with JOHN COLSON

WAS THAT THE SOUND OF THE FUN RUNNING AWAY? NAH, COULDN’T BE DID YOU HEAR that? Was that a sound I detected, or something else entirely? It may have been the thunderous silence of an auditorium filled with one-handed theater patrons applauding, individually but mightily. Or perhaps it was just a high-pitched whine emanating from the throats of nearly 7 billion Earthlings wondering where the fun went, and just when it was that life got so difficult. I’d vote for the latter, because the strain of explaining an auditorium full of one-handed theater lovers clapping merrily away might be more than I could bear. Not that coming up with an answer for those benighted 7 billion souls would be any easier. But at least I’d be working with accepted population statistics, as opposed to what most likely is a massive case of inherited insanity, which might well be contagious and almost certainly would be depressing. So, to the point at hand — where did all that good old fun go? Do we have an answer yet? Well, some would say it didn’t go anywhere, in a geospatial, galactic locational sense. It’s still right here where it’s always been. It’s just a little harder to find than it once was. So, if you can, say, grab a tennis racket and find a public court that hasn’t totally been taken over by cracks and weeds, along with an opponent and a ball boy (or girl, in these equal-opportunity times), the fun could all be right there at your hands and feet. Or if you could find a coastal area where the oil-soaked sands are at just the right state of flammability, you could drop a lighted match to the ground and have one hell of a bonfire, around which you and your friends could dance and drink and forget any troubles you might have. Or you could go bowling, or have a paintball skirmish or take a really long, solitary walk in the woods (if you can find any without a concession stand, gas rig or some other evidence of humankind’s handiwork.) That’s if you live in the U.S., of course, or some other moderately developed nation. Elsewhere, the problem is that most of those

7 billion souls don’t have the time to really look for it. The fun, that is. This is because their time is much too steadily consumed with such things as trying to stay alive in a world where, for some reason, they’re instructed on a daily basis by advertising executives and sales clerks that they ought to be wealthy, white and winsome and then they’d really have some fun. Naturally, those who are poor, nonwhite and anything but winsome have had some difficulty with the aforementioned notion, in spite of, or perhaps because of its unceasingly being so loudly broadcast their way. And now that you mention it, the noise from all those ads, be they broadcast or bullhorned or conveyed by some more subtle medium, must be part of the sound that was noted at the opening of this piece. Anyway, most of those 7 billion souls are just too busy to be bothered looking for The Fun (let’s capitalize it, shall we?), and typically get a little huffy when The Fun is even mentioned. It must be said, however, that in their hearts of hearts all of those un-funning multitudes wish that they could find The Fun, grab it by the throat, drag it off to a lusty carefree existence somewhere in space and somewhere in time, and have a go at it. Perhaps later we can discuss the nature of time, space and that brightly-shining but elusive carefree existence. For now, though, we have another fish to fry. Which is to identify that low-level noise we heard at the outset of this moment of reflection and wonder. More of a rumble, really, than a whine. And it seems to be undergoing some kind of unsteady doppler effect, almost as if it were just a bit tipsy and can’t decide whether it’s coming or going. Well, as I have no particularly pressing engagements today, I’ll just wander up to that next bend in the road at the crest off that hill, take a peek around and see what’s up. If we’re both unexpectedly lucky, I’ll tell you what I found when next we chat — if we ever do.

WRITTEN WORD THOSE IN THE audience at the Wheeler Opera House one memorable night last November were privileged to get a preview of the latest wit out of the twisted mind of David Sedaris. Now fans can get the full view of Sedaris’ latest adventures — the trip to a Parisian dentist, the colonoscopy — and his musings on health care and the life of a traveling author. Sedaris’ “Let’s Explore Diabetes with Owls” was published in April, and while I can always recommend reading Sedaris, for this, I would recommend even more letting Sedaris read to you — the audiobook is in the writer’s own distinctive voice, which can be as funny as his observations on life. While you’re at it, go back and get all of Sedaris’ catalog, as fine a collection of humor as America has produced. Humorist David Sedaris has released his latest essay collection, “Let’s Explore Diabetes with Owls.”

FILM

David Beck’s daddy was a bassist with countryrocker Robert Earl Keen. Paul Cauthen’s grandpop devoted himself to making music for the Church of Christ. Put the two together, with their opposing musical heritages, and what you get is SONS OF FATHERS, a group whose rock has deep Texas roots. On their latest album, “Burning Days,” Beck and Cauthen mix steel guitar licks, tight vocal harmonies, an adventurous rock ‘n’ roll spirit and even a bit of Simon & Garfunkeltype pop sensibility. It is a near-perfect balance of old ideas and innovation. The duo has played several Belly Up gigs and return Monday, May 27 to see about further building their local following.

Gael García Bernal stars in the Chilean film “No,” showing Thursday through Saturday, May 23-25, at the Wheeler Opera House.

GAEL GARCÍA BERNAL has underperformed in recent years, costarring opposite the likes of Kate Hudson and Will Ferrell. But the 34-yearold Mexican actor, who lit up a series of excellent films from “Amores Perros” to “The Motorcycle Diaries,” isn’t likely to be on the downslope of his career just yet, and his latest looks promising. “No,” by Chilean director Pablo Lerraín, stars Bernal as an advertising executive enlisted to lead a campaign to rid Chile of the dictator Augusto Pinochet. The film, which has a satirical edge, skewering both politics and the media, was nominated for the Oscar for best foreign film. It shows Thursday through Saturday, May 23-25, at the Wheeler Opera House.

LEGENDS & LEGACIES

FROM the VAULT

by TIM WILLOUGHBY

Air compressors revolutionized mining in the 1890s.

COMPRESSION, PLEASE miners needed air — air to breath and air to operate their drilling

equipment. In the beginning, makeshift solutions sufficed, but as the scale of a mine grew, so did the solutions.

THE FARTHER a tunnel extends beyond its entrance, the more air quality decreases. When blasting powder is used, fumes linger and cause headaches and even death. Old, stale, uncirculated air mixed with the odors of rotting mine timbers and active men makes working conditions intolerable. Humidity and heat build in uncirculated air, taxing miners’ stamina, and drilling dust hangs heavy, filling miners’ lungs. The best, but not always economical, solution was to create a draft through dead air pockets. Shafts connected different levels of tunnels and horizontal matrices of air passages enhanced air movement. The value of air circulation induced some competing companies to link their mines. A well-designed system could circulate air throughout most of a mine’s working area. In the 1950s, the Montezuma mine was reopened for exploration. By digging through a surface ice block, air circulation

A S P E N T I M E S W E E K LY

was restored to all of the previous workings. In the 1930s the Midnight Mine created circulation by connecting its new, 2-mile tunnel

and connected by pipes to the farthest reaches of the workings. The longer passageways increased demand on the powerful fans; that

AT THE CLOSE OF THE 19TH CENTURY, MINE OPERATORS EMBRACED A NEW TECHNOLOGY FOR ROCK DRILLING; THEY REPLACED SHEER BRUTE FORCE WITH ROCK HAMMERS THAT WERE POWERED BY COMPRESSED AIR. THAT COMPRESSED AIR SERVED A DUAL PURPOSE — RUNNING THE DRILLS AND DRIVING CIRCULATION. (that lacked circulation) to the old workings of the Little Annie. Through this underground route, Queens Gulch air intermingled with Little Annie Basin air. The Little Annie connection did not completely address the problem; other new tunnels, shafts and stopes still lacked circulation. Enormous fans were installed at mine entrances

Ma y 23- 29 , 2013

greater the demand required wider piping. At the close of the 19th century, mine operators embraced a new technology for rock drilling; they replaced sheer brute force with rock hammers that were powered by compressed air. That compressed air served a dual purpose — running the drills and driving circulation.

The early, steam-powered air compressors required vast amounts of energy, precluding their use by smaller mines. Two rock drills running 24 hours could consume five cords of wood. The unsustainability of that requirement drove many mines, especially in Aspen, to convert from steam to electrical power, vastly reducing the cost. Although lubrication odors tainted compressed air, it could be delivered long distances without much drop in pressure. The rock drills produced more dust than did traditional mining by hand, but opening up the compressed air valves for a while was enough to clear the air at the end of a tunnel. With each new patent, air compressors improved, shrinking in size and becoming more portable. The air compressors that power today’s street jackhammers closely resemble those used in yesterday’s mines — even their manufacture is the same. In the 1890s, the Rand Drill Co. competed with the IngersollSergeant Drill Co., each of New York with branches in Denver. They merged into Ingersoll-Rand and still dominate the market. Mining was basically a transportation business. In addition to moving ore to the earth’s surface and on to a processing facility, air movement presented a major expense — but second to that of removing water. Tim Willoughby’s family story parallels Aspen’s. He began sharing folklore while teaching for Aspen Country Day School and Colorado Mountain College. Now a tourist in his native town, he views it with historical perspective. Reach him at redmtn@schat.net.

AN ARTICLE IN THE May 30, 1902, edition of the Aspen Daily Times celebrated the graduating class of 1902, which consisted of 14 young ladies. According to the paper, “The Wheeler Opera house was crowded last evening with Aspenites loyal to education and the city schools. The opera house was elaborately decorated for the occasion. There was enacted the closing scene in school life for fourteen of the brightest and sweetest girls ever graduated from our High School. There also was enacted the ‘commencement’ of new life, the beginning of that broader and nobler career for which they have worked so hard and so long. In the culmination of their highest hopes and aspirations last evening, the large audience saw them happy, their bright faces animated with feelings of pleasure and just pride in what they had accomplished.”

WINEINK

WORDS to DRINK BY

ROLANDO HERRERA’S DREAM POURED IN ASPEN SITTING DOWN at the bar of the recently opened, sleekly appointed, and already crowded White House Tavern in Aspen last week, my first thought was (as it most always is), “what am I going to drink?” A quick glance at the wine list revealed that The White House offered the 2009 Mi Sueño Winery El Llano Napa Valley Red by the glass. Question answered, problem solved. My first experience with Mi Sueño (“my dream” in Spanish) came in February at KELLY J. Premiere Napa. This HAYES wine tasting and auction at the Culinary Institute of America plays host to more than 100 of the finest wineries in the Napa Valley, all of whom are pouring wines from barrels made specifically for the auction. It is an incredible event allowing participants to taste an astounding selection of wines and meet a great many winemakers in a short period of time. After tasting perhaps 75 wines, I stopped next to the last barrel in the room where I was greeted by Rolando Herrera. “Would you like to taste Mi Sueño?” he asked. I did. And even though my palate was already purple after tasting a score of great wines, this one stood out. Rich, ripe, and balanced (the wine, not me), I made a mental note of it as I floated out of the CIA into the Napa sunshine. That note came back to me when The White House Tavern bartender said, as she filled my glass, “Mi Sueño is one of our owner’s favorite wines.” She also said that the Hillstone Restaurant Group, which owns The White House and close to 50 other restaurants across the nation, buys much of Rolando Herrera’s Mi Sueño production. “We are very fortunate to have a good relationship, both personal and professional with George (Hillstone founder and food industry innovator George Biel),” Rolando told me during a telephone interview when I recounted the story. “We try and provide wine for as many of their restaurants as we can. George loves the wines.” Rolando Herrera’s story reads like a storybook version of the American dream. Raised in Michoacan,

A S P E N T I M E S W E E K LY

Ma y 23- 29 , 2013

Mexico, his wine journey began in his early teens when he came to Napa and began working in the inns (Auberge de Soleil) and restaurants (Mustards Grill) of the booming Valley. As a teenager he developed an appreciation for vineyards, wines and the hospitality they provide. In 1985 Warren Winiarski, then winemaker and owner at the fabled Stag’s Leap Winery, gave him a job. Not making wine mind you, but building a stone wall. Admiring his determination, dedication and blooming palate, Winiarski took Rolando him under his broad wing, mentoring the 19-year-old and teaching him the fundamentals of wine. A decade at Stag’s Leap included seven years as cellar master, the ultimate in a hands-on wine education. This was followed by stints in “graduate school” as it were, working

as an assistant winemaker at Chateau Potelle for Jean-Noel Fourmeaux and then as a winemaker for celebrated wine consultant Paul Hobbs on some of the most famed names in Napa Cabernet. Eventually he took over as winemaker for Napa’s Vine Cliff Winery. “I have been very fortunate to be with both Warren and Paul,” he said with obvious appreciation. “And at Chateau Potelle, that’s where I really learned about how the French look at wine. How to make wines that represent the terroir and the varietals.” In the late ’90s he began his quest to make his own wines and control the process from vine to bottle. “Vineyard managers and winemakers don’t always see eye to eye,” Rolando

chuckled, “I wanted to control all aspects so I began to find vineyards to lease that I could oversee, and in some cases even plant.” Today, under his Mi Sueño label, Rolando produces approximately 5,000 cases of the El Llano Red (named for his ancestral home in Michoacan) along with pinot noir and chardonnay from Sonoma’s Russian River Valley, a syrah from Napa and assorted smaller lots. Through his company, Herrera Vineyards Management, he also makes wines for a select few private clients from plots throughout Napa and Sonoma and even as far away as Washington. On the day we spoke, he was on his way to Walla Walla to visit a client’s vineyard. “They send

me grapes to my winery (located in an industrial section of downtown Napa) but I feel like I can’t just make the wine without seeing the vineyard, walking the land, feeling the dirt.” Rolando is currently smitten with the dirt of Coombsville, a newly designated American Viticultural Area (AVA) in the southeastern quadrant of the Valley. “That’s where I discovered my little Bordeaux in the Napa Valley,” he said with a hint of secrecy. “It’s just a little cooler and I can leave grapes hanging one, two even three weeks longer there.” It is a sweet spot and we can expect to taste more form Coombsville in future Mi Sueño releases. As a recent past-president of the Napa Sonoma Mexican American Vintners Association (NSMAVA), Rolando sees great opportunities for Mexican-American winemakers. “There are so many young winemakers coming up and the opportunity is there,” he says, without noting that he was one of those who paved the way. “The future is very bright.” Drink the dream. Kelly J. Hayes lives in the soonto-be-designated appellation of Old Snowmass with his wife, Linda, and a black Lab named Vino. He can be reached at malibukj@aol.com.

ROLANDO’S PICKS I asked Rolando to recommend some wines that are made by Mexican-American winemakers in the Napa Valley. He chose these three, all by up-and-coming professionals.

VOLCAN CELLARS Owner/Winemaker: Rogelio Morales With 200 cases a year, the style is a mix between Napa wines and European wines. Petit Verdot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec and Cabernet Franc. Volcan wine is similar to Spring Mountain wines, as Rogelio Morales has worked there for more than 25 years as cellar master.

DELGADILLO CELLARS Owner/Winemaker: Ignacio Delgadillo Sr. A very small production, they age their wine between two and three years before releasing it to the public. Nice big wines, structured, great fruit and nicely balanced. The style of winemaking hints of European influences.

VOCES WINES Owner/Winemaker: Fernando Candelario Very classic California wines; varieties used are Petite Sirah and Cabernet Sauvignon. Rich, full-bodied, concentrated and well balanced. Voces’ wines are very fruit-forward and ready to drink early. Great winemaking style.

Rolando Herrera’s story reads like the American dream, moving from Mexico to the Napa Valley as child, and then becoming a winemaker with his own label as an adult. A S P E N T I M E S . C O M / W E E K LY

FOOD MATTERS

SUMMER SWEETS EASY WAYS TO JAZZ UP THE CLASSIC CAMPFIRE S’MORE THREE SIMPLE INGREDIENTS — a marshmallow, a piece of chocolate and two graham crackers. The symbol of summer and campfire snacking. And there are so many possibilities for jazzing it up. Once you have a toasted marshmallow, you can sandwich it between all kinds of cookies, crackers and the like. Or you could swap out the basic chocolate for something a little more over-the-top, perhaps something with bacon or candied ginger embedded in it. And don’t overlook gourmet marshmallows, which come in some wonderful flavors. And don’t hesitate to jam other ingredients in there, too. Liven up your s’mores with: • Thin pretzel sticks • Dried fruit (such as dried cherries and pineapple) • Sweetened shredded coconut • Thinly sliced fresh strawberries or apple • Maraschino cherries • Slices of banana • Thinly sliced brownie or cake (as an additional filling, not in place of the graham crackers) • Potato chips Below are four more ideas to get your creativity flowing. EDITOR’S NOTE: Alison Ladman is a recipe developer for the AP. Follow her on Twitter at https://twitter.com/ CrustAndCrumbCo. Amiee White Beazley’s column will return next week. Marshmallows, chocolate, graham crackers and a few other treats are all that you need to maked toasted mocha s’mores, salted oatmeal s’mores, sesame caramel s’mores, and double chocolate grasshopper s’mores.

GUNNER’S LIBATIONS

NEED TO KNOW Start to finish: 5 minutes Servings: 1 2 1/2 ounces pisco 1 1/2 ounces lime juice 1 1/2 ounces simple syrup 1 1/2 tablespoons egg white 1/2 cup ice Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend until very smooth and frothy. Pour into a large, heavy glass and serve immediately.

PISCO SOUR THIS WINTER, THE folks over at of The Ski Shop-Ajax, at the base of Aspen Mountain, were known to whip up a cocktail now and again. One specialty was the Pisco Sour — a sweet, icy concoction that seemed perfect for summer sipping (thought it drank just fine in winter, too). Lo and behold, Associates Press writer J.M. Hirsch just named the Pisco Sour his “drink of the summer.” Says Hirsch: “Pisco is a South American brandy that has a clean, mildly sweet flavor. Traditional versions of this cocktail call for shaking it over ice with sugar and lemon juice. My take swaps in lime juice (which so loves barbecue) and rather than shaking it, I blend until frothy. Think frozen margarita, but so much better.” Agreed! Gunilla Asher is taking a break from the bar scene, so we’re turning this page over to you.

AN UNLIKELY EXPLOSION: BOMBINO SET TO GO OFF AT BELLY UP

NEED TO KNOW Bombino, with last good tooth

OMARA MOCTAR didn’t exactly come out of nowhere. But the 33-year-old guitarist and singer is a member of the Tuareg, a tribe that continues to lead a nomadic and often persecuted existence in Northern Africa — not exactly part of the pipeline for success in the Western music industry. But the Tuareg have a strong music culture. The Festival in the Desert, one of Africa’s most celebrated music events, centers around Tuareg performers, and other Tuareg acts — including the band Tinariwen, which played at the Wheeler Opera House in 2007 — have made their names internationally. So perhaps it’s only unlikely, and not beyond belief, that

second album. “Nomad” was recorded in Nashville with Dan Auerbach, of the Black Keys, producing, and it debuted on top of the world-music charts. Bombino is on a tour that features a stop at the Bonnaroo festival, a string of dates opening for Gogol Bordello and a headlining show this week at Belly Up. Between shows, he answered some questions via email.

African guitarist Bombino will make his Aspen debut May 29 at Belly Up.

Moctar, as a teenager, found a guitar left behind by a relative and, while living in Libya, began watching videos of rock-guitar legends. His version of “Hey Negrita” was included on a 2006 Rolling Stones tribute album, and in 2009, Moctar was featured in a documentary film about the Tuareg. In 2010, the Tuareg settled their differences with the government of Niger and Moctar, taking the name Bombino, focused on his music. He performed at a concert for peace at the base of the Grand Mosque in the city of Agadez and released the album “Agadez.” Bombino has taken another major leap in prominence with his

ASPEN TIMES: Why did the government of Niger make the guitar illegal? What effect did this have on you? BOMBINO: The guitar was dangerous to the government in Niger during the Tuareg rebellion because it was a way of bringing people together. Whenever you play guitar in Niger, people come. It assembles people. Then also the songs began protesting the situation, so the music became political even further. So the government became scared of the guitar and started to treat it like a weapon of resistance.

May 29 at 8 p.m. Belly Up

AT: You grew up in the Tuareg nomadic tribe and listened as a teenager to American and British rock guitarists, including Jimi Hendrix and Mark Knopfler. What did that music sound like to you? B: To me their music sounded like freedom. I was inspired by not just their playing but their attitude, the energy of their performance and of the audience, the freedom and the joy that their music created for them and their public. For me, in exile as a young teenager, this looked like paradise. I was immediately drawn to this music and the guitar as a path to freedom. AT: Northern Africa has a reasonably rich history of excellent guitarists, including Habib Koité, Afel Bocoum, Tinariwen and Vieux Farka Touré and Ali Farke Touré. How much of this tradition goes into your playing, and how does it fit in with your Western rock influences? B: I think it goes in evenly into my playing with the rock influences that I have absorbed over the years. You cannot define precisely, “My style is 30 percent African, 30 percent American, 30 percent Tuareg,” or anything like that. But I think the great African guitarists like Ali, Afel, Tinariwen’s Ibrahim, all of them have inspired my playing to the same degree as Jimi or Mark Knopfler. AT: You have lived in exile, seen the Tuareg fight wars for their human rights and had members of your band killed. Does all this add importance and vitality to your music? You have also argued with your father, who objected to your becoming a musician. What does he think of your music now? B: Well, for me, my history and my experiences up to this point in my life make what I am doing very important and very special. Just a few years ago I could not imagine having a life like I have now with peace and a family and a home and a career playing my music. I am

truly blessed by God, but my life has not always felt so blessed, and I know that there are no guarantees, so things can get bad again. So I am savoring this time in my life. My father is now very proud, yes. He can see that what I am doing is important not just for me and my family but for the Tuareg people and for Niger. AT: You were raised Muslim. Do you find any conflict in the Muslim religion and being a musician who tours in the Western world? B: No, I have not had any problem. Sometimes people will give us suspicious looks and that kind of thing, but I can understand that. We have gone to some places that I am not sure a Tuareg has ever been. We have been in Siberia, in India, in Korea, in Japan, all across Europe and North America. So we have seen some strange things, and I am sure we appear strange to many of the people we have seen. But there has never been any problems, so far, fortunately. AT: How did you meet Dan Auerbach, of the Black Keys? B: I met him only in his studio when we began to record the album “Nomad.” He discovered my music through a friend, and he watched some videos of me playing on YouTube. Then he contacted my manager and proposed that we come to Nashville to record our new album with him. My manager played me his music and explained to me who he was, that it could be a great relationship and that he is a great producer. So I said, “OK, no problem,” and a few months later we were in Nashville working with him. What a big experience for us! AT: How does a nomad become an electric guitarist? That can’t be easy. B: Well, nothing that is valuable in life is easy. For me it was not easy to get to where we are today, but to love the guitar and love the music, that is very easy for me.

THE FUTURE OF FUNKY THREE ROARING FORK VALLEY SCHOOLS SET THEIR SIGHTS ON BLENDING THE PAST WITH PROGRESS by BOB WARD

“funky” is part of the mountain-town aesthetic, from mining-era buildings to pot-bellied stoves to our favorite old pairs of skis. After too many years, however, funky simply fails the test. Three independent schools in the Roaring Fork Valley have recently come to this conclusion regarding their longstanding buildings, and they’re now in the midst of ambitious capital campaigns to upgrade their facilities for the 21st century.

TO P P H OTO B Y DA N BAY E R ; B OT TO M P H OTO C O U RT E S Y O F A C D S

ASPEN COMMUNITY School, Aspen Country Day School and Colorado Rocky Mountain School in Carbondale are all respected, progressive educational institutions that were started by visionary founders and parents who wanted a small-school alternative to the standard public-school model. Aspen Community School began as a private, independent institution and is now a public charter school within the Aspen School District. Country Day and CRMS, as the other schools are known, both remain private, independent schools. It’s odd that all three organizations find themselves pushing simultaneously for multi-million dollar upgrades, but administrators say there’s no broad economic or educational reason that led them all to turn to donors at the same time. It’s not that 21st-century students require

more classroom space, and it’s not that Roaring Fork Valley schools are in a pedagogical “arms race” for the sexiest science labs or playgrounds. It’s simply that the funk had lost its spunk. “Our facilities have been failing,” said Skye Skinner, executive director of COMPASS, the Woody Creek nonprofit that runs the Aspen Community School. “We’ve been basically doing triage on this building for years.” Jeff Leahy, head of school at CRMS, couldn’t help gushing about the new state-of-the-art music building where instructor George Weber can teach, rehearse and even record music with his students. “It’s not a large facility,” Leahy said, “but compare it to the old rectangular space that we’d carved out of the corner of an 1896 barn … it’s designed for the purpose it’s serving.” Similarly, Carolyn Hines, director A S P E N T I M E S . C O M / W E E K LY

of advancement and communications at Aspen Country Day, said the success to date of the school’s fundraising is “a testimony to the strength of the program and the loyalty of our families to continue to support this school when, in many ways, it was falling down around them. To finally have facilities to match the quality of our program will be really terrific.” None of these schools is changing anything central to their academic programs, and they all say they’re committed to their longstanding values and roots. The capital campaigns are about enabling teachers and administrators to do what they already do, but better. When these campaigns are finished, these schools expect their buildings to enhance, rather than limit, the learning environment, and they’ll have smarter, more flexible spaces to answer the needs of 21st-century education. The buildings will also be considerably more energy-efficient. Here is a brief look at each individual school, and a summary of where they are in the process of fundraising and construction.

COMMUNITY COUNTS: ASPEN COMMUNITY SCHOOL

FOUNDED IN 1970 by a group of idealistic parents, many of whom helped erect the school itself, the Aspen Community School has offered an alternative, arts-focused curriculum for 40-plus years. In 1995 the K-8 school joined the Aspen district as a charter school. ACS was named a Colorado Top Performing School in 2009 based on three years of academic growth, and in 2010 the school received the Governor’s Distinguished Improvement Award for sixth-eighth grade. When the school launched its “I Believe” capital campaign in 2012, principal Jim Gilchrist described ACS as “one of Colorado’s top performing schools in one of its lowest-performing facilities.” Perched on a mesa at 7,600 feet, the school boasted million-dollar views of the Elk Mountains, but the roof of the main log building leaked, the septic system backed up, and the 127 students were busting the seams of a rustic structure designed for 80 pupils. Though a public school, ACS chose not to petition voters for a tax increase to fund its new campus. ACS officials worried that Aspen voters — who have approved several schoolrelated measures in recent years — might refuse to rebuild a school that serves a small portion of the district’s overall population (along with dozens of out-of-district kids as well). They had confidence, however, that the broader community of families, friends and alumni with ACS connections would step up to support the school. In 2012, the state granted $4.2 million to ACS for new facilities, but the money was contingent on a $4.9 million match from the school. After a broad-based, grassroots fundraising effort that attracted some 650 donors, the goal was reached in April 2013, but ACS is still seeking an additional $2.5 million to reach its final goal of $11.6 million. Portions of the campus master plan are

still undefined, but the overview includes a new $6.3 million, 12,000-square-foot main classroom building, a remodel of the existing visual arts and gymnasium buildings, and new housing units for four employees. The original main building, with its hublike central meeting room, will be improved and repurposed as a music center. Overall, Skinner said, the new campus will take ACS from 131 square feet per student to 172. The square footage of the school’s average classroom will go from 375 to 475, and most of those spaces will be flexible for different academic purposes. “This [campaign] is not even remotely frivolous,” Skinner said. “Our families and our teachers, all of us love this place, so there has been almost an obliviousness about the fact that something’s wrong.” Having secured the $4.2 million state grant, Aspen Community School is now in a position to set things right.

HEART OF THE ROCKIES: COLORADO ROCKY MOUNTAIN SCHOOL

CRMS WAS FOUNDED IN 1953 by John and Anne Holden, who converted a 350-acre Carbondale farm to a boarding high school that would be “the antidote to modern, easy living.” Accordingly, the curriculum still involves ambitious outdoor education programs and work crews in which students build fences, grow vegetables for the school kitchen and monitor water quality in the nearby Crystal River, among other things. Students come from all over the United States and the world to attend CRMS — today’s student body includes kids from China and Rwanda, among other countries — but the old ranch buildings are far from optimal when it comes to classroom instruction. As development director Lisa Raleigh said of the science faculty in their windowless, log classrooms, “they’re getting it done in here, but it’s just such a struggle. We almost have to overcome our infrastructure.” At the same time, however, much of that infrastructure was created or improved by school officials and students over the years. The rough-hewn buildings reflect a school ethos of manual labor and experiential learning that school officials and alumni want to maintain. “This school will always have a roughness about it that will remind us of all the work that has gone into it over the years,” Leahy said. CRMS’s “Forging the Future, Preserving the Past” campaign includes a $4.25 million investment in housing for students and teachers; $2.54 million for academic buildings; $1.56 million for administrative offices, a welcome center and a student/alumni gathering place; and $1.65 million for an endowment to ensure long-term financial strength. Overall, the $10 million campaign will affect virtually every building and every aspect of campus life, and involves as much repurposing of existing buildings as it does new construction. Construction at CRMS is proceeding as funds become available. To date, fundraising has totaled $7.3 million, with $2.7 million yet to come. A new music building and two new dorms are complete, and construction on a state-of-the-art science facility is under way. Eventually, a new library/learning center will emerge in the building that now houses the science classrooms. CRMS has about 160 students, more than two- thirds of whom are boarders. Administrators don’t intend to increase the size of the student body or change the nature of the academic, outdoor and work programs. The thrust of the physical improvements is to bring the classroom facilities into line with the high-level instruction, and to organize the campus more logically, with living spaces, academic areas, gathering centers and offices thoughtfully located. When the campaign is over, says Leahy, each building will be designed according to its purpose, and the residential structures will feel less like dormitories and more like homes, with large communal areas and abundant natural light. “I don’t think we’re all of a sudden going to be a better school,” Leahy said. “What the campaign will do is facilitate the delivery of what already is a pretty powerful program.”

SENSE OF PLACE: ASPEN COUNTRY DAY SCHOOL

FROM ITS BEGINNINGS in 1969, Aspen Country Day has shared a 23-acre site with the Aspen Music Festival and School. Country Day occupies the site from fall to spring, and the music school takes over during summertime. It’s an awkward marriage with a great deal of built-in shuffling and logistical hassle, but both organizations are deeply attached to the campus on Castle Creek, which began as a silver mine and then became a tennis and swimming club before ending up in Music Festival hands. At this point, the two schools are newly committed to their home and partnership, and are roughly one third of the way through an ambitious, double-barreled campus overhaul. Country Day’s portion of the parallel capital campaigns now under way amounts to $50 million, $35 million of which will be devoted to physical improvements, and $15 million of which involves endowments for facilities, financial aid and various curriculum components. To date, Country Day has raised about $17.5 million through a mostly quiet campaign with major donors. And, in order to fast-track the first phase of construction, the school spent the entire 2012-13 academic year in temporary quarters at the Aspen Meadows. Out on the Castle Creek campus, construction crews have hustled to erect much of the 33,000-plus square feet of new buildings in order to be ready for the Music Festival’s 2013 summer season. Country Day’s staff and prekindergarten through eighth grade students will reoccupy the Castle Creek site in September. The first phase of the campus overhaul includes an 18,700-square-foot lower-school building with classrooms and offices, and several pods of music practice rooms. Additionally, three large buildings devoted to music, visual arts and performing arts have risen alongside one of the campus’s signature ponds. All are designed for use by musicians in summer and Country Day students from fall through spring. “Around 80 percent of this space will be shared space,” Hines said. Still on the horizon but without an exact schedule, are phases two and three, which include a new gymnasium, new playing field, new dining hall, new middle school classroom building, and the renovation of several existing structures. A new loop road will ensure that the center of campus will be carfree and pedestrian-friendly. There will be a break from construction activity over the coming year, but fundraising will continue and the “Known and Loved” capital campaign should be complete by 2019, when the school will turn 50. Like CRMS and the Aspen Community School, Country Day is making a multi-million dollar leap into the future, but is also trying to honor its roots, which include a close connection to the outdoors and the mountain environment. “I think one of the things that drives people to all of these schools is a sense of place,” Hines said. •

“I THINK ONE OF THE THINGS THAT DRIVES PEOPLE TO ALL OF THESE SCHOOLS IS A SENSE OF PLACE.” The old buildings at ACDS, pictured here, are being remodeled and rebuilt to meet the need of today’s students.

The SOCIAL The SOCIAL SIDE SIDE of TOWN of TOWN

by MARY ESHBAUGH HAYES

SURPRISE BIRTHDAY PARTY THE YEAR 2012 was a special year marked by many special events. One of them was a surprise birthday party given for longtime Aspenite Mary Ann Hyde by her daughter, Carolyne Hyde at the Greenhouse Room at the Little Nell Hotel. Carolyne knew who many of her mother’s MARY friends were as Mary ESHBAUGH Ann was famous for HAYES giving Christmas parties and summertime parties. So many of Mary Ann’s friends came and it really seemed like one of her parties of years gone by. Her son, Art Hyde, was also on hand, but had not been told about the party because “He cannot keep a secret.” Daughter Ann Hyde and granddaughter Olivia Hyde were not able to get an airline flight to get here in time. The Aspen Times and High Country News recenlty ran book reviews about Nancy Wood’s newest book, “The Soledad Crucifixion.” I am sorry to report that Nancy died March 12, 2013, at her home in Santa Fe, N.M., of cancer. She was 76. Nancy had written more than 25 books and produced 25,000 photographs of the Southwest, many of them volumes of poetry and photographic books about the Southern Ute communities, Colorado ranches and small towns in the 1970s and 1980s. She also wrote several stories for children. Her latest book was “The Soledad Cruscifixion,” which was published last summer and was about a Catholic priest in the last years of the 19th century who loses his faith as he bonds with a small group of Indians called the Calabazas. She had been working on the novel for 38 years. She said it was a story of survival, sin, guilt and redemption. Nancy came to Aspen every summer to attend the Aspen Music Festival and we always took a hike to the top of Independence Pass as she said it was her spiritual home. Her ashes will be scattered there in late July by her surviving four children.

THELISTINGS

MAY 23 - 29, 2013

SEE “The Hangover, Part III” opens in area theaters on Thursday, May 23.

ONGOING

WEDNESDAY, MAY 22

ROB PRUITT — 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Aspen Art Museum, 590 N. Mill St., Aspen. Since the early 1990s, Pruitt’s risk-taking investigations into American popular culture have taken many forms. From his notorious “Cocaine Buffet” (1998) and glitter portraits of pandas to such events as his ongoing flea market and annual art awards, Pruitt has employed a post-pop sensibility to playfully satirize the art world and its ambivalent relation to celebrity and popular culture. His exhibition at the museum will be the artist’s first-ever solo museum survey in America. Call 970-925-8050.

STATE REP. DIANE MITSCH BUSH TOWN HALL MEETING — 5:30 to 7 p.m., Basalt Regional Library, 14 Midland Ave., Basalt. State House District 26 representative will share highlights from the 2013 General Assembly and listen to concerns. Call 970-704-9535.

THEA DJORDJADZE — 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Aspen Art Museum, 590 N. Mill St., Aspen. Originally trained as a painter, Djordjadze is best known for creating sculptural installations that combine found and constructed elements in carefully choreographed settings. Employing materials ranging from the elegant to the everyday, Djordjadze’s installations often suggest fragmentary arrangements of furniture and other functional objects, oscillating between such categories as abstraction and decoration, model and reality, process and product. And while her works may develop out of her interests in cinema, architecture and literature, their references remain oblique, in effect setting a mood rather than telling a story. This will be Djordjadze’s first major solo exhibition in North America. Call 970-925-8050.

DWIGHT F. FERREN, GUITARISt — 5 to 8 p.m., Village Smithy, Main Street, Carbondale. Call 970-927-1076.

BOOK REVIEW

‘SHORT NIGHTS OF THE SHADOW CATCHER’ IN “SHORT NIGHTS of the Shadow Catcher,” Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter Timothy Egan, who also won the National Book Award in 2006 for “The Worst Hard Times,” chronicles the life story of photographer Edward Curtis in engrossing detail. Curtis, famous in the late 1890s for his Seattle society portraits, began a 30year adventure the day he saw Princess Angeline, daughter of Chief Seattle, walking the mudflats in search of clams. In Angeline, Curtis saw “a person and nature, one and the same in his mind, as they belonged.” These first images inspired an ambitious plan: In 1900, Curtis abandoned his career to wander the country and “photograph all intact Indian communities left in North America, to capture the essence of their lives before that essence disappeared.” Egan vividly conveys the sense of urgency Curtis felt as he raced to by DAVID J. KAHN | edited by WILL SHORTZ

record the customs of more than 80 tribes. Curtis spent years among the Indians to gain their trust, determined to create stories and photographs that reflected each society’s true spirit and life, although, as critics have noted, he was not above staging scenes based on research, or manipulating photos to get the effects he wanted. As time passed, Curtis began to believe that the “American Indians could vanish within (his) lifetime. Perhaps he was already too late.” And every year, more Indians turned away from their culture, forced to do so by the rules of the day, which made embracing the old customs — even speaking the old languages — illegal. Financial backing was a constant problem. Curtis envisioned publishing 20 volumes of work, using only the finest paper and photography methods available. His frustration is tangible as the necessary support was denied time

and again. Fortunately, he eventually obtained backing from the wealthy J.P. Morgan to complete his epic project. Even though he accomplished an amazing amount — leaving behind some 40,000 photographs, 10,000 recorded songs, several “moving pictures,” and vocabularies and pronunciation guides for over 75 languages — Edward Curtis sacrificed his marriage, money and health to the project, and died penniless and practically forgotten in 1952. Egan’s exhaustive research and compelling text pull readers into the photographer’s life and vision, giving overdue acclaim to a man whose work is now used by Native communities to help resurrect half-forgotten languages and customs. Reproductions of some of Curtis’ more famous photographs round out this riveting biography.
