THE WEEKLY CONVERSATION

by ANDREW TRAVERS

FESTIVAL WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE

kind of mac and cheese? If you said “Free mac and cheese,” you’re in luck. The sixth annual Aspen Mac ’n’ Cheese Festival — the best little festival in Aspen — returns to restaurant Row on Saturday, Sept. 10. It’s all free and many of the recipes from local restaurants are dependably delicious. The festival pits local chefs against one another in (mostly) friendly competition, showing off their recipes of the irresistible cheese and noodle dish and serving it up in 2 oz. cups to a voting public. Launched by the city of Aspen’s recreation department, the festival has drawn upward of 5,000 attendees in the last few years. Cache Cache is the recipe to beat this year. In the 2015 competition, the restaurant won the most votes in the “Chefs Choice” category as well as “Peoples Choice,” Kids Choice” and “Judges Choice” (winning everything but the “Best Theme/Most Fun” prize, which went to the goofballs from the Aspen Elks Lodge). Rustique Bistro is also always a contender — it won the competition in the festival’s first three outings. But, of course, everybody is a winner when everybody fills up on free cheesy mac on a Saturday afternoon. The Mac ’n’ Cheese Festival runs from 2 to 5 p.m. on Restaurant Row (Hopkins Avenue between Mill and Monarch streets).

The Aspen Mac ‘n’ Cheese Festival will run from 2 to 5 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 10.

CURRENTEVENTS ART

The Tough Mudder endurance race runs in Snowmass Village on Sept. 10 and 11.

The September Basalt ArtWalk will run from 5 to 7 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 9.

BASALT’S MONTHLY ARTWALK is back on Midland Avenue on Friday, Sept. 9. The festive open gallery stroll runs on the second Friday of each month, and this summer it has become a popular weekend kick-off event. Within three blocks of Midland Avenue, the walk brings you to galleries including Toklat, the Art Base and Art Base Annex, Colori, One of a Kind, Tania Dibbs and Ann Korologos. The ArtWalk runs from 5 to 7 p.m. More info at basaltchamber.org.

SPORTS THE TOUGH MUDDER is returning to Snowmass Village on Sept. 10 and 11 with a new course on the Snowmass ski area. If you’re not up for running, getting wet, dodging fire and electric shocks and all the extreme fun of the endurance race, you can watch the Mudders from the comfort and safety of the stands. Spectator tickets are $20. They’re available — along with registration to race — at toughmudder.com.

SCHOOL DAZE

1954 ASPEN

“SCHOOL NOW OWNS THREE SCHOOL BUSES,” announced The Aspen Times on Sept. 10, 1954. “Here is the new 30-passenger Ford school bus purchased by the school board for the transportation of Aspen school district pupils for the coming year. This bus will be driven by Lowell Elisha, one of the new teachers this year. His route will be over McLain Flats road to the True Smith bridge, and the lower Brush Creek area and return to town. This makes three buses now owned by the district. This summer, the board purchased the bus owned and driven last year by Mr. George Condon. It also is a 30-passenger Ford bus almost exactly the same as the new one. This bus will be driven by Robert Autrey who alternated with Robert B. Lewis in operating the small bus last year. Autrey will drive this bus up Woody Creek road as far as the Stanley Natal ranch then past Woody Creek down as far as the Gerbaz ranch to the highway and return. The third bus, an 18-passenger Chevrolet, will be driven by Robert B. Lewis, science teacher, who will make a route up Owl Creek over the divide into Brush Creek and thence up that valley to the Johnnie Hoaglund ranch and return. The buses will probably also be used to take boys and girls to out-of-town football and basketball games.” The photo above shows the new bus parked in front of the Red Brick school in September 1954.

GEAR of the WEEK

by STEPHEN REGENOLD

WEAR IT: TRUCKER HAT FOR OUTDOORS A CURVED BILL, a mesh back, and a tall (often foam) front, the trucker hat is an unlikely trend in the outdoors. The trucker is an even less likely performance choice for activity-oriented headwear. Surprisingly, the retro look can cut it on both the aesthetic and the athletic fronts. A fad built off of irony and popculture adoption, the outdoors crowd is a bit late to the game. But the trucker reigns still from ultra runners to ski bums, and the industry has taken note. Brands such as Oiselle and Patagonia now sell the style. The North Face markets to runners with its Trail Trucker. Headsweats, a stalwart performance-hat maker, jumped in with a trucker option. I reviewed the Headsweats 5-Panel Trucker Hat. It’s made to “wear every day” or as a performance piece for running. I tested it both ways, donning a bigfoot motif from the brand. The $25 hat is made with a woven mesh that’s soft and breathable on back. Instead of foam, a taut, layered fabric is employed up front for the main face. A terry headband wrapped in knit helps absorb sweat as you run. This is a Headsweats signature, and the trucker build keeps the salty drips out of your eyes similar to the company’s tight-fitting running hats. Style points come from the fun look. I got comments on the hat and its declaration of “feeling alive” in the outdoors. A bigfoot graphic on front is embroidered extra thick, its bulked thread creating a subtle 3D effect. Black under the visor helps reduce glare from the sun. It has a common button closure on back for adjustment and is sold as “one size fits most.” On the run, the hat is comfortable and stays on tight. It’s breathable enough for summer days and keeps the sun at bay, save for the mesh, which lets some light through to the head. The 5-Panel Trucker has a stiff bill and weighs about 2.5 ounces. This is an ounce or more heavier than other running hats I have, and

it is more “noticeable” up there, though not cumbersome. For serious running, most athletes don more streamlined headwear. Trucker hats can blow off easier in wind, and the bigger build has disadvantages if you’re seeking absolute performance on your head. However, some ultra runners wear truckers in marquee events, preferring the comfort and the bigger bill. Try out a trucker, from Headsweats or another brand, if you’re in need of a new style for the outdoors. The look is easy to like and does double duty as a sun-shading, sweat-sucking lid on the trail.

WINEINK

THE TRAVELING WINEMAKER OREGON’S PETER ROSBACK AND THE WINES OF SINEANN

“THIS IS MY 41ST HARVEST,” Peter Rosback, the winemaker and owner of Oregon’s uber acclaimed Sineann wines said with a degree of pride recently over lunch. “Of course, I cheat. I do two a year.” Now, he knew he wasn’t making a confession when he said he cheated. Rather, Peter was just bragging on KELLY J. himself. He was HAYES aware that anyone within ear-shot would wonder exactly how he had the good fortune to work twice as many grape harvests as any one region has in a year’s time. Obviously, he was a travelling man and his boast was that in any given year he would work a harvest here, in the northern hemisphere, and then head for a second one in the southern hemisphere. In Peter’s case, he gets to spend the months of September and October bringing in some of the world’s finest grapes from the vineyards he contracts with in Oregon and Washington. Then, in our spring, he heads south to harvest more of the world’s finest grapes, in this case pinot noir and sauvignon blanc, in the vineyards that lie on New Zealand’s South Island. It is a lifestyle that fits this fiercely independent and intensely meticulous former engineer to a T. Peter makes about 8,000 cases of his Sineann wines. While never content to while away on a single variety, though it is his deft hand with pinot noir that has brought him myriad accolades, he reckons that he produces up to “20ish” different wines at any given time. I spoke with him on the first day of September as he was driving along the Columbia River Gorge to the iconic Champoux Vineyard for the initial harvest of this fall season. He was on

his way from his home in the Willamette Valley to kick off what is now his 42nd harvest and pick some Orange Muscat. “Orange Muscat?” I asked, a bit bewildered, as I did not know the grape was part of his repertoire. “Yeah,” he replied. “I’m going to make an ice wine. And I have a friend who is an herbalist. I thought we would try and make an amari (a family of Italian herbal elixirs) that is not too sweet. And I love the orange aromas.” It was typical Peter, never being typical. “You gotta’ have some fun,” he said. Another example of Peter’s atypical nature can be found as one opens the bottles of many of his wines. Rather than corks, you’ll find elegant glass stoppers. For years, he was frustrated by the rate of failure that wines under cork had. So he went looking for a solution and in 2005 began using a product called Vino-Seal. It is another case of his being an early adaptor. Peter began making wines as a hobby while working as an engineer. He worked alongside Owen Roe winemaker David O’Reilly for a number of harvests at Oregon’s Elk Cove Winery, where both learned the basics of the business. In 1994, they paired to found Sineann and launched with a first release of 125 cases of old vine Zinfandel. In the ensuing years, the two have split into different companies and both have been pioneers in the still emerging Northwest wine culture. An early lesson learned that resonates to this day is that sourcing is the most important part of the winemaker’s job. “It really is all about the fruit,” Peter said. And the thing that he focuses on the most is finding the places, the people and the vineyards that produce the best grapes. “Some people achieve the potential of a given site,” he said. “Kevin Chambers did that with the

S e pte m b e r 8 - S e pte m b e r 14 , 20 16

Sineann hand picks and sorts the clusters of grapes as they come in from the vineyards.

Resonance Vineyard (a legendary Willamette Valley pinot noir vineyard), and Paul Champoux was able to do that with his vineyard in the Horse Heaven Hills. It makes it easy when you have great fruit.” They are just two of 10 or so vineyards throughout the globe that Peter sources from. It was this desire to find great grapes that led him to New Zealand where he harvests and makes a pinot noir from Central Otago, the stunningly gorgeous valley that is the southernmost wine region on earth, and a sauvignon blanc from Marlborough. Peter believes both regions are on the cusp of becoming epic. “This is where the future of sauvignon blanc is,” he said of Marlborough. “Once they get it down, look out Sancere. This will be the best in the world one day.” Always a step ahead. Typical Peter. Kelly J. Hayes lives in the soon-to-be-designated appellation of Old Snowmass with his wife, Linda, and black Lab named Vino. He can be reached at malibukj@aol.com.

UNDER THE INFLUENCE SINEANN 2015 PIEDRA ROJA OREGON PINOT NOIR Want to taste one of Peter’s pinots? The Wild Fig will soon be pouring his Piedra Roja by the glass. Sourced from four of Oregon’s best vineyards, this cuvee is made exclusively for the Colorado market and gets its’ name from the distinctive red stone of Red Stone. Aromatic and full bodied, this pinot is a perfect pairing for the offerings at the Fig.

AN ATYPICAL WINEMAKER PICKS A WEDDING DATE What winemaker in his right mind decides to get married during the harvest season? Well, Peter Rosback for one. This September 30th, literally in the heart of the Oregon Pinot Noir harvest, Peter will join hearts with his wife to be, Faye. “She said she wanted to get married on her mother’s birthday and it just happened to be on that date,” Peter explained. “I told her we may be picking that day, and she said ‘be there by 2 o’clock, or I’m asking for volunteers.’”

Tomato and watermelon gazpacho is the perfect way to use summer’s tomato bounty.

GAZPACHO IS UBIQUITOUS IN THE SUMMER and one of the best ways to use those delicious but “ugly” tomatoes that are bursting with flavor but may not be pretty enough to slice. And, often, tomato vendors at farmers’ markets will sell the “dented” tomatoes at half price. Snap them up — they’re perfect for gazpacho and tomato sauce. The chilled summer soup that originated in southern Spain is generally made from raw tomatoes, cucumbers, onions and garlic. These days there are countless variations of gazpacho (white gazpacho, anyone?) but my favorite one is made with grilled vegetables and the addition of watermelon and mint. The grilling of the vegetables adds a smoky element that makes the soup taste more like

soup and less like vegetable juice to me. The watermelon adds a touch of sweetness and the mint perks everything up. I don’t want to lose the essence of the gazpacho so the vegetables are grilled over indirect heat only until they are crisp tender. The grill is pre-heated on high and the burners under the vegetables are turned off after you place the various ingredients on the grill so the watermelon and some of the vegetables will get grill marks on one side — this will contribute to the light smoky flavor. The best part is that once the vegetables are grilled, you place everything in a blender and puree away. A little best quality olive oil, red wine vinegar and fresh mint and basil are all you need to finish this simple summer soup.

Preheat grill with all burners on high. Stem the tomatoes and cut in half. Core and seed the pepper. Peel and halve the cucumber lengthwise. Peel the onion and garlic and cut the roots off the scallions. Place vegetables bottom-side down on the cooking grate. You can place the garlic inside the pepper, or in a disposable drip pan. Brush all the vegetables and the watermelon lightly with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Place all vegetables in the center of the cooking grate and turn the burners off under the food. Be sure to close the lid of the grill. Grill over indirect heat until hot and beginning to soften, about 15 minutes. You want them to still be crisp. Transfer the vegetables to a platter to cool, reserving any juices that collect. Chop vegetables into large chunks if necessary and place with oil, vinegar, herbs, and seasonings in a blender. Blend at high speed until smooth. Add vinegar, salt, and pepper to taste. If the gazpacho seems too thick, thin with a little more olive oil. Add more vinegar to taste. The gazpacho should be highly seasoned. Chill until serving. Ladle gazpacho into shallow bowls. Garnish each with a dollop of sour cream or creme fraiche, and a sprinkling of chopped herbs.

Panther. The man with the task of creating the drinks was beverage director Kelly Naughton. The basis for the drinks started with the colors of the teams. Then, he experimented with taste and ingredients that were still drinkable and accessible. The results? The Bucking Broncos is a vodka-based cocktail served in a double rocks glass that has an orange tint to it and is very easy drinking. You know, the kind that gets you in trouble because you can drink five and forget there’s booze in it. The Black Panther, a rye-based cocktail served in a coupe glass, has infused charcoal to give it that black hue. Yes, charcoal. But don’t be alarmed, the drink actually feels light and has a hint of fruitiness to it, with no traces of charcoal. Of course, we’ll be drinking the Bucking Bronco on Thursday night.

The SOCIAL SIDE of TOWN

SCENES FROM THE SUMMER

MAY SELBY

YET ANOTHER SENSATIONAL summer in Aspen has blown by in a blur, filled with a seemingly infinite stream of cultural events, community gatherings, charitable benefits and riveting adventures. Among the highlights — Anderson Ranch’s 50th anniversary summer, dotted with discussions with special guests, resident artists, their Auctionettes, picnics, exhibitions and more. The Aspen Institute’s summer series of conversation always inspires and engages the mind, even more so during an election year. Walter Isaacson’s discussion with Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz and his wife Sherri, followed by a rap from their friend, hip-hop star and

Hot mamas Danielle Noto and Jacqueline Duba at Rock Bottom Ranch.

social activist, Common, was among my favorites. Programs from organizations such as the Aspen Science Center provoke thought and creativity from kids, as well as their parents. They also offer an opportunity to witness “experiments that shouldn’t be tried at home,” said guest scientist/comedian Doktor Kaboom, a popular presenter at the Aspen Science Fair. Looking ahead to ski season at an event this summer, the Aspen Chamber’s annual Afternoon Blend, held Aug. 18, featured ski industry greats speaking to the Audi FIS Ski World Cup Finals coming March 15 to 18. Panelists Alpine Ski World Cup Founder Bob Beattie, Aspen native Bill Marolt, now

retired from his posts as athletic director at the University of Colorado and President of the U.S. Ski Association, reigning Olympic, World Cup and World Champion slalom skier Mikaela Shiffrin and Olympic ski racer Christin Cooper discussed the return of these races to the historic site of America’s Downhill. Like ski racing, “an individual sport that takes a whole team to make it work,” to quote Cooper, this event will take a communal effort to ensure it’s the grand success it’s poised to be.

FROM ASPEN, WITH LOVE

ASPEN UNTUCKED

by BARBARA PLATTS

THE CANINES VS. THE FELINES

AN ATTEMPT AT GETTING A KITTEN AND A PUPPY TO BECOME BEST FRIENDS CATS AND DOGS HAVE BEEN KNOWN as quintessential rivals since the dawn of time. Each are an acquired taste — the chocolate vs. the vanilla, the boxers or the briefs, either the white wine or the red vintage — and us humans tend to gravitate toward one or the other. Last week, my boyfriend and I (who blatantly and unabashedly consider BARBARA ourselves dog people) PLATTS tried our luck and our skills at kitten-sitting. Two close friends recently adopted a kitten and were leaving town for a couple days. Grown cats typically like, or can at least handle, being left alone for days on end. But this little guy is only three months old and in need of care. So we brought him to our place. The kitten’s name is Socks. He’s mostly black with a white chest and four white paws. He’s rather malleable, allowing humans to pick him up when they see fit. He loves attention and gets rather persistent in his meows when he is not getting it. All in all

though, he is a friendly cat that seems open to making friends and trying new things. Until Cassius came along. Cassius is our two-year old pup. He, too, is all black with a white chest and white paws. He weighs roughly 65 pounds and is full of energy. Cassius is a very friendly dog, perhaps to a fault. His overzealous attitude towards making new friends can often seem downright abrasive. Perhaps it’s an only-child syndrome. Maybe it has to do something with his early life on an Indian reservation in Chinle, Arizona. Either way, he’s desperate for buddies and doesn’t mind showing it. Because of this, we expected Cassius to come on a bit strong with Socks at the beginning. And he did not disappoint. The relationship between cat and dog has been told numerous times in the media. However, perhaps the best example of this interesting yet polarizing relationship is in the movies “Homeward Bound” and “Homeward Bound II: Lost in San Francisco”. For those of you who have never watched those movies, well, first, shame on you. Had you no proper childhood? Go rent both

of them this instant. Secondly, the movies centers around two dogs and a cat that seem to keep getting lost in some fashion or another and have to find their way home. One of the main relationships in this movie is between Chance, an American bulldog, and Sassy, a Himalayan cat. They are constantly teasing and taunting one another and a big part of the reason is they just don’t see eye to eye. They do everything differently, from begging for food to cleaning themselves. Because of this, communicating is one of the most difficult things. In the case of Cassius vs. Socks, lack of communication was a key obstacle in their friendship. When Cash wanted to play he tried to entrance the kitten by running around and barking. This only frightened Socks, leading him to hiss at the dog and attempt to claw him. When Cassius would finally get discouraged enough to take a break in his kennel, Socks would come back around, seeking out attention. Cassius would get excited and hopeful for playtime but ruin his chances by approaching the feline and trying to lick his

nose. The closest we got to physical play was early one morning when we convinced the cat that the dog’s tail was worth chasing. Cassius didn’t seem to mind it either. He was grateful for any interaction he could get. Finally, out of frustration on our parts, we locked them both in a room together. Once alone, without external influences, the tensions eased slightly and the barking and the hissing came to an end. At least, for that moment. The three days ended with the two house animals still only lukewarm to one another. Socks was happy to get back to his own house where he could roam as he pleased without a drooly, panting dog on his heels. Cassius seemed a bit lonely but content to have our full attention once again. The next play date for these two has yet to be set, but I’m sure when it happens, they will greet each other with open paws and minds...hopefully. Barbara Platts highly recommends going to the Aspen Animal Shelter if you are considering adopting a cat or a dog…or a bird for that matter. To reach her, email bplatts.000@gmail.com.

A PASSION FOR Y BILL FABROCINI TAKES THE ASPEN SPORTS SUMMIT TO THE NEXT LEVEL

A L P

BY KELLY J. HAYES

O

ver the past quarter-century, Bill Fabrocini has become a go-to physical therapist in the Roaring Fork Valley. For those who have injured their knees on the slopes, their shoulders in the hockey rinks, or their backs in their dayto-day lives, an appointment with Fabrocini has become the holy grail of recovery. He has developed a reputation for aiding athletes and helping ordinary folks regain control of their bodies as they come back from the injuries that are part and parcel of the Aspen lifestyle. But just don’t call him a “healer.” At least not to his face. “Yeah, I get that a lot,” he said sheepishly, as his gaze drifted to the floor of Victoria’s Espresso and Wine Bar, where he sat sipping a green tea. “But I’d never call myself that. I consider healers as part of the Eastern traditions. I just use what I have learned over the years about the neurological, muscular, respiratory and cardiovascular systems of the body to find connections, to see patterns, and use those to help people improve and get better.” He paused, then added, “I’ve been playing with the same machine for years.”

PHOTO BY ANNA STONEHOUSE

It is this combination of a wide-ranging knowledge of the human body and his gentle but laser-focused personality that has made Fabrocini perhaps the most in-demand physical shaman in the valley. Now, he is expanding his presence and sphere of influence by sharing not only his expertise, but also the wisdom of many of America’s finest minds in physical therapy, coaching and medicine in a two-day event called the Aspen Sports Summit.

ASPEN SPORTS SUMMIT 2.0 On Sept. 9 and 10, the Aspen Meadows will host the second annual Aspen Sports Summit, presented by Bill Fabrocini and the Aspen Club. In an intense and diverse program, attendees will listen to lectures by luminaries in the sportslifestyle culture ranging from athletes (former 100m world champion and five-time Olympian Lauryn Williams) to sports psychologists (Dr. Haley Perlus, professor at the University of Colorado) to bestselling authors (Chris Crowley, of the “Better Next Year” series of books). In addition to lectures, year two at the Aspen Sports Summit will give attendees the chance to physically

participate with the speakers in specific exercises and workouts. “The first session on Friday at 8 a.m. will be a workout session with PJ O’ Clair, one of the most highly regarded Pilates instructors on the planet,” Fabrocini said. For an 75 minutes, Summit attendees will be able to go through a stretch session at the Meadows with the best in the business without flying to Boston, O’Clair’s home base. “Best” is a word that comes up often in discussions of the Aspen Sports Summit. Though unaffiliated with the Aspen Institute and the Aspen Ideas Festival, the Aspen Sports Summit has many things in common with that august group. Not only does it share a venue with the Ideas Fest, it also embodies a similar philosophy: bring the most innovative and important speakers on a given topic to Aspen and provide an open and unfettered forum for the exchange of ideas. Think of the Aspen Sports Summit as an Ideas Festival for those who aspire to live the uber-physical Aspen lifestyle. “I believe the best way to inspire people is to gather inspirational speakers together and let them talk about their passion,” Fabrocini said. “The best in their given fields will be here with a primary motivation of

A S P E N T I M E S . C O M / W E E K LY

21


helping others create and achieve their dreams and fitness goals.” And the best come because they recognize the value of being part of the vision. “All of the speakers donate their time to be here at the Summit,” Fabrocini said. “It was a bit humbling last year when I began calling up colleagues and friends, explaining to them what I wanted to do and asking them to speak at the first Summit. But when they started calling back and saying, ‘yeah, I want to come,’ it was enormously gratifying.” While the overall focus of the Aspen Sports Summit is on the elements of health and fitness, year one had a sub-focus on concussions in sports. This year, the focus moves to reduce back pain. “Backs are an example of something you can help by understanding patterns,” said Fabrocini. The roster of specialists in the field who are speaking include: Dr. Eric Goodman, a 36-year-old California back guru who has designed the revolutionary “Foundation Training” program (he counts surfer Kelly Slater amongst his clients); spine and neck specialist at the Steadman Clinic, Dr. Donald Corenman; and Dr. Jeremy James, the Director of the Aspen Club Back Institute. Rarely do people have an opportunity to find this range of experts on the subject in one place at one time.

THE ASPEN SPORTS SUMMITS CONSTITUENCIES “Everybody has a dream,” Fabrocini said about the people who attended last year’s inaugural Aspen Sports Summit. “It may be about team sports or winning an individual medal. Some folks may want to just finish a 10K, or even be able to play a round of golf. Or maybe the goal is to just get through the day pain-free.” The Aspen Sports Summit is designed for those who are interested in learning how to live a more efficient or pain-free active lifestyle. The constituencies range from world-class athletes to weekend warriors to those who are simply fighting off the natural effects of the aging process. In addition, professionals in the areas of sports medicine and physical therapy qualify for Continuing Education Units as part of their

accreditation when they attend the Aspen Sports Summit. The American Council on Exercise, the National Strength and Conditioning Association and the National Academy of Sports Medicine have all sanctioned the event for credits. But Fabrocini also noted that it is imperative for the success of the Summit going forward that the local community buys into the program. While the hope is to create national, even international, demand for the Summit, it is the local population that holds the key. “The only way for this to succeed is if there is a connection between the Aspen community and the events,” he noted. “We need to show the connection between attending the event and improved performance.” And they can.

GAME ON Fabrocini came to the world of physical therapy following a career as a NCAA Division 1 Hockey player, first at Cornell University and then as a UMass Lowell River Hawk. “I had injuries and back pain. So, I got a degree in physical therapy and came to Aspen,” he said. That was in 1990, and in the ensuing years he has enjoyed an extended relationship with the Aspen

“BILL HAS BEEN WITH ME THROUGHOUT MOST OF MY CAREER AS MY PHYSICAL THERAPIST, STRENGTH COACH, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY FRIEND. I COULD NOT IMAGINE GOING THROUGH MY ATHLETIC CAREER WITHOUT HIM. “ CHRIS KLUG, 2002 OLYMPIC BRONZE MEDALIST

Club, which is a presenting sponsor of the Aspen Sports Summit. For 18 years, he was the Club’s Director of Sports Performance. Over the years, he has developed a loyal following of long-time Aspenites he works with on a weekly basis, keeping his schedule full. Local Nancy Nevin, a partner in the Bumps for Boomers ski program, is an example of one of Fabrocini’s loyal client base. “I started working with Bill after my second spine surgery,” she said. “Eight years and three knee surgeries later, I’m stronger than I’ve ever been. Bill literally gave me my life back.” Fabrocini also has worked professionally with athletes, including winter Olympians Gretchen Bleiler, Chris Klug and Casey Puckett, as well as tennis hall of famer Martina Navratilova and Tour de France rider Tejay Van Garderen. “Bill constantly challenges me with innovative and creative workouts that are relative to cycling. It’s been an enlightening and fun learning process and I feel much stronger and stable on the bike,” Van Garderen said. He also consults for a number of different sports organizations, including a recent stint with the Club Deportivo Guadalajara, or Chivas, Football Club of Guadalajara, Mexico. These experiences culminated in an “aha” moment for him last year.

Bill Fabrocini works an strength, mobility and balance with all his clients. Even Olympians like Chris Klug (far left).

“I was turning 50, and I thought I had accumulated all of this knowledge,” he said. “I wanted to do something special, so rather than just take a trip, I thought I would honor the relationships I have with my clients and colleagues and create something. That something has become the Aspen Sports Summit.” “Bill always says, ‘you have to pay to play.’ We are so blessed to have Bill share his gift with our community,” Nevin said about Fabrocini’s involvement in the Aspen Sports Summit.

GIVING BACK A critical component of the Aspen Sports Summit is charitable contributions made to different organizations. This year, $5,000 checks were written to the Carbondale-based Haiti Children (haitichildren.com) and Basalt’s Bridging Bionics Foundation (bridgingbionics.org) on behalf of the Summit. Fabrocini sees the ability to contribute as a key reason for attending the Aspen Sports Summit. “Everyone can be a part of this,” he said about the philanthropic goals of the Summit. “We have the potential to grow the charitable contributions

LAURYN WILLIAMS One of the most versatile athletes on the planet, Williams won gold medals in both the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia, as a member of the 2 Woman Bobsleigh team, and in the 2012 London Olympics as a member of the US 4x100m relay team. She also won a silver medal eight years before in the 100m at the 2004 Athens Olympics. Now, using her skills as a speaker, she will address the Aspen Sports Summit on Saturday, Sept. 10, at 12:30 p.m. In a presentation titled “A Few Things I Know For Sure,” she will discuss her experiences as a woman on a global athletic stage and in the world of sports medicine, nutrition and competition. “I hope to inspire people to be the best they can be,” she said. “Nobody is perfect and we should delight in our imperfections.” GREG ROSKOPF, M.A. As the founder of the Muscle Activation Techniques program, Roskopf is an expert in how the cause and effect of the muscular system relates to physical pain. He operates the Denverbased program and works with personal clients and professional sports organizations, including the Denver Broncos, the Utah Jazz and the Denver Nuggets. Perhaps his best-known client was former Bronco quarterback Peyton Manning, who worked extensively with Roskopf as he recovered from neck surgery that forced him to miss a season. Manning was quoted by Peter King in a Sports Illustrated article in 2012 as saying, “Last year, when I flew Roskopf to Indianapolis, I was paying him what he’d make all day for his appointments in Denver. But if he helps me extend my career by two years, with two more years of salary, it’s well worth it.” I guess it was. “My goal is that attendees will recognize how many times exercise can reinforce our imbalances which in turn can lead to injury,” Roskopf said. “From this they will be able to take away principles that will allow them to more effectively prescribe exercises for their clients.” Roskopf will speak on the effects of Muscle Activation Techniques on Saturday afternoon at 3:30 p.m.

to $30,000, even $40,000, in the years to come. Our goal is to help other organizations while gathering a group of professionals together and creating a solid event.” While learning from, and working out with, the speakers at the Aspen Sports Summit is the draw, Fabrocini believes that the opportunity to be a part of the giving component is a big reason for participating. “I’ve been to Haiti, and I know the difference a $300 contribution can make to the children there,” he said. He also has worked extensively with Bridging Bionics founder Amanda Boxtel in her life after paralysis. “At the end of the day (Saturday), we’ll have big party at BB’s (open bar and hors d’oeuvres) for everyone who came. And it will be fun, but I hope people will have been inspired and feel good about making a contribution as well.” That is what will define success for Bill Fabrocini and the 2016 Aspen Sports Summit.

BILL’S FAB FIVE TIPS FOR BETTER LIVING EVERY DAY

1. Move with Purpose Don’t just exercise to build muscle, create good movement blueprints that transfer over to everything you do in life.

2. Reboot Muscles deactivate because of poor habits, i.e., slouching or prolonged sitting. Counter this by frequently getting tall and tensing your muscles daily.

3. Balance To the best of your ability, balance all elements of your day, work/play, stress/relax, exercise/recovery.

4. Connect with others Encourage others all the time even when it’s hard. When possible, be a part of something bigger than yourself.

5. Never quit A bit cliché, but it’s true.

A ROAD TRIP TO CREEDE

TWO PREMIERE PERFORMANCES AT THE LEGENDARY CREEDE REPERTORY THEATRE CREEDE REPERTORY THEATRE is a Rocky Mountains legend. Now in its 51st season, the company has carved out a highly improbable national profile for developing and producing fresh new works for the stage. A town of about 300 residents, Creede — near no population center and surrounded by the soaring San Juan Mountains and the remarkable skeletons of its silver mining heyday — has become a landmark that’s on the bucket list of theatergoers everywhere. Still, it’s hard to believe the hype until the curtain goes up. On a recent weekend, I made my first pilgrimage to this remote utopia of the dramatic arts. I wandered the scant, charming downtown a few hours before show time on Saturday and wondered where the audience would come from. There were few people on the sidewalks and in the shops around the theater, no cars driving Main Street. And yet, come curtain time, the 230-seat main stage theater — one of two the company fills all summer — was sold out and filled with an enthusiastic audience. Where’d they come from? I have no idea. It felt a bit like a magical “If you build, it, they will come” “Field of Dreams” moment. Over my two days in Creede, I caught the company’s two newest shows, “Kind of Red” and “The History Room,” which both had their world premiere runs this summer.

help. The saint strikes a remarkable resemblance to another Lucy (as in “I Love Lucy,” though that iconic show and Lucille Ball go unnamed). Lucia, played in an inspired and versatile turn by Caitlin Wise, is on a mission to set her Ricky right. Of course, the shadow of Lucille Ball looms large. An actress needs a lot more than red hair to do her justice. But Wise does it in a performance that transcends homage or mimicry — from the smallest mannerisms to that booming confidence and optimism to some extraordinary physical comedy and the timbre of her “Oh, Ricky!” she nails it as she flits across the stage and sows chaos around Rick’s apartment. Things get wacky once Lucia shows up. There are capers big and small, a laugh track, an outlandish return by Rosalita herself (Mehry Eslaminia), a battle of bedroom wills between the landlady and her husband (Logan Ernstthal), and a salsa contest that explodes into an uproarious costumed affair. Amid all the shenanigans and the laughs, “Kind of Red” ends up

hitting a sweet and sentimental note. This unhinged St. Lucia is not only a take on “Lucy” but a clever spin on Clarence, the angel from “It’s a Wonderful Life,” descending to show Ricky how good he has it and — of course — to get him to Birdland on time. ‘THE HISTORY ROOM’

Running in-the-round in Creede’s intimate Ruth Humphries Brown Theatre through Sept. 15, Charlie Thurston’s “The History Room” is a remarkable exploration of the malleability of memory and also a deeply personal look at how it feels to lose one’s mind to dementia. The plot seems a relatively straightforward set-up. In their youth, Steve agreed to kill his best friend Helen if ever she began losing her mind to dementia. When that day comes, and Helen begins descending into the fog, Steve arrives at her New England home to carry out the deed. Will he or won’t he? But nothing about “The History Room,” like nothing about memory,

‘KIND OF RED’

This big, brassy farce with a heart opens as Rick plays his trumpet in the bathroom of his New York apartment (and does not play it well). The jazzman Rick — played by John DiAntonio, who also wrote the play — is a lovesick, loveable lug and master of malapropisms. He’s pining for his lost Rosalita, who is set to be married the next day, and yearning for his lost talent, which has escaped him mysteriously despite his yelling at his instrument to bring it back. His landlady (Anne F. Butler) bursts in to tell Rick he’s gotten a make-orbreak guest spot with the band at Birdland. She puts up a painting of St. Lucia on his wall and instructs him to pray to her to get his groove back. Overnight, through Rick’s television, Lucia herself emerges to

is straightforward. Complexly structured and often breaking the fourth wall, this perceptive drama forces you to think carefully about its tough and complicated subject. Some well-placed doses of comic relief help soften the emotional blows. It opens with Steve (Stuart Rider) directly addressing the audience, introducing the moment decades earlier when his younger self (Graham Ward) made the promise to a younger Helen (Kate Berry, who doubles as Helen’s daughter). We see the same scene at the opening of the second act. Only this time, it’s unclear whether Steve’s memory of it is accurate. Helen’s husband, Robert (Ron Clark), offers criticism and points out some details that are wrong, arguing that it couldn’t have happened that way. “Memories are fiction,” he declares. “Composed.” The young Steve and young Helen also have their say about how they think the memory should go. Throughout, Helen — played sensitively by Christy Brandt, in her 42nd season with the company — lets go of her memories. The audience sees this quite literally in what ends up being the play’s most devastating moments: the lights dim and she talks through a memory and holds a totem from it, then places it on a chandelier that rises to the ceiling into what she calls “the lovely land of no-memory.” In her lucid moments, she’s a spunky old broad — still lively with the hippie spirit of her youth — but she’s losing that self bit by bit. The ghost of Steve’s son, Peter (also played by Ward), emerges from Steve’s suitcase early on. A grim reaper of sorts, Peter haunts his father and also provides the bulk of the play’s laughs. In a confident and almost entirely silent performance by Ward, he stalks around the proceedings and into the audience urging Steve to kill Helen with over-the-top mimed gestured and written notes. Will he or won’t he? We’re left guessing right up until the bittersweet conclusion. atravers@aspentimes.com

RESOLUTION NO. No. 100-2016 RECITALS 1. The Pitkin County Open Space/Trails Program, approved by the electorate and established in 1990, has successfully acquired, protected, improved and maintained critical open space and trails properties of immeasurable and lasting value to the citizens of Pitkin County; and 2. The Open Space/Trails Board of Trustees and the Board of County Commissioners find that, in light of the overwhelming public interest in the mission of the Open Space/Trails Program, a property tax should continue to be levied for this purpose; and 3. Pursuant to Section 7 of Resolution No.098-2006, the property tax levy of up to 3.75 mills imposed to fund the Pitkin County Open Space/Trails Program terminates in 2019 (for collection in 2020); and 4. The Board of County Commissioners find that the continued acquisition and preservation of open space and trails pursuant to that Program will continue to have a significant beneficial impact on the future of Pitkin County and that the Board therefore has a duty to act as steward of such lands and trails for its present and future citizens; and 5. The acquisition and maintenance of significant open space areas and trails in and around Pitkin County will continue to be more competitive, time-consuming and expensive as a result of market factors; and 6. Additional public funds must therefore be secured which are earmarked for open space and trail acquisition, improvement, management and preservation; and 7. The Colorado County Home Rule Powers Act, at C.R.S. § 30-35-201, grants the following powers to the County: (29) Parks – recreational facilities – conservation easements. (a) To acquire, establish, and maintain such lands, or interests in land, within the county as in the judgment of the governing body may be necessary, suitable, or proper for boulevards, parkways, avenues, driveways, and roadways or for park or recreational purposes for the preservation or conservation of sites, scenes, open space, and vistas of scientific, historic, aesthetic, or other public interest. 8. The Board of County Commissioners of Pitkin County, Colorado, pursuant to Section 7.2.11 of the Pitkin County Home Rule Charter, “on its own motion, shall have the power to submit to a general or special election any proposed resolution or question to the vote of the people”; and 9. Sections 8.1.1, 8.1.5, and 9.1.1, of the Pitkin County Home Rule Charter provide as follows: 8.1.1 – Action to amend a charter shall be initiated by:… A resolution adopted by the Board of County Commissioners submitting the proposed amendment to the qualified electors. 8.1.5 – If a majority of the registered qualified electors voting thereon vote for a proposed amendment, the amendment shall be deemed approved… 9.1.1 – Limitation of Tax Levy: Except as provided in 9.1.3, no increase in the rate or levy of any tax imposed or collected by the County of Pitkin shall exceed the levy or rate of the tax imposed or levied during the calendar year 1979, and no new or additional tax may be levied or collected unless and until such increase, change or new or additional tax is submitted to and approved by a majority of those actually voting in an election on such issue and 10. Section 20 of Article X of the State Constitution requires voter approval of certain local government matters including the following: a. approval of any new tax, tax rate increase, mill levy above that for the prior year, or extension of an expiring tax, or a tax policy change directly causing a net tax revenue gain, and b. approval of property tax revenue changes pursuant to Section 20(7)(c); and 11. Pursuant to the State Constitution, statute and the Home Rule Charter, the Board of County Commissioners has determined to submit the question of reauthorizing the Open Space/Trails Program, and extending the

32

property tax mill levy to the registered qualified electors of Pitkin County at a general election to be held in the County on November 8, 2016. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of County Commissioners of Pitkin County, Colorado that: Section 1. BALLOT QUESTION The Board of County Commissioners of Pitkin County, Colorado does hereby submit to the electorate at the general election on November 8, 2016, the following question: REFERENDUM 1A REAUTHORIZING COUNTY OPEN SPACE AND TRAILS PROGRAM FUNDING FOR TWENTY YEARS – CHARTER AMENDMENT AND PROPERTY TAX LEVY SHALL THE EXISTING PITKIN COUNTY OPEN SPACE AND TRAILS PROPERTY TAX LEVY OF UP TO 3.75 MILLS BE EXTENDED FOR TWENTY YEARS, COMMENCING WITH THE TAX YEAR 2020 (COLLECTION TO BEGIN IN 2021) AND CONTINUING THEREAFTER THROUGH THE TAX YEAR 2039; AND SHALL PITKIN COUNTY BE ENTITLED TO COLLECT, RETAIN, AND SPEND ON BEHALF OF THE OPEN SPACE AND TRAILS PROGRAM THE FULL REVENUES FROM THE PROPERTY TAX LEVY OF UP TO 3.75 MILLS REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE ANNUAL REVENUES FROM SUCH LEVY EXCEED THE REVENUE LIMITATIONS CONTAINED IN THE COUNTY HOME RULE CHARTER, STATE LAW OR THE STATE CONSTITUTION; AND SHALL ARTICLE XIII OF THE PITKIN COUNTY HOME RULE CHARTER BE AMENDED TO REAUTHORIZE AND AUGMENT THE OPEN SPACE AND TRAILS PROGRAM IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF RESOLUTION 100-2016?

BOOK REVIEW

‘HOT START’ FOR A FICTIONAL ACTION HERO, Cordell Logan, a former military assassin now scraping out a living as a flying instructor in Southern California, is a real softie. He never stopped pining for Savannah, the love of his life, and has been inconsolable since his actions in “Voodoo Ridge” inadvertently led to her death. He spoils his cat, Kiddiot, who returns his affections by alternately clawing and ignoring him. He’s striving — and largely failing — to find serenity as a Buddhist. And he dotes on Mrs. Schmulowitz, his ancient busybody of a landlady, whose health problems provide an emotional subplot for “Hot Start,” the fifth novel in this fine series. The main story line gets rolling when a strident animal rights

advocate is arrested for gunning down an international big game hunter and his wife at their luxurious California estate. The accused is a distant relative of Savannah’s father, who uses Logan’s guilt to persuade him to look into the matter. But soon, the case takes several surprising turns, and Logan finds himself tangling with the police, an international call-girl ring, a corrupt congressman, the White House and a vicious Czech crime boss who wants Logan taken off the board. David Freed is unusually well equipped to tell such tales. He won a Pulitzer Prize covering the police for the Los Angeles Times, covered war in Kuwait and Iraq, worked for a government security agency, holds a security clearance from the
