Death of Delta man labeled ‘suspicious’ Family identifies deceased as Chad Koch, 27 BY PAT SUNDERLAND Managing Editor

The death of a 27-yearold Delta man Monday evening is being described as “suspicious” by the Delta Police Department, but family members are more forthcoming. They say Chad Koch was run down by an individual or individuals driving a black Suburban, then beat to death. Skylar Ransier is Chad’s cousin. She said she received a call from her uncle, saying something “bad” had happened to Chad. She immediately turned on the police scanner app on her smart phone. Between monitoring police activity and talking with family members, she believes she’s pieced together most of the story. Chad, she says, called the police for help Monday evening, saying someone was after him and intended to kill him. He was on his bike

riding toward the safety of a relative’s house when he was struck down near the stoplight at H-38 Road and Highway 50. At the scene Tuesday morning, she pointed out tire marks on the concrete which she believes identify the point of impact. After being hit by the Suburban, she says, Koch apparently dragged himself through the dirt in an unsuccessful attempt to escape his attacker. “You can see the marks on the ground,” she said. She was told the black Suburban was found abandoned five miles north of Delta, she added. DPD Chief Robert Thomas discounted that story, as well as rumors that shots were fired. He said an autopsy was being conducted Tuesday afternoon which would provide some answers. Investigators are still gathering evidence and interviewing witnesses, he added. According to the initial press release from the Delta Police Department, officers were called to the scene at 8:12 p.m. Monday.

Upon arrival officers found an adult male laying on the ground on private property. The adult male was deceased; the cause of death is unknown at this time. They declined to name the decedent pending notification of family. There is no risk to the community, the press release emphasized. Multiple agencies assisted in the initial investigation at the scene including the Delta County Ambulance District, Delta Fire Department, Delta County Coroner’s Office, Delta County Sheriff ’s Office, and the Colorado Department of Transportation. “We just want justice for Chad and for the children he left behind,” said Rhonda Stevens, another cousin of Chad’s. When asked about rumors that drugs were involved in the incident, Stevens asked, “If it was drug related, why would he call the cops for help?” Anyone with information concerning this incident is encouraged to contact the Delta Police Department at 874-7676.

Passing of seasons The glorious colors of fall are quickly passing in the high country, although the remants of the golds, reds and oranges can still be enjoyed. Fortunately, the color season continues at lower elevations, with the cottonwoods along streams and the Gunnison River beginning to display their golden fall cloak.

Family is determined to fight OSHA BY HANK LOHMEYER Staff Writer

The Esplins of Delta have put almost 40 years into running and building a family business at Delta Elevator. Now, an unannounced visit from a federal inspector has resulted in thousands of dollars in expense, fines and threatened fines for a long-

time Delta business. Delta Elevator has been in operation since the 1920s, explained Bob Esplin who owns the business with his son, Bobby. But the future of the enterprise could be in doubt now. That is because the Esplins are refusing to knuckle under to what they see as unfair, unreasonable

and intimidating tactics being used against them by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). When the OSHA inspector arrived unannounced at Delta Elevator in June, Bob Esplin at first objected. The business is run by the two owners and one hired hand.

DCMH recognized for ‘model’ trauma program BY PAT SUNDERLAND Managing Editor

Delta County Memorial Hospital’s trauma program received high marks during a recent review by the Colorado Department of Health and Environment. Margaret Mohan RN, one of the reviewers with the Colorado State Trauma Program, said at the trauma designation review committee in Denver, “Delta County Memorial Hospital is the model Level IV Trauma program in the State of Colorado and other Level IV hospitals should look to Delta as an example.” The hospital’s trauma program centers around the emer-

gency room, but also involves surgery, med-surg, physical therapy, the ICU, radiology and labs. “It’s really a team effort,” said acting hospital administrator Jason Cleckler. CDPHE uses ratings from I-IV to designate trauma facilities across the state, Level I being the highest. The state has three “do-it-all” facilities, all located in the Denver metro area. Level V is suitable for a rural clinic that sees urgent care, but typically doesn’t have an inpatient setting. Delta County Memorial Hospital is a Level IV facility, a designation that was renewed for the next three

years. “The review that took place at the end of August was an intensive look at the entire system, to make sure our quality of care and procedures are up to date,” Cleckler explained. The review team commended the hospital for its dedication to the program, the quality of the medical equipment at the facility and the strong support from the hospital board of directors and administrative team. Cleckler said Misty Sakala, trauma coordinator, deserves the credit for taking the program to the next level, and TRAUMA PROGRAM TO A3

It doesn’t have the three employees required for OSHA oversight. “He said the rules have been changed,” Esplin said. Bobby adds, “We asked to see the new rules and they have never shown us a copy.” It was then, Esplin explained to the DCI, the inspector threatened that if he was barred from entry that day he would return with a search warrant and other OSHA inspectors for a tour of the elevator “that will be much harder on you.” Esplin has since had second thoughts about his decision to let the inspector tour the elevator with a video camera in hand that day. “He said they were going to inspect every feed mill in Colorado,” Esplin said. The father and son didn’t hear anything more for about a month until one day the inspector arrived with a book of notes on his tour. Bobby did a walk-though with the inspector who pointed out where corrective action to improve safety could be taken. Bob states that the elevator hasn’t had more than a scraped knuckle injury in 25 years. During a tour of the elevator with the DCI, Esplin pointed out numerous places where safety fea-

Ballot initiative pamphlets available There are three ballot initiatives on the November 2012 ballot. Educational pamphlets are provided by The League of Women Voters at no cost. Ballot issues are explained and the pros and cons, as provided by the organizations supporting or opposing the initiatives, are included for each ballot issue. In addition, there is information on Colorado voting requirements, the election calendar, and much more. The ballot issues are also available in audio format at www.lwvco.org.

Pamphlets are available at the Delta County Clerk’s office, the Delta County Annex in Hotchkiss, all Delta County libraries, all town offices, Delta County Memorial Hospital, and Republican and Democratic headquarters. Please call Peggy Baxter at 856-6225 if you would like to make some copies available at your place of business. Be sure to pick up your copy of the ballot issues you will be voting on in November.

tures have been in place for many years before the OSHA inspection. Esplin also admits that some of the OSHA suggestions were useful. He adds that the inspector’s suggestions were all that were necessary for the business to comply with recommendations. In fact, after the inspector’s second visit, Bobby went right to work on the recommendations, even though the Esplins thought some were unnecessary. They spent about $5,000 on the corrective measures, they said. That’s not all. Bob and Bobby and their wives toiled for hours completing paperwork and creating documentation on company safety procedures for their one employee. It was only then that OSHA let the big hammer fall on Delta Elevator. In late August Delta Elevator received an “informal settlement agreement” from the Denver OSHA office. The agreement proposed the Esplins pay an additional $7,000 in penalties for the safety improvements they had already made. The amount of the penalties could be doubled. DELTA ELEVATOR TO A3

OPINION

LETTERS Do your homework Dear Editor: The three letters to the editor in the Sept. 26 DCI issue pretty much summed up which way our country is going and I thank them for voicing their opinion. $16 trillion in debt, over 8% unemployment, Obamacare, closed coal-power plant, regulation squeezing the life out of small businesses and the alienation of Israel, our strongest Middle East ally to name a few. It is hard for me to believe that people still think Obama is doing a good job. I truly feel 50% of this country is uniformed; they must be if they get their info from TV shows, like the View or Letterman. It is sad.

As someone from the Chicagoland area I am very familiar with the crooked politics that generates from Cook County. Believe me, Obama is a perfect fit. Government rules, not the people. Wake up citizens! Our politicians are employed by us. If we have someone working for us that doesn’t do a good job, they are fired, or nicer term, let go. Obama has done a terrible job. No matter what party you are affiliated with you have to see what is happening to OUR country. You want socialism, and then go live somewhere else where your taxes will be 80% of your salary. That is the route

Obama is taking our country. We need an experienced person who will correct the mistakes from the last 3.5 years and beyond and not create more. Romney has the experience and brought with him an economist, Ryan. A successful business person and an economist. Their philosophy is to empower people. They are a much better team than Obama and Biden, who spend and enable. Please do you homework — are you really better off than you were 3.5 years ago? Look at the stats, I doubt it. Mary Martindale Crawford

Obama versus Romney Dear Editor: This is the most emotional and irrational presidential campaign I have ever witnessed. By nature I am a Libertarian; however, I have to choose between a Democrat and Republican, or I will be throwing my vote away. Many of you may be in the same position. Here are my thoughts on who to vote for. Simply put, if you want more of the same, vote for Obama. If you want things to change, vote for Romney. Based on personal observations, hundreds of hours of reading books, articles, blogs, etc. these are the strengths and weaknesses of each candidate. President Obama is first of all an over-achiever. His credentials alone would have never gotten him the job. His lack of experience in leadership, finance, economics, business, budgeting, foreign affairs and history have hurt this country immeasurably. His presidency has been one of trial and error, mismanagement and poor communications. He has tried to hide these weaknesses by being ever-present in our lives and communicating his vision of how he would like things to go. He seems to have no clue as to how to get any of these things done. He has accomplished very few of his goals. Good presidents work every bill thru Congress by working with the opposition. This has not been done. As a result we have a divided country. This president’s primary strength is his speaking ability and his ability to make people like him in spite of the job he has done. He has been a non-stop campaigner for his “vision of how things ought to be”

but has never really filled in the details. Americans really don’t know yet who he is. His birth, upbringing, friends and mentors are the subject of much frustration and debate. The most amazing thing about all of that is that he has managed to achieve what he has. Extreme liberal, socialist, anti-colonial, radical, all these have been used to describe him. He says he is for the “common man,” the oppressed, those unable to help themselves. Is that enough? I will let you be the judge. Mitt Romney, on the other hand, is quite the opposite. His credentials are much more mainstream, visible and evident in nearly everything he does. His birth, family, upbringing and associates are there for all to see or inquire about. What you see is what you get. He has a history of leadership, management, finance, public service and hard work. His main fault is communicating his vision of the future. He has hard goals of reducing the deficit. He also wants to reduce the overall size of government and its interference in our lives. Looking at his record as governor of Massachusetts he certainly has had some success and some failure in all of those. He also has a record of getting things done and working with the opposition. His opponents say he is greedy, uncaring, and doesn’t understand the “common man.” I will let you be the judge of that. The realities of being president are much different than their campaign goals and speeches. Simply put the government almost never shrinks, deficits almost never go away, and a

president’s success or failure depends on a lot of things that he cannot control. Is the “common man” any better off under either a Democrat or Republican? Sometimes yes, and sometimes no. Do entitlements get cut or eliminated? No, they don’t. What’s different about this election? We are on the verge of some very serious financial challenges that can no longer be ignored. The consequences will be enormous if we don’t get our finances under control. We also face enormous security threats from underdeveloped and unstable countries that don’t share our values and goals. I can’t help but think that this next president will be challenged to the hilt to get things done. I hope you all will make the right choice. Jim Timmerwilke Cedaredge

Letter writer’s claims questioned Dear Editor: In Marc Kanter’s letter of Sept. 12, he stated that local billionaire Bill Koch was on the board of directors of the Smithsonian Institute. However, the institute’s web page lists only DAVID Koch as a member of the advisory board. Also I wonder about the claim that Bill Koch has “donated hundreds of thousands of dollars to the community.” Yes, thousands have been donated, mostly through his coal companies, but “hundreds” of thousands? Seems like the kind of exaggeration a politican would make. Wes Perrin Paonia

Give credit where credit is due Dear Editor: The North Fork Mosquito Abatement District has a comprehensive trapping program and sets traps regularly within the boundaries of the district from June to September. There are approximately 18 traps set weekly in the NFMAD district by the volunteers. There are 10 traps set by the Delta County Health Department, five in the Delta area and five in the Surface Creek area. The ONLY reason the health department knew that there was WNV in the early part of the season in the NFMAD district was due to the work of the NFMAD volunteers. Trapping mosquitoes is not that difficult, but, and this is a big but, you have to be very careful about using repellant! You can’t get repellant anywhere near the traps, you can’t have it on your hands, you can’t spray it on in between setting a trap here and setting a trap there. In other words, the trapping crews

put themselves at risk every time they go out! And that’s not the whole story: There are the counters and identifiers. Again, it is volunteers who count and identify every mosquito caught. The culex are separated off and sent down to the health department, which then forwards them to a lab where WNV testing is performed. When WNV is found in a batch, people in that area and the entire county are notified. The county has admitted that it does not have the personnel or funds to take over the 28 trap sites within the NFMAD District and Delta County. If it weren’t for NFMAD volunteers, there would be fewer mosquitoes trapped, identified, culex sorted and batches prepared for testing. No one would know that West Nile virus was active in the area or at the very least it would be less likely that people would know ahead of a human or animal case. Is

ignorance bliss? I heard someone smirk and make a negative comment about the appreciation party that was given for the volunteers. Give me a break. These people are doing a fabulous job, putting themselves at risk, and providing invaluable information to you and the Delta County Health Department. I heard Ken Nordstrom say over and over that, “We found the virus much earlier than usual.” We who? The NFMAD volunteer team in cooperation with Delta County — that’s who. I’m writing this because I would like everyone to know who should be getting the credit in the Hotchkiss and Paonia area for the early warnings and comprehensive monitoring. NFMAD. I just want to see credit served where credit is due. In appreciation for all who work to help to keep us informed. Keeping safe is a personal responsibility. Lulu Volckhausen Paonia

Do-gooders do good Dear Editor: I want to thank Dick Moore for his letter to the editor (Sept. 19 DCI) calling attention to the pervasive littering problem in Delta County. I share his disgust with the individuals who thoughtlessly dump trash on the roadside and our public lands, expecting the “trash fairies” to clean up after them. As a representative of local “do-gooders,” as Mr. Moore so aptly described the Conservation Center membership, I would like to remind him and the community about all the good that we do for Delta County. Last year alone, we helped private land owners protect 800 acres of wildlife and agricultural lands in permanent conservation easements, completed our 12th year of water quality and bacteria monitoring; collected 150 water samples for a selenium characterization study to evaluate the impacts of irrigation on water quality; brought 155 community members down the Gunnison River as part of our 13th annu-

al River Awareness Float Trip; hired local artists to install a river overlook platform at the Paonia River Park; organized a River Park volunteer clean-up day; organized over 1,300 volunteer work hours to remove invasive tamarisk and Russian olive trees along the river; published the 2012 Delta County Recycle Guide; successfully advocated for Delta County to install a free recycling center in Hotchkiss; organized over 300 volunteer hours for the Cherry Days Green Team and Zero Waste Zone; and sponsored Pick-Up America’s volunteer clean-up which collected 720 pounds of trash from local roads. We did this in addition to representing the hundreds of community members who asked us to fight an absolutely inappropriate lease sale that would allow drilling to occur next to our schools and water supplies. Maybe we are blowing our own horn, but the Conservation Center and our members do great work and we are an asset

to this community. Could we do more? Absolutely! Since we are a people-powered organization, we do as much as what the people of our community are capable and motivated to do. Do we pick up trash? Definitely! And we welcome anyone who is interested in making Delta County a healthier and less-littered place to stop by the Conservation Center’s office at 204 Poplar Avenue in Paonia. Ask about volunteer opportunities, become a member, or even sit in on our recycling or public lands committees. We can’t do it all, but the “do-gooders” of the Conservation Center sure do a lot. Why not join us? As our mission states, we welcome anyone who wishes to “protect, preserve, and enhance the natural, human, and economic resources of the North Fork of the Gunnison and the Lower Gunnison Watersheds.” Sarah Sauter Executive Director NFRIA-WSERC Conservation Center

Sustainable development draws a large crowd Dear Editor: On Sept. 22, three nationally known speakers came to the Performing Arts Center in Delta — Tom DeWeese, Dr. Michael Coffman and Michael Chapman, to educate citizens on sustainable development and Agenda 21. People attended from as far away as Aurora knowing the significance of

Consider before voting Dear Editor: Government dependency programs have jumped for the fourth year in a row, while an ever-shrinking number of we-the-taxpayers struggle to pay for them. Almost 50% of Americans pay no income tax to help fund the programs that almost 50% of Americans use for food, housing, school lunches, etc. This unsustainable system will surely collapse if we keep the same president. President Obama missed his daily INTEL briefings (not unusual) for several days before 9/11. The murders that day of our diplomats and Navy Seals in Libya were the result of a planned terrorist attack for which our embassy was inexcusably not adequately prepared or armed. This administration then unsuccessfully tried to convince us that the attacks were spontaneous demonstrations caused by an Internet video dis-

respectful of Mohammed. Obama should have been paying attention, but he thought that his election alone would magically change the world. Or he wanted the U.S. brought down a peg. Which was it? In 2008, candidate Obama pledged: “Under my plan, no family making less than $250,000 a year will see any form of tax increase — not your income tax, not your payroll tax, not your capital gains taxes, not any of your taxes.” However, the CBO just determined that Obamacare’s insurance mandate will tax six million Americans a minimum of $695 apiece in 2016, increasing through 2022. Almost five million of those people will have incomes well below the federal poverty level, according to the CBO. Another broken pledge. Vote wisely. Our future is at stake. Angie Many Eckert

the information that was being put forth. Public officials, both elected and appointed, and candidates were invited to attend, including Scott Tipton, Don Coram, Ellen Roberts, Montrose, Delta, and Mesa County commissioners, sheriffs and all school board members and superintendents in both Montrose and Delta. Tickets were purchased for all Delta school board members and the superintendent and two tickets were given to one member of the board in particular in Montrose because she is also a candidate for a commissioner seat. Knowledge of Agenda 21 and sustainable development runs far deeper than just knowing when it was signed onto, which appeared to be the extent of knowledge by Kjersten Davis at a debate I attended at the Holiday Inn Express. The United Nations’ Agenda 21, sustainable development, is the covert takeover of our nation through policies and regulations put forth by different agencies such as the Forest Service, BLM, EPA, OSHA, to name a few. United Nations mandates are also being implemented through foundations and organizations that offer grants to our counties, cities and towns when they buy into and become a part of those grants. If a public official or candidate doesn’t understand how these policies, that restrict private property,

are being implemented through these agencies, foundations and organizations, how can they, as servants of the People, stand between those policies and the People? I must say there were interested officials and potential officials that attended, namely, incumbent Montrose commissioner candidates David White and Ron Henderson, Mike Mason, a lawful write-in candidate for Delta County, Rose Pugliese, John Justmen candidates for Mesa County commissioner positions, Jack Flowers, commissioner position for Ouray County, Gary Ellis Montrose County commissioner, Kathy Ellis, Montrose City councilwoman, Montrose Sheriff Rick Dunlap, Kathy Svenson, Delta County school board member and Caryn Gibson, superintendent. The conference brought an audience of 250 concerned citizens so I may have missed one or two other officials but I’m thrilled that it brought the interest that it did of those seeking to know more and understand better United Nations’ Agenda 21 and sustainable development. For those that missed the conference, we are selling DVDs at a cost of $25 for a set of four. Checks can be mailed to Barbara Hulet 2218 5900 Road, Olathe, CO 81425. Make checks payable to SDA Conference. Barbara Hulet Olathe

Additions to the rec center aquatics complex and fitness area will be budgeted in 2013, Delta City Council members agreed after hearing rec center manager Wilma Erven say she already has the funds on hand. The capital project will include a 40x70-foot multipurpose room that will be used for dance classes, spin (bike) classes and tae kwon do. The room currently used for dance classes will be converted to a racquetball court, as originally designed. The cost for that addition is $322,000; the aquatics additions have been priced at close to $2.2 million, although Erven believes the renovations can be completed for less. Plus, she believes, an increase in revenues will “much” offset the expenditure because people who have complained that the water is too cool and the pool contains too much chlorine will be much happier with the warmer temperatures and UV filtration. The 6,000-square-foot addition will incorporate a new therapy pool, wellness pool and “lazy river” for walking. Warm water temperatures facilitate rehabilitation for patrons undergoing physical therapy and are beneficial for those who suffer from arthritis and joint pain. Erven has the funds in hand, thanks to voter approval of a 3/4¢ sales tax extension in 2010. The rec center also receives a quarter cent from the

city’s 3.9% sales tax on a permanent basis, to help cover operations and maintenance. Parks supervisor Paul Suppes is asking for increased funding for flowers and chemicals. He showed a conceptual plan of the landscaping which will complement the new sign to Devil’s Thumb Golf Course at Highway 50 and H38 Road. He received a grant of $8,000 for a water tap, irrigation, trees and seeding, but will need a budget increase to cover the flowers he plans to plant in that area. In addition, he told council members former city manager Joe Kerby worked out an agreement with Maverik, the new convenience store under construction at the corner of Highway 50 and 92, to place two flower beds along Highway 50 and one along Highway 92. The three flower beds, which would be the size of the median planters, are to be planted and maintained by the city. They’ll require 250-350 plants each. The news of this agreement came as a surprise to council members. Saying she felt “blindsided,” councilmember Mary Cooper asked if there is a possibility of cutting back on other remote parks to help cover the increased cost of the new flowerbeds. The alternate truck route and visitors’ center will create even more opportunities for landscaping and maintenance. The flowers are nice, but they’re also expensive to maintain, Cooper noted. “I’m going to agree with Mary here,” said councilmember Robert Jurca. “Something is going to have to give.” Budget discussions with other departments are ongoing.

Bobby, Franny, and Bob Esplin with some of the paperwork generated by their efforts to comply with OSHA rules. Their business, Delta Elevator, still faces threat of thousands of dollars in penalties in connection with OSHA-required work already completed at the elevator. The Esplins are standing up to the treatment they’ve received from the federal agency.

calls from OSHA pressuring them to sign, the Esplins aren’t signing. The OSHA document also proposes that the Esplins will agree to other points including the following: • Accept provisions of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970; • Waive rights to contest the penalties assessed in the agreement document; • Agree to submit to future OSHA “audits.” Bob Esplin replied to OSHA with an agreement document of his own requiring the following from OSHA’s Denver officials: • Provide certified proof of employment capacity with the agency; • Provide certified copies of oath of office and bond guaranteeing faithful performance of duties; • Provide certified copy of delegation of authority authorizing enforcement of federal law and to represent OSHA in the inspection; • Cite specific federal statutes and regulations that make Delta Elevator subject to OHSA jurisdiction; • Cite the federal statutes giving force and effect to the regulations that Delta Elevator has been charged with violating. Bob Esplin’s letter is dated Sept. 13 and it asks the OSHA officials to respond within 30 days. The Denver OSHA office did not respond by deadline to a DCI e-mail request for comment. Bob Esplin is standing up for his rights, and also for his family. “We have been in business in Delta 39 years as of August,” Esplin told the DCI. He and his wife have raised 12 children in the community. The OSHA payment plan of $292 per month for 24 months is money that, if the Esplins actually earn, is going to help pay their children’s and grandchildren’s college expenses, Bob said.

Intrado team supports housing projects Intrado, a Colorado-based company that assures 911 emergency alert systems work in America, sent 18 volunteer workers to assist in remodeling Deltaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hope House and a second family home in Lazear this past week. This is the third year Intrado has supported the work of Habitat for Humanity in Delta County. Brian Davenport, an employee of Intrado and son of Fred Davenport, a local builder in Delta, organized the philanthropic endeavor. Part of the team worked with local Habitat volunteers to paint, build an addition and remove old windows and faulty shingles at 260 Howard Street in Delta. Habitat is partnering with Drug-Free Delta County (DFDC) to provide transitional housing for persons in recovery from substance abuse. Earlier in the week, Habitat local volunteers Ed Bliss, Fred Davenport, Charlie Bishop, Felix Trujillo and Steve Herrera poured a foundation and pad for a new addition to the DFDC facility. The Intrado team also completely sheetrocked and replaced windows on a needy familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s home in Lazear.

Homeless shelter seeks home of its own After two seasons of operating in the basement of the Delta United Methodist Church, the volunteers and board of directors at the Abraham Connection/Delta County Homeless Shelter are ready for their own building.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have grown exponentially over the past two seasons of service,â&#x20AC;? said board president Cheryl Oeltjenbruns. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have loved serving our guests while housed at the church and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re very grateful to that congregation for their hospitality, but we know that we will only continue to grow. We need our own space.â&#x20AC;? The homeless shelter is open seasonally from Nov. 1 through April 30. During the past two seasons, volunteers spent over 7,800 hours providing 679 bednights and 1,126 meals. From season one to season two, both the number of guests served and the number of bednights/ meals increased threefold, Oeltjenbruns said. The board hopes to raise $275,000 through a combination of private donations, fundraisers and grants in order to purchase a building. This past summer, the board was able to raise about $8,000 from various

fundraisers. That money was added to the building fund. The board has nearly $25,000 set aside for the building purchase. Several grants have been submitted, and the board will be notified in December if it received any of those monies. The board of directors launched a capital building campaign on Oct. 1 to raise funds to purchase its own building. Through the â&#x20AC;&#x153;A Home of Our Ownâ&#x20AC;? campaign, individuals, businesses and civic organizations can buy a square foot or can sponsor a room. One square foot is $120, and can be paid at once or spread over 12 months. Two square feet is $200. Those who buy one or two square feet will be recognized on a donor plaque, which will be hung at the new shelter. There is also the opportunity to sponsor a room. At the $1,500 level, you can sponsor a counseling room or a computer room, which will be used for kidsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; homework help, to help guests search for jobs or apply for benefits. At the $2,000 level, you can sponsor our intake/ reception area, which is where guests are first screened for suitability for shelter each evening. At the $5,000 level, you can sponsor a family room, bathroom/showers, or separate sleeping areas for families, veterans, women and men. Lastly, for $25,000, you can sponsor a kitchen. All room sponsorships from $1,500-$25,000 will allow the donor or donors to name the room. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We encourage families or several groups to

go in together and sponsor a room,â&#x20AC;? said board member Kathi Bledsoe. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Your gift will truly make a difference in the lives of those we serve.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;All along we have said that the Abraham Connection is truly a community operation,â&#x20AC;? Oeltjenbruns said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t serving a lot of transients. We serve those in our community who have fallen on hard times. We can better serve our guests, and serve more guests, when we have our own space. And to do that, we again ask for the communityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s help.â&#x20AC;? The â&#x20AC;&#x153;A Home of Our Ownâ&#x20AC;? campaign will run through the end of October. All donations are tax-deductible. The board has put out a flier detailing the campaign. Pick one up

in Delta County businesses, or call the shelter phone at 773-8290 for a brochure to be mailed or e-mailed to you. Please also call that number for any questions, or to vol-

County audit shows finances in good shape BY HANK LOHMEYER Staff Writer

The Delta County Commissioners got a good report on county finances from auditor Pete Blair who delivered his 2011 audit report at a recent meeting. According to the audit report Blair delivered orally to the commissioners on Sept. 17, the countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s assets exceed its liabilities by $154 million, mostly in roads and other infrastructure. Other highlights of the report were that the county has $13.2 million in available cash reserves, $2.4 million of which is restricted for particular uses. The countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s general financial picture is greatly improved because it carries no debt. Blair was highly complimentary of the county finance department and

of Margaret Davey and Sandy Cross who keep track of county finances and documentation needed for the annual audit. County treasurer Jim Ventrello was also singled out by Blair for exceptional work handling county funds. In a separate item at the commissionersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; meeting, they discussed the issue of possibly divesting ownership of oil and gas mineral rights underlying 33 parcels that have other surface ownership. Two individuals recently contacted the county wanting to purchase the countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s oil and gas rights underlying their private surface ownership. County attorney Christine Knight told the commissioners that to divest any of the rights requires a public sale, according to state statute.

Two very different views of the community and its future were displayed at separate events in Delta County that took place within days of each other last week. The first event took place on Saturday, Sept, 22, when more than 300 local residents paid $8 each to attend a day-long seminar at the Delta Center. Organized by a local volunteer committee headed by Constitutional government advocate Barbara Hulet, the presentation featured three nationally-known speakers, Tom DeWeese, Michael S. Coffman and Michael Chapman. Each shared their years of research and documentation of a United Nations program launched in 1992, called Agenda 21. When Agenda 21 is fully implemented, they claim, it will supplant American national sovereignty and bring an end to American Constitutional government and its guarantee of individual freedom and liberty. The Agenda 21 speakers made the case that local comprehensive planning is one area where the UN Agenda 21 program for ultimate, topdown government control is undermining traditional American freedoms and creating a new global society. They say that Agenda 21 aims to restructure the American economy, its energy use, the media and education. Speakers said the Agenda 21 program is identifiable by a lexicon of politicallycorrect buzzwords that include the terms green, tolerance, global warming, multi-culturalism, sustainability, diversity and others. Four days later, on Wednesday, Sept. 26, the second event took place which tests the cautionary message of the Agenda 21 opponents. About 30 local elected officials, planning commission members, and staff from Delta County, City of Delta, Orchard City and Cedaredge gathered at Orchard City Town Hall for a seminar on “Planning 101.” Two officials from the Colorado Department of Local Affairs (DOLA) presented a program on “comprehensive local planning.” Those attending the DOLA session on Planning 101 at Orchard City are not people who anyone would believe are players in a global plan to restructure human society and usher in radical world government controls. They are the people that most folks in their communities know and may have voted for. They are professionals, retirees, newcomers and lifelong residents who have volunteered their time to help make their communities better places, or they are neighbors who work in positions of local government. So what, if any, is the connection between UN’s Agenda 21 program and the comprehensive plan-

Nationally-known speaker Tom DeWeese spoke to more than 300 paying listners at the Delta Center on Sept. 22. ning activities taking place on the local level in Delta County? The Planning 101 session didn’t make reference to any of the buzzwords said to be part of Agenda 21’s supposed new paradigm of thought, with one exception – “SmartGrowth” Andy Hill, DOLA director of the Community Development Office, began her presentation stating that DOLA provides only “technical and financial assistance” to community planning efforts which, she emphasized, are local. Her projector screen then filled with the image of a “SmartGrowth” guidebook used by DOLA and its Office of Smart Growth. A web search directs people to DOLA’s Community Development Office. The web search on “Smart Growth” also brings up links to national and world-wide programs. According to the Agenda 21 event speakers, “Smart-Growth” is a direct outgrowth of the UN’s program for “sustainable development and comprehensive planning.” Its goal, they say, is to remove natural resources and private property rights from individuals and replace them with government processes and government approvals. Hill’s presentation went on to give the local government planners useful tips on avoiding conflicts of interest, steering clear of legal pitfalls, handling ex parte contact situations, making proper motions, working with staff and various matters. Also, planning regulations are seen as necessary for government to ensure that developers are treated evenhandedly, and many citizens want growth and development controls in their communities. Other points in Hill’s Planning 101 presentation also included the following: • Slides portraying elected and appointed officials as clean-cut business types trying “to please everyone.” But citizen participants of planing meetings were portrayed as shouting and angry, making ugly facial expressions with negative body language and making rude gestures. • If one type of land use control doesn’t work, Hill advised the local planners to try others. There are dozens of dif-

ferent types of land use controls that can be used for a given purpose, and any two or three others might work in a particular situation. • Many planning commission members feel conflicted in their roles of “telling other people how to live.” • If an official in good conscience cannot support an official action, they are advised only to take notes, but to say nothing. They must vote with the “rules” and deal with their own private doubts and concerns at a later time. • There was emphasis on staging public events classroom style to enhance credibility, and on conducting public sessions to maintain control. • Hill referred to statutory requirements of the Colorado Open Meetings Law as “something nobody talks about anymore.” DOLA’s Community Development office offers

assistance through other programs of sustainability, historical preservation and Main Street revitalization. Agenda 21 became a public issue in Delta County when Roger Bentley stated his opposition to it in his bid for the Republican nomination for county commissioner. Bentley is a seven-year member of the Delta County Planning Commission.

Birds of the Western Slope A look at local birds with Evelyn Horn Yampa Valley Crane Festival I figured that if this festival could become a reality, it would be an astonishment. The promoters, those who opposed the crane hunt last spring, had too little time, no money and no experience in doing a festival. But wonder of wonders: the festival was a huge success. Most festivals start toward the weekend and end on the following Sunday. But this one started on Sunday! Crane viewing on the Nature Conservancy’s Carpenter Ranch, family activities, tours of the historic ranch house, a photography workshop, a picnic dinner and evening crane viewing, all geared to youngsters. Then on Monday, the activities, although similar, were geared toward the senior citizens of the area. When I first read the schedule draft, I thought, “Well, good luck.” But 175 people showed up for the opening events! On Tuesday and Wednesday, the events were held in the Bud Werner Memorial Library and the projection facilities there were excellent. A large screen, a hook-up from the laptop computers to a projection room above the meeting area made presentations clear and impressive. And the helper, Jennie, did a fine

job of helping the speakers. My presentations were well attended, as were those of Ken Strom

(Colorado Audubon) and Robert Skorkowsky (U.S. Forest Service). One of the pleasant additions was the continuously running video by Darlyne Merkel of Grand Junction: it presented endless scenes of our cranes. A surprise was the video called “Raising Kid Colt” by Faust and Bailey about a sandhill family in Homer, Alaska. Dr. George Archibald, the co-founder of the International Crane Foundation, spoke on Wednesday evening about high

altitude cranes: our sandhills that cross the continental divide and the five-pound Demoiselle that crosses the Himalayas. And now it’s over. I recall all of my concern and energy devoted to opposing the hunt of our sandhill cranes in northwestern Colorado last spring and I can consider that energy well spent. The crane-hunt proposal has been withdrawn and in its place is the inaugural Yampa Valley Crane Festival.

Contest winners are headed to Moose Manor BY BOB BORCHARDT Staff Writer

Although Sunday, Sept. 23 was more spectacular, “Color Sunday” (Sept. 30) turned out to be near perfect, as Grand Valley District Ranger Bill Edwards presented nine-year-old Jennifer Stuckenschneider and her parents, Tricia and Jack Stuckenschneider, with a certificate for a free overnight stay in the “Moose Manor” cabin on the Grand Mesa as part of the fifth annual Outdoor Heritage Day. This is the third year that the Forest Service has offered families a chance to win a free onenight stay in a National Forest cabin within the Grand Mesa National Forest as part of “Outdoor Heritage Day.” The “Moose Manor” cabin is located on the north side of the Grand Mesa National Forest, just off Colorado State Highway 65, within the Mesa Lakes Recreation Area. The cabin, constructed by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) in the 1930s, sits in an aspen and spruce/ fir tree forest at an elevation of 9,500. Only families with children under the age of 18 are eligible to participate.

Outdoor Heritage Day is a joint effort of the Colorado Parks and Wildlife, the U.S. Bureau of Land Management, the USFS, the Colorado Mule Deer Association (CMDA) and others to get families with children to actively participate in a variety of outdoor activities, such as hiking, fishing, camping, horseback riding, ATV/motorcycle riding, bicycle riding, family picnic or driving the Grand Mesa Scenic and Historic Byway.

Constituent’s remarks cut short BY HANK LOHMEYER Staff Writer

A constituent’s remarks at the Cedaredge Town Board meeting on Sept. 20 were judged by the mayor to be straying from the topic and the speaker, former trustee Nelson Cederberg, was asked to stop speaking. Cederberg was reading from a prepared statement on the topic of historic preservation efforts. But when he linked the topic to the problem of weeds and the town’s appearance, Mayor Pat Means asked him to stop speaking, saying he had

gone off topic and cited the need to conserve meeting time. Cederberg replied that he would bring the topic of his remarks back to historic preservation, which his prepared text did do. He was about to volunteer to serve on a town beautification committee when he stopped his remarks. Cederberg and his wife were the only citizens at the town board meeting not there to transact some business matter with the trustees. They both left soon after his remarks.

Winfrey (USFS Visitor Information Service), in order to participate in this year’s program, each family had to complete two activities on the Grand Mesa National Forest. The 22 families participating in this year’s program were then given stickers as proof for

each activity completed and the youth were asked to write an essay summarizing their experiences. The winners were then selected through a random draw. For their activities, the Stuckenschneiders hiked the scenic trail around Mesa Lakes and then went fishing. Writing about their experiences, Jennifer wrote, “Mesa Lakes is an amazing place for little girls! The first thing I do is jump out of the car and run to the path. The air smells like fresh pine trees with rain-soaked soil.” Jennifer also noted that that during the hike she looks for fairies and that the only sounds she hears is “the rustling of leaves and the footsteps of chipmunks mixed with mine.” When asked, Jennifer said she also plans on participating in next year’s program. For more information call USFS Visitor Information Office, Brenda Winfrey, at 242-8211.

What’s a duck worth? Make MUFFLERS & BRAKES a guess to help out 5-year-old The Delta and Cedaredge Rotary Clubs have launched a fundraiser to purchase a handicapped-accessible van for a 5-year-old charmer by the name of Paul Duckworth. With support from the Crested Butte Rotary Club, the Rotarians are hosting a “What’s A Duck Worth?” van fundraiser at AppleFest. For a $2 donation ($5 for three guesses) contestants will guess, for prizes, the number of rubber duckies in the van (the rubber duckies are on loan from the Crested Butte Rotary). Paul has visited both local clubs with his mother so Rotary members could learn more about his disability. Paul’s disabilities are extensive. Born with spina bifida, he had the first of many operations on the day he was born. Paul is paralyzed below the waist. He also has Arnold Chiari II, severe

Paul Duckworth fluid on the spine. He was recently diagnosed with scoliosis of the spine, which may necessitate surgery every six months while he is growing, and then a spinal fusion when he is older. He has food allergies and distressing digestive issues. He also has sensory and gross motor challenges. Another thing Paul has is a brilliant mind and a beautiful singing

FFA Alumni will serve breakfast The Cedaredge FFA Alumni will be serving an AppleFest pancake breakfast on Oct. 6 and 7. The breakfast will be served on both days from 7-11 a.m. at the Cedaredge Masonic Hall basement, 295 West Main Street. The breakfast will include all-you-can-eat pancakes, served with

ham, juice and coffee. The price is $6 per person, with children under age 5 eating free. All proceeds from the breakfast will be used to fund various scholarships for students of the Cedaredge High School FFA chapter.For more information, please call Holly Jones at 8353446.

voice. Bev Stitt, who lives about 100 yards from the Duckworths, said it is very inspiring to listen to Paul. “I can hear him in nice weather when the windows are open and he is so full of joy when he sings. It is such a happy start to my day when I hear Paul sing.” Paul started kindergarten in Cedaredge this school year where he is social and engaging with his new classmates. Paul’s parents must make frequent trips to Denver Children’s Hospital for Paul’s extensive ongoing care with many physicians. Their family sedan is too small to transport Paul and all the equipment he requires. This means that Paul has to do without some of the equipment — such as a stander — that makes his daily routine much easier. The fundraising effort is in response to a very generous offer by a Rotary member who has made available a used handicapped van in excellent condition with a wheelchair lift at more than a third below the book value of the vehicle. Paul will attend the AppleFest fundraiser as much as possible; his parents, Rotary members, church members and neighbors will also be at the booth for the entire festival. His sensory issues make these kinds of events difficult, but Paul likes to socialize and meet people. The Delta and Cedaredge Rotaries are

also collecting donations on behalf of the project. Monetary donations can be made to Delta Rotary Club, P.O. Box 86, Delta CO 81416.

Hosted by the David Starr Band, the event will feature many of the same musicians who are performing during AppleFest. Expect to see

local favorites along with Kirby Kelley, Dana Cooper, Haden Gregg, Jim Dykann and others. It is a fun and lively event that lots of locals and visitors look forward to each year. And during the rest of the year, don’t forget the Cedaredge open mic night held at the Pondy Dance Hall on the first Wednesday of each month. It is hosted by Doc Adkins and sponsored by Starr’s Guitars. Sign-up for open mic nights begins at 6:30 and performances start at 7.

Official poster is the work of local artist The Delta Fine Arts and its member artists from around the region agreed to sponsor an AppleFest Poster fundraiser for the Cedaredge Area Chamber of Commerce this year. The winning poster was created by artist Mary Key. The public voted for a people’s choice favorite during the Pops in the Park concert Sept. 5. There were more than a dozen entries by DFA member artists. The winning poster and rights to its use are

donated by the winning artist for the chamber’s use. The original will be featured in a silent auction during the Golden Gala and also during the two days of AppleFest. Key’s painting is a fanciful creation with, of course, an apple as its central theme. A man with an umbrella, dubbed by one wag as “Harry Poppins,” who appears to be dancing or celebrating atop a giant apple is actually a rendering of the artist’s father, explained a chamber official.

This original painting by artist Mary Key will be used for this year’s official AppleFest poster.

Cedar Mesa Club will Great selection of books be cookin’ at car show anticipated at fundraiser Once again the women of the Cedar Mesa Community Club will be serving up their popular homemade baked goods, breakfast burritos, and applewood-grilled hamburgers and bratwurst at the Pioneer Town Car

Rebekahs offer food, country store Elberta Rebekah Lodge #106 will be at the IOOF Hall, corner of Main and 3rd Streets, on Saturday, Oct. 6, from 8 to 5 and on Sunday, Oct. 7, from 10 to 2. They will be serving breakfast burritos and selling baked goods. Their Country Store will be open with items including a gazebo, recliner, chest of drawers, dinette set, old filing cabinet, glassware, antiques, books, toys and many miscellaneous items. Proceeds will be used to pay for utilities and maintenance of the lodge hall. The Rebekahs wish to thank the community for its support in the past and hope to see you at AppleFest.

Show Saturday beginning at 7 a.m. The club ladies are famous for their delicious scones, turnovers, cookies, pies, and breads, not to mention their breakfast burritos. All of these, plus coffee, will be available beginning at 7 a.m. at their booth which is set up in the covered area on the north side of the blacksmith shop in Pioneer Town, adjacent to the car show area. The breakfast burritos will be available until they’re gone. Come early, but fear not, more burritos are being made this year due to their past popularity. At 11 a.m. they’ll fire up the applewood grill to offer lunch of handmade hamburgers or bratwurst, along with pop, water, chips, cookies, and apples. The baked goods, coffee, pop, and water will be for sale all day until the car show closes down for the awards program at 2:30. The proceeds from sales at their AppleFest booth will help with the club’s non-profit activities. Throughout the year the club supports and donates to Surface Creek Community Ser-

vices (local food bank), Friends of the Cedaredge Animal Shelter, House of Promise, and Food for Thought. The club also offers a scholarship each year to deserving graduating students who reside on Cedar Mesa. At its AppleFest booth you can also get information on the club’s upcoming soup supper, which will be held Saturday, Oct. 20, from 5-7 p.m. at the Cedar Mesa Clubhouse, located at 15637 Peach Road on Cedar Mesa. This will be a departure from the gourmet sit-down dinner that the club usually presents at the end of October, but promises to be just as special. The proceeds from this event will go toward the scholarship fund. The Cedar Mesa Club ladies hope you will come have breakfast and lunch with them on Oct. 6 at Pioneer Town, whether you are with the car show or just a hungry spectator. Then buy a pie or bread or some cookies to take home for dinner. You will be helping out our local community with your purchases. For more information call 8564165.

Garden questions answered at AppleFest The Cedaredge Tree Board is sponsoring a garden information booth for the first time this year. The booth will be located in the town hall on Main Street. Look for the banner. Master gardeners from the Delta Extension office will also be on hand to assist tree board members in diagnosing plant problems and prescribing answers. Don’t forget to bring any plant material that might help

diagnose your problem. Any and all gardening questions are fair game. Come by and test the Master gardeners’ knowledge. There will also be a drawing for one of three books — Garden Insects of North America by Whitney Cranshaw, Weeds of the West and Insects and Diseases of Woody Plants of the Central Rockies. These are the primary books used by Master gardeners and

Book, art, soup mix benefit library The Cedaredge Women’s Literary Club celebrates books with two new projects to raise money for the Cedaredge Public Library’s collection.

When you see these unique items, you’re sure to find some perfect hostess, thank-you, and Christmas gifts for folks on your list. The Cedaredge Women’s Literary Club will be at 505 W. Main at the northwest corner of Cedaredge Town Park.

Why does history matter? What do the documents and letters of our Founding Fathers tell us about the godly heritage of our nation? Learn more by viewing historian David Barton’s “The American Heritage Series.” Thirty-minute video segments will be shown all day Saturday, Oct. 6, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. in the First Baptist Church, right in the middle of AppleFest events on Main Street Cedaredge. Discover the forgotten and astonishing story of our naton’s foundation in the American Heritage Series. For centuries, Americans were taught a truthful view of history that recognized the godly heroes and moral foundation our nation was founded upon. But in recent years, a new version of history has assaulted the moral and spiritual fiber of our nation, leaving the truth of our past eliminated and forgotten. Until today.

Arrangements have been completed whereby the new organization will take over the old body known as the Delta County Business Men’s Association and as soon as the few necessary preliminaries can be rushed to completion, the old Business Men’s Association will be no more and, in its stead, the Delta Chamber of Commerce will be born. The officers and directors of the old association agreed to resign and turn all real estate and other property over to the young men, together with its membership of forty-five, as soon as the Chamber of Commerce can show a membership of one hundred to its credit. The old Business Men’s Association

owns some sixteen lots in the southeast portion of Delta, besides other assets, all of which will go to the Chamber of Commerce. The liabilities only amount to $160. Percival E. Coombe will, for a time at least, continue to act as secretary. A monster “get-together” banquet will be given by the new organization on October 15, at I.O.O.F. hall, at which two hundred plates will be laid. A large gathering of the young men of the district who are interested in the going forward and up-building of Delta and Delta county is expected to be on hand that evening and it is more than probable that the membership of the new Chamber of Commerce will reach the one hundred mark, or better, before the banquet tables have been cleared. *** The board of county commissioners convened on Tuesday of this week for the transaction of all public business and one of the noteworthy matters taken up was the construction of the Hotchkiss and Uncompahgre bridges. Plans have been received from Engineer Maloney of the State Highway Commission and bids are to be called for at once. *** The Bank of Cedaredge has everything in readiness to change over to a First National on October 1st. *** The new State Bank in Cedaredge expects to open for business on October 1st with J.B. Lazear of Denver temporarily in charge. Mr. Lazear is now here making arrangements for the opening. *** It isn’t a real fruit season, you know, without a runaway. D.E. Eikenberry’s team claimed the honors Friday, very thoroughly distributing a load of orchard boxes along the highway in the vicinity of his house.

*** Harry Doughty has just replaced the old lunch car which stood just south of the Delta Café for two or three years, with a new building especially constructed and arranged for the lunch and restaurant business. *** Joe Harrington and J.B. Bainard arrived home from the Mesa county fair at Grand Junction last Friday night, having made an auto drive from that point. Joe stated that the run from the Mesa county metropolis had been pleasant but for the dust which was at least a food deep in places. *** The Joe Newman company entertained a fair sized audience at the Delta opera house Monday evening. Joe is one of Colorado’s best known and popular humorists. He can always entertain his auditors with up-to-date songs and sayings and he has a company of artists in both vocal and instrumental music readings, etc., who never fail to please. *** Bryon’s Troubadours were greeted by a large, appreciative audience at the Baptist church Wednesday evening. It was the first appearance of this excellent musical company in Delta and their presentation of a program comprising high class numbers, both vocal and instrumental, brought forth such approval from auditors that they will doubtless keep Delta on the calendar for future dates. *** Wanted – Bridge carpenters: $2.85 per day. Apply D.&R.G. Agent, Delta depot. ***

Celebrating 20 years of the Backpack Program “This is such an awesome program,” agree Carrie and Tanner Reed as they explore a Backpack box with their daughter Jordan, age 3. Their 5-year-old son Ty is a Backpack graduate.

BY PAT SUNDERLAND Managing Editor

wonderful evolution has taken place since the Backpack Program was implemented 20 years ago, but the basic precept remains unchanged: Supporting parents as their child’s first and most important teacher. The Backpack Program is a unique home-based preschool program that provides parents with free, themed boxes containing a wealth of teaching opportunities. Each box contains 7-10 books which establish the theme for the box. Activities, games, puzzles and crafts complement the theme, each offering an opportunity to develop a child’s language, writing, math, fine motor, gross motor and memory skills. For the kids, though, it’s just plain fun. “It’s like Christmas once a month,” says Crawford parent Stephanie Neff. “I won’t let my kids open the boxes until we get home, because we don’t want to lose any pieces, but then it’s really fun to watch them take everything out. They have a ball playing with everything in the box, but as parents we know we’re working collaboratively together toward a bigger goal.” All children living in Delta County who are at least 3 years old, but not yet enrolled in kindergarten, are eligible for the free program. Neff has rotated through many of the 58 themed boxes with her two older children. Still she’s as excited as her 3-year-old to read the books, play the games, and do the activities contained in each box. “We’ve loved the Backpack Program,” she says. “The Backpack crew works so hard at making each box fun and creative for the kids, and they’re always available with support if your child is struggling. They also sponsor a lot of activities where the families can get together. This is such a neat idea.” “This program is near and dear to my heart,” says program facilitator Lisa Mock. She started out as a Backpack parent in 2003, first with her son and then her daughter. In 2007 she joined the Backpack support group, cleaning boxes, replenishing materials and making exchanges. When program facilitator Judy Fairchild retired in 2009, Mock stepped into her position. Co-founder Terry Hotz retired at the same time and Angela Fedler took over her position as Delta County preschool director. “To this day I still remember my kids’ favorite boxes,” Mock says. “One of my son’s first boxes was a digger box which contained a hedgehog puppet that he loved. It was so hard to give that box up! We asked the Backpack ladies where they had gotten the hedgehog, and my mother and I went to Grand Junction to buy another one. To this day, the puppet sits on a shelf in my son’s room. ‘Hedgie’ will always be part of our family.” Because of memorable experiences such as that one, and the value she got out of the program as a parent, Mock is committed to sharing

the benefits of the Backpack program with all the parents who join the program every year. “It’s an investment for me, not just from an educator’s point of view but from a parent’s point of view,” she says. The Backpack program was proposed by a team of early child professionals in 1992 as a way to help support families in the enrichment of their child’s preschool experiences. Initial funding came from Title I and Delta County Joint School District #50. In the first year, 17 families signed up for the preschool Backpack Program. A kindergarten Backpack Program served children attending half-day kindergarten. The materials were initially placed in backpacks, but were soon transferred to Rubbermaid containers. Although the plastic tubs proved to be more serviceable and longer lasting, the backpack name stuck. The Backpack Program was initially housed in the “kindercottage” in Cedaredge. Summer enrichment kindercamps were offered to children involved in the program. When kindergarten went to a full day throughout the school district, backpacks were offered only to the kindergarten students who needed additional support. As the program continued to grow, operations were moved to the Special Services building in Delta and finally to the current location in the Delta Center for Performing Arts and Education. When enrollment topped 500, several programs were added to meet children’s needs. Backback Plus-A was a visitation program that provided remedial support to children with delayed developmental skills. A playgroup was offered to families of children with delayed developmental skills at Garnet Mesa Elementary. Then came the establishment of licensed preschools, a “proud child” of the Backpack Program. Backpack Early Learning Academy (BELA) preschools were started at Garnet Mesa and Lincoln, then expanded to Hotchkiss, Crawford and Paonia. There is no BELA preschool in Cedaredge, but through a collaborative arrangement with Little Sprouts Preschool, backpacks are delivered upon request to any Cedaredge area family. There are also some state-funded preschool spots at Little Sprouts. In 2007, Title I funds were suspended. Today the program relies on funding from the Delta County Department of Health and Human Services, Colorado Preschool Program, Family Literacy (Even Start), Cocker Kids Foundation, Temple Hoyne Buell Foundation, Daniels Fund, El Pomar and Anschutz Family Foundation. “This is an entirely grantfunded program with in-kind services from Delta County Joint School District,” Mock explains. “Money wise, we have to seek grants for every operational expenditure we have.” The Backpack factory in Delta keeps Mock and four

other employees hopping. They track 650 boxes, including boxes for developmentally delayed children, boxes for gifted and talented preschoolers, and boxes for bilingual learners. These boxes contain Spanish and English versions of each book, so preschoolers can read in their native language and in their new language. The boxes are themed, Mock says, because research shows that when a common thread ties learning material together, a child’s retention of that material increases. Pickup sites are offered in every community. Many times the boxes are left at the elementary school on the honor system. Parents leave the box they had the previous month, pick up a new box, and are on their way. For new families, though, a “box talk” is a must, so they get the most out of the experience. “I have a box in front of me, and I explain how important it is for parents to get excited about what they do with that box,” Mock explains. “There are a lot of toys and they’re in a box, so it’s easy to call it a toy box, but it’s not. It’s a parent tool box. I want them to use it as a tool, to pull out activities and sit down on the floor with their child and have great one-on-one activity with them because those are the connections that will make the difference in their child’s educational process. “It’s nothing magical. We don’t have a magic book, we don’t have a magic toy that makes their child do better in school down the road. It’s because they paid attention and they encouraged their child.” Mock points out that kids have a library of up to 10,000 words by the time they start kindergarten. Through the Backpacks, parents can expand their child’s vocabulary by exploring a wide variety of themes. “The boxes exposed my kids to different things than they might have had at home,” says Misty McCormick, the mother of a fifth grader, second grader and now a 4-year-old who have all been participants. Inspired by the Madeline

series of books, they tried speaking French. Games and puzzles taught problem solving. Her son sought out the math challenges, while her daughters have loved taking care of the animals in the veterinary box. When they discovered books they greatly enjoyed, they purchased copies for their home library. The boxes with dolls or princesses never appealed to her daughters, but they always had other choices, and the Backpack ladies quickly came to understand their preferences and to steer them toward boxes they would enjoy, McCormick says. In 20 years, thousands of kids in Delta County have been involved in the Backpack Program. Each child is screened in five developmental areas when they enroll in the program, and then again when they leave the program for kindergarten. That assessment illustrates how much preschoolers have grown and the skills they’ve gained in just two years. And hopefully, parents and children alike have learned that learning can — and will continue to — be fun as their education continues to kindergarten and beyond. 20-Year Celebration A fun-filled day has been planned Saturday, Oct. 27,

to celebrate 20 years of the Backpack Program. The day begins with a 5k family run/ walk beginning and ending at The Delta Center, 822 Grand Avenue. Registration begins at 7:30 a.m., and the race starts at 8 a.m. There will be a one-mile loop for families who prefer a shorter option. Door prizes will be awarded at the conclusion of the race. An open house is planned from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., with a special presentation at 11 a.m. to recognize founders and funders who have made the Backpack Program possible. Community service providers have been invited to set up booths on the front lawn of The Delta Center to provide information and support to families. Giveaways and family activities will be ongoing. Lunch will be served by the Delta Lions Club and Hellman Motors will be sponsoring Drive One 4 UR School, a fundraiser for the Backpack Program. For each family that test drives a Ford from Hellman Motors, $20 will be donated to the Backpack Program. You can register for the run at deltaschools.com, or call 874-9517 for more information about any of the events planned for the Backpack’s 20th anniversary celebration.

The lid of every tub contains a checklist telling parents exactly what they’re getting — puzzles, art projects, blocks, books — along with suggested activities for each item. Blocks, for instance, can be used to create structures but they can also be sorted by color and into patterns to develop early math skills. The princess box is pictured above.

The Backpack Factory is staffed by (from left) Lisa Mock, Lidia Savage, Kim Dicamillo, Kathy Myers and Starr Baldwin. Savage and Myers have been with the Backpack Program since its inception in 1992.
