Woman calls bombing ‘terrifying’ Runner from Lone Tree describes scene of chaos after Boston explosions By Jane Reuter

Lone Tree resident Hannah Bailey was waiting in a Boston Marathon medical tent for treatment for a runner’s injury when the bombs detonated. Bailey, 37, a stay-at-home mother, had crossed the finish line at the Boston Marathon at 2:09 p.m. April 15. Two bombs exploded seconds apart at 2:49 p.m. “I was lying there on the cot when I heard the first explosion go off,” Bailey said. “Very quickly after that, I heard the doctor say, ‘We need to get these people up and out of here. We’ve got people coming in.’

“They very quickly discharged me. As soon as I walked out of the medics’ tent, first responders were trying to get by. It was just mass chaos.” Three people were killed and hundreds were injured. But standing outside the tent, Bailey didn’t know any of that yet. “I knew something had happened but didn’t quite understand what it was until I heard somebody on their cell phone saying, ‘Explosion. Don’t come to Boston.’ “As soon as I knew something had gone wrong, I felt absolute panic and fear because I didn’t know where my family was,” she said. Bailey’s bag, including her cell phone, was a city block away. She couldn’t call her husband Nick and best friend Melissa, both of whom were in Boston. “People were running everywhere,” she said. “It was very difficult to find my fam-

ily because of the chaos. I was just praying they would be OK.” She found them, safe and sound, about half an hour later. Though Bailey didn’t witness the horrific injuries many victims suffered, she described the experience as “very terrifying.” Like most of the thousands who run in the world’s oldest annual marathon, participating in the event was her long-held dream. “When I started running 2½ years ago, all I wanted to do was run Boston,” she said. “I thought it would be so neat to one day be able to qualify. “In the end, it didn’t quite end up exactly as I thought.” Boston was her eighth marathon. It will not be her last. “I am not deterred at all,” she said. “There are evil people in this world, and it’s too bad that has to exist, but we have to live, and we have to live by faith.”

Ex-police chief files complaint EEOC case alleges retaliation in firing of Lone Tree’s top cop By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com Former Lone Tree Police Chief Steve Hasler’s attorney filed a complaint March 18 with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, alleging retaliatory termination. After eight years at the helm of the department, Hasler was dismissed without cause in August 2012 by City Manager Jack Hidahl, which Hasler says was an act of retaliation related to a harassment/hostility complaint against Hidahl. “The city’s position continues to be he was terminated under the contract that allowed the city to do Hasler so without cause,” said City Attorney Gary White. “Beyond that, we’ll just await the EEOC’s determination.” The EEOC is responsible for enforcing federal laws that make it illegal to discriminate against a job applicant or employee because the person complained about discrimination, filed a charge of discrimination, or participated in an employment discrimination investigation or lawsuit. Denver attorney Steven Dawes, an attorney for the Colorado Intergovernmental Risk Sharing Agency (CIRSA), is preparing the city’s response to the claim. CIRSA provides municipal insurance policies. Lone Tree is a CIRSA member. Mills did not return calls requesting comment, and Hasler had little to say. “It’s a matter of course (to file with the EEOC),” Hasler said, adding that if the commission decided to take his case, “they’ll pursue it on my behalf.” According to the EEOC’s website, “Our role in an investigation is to fairly and accurately assess the allegations in the charge and then make a finding. If we find that discrimination has occurred, we will try to Hasler continues on Page12

Archery program aims for fun Middle school becomes first in county to have club By Ryan Boldrey

rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com Rocky Heights Middle School is right on target with the birth of its archery program. After receiving a grant from the Easton Foundation to launch the program, the school became the first in Douglas County to shoot its collective arrows skyward and even hosted the Olympic Archery in Schools state competition April 20. “It took a little while to get things in motion, but the turnout and the involvement has been just overwhelming,” said head coach Rodney Graham. “With `Hunger Games,’ movies like `Brave’ coming out, with the Olympics — which I think was probably the biggest draw — I figured we would get a pretty good pull and we did.” When the program was initiated in January, Graham and assistant coach Dave Calloway had 150 students express interest in participating. Sixty of those showed a commitment to sticking with it, but the program only had room for 32 students. “We took what we could,” Graham said. “We did a lottery drawing and pulled kids’

Hope for fireworks could be dud City debates alternatives after years of problems By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com Lone Tree’s traditional Fourth of July celebration could end on a different note in 2013. In anticipation of another potentially dangerous wildfire season, city council members debated alternatives to the fireworks display — including a laser light show — during their April 16 meeting. “Maybe we just won’t do fireworks this year,” Mayor Jim Gunning said. “I think there’s something to be said for not even planning fireworks with the backdrop of the drought.” In 2012, with wildfires still raging in some parts of Colorado, Lone Tree canceled the display but went ahead with the rest of its

popular Independence Day festivities. The city instead held a separate celebration and fireworks display over Labor Day weekend. With a repeat of last summer’s conditions threatening, fireworks company Western Enterprises said it would be flexible on a date for the display. But Gunning said perhaps the city should consider something entirely different, suggesting a laser light show or some other form of entertainment. “I would like to look at some kind of backup evening like that,” he said. Not everyone was enthusiastic about the idea. “I haven’t seen a laser light show that’s met expectations,” City Manager Jack Hidahl said. “It looked more like a screen saver on an old computer.” “I think (fireworks) is a tradition,” Councilmember Kim Monson said. “I think our residents would be pretty disappointed if

we didn’t make an effort.” Gunning emphasized he’s only urging council to consider options, pointing out that 2012 was the fifth year in a row that Lone Tree’s fireworks had been canceled, cut short or derailed by fire or rainstorms. “Since I’ve been here, it’s been kind of a hit and miss,” he said. City staff suggested the idea of switching gears for the summer holiday. “The current drought conditions have put the City of Lone Tree on alert as to whether or not to move forward with our current fireworks proposed contract,” says a staff report presented to council members. Staff options if fireworks are canceled included a repeat of last year — adding another Sweetwater Park event later in the summer — creating a late fall or winter event at the Lone Tree Arts Center, or holding off on the display until Independence

Day 2014. The 2013 Labor Day display, which include an ‘80s cover band before the fireworks, was a hit with residents. But it came at a cost. “The rescheduled September event cost an additional $11,713.90,” according to staff. “This amount included all necessary Sweetwater Park infrastructure and a concert leading up to the display.” An April 1 report from National Interagency Fire Center described wildland fire potential as normal in the Rocky Mountain region, with some above-normal conditions in southern Colorado from May to July. “Generally warmer and drier conditions are expected mainly during June for the area, with fire potential to be at least normal by the core fire season of late May and continuing through June into early July,” the report says.

ACT test day is teen rite of passage High school juniors statewide tackle college admissions test By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com Days before the April 23 ACT test, ThunderRidge High School junior Sophie Pepin already was nervous. “A lot of scholarships and other things rely on it,” said Pepin. Along with high school juniors statewide, Pepin took the ACT, a national college admissions test. Many colleges and universities weigh a student’s ACT score along with grade-point average, class rank and other factors in determining admission. Pepin hopes to go to the Colorado School of Mines, where the average ACT score for entering freshman is 29. A perfect score on

the four-part test is 36. She’s been preparing for the ACT for the last two months, scoring a 32 and 31 in her two practice tests. “If I don’t get a perfect score, I’d be fine with that,” she said. Preparation for the ACT goes beyond students. A room is designated for the test in each Douglas County School District high school. Desks must be spaced far enough apart to prevent cheating. Books, posters and other materials that may distract students must be covered or removed from the room. A test supervisor is assigned to monitor students during the four-hour exam. On the day of the test, students have to show the supervisor photo identification to be allowed into the testing room. Sweaty palms and anxiety are more common than not. “The pressure is there,” said Dan Mc-

Minimee, assistant superintendent of secondary education for the Douglas County School District. “A lot of this is also self-directed pressure from the student. I think a lot of kids in Douglas County have that competitive drive in them. They know what this test means.” But it is not necessarily the most important factor for college admissions officers. “The ACT and SAT score are one piece of the puzzle for a student in determining what college to go to,” McMinimee said. “It would help if you got a 36. But it’s probably not going to exclude you from the college of your choice if you don’t do as well on it as you thought you were going to do. In general, the scores that Douglas County students get will qualify them for multiple different colleges.” While the in-school test is offered only once, students can take the test repeatedly

District seeks dismissal of teachers’ suit Union battles hiring practices, termination of sick-leave bank By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com The Douglas County School District filed a motion April 17 to dismiss the Douglas County Federation’s lawsuits that allege violations of unfair hiring practices and termination of a sick-leave bank. DCSD’s motion says the teachers’ union is attempting to litigate issues tied to two now-expired collective bargaining agreements (CBA), and that the DCF has no legal footing for some of its allegations. The teachers’ union filed two lawsuits in February, saying DCSD “illegally refused to consider teachers for job openings after their positions had been eliminated,” and asking it to reimburse teachers for sick

leave days donated to a sick-leave bank that the district terminated. Several teachers who say they were harmed by the alleged violations also are named as plaintiffs in the union’s lawsuit. In its motion to dismiss, DCSD says the union lacks standing in claiming the district refused to interview laid-off teachers for new positions or meet with the union to develop policies regarding teacher displacement. “In short, plaintiffs invoke faulty legal theories and rely on expired contractual obligations,” the document reads. DCSD did not respond to emails requesting comment on their motion to dismiss. In February, school board president John Carson called the lawsuits frivolous. But union president Brenda Smith said DCF’s claims aren’t tied to the CBA’s status. “Part of the downsizing procedures under Colorado law is they need to create a priority hiring pool, and they didn’t do

that,” she said of DCSD. “They didn’t follow the law.” According to language included in 2010’s Colorado Senate Bill 191, any active, non-probationary teacher who has been deemed effective and hasn’t yet secured a position “shall be a member of a priority hiring pool, which … shall ensure the non-probationary teacher a first opportunity to interview for available positions for which he or she is qualified in a school district.” But in its motion to dismiss, DCSD says enforcement of those statutes falls to the Colorado Board of Education, “a designated remedy that excludes all others,” according to DCSD’s motion. On the sick-leave bank claim, the DCF says Douglas County teachers had a longstanding practice of donating one sick day a year to the bank for themselves or others to use. The union says DCSD terminated the sick bank in July 2012, including about

10,000 accumulated sick leave days. DCSD also alleges the union “failed to exhaust administrative remedies” in coming to an agreement on the sick-leave bank, that those benefits were not vested, and a cash-out provision for the unused days wasn’t included in the CBA. “Neither the teachers’ nor the classified employees’ CBA expressly provided that sick-leave bank benefits would survive the contract’s termination,” according to the motion. Consequently, teachers who have fallen ill since the CBA’s July 2012 expiration aren’t entitled to use the bank, according to DCSD. Smith disagrees, again saying the CBA’s lapsed status isn’t a factor. “The sick-leave bank was owned by the teachers,” she said. “I truly believe it belongs to them.” The district’s longstanding agreement with the teachers’ union expired in 2012 after more than 100 hours of fruitless negotiation.

School board tips hat to Margaret Thatcher Members call former British leader role model for students By Jane Reuter

‘I think she goes down in history as one of the greatest champions of freedom in the 20th century.’

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com The Douglas County School Board paid tribute to former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher during their April 16 board meeting, upholding her as a role model for Douglas County students. The board adopted a resolution commemorating her life and legacy that described her as “a relentless champion of freedom, who fought tirelessly for free enterprise, for the economic policies that foster individual opportunity and global prosperity, and for human liberty and dignity throughout the world.” Thatcher, who died April 8, led the Conservative Party from 1975 to 1990 and re-

John Carson, board president mained involved in British politics after her resignation. She was an influential, often controversial leader, and a friend and political ally of former President Ronald Reagan. Through the Education Act of 1980, Thatcher enacted policies allowing parents to choose schools, and providing public money for children to attend private schools. Similarly, the Douglas County School Board’s Choice Scholarship Program, now likely headed to the Colorado Supreme Court for a verdict on its constitutionality, allowed parents to use state school

funding toward tuition at private schools. “I think she’s a tremendous role model for young people, particularly girls and women,” board president John Carson said. “I think she goes down in history as one of the greatest champions of freedom in the 20th century. “It’s interesting some of the issues she talks about are the same ones we’re talking about in education today, 42 years later.” Board Member Craig Richardson praised Thatcher for “strong, principled, morally clear and brilliant leadership.”

“I think so much of education has an implicit and imbedded question, `Who are your heroes?’” Richardson said. “Margaret Thatcher is a hero for me and many members of our board. I hope our students will find a champion, someone in whom they believe during the troubles and difficult times this life produces. That’s why I think it’s quite natural we express ourselves on this occasion.” Board Member Kevin Larsen read the resolution aloud, which commended Thatcher for opposing communism throughout the world and being “a great friend of America.” The resolution concluded by saying the board “commends (Thatcher) as a role model for the young people of the Douglas County School District as they strive to become future leaders in Colorado and our nation, and as they seek to make a positive and enduring difference in the course of human progress.”

Sheriffs to sue over gun laws

Columbine victim’s father sees ed to‘sour grapes’ in complaints

combank,By Rhonda Moore nd armoore@ourcoloradonews.com days The list of sheriffs who plan to challenge sifiedthe state’s new gun-control legislation has thatgrown to include at least 40 of Colorado’s 62 e thesheriffs. o the Elbert County Sheriff Shayne Heap, Douglas County Sheriff David Weaver and allenArapahoe County Sheriff Grayson Robinaren’tson are among the group seeking to overCSD.turn the recently passed state laws, which CBA’sset limits on ammunition magazines and expand background checks for firearms y thetransfers. t be- Independence Institute attorney David Kopel, who mentis directing the planned 2012lawsuit, says the laws run nego-counter to the Second Amendment and “violate the highest law in the country, the Constitution of the Weaver United States of America.” Heap and Weaver both claim the new laws will make it harder for law-abiding people to s andefend themselves. Kopel claims the backo areground-check law could criminalize the acgarettions of innocent people. mem- Their words ring hollow to Tom Mauser, s willwhose son Daniel was killed at Columbine theyHigh School and who serves as spokesman ficultfor gun-control group Colorado Ceasefire. hink “It’s all nonsense,” said Mauser, who s oncharacterized the sheriffs’ claims as “sour grapes.” e res- The sheriffs simply “don’t like that those tchertwo bills passed” and “they have become a t thevoice for the NRA and Rocky Mountain Gun rica.”Owners,” Mauser said. aying Kopel’s courtroom experience on Secroleond Amendment issues includes a 2008 Suoug-preme Court case, The District of Columbia ve tov. Heller, in which the court ruled that the d ourDistrict of Columbia could not ban handsitiveguns or self-defense with a handgun in a se ofperson’s home. “They’ve outlawed an accessory that is essential to the use of a firearm,” Kopel said of Colorado’s limit on magazines. “We are challenging the background-check bill for temporary and innocent transfers. With the new law, if your friend from out of town comes to visit and you loan him your gun to hunt, you’re a criminal. That is overreaching and unreasonable.”

r

Kopel’s institute will represent the sheriffs free of charge. Weaver stated his position in an April 5 letter released by the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office. “I don’t think the laws will make people safer,” he wrote. “Tighter gun laws will not prevent criminals from getting guns. The laws will only make it harder for citizens to defend themselves.” Heap echoed Weaver’s sentiments, calling the laws “unenforceable.” Heap posted an online video criticizing the legislation that garnered close to 500,000 hits. “Extreme Democratic legislators have unilaterally decided that making it harder for you to defend yourself will somehow make you safer, or at least make them feel better,” Heap said. Mauser finds the arguments by the sheriffs and their lawyer empty. “They think (the gun-control laws) are difficult to enforce, as if there are no other laws that are difficult to enforce,” he said. The Supreme Court ruled that the Second Amendment grants an individual right to gun ownership, but that restrictions are allowable, Mauser said. “You can’t pass a law as restrictive as Washington, D.C., but this isn’t anything like Washington, D.C.,” he said. He said the Colorado laws provide “reasonable restrictions to keep guns out of the hands of the wrong people” and said the background-check law provides “exceptions for temporary transfers or transfers within families.” Mauser said the sheriffs are “good at dreaming up other kinds of circumstances” to criticize the laws. “You can’t account for every possible situation someone will dream up,” he said. “They just don’t like the basic concept of background checks.” “As for the magazines, the Supreme Court said you could have restrictions on what they call dangerous weapons,” Mauser said. “Most Americans would say assault weapons and high-capacity magazines are dangerous weapons, and Colorado acted on it.” The most common form of self-defense with a gun involves handguns, he said, adding: “Handguns aren’t outlawed.” “If there’s anyone overreaching, it’s them,” Mauser said of the group opposing gun-control laws. “It’s all nonsense.” Kopel said he expects to file the suit around the second week of May, but would not say which court he will file in. Assistant editor Scott Gilbert contributed to this report.

SHERIFF’S REPORT Highlands Ranch home eyeballed

A Lone Tree resident who is building a home in the 10800 block of Wintersong Way reported to the sheriff’s office April 6 that a group of teenagers had attempted to enter the home she is building but were stopped and scared off by a neighbor. A group of seven teenage males who pulled into the driveway in a white SUV were questioned by the neighbor as two boys ran around the back and the others waited in the front. When the neighbor told them the homebuilder had cameras inside, they ran back to the vehicle and drove off.

Credit card fraud rampant

The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office received three reports of identity theft and fraud between April 8 and 10. A Highlands Ranch man had someone open a Victoria’s Secret credit card in his name in Manhattan Beach, Calif., and had to fight off $752.67 in charges. A Larskspur woman found out someone in Texas had been using her Social Security number and maiden name, ringing up $436 in utility bills after being sent to collections. And a Parker man found out that $1,616 of charges was charged to his MasterCard and his address had been changed to a residence in Texas.

Author seeks better world for children Highlands Ranch writer aims to inspire students By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcolorado news.com As a fourth-grader, Justin Matott was the new kid in school with temporary physical challenges that gave him a limp and required an eye patch. That made him an easy target for bullies at his school. Matott, a Highlands Ranch resident, turned those bad experiences around, and now tries to pass the lessons he learned on to other kids. “I was very fortunate to have a dad who understood how you look into somebody and find those talents,” he said. “He was one who taught me how to make the kids at school laugh. I started using my storytelling talent and took back my power basically.” The author and speak-

‘I try to be impactful. And it seems to be working.’ Justin Matott, children’s book author er spoke at Castle Rock’s Soaring Elementary April 19, one of many visits he’s made to the school. With 15 children’s books to his name, Matott speaks at 35 to 50 schools each year, encouraging kids to write, read and treat one another with kindness. “I try to be impactful,” he said. “And it seems to be working.” His talks often focus on the main character in his six-book series, Gabriel Peters, who overcomes physical drawbacks and pursues a life of adventure. The fourth book in the series will be released in May. After a school visit last week, a seventh-grade teacher told the author that one of her students had left

the assembly in tears because he’d recognized himself in one of Matott’s tales. “His reputation had been a bully for a long time,” Matott said. “He all of a sudden saw the faces of the kids he was treating so badly. He told (his counselor) he didn’t want to be that person anymore and wanted to find a different way to deal with his anger issues.” Knowing he’s made a difference for some kids is a sweet reward. “I can’t think of anything, other than seeing my sons becoming the men I was raising them to be, that would please me more,” Matott said. “I don’t have a huge enough ego to think I’m changing a kid’s life permanently, but I know I’m

changing a portion of a kid’s life.” The 51-year-old author has pursued his writing and speaking passions full time since 1997, when he left his corporate sales job with a publishing contract in hand. That first book, “My Garden Visits,” was a tribute to his mother that Matott selfpublished three weeks before Mother’s Day. In three weeks, 4,700 of the 5,000 copies sold, and Random House offered to publish the book. “It was like a Cinderella thing,” Matott said. “It was awesome to be able to walk into my boss’s office and say, `You’ve got one more month of my life and I’m done with this.’”

Colorado becoming global marketplace Numerous factors behind economic growth, expansion By Ryan Boldrey

rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com Colorado is beginning to emerge as a global marketplace, and a lot of that is being attributed to innovation, mass transit, and the moderate political state of the state. “Colorado has really become differentiated from other western markets,” said Kate Waggoner, director of enterprise management for CBRE, the world’s largest commercial real estate firm. “The whole world is coming to Denver. We used to really compete with Phoenix and Las Vegas, but we are separating ourselves from them.” Waggoner said over the past five years an average Waggoner of six to eight major companies moved their headquarters into the Denver metro area per year, highlighted by 10 companies coming in last year. “I can’t wait to see what is announced this year,” she said. “Our brand is good right now. We rank high in innovation. We are a highly educated state, and on the political spectrum, companies don’t want to come to a whack-job conservative state or a whack-job liberal state. … Colorado also ranks No. 2 (behind New York state) in the country in mass transit, which positions us for a lot more future growth.” Waggoner, speaking to a group of investors from the Northwest Douglas County Economic Development Corporation, said

the state’s modest incentives are still holding it back a little, but that the area has a lot of positives working for it right now, especially at a time when national growth is still occurring at a moderate clip. “I’ve been getting a lot of positive feedback about the soft incentives,” Douglas County Commissioner Jill Repella responded, suggesting that more attention should be paid to those details when data is collected. “Time is money and we’ve received a lot of very positive feedback in Douglas County for helping companies get open quickly.” Waggoner said that while technology and aerospace industries continue to come into the area, health-care jobs should provide the most opportunities in the region in 2013. The state is also turning the corner when it comes to industrial business, and in 2012 industrial companies leased or bought 4.2 million more square feet than they vacated throughout the Denver metro area. “I think for northwest Douglas County it shows us what types of things we can focus on along the Santa Fe corridor on the industrial and manufacturing side, and also the commercial development in the future town center of Highlands Ranch,” said Amy Sherman, president of the NDCEDC. Another would-be positive for Douglas County, Waggoner said, is that there are ballot initiatives on the table that would raise Denver property taxes even more. If those pass, they will widen the gap between the communities even more, making the cost to do work downtown that much more expensive than it is to do in the south metro area, an area that is already much more successful than other suburban areas nationwide.

Educators aim to build skills for future Challenges abound in preparing for unknown jobs By Deborah Grigsby

dgrigsby@ourcoloradonews.com If Colorado wants a place in the growing global economy, then its education system must deliver the skills needed for students to succeed as 21st-century citizens. The problem, according to a threedistrict panel of educators hosted by the South Metro Denver Chamber of Commerce on April 19, is that local schools are trying to ready kids for jobs that are yet to exist. “The reality is, our students will compete with students from around the world for the most sought-after opportunities and that’s something of a newer thing in education,” explained Elizabeth Fagen, Douglas County Schools superintendent. “It’s definitely different than when we started back in the industrial revolution.” Along with the economy, Fagen said the kids, themselves, are different. “These kids have never known anything that wasn’t the 21st century, and they’ve also never known a world without technology,” she said. Along with Scott Murphy, Littleton superintendent of schools, and Eric Flor, assistant superintendent for Cherry Creek Schools, Fagen offered an overview of how schools hope to engage business and industry as future partners. Strong partnerships between schools and business innovators may be the key to developing a winning curriculum — a curriculum that’s rich in technology, collaboration, creativity and shared economic success. “It’s not about bricks and mortar,”

Photo by Deborah Grigsby said Flor. “It’s about what experiences are children getting — starting in kindergarten all the way through — that prepare them to be engineers, or whatever it is they want to be.” Panel moderator Lisa D’Ambrosia said education has long been one of the chamber’s prime initiatives. She sees a strong connection between academia and the coming economy. Schools are now looking to the business community and asking it to help define what the future workforce should look like. So, what it is kids need to know to be successful in their lifetime? “We can’t even predict all the jobs that will exist when they graduate, but we can predict the kind of skills they’ll need to be successful, no matter what

those jobs are,” said Fagen. And the Douglas County School District has been reaching out to some of the biggest names on the planet. “Nike, for example, wants people who `obliterate’ boundaries, are risktakers, are smart, passionate curious people, rebels, original thinking,” Fagen said. “So just as the industrial revolution paid attention to what it was the assembly-line mode needed, we want to pay attention to what our business partners want in our students.” “We have a vested interest in education with relationship to the business community,” D’Ambrosia said. “It’s one of the driving forces for bringing jobs here to the south metro Denver area.”

Thanks to a second grant request to Easton written by Graham, there is also an elementary program already underway at Rocky Heights’ feeder schools. Not taking the two gifts from Easton lightly — the foundation provides all the necessary equipment and targets — the Rocky Heights club decided to pay it forward and raised $5,500 at a tournament in early April for the Wounded Warrior Project, a national nonprofit that assists wounded veterans. Graham, who also teaches archery for the Highlands Ranch Community Association, hopes to see other area schools follow suit to increase competition and camaraderie. “It’s really fun to see the mix of kids that go for this,”

he said. “We’ve got a lot of kids that do the traditional sports, and then we have some other kids where traditional sports aren’t their thing. They’ve really embraced archery.” Seventh-graders Ally Pfeiffer and Jacob Buras both compete in other sports, but each is thrilled about the opportunity to partake. “I had done it a couple times at Girl Scout camp and I really enjoyed it, so I decided to come out,” said Ally. “I think it’s really cool that we are the only school that does this, and the fact that we can come into the gym and shoot arrows is a lot of fun.” “I personally like hunting, so it feels kind of natural,” added Jacob, who plays hockey, baseball and football and ranks archery second right behind hockey. “If it’s a sport and it’s competitive I’m in it. ... I just love it, it’s so much fun.”

OPINIONS / YOURS AND OURS

Keep jobs at home, keep businesses at ease The Keep Jobs in Colorado Act appears to have considerable support as it passed the House Monday at the Statehouse. We appreciate suggested improvements touted by the act, House Bill 1292, co-sponsored by state Sen. Andy Kerr, D-Lakewood, but give pause to some of its measures long-term. We agree with Kerr that changes are needed in penalties for companies that do not meet a threshold of requiring 80 percent of all taxpayer-backed state project labor be conducted by Colorado workers. Kerr noted the 80 percent requirement has been on the books since 1933 but a jail penalty for non-complying company owners has not been enforced. We agree virtually every law should have teeth, so it makes sense to amend the law by replacing jail time with civil fees for violations and retooling the compliance process.

OUR VIEW The Keep Jobs in Colorado Act also aims to: • Clamp down on outsourcing of jobs overseas in state contracts with beefed up disclosures on state contractors who use second-party vendors; • Provide stricter enforcement of out-ofstate bid preferences to make sure Colorado companies have all legal advantages available; • Expand the so-called “best value” metrics related to in-state employment and domestically produced materials for contracts that are not co-mingled with federal funds; • Create a central tracking system for state projects — in practice tracking the

QUESTION OF THE WEEK

What are you looking forward to this summer? With Memorial Day only a month away, we asked people at a Highlands Ranch coffee

shop what they are looking forward to the most this summer.

“Selling houses, helping people meet their fitness goals, warmer weather. This (cold weather) is ridiculous.” — Leslie Rogers Peckham, Highlands Ranch

“Having cookouts at the park. And the warmer weather.” — Becky Nazzaro, Lone Tree

“Getting outside to do a lot of my workouts. I run the steps at Red Rocks a lot and I love it. I’m also looking forward to opening my pool.” — Brian Peters, Highlands Ranch

“Swimming in Brian Peters’ pool. And outdoor volleyball. I love everything about summer. I travel a lot, so whenever I come back to Colorado I just feel the air and say ‘aaahhh.’“ — Brian Richter, Highlands Ranch

Wanting to watch a train wreck If Madame Defarge were living in the southwest United States today, where would she be and what would she be doing? Be specific. I want the name of the city and the building, and exactly what she was doing with her hands. Here is a big hint: The last time we saw Madame Defarge she was a tricoteuse. That practically gives it away. Think it over. Some of us like to polka. Some of us like to bowl, shop for shoes, or breed cockatiels. And some of us like to knit. Madame Defarge liked to knit. There’s the giveaway. Madame Defarge would be knitting in the Maricopa County Superior Court Building in Phoenix, and attending the death penalty trial in the case of Arizona vs. Jodi Arias. Defarge was considered the main villain of Charles Dickens’ “A Tale of Two Cities.” As a tricoteuse, or knitting woman, she secretly encoded the names of people to be killed during the French Revolution. I thought of Defarge when I heard that a woman drove six hours just to see the trial. Why would someone do that? To see a melodrama in person? To be on television? Or maybe to see someone sentenced to death? I can understand why someone might have a peripheral interest in a case like this one, or the Trials of the Century that have preceded it. Leopold and Loeb. Bruno Hauptmann. The Rosenbergs. O.J. And more recently, Casey Anthony. I catch up on these cases, but not hour after hour. There’s a channel that is covering the Arias trial all day long. If I found out that my girlfriend was spending eight hours a day watching a trial, I would go out for a pack of cigarettes. One Arias juror was dismissed, and she came back to sit in the courtroom. If she were my girlfriend, I would go out for a carton of cigarettes. The Hauptmann trial was a pip. A circus, really. Hauptmann was accused, convicted, and executed for kidnapping and

murdering Charles Lindbergh’s 20-monthold son. People mobbed the courtroom. Some climbed in through windows. Maybe none of us wants to be in a train wreck, but apparently a lot of us want to see one. I don’t get it. And if I had to listen to the prosecuting attorney in the Arias case for more than a minute or two at a time, I think I might want to get into Thelma and Louise’s back seat just before they went to the worm restaurant. The closing defense argument in the case of Leopold and Loeb, who kidnapped and killed a 14-year-old boy in their quest to commit a “perfect crime,” might have been worth hearing in person. Clarence Darrow said, about Loeb, “This terrible crime was inherent in his organism, and it came from some ancestor. Is any blame attached because somebody took Nietzsche’s philosophy seriously and fashioned his life upon it? It is hardly fair to hang a 19-yearold boy for the philosophy that was taught him at the university.” I am sure that Darrow had a rough idea beforehand what he was going to say, but I doubt that he read that from a script. To be able to speak with such clarity on the spot would have made a big impression upon me. It worked on the judge too. He spared the lives of Leopold and Loeb. The case from start to finish makes the Arias trial look like an afternoon soap. One attractive Arias spectator was spotted by Dr. Drew, and that night she was on his program, looking like she had spent the Smith continues on Page 13

most costly materials in public works projects, such as items made from iron, steel and related manufactured goods. In light of these values, we recognize the arguments of some Republicans and others that it can be a difficult process ensuring that projects involve Coloradobased materials. In one of our stories earlier this month, Rep. Ray Scott, R-Grand Junction, stated flatly there is “no way in this free market system that everyone is going to be truthful.” Sad but true. Further we acknowledge it is highly problematic for contractors to know and document the sources of all materials. As for tracking payroll, that is not as much of a challenge, but more paperwork means increasing staff time and cost for contractors. Overall, the act’s key measures can in

Hospitals are grounds for hope Over the past 17-plus years, I have either been treated personally at local hospitals or have had family members and friends end up in the clinic, emergency room or hospital. And, over these past 17 years, I have talked to members of our community and many of you about our experiences at the different hospitals. Many of you have even sent me an email over the past few years sharing your experiences. Based on my own firsthand experiences with family and friends and all of the unsolicited feedback I have received, I am happy to report that the teams at our local hospitals are doing an incredible job in caring for patients. With some bad press surrounding hospitals and doctors and the recognized brokenness with some of the elements of the health-care system, we

have been truly blessed with some of the most talented, caring, and compassionate doctors, nurses, technicians and support staff in health care. And as a resident, their performance gives me hope for health care. Even the volunteers at our hospitals seem to go out of their way to make sure patients and family are taken care of.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Lone Tree lags on bike lanes

Lone Tree is a wonderful city, and we love living here, but bike lanes are almost non-existent. We question whether Lone Tree can win any city awards with such a lack of detail to the important issue of making it bike-friendly. Even the new RidgeGate has no bike lanes. RidgeGate prides itself on being a live-in community with most amenities nearby. However, one must either walk or have car/bus transportation unless, as a biker, you are willing to ride without the benefit of bike friendly lanes.

that is awesome and speaks to the culture of the hospitals and vision of the leadership teams. Having had to deal with a very significant health-care issue in my life recently, unfortunately I have found myself spending more and more time in hospitals, doctor’s offices and clinics as the primary caregiver for my wife. I am reminded each day and during each visit just how hard our health-care professionals work and how their amazing gifts of caring and compassion are tested multiple times per day. Sometimes they deal with simple illnesses, broken bones or sprains, and sometimes trauma and much more serious situations, including life-threatening conditions or injuries.

caring for the patient, I am simply in awe of the level of sincerity, love and technical ability of those I observe. Conversely, just as in any serviceoriented business, I see the patients or family members of the patients become disruptive, abusive, belligerent and impatient as they bark out demands and treat their potential caregivers with complete disregard for the genuine effort of care being given. These same patients and family members do not understand how others observe their behavior and how damaging it is for the health and well-being of the patients who are there to get better. Not to mention how it impacts the morale of the clinic, the staff, or the other patients and families. If we are to have hope for health care, I would ask that instead of pointing the finger of blame at how “broken” health care is regarding insurance, access to information, and patient care, that we begin by building a winning and positive

relationship with the people who are immediately in front of us, our nurses, doctors, technicians and support staff. Together we can focus on the patient, focus on the care needed, and work towards the best outcome possible. Kudos to these hospitals for being such a great place for all of those who find themselves needing care. They are wonderful institutions with amazing patients and families from our community and incredible staff and leadership, working together and providing hope for healthcare. I know some will have their stories of success and others will share their challenges, I would love to hear both at gotonorton@gmail.com, and when we work collectively with our healthcare providers it is always a better than good week.

Sooner or later we all get called to jury duty. I was. There was a very well-made video we had to watch first, that tried to soften the major life interruption we were about to experience. I am guessing that some people

would pay to sit on a death penalty case jury.

Renew, renovate for perfect lawn By Melinda Myers

Special to Colorado Community Media The extreme heat and drought of 2012 was hard on lawns and gardens. “Many gardeners are facing a blank slate of bare soil, masses of dead patches that were once lawn or a bit of grass interspersed in a sea of weeds,” says gardening expert Melinda Myers. Myers recommends following these steps to improve lawns this season. Start this spring to renovate or improve your weather-worn lawn. Remember that water is critical to get newly seeded and sodded lawns to survive. So be prepared to help nature along with the recovery effort. Evaluate the damage. Then use the checklist below to find the best course of action to aid the ailing lawn. If the lawn is more than 60 percent weeds or bare soil, it’s probably time to start over. Use this opportunity to create a great foundation for growing a healthy lawn. Kill off the existing vegetation, add several inches of organic matter such as compost or peat moss and a low nitrogen slow release fertilizer into the top six

pings on the lawn. They return moisture, nutrients, and organic matter to the soil. Repair small dead and bare patches as needed. Use a lawn patch kit, grass seed and mulch. For small spots, loosen the soil surface, sprinkle grass seed and lightly rake. Or mix a handful of grass seed in a bucket of topsoil. Sprinkle the mix over the soil surface. Do a bit more soil preparation when renovating larger dead areas in the lawn. Remove or kill any weeds that have filled in these areas. Till two inches of compost, peat moss or other organic matter into the top six inches of soil. Sow seed, rake and mulch or lay sod. Overseed thin and sparse lawns. First, core aerate the lawn to improve soil conditions and increase seed-to-soil contact. Spread grass seed over the aerated lawn and water as needed. Or rent a slit seeder or hire a professional with this type of equipment. These machines slice through the soil and drop the grass seed in place, increasing the seed-to-soil contact that is needed for good germination. Core aerate lawns that have more than a half-inch of thatch,

to eight inches of soil, and rake smooth. Select more drought tolerant grasses like rhizomatous (turftype) tall fescues, buffalo grass, and Habiturf native lawn mix. Make sure the grass is suited to the climate and plant according to the label. Then sow the seeds, lightly rake and mulch or lay sod. Water often enough to keep the soil moist until the seeds sprout or the sod roots into the soil below. Then water thoroughly when the top few inches of soil are crumbly, but slightly moist to encourage deep roots. Fertilize new, existing and stressed lawns with a low-nitrogen slow-release fertilizer like Milorganite. It won’t harm stressed lawns, young seedlings or newly laid sod. It will encourage slow steady growth. Southern lawns can be fertilized in April and again in early June. In the north fertilize around Memorial Day. And if 2013 turns into another hot dry summer, it won’t burn the lawn. Mow high to encourage deeply rooted grass that is more drought-tolerant and pest-resistant. And mow often, removing only a third of the total height. Be sure to leave these short clip-

Five projects to increase a home’s value By StatePoint Selling a home can be challenging. The good news is there are a few tweaks that can give homeowners a serious leg up on the competition. With the warmer months being the most active time of year to buy and sell real estate, it’s important to ensure your home is seen in the best light possible. “Despite the influx of homes for sale this season, the process of buying and selling a home can be simple, efficient and enjoyable,” says Wendy Froehlich of Homes. com, one of the nation’s top online real estate listing and lifestyle resources. According to Homes.com, the top five projects that improve home equity are:

Her Outdoor spaces com. Curb appeal adds immediate interest to any home’s exterior. According to Remodeling Magazine, improving outdoor spaces can increase a home’s resale value dollarfor-dollar. Frame the front walkway with items that add visual interest, like flowers, potted plants, large rocks of various sizes and solar-powered lights. If yard space is scarce, hanging plants are another great, low-cost option. Extend outdoor projects to the back-

yard — power-wash decks or patios and clean screened-in areas. Kitchen Kitchen renovations can cost anywhere from $20,000 to $40,000 and more. If that’s not in your budget, upgrading cabinetry and paint does wonders to liven up even the most outdated spaces. Add crown or decorative molding to “shape out” the kitchen cabinets and modernize the space. Repaint cabinets, or add new hardware to add visual interest and brighten dark spaces. Basement Basement improvements can optimize livable space and protect the home from extreme weather, mold, moisture damage and mites. Whether transitioning the basement to a home gym, office or family room, the basics remain the same: insulate well and waterproof. Maximize space by including shelving and storage units. If possible, make the space feel open and inviting by creating an open stairwell, a trick that visually connects the upper part of the house with the lower, and filters natural light into the space. Mudroom Mudrooms ensure families stay clutterfree and have a dedicated space to drop stuff as they come through the door. They can also make potential homeowners feel welcome upon entry. While knocking out a wall to create a mudroom is expensive and labor-intensive, you can make a “drop zone” by simply anchoring a bench to an empty wall and hanging labeled storage units. Making homes stand out in a sea of real estate listings isn’t always easy. More tips on increasing home values can be found at www.Homes.com.

Plan for aerial fire fleet unfunded Senate panel passes bill, but money isn’t included

CODE RED WILDFIRE NOTIFICATION

By Vic Vela

vvela@ourcoloradonews.com A state Senate panel on April 19 passed legislation that seeks to create an aerial firefighting fleet, but it did not give the measure the wings it needs to fly. The Senate Appropriations Committee approved Senate Bill 245, but it did not provide the funding necessary to purchase air tankers and tactical planes that would make up the Colorado Firefighting Air Corps. The aircraft, which would have been purchased from the federal government, would have cost $17.5 million. Sen. Pat Steadman, D-Denver, a committee member, told the bill’s sponsors that he understands how much work they’ve put into the bill. “And yet it seems like there’s still some more work that needs to be done to bring this idea to fruition,” he said. The bill’s sponsors — Sens. Cheri Jahn, D-Wheat Ridge, and Sen. Steve King, RGrand Junction — expressed disappointment that they couldn’t get the fleet funded. But they were pleased that the committee at least passed the bill, in hopes of the state finding the money down the road. “I am willing to get this through this building in any way, shape or form I can,” Jahn said. Last year’s Colorado wildfire season was particularly devastating, and forecasters have predicted another hot and dry summer. But, the cost of the bill has always been a concern. King said he met with Gov. John Hickenlooper’s staff several times over the last nine months to discuss funding for the measure. However, King acknowledged that he never met with the governor personally and that he now wishes he had.

If we aren’t successful, we have the authority to file a lawsuit to protect the rights of individuals and the interests of the public.” If the EEOC doesn’t take the case, Hasler said he and his attorney will file suit against the city directly. Lone Tree officials still have not offered an explanation for Hasler’s firing, though

“Maybe I should have sat in his office and waited for him to come out and say, we need to talk about wildfires,” King said. King was critical of a $10 million wildfire mitigation grant program that the governor and the General Assembly has set aside for dealing with issues such as the damage caused by bark beetles in Colorado’s forests. King argued that fire mitigation shouldn’t carry greater weight than firefighting preparation. Republican Sen. Ted Harvey of Highlands Ranch, a committee member, expressed “disappointment that we haven’t had more engagement by the governor on this issue,” and said that it’s up to the Legislature to take the lead on funding the measure. “This is a serious issue,” Harvey said. “This is life and death. This is national security. It is incumbent (for this legislative body) to force the hand of the administration to find the money and do whatever it is to make this work.” But Sen. Mary Hodge, D-Brighton, the committee’s chairwoman, defended Hickenlooper. “I’m sorry it’s become an indictment on the governor,” she said. “We control the purse strings in this building.” Hickenlooper spokesman Eric Brown said in an email to Colorado Community Media that the governor’s office supports “the concept of a firefighting fleet and continue to work with lawmakers on the proposed legislation.” “We are also working with the Colorado Division of Fire Prevention and Control on the idea,” Brown wrote. “There is one significant outstanding issue: Where does the money come from?” The bill passed the committee 7-0. That vote was preceded by another vote where the three Republicans on the committee were unsuccessful in getting the funding added to the bill, which now heads to the full Senate.

Hidahl said it was “not an arbitrary or capricious decision.” CIRSA investigated the 2011 allegations from a female police department employee who said Hidahl created a hostile working environment, and found the incident did not rise to that level. Hasler filed the claim for her with Hidahl, and said his relationship with the city manager steadily deteriorated after that. CIRSA provides municipal insurance policies. Lone Tree is a CIRSA member. Former Lakewood Police Cmdr. Jeff Streeter was sworn in as Lone Tree’s new police chief March 4.

Time your move right to save money B

uying a new home is the most expensive purchase a person is likely to make in his or her lifetime. It also can be one of the more stressful. The Employee Relocation Council states that moving is the third most stressful event in life, following death and divorce. But a well-timed move can reduce stress and save money. Moving during certain times of the year can result in considerable savings. Moving during the summer, when children are out of school and the weather is nice, can make a move more manageable. Keep in mind that because late spring and summer are the peak moving seasons, they also tend to be more expensive. Many moving companies and truck rental agencies will charge a premium if you use their services during the summer. Furthermore, crews may change in the summer when students on vacation could fill in for regular, more experienced movers.

High prices are not only reserved for those who buy a new house during the spring and summer. Renters may find spring and summer is also the peak season for rentals. Many apartment managers can attest that the dates between June 2 and August 30 are quite busy in terms of apartment turnover. College students are more likely to move as soon as the academic year ends, and many landlords plan leases to expire in the summer months to ensure that re-renting places will be easier thanks to a flooded apartment market. According to Apartment Wiz, a Houston-based apartment locating service, although there might be greater apartment availability during the warm-weather months, it also means greater competition between prospective tenants. That greater competition can drive up prices. But apartments are harder to fill in the fall or at the onset of winter. That’s because

many people do not want the hassle of moving once school has started or the weather has chilled. Landlords who are stuck paying utilities and advertising fees for vacant apartments are far more likely to negotiate rent prices, lease terms and even security deposits during the winter in an effort to fill the apartment quickly. People sitting with homes on the market are also more likely to negotiate during cooler months when foot traffic has fizzled out. That can make shopping for a home in the fall advantageous to home buyers. Here are some other tips to reduce stress and save money when moving into a new home or apartment. • Move mid-week. Weekends are a prime time for truck rentals and moving companies. Pick a Tuesday or a Wednesday to move, and you’re much more likely to find an available moving service (even during peak mov-

ing months); you may even be able to negotiate a lower rate. • Pick a mid-month moving date. Many people move at the beginning of the month when leases are up or after mortgage payments are made. Fewer people move in the middle of the month, so you might find more affordable moving deals if you can wait a few extra weeks. • Schedule a fall or winter move. The American Moving and Storage Association says half of all moves occur during one-third of the year -- between the beginning of May and Labor Day. Beat the rush by moving outside of these dates. • Get an early start. Many people underestimate the amount of time it takes to actually move their belongings. Try to schedule a moving company to come very early in the morning to give you ample time to pack up the truck and unpack at your new home. ■ Metro Creative Services

Teens learn film skills Mountain Vista class helps students hone career goals By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com Will Mustin knew in early childhood he wanted to be in the movie business. The Highlands Ranch resident is now a freshman at University of Colorado at Boulder, majoring in filmmaking, and he credits his Mountain Vista High School film class for helping him put his dream into motion. “Wanting to be a director came out of taking that class,” Mustin said. “It really confirmed I love film and that’s absolutely what I want to do in the future.” It also just may have given him the leg up he’ll need. “Even now I talk to people who are in the film program here who say, `I didn’t have a film class in my high school,’” Mustin said. “It’s a competitive field, and I feel like I do sort of have that upper hand because of it.” MVHS Theater Director Jeremy Goldson launched the hands-on filmmaking class, DCTV Academy, a few years ago. At the suggestion of a former student enrolled in the University of California film school, he modeled it after their college-level film production class. “As far as I know, there aren’t very many other people who are teaching film production from this sort of creativity as opposed to technology standpoint,” Goldson said. “There definitely are some students taking it for fun, but we end up sending two to four students a year directly into film school.” Ryan Taylor plans to be among them.

The senior hopes to attend the Colorado Film School in Denver and become a director. Like Mustin, he started his exploration into film making at a young age, and quickly was hooked. When he discovered MVHS offered a filmmaking class, “It was like a dream come true,” he said. As a final project, Taylor is directing a movie that classmate Alex Damle wrote. The dramatic comedy is based on an initially suicidal teenage boy who meets a girl moments before his intended final act. “It’s more in the style of John Hughes, `The Breakfast Club’ as opposed to slapstick comedy,” Damle said. “There are definitely some darker themes running through the film.” In these last weeks of school, the students are focused on shooting final scenes. Goldson leaves the seniors — some in their third year of his class — largely on their own. He plays a more direct role with new students. “The first semester is figuring out how to translate your idea from your brain into a finished film,” he said. Students must make three short films from the idea stage to finished product. Because the films are dialogue-free, “They really look at film as a visual medium, and how they can communicate their story without voiceover or text,” Goldson said. “It’s definitely a challenge. It drives them nuts. But they make really great films. At the end of the semester, everybody has made three movies and everybody’s tried all the different jobs.” That kind of experience is vital for those

Ryan Taylor, left, and Alex Damle set up a shot during production of the movie that Damle wrote and Taylor is directing. wanting to work in the field. “It’s incredibly competitive and hard to get into, especially into the mainstream Hollywood film industry,” Goldson said. Mustin knows it won’t be easy, but is confident he’ll succeed. “It might be just stupid confidence, but I think that’s the way you have to be,” he said. “Be confident in what you’re doing and hope people see it the same way you do.”

in an events center not far away ‘Star Wars’ comes to Castle Rock By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com Douglas County Libraries will celebrate all things “Star Wars” on May 4 at the Douglas County Events Center, 500 Fairgrounds Drive, Castle Rock. Paper engineer Matthew Reinhart will demonstrate how he creates his clever and colorful pop-up books, including

“Star Wars: a Pop-up Guide to the Galaxy,” “Mommy?” (co-authored with Maurice Sendak) and “Brava Strega Nona,” (with Tomi DePaola. Reinhart started out in sciences, on a medical school track, but had always been interested in arts and crafts. He met author Robert Saluda during a volunteer project in New York and was persuaded to pursue his art. He studied at Pratt Institute and is very successful in designing pop-up books. The first demonstration will be at 10 a.m. and he will do a second demonstration at 1

p.m. Books will be available for sale at the event, from Tattered Cover Book Store, and Reinhart will sign books after each demonstration. Other activities include crafts, snacks and photo opportunities with “Star Wars” characters. At 11:15, there will be a Radio Disney show. The event is part of the library’s Project LIVE author series. General admission tickets cost $5, available at DouglasCountyLibraries.org. For information, call 303-7917323.

The Rock Christian Academy in Castle Rock has bagged Phil and Willie Robertson, two of the stars of the wildly popular “Duck Dynasty,” A&E’s reality series, for a speaking engagement and fundraiser beginning at 6:30 p.m. May 19 at The Douglas County Events Center. Event organizer and Rock Christian Academy parent Michael Brumbaugh took dead aim at the Robertson clan months ago by contacting the family’s agent and refusing to give up. His persistence paid off. Phil and Willie, part of the family that made its fortune in products for duck hunters, will speak about “Faith, testimony, business, the importance of raising children with biblical principles and a Christian education.” “We need to do a big event every year to continue to fund the scholarship fund,” Brumbaugh said. “I thought about it for a couple of months, then started watching `Duck Dynasty.’ I thought, `These guys are great! I wonder if they do speaking engagements since they come from a Christian family?’” The persistent parent hounded the agent until he got a “confirmed” answer. “When your heart is in something and you believe in something as strong as the Rock Academy, and how God is moving in that school, you fight for what you believe in,” he said. “This year God blessed us with `Duck Dynasty.’” With 8.6 million viewers, A&E’s “Duck Dynasty” is the highest-rated reality show on cable TV. The money raised from the event’s ticket sales will help fund a 10,000-square-foot expansion of the existing building, build the school’s playground and provide financial aid and scholarships to families who can’t afford the $4,700 annual tuition. VIP tickets (with a pre-event meet and greet) are $150; other tickets are $60 for general admission to $80 for “gold seating” right behind the VIP seats.

Elway’s concerts scheduled

The hottest patio of the season is Elway’s at Cherry Creek — no doubt, no argument. Elway’s Cherry Creek summer concerts return with live music, cocktails, the signature menu and beautiful Colorado evenings in the Elways’ backyard starting June 19. These wildly popular outdoor concerts play each Wednesday night from mid-June through late August, including the return of the Railbenders to the Summer Music Series and a special Independence Day July 3 celebration for 2013 featuring local legends The Samples along with special food and cocktails. Appearing this year are several tribute bands including Message in a Bottle, covering The Police; Forever in Blue Jeans, channeling Neil Diamond standards; and Under a Blood Red Sky, who rock out U2 hits. The brotherly harmonies of Something Underground take stage on July 10. And newcomers, Justin Lane Band, will bring hard-hitting country to the backyard while all-girl band The Trishas deal a combination of tight four-part harmonies in an eclectic soulful sound. Fans of funk will enjoy Funkiphino, and That Eighties Band promises their namesake rock. Parker continues on Page 21

Murphey, Lone Tree orchestra join forces Singer-songwriter appearing in two shows at arts center By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com Though Michael Martin Murphey’s musical repertoire extends well beyond the hit single “Wildfire,” he never tires of singing his signature song. “I’m not exaggerating or making this up; I enjoy singing it more and more every day,” he said. “Every time I sing it, people light up. Thank the Lord it wasn’t a song about drinking, depression and divorce (but) a song about a horse and the wide open plains.” Murphey will perform “Wildfire” and other pieces with the Lone Tree Symphony Orchestra May 3 and 4 at the Lone Tree Arts Center. Gov. John Hickenlooper will introduce Murphey during his May 4 performance. The show is a unique blend of cowboy and orchestra music, one Murphey finds natural and appropriate. “You need a big, sweeping, grand sound

to capture the majesty of the Rocky Mountains and the great, wide open plains of our country,” he said. “No one is more excited than me. I love doing this show. I really enjoy my other shows, but when you get to work with anywhere from 48 to 100 musicians and collaborate with them, you walk away humbled and inspired.” Off stage, the 68-year-old rancher divides his time among three homes in Wisconsin, Texas and southern Colorado. He and his wife own 35 brood mares and two studs. One of his daughters is a trainer in Colorado, who prepares Murphey’s horses for competition. He’s devoted to promoting and protecting the ranching and farming lifestyle, and uses proceeds from his musical performances to buy agricultural land. “I support what I love and I believe you’re giving back when you do that,” he said. “You’re adding to America and the world’s food supply and you’re taking care of the land, keeping it open space, not giving it over to some developer. I’m deeply committed to making sure that doesn’t disappear.” Murphey also wrote the theme song and provided some material for a public broadcasting program called “America’s Heart-

land,” that focuses on farmers’ and ranchers’ experiences. Strong as his love of the land is, music remains his first life, and “Wildfire” his most ethereal song. “I dreamed every scene in that song,” he said. “It was so arresting I woke up and wrote it down on a yellow pad. I had this vision of a ghostly, mysterious woman … riding across a dark, flat prairie landscape with the Badlands and the Black Hills in the background. “I really can’t fully tell you what the song means. It’s very symbolic of freedom and escape. But other than that, it’s a mystery to me. I’ve spent the rest of my life trying to figure out what it means.” As Murphey’s dream helped transform his life, he encourages others to pay attention to theirs. “We’re so weighed down by the business of life,” he said. “All that fills up space in your brain that should be used for dreaming. If I could say anything to people, I would say, `Don’t live by your goals. Don’t live by your appointments. Live by your dreams.’” For tickets, visit www.lonetreeartscenter. org.

An outsized influence on the game Greenlaw is goals, points leader in league By Jim Benton

jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com Kirsten Greenlaw is a little girl with a big shot. Greenlaw, a sophomore at Rock Canyon High School, plays on the ThunderRidge girls lacrosse team, which draws players from Highlands Ranch, Mountain Vista, Rock Canyon and ThunderRidge High Schools. She leads the Continental League in goals with 44, and her 58 points makes her the league’s scoring leader. Greenlaw is a standout on the field, even though sometimes she might be hard to find when she is being defensed by bigger defenders. “You would never know just by looking at her that she could be so dominant on the lacrosse field, she is so tiny and quick” said ThunderRidge coach Alanna Gilbertson. “Even though she is only a sophomore, she is definitely a leader on our team and helps control the pace of the game. “She is a lefty, which is always a plus in girls lacrosse, and she has one of the hardest shots I have seen in my 11 years of coaching. She has a unique talent for being able to get the shot off quickly and accurately.” Greenlaw, 5-foot-6, has been playing lacrosse for the past six years and really doesn’t think a lot about goals, assists or points. “It’s always a surprise when I hear the stats,” said Greenlaw. “All I know is I want to continue to get better each game and each year. I love this sport. My position is attack and that’s what I love to do is attack the net. “I don’t think about being a high scorer, I just love to fire it into the net. I love the challenge of weaving between players and being a natural lefty, it helps throw off de-

My favorite shot is a wrap, angle shot to the top corner.” Being a smaller player hasn’t been a disadvantage. “A lot of teams send their bigger defenders on me because they think they can block me right away but my quickness has always been an advantage for me,” said

‘I love the challenge of weaving between players and being a natural lefty. It helps throw off defenders.’ Kirsten Greenlaw

Greenlaw. “So I definitely get some jaws to drop when I go right past these bigger defenders.” Greenlaw scored 51 goals and had had 19 assists last season as a freshman and was an All-Continental League pick and an honorable mention All-State selection. “My goal is to again make first team Continental League plus first team All-State,” said Greenlaw, who is going to try out for the national team in May. “Of course, I couldn’t be who I am without my teammates, especially Haley Kroll, Brianna LeCompte and Millie Micho. We work well together transitioning down the field.”

ThunderRidge lost six seniors who were starters, but with 10 new players, the 2013 Grizzlies have been competitive, with a 5-5 record. “Kirsten has some pretty great teammates that have helped her to be so successful,” said Gilbertson. “Haley Kroll and Brianna LeCompte have definitely been very important factors in our team’s success over the last four years. Even though their goal stats might not be as impressive as Kirsten’s, they are both amazing players. Haley had 35 goals and 10 assists. Brianna has 21 goals and nine assists. They will both be continuing on the collegiate level, Brianna at LIU Post in New York and Haley at Mesa State.”

Mountain Vista shuts out Heritage in soccer Golden Eagles win 3-0 in hard-fought battle By Tom Munds

tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com The Heritage-Mountain Vista soccer game again proves statistics go out the window when teams take the field Based on won-loss records, Mountain Vista appeared to be heavily favored, with a 9-1 season record and 6-0 in league, while Heritage was 1-7-2 overall and 1-3-2 in league. But the game turned out to be a hardfought battle from the opening kickoff. In the end, Mountain Vista preserved its undefeated league record with a 3-0 win. Games take on added importance as both teams head down the home stretch of the regular season. Heritage was scheduled to play Highlands Ranch on April 23 and then face ThunderRidge on April 25. The final regular season game is April 30 at 7 p.m. against Legend at Littleton Stadium. At the same time, Mountain Vista was to play Castle View April 25 and to play Littleton on April 29. The team wraps up the regular season April 30 with a 4:30 p.m. game against Highlands Ranch at Shea Stadium. Mountain Vista is in position to win the Continental League title for the fourth year in a row, which earns them an automatic

We have

a solid back line that doesn’t let many attackers get behind them and we also have talented goalkeepers.” The Golden Eagles have scored 33 goals and given up two. Twelve players have scored goals so far this season and 14 players have assists. The leading scorer is freshman Mallory Pugh who has 12 goals and

one assists. Megan Massey had five goals and five assists and Maddy Smith has six goals and four assists. After the game, Heritage coach Adam Buseck praised the way his team played in this game and all season. “We fought hard the whole game as we have in all our games,” the coach said. “Today, we made a couple of mistakes early and, since they are a good team, they took advantage of those mistakes to score goals.” Buseck said his team depth is a major plus because he can keep fresh players on the field throughout the game without impacting the quality of his team’s play. The coach said his team struggled a little early, but he encourages the team to keep battling because they are not out of the playoff picture yet. “This is a good soccer team with a lot of talented players on the roster,” he said. “We have had some players sidelined with injuries but we still are very competitive. With the exception of Mountain Vista, our league is very competitive, so we could start winning games and still get one of the wildcard spots in the playoffs.” The team has spread the scoring around, with three players scoring goals and five players with assists. Alyssa Biever, a sophomore, is the scoring leader with three goals, and teammate Ellen Best, a freshman, has a goal and has taken a team-high 15 shots on goal.

Douglas County boys ‘real focused’ in baseball victory By Jim Benton

jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com At first, the comment sounded a lot like coachspeak, which are words and phrases often uttered repeatedly by coaches over and over again. However, Douglas County High School baseball coach Mark Roberts accurately described the Huskies’ 11-2 Continental League victory over crosstown rival Castle View as “a total team victory.” Everybody in the Huskies lineup contributed a hit or scored a run in the April 19 victory on the Douglas County diamond. “The boys came out real focused,” Roberts said. Douglas County collected 12 hits, including three home runs. The sixth, seventh, eighth and ninth hitters in the Huskies lineup (Tyler Quintana, Jared Montoya, Codi Guillory and Austin Pitchford) had six hits and two homers, scored five runs and drove in five runs. Starting pitcher Trent Maloney was touched for two runs in the top of the first inning but settled down and allowed only one hit in the last five innings. The senior right-hander retired the last eight batters he faced in a seveninning, completed game, five-hit performance. “He really settled down and we answered with five runs in the bottom of the first,” Roberts said. Castle View starting pitcher Trevor Smeeton got the first two outs in the

Quintana delivered a single to score one run and then Montoya, the Huskies sophomore second basemen, sent a 3-2 pitch over the right-centerfield fence for a grand slam home run. “He’s been our leadoff hitter,” explained Roberts. “I dropped him to seventh to take a little pressure off him. I moved everybody up in the lineup and put him seventh. I guess he likes hitting seventh.” Montoya got the pitch he wanted and smacked his first home run of the season. “I was looking for a fastball,” Montoya said.

“I just went with the pitch. I get more pitches to hit when hitting seventh.” Pitchford and Maloney hit solo homers for Douglas County. Maloney, Quintana and Logan Kiefer each had two hits for the Huskies. Castle View never recovered after giving up the five first-inning runs. “You get the first two outs in the inning and everything is looking good,” Sabercats coach Shawn Wyss said. “Trevor didn’t make adjustments. You walk three guys in an inning and it has a way to get to you.” Junior third baseman Kaleb Geiger had two singles and a walk to pace Castle View. He drove in both Sabercats runs in the first inning.

HIGH SCHOOL SPORTS ROUNDUP Legend baseball on a roll

Legend, last spring’s runners-up in the Class 5A state baseball tournament, won only one it its first five games this season.

By Deborah Grigsby

dgrigsby@ourcoloradonews. com Local hipsters and foodies, rejoice. Sundays on the Streets, Centennial’s yearly outdoor art market known for its eclectic taste in all things artsy, now hopes to be known for all things tasty, too. Along with its new location at Cherry Knolls Shopping Center, directly across the street from The Streets at SouthGlenn, event promoter Robin Loughran says this year’s market will include an army of food trucks. Yes, food trucks. No longer the last bastion for sandwiches at construction sites, Loughran said food trucks have morphed into trendy mobile catering options offering a smorgasbord of different cuisines. “It’s a perfect combination for us this year,” she said. “They’ve long been a hit downtown and we hope to have the largest collection of gourmet food trucks in the city at Sundays on the Streets and we’ve already got five trucks confirmed.” A summertime staple at The Streets at SouthGlenn, Loughran also said the market’s decision move to Cherry Knolls was based on the need for more space and options for vendors. “We’ve got a little more room to spread out, and while vendor tents are encouraged, they are not required,” she said.

Willkommen!

Local event promoter Robin Loughran is promising Centennial’s largest rally of trendy food trucks each month at Sunday on the Streets, the city’s annual outdoor market, which begins May 12. Food trucks, like Denver-based Solar Coffee, pictured here, have become popular among hipsters and foodies. Photo by Deborah Grigsby

“We will also have more flexibility when it comes to parking and setup.” Sundays on the Streets features the wares of local artisans, photographers and other crafty

folk. “There’s jewelry, handbags, designer accessories, baked goods and this year, we’ve added antiques,” said Loughran. The market is held monthly on the second Sunday, beginning on Mother’s Day, May 12. Market hours are 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Loughran said interested vendors, artisans, musicians and food trucks should contact her directly for an application. While space is still available, she expects to be sold out soon. “Centennial is my home, too,” she said. “And Sundays on the Streets is just one way to celebrate the people of this wonderful community and in which we live.”
