take all year, so the fall meetings are devoted to listening and learning. We will go through several steps the people who choose to come starting with stories. “We want them to tell us their experiences, when the school did right and what came from that. We don’t want to just hear what they want for their classrooms. It start with who we are, our strengths and where we want to head.” A team of 30 parents, principles, officials and community members will pour over that input this winter, coming back for a second round public meetings next spring. “We’ll do a full day summit, where we invite 150, 200 people — parents, staff and all that,” he said. “We’ll look at what we’ve heard and ask them how we can achieve what people want.” The team will take that feedback and put together a list of goals, priorities and outcomes designed to carry the school from 2022. “Maybe we end up with a list of goals and tactics, but we don’t know right now,” Poshak said, “We don’t know right now, which makes it kind of exciting. But we’d like to present some ideas to the Board of Education at the end of the school year and then come back in August with a final plan.” For More Information Visit the Adams 12 Five Star’s master plan website, www.adams12.org/ whatisELEVATE or elevate@adams12. org.

Arapahoe House launches addiction treatment initiative Thornton-based Arapahoe House, Colorado’s leading provider of lifechanging addiction treatment, is launching an initiative to make sure its facilities and programs are welcoming to LGBTQ+ individuals seeking treatment. An accompanying marketing campaign focused on the LGBTQ+ community will highlight the “respectful, inclusive addiction treatment” provided by Arapahoe House.

According to the National Alliance on Mental Illness, the LGBTQ+ community reports higher rates of drug, alcohol and tobacco use. Some factors that might contribute to this population’s vulnerability to addiction include discrimination, stigma, higher rates of depression, family rejection, and a desire to fit in with other members of the LGBTQ community who use alcohol or drugs. Studies have also suggested that barriers to treatment for trans-identified people often include discrimination, provider hostility and insensitivity. “Arapahoe House recognizes and respects the life experiences that may contribute to LGBTQ+ individuals’ substance use disorders, and how those experiences impact their treatment and recovery,” said Arapahoe House CEO Mike Butler. “We have ensured that all Arapahoe House facilities welcome people across the LGBTQ+ spectrum. In addition, our policies and procedures ensure that our clinicians and other staff members provide for our patients in the most inclusive and respectful manner.” The initiative is made possible by funding from the Colorado Health Foundation, a leading grant-making organization focused on health equity and access.

Reach breakfast tackles drug abuse The Community Reach Center and Adams County officials will combine efforts to discuss drug and alcohol abuse and community responses at 7:30 a.m. NOv. 15 at the Denver Marriott Westminster, 7000 Church Ranch Boulevard. Reach CEO Rick Doucet will be the keynote presenter. Doucet will review current statistics and trends and report on programs and successes at Community Reach Center. The breakfast also provides an opportunity to touch base with the organization’s clinicians and administrators to obtain background information. Breakfast and networking is scheduled at 7:30 a.m., with the presentation beginning at 8 a.m.

Hickenlooper budget would boost school funding Governor’s plan calls for increasing spending by about $343 per student BY YESENIA ROBLES CHALKBEAT.ORG

Colorado would give school districts more money next year and the state would make a dent in its school funding shortfall under Gov. John Hickenlooper’s proposed 2018-19 budget released Nov. 1. If the plan is approved by state lawmakers, school districts would see an increase of about $343 per student, or an increase of about 4.5 percent. The funding proposal would reduce the gap between how much the state

gives schools and what it should fund its schools according to an existing formula. That funding shortfall, commonly called the negative factor, would decrease by $70 million. The $28.7 billion budget proposal also seeks to increase the state’s savings, make a large investment in higher education to “moderate” college tuition increases and address issues with the state’s troubled pension system. Another significant education piece of the budget proposal: an $11 million request to provide charter schools authorized by the state’s Charter School Institute with extra dollars to compare with what districts will be required to share with their own charter schools. A law passed earlier this year re-

quires school districts to share a portion of local tax measures with charter schools in their districts, but those authorized by the state were not included in the plans. Now charter school advocates are looking to bring up their funding too. “We’re starting an equalization process with an $11 million increase in this budget,” Henry Sobanet, the state’s budget director, said during a briefing with reporters. The governor is also planning to set aside $10 million from the Marijuana Tax Cash Fund for work to reverse teacher shortages. A report requested by lawmakers will be released in December and is expected to include a plan for strategies that will help attract and retain more teachers.

“We anticipate a significant focus on the challenges rural communities face in attracting, retaining and developing the qualified teachers needed to support positive student outcomes,” the budget proposal states.The proposal was sent to the Joint Budget Committee for their consideration. A final budget is usually approved in the spring. Last year, the final budget approved by lawmakers was considerably different than what the governor had proposed. The November budget proposal last year expected an increase in the gap between what schools would get and what they actually receive, but in the end, lawmakers were able to keep the shortfall from growing.

Season brings increase in wildlife/vehicle crashes BY STAFF REPORT

The migration of animals to their winter habitats can lead to a rise in animal-vehicle collisions in fall and winter. That is one reason the Colorado Department of Transportation, Colorado Parks and Wildlife and the Colorado State Patrol are reminding motorists to be cautious as wildlife are on the move. “As days shorten, temperatures drop and snow begins to fall, many wildlife species move from their high-elevation summer ranges in the mountains and plateaus and travel to lower elevation winter ranges in the foothills and valleys,” Mark Lawler, CDOT biologist, said in a news release. “The essential habitats for these animals are intersected by Colorado’s highways, forcing wildlife to cross roadways in search of food, water, space and shelter.” State agencies track reported collisions with wildlife, and the statistics count all types of animals including small and large mammals from raccoon and skunk to moose and elk. However, the most significant number of animal-vehicle collisions occur with deer. Agencies reported that more than 4,600 deer were killed on Colorado highways in 2016. Most collisions occur from dusk to dawn, when wildlife are more active and, unfortunately, more difficult to see. If a wildlife collision does occur, a Colorado State Patrol captain offers some advice. “Drivers should brake, look and steer,” Capt. Adrian Driscol said in a news release. “Brake, slow down

WHERE ANIMAL-VEHICLE COLLISIONS HAPPEN Deer specific animal-vehicle collisions for the Denver metro area in 2016 totaled 301. The highway corridors with significant numbers of these collisions include: • US 285, MP 230-250, Conifer to the CO 470 Interchange: 86 collisions (deer) • I-70, 250-270, Genesee Park to Denver: 38 collisions (deer) • I-25, MP 180-190, Castle Rock to 2 miles north of Castle Pines: 7 collisions (deer) • I-25, MP 161-180, 18-mile segment between south Castle Rock and Monument. This area, known as The Gap, is particularly susceptible to animal-vehicle collisions due to the rural nature of the area and Greenland Open Space, south of Larkspur. and concentrate on keeping control of your vehicle. Look around and be aware of your surroundings, especially other vehicles in front or behind you. Then steer and move your vehicle to a safe position off the road.” The best practice for drivers is to be aware, drive with caution and slow down, especially at night. While almost every road in both rural and urban areas will have wildlife attempting to cross the roadway, road kill statistics have pinpointed some highways that are more frequently used as corridors for wildlife on the move. “If you see one deer or elk, more than likely you can expect others crossing the highway too,” Driscol said.

Homeless vet numbers may be down, but problem persists Cities, counties, groups try to reach out to those suﬀering after service BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

An estimated 569 homeless veterans live in the Denver metro area, and Freddie Sprankel used to be one of them. After more than three years in the U.S. Army — including an almost year-long duty tour in Iraq — Sprankel got an honorable discharge in 2012 and was in a head-on car collision that caused him spinal damage in Fort Hood, Texas. He came back to his native Colorado to be near his family for mental support, went through a divorce and ended up homeless in Denver. A year and a half later, Sprankel was able to find housing — but for many homeless veterans, the path forward is still steep. “I would say the trajectory is such that that population is increasing,” T.J. Westphal, a service officer for the Arapahoe County Veterans Service Office, said of homeless veterans in his county. Given “the current housing market and cost of living, we definitely talk to a lot of people who are on the cusp of becoming homeless.” Westphal says the numbers are hard to track, but he’s noticed an uptick in the number of people in Arapahoe County who are on that edge since 2014 and 2015. For Sprankel, 34, it took a combination of help from a nonprofit organization and a governmental body to get him back to life with housing, as is the case for many like him. But dealing with the local offices of the United States Department of Veterans Affairs — better known as the VA — wasn’t easy, even for a homeless veteran. In limbo Left with no separation pay when he was discharged from the Army, Sprankel, a father of five, was told the VA would take care of him. But when he started his disability paperwork in Colorado, it was a self-described “nightmare.” Sprankel said he dealt with a slow-moving Denver VA system, and he said he had to go to great lengths to get his case on track and get the benefits he needed, a year and a half after he had come back to Colorado after his service.

RESOURCES ARE AVAILABLE The VA offers: • Permanent supportive housing and transitional housing • Drop-in services including showers, a food pantry, case management, housing assistance and screening and referrals for VA and community programs, through the Volunteers Of America Bill Daniels Veteran Services Center • Walk-in clinic service also oﬀering case management, housing assistance and program referrals • Call: 800-827-1000 and 303-399-8020; call 720501-3367 for the Bill Daniels center Homeless assistance and veterans services from nonprofit and local resources: These entities oﬀer services or help veterans navigate the VA process. In general, the VA offers avenues to permanent supportive housing, transitional housing and referrals for VA and community programs, said Michelle Lapidow, section chief for the homeless program at the VA Eastern Colorado Health Care System in Denver. Vouchers through the Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing program of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development — known as HUD-VASH — can be a road to housing, Sprankel said, but even if a veteran is approved, they still have to wait for housing to open up that accepts the vouchers. Westphal in Arapahoe County, an Army veteran himself, said frustration with the VA is often due to misinformed expectations. “If they feel like they’ve been burned, we help them” understand the VA’s decision, said Westphal, who previous-

ly worked for the VA. “Some vets get into the mindset of, ‘Well, I’m a vet — the VA is going to be there to help me with anything I need.’ “ Because veterans often hear misinformation about help they can get, Westphal said, it can be a wake-up call when they find out what they’re eligible for. “I would say for my part, I wasn’t really informed at all,” Westphal said. “When I got out in 2005 ... there weren’t a lot of services for transition out of the military at that point. Over the last decade or so, we’ve really seen the VA and communities making an effort to improve that piece, but (the) military and VA have a lot of work to do (to give) good information to vets when they separate.” Mariah Markus, 26, a former member of the Air National Guard who trained and worked at U.S. Air Force bases, also became homeless

and met Sprankel through the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 1 in Denver. “There’s a lot of bureaucracy that surrounds VA claims,” said Markus, who grew up in Aurora and became homeless in July 2015 after exiting the military in 2012. “It’s a systematic problem.” Markus wasn’t able to get disability benefits because she never served active duty. “Some claims get approved all at once,” she said. “Some have to really put up a fight.” Challenges and welcome news In the metro area suburbs, the homeless veteran population is much smaller than in the city of Denver, where about 81 percent of homeless veterans in the area stayed on one night in the Metro Denver Homeless Initiative’s Point-InTime survey. But officials are still working to provide help. “Over the past year, Jefferson County has seen an

increase in homeless veterans as they have moved from other counties into Jeffco,” said Kathryn Otten, an official with the county’s Human Services Department. Although its veterans’ service officers didn’t make contact with homeless veterans in most months of 2017, Otten said the office believes there has been an increase in need. The City and County of Denver is the epicenter of veteran homelessness in Colorado, said Brenton Hutson, an official with Volunteers of America’s Colorado branch. Denver’s point-in-time count, 459, dwarfs that of the nexthighest count in the metro area, Arapahoe County’s 44. “Denver metro is one of the few urban centers nationally that has not seen a marked decline in homelessness amongst veterans over the past several years,” said Brenton Hutson, an official with Volunteers of America’s Colorado branch. “That tide is beginning to turn, in large part because of community efforts to stand up more effective data systems that allow providers to efficiently connect services to those in need.” After a three-year growth streak that peaked in 2016 with 713 homeless veterans identified, the Point-In-Time report on the amount of homeless in the Denver metro area on one night, Jan. 30, showed 569 veterans counted. That number comes despite the overall homelessness and chronically homeless counts hitting six-year highs. The survey doesn’t yield an exact picture of the homeless population, but the results may signal a shift. But veterans like Sprankel don’t always have a lot of time to wait. A patchwork of help “It was tough, without a doubt,” Sprankel said. “I wasn’t sleeping — I’d drive around to wherever I’d feel safe for the night, crash out for one to two hours, and then I’d be up. Paranoia kicks in, that fear mindset.” Homeless shelters in the city of Denver can be a hostile environment, especially for combat veterans, Sprankel said. “I just rolled with the punches, until the punches got so heavy I was ready to kill myself,” said Sprankel, who said he attempted cutting his femoral artery with a butcher knife at one point. Other veterans got him motivated, and that, Sprankel SEE VETERANS, P11

said, saved his life. In 2013, he met a veteran from the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 1 at a King Soopers, who gave him resources he needed to get back on his feet. “They really brought me in, gave me another home when I really didn’t even have one,” said Sprankel, who sometimes asked to stay in other people’s homes. “My pride was kicking in — I didn’t want to ask for help, and that was (wrong).” Sprankel, who receives income through the VA and said he can’t work for medical reasons — he had stomach surgery in Iraq and surgery on his spine — has had a home in Highlands Ranch since summer 2014. Now, as a volunteer for the VFW, he reaches out to people who might have the same prideful mentality as he once did about not accepting help. “They gotta fill in that paperwork and (get working),” said Sprankel, who helps veterans in crisis and helps with disability claims and homelessness. Being homeless opened Sprankel’s eyes to “what’s really going on here in Denver.” “It’s not necessarily that people aren’t helping, but there’s only so much certain organizations can do,” Sprankel said. On the public side, every county in Colorado has an officer like Westphal in Arapahoe County. Westphal helps link veterans to services like Medicaid and food assistance as well as housing options. “The million-dollar question is, what can cities and communities do?” Westphal said. Local governments should work with affordable housing developers to incentivize more affordable units

HOMELESS VETERANS: BY THE NUMBERS

•

There were 5,116 homeless people counted on Jan. 30 in the seven-county Denver metro area. Of those, 569 identified as veterans. The area includes Denver, Arapahoe, Jefferson, Adams, Douglas, Broomfield and Boulder counties.

• • • • • •

That’s down from 713 veterans in 2016. In 2012, the count was 710, and in 2013, it dropped to 358 and steadily climbed back up. More than 51 percent of homeless veterans were 55 or older. More than 91 percent were male.

About 300 were disabled in some way. About 200 have mental illness, and about 50 were victims of domestic violence. About half were staying in transitional housing on the day of the survey. Nearly all the rest were in emergency shelter or had no shelter. The count did not include people staying in motels paid for by themselves, or sleeping on couches with friends or family. It should be noted that the survey is subject to voluntary participation and is a “snapshot” of the homeless population — actual numbers may be higher.

Not just a man’s job Female farmers hold important roles in agriculture industry

FEMALE FARMERS ACROSS THE NATION: BY THE NUMBERS

969,672

Women farmers in the United States, and 288,264 were principal operators, meaning she is the person in charge of the farm’s day-to-day operations.

BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

When Danell Kalcevic was in kindergarten, an assignment asked her to describe what she wanted to be when she grows up. “It sounds silly,” Kalcevic, 48, said, but what she put on the assignment was a farmer’s wife. Fast forward and Kalcevic is partowner of Kalcevic Farms, which are located near Bennett and Lindon in eastern Colorado. Their primary crop is wheat, but they also farm corn, millet, sunflowers and cattle feed. The farm has been in Kalcevic’s husband’s family since it got its start near Denver in the 60th Avenue and Pecos Street area in 1898. It has been at the Bennett location since 1952. “I love that it’s something we can do as a family,” Kalcevic said. “It takes a team to do what we do. In this country, it’s families that make up the farms.” In April 2002, Kalcevic left her career as a project and product manager with Horizon Software to stay home with her two children. It was then that she slowly started picking up some tasks involving the operations of the farm. And now, she is an integral part of it. Since the beginning of farming, women have been involved with the family farm behind the scenes — cooking, cleaning, bookkeeping, Kalcevic said. “But because it’s always been men in the equipment and running the machinery, it’s been assumed that it’s men running the farm,” she added. However, in today’s world, there are more women operating farms and pursuing high-end careers in the agriculture industry. “The independent female can go out and start her own farm,” said Colleen Peppler, a retired educator who is a partner of Peppler Farms in Weld County. “It doesn’t have to be a man.” Leveling the playing field According to the latest Census of Agriculture — which is conducted by the U.S. Department of Agriculture — 30 percent of the nation’s farmers were women in 2012, up from 27 percent a decade earlier. These female farmers controlled 7 percent of the farmland in the U.S. The Census of Agriculture is conducted every five years, and the 2017 census will be done this winter. In Colorado, the USDA states that women farmers make up 37 percent of the state’s producers. There are 21,443 women farmers in Colorado who farm more than 13 million acres. “We’re starting to see a very level playing field,” said Jennifer Tucker, the small acreage agent for CSU Extension in Adams County. “Ranchers and farmers within the agriculture industry don’t see it as a man’s

industry.” Peppler Farms consists of four locations in Weld County near Mead. In August, one of the farms was honored at the Colorado State Fair by the Colorado Department of Agriculture and History Colorado as a Centennial Farm — meaning the farm has been in the family for 100 years. Peppler Farms produce corn used for livestock feed, wheat, alfalfa hay and beer barley for Coors. Peppler’s father was a wheat farmer in eastern Colorado, so she has been

hands-on with farm operations since she was about 13, she said. In fact, she and her two sisters were her father’s “harvest crew,” Peppler said. And Kalcevic’s two daughters, Tabor, 19, and Asia, 16, are also very much involved in their family farm’s operations. “Often, when people think of a farmer, they think of a man,” Tabor Kalcevic said. But “when women step into these roles, they can really shine.” Tabor is currently a sophomore at CSU in Fort Collins pursuing a

bachelor’s degree with a double major in soil and crop science and agriculture business. She hopes to someday become the CEO of Kalcevic Farms. “Women bring a different perspective to any industry,” Tabor Kalcevic said. Different, in a good way though, she added. “A strong work ethic is what gets you there.” More than ranching, farming There is a lot of interest among young women wanting to enter a career in agriculture, said Brooke Fox, CEO of the Colorado Agricultural Leadership Foundation, also known as CALF. Career fields pertaining to agriculture are just about endless, she said. Careers can be anything from veterinarians, livestock producers and crop scientists to lawyers, media relations, mechanics and those who develop the new technologies for modern-day equipment, said Fox, who grew up on a cattle ranch near Larkspur. “It’s not just ranching and farming,” she said. “No matter what your interests are, you can find a place in agriculture.” CALF is a nonprofit organization dedicated to connecting people of all ages and abilities to agriculture through educational programs, community projects and special events. Since 2009, CALF has served more than 19,000 children, Fox said, and annually, between 10 and 15 students in 4-H or members of Future Farmers of America raise livestock at the foundation’s working educational ranch, Lowell Ranch, in Castle Rock. “Every person on the planet relies on agriculture in some form,” Fox said. “We need everyone to be thinking about our future and how to produce healthy, safe food.” Both Danell Kalcevic and Peppler are volunteers with a group called CommonGround, which is a national SEE FARMERS, P21

A real gem for area equestrians Elizabeth native repairs gear and makes new products by hand BY TOM MUNDS TMUNDS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The smells of coffee and leather fill the air when visitors stop by the Wildflower Saddles and Tack shop at 122 Main St. in Elizabeth, where they are greeted by owner Tom Knowles plus a possible purr from General Sterling Price the cat. “I come here every day to open the shop, make coffee and feed General Sterling Price,” Knowles said with a smile. “After that I might get a little work done making new tack and possibly repairing or restoring a saddle or two.” Knowles has a lifetime of experience with saddles and tack. He said he learned to ride horses almost as soon as he could walk and worked cattle a good portion of his life. “I worked cattle on the hoof for a lot of years. I have been working with their hides since we opened the shop in 1986,” he said. “I like to work with leather and make tack items like reins, bridles, cinches and other items. “I also love saddles. I repair them for customers and I also have a large collection of saddles, some dating back to the late 1800s as well as some that are fairly new. I guess the shop has become sort of a saddle museum.” As he talked he used a straight edge and knife to cut a blank for reins from the tanned leather he had stretched out on the counter. He said there are still a lot of people living in the area around Elizabeth who have horses, and they need a tack shop like Wildflower to repair saddles and gear and as a place to buy new tack items. “I think this is the only shop like this around the area that does repairs on saddles and tack,” he said. “I know big stores have new items for sale, but I don’t know of another shop close to here that does repairs like we do.” The 71-year-old was born on a ranch between Kiowa and Elizabeth and became a cowboy at a young age. “When I was a boy the family moved to ranch in the Montrose area,” he said. “I learned to ride and work cattle very young. I was about 12 when mom and dad broke up. I decided to go out on my own so I packed a few clothes, saddled my horse, took my dog and left home. I hired out to work cattle then and grew up that way.” He said he and his dad later reunited and worked together raising horses in the mountains. He graduated from Steamboat Springs High School and went to college for a year. “During that time I worked cattle and horses at area ranches and I also competed in area rodeos in bareback, saddle bronc and bull riding,” he said. “Things changes for me in 1967 when I got that wonderful letter from Uncle Sam telling me I had been drafted into the Army.” He was trained in artillery target

Tom Knowles talks about one of the saddles he has in his collection at his business, The Wildflower Saddles and Tack Shop in Elizabeth. Knowles restores and repairs saddles and over the years he has assembled a collection that includes some fairly modern saddles as well as some that date to the 1800s. PHOTOS BY TOM MUNDS acquisition and was in Vietnam in 1986 and 1969. “My Army training prepared me to attend School of Mines so I could work as a surveyor,” he said. “I did that but I also helped out ranchers I knew when they needed an extra hand for a short time.” He was married in 1970 and in the 1980s he and his wife worked on a ranch near Kiowa. “We decided to needed to do something to make a living when we left ranching so we opened this shop in ‘86,” Knowles said. “My son Tad worked here with me for a while.” Tad Knowles said he learned about saddles and working leather from his dad. “I helped dad in the shop because I was too lazy to work and too scared to steal,” he said with a smile in his voice. “I learned how to repair tack and saddles from Dad. I also found I had a knack for creating custom saddles and it became my passion.” He said he eventually moved to Kiowa because there wasn’t enough room in Elizabeth for his work. “I do custom work. I talk with the customer and I try to tool the leather to create the designs and appearance they want on the saddle,” he said. “I spend a lot of time on a project and it takes me about 200 hours to do an all the work on a special custom saddle.” His dad said he is proud of his son. “Tad is an artist,” Tom said. “His work is amazing.” The 71-year-old said he plans to continue to operate the shop as long as he can. “I enjoy working with leather and I like it that I can repair a favorite saddle for a customer,” he said. “But I don’t spend all my time in the shop. Working with saddles and tack you meet people who work cattle and, if they need a hand with roundup or branding, I pitch in and lend a hand because I am still pretty good at working cattle.”

Tom Knowles, owner of The Wildflower Saddles and Tack Shop at 122 Main St., in Elizabeth talks about some of the new tack items he stocks in his store. Knowles makes most of the new items on display and he can restore or repair saddles for customers.

Department of Health challenges myths surrounding Rocky Flats

welve years after cleanup ended and the Rocky Flats site was declared suitable for any use, persistent myths still inspire dread and outrage among longtime Denver residents and newcomers alike. The oversight agencies for Rocky Flats, the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment, along with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, are committed to providing accurate information about the cleanup, maintenance and risks at the site. It’s not always easy, given long standing and polarizing opinions that often result in misleading and biased information concerning Rocky Flats. A Denver Post editorial from June 16, 2017 highlights the millions of data points collected in air, soil and water at thousands of locations on the site. One particularly persistent myth is that this enormous data collection is hidden from the public. In fact, the records are available through several sources: The U.S. Department of Energy maintains the official administrative record for Rocky Flats environmental data: https://www.lm.doe.gov/ Rocky_Flats/Sites.aspx. The administrative record contains major decision documents and various reports on environmental investigations and cleanup. EPA’s Region 8 provides site documents and data on its publicly available Rocky Flats web page: https://

cumulis.epa.gov/supercpad/cursites/ csitinfo.cfm?id=0800360. The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment’s Rocky Flats web page contains site documents, answers to frequently asked questions and links to various health studies: https://www.colorado.gov/ pacific/cdphe/rocky-flats. In addition, anyone may request records held by these agencies through the federal Freedom of Information Act or the state’s Colorado Open Records Act. No data is hidden nor unavailable to the public. Another recurring myth is that public health risks from Rocky Flats are unknown or uncertain. As a point of fact, nationally recognized health experts used reliable assessment methods and strict health guidelines to analyze the vast collection of site data. These studies and the decisions based on them were scrutinized by various state and federal agencies as well as by the public. The comprehensive evaluation of risks to future refuge workers or visitors concluded that the risks are minimal. The oversight agencies determined that the massive cleanup effort met all state and federal laws, safeguards human health and protects the environment. When cleanup was completed in 2005, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry, known as the ATSDR, assessed public health near the Rocky Flats site. The Disease Registry reviewed sci-

failed to do its job. Special interests and their money have controlled the legislature and the governor’s office way too long. I hope Broomfield’s efforts hold up and can be used as a starting point for more stringent state-wide legislation and oil and gas regulations. It is not a case of being against fracking. It is a case of what is reasonable and is protective of the citizenry in urban areas.

Will Broomfield’s efforts lead the way? Fundamentally, residents should be protected from air and water pollution caused by the fracking operations as well as the noise and vibrations. Health, safety and welfare considerations should prevail. The Boulder plaintiffs’ case seems to have gotten the governor’s attention, at least compared to some of his previous actions on the subject. We know from previous litigation that state oil and gas regulations trump local home rule regulations which are more stringent. When you look at all the litigation, the time spent, all the attorney fees paid, the unknown impacts on residents and the uncertain future of fracking regulations, it is abundantly clear that the state legislature has

Stay tuned By the way, a handful of Broomfield citizens had filed an injunction on the day of the Broomfield City Council meeting attempting to stop the council from acting on the memorandum of understanding. No judge was available that day so timely execution of the attempted injunction failed to happen. We will see if this piece of litigation has any impact on Broomfield’s memorandum. Stay tuned as there are a lot of moving parts to this whole issue. Plus, the money is huge in this fight so you know that oil and gas interests will not sit still.

entific data to see how much contamination remains and how people might come into contact with it and also evaluated health effects, including potential impacts to children. The conclusion: “ATSDR did not identify any environmental exposures at levels of public health concern for past and current exposures…” The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment also has completed three cancer studies for communities around Rocky Flats, including two recent studies. In response to public interest in this site, the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment just released a 2017 supplemental study that looked at rates of thyroid cancer and all rare cancers in communities around Rocky Flats. These studies, which are based on doctors’ reports to the state Cancer Registry, have consistently found no evidence of

higher-than-expected cancer rates near Rocky Flats. The cancer studies and historical public exposure studies are posted on the department of health and environment website. The anticipated opening of the Rocky Flats National Wildlife Refuge and nearby construction have raised new interest in the Rocky Flats cleanup. We at the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment routinely respond to public inquiries and remain steadfast in our commitment to providing correct information. Anyone with questions or concerns about Rocky Flats can contact the department or the EPA, examine the data and draw informed conclusions based on fact, not myth. Dr. Larry Wolk is Executive Director and Chief Medical Officer Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment.

Searching for inspiration at TEDxMileHigh Coming Attractions BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Scuba divers from Greenwood Village’s One World Dive and Travel meet some of the ocean’s denizens.

pace, the final frontier. While that’s a frontier most of us won’t have the chance to explore, two-thirds of Earth has the next best thing — open water for scuba diving. “Just like in space travel, you get that same weightlessness and sense of exploration when you dive into the ocean,” said Derek Prosser, owner of Underwater Phantaseas, which is celebrating 35 years in Lakewood. “There’s something new to see every time I dive.” Despite being a landlocked state, Colorado is home to a large number of avid divers. According to the Colorado Ocean Coalition, a nonprofit with the goal of inspiring residents to promote healthy oceans through education and community involvement, Colorado has more certified scuba divers than any other state. And owners of the many scuba shops in the metro area know why. “We have the long cold winters that people want to escape in someplace warm,” said Fred Halcomb, owner of Arvada’s Coral Key Scuba and Travel shop. “We have a major hub airport, and are just a five-hour flight from some of the best diving. We have a lot of transplants from warm places. And Colorado is a very fit place, so people who live here are looking for

STEPS TO BECOMING A CERTIFIED SCUBA DIVER Being a certified diver means that person is able to fill their own tanks or have their tanks filled by scuba shops, and is a lifelong certification. Most dive shops have flexible options for students to complete the steps necessary to becoming a certified diver. Costs will vary, but the average cost to become certified ranges from $400 to $600. The three steps are: • Independent study — First, divers have to do some studying, either through approved books or online materials, on safe diving, the proper equipment and diving procedures. • Pool dives — Most scuba diving stores have

a pool on site, or a partner pool they work with, where new divers learn how to set up their equipment, get a sense of the weight in the water, and other skills. • Open-water dives — The ﬁnal step includes four dives in open-water environments, where students take everything they learned in the first two steps and apply them. There are various locations in Colorado these dives can be completed at, as well as options in neighboring states like New Mexico and Utah. Source: A-1 Scuba & Travel Aquatics Center in Littleton

active things to do.” While there are some places to dive in Colorado during the summer months — like Chatfield Reservoir, Jefferson Lake, and even the Downtown Aquarium — most people who come into area scuba shops are preparing for a trip somewhere warm — think Fiji, Mexico and the Caribbean. Because of this fact, most scuba shops have a travel agent component, and many organize group guided trips with customers and staff. “The most popular place we see is Cozumel in Mexico,” said Brian Miller, owner of One World Dive and Travel in Greenwood Village. “One of the best things about diving is it’s a great reason to travel to some beautiful places in the world.” Training and education are key parts of any safe and successful dive trip, and to that end, most dive shops offer classes, pools for practice, and guided dives to get scuba certified.

Many facilities have their own pools for training, and work with people who are reluctant to take to the water. Many first-time divers also have fears about pressure on their ears, claustrophobia and panicking once they get underwater. “Taking people who are afraid is my absolute favorite thing to do,” Halcomb said. “It takes a little bit of time to get past those fight-or-flight responses, especially since you’re not used to being in water in breathing, but we take it as slow as is necessary to get our students comfortable.” The youngest a person can be certified is 10 years old, and divers can be active well into their 80s. “The water is the great equalizer, and we do a lot of work with patients at Craig Hospital,” said Scott Taylor with A-1 Scuba & Travel Aquatics Center in Littleton. “There’s a misSEE SCUBA, P17

ho doesn’t need a little inspiration now and then? Even just a little inspiration at the right time can make all the difference when you’re facing both professional and personal challenges, or when you’re struggling and in need of encouragement. Inspiration leads to creativity, determination, and a renewal of passion. For years, TED Talks have been inspiring millions of Youtube viewers, and now the organization is bringing its speakers and illuminating discussions COMING Denver with the ATTRACTIONS to TEDxMileHigh’s “Wonder” festival from 9:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 11.

Individual tickets range from about $40 to $100, and group discounts are available. “Wonder activates our curiosity and stirs our imagination,” said Jeremy Duhon, founder and curator of TEDxMileHigh, in a statement. “Colorado is the perfect place to bring together maverick thinkers, explorers, creators, and innovators. Through the power of big ideas and authentic connection, we’ll observe closer, investigate deeper, and propel our collective consciousness forward.” There will be a speaker for every interest — atmospheric scientist Brian Toon, author and poet Dominique Christina, interstellar correspondent Douglas Vakoch, social justice advocate F Tamika D.

4-H camps, conferences start with leadership, lead to fun

nce a member has attended a 4-H camp, they usually want to go again and again! As I write this column, I’m sitting at the Colorado EXTENSION State Fair 4-H building watching over UPDATE 50 youths teach and learn, sing and dance, laugh and cry, lead and follow. It’s an amazing sight! Six camps and conferences are offered to 4-H members in Elbert County from fall through summer Sheila G. Kelley in locations across the state. This camp is the Dare to Be You camp sponsored by the South Central District Counties for members ages 11-13. Most of the camps are Friday night, all day Saturday and Sunday morning. These events are for camps members

11-18 years of age and open to all 4-H members in good standing. Along with leadership skills, members are introduced to new people — both youths and adults. Many new friendships are made and contacts across the region and state are strengthened. Second-year camper Gage Sickendick of Deer Trail Eagles 4-H said he enjoys coming back because the activities are always different and he gets to make new friends each time. Bailey Churchwell of Rural Rustlers 4-H said she came back this year because the whole camp was fun. She really liked meeting new friends and learning to dance. Camaraderie, communications and teamwork are essential elements of all the camps. Although county members are usually housed together, they are split into different groups during the workshops and activities to help them learn how to meet new people and

interact with others from different personality types and geographical and demographic areas. Beyond the campers, many counties provide teen counselors to help with all the workshops and activities. Longtime counselor Kaden Henderson of Elbert Creekside 4-H, has been a camp counselor for the three years. He told me he loves to work with children and watch them grow over the years he’s been with them. He really appreciates his experiences working with the officer team as the leader and teammate helping put on two camps. “Before I started going to camps and seminars, I couldn’t speak in front of a group,” he said. “Now I’m the South Central District president and do public speaking all the time. It’s helped my confidence.” Since community service is such an important part of 4-H, each camp usually incorporates a service project for those attending. Some of those activi-

ties have included collecting paper and cleaning products for the Ronald McDonald House, gathering supplies to make back-to-school packages, raking and cleaning facilities, etc. These camps help members increase their self-esteem, become physically involved in activities, develop self-confidence and increase motivation. Youth are introduced to adults as they engage in numerous activities such as rocket making and launching, tug-of-war activities, community service and more. If your child is interested in joining 4-H or you would like further information, please contact the Elbert County Extension office at 303-621-3162. 4-H is a cooperative effort between CSU Extension and Elbert County. Sheila G. Kelley is the Colorado State University extension director for Elbert County. She can be reached at sheila. kelley@colostate.edu.

Colorado exchange up and running for those wanting health insurance

GUEST COLUMN

Diana DeGette

ow’s the time to go shopping — no, not for the holidays just yet, but for health insurance coverage. It’s open enrollment season, a time to compare policies and find the coverage that works best for you and your family as the new year approaches. Even if you’re already signed up for health insurance this year, it’s a good time to visit connectforhealthco.com and compare

plans. You might wind up saving some money. And for most people, financial assistance is available. Thanks to the Affordable Care Act, when you purchase insurance through the exchanges, you no longer can be charged higher premiums just for being a woman. And people with pre-existing health conditions won’t be charged more than anybody else. Don’t be fooled by those who say the ACA is imploding — they’re

doing that to undermine the system and drive people away. What’s more, the several attempts to dismantle the ACA in Congress this year have all failed. The ACA was devised to put affordable coverage within everyone’s reach, and it’s been doing so for millions of people. So many constituents have told me how it has helped them avoid having to make the horrible choice between treating an illness and going

broke. We can’t go back to those terrible days before the ACA. Enrollment is simple; connectoforhealthco.com walks you through every step. And it takes only a few minutes. In Colorado, open enrollment lasts until Jan. 12 — but why wait? Look at your options, pick a plan that’s right for you, and spread the word! Congresswoman Diana DeGette, D-Denver, represents Colorado’s 1st District.

It’s eloquent and elegant, and nothing like war memorials of the past, which generally featured valiant generals or valiant soldiers in their shining moments. As an artist, I am aware of the limited ability of some — of many — to accept something that might be too contemplative or conceptual. The negative reaction to Lin’s bril-

grassroots movement designed to help bridge the gap between the women who grow food and the women who buy it. For the most part, it is still primarily women who do the grocery shopping for most households in the U.S., Peppler said. Therefore, she added, women “are a keen ear of knowing what consumers want.” CommonGround volunteers share their personal experiences, science and research to help consumers sort through the growing number of myths and misinformation surrounding food and farming. “We’re the ones who start conversations in the grocery store,” Peppler said. “This is our career.

liant design led to the creation of another Vietnam War memorial that features valiant soldiers. Lin’s is far more compelling and important, and it’s always been a wish of mine to meet her. Veterans Day is coming up. It’s the only holiday that I observe. It’s the only meaningful one that hasn’t been turned into an exaggeration. (I make some gastronomical exceptions for Thanksgiving.) I lived with a veteran for 17 years. Not once did he talk about it. He didn’t, so I didn’t. I wish I had. I really wish I had. Along the way I have done my research, watched documentaries, read up on World War II, and realize what he and others did was beyond my grasp and comprehension. I had a deferment during the

She added that unlike in the past, it is uncommon for the majority of today’s children to have a grandparent who grew up on a farm. This means that people are becoming “less and less aware of where their food comes from,” Fox said. Most of today’s society is far removed from producing its own food, Kalcevic said. “The further removed we are, the more fearful we become” of the food we eat, Kalcevic said. “CommonGround helps consumers understand that farmers are regular people who are eating the same food that everybody else is

Vietnam War because I was a college student. That war was looked at very unfavorably by college students. Maybe you remember? Crewcut ROTC classes would march across our campus, and be heckled. At night, on my little black-andwhite television, I’d watch for the score of the Dodgers’ game and the score that day in Vietnam. If it came to making any kind of insightful commentary about the challenges to the human spirit in wartime, I wouldn’t know what I was talking about. The veteran I lived with for the first 17 years of my life eventually opened up about his service, but like everything else he spoke about (except Democrats and Ohio State), he did it with restraint and limited emotion.

serving their families.” There are a lot of misconceptions out there about what farmers and ranchers do, said Tucker, who lives on a small-acreage ranch near Bennett and raises sheep and horses. But overall, man or woman, “everybody in the agriculture industry wants a safe food supply,” Tucker said. Although production agriculturalists are a small percentage of the U.S. population, she said, no matter if you’re in Denver or New York, through social media, you can connect with someone who knows a rancher or farmer. And most likely, they would be willing to bring you out to their ranch or farm to help you better understand the industry and where your food comes from, Tucker said. “We’d love to show you what we do,” she said, “because we’re pretty proud of it.”

I am not an extroverted American patriot. I am not an extrovert at anything. The uproar about the national anthem protests hasn’t moved me very much. I think it is misdirected energy, all around. I have told this story before. A few years ago I went to a regional airport that was hosting a restored B-17, just like “Smoky Liz II,” the one my father flew 30 times. You could go in it for a few dollars, and go up in it for a few dollars more. I didn’t feel like I deserved to do either one. I cried that day, and now that my father is on a shelf behind me as I write this, I know I will again on Nov. 11. Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident.

I am a proud Viet Nam-Era U.S. Army Veteran. I served in Korea from 1968-1969. I was fortunate to go from mechanized infantry to an Army Education Specialist. I was the NCOIC for the West Camp Casey Education Center and part of the HHQ & Band Support Co for the 7th Infantry Division. Camp Casey was right outside Dongducheon.

olleyball is a sport that I never connected with, probably because of my introduction decades ago in elementary school. Half of the physical education class was stationed on each side of the net and I never was able to touch the ball. So obviously I had no feel for the game. However, after OVERTIME watching girls play volleyball the past few years, I have a new appreciation for the sport. The all-classification Colorado State High School Volleyball Championships will be Nov. 10-11 at the Denver Coliseum Jim Benton and it will provide a chance for fans to watch some remarkable athletes. It appears that more girls are being drawn to volleyball instead of basketball. According to National Federation of State High School Associations national participation figures from 201617, there were 444,779 volleyball players compared to 430,368 basketball players. In Colorado, there were 9,446 volleyball participants with 7,082 volleyball athletes. Several area high school coaches offered opinions about the participation spike of girls volleyball, and topping the reasons was the idea that the game is more fun. Also volleyball is less physical than basketball and involves less running. The growth of club teams initiating youngsters to the game has spurred interest. Plus volleyball can be played on three courts hardwood, sand and grass. One thing for sure, there will be plenty of excitement and cheering from players on the court at the state tournament. There will definitely be some taller girls and some shorter, but most have the quickness, vertical leaping ability, agility and mental toughness to play. One warning for those watching matches for the first time. Don’t head to the concession stands during a set that might appear to be lopsided or over. Momentum swings in volleyball happen as fast as one can change the television channel with the remote control. A fivepoint run by one team can be countered by a seven-point run by the opposition. Everybody enjoys watching the spikes of attackers, the accurate passes of a setter and the acrobatic digs on defense, but serves and serve receiving are two of the most important and sometimes overlooked parts of the game. And there is also strategy involved in volleyball, but I’ll save comments of that for another day after I watch a few more matches and learn more. SEE BENTON, P31

Area football teams set for playoffs BY STAFF REPORT

Trojans place third at state Thornton gymnastic team’s ﬁnish highest in school history BY BY TOM MUNDS TMUNDS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Thornton’s 2017 gymnastics team set new school marks as they finished third in at the Oct. 5 Class 5A state meet held at Thornton High School, the highest state finish in school gymnastics history. “I was so excited by our performance at the state meet. This is the best team I have ever coached,” Trojans Coach Paul Sailas said. “I am very proud of this team and all we accomplished this season. We will have a number of key seniors to graduations but we are very deep this season so I expect the young gymnasts we have with us to step up so we will be just as strong if not stronger next season.” He said he has 43 girls on the roster this season so the Trojans are the largest high school gymnastics team in the state. He said expects the team’s success this season will spark additional interest so the Trojan team will be as large or maybe a little larger next season. “Just about all the girls on our team compete in gymnastics all year,” the coach said. “They compete with us during the high school season and compete with club teams the rest of the year. Some of our girls also compete in other sports for Thornton. I have some girls who are divers plus some of the girls

compete in pole vault for the track team.” The Trojans are one of 18 Class 5a gymnastics teams. The advanced to the Nov. 2 state meet where the team champion and all-around champions are crowned. Pomona won the state team title with a score of 188.075 and Thornton finished third with a score of 184.125. As the name indicates all-around gymnasts compete in all four meet events, the vault, uneven parallel bars, beam and floor exercise. Pomona sophomore Kaylie Berens won the state all-around title with a score of 38.8 and Trojan gymnast Halle Bell finished ninth with a score of 37.025. The top 15 in each event at the Nov. 2 competition advanced to the Nov. 4 state individual finals. Berens earned her spots in the competition on uneven parallel bars, the balance beam and floor exercise. She finished ninth in floor exercise, 11th on uneven parallel bars and 14th on balance beam. Bell, a senior, said she got into gymnastics at a young age. “I got started in the sport when the owner of her club gym met me in a park when I was three and told my Mon I should be in gymnastics. Mom agreed and I have been at it ever since,” Bell said. “I tried other sports when I was younger but nothing worked out so I focused on gymnastics.” She said she likes gymnastics because it is a diverse sport and works out your whole body plus the sport is a lot of fun. “Now that the high school season is complete I plan one more season

with my club which will wrap up my gymnastics competition career,” she said. “I plan to go to college but not to compete in gymnastics. But I want to continue to be a gymnastics coach for young kids because it is so much fun working with them and watching them improve their skills.” Mountain Range High School gymnasts competed in the Nov. 2 preliminaries but the team didn’t w finish in the top 10. Ali Huppert had the best finish for a Mountain Range gymnast as she was 40th in the field of 70 athletes in floor exercise.

Seedings and pairings for the Class 3A, 4A and 5A state football playoffs were announced Nov. 5. There were 12 area teams that made the playoff brackets. The 16-team playoff brackets include either automatic league champions or at-large teams determined by final RPI standings, a form of computer ranking. First-round games are set for Nov. 10-11.

World Western dressage champ is at home in Colorado Frances Carbonnel grew up in Wyoming and has been riding since early age BY JULIE A. TAYLOR SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

For the fifth consecutive year, Frances Carbonnel of Castle Rock reigns as champion in the Western dressage world. During the last week of September, Carbonnel participated in a musical freestyle competition, where she bade her horse to passage, piaffe and pirouette. In other words, her horse can dance professionally on command. The 2017 Western Dressage World Championship Show in Guthrie, Oklahoma, held about 800 rides, but an 18-year-old Andalusian stallion named Esteban B and his 68-year-old rider stole the show as Carbonnel took home two world championships. With the help of Jubilee Banjo, who she calls her “mutt: an Andalusian mixed with Heinz 57,” she also earned four reserve championships. Carbonnel grew up in Wyoming, and moved to the area in 1980. Her parents promised her first horse at 13, but after begging and pleading, Lady was hers two years ahead of schedule. “When my folks got me that horse, they cut off all of her mane so I’d have nothing to hold onto,” she said. “They said, ‘When you learn to ride we’ll buy you a saddle.’ ” Despite having no mane to grab onto, no saddle, and needing to scour 500 acres each time she wanted to practice, young Carbonnel learned to be an excellent rider.

Jubilee Banjo holds a special place in the heart of his owner, Frances Carbonnel, and consistently ranks almost the best horses in Western Dressage. JULIE A. TAYLOR The Western Dressage Association of America started six years ago, and asked Carbonnel, now a recipient of a gold medal at the Grand Prix level from the United States Dressage Federation, to be a founding member to help strike a balance between dressage and Western riding. “My stallion Fino and I worked many years for that, patiently training and competing up through all the levels, so it is the most expensive piece of jewelry I own,” she said. Carbonnel said she prefers Western because it’s a little softer, and she found English to be extremely stress-

ful for herself and her horse. She now does three to five shows each year, as well as exhibitions like Boulder County Fair’s Ballet on Horseback, a staple in her routine since her friend started it 17 years ago. “At all of the shows, I ride,” she said. “But more importantly my students ride, and that carries on my legacy.” She has countless students, some of whom she calls ‘sweetie’ and has been meeting for lessons for the last 20 years. One of her fondest memories around the barn happened about five years ago when she had a knee

replacement, and realized how supportive her students were. “They really helped me literally get back on my feet and into the saddle again, and my horses seemed to understand and be especially gentle too,” she said. A month later, she was riding and teaching again. During a recent lesson, Carbonnel called out to her student, “Sit down in your saddle. That’s what you bought it for.” Later during a lull, she talked with the student about her hip coming slightly forward, and how the horse fishtailed in response. “Your horse is your best instructor. I’m just the one who tells you what she’s thinking,” she said. Aside from teaching students, she also teaches trainers. For the last six years, she’s traveled across the country, working with about 450 trainers with the Train the Trainers program. She is now totally devoted to her horses and her work as a trainer. “I am married to my vocation now,” Carbonnel joked. “I am afraid my horses are my kids.”

Why Westminster Public Schools? For a community to prosper and thrive, it needs a strong educational system and that is exactly what Westminster Pubic Schools provides. In WPS, all students are pushed to fulfill their unique potential and given the tools to lead a successful life where they support their family and community. WPS believes the most important day in a studentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life is the DAY AFTER GRADUATION!

Competency Based System CBS requires students to prove mastery and understanding of a topic before moving to the next learning level.

Career Technical Education WPS is expanding its CTE program so students can walk off the graduation stage and into a well-paying job.
