Democrat makes run for sheriff Brown challenges appointed incumbent Walcher
By Peter Jones If Tyler Brown were elected the next Arapahoe County sheriff, he would be making history on several fronts. Not only would he be the first Democrat to serve as county sheriff in decades, at 31 he would be among the youngest. He would also be the first sheriff in recent history to not rise from the upper ranks of the department. “Over the last 40 years, Arapahoe County has kind of implanted who was going to run for office, and then Continued on page 7
PEEK-A-BOO Remembering the fall of Saigon Experience still vivid for Greenwood Village mayor
By Jan Wondra The sky seemed filled with helicopters landing and taking off, some even rising with people clinging to the landing frame. In the haze of the tropical climate, even crisplystarched military shirts clung to the body. The mood in the city was fearful, tensely holding its breath. The day, April 29, 1973, just happened to be one day before the fall of Saigon – one day before the final U.S. military pullout from Vietnam’s capital city after 10 years and two months of conflict.

Mom of missing teen just wants to know her daughter is OK Ava Reinhard went missing April 23
By Tom Barry The morning of April 23 started out normal for the Reinhard family. Around 8:30 a.m., mom, Debra, was leaving for work. Ava gave her mom a big hug and then did the same with her stepfather Nathan Omansky. “She said she loved me and that I’ll see you later,” Debra said. That afternoon when the aspiring soccer player did not return home from school, her parents began to check out the Cherry Creek Village North neighborhood around Dairy Queen on South Yosemite Street, just a few blocks north of the high school. After a short while, Debra called the Greenwood Village Police Department and reported her daughter missing. When Ava was last seen that morning, she was wearing black yoga pants and a black T-shirt, but may have changed clothes before leaving home. Ava did not attend school that day. Due to the late start and testing of the junior class, the notification that she did not attend class was not received until 7 p.m. that night. Ava left without taking her cellphone. Family and friends began to scour the 16th Street Mall in Downtown Denver, where she and a friend had recently been spending time. “I would like to say a special thank you to Scott Anthony, special [law enforcement] agent with the BNSF
well care of to the best of our knowledge. There was no big fight, there was no boyfriend that I knew of, no ‘I hate you mom, I’m out of here’ – nothing. She may have met some of these street people, and who knows what they may have told her? I just think that she did not want to be here. Anyplace is better than home as a teenager.”
‘Just let me know you are OK …” Ava Reinhard Railroad,” Debra said. Anthony had five coal trains stopped and searched because someone had suggested Ava might be on one of the train cars leaving the city. Local police departments, along with the FBI, are actively involved in the search for the missing teenager. On April 24, Greenwood Village Police issued a “missing juvenile” public-information bulletin. Ava is 5-foot-7, weighs approximately 135 pounds and has long blond hair and blue eyes. The 15-year old girl faced some challenges before, having been bullied at Campus Middle School. She later attended Fox Ridge Middle School, near Southlands Mall, a long daily drive from her neighborhood. “Ava battled a little bit with depression on and off and had a few suicide attempts,” her mother said. “We’ve done tons of preventative classes at Children’s [Hospital], depression classes, she had weekly therapy. She was being taken
“Call me, there is no judgment and you can come home and we will do whatever we need to do, just let me know you are OK, that’s all I want to know,” a tearful Debra said. “[Ava] is not the typical rebellious runaway. This is very calculating, what girl leaves without her cellphone?. … She went through some teenage stuff. She was not a problem child. She followed the rules.” Ava’s mother said she is going through a rollercoaster of emotions, from a broken heart to anger. This Saturday, May 3, at 9 a.m., family, friends and volunteers are going to gather at Union Station to pass out fliers throughout the downtown area. The newly renovated transportation hub is at 1701 Wynkoop St. in LoDo. Debra and her daughter Erica, 22, have put together a Facebook page to update concerned friends and volunteers – “Help Us Find Ava.” They also have a Twitter account. If anyone has any information pertaining to Ava or her whereabouts, call the Greenwood Village Police Department at 303-773-2525.

Fishin’ Fun at Tommy Davis Park
By Jan Wondra The sun was shining, the grass was green, and the fish were swimming, but not doing much biting, for the annual Tommy Davis Park Fishing Derby and Rubber Duck Waddle, April 26. The annual event at Tommy Davis Park, east of Caley Street on Orchard Road in Greenwood Village, couldn’t be held last year due to water problems. This year the pond is healthy. The enthusiastic crowd of multi-generational families spread out around the circumference of the pond, which had been freshly stocked with trout.

The 50-year mission of Nichelle Nichols
Enduring ‘Star Trek’ actress at DTC’s StarFest this weekend
By Peter Jones A kiss is just kiss ... unless it happens to be network television’s first interracial kiss. “While we were doing it, Bill Shatner was joking. He said, ‘I told you I’m going to get to kiss you.’ The next thing you know, there was this thing about it,” actress Nichelle Nichols said. The controversial kiss between Nichols and William Shatner on Star Trek may seem quaint nearly 50 years later. But in 1968, the prospect of an openly interracial kiss on network television seemed as distant as intergalactic travel. NBC brass even considered pulling the kiss for fear of offending viewers in the South. Racial tensions were at their height on Nov. 22, 1968, when “Plato’s Stepchildren,” the episode that saw Capt. Kirk famously plant a space-age smooch on Lt. Uhuru, first aired. At the time, the United States was still reeling from Martin Luther King’s assassination seven months earlier. The kiss occurred on a Hollywood soundstage three years after race riots across town in Watts had also shocked many TV viewers. Nichols laughs when she recites — in a Southern accent — the gist of a letter that series’ creator Gene Roddenberry received after the kiss episode first aired. “I’m opposed to the mixin’ of the races,” she said in a drawl. “But anytime a red-blooded American boy like Capt. Kirk gets a gal in his arms that looks like Lt. Uhuru, he ain’t gonna fight it.” Nichols will kiss and tell more at the StarFest convention, May 2-4, at the Marriott Denver Tech Center and the Denver Hilton Garden Inn across the street.
the only shows he allowed his children to stay up for,” she said. Nichols remembers Roddenberry’s response when she told him she would not be turning in her Star Fleet uniform after all. “God bless Dr. King,” the producer said as a tear ran down his cheek. “Somebody knows what I’m trying to do.”

The kiss-off
“All hailing frequencies open, Captain.” Nichelle Nichols nearly jumped ship after the first season until Martin Luther King “ordered” her back to her station. stories” of utopian idealism. “He wanted to write about the human condition, including men and women and people of all races as equals,” she said. “The studio said, ‘Gene, the world isn’t ready for what you’re talking about — maybe in 300 years.’ So Gene smiled, said thank you and set the whole thing 300 years in the future on a starship.” During the Enterprise’s proverbial five-year mission (but only a brief three seasons on the air), the ship traversed through a range of contemporary universes — from racism to war
— but all from the relative safety of a science-fiction context. In one episode, an interplanetary figure whose face was half-white and half-black was locked in a deadly battle with his antagonist — a man whose face had the same colors, but on the opposite sides. “It was something that we were all really proud to be a part of. The cast would sit and talk about the story lines. It was something exciting,” Nichols said. At the end of the first season, however, Nichols was ready to beam her
Nichelle Nichols, best known as Star Trek’s Lt. Uhuru, will beam into the Denver Tech Center this weekend for StarFest.
Where no woman had gone before
Despite her full mane of gray hair, Nichols looks at least a decade younger than her 81 years. It was nearly a half century ago that the actress first launched the role that would make her the pin-up darling of the Trekkie set. Nichols, a singer who performed with Count Basie and Lionel Hampton in her native Chicago, was sometimes given the opportunity to sing on Star Trek. But Roddenberry did not want any standard 20th century phrasing from the songstress. “It was more ethereal,” Nichols said. “He didn’t want it to be jazz, blues or Broadway pop, but to take it to the stars, if you will.” Although she initially resisted auditioning for the part of the leggy communications officer, Nichols was soon a convert to Roddenberry’s vision of a socially conscious 22ndcentury starship, epitomized by the lieutenant’s name Uhuru being the Swahili word for “freedom.” According to Nichols, the producer’s original idea was to simply stage “amazing

way back into musical theater. She had not considered the show’s social significance in her decision. But the actress reconsidered on what she calls the direct “orders” of Martin Luther King Jr. “You cannot!” the civil-rights leader demanded when he heard of her plans to quit the show. “Can’t you see what [Roddenberry] is trying to achieve here?” Nichols was stopped in her tracks, dumbfounded. “He tells me what an important television series it is and it’s one of
Nichols’ memories of Shatner are not as sentimental. When it comes down to it, the actress did not think much of the historic kiss — or the kisser for that matter. “Over the years, Bill became very self-involved,” she said. “He would go to the director and have your lines cut. It was grossly disrespectful.” According to Nichols, insult met injury when Shatner claimed in his autobiography that the famous kiss never happened, that it had been fudged for the camera — a contention vehemently denied by Nichols. The actress says she got revenge of a sort some years ago when some of her fellow cast members reunited for a comic roast of the former Capt. Kirk. “I looked at Bill and said, ‘Let’s give history another chance,’” Nichols recalled. “Bill just sat there. Then he pulled himself out of his chair and forced himself to get up.” The room erupted in a standing ovation when Nichols wryly told Shatner where he could kiss her this time. “I broke up laughing,” she said. “It took me 40 years to tell [him] what I really thought about him.”

Purnima Voria and India Chamber hosts Sen. Warner KINDLING
By Robert Sweeney
I expressed my admiration for Ambassador Sam Zakhem last week and the encounter that occurred with Saudi Prince Bander. Ambassador Zakhem’s mother was from Argentina and his father from Lebanon. Zakhem speaks at least five languages fluently, including Arabic. During his tour in Bahrain during Desert Storm, he lived in the city among the people and not in the secured Embassy. He opened doors for the U.S. Navy fleet that had never been welcomed before his arrival. He is a world traveler, a scholar holding a Ph.D. from the University of Colorado, and an honorary doctorate from the American University in Cairo, Egypt. Zakhem has friends and foes
like every political leader, but he is an exceptional individual with a big heart. He has a large family living in Denver and one of three sons, John Zakhem, is a lot like his father. A very successful lawyer, he has just merged his law firm with a larger national law firm, Jackson Kelley PLLC, with offices across America, including Washington, D.C. Both John and Sam are members of the National Indian Chamber of Commerce founded here in Denver. The organization has more than 300 corporations that have an interest or do business in India from Colorado. The Indian Chamber of Commerce is chaired by an amazing energetic leader, Purnima Voria, an Indian/American, who works very hard to develop business and cultural relationships between the United States and India. The National India Chamber has been located with John’s offices and have now moved with John to the offices of Jackson Kelly PLLC, located at 1099 18th St. Suite 2150. You should be aware that India is the largest democracy in the world and has a population to rival China somewhere around 1.2 billion people. This past Friday, Purnima hosted U.S. Sen. Mark Warner, former governor of Virginia and the co-chair of

the Senate India Caucus, to the new headquarters. Having an interest in “democracies” and the Indian Chamber and a close relationship to the Zakhem family, I was invited to the intimate India roundtable discussion with Warner. Traveling to India in 2013 with Villager friend and colleague Jim Pilon, our feature on India and the Taj Mahal won first place in editorial sections from the Colorado Press Association award contest last year. Senator Warner leads a 40-member Senate caucus group that includes Colorado Sen. Michael Bennett and 100 members from the House. The senator related that relationships with India had some bumps in the road in recent months over diplomatic visa issues in New York City. He stated that President Obama would be naming a new ambassador to India in the near future. India is currently undergoing a national election that extends for months across the vast nation. He
related that more than 200,000 Indians hold United States passports and have studied and worked in the U.S. before returning home. There was considerable interest in water issues and water health, which was represented by Jacquline Lundquist Celeste, who’s husband Dick Celeste was the U.S. Ambassador to India prior to becoming now retired president of Colorado College in Colorado Springs. The conference room was festively decorated in stylish Indian culture with Purnima’s selection of ample and delicious Indian cuisine. John Zakhem thanked Sen. Warner for attending and welcomed the group to the new office headquarters. The staff at the law firm was outstanding and was led by Laura Hackney and the very hospitable Kim Alcorn, front desk operative who greeted guests so warmly. Those with interest in joining the Indian Chamber may contact Purnima at Purnima@nuicc.org or www. NUICC.info.
Sixty-nine years ago American GIs crossed the Rhine

The other day at lunch I was asked some questions about World War II and realized that somehow I had forgotten about our GIs great feat in March 1945.

Protect yourself from potential telephone scammers Cherry Hills resident receives fraudulent phone call
Submitted by Cherry Hills Village Police A Cherry Hills Village resident received a fraudulent telephone call from an unknown individual representing himself as an officer from a California police department. The caller explained that the grandson of the victim and a friend were arrested while transporting a large amount of drugs
in their vehicle. In order for the grandson to be released from jail, the caller requested that $12,500 in cash shipped using FEDEX to a location in California. The caller also requested that the signature requirement was waived. These scam artists can be very convincing. It is important that you check the story before you do anything. You may receive a telephone call, an email, a letter or a text messages, requesting money to be wired for getting someone out of jail, pay hospital bills after an accident, or stranded because they lost their wallet and credit
cards. We recommend that you do not send money to anyone that you do not know. Law enforcement does not request any mailing or wiring of funds to release a person from jail. The Cherry Hills Police Department urges everyone to verify any situation involving the wiring or mailing of funds to a third party. You may call the police department at 303-761-8711 for more information on how to protect yourself from potential scammers or for additional advice on how to deal with these types of calls.
Rakowsky remembers Vietnam Continued from Page 1
mortars from the Viet Cong forces, the rising smoke, the helicopters coming and going, the people rushing around in the streets. As we walked through the streets on the way to the restaurant, the shop owners were asking us, ‘Hey GI, when you coming back?’ I knew we weren’t.” The judge advocate’s staff, which was officially assigned to Clark Airbase in the Philippines, finally managed to take off on April 30. From Clark, the staff listened to the final embassy evacuations being broadcast. “The last hours were frantic.” Rakowsky said. “There were so many Hueys being landed on the aircraft carriers that to make room they would land, get the people out, and push them overboard into the South China Sea to make room for more to land.”
Rakowsky went on to serve 24 years in the Air Force, preceded by six years of ROTC, retiring as a colonel. His stint in the Philippines brought him in contact with thenPresident Ferdinand Marcos and his infamous wife Imelda – she of the thousands of shoes. Rakowsky especially remembers one day when the president and his wife helicoptered them to a picnic in Volcano National Park. “Their excess was in direct contrast with their people’s poverty,” he said. Rakowsky’s service often kept him from his family. “In the Philippines, I would talk with my wife and kids, where they would patch the phone lines through multiple bases,” he said. “My daughter learned to say ‘over,’ even on the cassette tapes we’d recorded to send back and forth.” His postings ranged from Clark to Randolph in San Antonio, Texas,
to Riverside, Calif., to McDill in Florida and Lowry Air Force base, which introduced the family to Colorado. Looking back more than four decades later, Rakowsky is philosophical. “Six years before that last April day in Saigon, I predicted, the day before [President Lyndon] Johnson’s announcement, that he wouldn’t run [for re-election],” the mayor said. “Everyone kind of realized that Vietnam was not like World War II, when we were fighting for a purpose. In fact, in the end, I think Ho Chi Minh wasn’t so much a communist as he was a nationalist. Even so, Rakowsky has few regrets about his military service. “I’d do it over again in a heartbeat,” he said. “I was employed as an instrument of national policy. It helps one take a national view.”

By Peter Jones Lost in the media frenzy about midterm congressional elections and falling below the radar of this month’s South Suburban Parks and Recreation ballot is the even lesser-known May 6 election for the Southgate Water and Sanitation Districts. The publicly elected five-member board of directors oversees two interconnected governmental entities that together operate and maintain water-distribution and wastewater-collection systems for more than 75,000 residents in Arapahoe and Douglas counties. Southgate’s district includes portions of Centennial, Greenwood Village, Cherry Hills Village, Lone Tree and some unincorporated areas. Three candidates – all with engineering and water backgrounds – are seeking two available four-year terms on the joint board. Voters will be asked to vote for up to two of the three hopefuls. Centennial resident William Silkman is an architectural engineer who has spent more than 30 years advising and managing projects that have improved energy and water efficiency in buildings. Silkman, often known as Chuck, is a longtime resident of the Willow Creek subdivision and currently serves on that neighborhood’s homeowner’s association. “I have a longstanding commitment to community service and to actively participate in the various organizations that impact my community and environment,” he said. “I consider Southgate … to be a fiscally responsible and well managed entity, and if elected, I would commit to maintaining what the district does well and advocate for accountability and responsiveness.” Candidate Richard Marsicek is a civil engineer with 17 years of experience in planning, designing and constructing water and wastewater facilities. He is the director of engineering for the South Metro Water Supply Authority and previously worked for Aurora Water. Marsicek also serves on the Metro

Orchard Road in Centennial • Precinct 2 - Douglas County voters Lone Tree Civic Center, 8527 Lone Tree Parkway Mark Rosser Basin Roundtable. “I have no agenda in running for the board,” the Walnut Hills resident said, “other than to serve my community and do my part to ensure the sustainability and reliability of water and sewer services to you and the future residents. … As our infrastructure within the district ages, responsible fiscal management will become increasingly important.” Longtime Willow Creek resident Mark Rosser is the third candidate. The geologist and engineer has worked for a large global consulting firm that specializes in water and wastewater engineering. Since 1990, Rosser has been working in the water and wastewater field for cities and special
districts that he says are similar to Southgate. “My technical expertise in utility system evaluation, planning, design and construction provides me with a solid foundation to help guide both districts through future challenges,” he said. “… As an engineer, I thrive on solving problems and making the world a better place to live. … I promise to do my best to balance our shared goal of maintaining our current level of service while preserving the reasonable water rates and wastewater fees.” For more information on the candidates, visit www.southgate districts.org.

Cherry Hills Village takes playful step in Dahlia Hollow Park By Jan Wondra Kids in Cherry Hills Village will soon have one small play space to call their own, with the decision made at the April 15 City Council meeting to add a natural play area to Dahlia Hollow Park. The land use decision for this small area east of Three Pond Park on Oxford between Dahlia and Cherry streets, followed its acceptance by the Parks, Trails and Recreation Committee and came after a lengthy public hearing in which many residents spoke out for and against the play area. “This concept has been years in the planning,” said Mayor Doug Tisdale, who does not vote on council motions, unless there is a tie. “Our task here is to determine whether the application meets the requirements of the zoning for the land and whether it addresses our master plan. This is special because the application has been made by our own parks department and after careful analysis, PTRC accepted the plan.” “This proves that reasonable minds can differ,” said Mayor Pro Tem Russell Stewart, about the hearing, in which more than a dozen citizens spoke, both for and against the addition to the grassy, wooded area, which serves as a gateway to the High Line Canal. “I think the staff has come up with a balance; this isn’t a slippery slope, it’s a small amenity. We can always undo
this, but we can’t know until we try.” “The questions at hand are ‘what is open space?’ and ‘what is recreational use?’” said Rob Zucaro, Community Development Manager. “There were several locations considered for the installation. This area, which is a flood plain, was selected for what is a small area about 50 feet by 20 feet. Part of the reason it was selected was because of the higher residential density surrounding it, so it would be closer to more children.” Those in the public hearing against the installation of a play area most often cited the natural, semi-rural atmosphere of the city. “I played in the area as a child,” said John Prescott. “Then we could put up rope swings and a tree house. I know we don’t allow that anymore, but I think it’s a very playable area the way it is. I’d be concerned about traffic.” “I’m in favor of the proposal”, said Craig Wildrick. “There are a lot of children in the community surrounding it. This is a place where people can build relationships.” “I grew up playing in this park,” said Bill Manning.” If you install playground equipment now, then pretty soon they’ll want a bathroom and a parking lot.” “I’d like to endorse the play area,” said Julie Turken. “We live in a different world today, the kids in the neighborhood have no place to play. I have zero concern
that a bathroom or parking lot would go in. No one would vote for that.” “I’ve lived here a very long time, and on balance, I’m in favor of this,” said PTRC member Jeff Wellborn. “In the ‘50s we loved this area, but it’s where everything was thrown. The community is changing. I want to emphasize that we need to find ways to create community for all citizens, which means we have to strike a balance of how to use public space for all. I think staff has struck a wonderful balance here. We have parks for horses, why don’t we have parks for kids?” “Dahlia Hollow is not natural, it was laid out by a landscape architect; it looks natural, but it’s not,” said Katy Brown. “When this first came up in PTRC six years, ago, the play area was swings and slides. This is carefully scaled back. Fortytwo percent of our families have children and 4.7 percent of our population are children under age 5; 280 children with no facilities at all. Nearly 14 percent of our population, more than 800 children, are under age 10. We are failing in addressing the needs of the families with young children; but we have three facilities for horses in the Village!” The play area will consist of two synthetic play boulders and five stepping stumps.
Sheriff candidate awarded medals for valor in rescue of endangered children Continued from Page 1 that person gets to run as the incumbent because the sitting incumbent retires. I want it to be a true election with two candidates that are viable for the seat and let the people of Arapahoe County decide,” Brown said. The first-time candidate is waging his challenge against incumbent Republican David Walcher, the former undersheriff who received a midterm appointment earlier this year on the recommendation of Sheriff Grayson Robinson, who stepped down a year before the end of his third term. Brown says such appointments to incumbency breed cynicism in voters and perpetuate a kind of old boys’ club. “The fact that the administrative side of police departments are held by a few that have been there for so long doesn’t allow for a great deal of change,” he said. “We’ve had Pat Sullivan, who picked Grayson Robinson, who picked Dave Walcher. It’s kind of that old regime and I think it’s time for some fresh blood in Arapahoe County. I think if you are elected to a position, you fulfill the entirety of your term. It was a very political decision to keep control of the Sheriff’s Office.” Brown, a resident of unincorporated Arapahoe County near Aurora, cut his teeth in police work in Adams County, where he attended the sheriff’s academy and worked as a patrol officer and SWAT team member for the
Northglenn Police Department. He is currently an armed campussafety officer for Aurora Public Schools. Brown made the news in 2012 when he and two colleagues helped rescue two young children after their father had barricaded himself, his son and daughter in their Northglenn home and set the duplex on fire. Brown would receive several recognitions, including the Adams County Peace Officer of the Year award and a Medal of Valor from the Colorado Association of Police Chiefs. “That’s my proudest moment, just knowing that all my training and all the things I told myself I would do in certain situations, I did – and there’s two kids that get to have a life now,” Brown said. The candidate believes a spirit of interagency partnerships and community policing are what makes for effective law enforcement. If elected in Arapahoe County, Brown says he would plan to improve communication channels – both to the public and to the rank-and-file deputies, as part of an effort to build trust in all directions. “I want to have a committee of community members that comes in and provides oversight and a direction,” Brown said. “In this day and age, I think law enforcement has lost the trust of the people they serve.” The Democrat says he would support the unionization of his deputies. “The way the charter is now,
you work at the will of the sheriff,” Brown said. “I would encourage deputies to look at organizing and moving in a direction that would benefit the worker and the community.” Brown, a graduate of Smoky Hill High School, studied political science at Eastern New Mexico University on a baseball scholarship before an arm injury struck out his ambitions. In 2006, he returned to Arapahoe County, where he took a job in code enforcement for the City of Aurora, a move that launched his career in police work. “From a very young age, my parents instilled a sense of civic duty and responsibility,” he said. “I like being out on the community and being part of the solution, rather than just taking from the system.” The husband and father of an 18-month-old girl acknowledges his relative youth, but considers his background to be on equal footing with Walcher’s. One factor that may work to his benefit is a slight advantage in Democratic registrations, which currently outnumber Republicans by more than 6,000 voters. Even so, the wild card is unaffiliated and minor-party voters, which together comprise the county’s largest category. “I’m an unknown, but that’s a good thing for me,” Brown said. “I can come in with fresh ideas and a fresh face and we can move forward.” Election Day is Nov. 4.

Changing 6th District could shift control of CU Regents
Ricks and Carson bring former president of the Douglas County Board of Education competing visions and backgrounds Self-made immigrant By Peter Jones Democrats control both of Colorado’s U.S. Senate seats, the governor’s office and the General Assembly, but the nine-member University of Colorado Board of Regents remains in Republican hands. That could change – and the politically volatile 6th Congressional District is at the center of the political equation. The once solidly Republican district went “purple” after the 2010 U.S. Census pushed redrawing of political boundaries. A resulting three-way split in the 6th has created one of the nation’s most expensive congressional contests, with incumbent Rep. Mike Coffman and Democratic challenger Andrew Romanoff seeking to outspend each other and wrestle for votes in an ethnically and politically diverse district. A secondary effect has been the increased attention placed on the 2014 race for the Board of Regents. The 6th District position stands as an open seat as the board potentially reconfigures its 5-4 partisan division. Although the two 6th District candidates are distinct in many ways, they are both proud CU graduates. Democrat Naquetta Ricks, a small-business owner, will face Republican John Carson, the
Ricks, a first-generation African immigrant and a single mother who launched her own financial-services business, says she would bring a unique voice and a passion for educational opportunity. “I will make sure that the university is working as hard as our students to achieve success,” she said. “As our state recovers from the worst recession since the Great Depression, Colorado working families are looking for leaders who will put aside partisan bickering and focus instead on giving their children access to the education they need to compete in a 21st century economy.” She says growing up in Liberia, the only African nation founded by former U.S. and British slaves, helped develop her interest in political leadership, especially in the realm of education. She says she experienced firsthand a violent military coup that affected her priorities. “I saw the importance of education,” she said. “When my family moved to Aurora in 1980, I truly discovered a land of opportunity. Today, higher education is the path to opportunity, and everyone deserves a chance to walk on that path.” Ricks is a graduate of the CUDenver Business School. She has nearly 20 years expe-

Carson has also emphasized the importance of “intellectual diversity” on the Boulder campus, which in recent years has created the position of “visiting scholar in conservative thought and policy.” “CU must continue to attract thinkers from diverse points of view and ensure that students are exposed to a full range of ideas,” the candidate said. Carson is a staunch supporter of the university’s athletics program. “This helps to raise private funding for the university, contributing to an affordable education for all students,” he said. “The university must insist upon the highest ethical standards in the operation of its athletic programs.” Carson received degrees from CU in political science and law.

If Ricks were to win, Democrats would take control of CU Regents for the first time in decades. Election Day is Nov. 4.
Teach your children financial independence Are your kids on the right track to financial independence?
Submitted by Metrum Community Credit Union For many of today’s young adults, the weakest link lies in learning the basics. Only 35 percent of teens know how to balance a checking account or manage credit cards. During the past several years, a decline in overall financial knowledge is especially pronounced among 18-year-olds, and 13 percent fewer teens have bank accounts, according to 2011 Teens and Money Survey, Charles Schwab. Achieving economic prosperity is difficult, and it’s especially hard for young people who’ve never learned how to manage
money. Your local credit union is ideally positioned to respond because we believe in the power of education. We’re here to help you launch the youth in your life toward financial independence, and here’s how:
income and expenses. As their skills improve, give them challenges—such as finding a better cell phone plan, calculating the total monthly cost of owning a car, or sticking to a budget for back-to-school or holiday spending.

Letters to the Editor Legalized pot a disaster for Colorado
Recently, a college student, after purchasing and eating a pot cookie, started shaking violently, and then jumped to his death from a Denver hotel room. A local man ate pot laced candy, stated hallucinating, and shot his wife to death. According to the Wall Street Journal, in recent years Denver area pot-related emergency room visits have more than tripled to 3,871. We even have the sad spectacle of Greeley fourth graders dealing pot at school. How did the great state of Colorado sink to such a low level when even New Jersey Gov. Chris
Christie has figured out that legalized pot is bad news. Well, tragically voters passed Amendment 64, which made pot legal in Colorado. But, perhaps this could change as Coloradans see this nightmare continue to unfold. A new amendment could be placed on the ballot to reverse Amendment 64. Perhaps the Colorado state government could propose legislation to overturn this dangerous policy, although that is unlikely with Democrat control of the Colorado Senate, House and governorship. In any event, our state needs to take steps to reverse the tragic consequences of legalized pot. Colorado doesn’t need more
suicides and murders.

For a full day, 25 high school senior girls, who thrive under the banner of Denver Ballet Guild, were pampered and prepped for a debut on the catwalk. These accomplished young women will pursue college and careers ranging from communications to medicine. They expressed their fashion sense and personalities
by choosing ensembles to model from Banana Republic in Park Meadows Retail Resort where the event was staged. They were escorted on the runway by 14 entertaining and witty members of the University of Denver Swim & Dive Team, which has become a tradition. Pam Baukus chaired the event with tremendous help from Amy Barlock, Katrina Benes, Holly Price, Gayle Teleznick and host of committee members, sponsors and community teamwork. The senior girls who were acknowledged, and in many cases
expressed warm and emotional appreciation to family via the emcee, were Ragan Anthony, Joy Barber, Brooke Barlock, Alessandra Beown, Makenzie Burnett, Danielle Clayton, Katherine Cortesy, Katherine Englert, Hannah Feehan, Haslam Ford, Rhodes Ford, Isabella Fredericks, Kayla Sue Hamilton, Rachael Hanley, Jessica Hutchins, Kaitlyn Kotelko, Rachel Manning, Allison May, Kate Melberg, Gia Pizzinchini, Hanna Reedy, McKenzie Reininger, Madison Weisiger, Nikki Welty and Keil Young. Young men from DU’s Swim

Adoption fundraiser is May 2 Friends of Horses Rescue & Adoption will be holding its annual Wine Sip and Silent Auction on Friday, May 2, at 6351 S. Peoria St. in Centennial. This event was a huge success last year and a good time was had by all. More importantly, the money raised was able to fill a substantial gap in the budget. Last year’s funds allowed FOH to pay for much needed veterinary services, helped to purchase hay during the winter price increases, and the endless maintenance and repairs on work vehicles. FOHRAA, a 501(c)3 nonprofit charitable organization, is dedicated to rescuing good horses and adopting them to good homes, therapeutic riding and community service. With more than 159 horses currently being cared for, FOHRAA is not a “typical” rescue. They offer a full service riding facility, with indoor and outdoor
arenas, riding lessons (jumping, western, therapeutic, dressage, and English) at all levels, and access to Cherry Creek State Park. In addition to horse adoption, they also offer the option to lease a horse on a monthly basis as well as private boarding. They are an organization that provides assistance to animals and people in the community. In the past 12 years, they have saved thousands of horses from the treacherous trip to the slaughter houses in Mexico and Canada. In 2013 they rescued 67, of which 10 were euthanized and 50 were adopted out. FOHRAA has also rescued 10 goats and 15 chickens. Last year they had 100+ volunteers come through and more than 300 people for community service. At all times FOHRAA has 50 horses on property available for adoption. The Wine Sip and Silent Auc-
tion’s fundraising goal this year is $50,000. A wide variety of items in all price ranges will be available at the auction this year, from a session in United’s flight simulator (this is a rare opportunity for two people to be pilots for a few hours learning to take off and land a 737) to artwork, clothes and beauty items. There is also a fly fishing experience on an exclusive private part of the Fraser River available. ! To help FOHRAA plan for food & wine please RSVP as soon as possible. The tickets are taxdeductible and this is a great opportunity for the to support the rescue. They welcome new community members and would love to share our mission with you. If you are unable to attend and would like to donate items for the silent auction, contact Mimi Kuchman at 303522-8810 or mimidenver@comcast.net. Visit www.fohrescue.com.

A special ‘senior’ prom By Tom Barry It was a senior prom, quite literally – and this year’s proved to be exceptionally unique for some very special people at the InnovAge Johnson Adult Day Program in Englewood, which provides adults with memory loss or physical impairment an opportunity to broaden their horizons. “Big Jim” Conder played an electronic keyboard and sang many of the hits from the 1940s and ‘50s to the smiles and delight of the prom attendees who recalled the music of yesteryear. Members of the Grandview High School leadership class led many of the seniors onto the dance floor and the young ones learned a step or two from the seniors. More than 120 family members, including some grandchildren, students and staff enjoyed the 17th annual Senior Citizens Prom. After a little dancing and some door prizes, Lynette Hanson, the lively activities coordinator, captured everyone’s attention by announcing this year’s royalty as “Big Jim” provided a makeshift drum roll on the keyboard. Joyce Boe, 87, was selected at the prom queen. She was all dolled up wearing a colorful blue vest and white corsage.

Learning Ally and DPS join to support students with learning disabilities
Learning Ally and the Denver Public Schools are joining together to support district students with learning disabilities. A $500,000 grant through The Denver Foundation will provide support for students and their parents and teacher training. Every public and affiliated charter school in Denver will be provided with a Learning Ally institutional membership. Through these memberships, students with specific learning disabilities will gain access to Learning Ally’s library of 80,000 human-narrated audio textbooks and literature titles, an online library that covers just about all required reading for school, and it can all be accessed from home and over the summer. The two-year initiative will also provide critical comprehensive resources for parents of struggling readers in the Denver area, as well as professional training for the teachers who work with these students in the classroom. Robert Frantum-Allen, program manager for Instruction and Professional Development for the Denver Public Schools, said for students with a print reading disability, such as dyslexia, recorded text options can allow access to materials for science, geography, and history. “We are excited to have access to Learning Ally’s incredible library of resources for students who struggle with learning content through traditional approaches to reading,” he said. This is critically needed as Denver Mayor Michael Hancock pointed out recently that one unnamed community in the U.S. plans the number of prison cells it needs to build judging by the number of their school district who are not reading by third grade. In my own experience back in the dark ages, students with dyslexia can struggle diligently
to learn to read but traditional methods just don’t often work. To draw an analogy, think of this: try reading all those protest signs in Crimea recently that were written in Cyrillic. Unless you are trained to read in Russian with their separate alphabet, you probably couldn’t make any sense of what was scrawled on those banners. Now think for a moment, how well would you do in a local classroom facing this type of writing? Does it go left to right or right to left and what are those letters anyway? Illiterate comes to mind and it’s heartbreaking to try to teach these students when their brains scramble the letters every which way. Educating these children and teens with dyslexia is now possible with the Learning Ally materials.
Etiquette
Bad health news travels faster than a drought-ridden grass fire and in the community of charity supporters it hits hard. We talk about it between our healthy selves at board and event meetings but often fail to contact the ill person because we don’t know what to say. If the illness is likely to be terminal are we scared the same future will come to us, avoiding unhappy situations or flat out a loss for words? When I had female surgery over a decade ago, only one person called my husband the morning after while I was in a concierge room at a local hospital. The caller asked if I was really bleeding to death, as she’d been told. So she asked if I was alright. My hubby looked over at me and replied, “She’s put her eyebrows on so I guess she’s OK.” When facing the ill friend I would start by saying I’m so sorry to learn that you’re ill. What happened? What’s next for your care and recovery? I want to help. What can I do for you right now? A strong friendship sculpted over decades can make a real difference as this one person marshals others to get into action. Make plans to help with child care or perhaps even hubby-care, bringing over the proverbial casserole dish, walking Rover, picking up and delivering prescriptions, or running errands to places the ill person needs to go, especially to follow-up surgical appointments with the physician in charge of
the patient’s care. Coordinate a plan to provide what the ill person needs and be available for unplanned complications. Would you want to become a guardian that the friend’s medical team is approved to confide in? Would you want to be next of kin sort of, especially if the patient has few or no family to turn to? But sometimes it’s more complicated, as the April issue of More magazine points out, “Almost 20 percent of women said that if they were sick, their first choice for intimate help – bathing, dressing, toileting – would be a close female friend… perhaps especially for single women,” they quoted as said by Ph.D. clinical research prof at a medical school in Columbia. Other patients just want someone to listen as they give detailed descriptions of their medical situation, needing to talk about the trauma, fear or exhilaration at finding that the surgery went or didn’t go well. Suddenly an army of close friends may defect even though the illness wasn’t contagious. Don’t get into a close caregiving situation, committing to a schedule of help for an ill person unless you are sincere and plan to go the extra mile to “be there” when you aren’t perhaps being honest about the time you really have to give. Are you emotionally capable of dealing with a friend whose prognosis is murky? If so, dig in and become a life raft for the patient, planning a level of service that you will, perhaps surprisingly, find is soul fulfilling. Caregiver burnout can become a terminal illness in itself, i.e. Superman icon, Chris Reeves, who was paralyzed after a fall from a horse. Chris was given seven years and even with the best possible ongoing professional help, he passed at about that time. Not long after, his wife Dana, who’d never smoked a day in her life, was diagnosed with lung cancer, an illness that claimed her. So what do you say when seeing the friend-turned patient? I’m sorry for your illness. Asking what you can do to help is one good conversation starter. Don’t be a Pollyanna and be dismissive of the seriousness of the illness and say, “Oh, I’m sure you’ll beat the odds.” Are you really sure? If not, skip that tack. Does the person want spiritual help even though they may not have ever expressed
a religious belief? Ask and without becoming evangelistic, offer to find a spiritual source of information and comfort. I am a lifelong person of the Jewish faith, but it was a nun who comforted me as I was about to be wheeled into surgery many years ago after Dave had been told he had to go to the surgery waiting room. Upon locking eyes later at a fundraising event, the sister and I hugged and I told her how much her being bedside meant to me. Find books that are comforting, positive and easy for the patient to read. Humor can ease pain, if for
only a little while, distracting the patient from their medical crisis. The article in More magazine mentions a book by well-known author Letty Cottin Pogrebin that’s titled, “How to be a Friend to a Friend Who’s Sick.” I have not read it but it certainly sounds like it would be the right prescription for a friend to give to a friend and perhaps even keep the book circulating among close friends whenever one needs it. gloryweisberg@comcast.net

By Scottie Taylor Iverson There was a daylong schedule of festivities built around the formal installation of the 14th president of Iliff School of Theology – the Rev. Dr. Thomas V. Wolfe. The Installation Luncheon began at 12:30 p.m. at the school’s Shattuck Hall. At 2:30 p.m. guests moved across the street to the grand University Park United Methodist Church for the two-hour installation that included hymns and greetings from representatives from various religions as well as academic institutions from around the nation. Following the installation, there was a reception and faculty showcase at the Iliff School of theology. Wolfe is married to the Rev. Marilyn N. Wolfe, LSW, who is an ordained elder in full connection in the Upper NY Conference. They have two daughters and sons-in-law and one granddaughter. The Rev. Dr. Thomas V. Wolfe serves as the president and CEO of The Iliff School of Theology, an appointment that began on Aug. 1, 2013. He was recently appointed to Gov. John Hickenlooper’s Commission on the Sand Creek Massacre Commemoration, is an active member of the Religious Advisory Council and a member of the Denver Rotary Club. Wolfe holds a BA degree from Lycoming College in Williamsport, Pa., a Master of Divinity degree from Pacific School of Religion in Berkeley, Calif., and Ph.D. in higher education administration from Syracuse University.

Denver Ballet Guild Luncheon its best ever
By Glory Weisberg The Denver Ballet Guild held its Spring Membership Luncheon at Cherry Hills Country Club and attracted 84 women who got the lowdown on the success of the guild’s past year and it was exciting! Dancers from 3rd Law Dance did a spectacular number called, “Orange Tutu.” It was a winner and from there it was on to lunch in the club ballroom. The guild gave $85,000 to selected dance companies and 4,300 students in the metro area schools were served with funds raised from membership dues and, of course, Le Bal de Ballet Debutante Ball in 2013, chaired by Debbie Raeder. That ball draws in new blood for the guild as past honorees’ moms love to get on board to support the many activities they’d enjoyed when their Young Men of Distinction and Debutantes were honored. It takes 100 women volunteering their time to put on the calendar of guild events that also include Les Demoiselles and Les Cygnettes groups of students who enjoyed performances at the Buell Theater, the Arvada Center, The Stage Theater, the Ellie Caulkins Opera House and the Littleton Town Hall Arts Center, plus other fun gatherings such as a Mother/Daughter Fashion Show and a Father/Daughter event. Last Aug. 18 Les Cygnettes had a kickoff membership event at Canvas and Cocktails at The Streets at SouthGlenn. With all those activities, parents get to know each other well and perhaps get into carpools too. For some of these offspring, friendships last well past high school, into college and yes, even into careers and their weddings. This year’s Le Bal, chaired by Hillary Adams, is close to a sellout with more than 900 reservations. Pamela Adams is heading a women’s table at the ball, June 7. The 2015 Le Bal will be chaired by Denise Nalen, wife of former Denver Bronco Tom Nalen. Among the ladies who attended the Spring Membership Luncheon, which Julie Kucera chaired, included outgoing President Kathy Konopka, incoming President Pam Gatz, Marla Gentry, Shellie Munn, LaFawn Biddle, Liz Clarke, Kathy Wells, Jean Armstrong, Pam Kelsall, Karen Walker, Laura Harmon, Mary Lou Hibben, Gail Kassan, Ericka McDaniel and many others. gloryweisberg@comcast.net

2014 Lexus IS 250 is top-notch luxury By H. Throttle The 2014 Lexus IS 250 is a sleek Lexus luxury four-door sedan that is slightly smaller than some of the larger models and sells at a lesser amount around $47,000 at a local dealership. I visited Kuni Lexus in Greenwood Village to have a walk through of this very sophisticated model. This car has voice commands, GPS, paddle shifts, and about every luxury appointment that Lexus can engineer into their excellent products. Lexus dealers have wonderful product delivery personnel who acquaint new Lexus owners with how to get the most enjoyment out of their model purchases. My vehicle delivery and technology specialist was Reana Mestan, who was just great. She is studying to become an automotive engineer. These are wonderful cars equipped with the finest technology that money can buy. Such is the case with the more compact IS 250. This particular vehicle would compete with BMW and smaller performance quality compacts, although not as small, and with very comfortable and roomy rear heated eight-way folding power seats. It is always interesting to hear what rear seat passengers have to say about the ride. We often times don’t think about the kids, grandparents or friends who are riding along in the backseat to a baseball game or dinner event. The IS 250 has a very roomy back seat. Lexus is the Toyota luxury
The 2014 Lexus IS 250 four-door sedan is priced at $47,000.
brand and their engineers have designed great engines linked to sixway automatic transmission with steering wheel paddle shifters on the higher end models, such as the IS 250. The paddle shifters are well known on Porsche models. Understanding the 15-speaker sound system, the screen controls for audio, and all special services take a brief introduction given by Reana at Kuni Lexus. Touching a screen brings the entire operation of the vehicle and technical information into the driver’s world. A button on the steering wheel brings an instant, “How can I assist you,” message from a satellite connection. Putting all the bells and whistles aside, and there are many in these new high-tech vehicles of all brands, the bottom line is how does
the car drive and perform. The IS 250 was an instant success, like a ballerina the “Nebula Gray Pearl” sedan danced out of the parking lot. It was instant pleasure with the smooth, silky ride, wonderful transmission with wide choices of gears, but really never having to leave the drive range and the convenience of touching the paddle shifters to change gears for freeway passing or mountain hill climbs. I really liked this car and it is really a businessperson’s dream car. Surprisingly, this test IS 250 was not turbo-charged but the finely tuned V-6 engine purred pleasantly when accelerating rapidly. The 204 horsepower engine had more than enough stamina to rocket down the freeway and up the mountain highways.
This car arrived during one of the recent snowstorms and I was thankful for the all-wheel drive features including a “snow” mode where the four wheels really grabbed the snowy covered highway never spinning a tire. The heating system worked well and the ice and snow quickly melted off the windows. The snowstorm made me like the model even more than ever, as I was snug, safe, warm and very comfortable in the 10-way power seat with two-lumbar controls. This model is perfect for the professional man or woman who wants to arrive at work or the social scene driving an elegant car.

County partners with Greenwood Village and Goldsmith Terrace Tower protects open space for thousands of residents in the heart of DTC
Arapahoe County residents will soon enjoy a prime parcel of land in the heart of the Denver Tech Center that will be preserved as parkland and open space. The county is partnering with the City of Greenwood Village and the Goldsmith Metropolitan District to acquire 5.36 acres as part of the Terrace Tower proposal. In February, the Board of County Commissioners approved spending up to $600,000 from the Arapahoe County Open Space Fund to help Greenwood Village and Goldsmith acquire the parcel in an area that lacks parks, open space and passive recreational opportunities. The land, located in Greenwood Village between I-25 and DTC Parkway and north of West Ulster Circle, had been slated for commercial development. As part of the agreement, the county’s $600,000 will be matched by both Greenwood Village and Goldsmith, which also has committed to the ongoing maintenance of the property. The total cost for the property is $1.8 million. “The Terrace Tower project really exemplifies what our open-space pace program is all about and is a great partnership between Arapahoe County, the City of Greenwood Village and the Goldsmith Metro District,” said Commissioner Nancy Sharpe, who represents District 2, which includes Greenwood Village. “Preserving this beautiful parcel of land, which sits between two high-rise office towers, improves the trail access to the Orchard Light Rail Station and serves as a prime open-space area that thousands of nearby residents and employees will enjoy today and in the future.” The vacant parcel sits within a developed corridor with bluegrass, landscaped areas, shade trees, shrubs and some seating areas. The parcel could serve as a neighborhood park to an estimated 2,040 residential units within a half-mile radius, as well as employees, customers, and visitors to the Tech Center. “The collaboration between Arapahoe County, Greenwood Village and the Goldsmith Metro District to purchase this property facilitates our vision for the future of open space in Greenwood Village,” said Greenwood Village Mayor Ron Rakowsky. Funding for these projects is made possible by the citizens of Arapahoe County through the voter-approved Arapahoe County Open Space Sales and Use Tax dedicated to preserve open space, enhance parks, build trail connections and protect heritage areas. It first approved by voters in 2003 and reapproved in 2011 to extend the quarter of a penny salesand-use tax for an additional 10 years to Dec. 31, 2023. Since the program’s inception, it has conserved more than 31,000 acres of open space, built more than 50 miles of new trails and created and enhanced 157 neighborhood and regional parks. For more information about Arapahoe County’s Open Space program, visit www. arapahoegov.com.

Honeybee swarm season is nearly upon us Contact Swarm Hotline if you see one
Mid-April to late June is a typical time for honeybee swarm season in Colorado. “We will be expecting swarms to emerge in the next couple of weeks,” said to Beth Conrey, president of the Colorado State Beekeepers Association. CSBA, a statewide organization of beekeepers, is dedicated to honey bee health. For the sixth year, they are running the “Swarm Hotline” and are asking folks to keep an eye out for swarming honeybees. A swarm is one of the true wonders of nature. Swarms emerge in the spring when a healthy hive becomes too crowded and part of them leave to form a new hive. When the queen lands on a branch or post, the rest of the bees all land near her forming a “ball of bees.” Swarms are harmless — but can be intimidating to the average citizen. Conrey said, “Do not spray a swarm with water or insecticide. Simply pick up the phone and call the swarm hotline. We will dispatch a beekeeper to pick it up—usually within an hour.” Swarms are not only a fascinating natural process of honeybee reproduction, they are a sign of something promising: healthy honeybees in Colorado. The health and well being of honeybees has been in jeopardy since 2006. Beekeepers began reporting
losses of 30-90 percent of their hives, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The bees were just gone without a trace, leaving behind a puzzle that has a label, Colony Collapse Disorder. Bee scientists say there’s no single explanation for CCD: it’s just everything that bees are exposed to these days: pests, pathogens, pesticides, and the lack of floral diversity. As Earth Day approaches the CSBA wants to make people more aware of the important link between healthy honeybee populations, human interaction, and our food supply. According to the National Resources Defense Council, bees pollinate more than $15 billion worth of crops each year in the United States alone. Put another way, one of every three bites of food Americans consume comes from a plant visited by bees or other pollinators. Without bees, many fruits, vegetables and nuts (especially almonds) would disappear from our diets. There are thousands of managed bee colonies in Colorado and they are typical of colonies throughout the country with losses in the 30-70 percent range annually. Bees that are healthy enough to swarm are called “survivor” bees and are crucial to sustaining bee populations in Colorado. If you see a swarm, call the Swarm Hotline: 970-213-3099 or want to know more about honeybees http://coloradobeekeepers.org/ education/help-the-honeybee/.

I can help you accomplish your real estate goals Drought or no drought, smart water use is essential Denver Water’s summer watering rules begin May 1 After responding to multiple years of drought conditions, Denver Water stresses the importance of using water efficiently, regardless of the weather. “We just came out of a severe drought, and our customers did a great job of answering our call to save even more water than usual last year,” said Greg Fisher, Denver Water’s manager of demand planning. “But, water conservation isn’t a drought response; it must be a permanent way of life for all of us.” To help eliminate outdoor water waste, Denver Water implements annual summer water use rules, which begin May 1. Watering rules, which help facilitate smart irrigation, include: Water during cooler times of the day – lawn watering is NOT allowed between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. Water no more than three days per week. Do not allow water to pool in gutters, streets and alleys. Do not waste water by letting it spray on concrete or asphalt. Repair leaking sprinkler systems within 10 days.
Do not irrigate while it is raining or during high winds. Use a hose nozzle with a shutoff valve when washing your car. “The landscape may be green, but that doesn’t mean it needs a lot of water.” said Jeff Tejral, Denver Water’s manager of conservation. “Typically, early in the irrigation season, two days of watering a week will be enough.” Denver Water will have a team of nine Water Savers out in the community to provide customers with tips and tools for water-saving practices this summer. Water Savers will also respond to reports of water waste. To report water waste, call Denver Water at 303-893-2444, and if you see waste in one of Denver’s parks, call 3-1-1. “Many times people are either unaware of a rule or something happened to their irrigation system, like a broken sprinkler head, and they appreciate being notified of the issue,” said Tejral. “We’ll send out a Water Saver as a friendly way to work with customers to help them locate and address any problems.” Visit www.denverwater.org/ conservation for conservation tips, rebates, irrigation calculators and many more tools for saving water outdoors, including suggested watering times.

Denver metro area luxury home sales rebound Submitted by Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage After dipping in February, luxury home sales in the Denver metro area rebounded strongly in March with sales doubling from the previous month and jumping 18.3 percent from a year ago, according to a new report by Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage. The figures are based on Multiple Listing Service data of all homes sold for more than $1 million last month in the Denver metro area. A total of 84 luxury homes changed hands in March, up from just 42 in February and 71 in March 2013. The median sale price last month was $1,257,000, up fractionally from February and down 1.4 percent from last
March. The upper end of the luxury market last month recorded 13 sales more than $2 million, up from 10 a year ago and just three in February. But homes took a little longer to sell on average in March than they did in March 2013. “The luxury market turned in a solid month in March, due in part to a gradual increase in inventory,” said Chris Mygatt, president of Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage. “We still don’t have enough good listings in the market to meet the strong buyer demand, but we’re moving in the right direction. Word is finally getting out to homeowners that this is a great market to sell your home. Hopefully we’ll see more inventory as spring continues.”
Some key findings from this month’s Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage luxury report: The most expensive sale in the Denver Metro Area last month was a seven-bedroom, five-bath approximately 10,700-squarefoot home in Denver that sold for $4,650,000; Denver boasted the most million-dollar sales with 23, followed by Boulder with 21, Greenwood Village and Longmont with five each, and Highlands Ranch with four; Homes sold in an average of 143 days on the market, up from 133 days a year ago and 117 days the previous month; Sellers received an average of 95 percent of their asking price, down from 96.1 percent a year ago and even with the previous month.

Local senior living leader creates two new companies to better serve older adults Christian Living Communities, a Colorado, faithbased, not-for-profit senior care and services organization, has restructured by launching a new parent company, Christian Living Ventures, which focuses on mergers, acquisitions and affiliations with other senior care organization to create more affordable senior housing. Christian Living Ventures will be a 501(c)3 not-forprofit and allows the leaders of the organization to expand its mission of enriching the lives of seniors by helping other not-for-profits in need of guidance. The organizational restructure also creates a new sister company, Christian Living Services, a taxable not-for-profit that offers consulting and management services to non-owned communities. This company allows CLC, a highly sought after industry leader in senior services, to share its more than 40 years of excellent operational expertise with both not-forprofit and for-profit entities. Christian Living Services was recently brought on to be the operating partner of Rosemark at Mayfair Park, a 72,000 square-foot, 88-unit assisted living/memory support senior care community that is scheduled to open in the Denver Mayfair neighborhood in mid-2015. The project developer, Rosemark
Development Group selected CLS from half a dozen potential partners because of its excellent reputation. The creation of both companies is a direct response to the needs of the ‘Silver Tsunami,’ the term used describe aging baby boomers. The number of people 65-plus will double between 2010 and 2050 and the number of those 85 or older increasing four fold. Between 2000 and 2010, for the first time in Colorado, the 65-plus population grew at a faster rate than the state population: 32 percent compared with 17 percent. Whether it is creating more affordable senior housing or partnering in the management of more senior housing, this new structure positions the trio of companies to serve more older adults than ever before. All the while, Christian Living Communities will continue its excellent track record of providing a full continuum of services and care to older adults and their families in the south Denver area with its three retirement communities, Clermont Park, Holly Creek and Someren Glen and through its two adult day services and home care services. In all, CLC touches the lives of nearly 1,000 seniors a day. Day to day operations of CLC (with a $50 million budget) will not change, employees and residents can expect busi-

A SPECTRUM RETIREMENT COMMUNIT Y HP Villager 5 1 15 14
Richard (Dick) TenEyck died April 20 at Littleton Adventist Hospital. His wife Teen was with him when he passed. Dick was born to Agnes and Ariel TenEyck in Elizabeth, N.J., in 1926. After completing high school, he served his country in the Army Corps of Engineers for two years during WWII. He completed a BS in business administration at Lehigh University in 1949; that year he began working for the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company in Akron, Ohio. He married Teen Cunningham of Akron in 1950. In 1962, he moved his family to Westfield, N.J. He worked at McKinsey & Company, later migrating to senior management positions within Metropolitan Life Insurance Company and ITT – all in NYC. In 1972, he and the family moved to Colorado, settling in Greenwood Village where he served on that city’s Planning and Zoning Board for many years. In 1974, Dick established his own consulting firm, and became a CMC (Certified Management Consultant) as designated by the Institute of Management Consultants. He was founder and president of the Greater Denver Chapter of that organization, and is a past chairman of the national organization. In 1995, he was elected a Fellow of the Institute in recognition of his long and distinguished service to the profession. His firm twice was included on a list of the “100 Leading Management Consulting Firms in the USA Today.” He retired from active practice in 2000 but continued to serve on the Board of the Denver IMC chapter. Over the years Dick was chairman of the Small Business Council and board member of the Greater Denver Chamber of Commerce; was a founding board member of the South Metro Chamber of Commerce; served on the Governor’s Small Business Council; and was an elected delegate to the 1986 White House Conference on Small Business. He was also chairman, Board of Trustees, of the Swedish Medical Center Foundation; and was a commercial panelist for the American Arbitration Association. In 1998, he was elected a Significant Sig (Sigma Chi Fraternity) in recognition of his years of service to the broad entrepreneurial community and especially to those entrepreneurs he proudly mentored all along the
Richard (Dick) TenEyck Front Range of Colorado. A proud “Dutchman,” Dick began exploring his family’s ancestry in 2000. He completed his genealogical connection to the early-day immigrant Coenraet TenEyck in 2005; that same year he was elected to membership in the Holland Society of New York and has been Rocky Mountain Branch president since 2006. The Holland Society collects, researches, preserves and presents history, traditions and genealogy of the Dutch colonial period in New Amsterdam. Dick loved good music; jazz, Big Band, Anglican Men and Boy Choir presentations; and ballads from the ‘30s and ‘40s. His other passion was making people laugh and often groan, using the English language as a foil for making puns and word jokes. Dick is survived by his wife of 64 years, Teen; his three sons, Peter, David and Jon; and his seven grandchildren, Erica, Dana, Cole, Cody, Kevin, Stephen and Katelyn, all of whom reside in Colorado. A Memorial Service will be held Saturday, May 3, at 11 a.m. at St. Timothy’s Episcopal Church, 1401 E. Dry Creek Road, Centennial. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the church.

CDOT to replace I-25 bridge over Arapahoe Road $118 million project
“I
By Tom Barry t’s déjà vu all over again,” to quote Yankee great Yogi Berra, as the Colorado Department of Transportation once again begins to ramp up another major construction project in the southeast Denver quadrant. CDOT’s T-REX $1.6 billion road project was completed eight years ago after motorists endured 19 miles of reconstruction and nightmarish traffic jams. The state’s transportation agency will now tackle the reconstruction of the I-25 bridge over the heavily traversed Arapahoe Road. The federally required environmental assessment that was completed last year recommends an “improved partial-cloverleaf interchange.” The preliminary design work will begin this summer along with fieldwork to collect updated data. The endeavor will result in

some nighttime lane closures in May, according to Crystal Morgan, CDOT’s spokeswoman. This bridge replacement “and other improvements to the interchange … will reduce congestion and improve traffic operations and safety,” she said. Construction is anticipated to begin in early 2016 and be completed in 2017, said Morgan. The cost is estimated to be $50.4 million, with local entities providing matching funds for a total of $68 million. Arapahoe County, the City of Centennial, the City of Greenwood Village and the Southeast Public Improvement Metropolitan District will provide the matching funds. “After many years of study, CDOT is very excited to begin the design work and construct the interchange improvements,” said Telecia McCline, a CDOT project engineer. “The interim improvements to add a through lane outside the barrier helped traffic flow, but travelers will see much greater operational and safety benefits throughout the in-
