A heave-ho to Prince Charming
‘Gorilla and the Fairy’ is a tale of domestic violence
By Peter Jones or an epoch or two, fairytales – and their wellworn musical adaptions – have spread the odd myth that all a damsel in distress really needs a kiss and quick rescue from a readily available handsome prince. The formula even worked when the prince and evildoer were one in the same. In Beauty and the Beast, the brutish protagonist is transformed into a charming bon vivant by the well-placed truelove kiss of his codependent captive. “A lot of the time, it seems like the point of a fairytale is to get the guy,” said Georgia Lundeen, a children’s author and musical arranger. Likewise, her friend Tina Hamilton, the singer-actress-director-writer-composer who runs Greenwood Village-based Hamilton Arts Academy, thinks such stories leave little room for independent women, or non-heroic men.

Arapahoe clerk won’t issue same-sex licenses Announcement comes in wake of court decisions
By Peter Jones Gay couples may get married in Denver, Boulder or Pueblo, but they won’t be doing so in Arapahoe County any time soon. Last week, Clerk and Recorder Matt Crane issued a statement indicating that his office would not be following the lead of other counties that began issuing marriage licenses to gay couples last week after two court decisions cast doubt on the future of Colorado’s ban on same-sex marriage. “Our position has not changed,
and Arapahoe County will continue to uphold Colorado’s constitutional provision on same-sex marriage, and will follow Colorado statute by issuing civil-union certificates to same-sex couples. We will abide by any future court rulings that impact Colorado,” the July 10 statement said. Gay-marriage boosters have been encouraged by the two recent court decisions, which have been seen by some as a green light to legalize gay marriage. Meanwhile, state Attorney General John Suthers is expected to ask the Colorado Supreme Court to bring some finality to the chaos and legal ambiguity.
On July 10, Boulder District Court Judge Andrew Hartman rejected Suthers’ request to injunct Boulder County Clerk and Recorder Hillary Hall from issuing licenses to gay couples in violation of a voter-approved state constitutional amendment that prohibits gay marriage. Hartman’s ruling arguably opened the doors for other county clerks across Colorado to consider issuing such licenses, even though they could later be declared invalid if a higher court were to uphold the state’s ban. That possibility appeared to be one of Crane’s chief concerns. “The decision by the Boul-

der County District Court does not have bearing on the Arapahoe County Clerk and Recorder’s Office because it did not address the underlying legality or constitutionality of same-sex marriage in Colorado,” Crane’s statement said. A day before the Boulder decision, a ruling by Adams County District Court Judge C. Scott Crabtree said the ban was unconstitutional and bore “no rational relationship to any conceivable government interest.” Because Crabtree stayed his decision in anticipation of highercourt rulings, Crane’s statement said the ruling “has no effect in Colorado.”

Music fans will take a ride on everything from banjo music to funk on the main stage, July 24-27. The local music gets a-pickin’ on Thursday, July 24, at 4 p.m. when the Mile High Banjo Society plays about anything for which the banjo is integral, from “Beer Barrel Polka” to the theme from Deliverance. Later that evening at 6:30 p.m., Boomers will dig into the music of the post-World War II generation, from the Beatles to the Doobie Brothers to Flock of Seagulls.

Tancredo scores free pot – legally – at movie premiere
Former 6th District lawmaker is legalization advocate
By Peter Jones Where there’s smoke, there’s fire, especially if Tom Tancredo is around. The former 6th District congressman is known to stir the pot with controversy – and last week he accepted free marijuana at a movie premiere and then struck an unlikely pose with the film’s star. At the July 10 premiere of a new comedy-documentary, Mile High: The Comeback of Cannabis, at Denver’s Mayan Theater, the failed Republican gubernatorial candidate, who has a role in the movie, arrived on a Harley motorcycle and accepted producer-star Adam Hartle’s gift of free pot.

“This is no different than when the Rockies have free beer night at Coors Field, and I think it’s about time adults get something healthy at the movie theater, instead of sugar water and candy,” he said. Mile High is a comedic take on Amendment 64, the state constitutional amendment that legalized recreational marijuana in Colorado. The film blends nonfiction elements with Hartle’s comedy, beginning with the 64 vote and ending with the opening of the nation’s first recreational-marijuana shops. In one of the final scenes, Hartle smokes what he says was the first joint sold legally in the United States during an interview with Tancredo, where the smoke seems to effect the former congressman.

Tancredo has been a longtime supporter of marijuana legalization. “These kinds of prohibitions really are the ultimate manifestation of the nanny state,” Tancredo once told The Villager. “… What I tell my conservative friends is, look who’s on your side.

Look to your right and you’re going to see the drug cartels.” Although he is a supporter of legalization, Tancredo said he has never used it and reportedly planned to give his gift to the husband of his wife’s hairdresser who consumes the plant medicinally.

County finalizes primary election Turnout 30 percent of active voters in major parties The Arapahoe County Clerk and Recorder’s Office completed work on the 2014 primary election with the results being certified by the County Board of Canvassers on July 7. The election decided which candidates of major political parties would appear on the Nov. 4 ballot for local, state and federal seats. Voter turnout was 30 percent of active registered voters affiliated with the Democratic, Republican or American Constitution Parties. Unaffiliated voters and those registered with minority parties were not eligible to vote in this election. The Board of Canvassers was required to canvass the results within 13 days of the primary.
Board members included Clerk and Recorder Matt Crane, Arapahoe County Democratic Party Chair John Buckley and Republican Party Chair Joy Hoffman. The board’s duties included reviewing: • The name of each candidate receiving votes, the office and the total number of votes received • The number of mail-in ballots cast, including the number accepted and rejected • The number of ballots cast on electronic voting machines The 2014 primary was the first conducted in Colorado under new provisions mandating that mail ballots be sent to all eligible, active voters, while still providing in-person voting options. Arapahoe County issued ballots to 212,052 active voters who were affiliated with one of the major par-
ties. The county also offered voter services at four Voter Service and Polling Centers in Centennial, Littleton, Aurora and Byers. In total, 63,611 ballots were cast, of which 99.8 percent were mail-in ballots, while 132 people voted on a machine or cast a ballot at a Voter Service and Polling Center. The voter turnout was 62.6 percent Republican voters, 37.3 percent Democratic voters, and one-tenth of one percent American Constitution voters. Approximately 39 percent of mail ballots were returned to a ballot drop-off location, while 61 percent were returned via the Postal Service. No provisional ballots were cast.

‘Gorilla and the Fairy’ a 21st century folktale Continued from page 1 These messages about the rescuer send messages to young girls and boys that young boys have to be perfect and can’t be helpless ever,” she said. Enter The Gorilla in the Fairy, a 21st century folktale that turns Prince Charming on his head, but not before the old galoot learns a thing or two about how to treat a woman. The sort of anti-Beauty and the Beast is a fanciful, yet straightforward, allegory about domestic violence – though the “beast” gets a kiss-off, instead of a kiss, and may need judicial intervention before living unhappily ever after. “The first time I read it, I felt like it was a musical,” Hamilton said of the 2002 short story by Carol Young of Washington state. “I’d read a page and just start singing. It often happens if I read a good book.” Flash forward: Hamilton and Lundeen will bring an in-progress version of their musical adaption of The Gorilla and the Fairy to the Koelbel and Eloise May libraries, July 24-27, in free workshops where audience feedback will be encouraged. “It’s like a final fitting for a tuxedo,” Hamilton said. “There’s so many levels involved. All musicals go through this process where we have to flesh it out on stage.” As its title and social premise imply, The Gorilla and the Fairy finds the latter naively falling in with the former, only to be brutalized – but finally revitalized when she leaves her abuser to wallow in his forest of loveless self-importance. But unlike other fairytales, the beast is not redeemed at the end and is never saved by the love of his victim – nor does the fairy rely on some prince or the kiss of her villain to fly independently into her dreams. This fairy is no enabler. “There’s compassion for him in the book,” Hamilton said of the
The Gorilla and the Fairy
Director-writer-composer Tina Hamilton of Greenwood Village’s Hamilton Arts Academy was inspired to craft a musical version of The Gorilla and the Fairy after having her own experiences with relationship violence.
A lot of the time, it seems like the point of a fairytale is to get the guy. - Georgia Lundeen, children’s author and musical arranger hapless gorilla. “He doesn’t know how to love and his soul’s not well. It’s not her job to make his soul well. It’s his choice.” The 19-page picture book and its message of resilience were just what Hamilton needed after exiting her own series of abusive relationships. After lamenting her perceived poor decisions, her grandmother pulled the book from the shelf. “So I read it and it was very, very hopeful for me. It helped me have forgiveness for my choices,” she said. Before long, Hamilton was bringing her musical ideas to the keyboard and recruiting Lundeen to help with the arrangements. Putting the show together has had its challenges, she said. It is not often that apes and pixies are paired in fables – much less musicals –

Author Carol Young will attend and sign books. Donations to Gateway Battered Women’s Services will be accepted. For more information, call 303-330-9020. about real-life social issues. In the wrong hands, the results could be disastrous. “When we had auditions, we had people come in that made the gorilla kind of cartoonish, and then [actor Ryan Torres] came in and just really read it real,” Hamilton said, noting that dancing ape costumes will not be part of the act. As anachronistic as fairy tales may seem – even prompting 1994’s satiric Politically Correct Bedtime Stories – some may find reason to take equal issue with The Gorilla and the Fairy. Online reviewers have taken it to task for an arguably negative stereotype of gorillas and for its lack of positive male characters. Hamilton and Lundeen are ready for the critics to bring it on again at their upcoming workshops, where audience members, as well as the cast, will be encouraged to provide feedback. The collaborators say songs and characters could be added, changed or deleted as a result. This was not the first time Hamilton has read a book on a serious subject and brought it to musical life. Some years ago, she took Out of the Dust, Karen Hesse’s Newberry Award-winning novel about life in the 1930s Dust Bowl, and turned it into a one-woman musical, sung a cappella. “Music has the capacity to make things go deeper in a second,” she said.

Dog Days: Summer Rains Are Most Welcome KINDLING
By Robert Sweeney
W
hen I was a youngster I spent my summers working in the hay fields of far northwest Colorado. My cousin Jason came to help us hay and we loved to hunt, fish and swim. Whenever it rained we couldn’t cut and stack hay so we were able to skip away from chores and go play — we especially loved swimming. This summer, with all the rain,
we would certainly turn into fish and the cattle wouldn’t have any hay to eat during the long cold winter. Glad that I turned in the pitchfork, hay rake, and mowing machine for a typewriter and now a smartphone and Apple computer. Still like to swim. *** Went out to the old Phipps’ Mansion, now called the Highlands Ranch Mansion, in Douglas County last week. Last owned by the historic Phipps family, the Mansion is fabulous and only about three miles off E-470 and Broadway. The castle-like structure has been completely restored and has beautiful manicured grounds with elaborate flowers and shrubs. What a great place to have a wedding or non-profit event. The address is 9950 E. Gateway Dr. and phone is 303-791-0177. I was there at the invitation of Chrysler to see the “new face” of its exciting 2015 models, and in
particular, the new Chrysler 200 series. We were able to drive three new models with new engines, all-wheel drive, fuel economy up to 36 mpg, and the latest in engineering technology that includes nine-speed transmissions. These were very nice cars and we would recommend that car buyers dash over and see Dealin’ Doug at one of his local dealerships soon. Doug Moreland, by the way, is a fabulous supporter of Cancer League of Colorado and the Hope Ball, donating a Jeep Wagoner and/or Chrysler product year after year. Fiat has completed the purchase of Chrysler and is manufacturing these vehicles in Detroit and making huge strides in improving the products. Jeep, of course, is leading most brands in recognition and sales. *** Long time friend and Colorado historian Bob Pulcipher has

Harry Truman once said, “If you want a real friend that you can trust in Washington — go buy a dog!” Franklin D. Roosevelt’s statement in 1934 could well apply to today’s government handouts. He said, “The Federal Government must and shall quit this business of Relief. Continued dependence upon Relief induces spiritual and moral disintegration fundamentally destructive to National fiber. To dole out relief in this way is to administer a narcotic, a subtle destroyer of the human spirit.” Kenneth James,words CFA on John F. W. Kennedy’s a “tax cut” should be listened to today. “Our true choice is not between tax reduction on the one hand and the avoidance of large Fed Deficits on the other. Our economy stifled by restrictive tax rates will never produce enough revenue to balance the budget. Just as it will never produce enough jobs or enough profits.” The following by Ronald Reagan is a good way to end: “Liberty has never come from government. The history of liberty is the history of limitation of government power not the increase of it.”

She would support overturning much of the gun legislation passed by Democrats last term. “It’s clear that Coloradans support reasonable gun laws, but when a bill makes it illegal for someone to loan a friend a shotgun during hunting season, I think that’s taking a background check too far,” she said.

The Englewood resident became active in the Republican Party in her mid-20s as a precinct leader, a campaign volunteer and a voice of encouragement in efforts to get younger voters involved in the electoral process. Benge expects a challenge in taking on an incumbent, but remains optimistic. “I think this is a very good year for Republicans. We’ve got the wind at our back,” she said. “I may not be a known politician, but my family has lived in this district for many years. More important, I’m putting in the time meeting voters. People are excited when they see me at the door and see a young woman is running.” Election Day is Nov. 4.

May Farms has been denied by Arapahoe County as host to September’s planned Riot Fest concert. The rock festival may move to Dick’s Sporting Goods Park in Commerce City.

Riot Fest denied permit by Arapahoe County Promoter saying the show will go on By Tom Barry Riot Fest will not be happening at May Farms in eastern Arapahoe County. Tammy King, the county’s zoning administrator, has ruled against the controversial rock festival, citing traffic and parking concerns. “Based upon the information I have received, I am compelled to conclude that approving the [application] will negatively impact surrounding property owners and uses,” she said. King noted that denial of the permit could be appealed to the county’s board of adjustment. At press time, Riot Fest had not filed any such paperwork. The proposed event had stirred strong feelings and emotions on both sides of the fence in Byers. More than 200 residents, concert supporters and opponents packed the American Legion hall on July 1 to voice their opinions. County commissioners traveled more than 40 miles to the eastern edge of the county to listen to the discussion about the threeday concert event that was also to include carnival rides, food and camping. Riot Fest was held at May Farms last year after receiving a special permit, but this year, Gary May, the farm’s proprietor, along with Riot Fest organizers from Chicago had to go through a more extensive process, including the
public hearing. May declined to comment. Riot Fest, which declined to answer emailed questions, continues to sell tickets for the event, ostensibly to be held at a location yet to be determined. Dick’s Sporting Goods Park in Commerce City has been mentioned unofficially as a possible location for the nowhomeless rock festival. Time is of the essence for a final deal as the three-day concert is scheduled Sept. 19-21. “Last year, Commerce City was approached informally by the concert promoters, but the area they wanted to use was in the 100year flood plain,” said Michelle Halstead, the city’s spokeswoman, noting that promoters never filed formal paperwork at that time. At press time, Riot Fest had not contacted the city, the county or Dick’s Sporting Goods Park, the home of the Colorado Rapids soccer team. The facility can accommodate up to 20,000 people and has previously provided limited camping facilities. The park is currently hosting the 2014 World Lacrosse Championships and has also hosted concerts by bands such as Phish and the Dave Matthews Band. The Mile High Music Festival has attracted as many as 20,000 people. The park’s website has the Color Fun Fest 5K run slotted for Saturday, Sept. 20, but can host multiple events.

Polling shows most Coloradans support ‘legal status’
By Peter Jones The South Metro Denver Chamber and District Attorney George Brauchler were among those who participated in last week’s Day of Action for Immigration Reform, a national call for long-awaited congressional movement on the contentious issue of fixing the nation’s immigration system. The press conference came one day before Republican leadership in the U.S. House of Representatives killed a bill co-sponsored by Rep. Mario Diaz-Balart, R-Fla., for comprehensive reform. On July 9, pro-business advocates, including the Colorado Farm Bureau and the Colorado Business Roundtable, hyped new poll results that show the state’s voters would largely support some sort of lawful status for illegal immigrants. Among likely voters, 32 percent surveyed by a Republican pollster said they favored granting such immigrants legal status without citizenship, while 34 percent supported legal status with eligibility for citizenship. Jeff Wasden, president of the Colorado Business Roundtable, said citizens – and especially businesses – across the political spectrum are finally on the same page. “While politicians may be in a stalemate, business leaders are more convinced now than ever that something needs to be done,” Wasden told reporters at the South Metro Chamber’s office in Centennial. “The importance of fixing this problem is real. Immigration reform is an economic imperative.” A minority, 29 percent of the poll’s respondents, favored total deportation. The polling was released just as President Obama requested $3.7 million of emergency funding to handle an influx of Central American children to
While politicians may be in a stalemate, business leaders are more convinced now than ever that something needs to be done [on immigration reform]. - Jeff Wasden, president of Colorado Business Roundtable the U.S. border. The message of new consensus on the issue is being driven nationally by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the Partnership for a New American Economy and the American Farm Bureau Federation, among others. The coalition launched last week’s call for congressional movement with a press conference in Washington, D.C. Similar events were held in more than 40 congressional districts across 20 states. At the event in Centennial, Wasden praised U.S. Rep Mike Coffman’s bill that would allow children of illegal immigrants to earn citizenship through military service, as an example of the kind of legislation needed at all levels of the problem. Coffman had opposed the more comprehensive House bill killed last week. Robert Golden, president of the South Metro Chamber, emphasized the importance of immigrant-run businesses and the need to connect the dots when it comes to U.S. visas and the need for workers. “Forty percent of the Fortune 500 companies that exist today were started either by an immigrant or a child of an immigrant,” he said. “… However, only 7 percent of the visas that are issued in the state are work-related. In other countries, it’s more in the area of 50 percent.” As many Republicans join the call for comprehensive reform, Wasden was quick to distinguish
the burgeoning coalition’s brand of reform from that associated with such hot-button terms as “amnesty” and “pathway to citizenship,” insisting his group’s ideas are more about pragmatism than official nationality. “I don’t believe the illegal immigrants who are here are asking or crying for citizenship,” the businessman said. “… They would like to have the opportunity to function, to work, to be a part of their family without the fear of being deported or separated from their family.” Wasden said congressional priorities should include enforcing the existing laws, securing the nation’s borders, expanding e-verification for workers and reforming the “broken” system for visiting workers. That last part is key, according to Nicholas Colglazier, director of public policy for the Colorado Farm Bureau, who said current policies have been disastrous for the state’s farmers, leading to lost crops and an inability for Colorado to compete with imported goods produced less expensively. “The bottom line is we are challenged to find qualified workers – or any workers for that matter – who are willing to work seasonally on our farms,” Colglazier said. District Attorney Brauchler said the matters are not helped when such potential workers are reluctant to even report violent crimes against them. “[Criminals] know that these people are not going to access the criminal-justice system out of fear that they are going to be deported,” the elected Republican said. “… We can’t have that. It creates a two-tiered system. … [We need to] come up with a system that is predictable, that is manageable, and one that permits people to come forward with some degree of security.” Harper Polling of Pennsylvania conducted its poll of 582 likely voters in Colorado last month. The margin of error was plus or minus 4 percent.

Ten years of healthy lands, healthy communities, healthy people County awards $12.5 million in open-space grants
Thanks to the citizens of Arapahoe County, the Board of Commissioners celebrated 10 years of the Open Space program June 27 by distributing $12.5 million in salestax revenues in a ceremony at 17 Mile House Farm Park. Grants and awards were distributed to cities, towns and special districts. “Collaboration is the centerpiece of the Arapahoe County Open Spaces Program,” Commissioner Nancy Sharpe said. “Strategic partnerships with local cities, towns and special districts, along with Arapahoe County voters who had the vision to support this program twice, has resulted in dozens of parks, trails and open-space amenities that residents are enjoying today and well into the future.” Funding is made possible by the voter-approved Open Space Sales and Use Tax, which is dedicated to preserving open space, enhancing parks, building trail connections and protecting heritage areas. In 2011, residents voted to continue the program that extends the quarter-of-a-penny sales and use tax to Dec. 31, 2023. Tax dollars have conserved more than 31,000 acres of open space, built more than 51 miles of new trails and created and enhanced 157 neighborhood and regional parks. More than $146 million has been invested to protect water quality, preserve urban and rural open space, protect wildlife corridors and preserve the rich agricultural heritage of Colorado’s “First County.”
Stewardship Award
Urban Drainage and Flood Control District was presented with the Our Progress Takes Flight award, which recognizes an individual, local government or organization for displaying outstanding leadership, cooperation and stewardship to ensure the conservation and protection of the great outdoors. Urban Drainage was acknowledged for being an invaluable partner throughout the history of the Open Space program. In 2006, the group was a primary partner on the Cherry Creek Stream Stabilization project at the 17 Mile House Farm Park. More recently, the organization played an integral role in the Cherry Creek Stream Stabilization project at the Cherry Creek Valley Ecological Park. At the time, the area was suffering from urbanization and an increase in storm-water runoff that took a toll on the natural creek sys-
tem, resulting in vegetation loss, stream erosion and damage to the park. In partnership with other agencies, Urban Drainage restored this stretch of the creek to a more stable system that also boasts enhanced educational and recreational amenities. Presently, the group is advancing the South Platte Working Group projects. With expertise and support, Phase 1 of the South Platte Enhancement project was completed last year. Phases 2 and 3 will result in significant channel improvements, stream-bank restoration and additional recreational amenities. Urban Drainage also is directing the River Run project from Oxford Avenue to Union Street, which is in its final design stages and will include 2,000 linear feet of river reshaping, reconstruction and enhancements.
Open Space Shareback Awards
Fifty percent of the Open Space tax revenue is returned to incorporated cities and towns to enhance local parks, trails, recreation and open space each year. Since 2004, more than $95 has been distributed to cities and town since the program’s inception. This year, Arapahoe County distributed more than $10.6 million in shareback funds. Some of the recipients included Aurora ($6.25 million), Centennial ($2.17 million), Cherry Hills Village ($129,570), Englweood ($654,749), Glendale ($90,168), Greenwood Village ($303,256), Littleton ($854,992) and Sheridan $137,666).
Open Space Grants
Twelve percent of the annual tax revenue is set aside for competitive grants to special districts and municipalities. Grant recipients generated an additional $3.8 million dollars in required matching funds.

Aug. 5. Colorado Parks and Wildlife offers big game licenses for elk, pronghorn, bear, deer and turkey, to residents and nonresidents, beginning at 9 a.m. (Mountain Daylight Time).

M
en, women and children, tourists and locals from all walks of life became window watchers when Cancer League of Colorado held its Over the Edge rappelling benefit last weekend. For a $1,000 donation, those endorsing the effort to support early stage, unduplicated cancer research and services got the thrill of a lifetime — climbing down a Broadway Plaza office building. In the background was Denver’s 16th Street Mall, a tourist mecca, raising the profile of this unique local nonprofit. Professionals gave those repelling training to help them descend safely back onto the street, many participants so filled with adrenalin at the finish they seemed euphoric. Some signed
up by groups, others were League members, united in this annual benefit with sunshine above and supporting onlookers below. This year the effort was part of a High Plains Elementary School student charity effort. Each year the students select three nonprofits to raise money for and their fundraising drive this year netted nearly $1,000 for the League. Dr. Katie Richardson chaired this year’s OTE and was at the information booth below the rappellers, helping give out information and cheering on each gutsy 32-story participant. The charity couldn’t pick a more popular way to raise its profile on a sunny Friday and Saturday. This year’s Over the Edge effort expected to raise about $300,000, having raised $250,000 last year at this time.
Among the frequent and notso-frequent society supporters were League president, Gary Reece and son, Jeff, Caroline, Charlie and Molly McVeigh, Deborah and Jules DeVigne, Paula Atkeson, Terri Fisher, Cosima Lux, and teams such as “Take the Plunge,” “Vertically Challenged,” “Rough Around the Edge,” “Dauntless,” “Team loVe,” “Skyscraper Rappellers,” and others with equally clever names. The young professionals group, “Basics,” was represented by rappeller R.J. Mastic who lost his grandfather last year to cancer. Cancer League has no offices and no paid staff and plans to net close to $1 million this year. Reach them at www.cancerleague.org. gloryweisberg@comcast.net Continued on page 10

Etiquette
In our first installment on children’s manners, we focused on the tiny tot and next we venture into the life of the preschooler. Food should not be used as a projectile. Try to teach the wanderer to use a spoon that’s safe for that age, easy to grasp and kind to their gums. What’s next is the 6- to 10-yearold. The elementary school age child should be able to safely use a knife when shown how to do so, as long as it’s the kind without a sharp point. Able to write means able to write a thank you note. We’re not expecting this age child to “wax poetic” about a gift or fun had at a birthday party but a simple thank you for (a) the gift and name the gift or (b) a fun time at a birthday party the child attended. Two sentences is a good start. I’m not in favor of hand shaking in general, but in our present society it’s still considered the way to greet people and if it’s not flu season a ge Avera of Loss s in e 3 inch utes! 30 min

child could learn to respond to or offer to shake an adult or child’s hand upon meeting them. Or a simple hello while making eye contact can suffice. With many of today’s homes dropping the land line and relying on only the smartphone owned by each adult or teen in one’s home there are fewer instances where a child answers the phone, but if it is a home phone used by family members a child should learn to answer it when it rings. A simple hello and response to a caller’s request to speak to another family member should be responded to if an adult asks the child to do so. In the school lunchroom much has changed in recent years since Emily Post was the source of table manners. The biggest change perhaps is what seems to be growing acknowledgement of food allergies. Teach your child not to offer items to another child who may have allergies. Some schools request children bringing lunch from home not bring items with peanuts in them but we all grew up on peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and some habits are hard to change. Talk with the teacher about what is now okay. At home your child can set the table for dinner. Learning to help with chores makes a child feel like a functioning member of the family and gives them pride in “mission accomplished.” Parents should exhibit and teach children good manners attending or playing sports. Refrain from yelling negative comments to a player or saying uncomplimentary things about a child’s performance. It’s appalling what we see now at some organized sports activities with parents yelling ear-splitting words to their child or coach. Children are sponges and they mimic adult behaviors.

Resort-style Amenities in a Brand New Community
4-H’ers learn from renowned horse whisperer By Molly Ramlet, 4-H Club Reporter Equine Specialist Anna Twinney presented a workshop on horse communication to the Bit of Class 4-H club the last week of June. The club hosted Twinney, an internationally-recognized “horse whisperer,” at Sue Sarasin’s barn in Greenwood Village. More than 20 members and guests attended the clinic. Twinney came at the invitation of club member Emily Connaugthon. “I am very interested in horse communication,” Connaugthon said. “I thought the topic would be good for one of our meetings. We were really lucky to have someone of Ms. Twinney’s stature give us a demonstration.” Twinney demonstrated both horse whispering and animal communication. She worked with four horses — Faith, Fashion, Moonlight and Cherokee — in a round pen, one horse at a time. Working without a lunge line or lead rope, she first demonstrated horse whispering, establishing non-verbal communication with a horse to gentle and
train it. Next, she talked to the club members about horse communication, which is the ability to telepathically connect with a being of another species, and literally communicate with them using images, feelings, thoughts, emotions, physical sensations,
and even mentally projected words. Bit Of Class is a registered Arapahoe County 4-H club that provides equine instruction and related activities to young people in this area, led since 1981 b Sue Sarasin.

Freedom to truly love MorningStar’s staff makes home a creative, life-enriching place
By Lynn Cahen, director of Community Relations, MorningStar Assisted Living & Memory Care at Jordan n the 11 months since MorningStar at Jordan first set down its Information Center on the north side of our construction site, we’ve been intent upon building more than a physical senior community. We’ve just as carefully, moment by moment, been building relationships with Centennial families, neighbors, businesses, and fellow senior living professionals—all in support of the calling we feel to serve seniors. “That, for my entire team, is what makes us tick: relationships,” says Cara O’Connor, Executive Director of MorningStar at Jordan, “For from the heart of our founder, Ken Jaeger, trickles down the freedom to truly love seniors— and, by extension, love those who care about seniors as we do.” Our calling began in 2003 when Ken resolved to create his own brand of senior living—one defined by the human touch. Out of his convictions, he established three precepts for MorningStar: Honor God; Value All Seniors; Invest generously in his team. Eleven years later, that labor of love continues—in Centennial. Says O’Connor, “We take seriously the responsibility of extending the MorningStar brand in this neighborhood, a brand of being ‘radically relational.’ It’s our goal every day to re-earn the trust of our beloved residents and their families.” “I have looked at multiple assisted living communities

Personal care at MorningStar is fully customized—as much or as little assistance as each person needs. The privilege of everyone at MorningStar, regardless of title, is to present life as it’s meant to be: a celebration of a shared journey. Our goal is to keep the body and mind independent and stronger longer. We work hard to bring in creative, lifeenriching programming to keep residents engaged and exploring new ideas. For there is always a reason to arise confident in the day and the promise it holds. To continue learning and contributing. To shine. Let’s celebrate the marvelous times in which we live.

CLC receives state’s top employer safety award I-25 Southbound Direct Lane to begin assessment period
Submitted by CDOT The Colorado Department of Transportation is looking at a variety of options to improve traffic flow and reduce congestion along the I-25 Corridor during peak travel times. CDOT will be implementing a pilot program on southbound I-25 from County Line and past Ridgegate that will create a dedicated “Direct Lane” for thru traffic to use. Crews restriped the left hand lane of southbound I-25 from County Line past Lincoln on the night of July 13 and the lane began being operational as a Direct Lane on July 14. The area will have dedicated striping and signage to help motorists to understand the procedures expected within the lane. This lane is not intended for use by those switching in and out of travel lanes. The assessment period for the Direct Lane will continue until the middle of August. Traffic flow, traffic patterns and whether or not this program saves time and increases traffic flow for motorists traveling through this area will be monitored. Signage will direct travelers to the lanes, should they choose to utilize them. These lanes are open for everyone to use. There is no HOV requirement and the lane will remain free of charge. Black signs with yellow lettering will be in place throughout the corridor to inform motorists of the Direct Lane. The lanes will be marked with double white lines to discourage motorists from weaving in and out of the Direct Lane. White signs with black lettering will reiterate that motorists should not cross the double white lines and encourage motorists to remain in the Direct Lane. Lanes similar to these have seen success in several other states as dedicated through lanes for traffic not looking to exit for several miles. This pilot program is being implemented in order to test this program along congested roadways in Colorado. The intent is to monitor congestion relief that is expected with traffic traveling more freely in the far left lane. This program will monitor the outcomes of the lane becoming a designated “Direct Lane” and if the program is successful, future lanes similar to this may be considered in other congested areas of the I-25 and other corridors. CDOT encourages those using this corridor to visit http://www. coloradodot.info/projects/i25sbdirectlane to learn more about this pilot program. We encourage drivers to take part in the survey that is on the project page and provide feedback on the Direct Lanes concept and how the lanes are working. To receive real-time updates about road conditions in your area, visit www.coloradodot.info and click on the green cellphone icon in the upper right hand corner of the page. Information about weekly lane closures will be available at www.coloradodot.info/travel/ scheduled-lane-closures.html.

Willow Creek’s Quarters for Kids program is a sweet, sticky success Their goal was $1,100, but the students at Willow Creek Elementary collected nearly twice that with their “Quarters for Kids” campaign during the month of April. The students actually raised $2,040, which will provide more than 8,000 meals for homeless families staying at the Volunteers of America’s Brandon Center. “I feel that it is important for our Willow Creek students to learn that even though they are young they are able to make a big difference in the lives of others,” said Carrie Hogan, “The Quarters for Kids program offered us the perfect opportunity to teach this to our students. Each quarter they raised during the month of April fed a homeless child living in the Volunteers of America Brandon Shelter in Denver. I couldn’t be more proud of our students.” Helping other children in need was a big motivator for the students, but so was earning the chance to throw whipped cream pies at their teachers and principal. So on April 30, part of the gym was covered in plastic, Principal Michael Chipman and four teachers donned old clothes, raincoats or trash bags, and 12 lucky students lined up and took aim. The entire school cheered and clapped as pie after pie hit the targets. By the end, Chipman and teachers Jodi Ash, Michelle Alden, Terri Hageman and Ken Long, were covered in whipped cream. But they say it was worth it! “One of Willow Creek’s foundational goals is reaching out to those in need in our community and around the world,” said Chipman. “The monies raised in the Quarters for Kids program will make a positive difference for Denver-area children and their families. Getting pied in the face was the least I could contribute to such a worthy cause. Willow Creek students and their families deserve all the credit. They are extremely thoughtful and caring.”

Sharon Nuanes of Golden captures Ms. Colorado Senior America crown By Scottie Taylor Iverson
Pageant theme is “Golden Moments” On its 20th Anniversary, Ms. Colorado Senior America awarded the 2014 title to Sharon Nuanes who is married to Richard and has two children and two grandchildren. She, as with most winners, is multi-talented, winning gold in Rocky Mountain Senior Games dance team competition and performing a “Symphony of Magic” for her talent at the pageant. She was Denver’s first female volunteer firefighter in 1974 and she met her husband while volunteering for the Jerry Lewis Telethon. Nuanes was with the Bureau of Reclamation as a hydraulic engineer for 38 years and worked for FEMA on nine declared national disasters winning numerous “On the Spot Awards,” a Distinguished Civilian Medal of Honor from the Corps of Engineers for work with FEMA after Hurricane Fran and another award after Hurricane Isabel. She worked for the
Bureau of Indian Affairs on Native American dams. The new queen is currently an instructor with the Civilian Emergency Response Team. She enjoys volunteering, swing dancing and performing, sewing costumes — from period pieces to movie themes — and belongs to several magician organizations. Her philosophy, “Life is a great journey and I have traveled it well. I learned right from wrong and to stand up for what is right no matter the cost. I’ll continue to say good words, think good thoughts and do good deeds. I hope you can see all the good there is in this world. Live life with passion, strength and honesty.” Claudette Erek was first runnerup and Diane McKnight Page was second runner-up. Other contestants were: Camella Landrum, Marta Leoni, Marilyn Litman, Karen Osburn, and Yvonne Zebauers. Competition is weighted in four categories: Individual interviews 30 percent, philosophy of life 20 percent, evening gown 20 percent and talent 30 percent. The distinguished panel of judges included Natalie Oliver-Atherton, Vicki Collins, Barbara Goldy, Norm Bouchard, Don M. Gorsuch and Mary Louis Lee. Every contestant who has been on the stage becomes a member of the Cameo Club, the original “Golden Girls” who
perform frequently at various venues including wellchoreographed numbers at the pageant. To be eligible to compete, a Ms. must be at least 60 years of age, and we are told, women of elegance in their 90s have competed at nationals. The Ms. Senior America Pageant is the world’s first and foremost pageant to emphasize and give honor to women who have reached the “age of elegance.” It is a search for a gracious lady who best exemplifies the dignity, maturity and inner beauty of all senior Americans. The Ms. Senior America pageant philosophy is based upon the belief that seniors are the foundation of America, our most valuable treasure. It is upon their knowledge, experience and resources that the younger generation has the opportunity to build a better society. The first Ms. Colorado Senior America Pat Witherspoon in 1993 took herself to the national competi-
tion. The national pageant has been in existence for over four decades and gained media prominence. In her farewell speech delivered with grace, humility and humor, her walk and performance, the 2013 Ms. Colorado Senior America Gail Hamilton who is an author, inspirational speaker, pianist and opera singer received several standing ovations. “I have learned and grown so much this past year,” she said. “I am queen, I am powerful, I am elegant, capable, amazing and connecting with love and joy with those around me. I am blind, but blindness

is not who I am. We must all climb mountains to achieve our dreams, but be aware of the mountains and celebrate the struggle. I have learned how to smile (it’s a blind thing), wave, turn and sing without warming up.” Gail sang “Nessum Dorma” to yet another standing ovation. She received the only standing ovation for talent at the national pageant and was 4th Runner Up. Since the local pageant, the unstoppable Gail whose motto is “Spread Your Wings to Fly” has finished the second draft of her book and taken up tap dancing.

Submitted by Arapahoe County Youth entrepreneurship was the focus of a thrilling business pitch competition hosted by Colorado State University Extension-Arapahoe County on May 13. The event was the culmination of a six-week program that taught valuable entrepreneurial skills to a group of nine students at the Buckley Air Force Base Youth Center in Aurora. The workshop was a collaborative effort that involved the CSU School of Business’s Institute of Entrepreneurship, CSU Extension-Arapahoe County’s Community Development Program, the Buckley Air Force Base Support Squadron and the Air Force Services Youth Program. Tim Aston, director of CSU Extension-Arapahoe County, Tom Cox, director of the Buckley Youth Center, and Charisse Bowen, director of the CSU Institute for Entrepre-
neurship, were the driving forces in bringing this program to the Buckley community. “This program delivered an outstanding mix of skills and experiences to a group of young adults who readily grasped the importance of the workshops,” Aston said. “Many kids these days would rather spend their spare time relaxing and playing video games than hone their very own business idea and learn the skills needed to pitch it. These students were engaged and enthusiastic all the way through, which showed us their remarkable drive and desire.” The two-hour workshops were held each Tuesday evening in April and early May at the Buckley Youth Center and were led by Nicholas Tart and Jessica Rawley from CSU’s Institute of Entrepreneurship. The business ideas and plans included a farm-to-table business, a duct-
tape wallet business and a drop-in center for developmentally challenged youths. Three winners were announced at the pitch competition and were given cash awards and valuable coaching/mentor contacts to further their businesses. Three young Buckley entrepreneurs also attended the Blue Ocean Challenge, a yearly pitch competition hosted by Blue Ocean Enterprises and the CSU School of Business’s Institute for Entrepreneurship on May 24. Dubbed the “richest pitch competition in Colorado,” this event allowed the entrepreneurs to present their business ideas at the Youth and Partner Showcase, and also meet other young entrepreneurs in a dynamic and fun environment. It was a great conclusion to the program. For more information about CSU Extension in Arapahoe County, visit www.arapahoeextension.org.

USAF Band to play at Someren Glen Retirement Community July 25 Concert is free and open to the public
T
he United States Air Force Academy Band accepted an invitation from a Someren Glen Retirement Community resident to play their first concert in Centennial on the community lawn, July 25, at 6:30 p.m. Alvin Vandenberg, a longtime Centennial area resident and former Martin Marietta engineer whose grandson is an Academy graduate, has long dreamed of hosting the band at his retirement community. Vandenberg initiated the process with USAF Band Director Randy Doersch, who was extremely supportive and excited about the band performing at the Someren Glen community, having never performed in Centennial. The ensemble performing is Stellar Brass, consisting of six players and the director, with bass and percussion instruments. The members of the band are full-time military service men and women and not Air Force Academy Cadets. At 86-years-young Vandenberg is leading a team in planning this patriotic community event.

HealthSouth Rehabilitation Hospital of Littleton
Submitted by South Metro Chamber of Commerce It is well-documented that patients who utilize inpatient rehabilitation hospitals after an injury, illness, or surgery show improved functional outcomes over those who do not. Rehabilitation provides the greatest potential for a person to return home and regain activity in the community. HealthSouth Rehabilitation Hospital of Littleton, an inpatient rehabilitation hospital that opened May 15, 2013, offers a full continuum of rehabilitative programs and services. These services are offered for individuals who have suffered a major accident or illness including trauma, stroke, head injury, spinal cord injury, amputation, arthritis, chronic pain, neuromuscular and pulmonary diseases. HealthSouth, a South Metro Denver Chamber member, is one of only two freestanding inpatient rehabilitation hospitals in the Denver metro area. “Our success depends on the quality of care provided to every patient,” said Dr. Jill Castro, Medical Director at HealthSouth Rehabilitation Hospital of Littleton. “Our group
is experienced and ready to help patients reach their goals and exceed their expectations to get back home sooner. Our expert teams of independent private practice physicians, Certified Rehabilitation Registered Nurses, therapists, case managers and hospital staff members area already working together to provide an exceptional patient experience and become the rehabilitative provider of choice Littleton and greater Denver. Patients in an acute rehabilitation hospital are offered a more intense approach to rehabilitation that benefits patients and families in less time. Patients receive: Daily Physician Visits: Patients are evaluated by a board-certified physiatrist (physicians who specialize in physical medicine and rehabilitation). Certified Rehabilitation RNs: HealthSouth patients have ’roundthe-clock supervision from certified rehabilitation registered nurses. Three hours of therapy at least 5 days/week: Therapy is provided by seasoned physical, occupational and speech therapists. Weekly team conferences:
Each patient’s physician, therapists, case manager and nurse meet weekly to consult on the patient’s progress. Prior to discharge from the hospital, a patient has the right to choose where they receive their rehabilitation. Be sure to discuss all of your discharge options with your case manager before choosing a hospital. HealthSouth also offers a Home Admission Program where patients can be assessed by a liaison and admitted directly from home. HealthSouth does not require a three-day acute hospital stay prior to admission. Common conditions accepted by our home admission program are Parkinson’s disease, history of a stroke, generalized weakness, cardiac surgery, neurological disorders, rheumatoid disease, and back, pelvis or lower extremity fractures.

Baceline Investments closes on $5.57 million Nashville Property Submitted by the South Metro Chamber of Commerce Denver-based Baceline Investments, LLC, a South Metro Denver Chamber member, announced in April that it acquired the Shoppes at Edge-O-Lake in Nashville, Tenn., the second property in the company’s Debt Free Income Fund IV. Baceline Investments is a boutique private equity real estate investment and management company with retail holdings throughout the central United States. The acquisition was made for $5,570,000 at a 9.7 percent cap rate. This is Baceline’s first property acquisition in Tennessee. The Shoppes at Edge-O-Lake, constructed in 2007 and located at 2510 Murfreesboro Road, is a 35,544-square-foot multi-tenant neighborhood shopping center property in the southeastern area of
Nashville. It is located on a major thoroughfare that connects the airport to downtown and is currently 93 percent occupied with a mix of local and national tenants. “We carefully and strategically chose the Edge-O-Lake property for a number of reasons,” said David Puchi, principal of Baceline Investments. “We are focused on America’s Heartland, on investing in cash flowing retail properties in diverse metropolitan areas. Tennessee is a new target market for us, and Nashville especially is an exciting city with lots of growth and potential. The Edge-O-Lake property is particularly appealing because of its proximity to downtown and because it has the best visibility of any neighborhood shopping center in the trade area.” Founded in 2003, Baceline Investments, LLC is a Denver-based
privately held boutique real estate investment company that specializes in the acquisition, management, and sale of necessity-based shopping centers in select secondary markets across America’s Heartland. This unique geographic focus allows investors to better diversify their investment portfolio while avoiding exposure to overly competitive larger markets and the more cyclical coastal regions. Baceline currently serves the real estate needs of nearly 600 individual, family, and institutional clients through both its income and growth-oriented investment opportunities.

Polo, Colorado Style By Cathleen Norman n the high country amidst lush meadows the polo season begins. Mid May into September whirls with practices, meets, matches tournaments − and parties. The brisk swoosh and plummeting swoop then, crack of mallet on ball. Poetry in motion, especially against the greenery of a late, wet Rocky Mountain spring.... Traditions abound... Polo’s ancient origins date to Persia in the sixth century B.C. The sport was introduced to England from India where military officers had played local teams. The British are credited with spreading polo worldwide in the late 19th century and the early 20th century. The first U.S. polo match was played in 1876 in New York City. The horse-y sport swiftly spread west where other forms of equestrian entertainment, like rodeos and Wild West shows, were taking hold. The U.S. Polo Association organized in 1890. The first polo match in the Pikes Peak region was played in the 1890s at Cheyenne Mountain Country Club at the city’s south edge, which was also one of the earliest polo clubs in the West. A handful of people can be credited for bringing the Sport of Kings to Colorado. Brothers Walter and Horace Devereux profited mightily in silver mining near Glenwood Springs, then turned their hand to hospitality where their passion for polo ensured that their grand Hotel Colorado included adjacent polo fields. Mining capitalist Spencer Penrose likewise installed polo fields near his world famous Broadmoor Hotel, added barns and raised a few ponies. Lawrence C. Phipps molded the Denver Polo Club by helping acquire 160 acres near the Denver Country Club as polo fields and site of an inviting clubhouse. Three sites stand out in the Colorado polo story – Denver, Colorado Springs and Glenwood Springs. Denver Country Club, founded in 1887 and one the oldest private clubs in the country, was centered first around horse racing, then expanded into polo, golf and tennis. Pampered sons of Denver’s founding class grew up at the adjunct Denver Polo Club and became stellar polo athletes. When polo declined in the 1940s, the Denver Polo Club playing fields were developed into spacious dwellings as the Polo Club district. Colorado Springs and the Broadmoor blossomed into a premier polo center, cultivated by millionaire hotelier Spencer Penrose, whose affection for the sport stemmed from his Philadelphia roots. Passion for equestrian pursuits was heightened by the wealthy British and affluent Easterners who flocked to Colorado Springs and brought their taste for equestrian past times such as trail rides, jumping and fox hunting. The city’s founder Gen. William Jackson Palmer was also a horseman, and honored by a downtown bronze statue of him astride his steed. An early Colorado Springs polo eventwasatournamentduringthe1906 Zebulon Pike Centennial Celebration. Four teams participated - Cheyenne Mountain Country Club, Denver Country Club, Sheridan (Wyoming) Polo Ranch, and United States 10th Cavalry. The sport was spurred further in 1912 when the Army Polo Association became part of USPA. By 1914, there were 17 Army stations playing sanctioned polo, many

In Glenwood Springs, polo was vigorously spearheaded by the Devereux family, silver tycoons who rode and played passionately. Their grand and gracious Hotel Colorado hosted the first polo tournament in in 1893 – the Devereux Cup during the hotel’s opening celebration. Walter Devereux and his partner, Hervey Lyle, championship polo players, brought the sport to the Grand Valley.
They formed the Glenwood Polo and Racing Association and built hotel polo field. The Glenwood team won the world polo championships in 1903, 1904 and 1912. The galloping game has changed little over the centuries. Opposing teams of four riders on horseback move the ball down field with their long-necked mallets toward the opponent’s goal. Two referees on horseback patrol the field, while a third ob-

serves from the ground. Less rough than rodeo, the gentlemanly sport even specifies “no dangerous riding” in its official rulebook. Ideally, each polo rider has six ponies, changing to a fresh horse for each seven-minute “chukker;” a match is made up of four to six chukkers. Many polo ponies are former racehorses. The small horses stand less than 14.1 hands high but must sturdily gallop long thirty-something
miles per hour carrying a rider wielding a long-handled mallet. To field a team properly requires at least 24 trained ponies, costing $15,000 to $60,000 apiece. Polo’s popularity took off during the roaring twenties. In 1922, the National Polo Pony counted 63,000 ponies. Celebrities enjoyed and promoted the sport, among them Oklahoma humorist Will Rogers, film stars Spencer Tracy and Leslie Howard and imaginative Walt Disney. The USPA listed 65 clubs and 2,500 players by 1935. The Broadmoor became a major polo center with stables for more than 400 horses. Quite a few guests brought their own ponies, especially those visiting from the oil-rich regions of Oklahoma. Spencer Penrose installed four (900’ x 1800’) polo fields for wealthy sportsmen who sought the cool summers in the Colorado Rockies. He groomed a Broadmoor Polo team and sent it East for national competitions. Accentuating dashing image, innkeeper Penrose pulled on his jodhpurs and donned his Stetson to ride horseback, making his daily rounds to oversee the Broadmoor and surrounding grounds. Local millionaires and tycoons enthusiastically embraced the sport, organizing the Broadmoor Polo Association and applauding when the Penrose Polo Park with grandstand opened at Elm Avenue and Polo Avenue. The 1920s saw outdoor sports in Colorado blossoming, popularized by vacationing movie stars and aided by the efforts of the Colorado Mountain Club. Tourists took pleasure in trail rides, picnics, pack trips and backcountry hunting and jodhpurs became the stylish choice for the trail. Polo declined in the thirties due to the Depression and sunk further during World War II as horse stock was depleted by the war. The Broadmoor polo auditorium was converted into an indoor ice arena for figure skating. Not until the 1960s did polo see a revival. Polo clubs active in Colorado today include Aspen Valley Polo Club, Boulder Polo Club, Colorado Springs Polo Club and Colorado State University Polo Club; also Columbine Polo & Equestrian Center (Littleton), R & L Farms Polo Club (Elizabeth), Red Rock Rangers Polo Club (Larkspur), Roaring Fork Polo Club (New Castle) and Rose Spur Polo Club (Snowmass). The Roaring Fork Polo Club west of Glenwood Springs hosts the Devereux Cup. Named for the founder of the historic Hotel Colorado, the end-of-August event attracts more than 1,000 spectators for the roundrobin matches. The weekend festivities include a meet-the-players party and auction that benefits a local children’s charity. The Denver Polo Club operates fields and barns 30 miles south of Denver beside Plum Creek. Erica Gandcomcar, whose family runs the Denver Polo club, is one of the top female players in the nation. The annual Denver Polo Classic combines world-class polo with the nation’s largest charitable polo tournament. The three days of entertainment, sport, and culinary delights held at majestic Polo Reserve in Littleton against the spectacular backdrop of the Rocky Mountains with Schomp BMW as the major sponsor.
