Measure rankles school board Finance bill could hit county taxpayers hard By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com The Douglas County School Board long has urged a revision of the state’s school funding formula. That wish is now coming to fruition, but not in the way members had hoped. Board member Kevin Larsen said the current proposal in the Colorado General Assembly only would increase the disparity among districts, and make matters much worse for DCSD students and taxpayers. “The cure is worse than the sickness,” Larsen said. “When we further compare that to the taxes that are going to be paid, I think people are going to be astounded. The net for us would always be to put more into the state than we’re getting back.” The Democratic-controlled Colorado Senate apLarsen proved the bill April 2 on a party-line vote. If Senate Bill 213 passes the General Assembly, the state’s voters would then be asked to approve an income-tax increase of about $1 billion to fund the plan. Therein lies the rub. While DCSD would get more funding under the changes to the base calculations, Douglas County’s high per-capita income means taxpayers here Board continues on Page 8

Wildfire simulation prepares for worst Multiple agencies come together for incident training By Ryan Boldrey

rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com A fire covers more than 100 acres in the Highlands Ranch Backcountry Wilderness Area in an hour’s time. Littleton and South Metro Fire are on the scene and the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office already has people manning a command post. More agencies are waiting in the wings, and just like in real time, they arrive one by one, as Jeff Case, public works director for the Highlands Ranch Metro District, stands by with maps depicting where wells are and access points to fight the fire. “We know how to get around back there,” Case says, “and we can answer questions as to whether water can be available at particular locations. In the event of a major fire we can help provide organized perimeter

control and help support the first responders so they can deal with more important issues.” Case’s job, and those of the Metro District park rangers, are a small sampling of the necessary roles when multiple jurisdictions come together to fight a regional disaster such as a wildland fire. It’s incident training drills such as the one hosted April 3 by the Douglas County Office of Emergency Management that allow neighboring firefighters, police officers and other emergency responders the opportunity to get to know one another and learn each other’s strengths so they are better prepared when the real thing hits. There were 65 officers and representatives from a dozen agencies present April 3, including firefighters from South Metro, Littleton, Larkspur, Castle Rock, Colorado Springs and Franktown, and officers from the Parker Police Department and Douglas County Sheriff’s Office. “It gets complicated, but unfortunately these wildfires are complicated,” said Tim Johnson, director of emergency manage-

ment for Douglas County. “We have to make sure we are deploying assets at the right time and making the right decisions. “We try to bring in a lot of different jurisdictions and do a multi-agency event, because in the real world when we have a big event, they are all going to be there. It’s a good opportunity for people to meet each other and work with each other, so that the first time they are meeting is not in a real event.” Events like these pay dividends too, as one year after inviting the Colorado Springs Fire Department to join the annual Douglas County event, CSFD sent a task force to assist with the 2011 Burning Tree Fire east of Franktown — an area outside firefighters were also familiar with because of a similar field exercise. “Part of where that fire started, we had performed an exercise there two years before,” said Larkspur Fire Chief Jamey Bumgarner. “I think the biggest thing with events like this is practicing together in a non-threatening situation without smoke in the air.”

Don’t let FHA regulations lead to rush, lender says By Ryan Boldrey

rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com Changes by the Federal Housing Authority that went into effect April 1 may motivate some buyers to speed up the process if they are considering an FHA loan. Yet while many homebuyers are scrambling to take advantage of current regulations, as well as historical low interest rates and prices that could rise, Jim Ruth, senior loan officer with First Cal Colorado, cautions buyers to take their time. “People should be buying because they want to buy a house,” Ruth said. “A lot of people sometimes will rush it, and they might buy something they don’t really want. When people are coming up on deadlines, such as for the $8,000 tax credit a couple years ago, I had people buying just so they could get that credit.” One of the factors that Ruth sees is that new FHA regulations dictate that homebuyers not under contract by June 3 will Housing continues on Page 9

Denver Bronco stands tall for kids You don’t want to be a running back, or a slot receiver who has the audacity to enter the area of the gridiron that Denver Broncos linebacker Wesley Woodyard patrols. But if you’re a kid who lacks Peyton Manning-like protection from life’s hard knocks, don’t worry. Wesley’s got your back. Woodyard paid a visit to the state Capitol last week to show his support for a legislative resolution that designates April as Child Abuse Awareness Month. The resolution, which was adopted by the General Assembly, calls upon “all citizens to educate themselves on how they can be the one to make a difference in the life of a child, and prevent child abuse and neglect.” Woodyard is no stranger to causes involving children. He often advocates on behalf of CASA — Court Appointed Special Advocates for children — and for his own charity, 16 Ways, which benefits kids from underprivileged backgrounds. “To me, it’s important to step up and be a part of the community,” Woodyard said in a recent interview with Colorado Community Media. “It only takes one person to make a difference in a child’s life. And when you’ve been given the platform that I’ve been given, it’s important to take advantage of it.” State Sen. Linda Newell, D-Littleton, a sponsor of the resolution, is involved in many child welfare-related issues at the

Legislature. She said that awareness of these types of causes is heightened whenever community members of Woodyard’s stature are involved. “Sometimes it’s the celebrity or somebody who can draw the attention of the community,” Newell said. “And he has been a great addition to the child abuse prevention community because he’s drawing in people who are sometimes not necessarily involved.” About the only thing that rivals Woodyard’s impact in the community is his play on the field — especially on the heels of his performance last season. Woodyard, 26, a Broncos team captain, had a breakout season at weak-side linebacker. He had career numbers in categories that included tackles, sacks and interceptions. But then there’s the way the season ended. As a lifelong Broncos fan, I can honestly say that I still haven’t gotten over January’s playoff loss to the Baltimore Ravens. I remember collapsing on my couch after the game, like my heart had just been ripped

out of my chest, straight out of some Aztec sacrifice ritual. Seriously, my voicemail and textmessage inbox was flooded that night with messages from concerned friends who were making sure that I hadn’t taken a leap from the top of downtown’s Republic Plaza. So, yes, it was a painful loss, to say the least — and that goes for the players, too. “It’s one of those things that I don’t think you get over,” Woodyard said. “But it motivates me. It motivates my teammates.” If the Broncos are going to advance further in the playoffs this season, they’re gonna have to do it without a key member of their defense. Pass rusher Elvis Dumervil, a fan favorite in the Mile City High since 2006, will be in a Ravens uniform this season, following a bizarre episode from last month that involved a signed, $8 million contract not being sent to the NFL in time for the league’s deadline. OK, so “bizarre” doesn’t do the incident justice. I mean, who transmits a document literally worth millions of dollars via a piece of machinery that gets less use out of it than a Donkey Kong Atari video game? What, carrier pigeons weren’t available? But, I digress. “I’m gonna miss Doom,” Woodyard said of Dumervil. “Doom was a role model to me. He taught me to be a man on and off the field. His leadership and play will be missed. “I talked to him the other day and I told him that I hope he breaks the sack record

in Baltimore, but not against us.” But there are plenty of things for Broncos fans to be excited about this season. Among them will be having another guy named Wes to cheer for on game days. “Oh, we’re very excited,” Woodyard said of the addition of Wes Welker to the Broncos receiving corps. “He’s an extreme competitor and we’re so happy to have him on board.” Not only is it gonna be nice to have the former New England Patriots standout on our team, Broncos players are just as thrilled about not having to defend against him. “Absolutely,” Woodyard said, laughing. “I know (Broncos cornerback) Chris Harris is excited about that. Those guys had some battles.” Woodyard recognizes that he and the Broncos did a lot of good on the field last season. But don’t think for a second that he doesn’t want to accomplish bigger and better things. “When you think you’ve arrived, that’s when you hit bottom,” he said. “It was a good season, but I could have done so much more. I’m grateful to have the opportunity to be where I am, but I’m looking forward to this season.” Vic Vela is the legislative reporter for Colorado Community Media.

Local man blows whistle in Atlanta Highlands Ranch officiates in his fourth Final Four

rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com As the NCAA men’s basketball tournament whittled itself down from 68 teams to the Final Four, the players weren’t the only ones advancing from round to round. Officials were also judged on their performances. And for the fourth time in his 20-year career officiating Division I college basketball, Highlands Ranch resident Randy McCall made it all the way to the Final Four. McCall’s officiating tenure began as a college student at the University of Northern Colorado when he started picking up area high school games. After graduation, he made the gradual transition to lower-tier collegiate ball and in 1992 began blowing his whistle at the Division I level. And for those who watched the Michigan-Syracuse semifinal game April 6, it was McCall who made the controversial charging call against the Orange with just less than two minutes to play that helped the Wolverines cement their victory. The former Cherry Creek High School athletic director said he watched the play multiple times after the game, and is more than confident he made the right call. “Certainly, as referees, if we can make it through a game without a play like that where we have to make a boom-boom ruling, it makes it easier for everybody,” he said. “Right, wrong, indifferent, at the end of

lot of things that lead to one team winning.’ Randy McCall

Highlands Ranch resident Randy McCall officiated the Syracuse-Michigan April 6 at the NCAA Final Four in Atlanta. Courtesy photo the day I had a decision to make. It was a hard play and it had an influence on the outcome. That’s just the way it is. “I’ve had a lot of people say it was a great call, and I’ve had a lot say it was a `hard call to make’ which in referee terms means they would have called it different. … There are tough plays like that in every game but when it happens late in the game the perceived impact is a bit more magnified. I’m sure there are a lot of people who would like to crucify me for that one play, but there are a lot of people who say I got it right.” McCall isn’t losing any sleep over it, that’s

for sure, and said that officials always have a good feeling of whether they got the game right, and in this case, he said they did. “I haven’t been in a game where any of us have been perfect yet,” he said. “The reality of it is there’s an accumulation of a lot of things that lead to one team winning.” What McCall is most concerned with is fairness, and he will be the first to admit that can be one of the biggest challenges in a game where three men are working together and none see exactly what the others are seeing and calling.

“You have a good idea, but never know for sure. It’s a challenge,” he said. “It’s not like being a baseball umpire where you are going to sit back there and you know the guy is going to throw a ball or a strike. Our game is so fast, and so unpredictable.” McCall, who referees in the Mountain West, Pac-12, Western Athletic Conference and Missouri Valley Conference during the season, said it’s a bit of an affirmation to advance through the rounds and be selected for the Final Four, but it isn’t everything. “Anyone who hangs their hat on whether they are moved on to the second weekend or the Final Four, if that’s all they are going to judge their year by, I think they’re nuts,” he said. “There are so many really good referees out there.” Other Final Four games McCall has done include the 2004 National Championship game between Connecticut and Georgia Tech, the 2005 semifinal between Michigan State and North Carolina and the 2010 semifinal between Duke and West Virginia.

SHERIFF’S REPORT Check out our website for Great Offers

Hit-run at drive-thru

FREE Estimages & Inspections

At 3:40 a.m. March 27, the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office responded to the Highlands Ranch McDonald’s in the 9200 block of South Broadway for a hit-and-run that took place in the drive-thru lane following a verbal altercation between customers. According to the victim, the driver of a gold Toyota 4Runner that was in front of him in line and at the window stuck his head out the window of his Toyota and started yelling obscenities at him. Not knowing why the other driver was upset, the victim pulled up alongside him and asked him what was up and the driver of the Toyota told him to get out of his vehicle so he could kick his “butt.” The Toyota pulled around and then smashed into the other vehicle, doing $2,000 of body damage before the driver left with his middle finger waving in the air. The McDonald’s employee working the window confirmed the story and said the driver of the Toyota appeared drunk and had ordered French fries but drove off before picking up his order. The cameras did not record the Toyota’s plate number.

TriZetto opens headquarters in county Fast-growing health-care, IT company brings jobs By Ryan Boldrey

rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com The economic foundation of Douglas County got a little thicker as TriZetto opened the doors to its new world headquarters April 2, bringing 800 employees with them to the Meridian International Business Center. The 16-year-old health-care IT firm has already added 150 local jobs since it broke ground on the four-story, 168,000-square-foot building just under a year ago. “We’re growing fast and should be close to 1,100 strong by the end of the year,” said CEO Trace Devanny. “The fact that we’ve outgrown the facility already is a good problem to have.” The company, which had just 380 employees working in Colorado when Devanny started in 2010, expects to lease more space in the office park to house an additional 200 employees by year’s end. Devanny said it could create as many as 400 additional local jobs over the next four years, possibly prompting the company to break ground on another building across the street from its new offices on Maroon Circle. TriZetto was formerly headquartered in Newport Beach, Calif., and as it started to move some of its operations to Colorado in 2007, it opened numerous offices in Greenwood Village, all of which are consolidating under the new roof in Meridian. The company reaches more than 21,000 physician practices and has 3,600 employees with offices across the globe.

Colorado competed against Missouri, New Jersey and Arizona for the company, and Devanny said Colorado’s pro-business atmosphere made all the difference. “This is not just a strong addition to Douglas County and to metropolitan Denver, but it really is to Colorado,” Gov. John Hickenlooper said at the ribbon-cutting event. “Each success leads to another. It’s companies like TriZetto that are building foundations for other companies and other growth.” Hickenlooper added that 10,800 payroll jobs were added in Colorado in February alone, helping cut the state’s unemployment rate to close to 7 percent. “Douglas County, in less than a year, has 6,300 new jobs,” County Commissioner Jill Repella said after the ribbon-

cutting. “We are creating a very, very fertile business environment in Douglas County, and we’ve got more coming.” Repella attributes some of Douglas’ success to the ability of “the unrecognized heroes” of the county’s building division staff who help get businesses such as TriZetto into their locations on schedule with timely permitting and inspections. “We want businesses to be able to open their doors fast so they can get in and do business.” she said. “That’s what we do to help lay that economic foundation.” Other new businesses coming into the county soon include Visa, with 406 new jobs, and Children’s Hospital, with 300 employees, both in Highlands Ranch, and Redwood Trust, which is bringing 550 new local jobs, in Lone Tree.

Obama promotes gun control in Denver visit President praises state legislators for new laws By Vic Vela

vvela@ourcoloradonews.com President Barack Obama talked about gun violence during a speech in Denver on April 3, while lauding recent gun-control measures that have been signed into state law, and touting Colorado as being “a model of what’s possible” at the national level. The president’s remarks at the Denver Police Academy highlighted gun laws that soon will go into effect in the state, including those that institute universal background checks on gun sales and place limits on high-capacity ammunition magazines. Citing recent massacres like last year’s shootings in Aurora and Connecticut, Obama said it’s now time for Congress to take up similar gun measures for implementation at the national level. “Every day that we wait to do something about it, even more of our fellow citizens are stolen from our lives by a bullet from a gun,” Obama said. In Colorado, gun-control bills have dominated headlines this legislative session. So far, Gov. John Hickenlooper has signed three bills that have passed the Democratic-controlled General Assembly. Republicans scoff that the gun measures are nothing but “feel-good” efforts that only hinder law-abiding citizens’ ability to obtain guns, while doing nothing to get the weapons out of the hands of criminals. Obama’s visit was met with some protests outside the police academy. And, earlier in the day, several Colorado sheriffs

President Barack Obama addresses police officers and other audience members during a speech at the Denver Police Academy on April 3. During his remarks, the president touted recent gun-control measures that have been passed by the Colorado General Assembly. Photo by Vic Vela held a press event, denouncing further guncontrol efforts. But Obama sees value in passing gun measures. He said Congress needs to address the loopholes in the current national background-check system for gun purchases, as Colorado legislators have done with recent legislation here. Obama said that if a person wants to buy a gun, “you should at least have to go through a background check to show that

you’re not a criminal, or someone legally prohibited from buying one.” The president cited statistics that indicate background checks often do keep guns out of the hands of dangerous people. “So, this does work,” he said. “And, by the way, if you’re selling a gun, wouldn’t you want to know who you’re selling it to? Wouldn’t you want in your conscience to know that the person you’re selling to isn’t going to commit a crime?”

Obama also said high-capacity ammunition magazines have no place in our communities. “I don’t believe that weapons designed for theaters of war have a place in movie theaters,” he said to applause. “Most Americans agree with that.” The president acknowledged the polarizing nature that surrounds the gun-control debate. He said Colorado is a state where hunting is a tradition, and where guns are “handed down from generation to generation.” “And they treat gun ownership with reverence and respect,” he said. At the same time, Obama said it’s important for people to understand where the other side is coming from on these issues. “There doesn’t have to be a conflict between protecting our citizens and protecting our Second Amendment rights,” the president said. Among those who attended the speech were Hickenlooper and U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder. The two took part in a round-table discussion on gun issues that involved Obama, prior to the president’s speech. Others taking part in the discussion were police and Colorado citizens whose lives have been affected by gun violence. Several state legislators also were attendance, including Rep. Rhonda Fields, D-Aurora. Fields — whose son was shot to death in 2005 and who sponsored some of the state’s gun legislation — said she felt that her work has been validated by Obama’s trip. “I feel really good about what we did here in the state of Colorado,” Fields told reporters. “And I think the rest of the nation should follow suit.”

Weaver shares thoughts on gun issues with county residents Sheriff doesn’t see benefit in ‘restrictive’ new laws By Ryan Boldrey

rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com More than a dozen Colorado sheriffs gathered in Denver in opposition to Colorado’s new gun restrictions at the same time President Barack Obama spoke at the Den-

ver Police Academy in favor of the new laws. The group of sheriffs, which included Elbert County’s Shayne Heap and was scheduled to include Douglas County’s David Weaver, gathered April 3 at Thomas Memorial Park, within a mile of the president. While Weaver missed the event for personal reasons, he issued an open letter to citizens of Douglas County two days later, outlining his feelings on the laws. “I believe that more restrictive gun laws

for law-abiding citizens will not have any positive effect on public safety,” he said in his letter. “They will not prevent another massacre in a theater nor another mass murder in a school.” Weaver pointed to both the Aurora theater massacre and the Newtown elementary school shooting and addressed the fact that both of the killers had been able to purchase or steal guns despite concerns about the state of their mental health. “The additional background checks still

do not evaluate or validate the buyer’s mental health,” Weaver said, adding that the new measures would be difficult if not impossible to enforce. “Tighter gun laws will not prevent criminals from getting guns,” he said. “The laws will only make it harder for law-abiding citizens to defend themselves.” Weaver closed his letter by saying that he will not disregard the new laws, but he also will not take any “radical steps” such as “ordering gun magazine roundups.”

Bill would extend rarely used work program Plan allows partial benefits for employees with reduced hours By Vic Vela

vvela@ourcoloradonews.com State lawmakers have voted to renew a rarely used program that gives struggling businesses an alternative to laying off employees. Senate Bill 157, which has passed both chambers of the Democratic-controlled General Assembly on party-line votes, would extend the Colorado Work Share Program indefinitely. The program gives businesses the opportunity to keep their workers at reduced hours, rather than laying them off altogether. Under the program, which businesses can enter into on a voluntary basis, employees receive prorated unemployment benefits to compensate for the loss of hours. Workers can receive up to 26 weeks of prorated unemployment benefits through Colorado Work Share, under recent federal changes made to the program.

The program receives federal money for reimbursement, rather than adversely affecting the state’s Unemployment Insurance Fund. Rep. Tracy Kraft-Tharp, D-Arvada, a House sponsor of the bill, said the program allows businesses that are going through a “temporary tough time” to keep skilled workers, instead of losing them. Kraft-Tharp said in a recent interview that the program helps companies like Vestas Wind Systems, which has reduced employees’ hours at their Brighton, Pueblo and Windsor wind-power factories. “This is a pretty specialized field,” she said. “We don’t want to lose those people, or have them move away.” The Work Share program, which was put in place in 2010, and is administered under the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment, had to be taken up again by the General Assembly because it is scheduled to sunset in July. The bill keeps the program going, while making adjustments to keep it in line with federal guidelines. Kraft-Tharp acknowledges that the program isn’t well-known, and that only a handful of Colorado businesses are taking advantage of it. But she expects that to change soon.

“There was no money for Department of Labor staff time when it passed in 2010, so the state has not been able to promote this,” she said. “But, with the new changes, we can access federal grants, so we can allocate staff time to support it.” Republicans are opposed to the continuation of the program. The bill passed the Senate without any GOP support in March, and again in the House on April 2. Rep. Brian DelGrosso, R-Loveland, said during a recent debate on the House floor that businesses that pay into the state’s un-

employment insurance trust fund could essentially end up paying the wages for competitors’ workers, even though the workers are still employed there. “So, potentially you can have a competitor down the street paying for the employees of a fellow competitor somewhere else in town,” DelGrosso said. But Kraft-Tharp sees value in the program. “The bottom line is, if you’re going to be laid off … and if we can help you, we’re going to help you,” she said. “It’s about keeping people employed and keeping their paychecks coming home.”

Think tank linked to survey on schools Independence Institute will release results By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com The Independence Institute helped craft and implement a recent automated phone survey on Douglas County School District issues. Ben DeGrow, a senior policy analyst with the Denver-based think tank, said the institute will release survey results when they are available. The Independence Institute’s Education Policy Center promotes school choice, parental involvement and educational vouchers, and has a keen interest in Douglas County’s education reform efforts. That’s why it’s helping to conduct the survey, DeGrow said. “I think it basically comes down to Douglas County being at the forefront of school

choice, not just school choice but lots of education innovation and reform debates,” he said. “We’d like to gauge opinions at the grassroots level just to understand what kind of support there is for these different education policies.” DeGrow said he has no knowledge of other parties that may be involved in the survey. DCSD spokeswoman Cinamon Watson said she did not know who was conducting it and only learned about the survey through Facebook posts. In 2010, DeGrow and Education Policy Center director Pam Benigno served on the Douglas County School Choice Task Force. In 2011, DeGrow became chairman of the Choice Scholarship School that helped implement the controversial voucher program. The program was challenged in court, and was recently upheld by the Colorado Court of Appeals. A recording of the survey includes an array of questions about the school board, this November’s board elections, groups

that have criticized the board, the failed 2012 teachers’ union negotiations, the proposed teacher pay-for-performance program and the voucher program. “Who do you think has the best interest of Douglas County schoolchildren at heart?” the recorded voice asks. “The Douglas County Federation, also known as the teachers union, or the Douglas County board of education?” Among the questions in the survey: • “Thinking now about the Douglas County School Board and local education issues, do you have a favorable or unfavorable opinion of the Douglas County School Board?” • “Among the following list of characteristics, please tell me which one you are looking for in a school board candidate: A charter school-oriented candidate? A reform-oriented candidate? A union-oriented candidate?” • “Thinking some more now about teachers in Douglas County, please tell me

if you agree or disagree with the following statement: Teachers who belong to a union are more effective, better qualified and better trained than teachers that do not belong to a union.” • “As you may know, the Colorado Court of Appeals recently ruled the Douglas County pilot program is constitutional. The (voucher program) provides 500 Douglas county students with scholarships that parents can use on a qualified private partner school of their choice. Knowing this, do you agree or disagree with the court’s ruling the Choice Scholarship Program is constitutional?” The survey also asks respondents their opinion of the Independence Institute. The district’s long-held collective bargaining agreement with the teachers’ union expired in 2012 after extensive and ultimately fruitless negotiations. Seats belonging to four of the seven current board members expire in November 2013.

DCSD crew earns red ribbon in Capitol cook-off By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com

By Jane Reuter

Douglas County School District’s lead Nutrition Services employees earned second place and impressed state legislators with their cooking talents in March during the annual Colorado Ag Day at the state Capitol. The annual event spotlights state agriculture by partnering a dozen chefs with ranchers and legislators to create Colorado-born dishes. Judges awarded DCSD’s braised beef short ribs the red ribbon in the Farm-toFork cook-off. “It’s fun to show off that school lunch is cool,” DCSD executive chef Jason Morse said. “It’s not mystery meat anymore.” Colorado Agriculture Secretary John Salazar teamed with Morse and catering manager Kim Wolfrum to serve the ribs in the rotunda. “We served easily 500 off of our table alone,” Morse said. “There was a line the entire day.” Prep work began two days before the downtown Denver event in DCSD’s catering kitchen at Douglas County High School. Ralston Valley Beef donated the meat, and the DCSD team took it from there. “Because we couldn’t have open flames and cook inside the Capitol rotunda, we had to bring everything with us,” he said. “We seasoned the meat, rubbed the beef and let it sit, then came in

Douglas County Board of Education President John Carson is encouraged by the recent Indiana Supreme Court decision to uphold that state’s voucher program. In a unanimous March 26 decision, the court ruled Indiana state school funds Carson can be used to finance private school tuition. The decision likely ends a case started in 2011. More than 9,000 students are enrolled in Indiana’s program, which shares with Douglas County the name “Choice Scholarship Program.” The Colorado Court of Appeals in February reversed a lower court decision and ruled the Douglas County School District’s voucher program did not violate the state constitution. Opponents of the voucher program intend to appeal the case to the Colorado Supreme Court. DCSD implemented the

The morning of, we finished the braise, removed it from the bone, hand-shredded the meat, loaded our cars up and headed down.” Morse, who sits on the Colorado Chefs Association board of directors, described it as “an amazing day.” “As an industry leader, I think it’s wonderful to be involved in it,” he said. “As a school district chef, it gains us so much exposure. My goal has always been to put us on the map for school lunch.” While Morse won’t share all the ingredients that went into the awardwinning ribs, he will reveal the one he thinks is key to DCSD Nutrition Services’ overall success. “We’re not just putting things on trays and sending them out,” he said. “When Kim and I cook, you can taste the love in our food. That translates absolutely through to the cooking.”

pilot Choice Scholarship Program, allowing parents to use a portion of public school funds toward private school tuition, in March 2011 before the lower court issued an injunction stopping it in August 2011. As in the Douglas County case, opponents in Indiana argued that the program took money from public schools to instead benefit primarily religious schools. A key difference, however, is that eligibility for participation in Indiana’s program is income-dependent, and aimed at poor and middle-class families. DCSD’s has no income requirements. Nevertheless, Carson sees it as a potential harbinger for the future of DCSD’s program. “I will note that many of the issues in that case were very similar to the ones in the Colorado case,” he said, pointing to religious issues and the fact that parents — not school districts — directly pay the private-school tuition. That fact was paramount in the Indiana decision, which ruled parents were the primary beneficiaries of the program, and not religious schools. “The voucher program does not directly fund religious activities because no funds may be dispersed to any programeligible school without the private, independent selection by the parents of a program-eligible student,” according to the Indiana Supreme Court ruling. “Fortunately, the Indiana

Supreme Court has ruled the program is constitutional there,” Carson said. “I think it’s now safe to say Indiana has now established itself as the leading state in the country, possibly alongside the state of Wisconsin, in promoting school choice.” Douglas County voucher opponent Anne Kleinkopf, director of plaintiff Taxpayers for Public Education, said she is not concerned about the Indiana decision. “We remain confident that regardless of what happened in Indiana, the Douglas County voucher program still violates important provisions of the Colorado constitution,” she said. It also violates the Colorado Public School Finance Act, Kleinkopf said, most notably “the requirement that public school monies only be used for public schools.” In the Indiana ruling, the court noted the decision was not a judgment on the program’s merits, but its constitutionality. “We emphasize that the issues before this Court do not include the public policy merits of the school voucher program,” the ruling states. “Whether the Indiana program is wise educational or public policy is not a consideration germane to the narrow issues of Indiana constitutional law that are before us. Our individual policy preferences are not relevant.”

would be hit hard by the proposed incometax increase. “The candy that’s going to be used to entice people here is that everyone’s funding is going to go up (under the new formula),” Larsen said. Supporters maintain the change is long overdue. The state’s Public School Finance Act last was updated in 1994. “It was crafted before any of us used Internet, email, or cell phones,” said Sen. Mike Johnston, D-Denver, sponsor of the bill. “Within the past five years, K-12 education suffered nearly $2.5 billion in cuts. Now

is the time to reinvest and achieve greater adequacy, equity, and sustainability in our education system.” As proposed, it would bring an additional $43 million to DCSD, but about $16 million of that would go to fund additional early childhood education. “The cost to the taxpayers to get that $43 million, through a new change in incometax rate, would be in our estimation probably $95 (million) to $100 million,” Larsen said. “This is going to be essentially a 20 percent increase in income taxes.” The plan also would give more money to districts with high concentrations of low-

income students and English-language learners. Douglas County has relatively few students who fall into those categories. “Douglas County provides 9.5 percent of the state’s income tax collection,” Larsen said. “We have 7.5 percent of the state’s kids and receive about 6¾ percent of the state’s funding. There’s no way this is an adequate return and justifiable for the kids in our district.” The potential increase in income taxes also dims the chance voters would approve a future ballot issue on local education funding, Larsen said. “I think we’re taking a first step in a

worse direction before really circling back,” he said. “We do need to address school finance. I think we need to think in a more creative way.” Douglas County School Board members see some things they like about the plan. It would change the way student enrollment is calculated from a one-day count to an average annual number of students. The count is vital because it helps determine a school’s funding levels. “I do admire the bill’s effort to get rid of this anachronistic count-based system,” board member Craig Richardson said. “This bill does go a long way to improving that.” OCTOBER APRIL SPECIAL SPECIAL

s Scams targeting seniors on rise Sheriff ’s office warns of three popular schemes

wing nion betelong

CourtBy Ryan Boldrey uglasrboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com . The uglas With springtime comes warmer weather, par-longer days, and an increase in the number rtnerof scams. From the sweetheart swindle to o youthe utility impostor to the home or driveg theway repair scam, each one is targeted at stitu-vulnerable seniors. “We’ve seen all of these over the past theircouple years, and we want to get the message out early this year as a preventative bar-measure,” said Deputy Chad Teller, spokesnionman for the Douglas County Sheriff’s Ofulti-fice. “They are already starting to pop up in El Paso County, and it is just a matter of cur-time before they start happening here.” mber Of the three senior scams that the sheriff’s office wants to get on people’s radar, the most common is the utility impostor scam, in which one or two men will knock on a door and say they are from the city or the water, electric, or cable company. The men will attempt to convince the resident that they need to go into the base-

ment or backyard and that they need to test the water pressure or electricity. They will most likely say that company regulations don’t allow them to go into the basement unaccompanied, and once down there will have the resident turn switches off and on, run water or bang pipes, while their accomplice searches the house for valuables. Teller points out that legitimate utility company employees will always wear a uniform and have official identification, and impostors may try to look official. “Many impostors will have a homemade, laminated badge that you could confuse for proper ID at a quick glance,” Teller said. “They may also wear work clothes, orange traffic vests or hard hats. All of this is designed to make you think they are official. “Don’t let them in your house and don’t let them lure you out of yours. If in doubt, ask them to wait outside your locked front door while you call the utility company or the police to verify who they are. A legitimate utility company employee will welcome your checking them out, while an impostor won’t hang around.”

Volunteer opportunities abound Highlands Ranch groups hold signups at fair By Ryan Boldrey

rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com April is National Volunteer Month, and in Highlands Ranch there is no shortage of opportunities to pitch in. There may be no bigger chance to volunteer than at the fifth annual Highlands Ranch Community Association Volunteer Fair, coming up April 24. The free fair has more than doubled in size since its first year in 2009, and will have 40 nonprofit organizations on hand, each looking to sign up volunteers. Last year more than 300 future volunteers showed at the event. Whether it is signing up to guide people on tours for the Denver Botanic Gardens, help out with horses at Zuma’s Rescue Ranch, volunteer for the American Cancer Society or work at the Women’s Crisis and Outreach Center, HRCA spokeswoman Jamie Noebel points out there is something for just about everybody. “I can’t imagine someone would not be able to find a way to volunteer with one of these organizations because the list is just so diverse,” she said. “It’s pretty awesome.” The fair will take place from 5-7 p.m. April 24 at Southridge Recreation Center, 4800 McArthur Ranch Road in Highlands Ranch, and most organizations will be signing up volunteers on the spot. To see a complete list of nonprofits, go to www.hrcaonline.org. For those looking for a short-term, yet still impactful, commitment, the HRCA is also partnering with Cherry Hills Commu-

nity Church from 1-3 p.m. May 5 for the fourth annual Love in Action Event, held around Highlands Ranch, Castle Rock and Sedalia. The event offers opportunities to do everything from working in yards for those in need, beautifying parks and schools, doing handyman work and offering electronic recycling. “We know what our community needs on a lot of different levels, and the church helps get a lot of people out,” Noebel said, “from walking the streets and picking up trash to doing prayer walking. It’s all about community. It’s an amazing day.” To register for the event go to http:// chcc.org/love_in_action.aspx.

Volunteer with the Metro District

People are invited to gather at Dad Clark Park, Falcon Park and Paintbrush Park from 9 a.m.-noon on April 20 for the eighth annual Highlands Ranch Metro District Renew the Ranch, where they will be given trash bags to clean up open space. The event drew 100 participants last year and has added a geocache aspect this year, so people can search for treasures while doing the community a service. For other volunteer opportunities through the Metro District, one can refer to the 2013 volunteer guide, posted at www. highlandsranch.org. There will also be a wetland planting on April 17, and another one sometime in early May, in which 25 or more volunteers will assist in protecting storm water areas. To participate in any of the above Metro District projects, please contact Stacy Simonet at 720-240-4909 or ssimonet@highlandsranch.org. The Metro District will also have representatives present at the HRCA Volunteer Fair.

Housing: Mortgage insurance adds to costs Housing continues from Page 1

have to pay mortgage interest for the life of the loan, instead of having it drop off once the amount owed is down to 78 percent of the original loan amount. FHA loans are very tempting now, Ruth said, coming in about a half-point lower than conventional loans and hovering around 3.3 percent to 3.5 percent, but paying mortgage insurance for 30 years can add $40,000 in cost to a $200,000 home over the life of the loan. “There are a lot of other programs available out there,” Ruth said. “Don’t panic over the changes. It’s important to sit down with your lender about six months before you buy and make sure you are aware of all your options and that your credit is in order. “If you’re credit isn’t good, it may be able to fixed in as little as six months to a year.” The Colorado Housing Finance Authority, which First Cal Colorado is affiliated with, has multiple programs available. One of those, the Mortgage Credit Certificate

program, is designed for one- or two-person households making less than $79,300, or three-person households making less than $91,100, who haven’t owned a home in the last three years. The certificate, which is awarded following a class attended by the buyer, allows those purchasing a house greater than $150,000 to receive 20 percent of their interest tax deduction in the form of a credit — an average annual rebate of at least $1,500. Another program, the CHFA Advantage, is for people who have a 700 credit score or better. It requires them to pay just 3 percent down and, at a slightly higher rate of 4.125 percent, carries no mortgage insurance requirements at all, saving hundreds a month. “Not all mortgage companies offer CHFA,” Ruth said. “It’s important to ask questions and do some homework before choosing a lender. It may not be the most exciting part about buying a house, but it’s probably the most important.”

pening with great frequency is the driveway sealing or home repair scam, in which one or two men in a truck stop and offer to seal one’s driveway, fix the roof or do other repairs at an unusually low price because they have been working in the area and have leftover materials available to do the job. A red flag with this scam is that the con artists will typically say the job will be cheaper if you pay cash. Teller said it’s often done poorly and costs more than they say at the outset, and that the scammers will watch where you go to get your cash and often make a return visit, sometimes in the form of a utility scam, to get more money. Another thing to watch for is children tagging along with the worker. They may be trained to ask for a drink or to use the bathroom and then rummage through the house looking for valuables or cash. “The bottom line is if something looks suspicious and seems too good to be true, it most likely is,” Teller said.

victim, typically an older single male, is approached somewhere in public — such as a supermarket parking lot — by a younger, attractive female. The scammer will attempt to flatter the victim, win him over, arrange a second meeting, and lay the foundation for a relationship. Once the relationship begins, the scammer will ask the victim for money to start a business or pay medical bills, and in some cases move in and take over financial affairs. “The attention from this younger woman is great while it is happening,” Teller said, “but as soon as your credit cards are charged to the max and your money is completely gone, so are they. You will be left lonely and broke.” Teller said it is wise to be aware of ulterior motives when someone tries to strike up a relationship out of nowhere and to ask a trusted friend or adviser their honest opinion of what is happening if you are getting an undue amount of attention. According to the National Association of Adult Protective Services Administrators, financial exploitation of the elderly is the fastest-rising category of crime in the U.S.

N Protecting Your Home from Wildfires

Once again an early fire season is upon us as drought conditions have resulted in low moisture levels in the vegetation. Low moisture increases the rate and intensity at which vegetation will burn in a wildland fire. The good news is there are steps residents can take to help protect themselves, their property, and firefighters during a wildland fire. Residents and communities are encouraged to work together to reduce the density & continuity of vegetation around their homes by creating a defensible space, which will reduce the rate at which fire can spread.

OPINIONS / YOURS AND OURS

Amid tragedy is forgiveness, accountability Forgiveness itself is not often a topic in an editorial, but the recent words of Lisa Clements, wife of slain Colorado prisons chief Tom Clements, inspire food for thought. She stood with her two daughters by her side at her husband’s service March 25 in Colorado Springs and said, “We pray for forgiveness and peace for the family of the man suspected of taking Tom’s life, and we pray every day for forgiveness and peace in our own hearts.” She noted she shares her husband’s belief in redemption and the ability for the human heart to be changed. Her comments echo many other expressions of forgiveness in news reports

OUR VIEW through the years. One surely was the reaction of the Amish community in Lancaster, Pa., after a 32-year-old gunman killed several girls in a one-room schoolhouse before killing himself in 2006. While the Amish community was not inclined to interact with the media, its stance was clear to not think evil of the gunman and instead pray for the shooter’s family,

Will the Rockies be improved this season? several south metro-area locations if they thought the changes would help the Rockies play better baseball this year.

“I believe they will be a better team than they were last year. I believe new manager Walt Weiss will bring more energy to the team and I think they have made moves that have strengthened the pitching staff.” —Trevor Johnson, Denver

“I guess I think the Rockies will be better this season because I am always optimistic at the start of the season. I really like the attitude Walt Weiss has brought to the team. … I think they will win more than half their games this season.” — Brian Ewert, Centennial

“I do think they will be improved. Several top players are back from injuries and they have some new people on the roster. Also, Walt Weiss as the new manager will teach them to improve on the little things they have to do to win games.” —Tom O’Connor, Englewood

“I think the Rockies will do all right .... Pitching has improved and I believe Manager Walt Weiss will have the players working on fundamentals and he will show them how not to do those little things they do when they beat themselves.” —Doug Severinson, Elizabeth

April, don’t be cruel I happen to like April. I think April is a month of optimism, which is saying something, because I humbug just about everything. “If anything can go wrong, it will.” If I dropped one hundred slices of Wonder Bread coated with peanut butter, 98 of them would land peanut butter down. I know it. I’ve known two girls named April, and both of them were beautiful. Maybe that has something to do with it, why I like April. One of them, this is the absolute truth, was named April May. I think she was a June bride, and took the name of her husband, which messed up one of the greatest names ever. I guess April May sounds like it could be the name of an adult film star too. T. S. Eliot wasn’t as thrilled with April as I am. He wrote “The Waste Land” in 1922, and it starts this way: April is the cruellest month, breeding Lilacs out of the dead land, mixing Memory and desire, stirring Dull roots with spring rain At the time Eliot was writing “The Waste Land” his marriage was failing, and he was suffering from a nervous disorder. There you go. Of course he’s not going to write “April is the coolest month” if he is miserable. He could have been referring to Tax Day-month too. Income tax became permanent in 1913 with the Sixteenth Amendment to the Constitution, and income tax day typically falls on April 15. I always enjoy seeing stories about people who file at the last minute, driving to the post office, and saying, “Whew!” I finish my tax returns in February. I have an accountant, a great accountant. “Why don’t you just use TurboTax?” I was asked. “Because I have a great accountant,” is always my answer. My accountant and his daughter have been doing my taxes for over 20 years. I would miss them. I am right-brained, so tax codes and forms are a foreign language. My accountant approaches taxes very differently than I ever could. He works with numbers the way I work with colors. He seems to enjoy it, navigating information into compliancy.

while each person’s offer of forgiveness is based on various factors — such as whether remorse is expressed — a commitment to forgiveness reflects the best in all of us, a step toward mending and somehow improving the future to come. In a recent CNN interview, Lisa Clements said she could be enraged but chooses not to be angry with news that an errant court proceeding allowed the gunman to be released from prison four years early. She said she will not let it consume her. While she supports this need for accountability, we admire her strength as she champions a commitment to forgiveness and the steadfast view she shared with her husband that people can change.

Discretion will be applied to gun rights

QUESTION OF THE WEEK The Colorado Rockies have a new manager and have brought in a number of new players for this season. We asked people at

which was further conveyed by neighbors who interacted with the tight-knit community. Some Amish even reached out to comfort the family of the gunman. Although the level of forgiveness to some surely seemed too generous, it seemed to quiet the surrounding community as it respectfully honored the perspective of its neighbors, the direct victims of the shooting. We noticed a similar effect following Lisa Clements’ thoughtful statements. The complex mix of grieving, accountability and forgiveness is too much for any one editorial, but we venture to say the heart does not so quickly follow the mind once someone has decided to forgive. And

I have decided that I will paint for another 10 years, and then quit. And then there will be no more deductions for paintbrushes and stretcher bars. I might be able to do my own taxes again, like I did when I was in college. Clip a W-2 to a one-page form, and be done in five or ten minutes. That would be a relief. But right now I have a slew of categorized envelopes, that turn into rounded-off numbers, that detail every thing I spent and earned as a artist. I’m giving April the benefit of the doubt, and I doubt everything. I think there are crueler months, for one thing. July and August? You can have them. If I had to live in St. Louis in July and August, my poem would start out, “July and August are the cruellest months, and the Cardinals are 16 games back.” April is OK with me. Winter is over, and things are blossoming. It’s impossible to be a total grouch when things are blossoming. The derivation of the name is uncertain, but the belief is it comes from the Latin aperire, “to open,” which makes sense, because it’s the season when trees and flowers begin “to open.” April has become infamous for another reason, namely 4:20 p.m. on April 20. Be sure to have some Cheetos handy. Ironically, April is “National Poetry Month.” Somewhere a poet will recite “The Waste Land” to an audience, that might not agree with her, because right outside the lilacs are lilacking away.

As your sheriff, I support the Second Amendment, which protects the right to keep and bear arms. I also support any laws that strengthen that constitutional right. I believe that more restrictive gun laws for law-abiding citizens will not have any positive effect on public safety. They will not prevent another massacre in a theater nor another mass murder in a school. I have reviewed and weighed the impact of Colorado’s three newest gun control measures, which will become law July 1. • I believe that law-abiding citizens have the constitutional right to gun ownership and the right to be safe in their homes and communities. • I do not agree that high-capacity magazines should be limited for law-abiding citizens. Criminals will just steal them or purchase them out-of-state. • I don’t think that semi-automatic weapons should be regulated, as is being discussed nationally. • I don’t think the laws will make people safer. For example, some American cities with strict gun laws have more gun violence than most other places. • Tighter gun laws will not prevent criminals from getting guns. The laws will only make it harder for law-abiding citizens to defend themselves. • The new legislation does not address mental health screening and it should. In two recent cases — in Aurora and in Newtown, Conn. — the killers either stole the guns or bought them legally despite concerns about their mental health. The additional background checks still do not evaluate or validate the buyer’s mental health. • The new laws are too vague, which means they will be subject to judicial interpretation, and future legislation will be needed to further define them.

Highlands Ranch Herald

• The gun control measures will be difficult, if not impossible, to enforce. • The new laws do not address the problems of criminals stealing guns or of buying firearms out of state to use in Colorado. Background checks for private firearm transfers will only impact, again, law-abiding citizens. • There are also concerns that the background check could become a hidden state tracking system of gun owners, whereby the legislature may enact legislation that’s punitive to gun owners. For example, in 2013, lawmakers proposed legislation to make gun owners civilly liable even if their firearms had been stolen. As sheriff, I am sworn to enforce the laws of the State of Colorado, but I am also sworn to uphold the U.S. and state constitutions. When these two duties conflict, as I anticipate they will over the coming months, I will exercise the discretion that you, as the citizens of Douglas County, have granted me, to the best of my ability. I will not disregard the new laws; but neither do I see myself ordering gun magazine roundups, or any other radical steps over which you, Frie the citizenry, have expressed valid conWri cerns.

David Weaver is the sheriff of Douglas County.

For example, someone who has ount- been living with chronic pain or frequent ham- injuries may have built up a tolerance to d the pain. Treatments and therapies that used band to be exceedingly painful have become more tolerable. Aches and pains that were so severe that they sidelined us from life’s activities have given way to our desire to do more. I know many people in this very situation right now. They are suffering from bad backs, hips, knees, cancer, diabetes and other debilitating diseases. I have seen these same people rise to the occasion and get themselves to an acceptable level of tolerance associated with their pain. The pain or hurt doesn’t go away, it’s just that over time they have conditioned themselves to accept as much as they possibly can. What about at work? Where do we dif- draw the line and hold people accountable for performance and productivity? What is our acceptable level of tolerance when either our staff or our managers are not working at the expected level of n performance? We can choose to ignore it te and hope it will get better, which never n, works, or we can have a calm and producack- tive discussion and re-set expectations for state everyone. I know for me personally, as a leader by at’s or manager and even as an employee, I always felt like others were not keeping up n with my pace. This included my managers o heir and senior executives. In this case it was not a matter of having a discussion with others and re-setting expectations, it was e also about me realizing that I needed to adjust nsti- my acceptable level of tolerance.

Children 12 and under

FREE How much are we tolerating in our relationships? Do our partners, spouses, children, parents, and friends support us and do everything they can to make us feel appreciated, respected and loved? And if not, do we accept that, sweep it under the rug, and again hope that it gets better? It never works. We need to share with everyone what we are willing to accept and tolerate and what we are not. And as difficult as that may sound, once the conversations have happened in most cases things will begin to get much better. And as a consumer, as a customer, what is our acceptable level of tolerance? We can choose to continue to shop or eat or drink at places where we don’t feel appreciated and receive poor service, or we can decide that there are probably better options, a store, restaurant or bar where the attention to customer service and quality surpasses our expectations. The point is this: We are in control. We get to determine what we will accept and what we will not. We set the thresholds of tolerance, not anyone else. It is a freeing and liberating feeling when we finally get to that point and our opportunities to enjoy life increase proportionally. How about you — what are you willing to tolerate? I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com, and my hope is that this will be a better than good week for you.

says Wright ‘was always selfless, never self-promoting’ By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com Well-known Douglas County Republican and father Steven Wright died of complications from a stroke April 4. A memorial service is planned at 9:30 a.m. April 12 at Skyview Presbyterian Church in Centennial. Internment will follow at 12:15 p.m. at Fort Logan National Cemetery, Staging Area C. Wright, 38, is survived by his wife, Monica, and children Garrett, Hannah, Abigail and Peyton. Wright was a computer systems administrator at Catholic Health Initiatives in Denver, and a part-time real estate agent with Home Smart Real Estate Group. Wright served in the Air

Force until 1997. He also was an assistant district captain for the Douglas County Rep u b l i c a n s. He served as campaign manager for former Douglas C o u n t y Wright Republican Mark Baisley during his recent run for state party chairman. “He was just so energetic,” Baisley said. “You can’t believe all the things that he would get involved in. That’s why there’s such an outpouring for him now. So many people remember him for being so many places and being so involved. He was always selfless, never self-promoting.” Though Wright had not sought political office, Baisley described Wright as “the epitome of the American conservative.” “He was trying to preserve the founding principles,” Baisley said. “He

He also was an occasional host on Grassroots Radio at 560 AM. Wright suffered a massive stroke March 19, according to Baisley, which initially affected his motor skills but not his brain. While hospitalized, Wright suffered additional strokes that he did not survive. “We have really suffered a loss with him,” Baisley said. “He was such a unique character because of his drive and his great love of the country.” A fundraiser auction for the family is from 5-9 p.m. April 19 at the Southridge Recreation Center on McArthur Ranch Road in Highlands Ranch.

Common kitchen remodeling mistakes to avoid By Kitchen Tune-Up www.kitchentuneup.com

Everyone’s heard the horror stories of the remodel that went wrong, very wrong; the contractor skips town with the deposit, the product doesn’t arrive and you wait months for a workable kitchen, bathroom, etc., the kitchen is left so dirty and in such disarray that it takes days to clean it up and feel like you can cook in it again. It doesn’t have to be that way! There are honest, hard-working contractors out there who are good at what they do and will make your kitchen, bath, or wood floor look spectacular for a reasonable price. So, what should you look out for when entrusting your beloved home to someone you don’t know? Here are five common mistakes you can avoid if you know about them in advance. We’ll also give you some tips on things you can do to ensure your remodeling experience is the best it can be. • Don’t expect your project to run perfectly. Problems do occur. If you get upset about a few days’ slippage, you will drive yourself insane. Remember, you will have this kitchen for a good number of years, so a few days here or there are insignificant to the overall result. The important thing is that your contractor is reacting to it, getting it handled and gets everything back on track as soon as possible. For example, your contractor pulls the old cabinets off and finds

out there has been a leak that has rotted the flooring and joists under the floor, so everything stops until another company can come in and fix it … if everyone is busy, it could be a week or more. You need to be prepared for the possibility that this type of problem can happen. • Don’t expect a working kitchen until the project’s done, so make arrangements for that. Cabinet refacing does not shut down your kitchen, but new countertops in addition to refacing will. You will probably be without running water and a sink for a few days. New kitchens are shut down on day one, as soon as the old cabinets are torn out. Depending on the countertop chosen, you’re typically looking at two to four weeks before you have a fully functional kitchen again. • Don’t start your remodel before you’ve chosen your appliances. Make sure you have the specs in the contractors’ hands prior to cabinets being ordered. This will result in a better fit for the appliance into the cabinets … especially wall ovens, built-in microwaves, cook tops, and large fridges. • Don’t pay for the entire project until the entire project is completed. Most projects will require you to make a significant down payment. This is normal, because the contractor has to place orders for products designed specifically for your kitchen. If you decided to withdraw from the project, he’d be stuck holding the bag. However, it is good policy to always leave a portion outstanding until the kitchen is fin-

ished. Ten percent is pretty typical. If you have a problem giving your contractor a down payment, then you don’t trust him, and you should not be using him. • Don’t fall for the “big discount if you sign now” routine. Some remodeling companies offer huge discounts if you sign with them on the spot. If they offer an extremely large discount, it just means their price is too high to begin with. Remember, though, it is more cost-effective for the company to be able to wrap things up on the first call, so a modest discount to save a second trip is reasonable, just use common sense. High-quality companies won’t use high-pressure tactics to get you to sign. Their product, service and references speak for themselves. Make sure you check out your contractor thoroughly in advance. Call their references, check from time to time, there are such things as “difficult” or “unreasonable” clients. If a contractor has a bad comment or complaint, consider it against the length of time they’ve been in business and ask them to explain any issues you found. It is expected that on occasion, good contractors may have bad customers. If you see a pattern of complaints, however, you know you shouldn’t use that contractor. You should be comfortable with and “click” with the contractor you’ve chosen for your remodel. Make sure they have a good amount of experience, positive references and valid liability insurance if something does go wrong.

Tips to avoid injury while spring cleaning By StatePoint

Cleaning your home from top to bottom this spring? Do so with care. From falls off ladders to muscle pain, heavy-duty chores can be hazardous to your health and wellness if you’re not careful. So before you roll up – in-your sleeves and get into ona-the thick of it, take a moment to review some essengbirdtial safety precautions:

n va-Avoid outdoor mishaps W hen mow ing the lawn, wear sturdy, closedtoe shoes. Clear your lawn of stones, toys and other potentially hazardous debris before you begin, eren-to prevent flying objects. Keep children away from addi-your yard while you’re midmowing. Foli- Reduce the risk of a ladch asder fall by always using a Theystable ladder. Be sure to keepuse the correct height ladl be-der for the job and follow all weight restrictions. Only set ladders on level surreen-faces. Pay close attention to what you’re doing and climb up and down the ladder slowly and deliberately. Treat muscles right From lawn work to scrubbing floors, unusual repetitious motions can really take a toll, resulting in muscle pain or bruising. Treat your spring clean like a workout and stretch your

Photo courtesy of StatePoint major muscle groups before you get started. When lifting those boxes in your basement and any other objects with heft, bend at the knees to avoid throwing your back out. If a chore is causing you pain, stop what you’re doing. “Start out slowly to avoid placing a sudden demand on your muscles that are not use to this activity,” says Anne Meyer, MD who focuses on sports rehabilitation medicine. If you feel stiff or sore after a long day of reaching, bending and lifting, Dr. Meyer recommends minimizing physical activity, elevating an injured arm or leg, and treating the first sign of muscle pain by applying a quick absorbing topical muscle pain reliever like Arnicare Gel. Remember to take fre-

quent breaks. And end your long day with a relaxing bath. Clean safely Cleaning products can be extremely stringent, causing irritation to your eyes, nose and throat. If opting for natural alternatives, such as vinegar or lemons is not an option, use the harsher stuff with care. Open all windows when using harsh cleaning products, especially ammonia. Wear gloves and consider protecting your nose and mouth with a surgical mask. Place products out of reach when you’re not using them if you have pets or small children. By following a few safety measures, you can make your spring clean a rejuvenating experience.

How to make your garden more environmentally friendly By StatePoint Spring is here, which means it’s time to slip those green thumbs into some gardening gloves. And if you want to feel truly good about what you grow, consider upgrading your garden to be more planet-friendly. Here are some ideas to consider: Grow your own dinner Grow the vegetables, herbs and flowers that you would normally purchase for your dinner and floral arrangements. Local is more sustainable because it reduces the carbon footprint associated with transport. And you can’t get more local than your own backyard. Encourage pollination Pollination is crucial for agricultural production and the health of the ecosystem. Unfortunately, many pollinating insects are highly susceptible to environmental changes and have in recent years, suffered major population decline. You can help local pollinators thrive by planting a variety of native species of varying colors and shapes and reducing your use of pesticides. Be bird-friendly No garden is truly complete without

regular visits from birds. Encourage flying visitors by installing a feeder and bird bath. According to a study published in the Wilson Journal of Ornithology, billions of birds die annually worldwide from collisions with windows. So if you’re going to send out the mass invite to these beautiful creatures, don’t forget to make it hazardfree for their arrival. Without affecting the appearance of your home, you can make your windows safer for birds by applying static-cling decals. For example, WindowAlert creates decals that look like frosted glass to people, but brilliantly reflect UV light for birds. To create a complete visual barrier, consider filling in the gaps between decals with UV Liquid dots which are invisible to humans, but visible to birds. More information on preventing bird collisions can be found at www.WindowAlert.com. Compost By composting, you will not only reduce your home’s overall waste, you’ll also create a rich soil that can be used in your garden to cultivate plants naturally. Be careful what you compost, however. Sawdust from chemically treated wood, diseased plants, and even walnuts, when composted, can create soil that’s hazardous to both plants and people.

Play spotlights music legend Hank Williams drama offers humor, sadness By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com “Hank Williams: Lost Highway” is onstage at Lone Tree Arts Center through April 14 — a revisit of a show originally workshopped at the Denver Center for Performing Arts in 1986/87. Director Randal Mylar and music director Dan Wheetman took it to the Manhattan Ensemble Theatre off-Broadway in 2002, and it has played across the U.S. in subsequent years. They recently brought the John Denver Holiday Concert to Lone Tree. The production, co-produced by Starkey Theatrix and Lone Tree Arts Center, shows the polish it has acquired, featuring an Equity cast of experienced performers who make it all look easy as they revisit the music and life of this extremely talented/ extremely conflicted American legend. Hank Williams shot to the national scene

If you go “Hank Williams: Lost Highway” plays through April 14 at Lone Tree Arts Center, 10075 Commons St. Performances: 7:30 p.m. Thursday; 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday; 1:30 p.m. Sunday. Tickets start at $29, 720-509-1000, LoneTreeArtsCenter. org/hank. from backwoods Alabama, recording a total of 35 singles. After a stretch on Grand Ole Opry — and being fired from that show — he died of an overdose in the back seat of his baby blue Cadillac at age 29. Of those 35 songs, 11 hit number one and have become part of our national fabric, and the 20 songs interwoven into this smoothly composed biographical story all sound familiar. Backed by a versatile band, Hank sings of loneliness and sadness, “Lovesick Blues,” as well as some upbeat numbers such as “Hey Good Lookin’.” Ryan Nearhoff, a New York-based actor and musician, certainly resembles the online photos of Williams. He is believable in song style and in his picture of a man disin-

tegrating publicly due to alcohol and drugs. His backup band members — who eventually had to give up on him — are all well-developed characters, and three of them have toured with this production elsewhere. Mama Lily, who helped launch Hank’s career, is played by Denver favorite Kathleen Brady, who belts out songs with spirit throughout. His wife Audrey, who also tied into his career, is played by Jamie Ann Romero, and the waitress in Pete’s Diner, who enjoys Hank’s radio broadcasts and dances to the rhythms at the front edge of the stage, is award-winning Denver actor Rhonda Brown. Mississippi Charles Bevel plays blues singer Tee-Tot, who taught Hank to play the guitar and sing early on. He is woven into the storyline intermittently from his corner of the stage. Denver audiences know him from the fine production of “It Aint Nothin’ But the Blues” produced some years ago at the Denver Center. Humor and sadness mix in this account of an American favorite. It is skillfully staged, with an overlay of lighting that gives the production a soft patina. It merits a visit for the quality of performances.

Street art inspires woman’s abstract works By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcolorado news.com “Whitewash,” is Patricia Aaron’s title for a group of six new ink and encaustic paintings to be exhibited in a group show at Space Gallery in Denver’s Santa Fe Arts District, where she is a new member. The exhibit runs from April 19 to June 1. She will be present at an opening reception from 6-9 p.m. April 19. She writes that the new works were inspired by a recent

trip to Key West, where she explored behind the tourist facades to find exuberant street art, graffiti, filling walls along alleys, underpasses and schoolyards. Whitewash is the community’s method to eradicate the art. For more than 20 years, Aaron, of Greenwood Village, has been researching rogue art as historical record. She finds references pre-dating the ancient Greek, Roman and Egyptian civilizations. Her chosen medium for interpreting her responses to

graffiti is a combination of ink and encaustic — beeswax with pigment — layered precisely to present rich, sometimes translucent effects. Her works are abstract, with suggestions of words and other

markings buried in them. This technique of making art dates to ancient times and retains shape and color. The painter melts beeswax, adds pigment to small batches and brushes it on a panel in thin layers. When a layer is completed, it is carefully heated with a torch to seal the color. The end result is a complex, inviting painting with a rich, smooth, almost glassy surface through which one can see previously applied layers of color and texture.

Remember when “take me out to the ball game” meant a meal of peanuts and crackerjack along with a hot dog and beer? So imagine what a healthy home run that Aramark, Coors Field’s exclusive concessionaire, is hitting with the introduction of a sustainable garden located at Gate A of the ball field. The Colorado Rockies and Aramark have partnered with The Institute for the Built Environment at Colorado State University and Designs by Sundown to produce the on-site garden, which will provide the concessionaire with herbs and vegetables for use in Coors Field’s Mountain Ranch Club menu and build-your-own salad station. The design of “The Garden,” which is its official name, mimics a baseball stadium, with raised beds terracing upward from The Garden’s “infield” to the outfield and then to the stands. Ornamental flowers, followed by herbs, followed by vegetables will be on display for fans that pass through Gate A over the course of the Rockies’ season. The beds will be constructed of beetle kill pinewood sourced from Morgan Timber Products of Fort Collins. 0The plantings will be propagated at CSU from seeds adapted to the Colorado climate. The installation of The Garden marks a further commitment by the Rockies and Aramark to develop environmentally friendly programs in alignment with Major League Baseball’s recent green focus. On the other side of the snack spectrum, Aramark has added plenty of indulgent items that first were offered with last the April 5 home opener. They are: • Sausage on a stick — Italian, smoked cheddar, spicy Polish sausage. • Carnitas nachos — tortilla chips smothered in green chili queso topped with pork carnitas, jalapenos, pico de gallo and sour cream. • Smothered empanada — topped with former Bronco Mark Schlereth’s Stinkin’ Green Chili, shredded lettuce, pico de gallo and sour cream. • Pizza nachos — fresh fried pizza dough chips topped with house-made marinara sauce, shredded mozzarella, diced pepperoni and sausage. • Rib eye sandwich — a 4-ounce rib eye served with sliced Havarti horseradish cheese, topped with onion tanglers and tangy gold barbecue sauce. • Souvenir refillable popcorn.

Buying a home? Avoid these mistakes

he dream of home ownership is one that lives on in spite of the global economic struggles. The process of buying a home can be an emotional roller coaster ride, with feelings of excitement

mixed in with exhaustion, fear and uncertainty. Over the last several years, the real estate market has been turned upside down, and many prospective buyers have begun to question some of the conventional wisdom associ-

ated with buying a home. While such skepticism might be a healthy attitude in the current market, prospective buyers -- particularly those who have never purchased a home before -should avoid the following mistakes that buyers make

regardless of whether the market is up or down. * Failure to get qualified beforehand. Mortgage qualification is essential when buying a home, as it gives buyers preapproval for a loan before they make any offers. Making an offer on a home before you know what the bank is willing to lend you is a waste of time for everyone involved, including you, the seller and the real estate agents involved. Some agents will not show a home if you don’t have a preapproval. Once preapproved for a loan, don’t take any steps that might put that approval in jeopardy. This includes anything that might drastically alter your credit score. * Being blindsided by additional costs. Firsttime homebuyers, once they have moved into their home, often experience some sticker shock when the additional expenses associated with home ownership arise. These additional expenses include property tax and insurance costs and can be substantial. Even those buying a condominium or co-op should expect monthly maintenance fees

even if their new place is brand new and needs no maintenance. * Shooting for the moon. The ongoing recession is in part the result of predatory lending that saw banks grant excessive loans to applicants who, in hindsight, could not actually afford all that they were approved to borrow. The result was many people buying homes they could not afford, and then suffering some steep consequences, including foreclosure, when the first mortgage payment came due or the interest rate rose. First-time and even veteran buyers must avoid shooting for the moon when it comes to buying a home, and instead only buy one they know they can afford. What the banks says you can afford isn’t always the same as what you know you can afford. Only buy a home you know you can afford, regardless of whether the bank has approved you for a larger loan. * Pigeonholing yourself into an inadequate living situation. Just like buyers shouldn’t go overboard, they also must avoid compromising on the things that are most important to

them. For example, many of today’s buyers, fully aware of the rash of foreclosures and all the housing horror stories of the last several years, are reticent to commit to a home, and might compromise with a condo or co-op. But if a home is what you really want, and another living situation that mirrors apartment life is going to make you miserable, don’t settle for that situation for the sake of security. Doing so could cost you financially, especially when you realize the situation isn’t what you’d hoped for and look to sell earlier than is ideal. * Skimping on the cost of an inspector. An inspector is your last chance to find out if a home is your dream home or a money pit. Even if a house appears to be everything you want, don’t close on the sale until the house has been thoroughly inspected. The old adage that advises against judging a book by its cover certainly applies to buying a home, and prospective buyers should enlist the services of a qualified inspector before closing on the sale of a home. ■ Metro Creative Services

Parker: Sarto’s Pantry will be located next to new eatery Parker continues from Page 14

Laird lands at Sarto’s

Since talented chef Brian Laird left Barolo Grill, after a 12-year stint in command of the kitchen, he bounced around Denver’s dining scene between the now-shuttered Russo’s in the Vallagio development in Arapahoe County to the now-shuttered RockBar on East Colfax to Sketch at 101 Broadway. I don’t think that Laird knew what he wanted to do when he grew up. But the boy wonder (he looks younger than his years) finally has landed at a spot I think he can call home. Sarto’s, a northern Italian eatery poised to open in the fall in a vacant century-old property at Eliot Street and 25th Avenue, will be the centerpiece of an emerging neighborhood between Highland and Sports Authority Field. Laird and majority owners Taylor Swallow and Kjsa Gotlin share a passion for northern Italian cuisine, which will be adapted to reflect contemporary tastes. Laird will craft a seasonal made-fromscratch menu featuring locally sourced products, hand-selected Italian specialty items, antipasti creations, house-made pasta and wood-fired selections. Adjacent to the restaurant will be Sarto’s Pantry, which will offer quick bites for lunch or dinner including soups, sandwiches, salads and pizzas, plus take-home ingredients such as fresh pastas, sauces, meats and cheeses. For more information, visit www.sartos. com or www.facebook.com/sartosdenver or follow on Twitter @sartosdenver.

Juicy story

This restaurant rumor has some meat to it.

Exploring the romance of rails History comes alive in Highlands Ranch By Ryan Boldrey

rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com Thomas “Dr. Colorado” Noel is riding the rails into Highlands Ranch. The well-known local historian, who has authored numerous books on a variety of topics in the Centennial State, will make an appearance April 15 at the Highlands Ranch Historical Society’s monthly get-together. He will speak on the subject of railroads — what they’ve meant to the growth of the state, and their current place. “Coloradans spent the 19th century building railroads, a huge spiderweb of steel that went through nearly every town, from mining towns to little agricultural towns,” he said. “We spent much of the 20th century ripping it out, and now we are rebuilding it as RTD continues its Denverarea expansion. “So, from a historical standpoint, we are really going in a circle back to the efficient system we once had, while at the same time rebuilding something we lost.” Noel hopes to recapture the excitement of the rails for those in attendance, while simultaneously turning the younger generation on to the romantic way in which their grandparents and great-grandparents most likely toured Colorado. “There used to be over 100 different railroads in Colorado, and now most of them are gone,” he said. “There are about 10 surviving railroads in the state, most of which are in semi-operations only.” Noel, aided by a slideshow of historical photographs, will speak on all of those still in operation, from the Pikes Peak Cog Railway to the Royal Gorge Railroad in Canon City to the Durango & Silverton, which still attracts about 200,000 people a year, and is the only active Colorado line never abandoned, running on a daily basis since 1882. The University of Colorado-Denver professor has been leading train tours for the Smithsonian and History Colorado for 30 years, and will be heading up tours this summer through the San Luis Valley on the

The Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad is one of many historic rail lines that Dr. Colorado, Tom Noel, will talk about during his presentation April 15. Courtesy photo Rio Grande Scenic Railroad from Alamosa to La Veta as well as the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad. Noel describes the latter as a “64-mile jaunt that wiggles and snakes back and forth over the Colorado and New Mexico 11 times between Antonito and Chama, N.M., and is America’s highest narrow-gauge, coal-fired, steam-engine railroad.” No railroad presentation would be complete without talk of historic hotels linked to Colorado’s most famous lines, and Noel will touch on quite a few of them such as the Broadmoor in Colorado Springs, the Strater Hotel in Durango, Victor’s Victor Hotel, and the Brown Palace and Oxford in Denver. Noel will speak from 7-8:30 p.m. April 15 at the auditorium in Southridge Recreation Center, 4800 McArthur Ranch Road in Highlands Ranch. The event is free for members, and there is a suggested $1 donation for non-members. Light refreshments will be served beginning at 6:30.

Water gardening makes waves at event Presenters coming to Denver venue By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com As the last traces of snow recede, anxious gardeners kick into gear, in anticipation of flowers, fruits, veggies and other green leafy projects. Water gardeners are no exception, and the Colorado Water Garden Society invites readers to its annual event, held in conjunction with the Denver Botanic Gardens: “Get Wet — Water Gardening Fun in 2013 — Bringing the Tropics to Your Backyard Pool.” Starting at 6:30 p.m. April 18 in the botanic gardens’ Gates Hall, local garden shops and pond businesses will display related resources before and after the program, which runs from 7-8:30 p.m. Presenters on the program include: • Dee Beckman of Tagawa’s on tropical marginals such as cannas and papyruses. • LeighAnn Brown from Nick’s on tropical floating plants such as water hyacinths and lettuce. • Andy Humphrey from Jared’s on tropical waterlilies, including the large Victorias. • Diane Ross from Enery’s on water quality, fish and pond supplies. • Tim Boettcher from True Pump on pumps, creative uses of fountains and lighting.

Music pro to teach songwriting Valor Christian instructor shares craft he loves By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com “How cool to have a license to legitimately have fun! ... It’s hard work, yes — you develop a work ethic — but you never get to a place where it’s drudgery. … Playing music — if you’re not having fun, it’s not worth it.” Those are words of Marty Magehee, a veteran of the music industry and, as of 2011, on the faculty of Valor Christian High School in Highlands Ranch. He is scheduled to share his expertise by teaching a songwriting class for adults this spring. His enthusiasm is contagious. He is a gold album artist due to his long association with the Christian music quartet 4HIM, which traveled across the nation performing 250 and more concerts a year. “At five years, we leveled out at 250,” he said. “By then three of us were married and starting families. … In the 20 years we sang together we gave more than 4,200 concerts.” The group performed regularly in Colorado, and Magehee says when he was first married, he was writing songs about Colorado. Denver First Church of the Nazarene in Cherry Hills Village was a familiar stop. At Valor Christian, he has developed a sophisticated recording studio where the class will meet. He calls it “makeshift” as he anticipates the building of a dedicated space in the projected new art building, which will be

IF YOU GO Valor Christian High School is at 3775 E. Grace Blvd., Highlands Ranch.

The goal for the class: Each student will have written or be part of writing several songs by the end. Development of a core idea, how to recognize “the money idea,” (an industry term), create 20 lines plus the chorus … “nail down the look that makes it happen ….” One and one half focused hours on Wednesday nights for six weeks are scheduled. From a musical family, Magehee taught himself to play the guitar and piano and eventually majored in trumpet performance. He also has a degree in music education. At Valor, he teaches songwriting, advanced worship band, studio recording — beginning and advanced. He hopes to make the studio appealing to Nashville music pros, who might want to come here to do projects — song by song or, when up and running, full projects. Also offered are two other classes: “Core Photography” with Brian Rowden and “Intro to Graphic Design” with Mary Kate Dick. All three will be offered from 7-8:30 p.m. on Wednesdays. Each class costs $250 for six weeks.

Winery guide author coming to Ranch Mitchell has traveled to nearly all of Colorado’s facilities By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com Local author Paula Mitchell shared tasting tips and suggestions about pairing wines and foods when she spoke at Bemis Library last month — and she especially talked about Colorado’s growing collection of wineries, as described in her 2012 book, “Exploring Colorado Wineries.” She is stopping again in the south metro area at 6:30 p.m. April 26, when she will appear at the Highlands Ranch Library, 9292 Ridgeline Blvd. For reservations, call 303792-7323. She has visited 97 percent of the state’s 105 wineries, she said — meeting owners from all walks of life and sampling their products, which may vary from one or two specialties to a range of varieties and flavors. And she has recently completed training to be a Level II sommelier. Novices reading Mitchell’s book will

appreciate her chapter on tasting, including advice to start a personal journal. There is an order: white before red, delicate before strong, dry before sweet … Five s’s follow: See, swirl, smell, sip, savor — plus a page of descriptive words. How to read a wine label and a section on the process of winemaking and grape varieties leads to an overview of common grapes grown in Colorado, resulting wines and related terminology The reader is ready to travel — hopefully with journal in hand — and Mitchell divides the state into regions, with details as to times when wineries are open for visits. Weekend expeditions may be the way to organize after one takes note of hours and locations. She defines Colorado’s regions as: Grand Valley, Delta and Montrose counties, Four Corners Region, Front Range Region (north and south), Pikes Peak Region, Mountain Region. In addition to winery visits, there are numerous spots that host tasting rooms for more than one vintner — including several in the metro area which are open on Saturday afternoons and more. Colorado Winery Row at 4640 Pecos St. in Denver represents four wineries: Bonacquisti Wine Company, Cottonwood Cellars

BOOK FOR WINE LOVERS “Exploring Colorado Wineries” ($23.95) is available at bookstores, wineries and from the author: ExploringColoradoWineries.com, where updated information is added as it’s available to her and blogs describe winery visits in detail.

“Exploring Colorado Wineries” is by local author Paula Mitchell. Courtesy image and The Olathe Winery, Garfield Estates Vineyard and Winery and Verso Cellars. The

tasting room is open from noon to 5 p.m. Thursdays through Saturdays and by appointment. It exhibits work by local artists and sometimes has events with live music. Specialties are highlighted through the book: Liliputian Winery in Hotchkiss, for example, is the only producer in the U.S. of Ginger Wine, called ShangriLa — nice with sushi. After each regional grouping of wineries, Mitchell has included a listing of other things to do and see in the area. In the Delta and Montrose, West Elks Region, suggestions include: Black Canyon of the Gunnison, Morrow Point Boat Tours, the Creamery Arts Center, West Elk Scenic By-Way. For each winery, Mitchell pictures a label in color, lists how many cases are produced annually and which varieties; a message from the owner; tasting room details and other amenities; precise directions; and possible other tasting room locations.

Arts center hitting its stride Lone Tree facility draws arts patrons, first-timers By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com In its 18 months of life, the Lone Tree Arts Center has so far sold 67,300 tickets. That means nearly 4,000 people a month have passed through the auditorium doors. “To be able to talk about those kinds of numbers, even before the second season is over, I think is pretty remarkable,” executive director Lisa Rigsby Peterson said. “We didn’t start with a subscriber base of 5,000. We started from zero.” The long-planned $23 million center, which features a 500-seat auditorium, opened in August 2011. Peterson believes the high ticket volume to date partially reflects the quality and variety of programming she and her staff have booked, but said it goes deeper than that. “I think it also points to the pent-up demand there has been for some time in the south metro area,” she said. “Forty-eight percent of our ticket buyers are from Douglas County. Another 52 percent are from outside the county, primarily Arapahoe, Jefferson and Denver counties. “I think people who already love the arts will find the arts wherever they can. But what we hear over and over again, especially from people who live south of Hampden (Avenue), is the reason they’re so excited about having the arts center here is the convenience.” That’s among the long list of attributes Lone Tree resident Rita Rosen Oja cites for being a season ticket subscriber.

“Proximity is a big factor for us,” she said. “I like being able to go to a show during the week that may get out a 10 o’clock (p.m.) and five minutes later, we’re home. It’s not the difficulty of being downtown, having to navigate getting to the car and getting home. “To be able to see the Creede Repertory Theatre — which I’d heard about for years — five minutes from my house has just been phenomenal.” Arts lovers like Oja are key to the center’s success, but what thrills Peterson most is hearing from people who aren’t regular attendees. “We have a lot of first-time arts goers who come here because it’s friendly, convenient and affordable,” she said. They, too, are vital to the center because first-timers often become regulars, bringing friends and family. Newcomers, as well as fans of niche productions, are drawn to unique productions like the One-Man Star Wars Trilogy, which pulled people from as far away as Colorado Springs. That broad cross-section of patrons is on Peterson’s mind when she concocts the artistic soup that is a new season. “When I`m choosing an event, it’s really a mixture of those two things,” she said. “What are things that are really satisfying for people who love the arts? And what are some things that might be very specific draws for people who will travel to see it?” Oja, who’s rarely missed an LTAC production since its opening, says the mix so far has been just right. “I’m really impressed there’s a very eclectic grouping of music and theater productions,” she said. “There’s something for everybody.”

The timing is perfect for B.A. Shapiro’s appearance at Highlands Ranch Library. At 6:30 p.m. on April 17, she will talk about her sixth novel — “The Art Forger,” inspired by the still-unsolved, highly publicized 1990 theft of 13 masterpieces from the Isabella Gardner Museum in Boston. Recently in the news again, there are new leads for law authorities attempting to recover the works, which are marked by empty frames at the museum. Shapiro’s complicated story follows a young artist, Claire Roth, a skilled painter who makes her living by copying masterpieces on order for a reproductions company. The reader with an interest in art is fascinated by Shapiro’s detailed account of how forgeries are executed to fool today’s high-tech verification procedures, starting with an old canvas from the desired period, matching the original paints — with indepth knowledge of the particular artist’s techniques and brushstrokes. Degas, in this situation, had clearly recognized color choices and painting style. Shapiro’s research into the byzantine paths followed in the art world, combined with an imagined work of art and gossipy fictional tales about Isabelle Stewart Gardner, result in a leisurely spin, with side trips to late 19th-century Paris, where Gardner and Degas were part of the swirling Impressionist world. The eccentric Gardner alone provides fodder for a book. She reportedly walked

Imagined letters to a fictional niece, Amelia, tie episodes together. Claire makes a Faustian deal to copy a fictional Degas painting that was included in the theft and becomes certain that it is actually a forgery through analysis of brushstrokes and early Degas sketches. Not only is the moral aspect of fairly common copying (reproductions) versus intentional forgery explored, but a glimpse of more cynical attitudes in the museum world surfaces. Discussions about the moral aspects of Claire’s trade and her life choices should make for good book-club meetings across the nation Shapiro, who has a background in sociology, education and software development, says in her online biography that she started writing novels with her mother’s encouragement after retiring with the birth of a second child. We read often about reinventing oneself as life brings changes. Shapiro has brought a combination of skills in writing and research to her career as a novelist and writer of four screenplays. This reader can certainly imagine a richly colored film based on the story of Claire Roth, art forger and conflicted woman in a specialized, glamorous world.

Valor coach has eye on at-bats Score not whole story in win, Wahl says By Jim Benton

jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com The scoreboard appeared to tell the whole story, but Valor Christian baseball coach Keith Wahl said there was more. Host Valor Christian pounded out 18 hits in 4 1/3 innings en route to a 14-4 victory over Littleton on April 3. “We brought the bats really well,” Wahl said of his team, which had a .364 team batting average after the season’s first nine games. “We actually don’t talk about hits. We talk about quality at-bats. We posted 29 quality at-bats, which is the best we’ve done this year. A quality at-bat is a bunt, it’s moving guys over, its seven-pitch at-bats and things like that.” The Eagles have bought into the productive at-bat philosophy. “It’s a tough lesson to learn but the second you learn it, you see how it works,” Valor senior leadoff hitter Daniel Lund said. “It’s one of those things that once you figure it out, wow, this is really clicking and it’s helping our team out more than me individually. “If you advance a runner from second to third, that’s a big out. It’s not a hit but it definitely helps us. A quality at-bat is basically

You don’t want to always measure on average.” However, for those who are only interested in what appears in the box score, Lund went 4-for-4 and scored three runs in the victory over the Lions. “I just try to get our team fired up espe-

cially on that first at-bat,” Lund said. “I always try to have a good approach and try and work the pitcher as much as I can. As a leadoff hitter, you can’t strike out.” Cleanup hitter Hayden Gerlach, who is returning from an injury, went 3-for-3 with two doubles, a run batted in and a run

Highlands Ranch junior gets a kick from scoring Plummer key for Falcons girls soccer By Jim Benton

jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com Like most goal scorers, Jenny Plummer is inspired when she scores. On an April 2 afternoon with a cold drizzle falling on the field at Legend High School, Plummer scored all three Highlands Ranch goals in a 3-2 Continental League girls soccer victory over the Titans. “As soon as I score, I get really pumped up and excited to play the rest of the game,” Plummer said. “It’s really great to be a top scorer.” Plummer put the Falcons up 1-0 on a free kick from 50 yards out, which bounced over the goalkeeper’s head and into the goal. She pushed Highlands Ranch in front 2-1 before halftime, when her shot from the left side hit off the side netting and deflected through the goalkeeper’s legs. Highlands Ranch, playing without five regular players because of injuries, sickness and spring break, went up 3-1 in the second half when Tanner Kidd faked a free kick from 30 yards away and Plummer sent a shot along the ground and into the goal for what turned out to be the game-winning tally. “We did a set piece,” Plummer explained. Plummer, a junior, has scored five of the

eight goals Highlands Ranch has scored this season, and all five tallies have come in the past three games. The April 2 victory was the fourth straight for Highlands Ranch, which improved to 3-0-0 in the Continental League and 4-2-0 overall. “We had players out, so the rest of the players had to play at a higher level,” said Highlands Ranch coach Randy Hodous. “We are very proud of their production. “We had a tough non-league. We need to keep improving, stay confident on the ball and get the most out of each of our players of what their strengths are. Jenny is a good attacking player. Tanner Kidd is a good distributor for us. Our back line does a good job. We have to keep getting better and better. It is important for us to feel confident with the ball.” Legend, still looking for its first win, fell to 0-3-1 in the league and 0-5-1 overall, but controlled play most of the second half against Highlands Ranch. In five previous games, the Titans had managed only two goals, but matched their season output against the Falcons when Cassi VanDeventer and Drew Guillen scored goals. “We had a lot of opportunities but we didn’t seem to put a lot of them away,” said Legend coach Jordan Ivey. “That’s been the story a little bit for us this season. We’re a young team and we’re still trying to figure out how to come together and play as a team. “We’ve been taking steps in the right

Week after week, senior Tanner Townsend keeps establishing new Castle View High School track stanutler,dards. alk a And the records he is d hisbreaking are his own. Townsend is the school hris-record-holder in the 100-, runs200- and 400-meter events. enth On March 30, he won Lundthe 100-meter dash at the ourthBroomfield Shootout with a school standard 10.74, and asonApril 6 he was first in the lim-200 meters at the Legend pril 6Track Clash with a 21.61 me attime, which lowered his own school mark. year, Townsend has only run as ain the 400 meters once this oth-season, so his 48.93 is still listed as the best in the Casbe-tle View record book. s in- In the April 6 meet at enedSports Authority Stadium, nverTownsend ran in the 200 itter,meters and on two Saberenthcats relay teams. “I like the 100 the best,” runssaid Townsend, who was We’rethird in the 100-meter dash posi-and seventh in the 200 methatters at last spring’s Class 5A mingstate meet. “Doing all the Ourevents kind of helps me. I didn’t run the 100 so I could col-kind of focus on the 200. Townsend, a standout on the Sabercats football team, is headed to the University of Sioux Falls to play football and run track next year, but for the time being Castle View coach Ryan Whitenack has to figure out what events to have his star sprinter enter. “He runs the 100-, 200-

Photo by Jim Benton and 400-meter dashes for us and holds the school records in all of them,” said Whitenack. “Tanner has the ability to run a variety of distances, which is awesome for our team.” Townsend was one of three boys who attend Douglas County schools to win events at the April 6 track meet. Rock Canyon’s Colin Borner edged his teammate Austin Kiel to win the pole vault with a 13-foot vault, and the Jaguars’ Cameron Gill captured the triple jump with a 45-03.50 leap. “I could have done better, but our practice last week was really, really hard,” Gill said. “We were set up up like the week of state. I didn’t get a PR but a 45-3 was acceptable.” Gill, a senior who accepted a track scholarship to Western State, was the

triple jump runner-up at last season’s state meet. “So far I’m happy but I could always do better,” he said. “I’ve been staying consistent. I want to get first at state. The vision is to get there but the goal is to win it.” There were three Douglas County girls credited with first-place finishes. Ponderosa’s Sarah Lark had the fastest time of 26.12 in the 200-meter dash to edge Castle View’s Brittany Reiner. Megan Cooney of Rock Canyon ran a 5:32.53 to lead all runners in the 1,600 run, and Rock Canyon senior Kelsey Lindemann was best in the shot put with a throw of 36-5.75. “I got a PR, which was very exciting, and I won, which was real exciting too,” said Lindemann. “It was a real good meet for me be-

cause I’ve been having bad meets. It was really good to get me back. The biggest key was staying loose and having fun. “I work hard and do my best, but I’m having a hard time being consistent and having it all together at the right time.” Rock Canyon had it all together and finished high in boys and girls standings. Cherokee Trail was the team champion in both divisions. The Rock Canyon girls were second and the Jaguar boys finished third. Castle View’s girls tied Cherry Creek for third place and the Sabercats boys team wound up sixth. Legend and Ponderosa also had teams in the meet. “This was like our meet,” Gill said. “We did very well. Everyone I’ve talked to had PRs. For a young school, we did very well.”

Workout trend on the upswing for area women By Jane Reuter

‘My boxing classes are very technical. Your first class, you might not even break a sweat.’ Pat Jiner, personal training manager

ope Frantom was, she said, “an uncoordinated mess” when she started boxing. Now, she’s not just coordinated but has gained a level of confidence she says permeates every aspect of her life. “I feel like whatever you throw at me, I could probably do,” said the Aurora resident, who works as a trainer at Lone Tree Athletic Club. “I have more confidence about trying new things. I am more confident approaching men in a social situation. I’m also a more confident teacher. “It’s also a great workout.” Frantom is among a wave of women choosing boxing and kickboxing for fitness. A trend for several years, the sport got a boost with the debut of women’s boxing at the 2012 Olympics. Cardio kickboxing classes have grown 37 percent in the past three years, according to Women’s Health magazine. “Better than 60 percent of our class is made up of women,” said Stephen Stafford, general manager at Lone Tree’s LA Boxing. “I have a lot of teachers, medical professionals, lawyers, business executives — all high-stress jobs. It’s that release they get (from boxing), in an environment that’s not intimidating.” In addition to providing an emotional outlet, boxing offers “every aspect of fitness,” Stafford

said, adding that most people burn between 800 and 1,000 calories per class. “Aside from heavyweights, have you ever seen a fat boxer?” he asked. The Lone Tree Athletic Club recently opened a boxing room in early 2013, with the urging of personal training manager Pat Jiner, who’s also a professional fighter. “The response has been overwhelming,” he said. As at LA Boxing, most of Jiner’s students are women. He, too, praises the calorie-burning benefits of the sport, describing boxing as “one of the better total cardio exercises you can do.” But his first priority is form. “My boxing classes are very technical,” he said. “Your first

class, you might not even break a sweat. Before you can start amping up, I need to make sure your feet are underneath you and you’re punching properly. You take one of my classes and have to remember combinations. Jiner “kept telling me boxing is like dancing,” Frantom said. “I’ve never been able to dance. I was very intimidated. You have to think about 500 different things at the same time.” She also had to overcome an aversion to the idea of punching. “I remember telling him, `I’m from the South, I don’t hit people,’” Frantom said. “Now that I can do it, I think it makes a woman more attractive because she has the confidence that comes with knowing, `I can take care of myself.’”

Sandra Wong of Castle Rock, participating in a kickboxing class at the Lone Tree Athletic Club, is among a growing wave of women using boxing and kickboxing for fitness.
