Hunter’s Grill Offers a Quality Experience at Value Pricing By Jan Sciacca
H
unter’s Grille boasts of a top notch staff and a loyal clientele who loves the unique menu. That same clientele has helped spur an enthusiastic and growing Sunday brunch crowd. The restaurant known as Hunter’s Grille, 51 Erie Parkway, existed under three other names and ownerships before owners Don Hess and Mandy Curl purchased it in April 2014. Don admits to a rocky start when news of a “soft” opening somehow permeated Erie neighborhoods and unexpected crowds converged on the restaurant. With his new staff, new menu and food for only those he was expecting, it was overwhelming. Before he knew it, the restaurant, which hadn’t opened yet, was receiving less than stellar reviews. All that has changed. The restaurant is large and can accommodate 200 in its restaurant/bar area and another 60 on its two patios. Don and Mandy sold their Estes Park restaurant in February so Don now spends his days at Hunter’s Grille. His attention to detail shows. For those who haven’t been to Hunter’s Grille, you’re in for a treat. The menu has appetizers that range from Buffalo wings to Calamari to Rocky Mountain Oysters. The salad offerings are gourmet in nature
and include selections of salmon, grilled chicken or juicy marinated grilled steak. With 10 dressings available, there is one to please everyone. There are two types of Don’s award-winning chili, assorted beef, seafood and chicken sandwiches. The menu also sports BBQ, burgers of all types, including veggie, elk and buffalo, 5 premium beef steaks, two types of trout, pecan salmon and the list goes on. Hunter’s Grill is value priced, with entrées listed at $10 or higher. The steaks are superb quality and priced at nearly half what the going rate is at comparable restaurants. Hunter’s Grill was the location for a recent Erie Rotary Club social time. There I learned from locals Jan deLuise and Ila Mettee-McCutchon that I should try their favorite appetizer picks of Calamari and artichoke cheese dip. They recommended the pecan salmon or a three meat sausage plate as a main course. The recent brunch offering on Sundays has been a huge hit with the community. The Sunday before I met with Don, the restaurant had served 60 dozen eggs. Brunch is served Sundays, 9am-2pm and consists of traditional, “favorites,” skillets, omelets, waffles and stuffed baguettes. Hunter’s Grille carries 12 beers on tap
“90% of the food offerings we serve, we make from scratch.”

and offers seasonal beers as well. The ambiance and the 45’ bar is a good meeting spot for imbibing in the daily special of $1.50 draft beer. Don Hess affirms, “90% of the food offerings we serve, we make from scratch.” Don typically makes all the chili gravies, sometimes arriving as early as 4 a.m. to start his recipes. He shared that he’s won a chili cook-off two years in a row. When I asked what was in his secret recipe, he became passionate in his explanation, like an artist explaining the blends and textures in a painting. He also shared that Jack Nicholson was present at one of the chili cook-offs. The picture he presented indeed showed Jack and Don together at the contest. Don has lived an interesting life. He’s a chiropractor by education but chose not to practice. Before buying Hunter’s Grille, he and his wife Mandy owned a restaurant in Wellington for three years. Prior to that in 2008, they purchased and operated Hunter’s Chop House in Estes Park. Before
Owners and husband and wife Don Hess and Mandy Curl venturing into the restaurant industry, Don and Mandy owned a commercial printing business in Colorado Springs for 6 years where they employed 45 employees. The original link or interest in food for Don goes back to his mother, who had a fascination for gourmet recipes. Don explained that his mother would either eat somewhere or see a recipe somewhere and decide she would make it at home. He remembers his mother being determined to serve a stuffed squid like she had seen in a magazine, even though home to them was a South Dakota farm, where Don was raised. Don credits his father and mother with showing him the creation/discovery process. Later he became aware of the commercial food environment when he worked as an Air Force health inspector. When not at the restaurant, Don likes to cook from scratch, hunt, fish and snowmobile. Mandy likes to visit her family in England, jet ski and read.

I respect and love her more than My father-in-law and my uncle were men words could ever express. In humanly who were the fathers of six children. And those children raised children. And many are changed by the lives of those two men. And my life is forever changed because of those two men. On December 9, I looked into the eyes of my father-in-law as he left this earth. His son and his daughter held each of his hands. It was hard, yet it was peaceful. I know Jesus was with him. On December 31, my uncle was reunited with my aunt. And I believe there was rejoicing in Heaven. Because of these two men, my life is forever changed through my husband, Mike, and my cousin, Carma. Carma is the first born in our generation of cousins, nieces, nephews, etc. She’s the oldest of us all, I write with a twinkle in my eye. I’ve known her my whole life.

Erie Police Department Working Within the Community in Non-Traditional Ways or almost 13 years the Erie Police and their families, and one young adult FJustice Department has housed the Restorative in Restorative Justice processes. Eight Partnership of Erie. Restorative community members who were harmed Justice is a conflict resolution program that treats crime as harm done to someone and/ or to the community. Restorative Justice is a program embraced by Colorado State legislators (HB 13-1254, HB 15-1094) and is being implemented across the State. The Restorative Justice Partnership of Erie utilizes well trained volunteer facilitators to bring the person(s) who did the harm together with those who have been harmed to talk about what happened, who was harmed, and what kind of repair needs to be done. Some of these cases come to the Restorative Justice Program instead of through the usual judicial process and sometimes the program is a part of the diversion sentence that the court hands down. In the first four months of 2015 the program has met with 20 juveniles,
in these cases have been served by the process, including one HOA, and one new housing development. A total of 148 volunteer hours have been spent administering Restorative Justice in Erie during this time. New this year, the Erie Police Department is in the process of creating a Youth Advisory Board (YAB). The purpose of the YAB is to give the youth of Erie a voice in their community. Some of the goals may be to identify issues, provide education and enhance the relationships between the Police Department and the youth of Erie. Both of these programs are always looking for adult and youth volunteers. If you are interested in volunteering, please contact Sarah Lambert at 303-926-2800.

A LETTER FROM MAYOR TINA HARRIS ERIE POLICE STATION & MUNICIPAL COURT BUILDING UPDATE DELIVERING OUR PROMISE TO YOU One year ago we asked for your support in making a long-term investment in our community. We asked you to vote “Yes” for our new Police Station and Municipal Court building. In exchange for your support, the Town promised to deliver you a good value on your investment. As we all know, voters overwhelmingly approved funding for the new building. You did your part by supporting this strategic investment and for that we say “Thank You!” I am happy to report your confidence in us was well placed as we are now delivering on our promise to you the citizens of Erie.
Good news for your pocketbook! For a homeowner with a residential property valued at $300,000, taxes will increase by $20.97 per year - and not the $36 per year we previously estimated. We are happy to pass these savings on to you. THE FINANCING: The sale of the General Obligation Bonds for the construction of the new Police Station and Municipal Court building was successfully completed. In fact, S&P rated the bonds AA+, one level below its highest AAA rating. The effective rate of the bonds is 3.24%. This rate is below the 5% rate assumed for the ballot question approved by voters on April 1, 2014. The ballot question that was approved established the maximum debt allowable as $6.2 million with a total repayment cost not to exceed $11.6 million. However, after the bond sale was complete, the actual total repayment cost will be $9.8 million. This represents a
saving of $1.8 million to Erie residents over the life of the bonds. We are fortunate to have a team of experienced staff and outside counsel who work diligently to maintain our town’s strong financial position. Speaking for the entire Board of Trustees, I commend our Town Administrator A.J. Krieger, Finance Director Steve Felten, our underwriters Stifel, Nicolaus & Company and our bond counsel Butler Snow, LLP. THE BUILDING: Immediately following the election results, Department of Public Works staff, the project management team and contractors began working diligently to ensure construction would meet the Board’s goal for a summer 2015 completion. It was late August when site work began. In November, crews poured the foundations. During the first quarter of this year, wall panels were poured on site, allowed to
cure and then “tilted” into place; steel columns and roof joists were erected and the framing of the curved entry wall began. Thank you to our Director of Public Works Gary Behlen and Project Coordinator Raelynn Ferrera for keeping this critical capital improvement project moving forward. Managing all of our capital projects responsibly and transparently is central to maintaining Erie as a quality community that is financially viable for the short and long term. And that is what we will continue to do. Promise! Sincerely,
Mayor Tina Harris, Town of Erie This Letter from the Mayor was originally included in the May/June Erie Edition published by the Town of Erie.

Barb Coffan Portrays the World to the Deaf By Jan Sciacca
R
ecently when we communicated with Erie resident Barb Coffan, we found her at a hospital in Aurora interpreting for a Deaf patient. She had been doing so for 10 hours. She brings the world alive to those who are Deaf, hard-of-hearing, Deafblind, or oral. Barb holds certifications that most of us wouldn’t understand – CSC (Comprehensive Skills Certificate), OTC (Oral Transliterating Certificate), SC:L (Specialist Certificate: Legal), including a Colorado Legal Interpreting Certificate. She is qualified to interpret in a variety of legal situations and is qualified to work as an oral interpreter, which is one who makes spoken English visible to a consumer who relies on lip-reading. She loves helping those who are challenged in the auditory area and is active in the Deaf Ministry program at East Boulder Baptist Church, 7690 East Baseline Road, Boulder. The Deaf Ministry at East Boulder Baptist Church was started in 1991. All special events of the church and Deafled events and special separate worship
services are interpreted. Deaf and hardof hearing children are also welcome in the Deaf Ministry. Deaf Sunday School Class is held every Sunday at 9 am in the Fellowship Hall. Advance notice is requested for children so that there is time to prepare for one’s child. Annually, EBBC sends Deaf people and interpreters to the Southern Baptist Conference for the Deaf. The church’s annual Deaf Ministry Christmas Party has become renowned state-wide. EBBC’s Deaf Ministry shares, “Some Deaf people do not understand the Bible because it may be too hard to read. It is written in English, and English is not our first language. American Sign Language is our language. Now there is a Bible for us! ‘The Deaf Bible’ is designed for those of us who have a difficult time reading English. The entire New Testament and parts of the Old Testament are now ready for one to view and understand. There is a free, full version app to download onto your I-Phone, I-pad, I-touch and Android. Wi-Fi is required for streaming. English Standard
Version is also available. You can find it at http://www.bible.is/ASL.” If you are a hearing person who wants to learn how to start a Deaf Ministry in your church or learn sign language, or learn how to be a professional interpreter, EBBC has a free Interpreter Training Program. There are no classes and training occurs through mentoring. Since 1990, the church has trained nearly 85
interpreters who have helped start other deaf ministries elsewhere in the country. Currently there are 13 interpreter mentors and interpreters-in-training at EBBC. Donations for the Deaf Ministry are always welcome. Contact East Boulder Baptist Church at 303-499-3553 or ebbc@ eastboulderbaptist.org. Barb Coffan can be reached at CoffanB@juno.com.

Attn: United Power Customers - Your Cash Is Waiting! By Cristi Benavides
M
ore and more homeowners are switching over to solar power. Several experts have stated in the media that 2015 is the year to make the switch, and here’s why: Solar is not just good for the planet; it’s good for your bank account! Install a home solar power system and your utility company pays you a rebate based on your system’s size and your home’s energy production. Basically, it’s a little reward for producing your own power and alleviating your home’s consumption off the main power grid. Why this is good for United Power customers: U.P. chooses to give their
customers a rebate upfront, rather than stretching it out in small monthly payments like other Colorado utility companies. Once your solar power system is installed, you’re seeing a nice, fat check in the mailbox from United Power. But wait, there’s more! Switch over to solar, and you’ll save money in other ways too. Not only will you earn a sizable rebate check from your utility company, but you’ll also receive a 30% federal tax credit and enjoy predictable energy rates for years to come; increase your home’s property value and even help your home sell 3 times faster
too. Simply put, solar is now the cheaper, cleaner, smarter way to power your home and put cash back in your pocket. With Google’s $860 million investment in SolarCity, and a carefully planned, fair business model, American’s can now make the switch to a cleaner, smarter energy choice and save money instantly. For $0 down and $0 cost out of pocket, Americans in 18 states can now lease, buy, or simply use SolarCity as their new energy provider, and pay less per kilowatt than the larger utility companies charge. SolarCity is the nation’s leading home solar installation
company, with a new customer signing up every 2 minutes and over 210,000 served and counting. Don’t wait! Switch to solar now before your Rebate with United Power decrease further and the 30% federal tax credit lasts. The sooner you get onboard and switch, the more money you’ll save. For more information on how you can make the switch to solar, contact your local SolarCity Field Energy Consultant, Eric Kleffner to schedule your free consultation. 720-227-3748 ekleffner@solarcity.com

Caring 4 Paws Offers Security and Peace of Mind By Jan Sciacca
L
ori Lambert King is the owner of Caring 4 Paws LLC, a new Erie-based professional pet care company. Lori’s experience in caring for dogs, cats, horses, birds - pets of all kinds - extends over 30 years. In addition to bringing her pet sitting services to Erie, she and Caring 4 Paws offer dog walking, pet taxi and overnight care. Professional pet sitting is a serious business. Without the right training, many things can happen and be traumatic to one’s beloved pets. Lori reminds us that professionals are trained to deal with emergencies, whether it is with the pets in their care or the client’s home. Lori arrived in the area in May 2014 after Thomas, her husband of 18 years, accepted a Colorado position with Level 3, a company where he has been employed for 18 years. The Colorado move initiated Lori closing her pet sitting business in PA and saying goodbye to many furry friends and clients. The company’s service area now includes Erie, North Broomfield, some parts of Lafayette and North Thornton.
After a long corporate world career, Lori discovered that providing pet care offered a way for her to spend time with all the animals she loved so dearly and still be able to make a living. Although Caring 4 Paws was started in Colorado in April 2015, Lori has been in the pet sitting business in PA and VA since 2008. In Northern Virginia she “accidentally” landed a fantastic job with a well-known and respected pet sitting company. She shares, “I was able to explore and learn everything about the profession from the Best in the Business, and I had the epiphany: I love this job! And I’m pretty good at it. My life was forever changed.” Lori has had a strong connection and compassion for animals since she was a young child. She has had dogs, cats, rabbits, a guinea pig, hamster, ferret, horses and two very rambunctious mini horses. Lori currently shares her home with Brie, her elderly German Shepherd, Buddy her silly Golden Retriever and mascot for Caring 4 Paws and Mochi, her lion head rabbit. When Lori needs a stress release she spends time with Mask, a horse she has
raised since a baby. Lori declares Thomas to be “a wonderful man that has supported her through the wacky hours and crazy schedule that pet sitters keep.” Lori is an advocate for Animal Rescues and Adoption and contributes to local rescues, as well as the ASPCA. She also volunteers with The Golden Retriever Freedom Rescue. She has studied Canine/Equine Massage Therapy and is certified in Pet First Aid and CPR. Caring 4 Paws takes each and every job seriously. Lori recently completed a pet sitting job in the Thornton area. Her client Krista gave her an impeccable review on Yelp. An excerpt from Krista J. says, “Luckily for us, we found Lori and Caring 4 Paws. Every day we got a check in message from Lori with a picture of our “kids” and notes on whether everyone was eating, playing and snuggling. We came home to a fully documented diary of their staycation with Lori as well. It was a pretty rainy week and she took the time to mop up our floors so we didn’t come home to a mess. She brought in the mail, alternated lights and even noticed the neighbors had put the garbage/recycling out so she took ours out too! She was so incredible I just left a house key with her because she is now our permanent pet sitter. This is the place to call when you need pet sitting. Highly recommended, she’s amazing with pets. Thanks Lori!” Caring 4 Paws clients are loyal. Another compliment to Lori was when 2 clients changed their vacation plans just so she could care for their pets. Lori was already booked the dates of the clients’ original vacation. The clients weren’t willing to have someone else take over the job of caring for their pets, so they changed their vacation. Caring 4 Paws offers a complimentary first visit to anyone who has adopted or rescued a pet in the last year. The firm also gives $10 referral credit to clients who refer them to someone that books their services. The meet and greet for new clients is always complimentary.
Caring 4 Paws LLC offers service 365 days a year and is Licensed, Bonded, Insured, Background checked and Pet FirstAid and CPR trained. Its office hours are: Monday – Friday, 7am-9:00pm, Saturday 7am-2pm and Sunday 7am-12pm. Contact information is: 720.507.PAWS (7297) for phone, caring4paws.com for website and info@caring4paws.com for email.

Fitness Training and Injury Recovery Work Best Together
W
hether you’re someone who exercises regularly or you just started, you’ll most likely deal with an injury at some point in your life, even if it’s caused by ice, a car accident, sports injury, etc. I’ve recently experienced this myself with tearing a meniscus in my knee up at a ski resort this spring. Many people are unaware that fitness training and injury recovery work best together. After any injury you should discuss treatment options with your doctor, as they may recommend surgery and/or a brace for different activities. Other factors that will have an impact on how quickly you return to regular activity include age, your fitness level prior to the injury, and the length of time since the injury occurred. You’re often able to continue fitness training while healing from an injury by
staying active and working the parts of the body that are not injured. You’ll need a short time to let the injured body part decrease in swelling , then you’ll usually start slow with careful stretching and isometric exercises of the injured area. Too often the tendency is to stop exercising all together once an injury occurs, and this will just prolong things. The fastest way to return to normal activity is to give your body the time it needs to rebuild its strength and conditioning by doing a little more each day and keeping the rest of your body in shape. The goal will be to gradually return to or near your previous level of fitness without overdoing it and you need to listen to your body. You’ll be testing the injured area as you work your way up by increasing time and intensity of exercise that puts pressure on the injured area. Given the right conditions, your body will recover in time. For me personally, the progress with my knee has gone quickly and I’ve been able to be physically active again. With my past experience of being a therapist in a

hospital and currently a personal trainer, the doctor was confident that my own therapy and training would help it recover along with me eating healthy nutrition from the inside. If you’ve experienced an injury in the past and want to return to being active and fit again, then consider working with a personal trainer that will have an understanding of your condition and work with you and your doctor. I can provide a custom training program that will help get you back to the fitness level you want by making modifications as you progress. I also offer a ladies only fitness group on Wed mornings in Erie. Please contact Tracy Rewerts, NASM CPT, FNS, WFS at www. TimeForChangePersonalTraining.com or 303-828-2856 for more information.

Doug Wiesman Doug Wiesman (Douglas) aka Stereo Doug and Captain Douger departed this world on May 18, 2015 in search of “That One Particular Harbor”. Doug was born in Dayton Ohio to Betty (Meadows) and Arthur Wiesman. Younger brother to Duane and older brother to Paul (Tamea) Wiesman and Pamela (Greg) Wiesman Herrin. He graduated from Centerville High School in 1975 and Sinclair Community College in 1977. He married Joanie Lockhart in 1979, (they divorced in
2005), migrated to Colorado in 1980 and fathered Erin and Breezy (Brianna), the loves of his life. He owned and operated Accent Auto Sound for 30+ years. Doug had the heart of an adventurer, explorer and music lover. Hiking 14ers, skiing (both water and downhill), camping, hunting, scuba diving, live music, world traveler and captaining his boat, (the other love of his life) were his passions. He was a fervent Parrothead and never missed a Jimmy Buffet concert starting in 1980. Doug could often be found at local live music events totally immersed in the music.
Doug will be missed by many; including his “You are my Sunshine!” 2 year old granddaughter Adalynn Rose and his close friends Cheryl Stenson Zaruba, John Ruppert, Gene Hunnel and Jeff Anderson. Services were June 5 at New Creation Church with Rev. Rob Thomas officiating. In lieu of flowers, please make donations to Adalynn Rose College Fund. Bon Voyage, Captain Douger.

From refugee to aristocracy: Erie woman’s life in war-torn Germany As told to Jim Stull, Author, Images of America: Erie Editor’s Note: This is the third part of a six part series. The person featured in this series wishes to remain anonymous
Part three: Life as a refugee We walked three to four days, arriving in Sudetenland, an area that had been controlled by Germany and Czechoslovakia at different times. Hitler’s troops occupied the Czech side, so we stayed in a farmhouse on the German side, with a couple in their fifties. We were able to stay there because the mayor of the town had found places for refugees coming from the east. We had a room where all our relatives gathered together. We lived there for three months. We heard the war was over and that it would be safe to go back to Hennersdorf. We packed up two of my cousin’s bicycles and rode home cautiously. We knew home was now occupied by Poles, with Russia’s
support. We were advised that we would likely not be able to stay there. When we arrived, my aunt’s house and guest house were ransacked. One wall had a large hole in it. My uncle found some boards to close it in and protect us from the weather. When the Russians occupied the village, they took livestock and anything else of value. When we attended church, we would see Polish people wearing clothing we had left behind. They took what they wanted. They considered our house and everything in it to be theirs. We lived there until about July or August. One morning before daybreak, someone knocked on the wall and told us this was their house and we had to leave. Everyone in the neighborhood had the same experience. Because Russia continued to move people out of Eastern Poland and into what used to be Germany, we were again homeless. We formed a group of about 200 refugees and carried what we could by hand.
We trekked 15 miles per day to GÖrlitz—a town about 1/3 in Poland and 2/3 in the Russian-occupied east zone. We crossed the Neisse River and went to Markersdorf in the Russian zone. We were sent to stay in a school where we slept on the floor; it had bathrooms. However, the authorities told us we couldn’t stay there long. The next day, my uncle said we should go into the countryside where farmers had bigger houses and knew they must take in refugees. After a three-hour walk, we arrived where we were allowed to stay in a barn. This is where we camped out for two weeks. Our dilemma was where to live if we had nothing but the clothes on our backs. We wanted to go home. To do so, we would have to take a freight train. Most trains were used to ship metal from disassembled German structures to Russia. We learned we might be able to sneak across the border on a boxcar. We

boarded one and were on our way home again. It was summer of 1945. We lived back in my aunt and uncle’s house, living on one end. Polish farmers harvested potatoes and rye and stored the crops in some of the empty houses. As kids, we had to go every day to shovel the crops to decrease the amount of moisture that would build up and likely spoil them. We could not attend school because we were not Polish. The area was still under Russian influence, so we needed to be careful about everything we did. Part four will be published in the July issue.
