Boys save man with dementia Senior citizen was wandering streets at night in cold temps By Chris Michlewicz
c m i c h l e w i c z @ o u rc o l o r a d o news.com Two quick-thinking Parker boys are being credited with possibly saving the life of a man with dementia. The temperature was hovering around zero at 2:30 a.m. Jan. 14 when Hunter Hicken, 13, heard the sound of a suitcase being dragged on the ground. When he looked out his window, he saw a man walking down the middle of his street in the Timbers subdivision. Hunter awoke his twin brother, Mason, and they watched quietly, unsure if the man was simply taking out the trash late at night. But
they soon realized something was wrong when the man stopped and stood motionless at the end of a driveway. The two Boy Scouts’ training kicked in and Mason ran to alert his sleeping father while Hunter kept an eye on the man. “They taught us in Boy Scouts to always be aware and be prepared” and to notify an adult when seeing something out of the ordinary, Mason said. The boys’ dad, Phil, went outside and found a 79-year-old man who was not wearing a hat or gloves. They later discovered that the man suffers from dementia, a brain disorder characterized by memory loss. He was out from California visiting his son, who lives one block from the Hickens. “He had been walking around for some time and was lost in the neighborhood,” said Lisa Hicken, the boys’ mother. A Douglas County Sheriff’s Office spokesman said the man was
able to remember his name and was later reunited with his son. Because of the frigid temperatures, a deputy who responded to the scene said the story might have had a tragic ending if the boys had not intervened, Hicken said. When asked what it’s like playing a part in saving a person’s life, the Sagewood Middle School students say they feel pretty good. Luckily, Hunter was lying wide awake in bed, unable to sleep, when he heard the strange noise from outside. “It’s kind of amazing that it worked out the way it did,” he said. “It could have been different.”

Stock show legend not out to pasture Cockriel has run Parker training stable since 1955 By Chris Michlewicz
cmichlewicz@ourcoloradonews.com Even though it was 62 years ago, Martin Cockriel remembers his first foray at the National Western Stock Show like it was yesterday. At 86, his memory is still as sharp as the spurs on his boots, and at no point is that more apparent than when Cockriel recalls the day of his first stock show in 1951. “They had the stables outdoors and it was so cold, the water buckets froze in the stalls,” he says, punctuating his sentences with a signature belly laugh. “We started a fire in a 50-gallon drum in the middle of the hall to keep warm. The fire department would be there in two minutes now!” Reminiscing about the old days is made a bit easier by his comprehensive scrap-
book collection and the dozens of photos and honors that line the walls of his office in a 13-stall stable southeast of South Parker Road and Hess Road. The office is filled with familiar sounds: the exuberant whinnying of a prized horse, the soft meows of a barn cat and the jangling of straps and buckles. His trade is timeless, and it’s one that remains treasured in less populated areas of Douglas and Elbert counties. Cockriel is in his eighth decade of training show horses and has passed his knowledge to countless trainers who now operate throughout Colorado and the Rocky Mountain West. Over the years, everything except the western ridgeline has changed around the property where Cockriel built his “dream come true” red barn in 1954 on the side of Colorado 83. He shrugs off the development as “progress.” After selling the portion of the property in 1997 that houses the original stable — it was turned into Jackalope and is now Parker Country Market — Cockriel built the white stable with the red roof that stands today just up the hill. Cockriel Stables has downsized to five acres, and that suits the family
patriarch just fine. He no longer rides every day and has plans to retire in about a year. But make no mistake about his continued tradition of and passion for winning; it’s alive and well. He participated in eight shows over the summer, taking home various awards astride horses with names like High on Champagne, I’m Sir James and Catalytic. “He still gets a lot of anxiety,” says his grandson, Mickey Bacon, who works for Cockriel Stables and has won his share of horse shows. At this year’s stock show, Cockriel is showing only one horse. There were times when he would bring up to 25 horses to the event. In Cockriel’s mind, there is nothing that he has not accomplished in the industry. He has won convincingly across many classes with numerous breeds, most notably five-gaited American Saddlebreds. Longtime Parker resident Jean Bulger, who has known Cockriel and his wife, Barbara, for 30 years, says she is glad to see the stable still up and running. “And the fact that he loves what he’s doing,” she says. “He’s living the life.”
The passage of Amendment 64, legalizing recreational marijuana use — at least at the state level — may seem like a monumental shift in drug policy. But according to pot proponents as well as labor lawyers, not much will change in the workplace. “Amendment 64 clearly states that employers will be able to keep any enforcement policy that they’ve had,” said Mason Tvert, one of the co-directors of the amendment’s campaign. Tvert, now Director of Communications for the Marijuana Policy Project said that in the workplace, the pot status quo will remain. Employers that want to ban all drug use, including marijuana, would still be able to fire an employee who fails a drug test. “One thing that seems to be occurring is that some workers may not understand the scope of employers rights to continue to have drug testing policies and procedures,” Denver labor lawyer Emily Hobbs-Wright said. Hobbs-Wright said there is a Colorado statute that protects employee rights to participate in legal activities outside of the workplace, which has been cited by some medical marijuana users to protest a firing. “The problem with the argument is it goes back again to federal law, where it’s still illegal,” Hobbs-Wright said. That is bad news for anyone at a drugfree workplace that was hoping to enjoy a little weekend weed. Unlike tests for alcohol that typically show levels of intoxicaMarijuana continues on Page 6

When you wish upon a car . . . The elfin 1970 Saab sits in front of the house — unmoving, somewhat fraillooking — like an aging body worn down by time and circumstance. Patches of rust spot the beige paint; dents bend the chrome bumper; a milky film clouds the windows, shielding the torn upholstery inside. Much to his wife’s dismay, Larry Beetham towed it home almost six months ago, from a barn where it had rested for more than 20 years. “We just don’t have the space,” she told him. “We have a two-car garage and now four cars and a motorcycle.” And then, something remarkable happened. Call it luck, fate, maybe divine intervention. Larry’s not sure. All he knows is the little car given to him for free turned out to be a priceless gift — a road trip back to his childhood and his dad, who died six years ago. Along the way, he rediscovered the depth of a father’s commitment to his family. “It was a connection, not a destiny,” Larry says of the car. “But by some design it came to me.” The story begins in the mid-1960s when James Beetham and his two sons — Larry was about 6 then — saw their first Saabs at the Denver car show. It was, almost, love at first sight. By the end of 1966, James owned a Saab franchise in Greeley. “I spent my childhood riding around in these little Saabs,” Larry, now 53, remembers. Developed by airplane engineers, the Swedish cars became known for aerodynamic shapes and innovative differences — ignitions on the floor, electric window locks in the middle console — and their devoted fans. To this day, Saab owners are unwavering in loyalty and passion. At 19, Larry bought his first, a 1973 bright yellow Saab, from his father. He
his green Saab and pulled into his brother’s car wash in Golden to spray out the pine needles in the fender and the gray dust and spiderwebs blanketing the engine. Then he parked it outside his Littleton home. Ann suggested Larry name the car Jude, the patron saint of hopeless causes, which also happened to be his dad’s favorite saint. “That’s it, Dad!” son Kyle, 16, agreed enthusiastically. “We’re gonna name it Jude!” And here, the story takes its twist. The previous owner never retitled the car when he bought it in 1988 and the address of the original owner was a J.F. and A. Garcia of Greeley. “What are the odds your dad sold him the car?” a Saab club member asked Larry. One August weekend, when Larry was helping his mother around her Greeley home, down in the basement he rummaged through his dad’s old, steel work desk — still packed with files. As he flipped through a stack of envelope-sized slips, he noticed a sales transaction that read “June 13, 1970, Saab, Garcia.” He opened a drawer and a white card “jumped out” and fell on the floor. “It wanted me to find it,” Larry recalls. It was a Saab owner identification card, which contained the serial number of a demo car received by Larry’s dad on Jan. 22, 1970. The serial number matched the Saab number on the title of the car parked outside Larry’s home. Larry started laughing: “I’ve got a car that my dad actually sold and, not just that he sold, but that he had.” That day, poignant memories rose from the papers, mingling amid the excitement of discovery, to remind Larry about the challenges his dad faced trying to support a family of eight children while running a business. “He would come home when I was a kid and he didn’t know how he was going to
bought his second, a red 1977 Saab, in 1982. In 1988, he married Ann, the daughter of a Midwest auto mechanic who understood and appreciated cars and could recite models of just about any car that passed. “That’s one of the things that drew me to Ann,” Larry says. “I thought, ‘OK, she might put up with some of my stuff.’” Ann was driving an Acura. With no space or money for car registrations and licenses, they sold the Saabs and bought a Jeep. Two sons came. A series of cars, including a van, came and went from the driveway. A Saab, a 1998 green 9000, didn’t re-enter Larry’s life again until 2004. By 2008, the non-Saabs had been replaced by two more Saabs, one black, the other a flirty red convertible. The year Larry bought the green Saab he also joined the Rocky Mountain Saab Club. Last summer, one member, moving from Evergreen for health reasons, wanted homes for three old Saabs stored in his barn. Two other members made their choices first; Larry took the one left, a Savannah beige 96 that had been towed into the barn in 1988 as a parts car. Larry inspected it closely. A little rust. Solid floorboards under the soiled carpet. Door panels in good condition. Weatherstrip around the doors in good condition. Headliner in excellent condition. Although the engine didn’t run, Larry declared it “a solid car,” trailered it behind
Parker captain vies for Lone Tree post New top cop likely will be named by mid-February By Jane Reuter
jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com Six men are candidates for Lone Tree’s new police chief, five of them from the Denver metro area.
The six candidates include Parker Police Capt. Ronald Combs, Arvada Deputy Police Chief Gary Creager, Greenwood Village Police Cmdr. Joseph Harvey, Wheat Ridge Police Division Chief James Lorentz, Lakewood Police Cmdr. Jeffrey Streeter and Beverly, Mass., Police Chief Mark Ray. City officials will conduct interviews the week of Jan. 28, and the new chief likely will be named by mid-February. A total of 90 people applied for
the position. Former Lone Tree Police Chief Steve Hasler was fired without cause in late August. Though Hasler believes the dismissal was a form of retaliation from City Manager Jack Hidahl, a reason never was given for his dismissal. The new chief will lead a force of 47 officers in one of the fastest-growing, most affluent communities in Colorado. Starting pay for the position ranges from about $104,000 to $135,500.
make it work.” Larry’s voice thickens and falters as he remembers. “He would pray to St. Jude. St. Jude would look over him and get him through.” And “sometimes,” Larry says, a smile brightening his face, “he would come in with a roll of bills and say, ‘Let’s take a test drive and go to Johnson’s Corner for dinner.’” His father, who died at 90, was 60 years old when he gave up the Saab franchise. “It was hard when he sold the dealership,” Larry says. The discussion about the coincidence of the Saab, St. Jude and Larry’s dad continues. “One of my sisters said ‘Dad’s guiding that from heaven,’” Larry says. “I don’t think certain things happen by chance,” Ann says. “I think there’s more a spiritual connection with certain things.” Larry’s still not sure. But one thing is certain. “If it was designed that way,” Ann says, “it’s Larry’s obligation to bring it back to its original condition.” He’s working on it. Parts are on the way. He will soon move the car from the cold curb into the warmth of the garage where he can tinker when time allows. With help from a friend, he started the engine last summer. His son turned the key. Neighbors watched. Larry documented the event on video. “It has life,” he said happily as the car blew a cloud of accumulated exhaust. “It’s not a hopeless cause.” And that, for the time being, is the end of the story. Luck. Fate. Divine intervention? You decide. Ann Macari Healey’s column about people, places and issues of everyday life appears every other week.

Housing market looking good Economist says sales, prices on their way up By Jennifer Smith
jsmith@ourcoloradonews. com Patricia Silverstein, president of Jefferson Countybased Development Research Partners, compares the country’s economic recovery to a long traverse up a big mountain — slow, steady, treacherous and frustrating. “There are times when you’re going straight across and it feels like you’re get-
ting absolutely nowhere,” she said. Speaking Jan. 15 to the South Metro Denver Realtor Association, Silverstein said the news is good for the metro-area housing market. A normal year would see an average of 17 homes sold for every 1,000 people in the state; Silverstein predicts the number will be 16.6 in 2013. There was a 17.5 percent increase in sales in 2012 over the year before, and prices are well above the national median — $257,000 here, compared with $178,000 nationally. “Our expensive housing market might a little

Foreclosure filings are decreasing in the sevencounty Denver metro area, down to 15,516 last year from a peak of 26,520 in 2007. Silverstein predicts there will be 14,895 this year.

“The idea of the white picket fence may not be as appealing as it once was,” she said. The demand for housing declined during the Great Recession as families consolidated — kids moving back home or
empty nesters moving in with elderly parents, for example. “But people are now at a point where they want their own place to live,” said Silverstein, creating a great opportunity for sellers.

Moldovan orphans get shoes, hugs Church members travel overseas on eye-opening trip By Chris Michlewicz
cmichlewicz@ourcoloradonews.com The trip of a lifetime is often a fanciful excursion to a tropical destination. For a group of Parkerites, it was a mission to Moldova. The economically depressed nation in Eastern Europe, a former part of the Soviet Union, is not ideal for those looking for a relaxing vacation. But then, that wasn’t what a group from Southeast Christian Church had in mind anyway. The nine-day visit to Moldova was life-changing on many levels. Five teens and six adults from the Parker church got a stark reality check when they delivered shoes, boots and socks to orphans. It was part of a five-team “Kids n’ Boots” mission organized by Texas-based Children’s Emergency Relief International, or CERI, which first got philanthropically involved in Moldova when Russian officials decided to no longer pay for coal to heat the republic’s many orphanages. Each year, in an attempt to stimulate the local economy, CERI purchases more than $120,000 worth of shoes, boots and socks from a Moldovan manufacturer.
Gabby Moseley, left, and Abby Loy pose for a photo before fitting an orphan toddler with new boots and socks. The two were part of a group from Southeast Christian Church that traveled to Moldova in December to provide boots and socks to the kids. Courtesy photo Church groups are then charged with loading the trucks and handing them out to the estimated 12,000 children living in orphanages. The work is not without its challenges, especially in the middle of winter, when roads leading to rural villages become impassable because of snow. Rick Lewis, a member at South-
east Christian and leader of the 2012 Moldova trip, said the conditions at some of the orphanages were deplorable. It wasn’t uncommon to encounter poor plumbing, unreliable electrical systems and failing structures. The most jarring element, however, was the human one. “They’re walking around with
cold feet in 10-degree weather,” Lewis said. “The kids didn’t have basic shoes and socks and some get frostbite on their feet and hands.” For the teens on the mission who had never been abroad or experienced another culture, the sights were a wake-up call. Lewis said the five seventh-graders who
made the trip bonded with the orphans, whom they realized are not that different from them. “When you go on a trip like that, there’s a change involved in how you view the world and what you value,” he said. Thousands of orphans are institutionalized from age 5 to 16, often because their parents cannot afford to feed and clothe them. Therefore, the other orphans “become their family,” Lewis said. The kids become attached to the visitors and it’s difficult for them to leave. Lewis is among those who wish they could stay longer and develop a longer-term relationship with the abandoned children. “You’re just there for a moment in time and you hope that something you do or say will have a lasting impact on them,” he said. “Or maybe just a hug. These kids hold onto you, they’re so longing for a sense of belonging and acceptance.” Having been on medical missions to Moldova, the headmaster of Southeast Christian’s private school, Vern Walters, M.D., connected the church with CERI. The partnership is likely to continue and the church plans to gather more congregants to visit the impoverished country. Walters’ ultimate goal is to implement a student leadership service program and integrate information about the volunteer work and cultural experiences into the school’s curriculum.
Schwab announces campus in Lone Tree Company chooses RidgeGate after 18-month negotiation By Jane Reuter
jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com The Charles Schwab Corp. will start construction of its $230 million Lone Tree campus in February, with its 2,100 Denver-area employees reporting to work there in late 2014, company officials said. Schwab is consolidating its leased offices in downtown Denver, Denver’s Cherry Creek area and Centennial onto a 57-acre site at the southwest corner of Lincoln Avenue and Park Meadows Drive. The prop-
erty is part of the rapidly growing RidgeGate development. Negotiations with Schwab were ongoing for 18 months, with RidgeGate wooing the Fortune 500 company, along with several other metro-area developers. “It certainly ranks right up there with Sky Ridge Medical Center, which really launched RidgeGate,” said Keith Simon, Director of Development for Coventry, RidgeGate’s developer. “It was a great announcement to be made, and certainly a really great validation of RidgeGate as a location for corporate America.” Lone Tree’s location was a deciding factor for Schwab. “It’s relatively close to our existing (Centennial) facilities,” company spokes-

woman Sarah Bulgatz said. “The amenities looked great to us. Just all around it seemed like it would be the right choice.” In exchange for the creation of 480 new jobs in the next five years, Schwab will receive tax credits from Colorado’s Job Growth Incentive Tax Credit. “The new campus gives us the flexibility to add jobs as we need them,” company spokeswoman Sarah Bulgatz said. “Obviously, growth is going to be very dependent on the economic and business environment.” The initial influx of Schwab workers likely will be from 9-to-5 only, however. Because the current employees already work for the company and are established in the Denver area, Bulgatz doesn’t expect

Lone Tree’s Planning Commission gave the project a preliminary review
during its Jan. 22 meeting, but the first phase of construction still must undergo review by both the commission and city council. The Rampart Range Metro District, which serves RidgeGate, already is moving dirt on Schwab’s future site. That includes construction of a new street that will feed into Lincoln at Heritage Hills Circle, creating a four-way intersection. The new street, Bellwether Lane, will extend south to RidgeGate Parkway, tracing the west side of Schwab’s campus. Bellwether likely will open to traffic in September.

Alan Simpson targets debt in local stop Former senator sees entitlements, defense spending as unsustainable By Deborah Grigsby
dgrigsby@ourcoloradonews.com Pushing a plan to reduce the nation’s debt, former U.S. Sen. Alan Simpson of Wyoming made an exclusive stop in Centennial, mobilizing business and grassroots support for his Fix the Debt campaign. Simpson spoke at the invitation of John Brackney, South Metro Denver Chamber of Commerce president and co-chair of Fix the Debt’s Colorado chapter. More than 150 people turned out for a Jan. 21 reception at the chamber to hear the 81-year-old, 6-foot-7 curmudgeon discuss what his nonpartisan project can do to improve the country’s fiscal health. “It’s not an issue of how we got here, it’s what do we do about it now,” said Simpson, a Republican. “You sent guys like me to Washington to bring home the bacon, and if we didn’t, we didn’t get re-elected ... and we all made promises we couldn’t keep, and that’s pretty much where we are today.” Simpson, along with former Clinton Chief of Staff Erskine Bowles, chaired the National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform, commissioned by President Obama in 2010. The Simpson-Bowles plan — which garnered a number of highprofile supporters but didn’t gain congressional approval — pledged to reduce the federal deficit by $4 trillion, stabilize public debt by 2014, reduce debt 60 percent by

Alan Simpson of Wyoming offers a warning to those who hesitate to engage their elected representatives, suggesting the nation’s continued “addiction to debt” and polarized positions on entitlement spending put the nation’s future at risk. Simpson spoke Jan. 21 at the South Metro Denver Chamber of Commerce, urging individuals and businesses to actively engage the government in fiscal responsibility.Photo by Deborah Grigsby 2023 and eventually eliminate it by 2035. Today, the national debt exceeds $16 trillion. Speaking without reserve, a salty Simpson insisted that when it comes to Social Security entitlements and their effect on the budget, the numbers speak for themselves, saying the program has a $900 billion negative cash flow. “When I was a freshman at the (Univer-
sity of Wyoming), had hair, weighed 260 pounds and thought beer was food, there were 15 people paying into Social Security and one person taking out,” he said. “Today there are three people paying in and one person taking out; in three years, there will be two people paying in and one person taking out.” Simpson added that on any given day, more than 10,000 Americans are turning
65 and the nation’s life expectancy in three years will close to 80, rendering the entire system, as it stands, unsustainable. By 2031, Social Security checks will be 25 percent less, and in two and a half years, Social Security disability insurance will be gone due to overuse. Defense spending was also on Simpson’s list of targets. “Our defense budget is $740 billion,” he said. “The defense budget of the top 17 countries on earth, including Russia and China, combined is only $540 billion.” Department of Defense school systems, Medicare, hospitals, the home mortgage deduction, taxes and tort reform — Simpson left no stone unturned. Businessman Jim Lambatos, who owns Ivy, an upscale restaurant in Centennial, said Simpson’s ideas are refreshing. “I really got a lot of insight into why most Americans don’t understand the situation this country is in, and it’s sad,” said Lambatos. “From today’s event I’m really taking away a philosophy of working smarter, more efficiently and focusing on sustainability.” “We have many of the same challenges in local and state politics as there are at the federal level,” said Phil Cernanec, Littleton city councilmember. Simpson closed with a warning. “Hang on, because when March comes, we’re just gonna kick the can down the road,” he said of the upcoming vote by Congress to raise the debt ceiling. “And if any 30-year-old can’t figure out what’s gonna happen to them when they turn 65, they don’t need any help from me. They are gonna get creamed.”
Victim’s friends fear for their safety Carrying handgun Suspect already had restraining order when ex-girlfriend was shot By Chris Michlewicz
cmichlewicz@ourcoloradonews. com The friends of a woman who was allegedly shot by an ex-boyfriend as she drove to work have asked a judge to help protect them. The victim, who was not identified by authorities, had an active restraining order against Christopher Lyle Fields, 27, when he allegedly shot her Jan. 9 near Interstate 25 and County Line Road. The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office said Fields stood in front of the victim’s vehicle and fired one shot through the windshield, striking her. She is expected to make a full recovery. Fields’ pre-trial bond from an earlier stalking case in which the shoot-
ing victim was targeted was revoked because of the attempted homicide charge. But prosecutors say the victim’s friends are concerned for their own safety because of Fields’ recent violent behavior. During a motions hearing Jan. 22, Douglas County District Court Judge Paul King granted their request to block the defendant’s access to their addresses. Police say Fields was wearing an ankle monitor when he shot his exgirlfriend, then removed it before fleeing on a motorcycle. He was caught six hours after the shooting in Raton, N.M., where he is awaiting extradition. The protective order will remove the victim’s friends’ personal information, but Fields’ attorney, Christopher Leroi, pointed out that his client already received court documents from the previous stalking case that list the victim’s friends as witnesses. The documents include their addresses. “If the horse is out of the barn, it’s
hard to get it back into the barn,” King said. Fields was originally scheduled to appear at the Jan. 22 motions hearing for the stalking case. He was expected to be extradited to Colorado by Jan. 25, and Leroi said he assumes his client will be in police custody. King rescheduled the motions hearing to 8:15 a.m. Feb. 12 to determine whether there will be a need to delay his stalking trial. Fields’ right to a speedy trial was vacated because of his “voluntary” absence from the hearing stemming from his departure from Colorado, which violated his pretrial release conditions. The victim also is still recuperating and might need more time before the trial. Before the Jan. 22 hearing adjourned, King informed Leroi and the prosecutors that Fields’ mother was charged with a misdemeanor after leaving a message on King’s voicemail. It is unclear what charge was filed against her.
Marijuana: Businesses advised to review drug policy Marijuana continues from Page 1
tion, marijuana tests usually indicate just that the drug has been used some time in the past. A standard employee drug urine test can be positive weeks after the last joint. Heavy users have reported positive tests even months after their last usage. “But quite frankly, I think employers will get away from firing and rehiring employees over off-the-job marijuana use,” Tvert said. He added that as cultural perception of marijuana changes he expects business policies to become more lenient.
Denver Metro publication Westword, which features a medicinal marijuana critic on staff, has announced that it has not, and will not conduct drug tests. So far, Westword is in the minority. A 2011 survey by the Society for Human Resource Management found 57 percent of U.S. employers conduct drug tests as a part of the hiring process. Any business that complies with the federal Drug Free Workplace Act of 1988 has little option over their marijuana stance. It remains a criminalized substance at the federal level, and any business or organization that receives
a federal grant or contract must comply with the act. Likewise, any business with major safety requirements for its employees or the public will likely continue to follow federal regulations, since any accident could trigger steep OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) penalties. Hobbs-Wright suggests businesses review their drug policy, and make sure their employees know what the rules and penalties will be regarding marijuana. “Some employers might want to tighten up the definition of illegal drugs in their policy, to explicitly mention marijuana,” Hobbs-Wright said.

not for everyone Class explores psychology of concealed weapons By Deborah Grigsby
dgrigsby@ourcolorado news.com Talk of federal gun control has emptied sporting goods stores of both ammunition and weapons, and caused many who may have never fired a weapon in their lives to consider purchasing a handgun. But what one local mental health professional wants people to know is that choosing not to own a weapon is OK, too. According to Dr. Charles Allen, a Centennial psychologist who is also an NRA basic firearms instructor and range safety officer, it’s important for individuals to understand the reasoning behind their desire to own a gun, long before the purchase. “How do you feel when you hold a weapon?” asked Allen. “How do you think you’d feel carrying a concealed weapon into the grocery store?” These are just some of the tough questions he poses to students in his Psychology of Carrying a Gun course, taught at the Centennial Gun Club in Cen-

tennial. “Students who aren’t comfortable with pulling the trigger, as well as accepting the responsibility with what goes along with that decision, shouldn’t own a gun at all,” said Allen. “And there’s absolutely no shame in choosing not to own or carry. I think that’s important to point out.” Allen, a former Marine who worked for more than two decades with veterans suffering from PTSD, said all the hype around gun control has put some in the difficult position of choosing between fear and what is comfortable. In some cases, the elderly or disabled feel a gun is an equalizer. Allen said his students mostly range between 30 and 60 years of age, with the oldest being 90. “People have different reasons for owning a weapon, and that’s what we explore in the class.” The highest volume of students, according to Allen, comes from the medical field. “Doctors, cosmetic surgeons, nurses and other medical professionals are among the majority of those I see applying for a concealed weapons permit,” he said. “Basically because of their ability to access drugs.” Allen also teaches classes for people recovering from trauma and gun-related violence. “Gun violence has a farreaching impact,” he said. “School shootings a thousand miles away have parents here in Colorado trying to explain what happened.” For more information on classes and training, call Allen at 303-898-7001.

They chose to come here. It’s up to them whether they can stay.” The school’s only requirements are that students be at least 16, and have attempted at least one year at a traditional high school. Sommer Hinkley, another of the 29 graduates, fit that description. She started high school at Rock Canyon, but felt out of step there. “Abercrombie and Fitch with bottled blond hair is not my style,” she said. “Classmates harassing me made it hard for me to get out of bed in the morning.” She enrolled at Eagle
Academy in 2010, and felt a sense of connection with her new classmates she hadn’t previously known. “We are not losers,” she said during her commencement address. “We are not burnouts. Most of us have jobs during the day. Eagle kids are some of the hardest-working people you will ever meet.” Hinkley’s sentiments were re-echoed throughout the graduation ceremony. Students not only gave one another kudos, but repeatedly credited the staff for helping them make it to the graduation stage. The evening was enough to bring Seligman, in his ninth year as principal, near tears. “I taught for a decade at various high schools and middle schools, but we get so much more face-to-face and hands-on interaction with kids (here),” he said.
ler’s plans. The missing pieces of the story were adeptly filled in by Leo Barron, a fellow historian from Arizona who served in Iraq and had been doing his own research on
the Battle for Bastogne. The co-authors traveled to the site in Belgium and spoke to the descendentgs of those who lived in the area at the time of the Battle of the Bulge, of which the Battle for Bastogne was a turning point. The complementary partnership resulted in a “remarkable story” with heroics that previously had not been documented. Cygan, a retired Army and National Guard Reserve serviceman, said many veterans told him they had never shared their story, not even with their wives. “There are still huge stories coming out of World War II, things that people never got full information about because so much was going on,” he said. “It’s hard to realize the impact.” After Cygan retained an agent, the 320page book, “No Silent Night: The Christmas Battle for Bastogne,” was quickly snapped up by the New American Library, a subsidiary imprint of Penguin Publishing. The authors have been encouraged by the book’s popularity since being released in November: Nearly 5,000 physical copies had been sold as of Jan. 18. Cygan is scheduled to appear during a book signing and discussion at 7:30 p.m. Feb. 7 at the Tattered Cover Book Store in Highlands Ranch. The book is also available at Amazon.com, Barnes & Noble and other retailers, and can be purchased as an e-book.

OPINIONS / YOURS AND OURS
Helping the nation starts at home Former U.S. Sen. Alan Simpson pulls no punches. He is crusty, direct, sometimes profane and he isn’t all that concerned with what people think of him. But he certainly cares about the future of this country. The outspoken Republican from Wyoming was in the Denver area on Jan. 21 to share his views on the topic he has grown synonymous with in recent years, the national debt. He has some complex, controversial and detailed ideas on reducing that $16 trillion mountain. But when Simpson took some time to speak with us before addressing an audience at the South Metro Denver Chamber of Commerce, what stood out most was his call to action for everyday people. “If you love your country, get involved,” he told us. We strongly endorse that message. And Simpson sets a great example as someone who has spent many of his 81 years being
OUR VIEW involved. He served briefly in the Army in the 1950s, was elected to the Wyoming House of Representatives in the 1960s, and served in the U.S. Senate from 1979-1997. In 2010, as the co-chair of a commission tasked with tackling the nation’s fiscal challenges, Simpson and Erskine Bowles, chief of staff for President Clinton, authored a plan that gained some popular support but not approval of Congress or the president. Simpson did not give up and is still taking on the debt, now as a co-founder, along with Bowles, of the nonpartisan Campaign to Fix the Debt.
Ask yourself: What’s the good word? One of our very astute readers from the community reached out last week to thank me for all of the columns over the past few years. Jim shared with me that although he began reading my column with skepticism and doubt, eventually the consistency in each column finally won him over. The consistency he mentioned was the choice of words that I use. Jim used several examples of specific words from prior articles that he said helped him finally make some changes in his own life. Words like positive, joy, passion, hope, encouragement, success, love, kindness, enthusiasm, achievement and commitment were included among the many in the “word bank” he is now keeping for himself. You see, Jim had been raised in a less than positive home and environment. He felt like he had surrounded himself with friends and acquaintances that also exuded a less than energetic and enthusiastic attitude. He even said that his current family situation had become one in which no one was happy, positive or motivated. Jim made a choice a several months ago to start collecting the words from this column and include them in his vocabulary with everyone he came in contact with. He shared that although he started slowly using just one or two words a day, before he knew it every sentence he used included some form of positive, uplifting, encouraging, inspiring and motivating words. And here is the part of the email that really got me: “It was funny Mr. Norton, the more I used those words, the better I felt about myself and the more I smiled. I almost couldn’t help myself but smile and everyone around me started smiling too.” Now I certainly didn’t invent those words, and I am not the master motivator as some such authors and experts are, but I am and will continue to be a messenger of a positive message. We should all have a “Jim” in our lives
and if we don’t, maybe we can also become a little like Jim and adopt that positive outlook, build our own word bank of the words that resonate with us, and then share our powerful and positive new vocabulary with everyone we meet or greet as a part of our everyday conversations. Do you think you can add those words, say them out loud and not smile or look happy? I have to believe that the answer is no. I am absolutely convinced that we can all make such a huge difference in our community if we consciously made word choices that others found empowering and motivating. When we fill our heads and hearts with positive thoughts and emotions, over time we can eliminate any of the negativity that has gripped and/or run our lives in the past. It’s a new year; let’s make it one of sharing winning words and see how our lives and the lives of others just may change. What does your word bank look like? What are your `go-to’ words? What would happen if they were all positive instead of negative? I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com and when you do, I promise that you and everyone around you will have a better than good week.

South Metro Chamber President John Brackney, it should be noted, is a member of the steering committee for the campaign’s Colorado chapter. Brackney and the chamber, like Simpson, should be applauded for working to bring attention to the debt. So what can you do to get involved? Go to town halls. Ask questions. Write letters to the editor. Challenge your government officials when appropriate. Praise them when appropriate. These are basic, but effective, ways to make a difference as a citizen — whether your mission is debt reduction or saving a playground from being turned into a parking lot. And for young people thinking of going into politics, Simpson suggests they focus on the work itself and enjoy it, rather than worrying about climbing the political ranks. Don’t be afraid to start small, be it the local school board or the city council.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR What would Wyatt do?
If we are to believe the NRA, the solution to mass killings such as the one at Sandy Hook Elementary School is still more guns, maybe even in the hands of classroom teachers — perhaps a return to the days of the Old West where we take prevention and retribution into our own hands. Is there a more iconic Old West town than Tombstone, Ariz., or a more iconic Old West figure than Wyatt Earp? On April 19, 1881, Town Marshall Earp enacted Ordinance Number 9 in Tombstone, which required everyone arriving in town to leave their guns with him and not get them back until they were leaving town. Time magazine reports in its Jan. 14 issue that we Americans own 88.8 guns per 100 people (by far the highest in the world) and have a gun homicide rate of 3.2 per 100,000. Canada with tighter gun controls has comparative figures of 31.3 and 0.1. Australia’s numbers are 15.0 and 0.1. Japan 0.6 and 0.0. So our gun homicide rate is about 32 times that of other countries that are “like us.” Even Wyatt Earp could figure it out. When will the rest of us learn? Gary Wyngarden Sedalia
Heroic smoke alarms need your help
Smoke alarms are one of the unsung heroes in our homes, vigilantly keeping watch for smoke and alerting us to its presence so we can escape outside, call 911 and let our firefighters extinguish the fire. But these heroes aren’t perfect. They need a new battery at least once each year; they “chirp” at us when the battery is running low. Smoke alarms hardwired into our electrical systems also need fresh batteries so that they’ll protect our

QUESTION OF THE WEEK
What are your top movie picks of 2012? Nominees for the 2013 Academy Awards were released Jan. 10, with a few surprises. One that wasn’t a surprise: “Lincoln” leads the list with a total of 12 nominations. The 85th annual Academy Awards will take place Feb. 24.
We asked a sampling of movie fans at the AMC Highlands Ranch 24 movie theater complex for their top picks of 2012. Their choices ranged from animated happy romps to serious award nominees based on historical events.
“‘Argo.’ It had an interesting story line and was based on a true story. I thought it was well directed. And it had a happy ending.” Jane Lockheart, Sedalia
“‘Lincoln.’ I loved the actor, Daniel Day Lewis, and the story. I just thought it was incredibly well done, and very intense.” Gary Lockheart, Sedalia
“‘Ice Age: Continental Drift.’ It was just kind of like it brought the kid spirit back out in me. Most sequels aren’t as good as the first one, but I thought that one was better than the original.” Kaira Brothers, Highlands Ranch
“‘Hunger Games.’ I liked the action. I liked how it kept you on the edge of your seat, and it leaves you wanting to see the next one.” Chelsea Rich, Highlands Ranch
Be prepared to challenge and to be challenged. Above all, be prepared to compromise because politics is like a good marriage in this regard: If one side insists on getting his or her way 100 percent of the time, not much constructive is going to happen. But through give and take, things can progress, as Simpson knows, having been married nearly 60 years. “If you think compromise is a dirty word, don’t get into politics,” Simpson says. He knows compromise, having taken his share of heat from both the left and his own party. His politics could be viewed as too liberal for the GOP and too conservative for Democrats, and that’s just fine with him. Whether you like his politics or not, like what he says or not, Simpson has a passion for service. And for sharing that, we owe him a great debt.

families during power outages. They like to be vacuumed occasionally to clean dust, cobwebs and insect bodies from the chamber that detects the presence of smoke. They also get old and expire. When they “die,” they might chirp or they might go into alarm mode. Most smoke alarms have a 10-year life, although residents should check with the manufacturer or instruction booklet to discover the exact lifespan of each alarm unit. If your smoke alarms are wired together, which means they all activate when only one detects smoke, then you’ll need to replace all of them when only one dies. If the smoke alarms are independent of each other, you only need to replace the one that dies. Consider replacing the old unit with a new one containing a 10-year battery: no need to replace the battery each year. Consider buying dual sensor alarms that react quickly to smoldering fires and flaming fires. The crème de la crème of alarms integrates carbon monoxide detection into the unit. Smoke alarms also are made for residents with hearing and vision impairments. Regardless of the technology you choose, buying a new smoke alarm is a small investment when it comes to protecting your loved ones. In most cases when the smoke alarm activates, you won’t know if it’s a “real” emergency or a maintenance issue. Act on the side of caution: Go outside, call 911 from your meeting place and let our firefighters handle the problem. If your alarms are 10 years old (or older), today is a great day to replace them.

Our financial future and what lies ahead The 113th Congress was sworn in with a tough road ahead of us and a great amount of work to be done getting the economy back on track. The numbers still paint a very disturbing picture for our children and grandchildren’s future. The debt hit $16 trillion in September 2012 — which is more than the entire U.S. economy produced in goods and services last year. Adding to our financial woes, President Obama’s first term was marked by four years of trilliondollar-plus deficits. The Senate’s bill to avoid the manufactured “fiscal cliff” — a combination of tax increases and spending cuts — was a huge disappointment that did nothing to address deficit reduction, and I ultimately could not support it. Spending cuts were kicked down the road, and the Senate’s bill actually gave government coffers more money. Additionally, the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office estimates that the Senate bill will add to our national deficit over the next 10 years. Our nation deserves better ideas and bigger thinking than that. The president campaigned on taxing millionaires and billionaires. With the passage of the fiscal cliff bill, he got his wish and more. Now every effort must be made to prevent a debt depression. As we gear up for another battle over the debt ceiling, I will continue to insist on spending cuts and entitlement reforms. If the president believes that more tax increases on American households and businesses are the way we are going to solve this deficit and
debt crisis, he is absolutely wrong. I expect President Obama to come together and work with Congress to find serious and meaningful reforms to address our spending and encourage pro-growth tax reform. The debt ceiling debate will be another chance for Washington to break free from a long line of big spending and antigrowth policies. It is also high time that both chambers of Congress agree on a budget. The House has passed budget resolutions for the past two years, but the Senate has failed to do its part — having not passed a budget in nearly four years. Without a budget framework there is no end in sight to the tax-and-spend-as-you-go policies of the Obama administration. Finding common ground on a budget that cuts spending and implements much needed entitlement reform won’t be easy, but it is time that Washington stops playing political games and make the difficult decisions that we were elected to make for the American people. For example, with 10,000 baby boomers retiring every day, it is no secret that our health-care costs will
only continue to skyrocket. Medicare spending is projected to grow over 7 percent per year for the next decade, and the fund will be exhausted by 2024. The House-passed budget proposed a plan for tackling this that allows those 55 and older to keep their traditional Medicare benefits while simultaneously preserving Medicare for our children and grandchildren — those under 55. This is the kind of forward thinking that we need more of in Washington. There are also spending cuts Congress must consider that can help rebuild the trust of the American people. I regularly hear from constituents who are frustrated by the inefficiencies and waste in the federal government. The Government Accountability Office releases an annual report that identifies duplicative programs, like the more than 100 programs dealing with surface transportation issues and the 82 federal programs that monitor teacher quality. To be fair, I recognize that consolidating these programs is not enough to solve our debt crisis, but it should be addressed. It is flat-out wrong for government to ask taxpayers for more money when government isn’t doing the best possible job it can with the tax dollars it has already been given. As Congress takes on the colossal task of reducing our debt and deficit, let’s not leave any stone — big or small — unturned.

Sometimes it’s harmless and sometimes the cleanup costs hundreds or thousands of dollars. Boys will be boys? I just think that dumb boys will be dumb boys.

Exiling pranksters … now, that’s funny Have you heard about Prank Island? I think it’s great. We now have someplace to send everyone who thinks that pranks are cool, where they can be pranked by prankers who think that pranks are cool. Ashton Kutcher is the Big Chief. Kutcher created a piece of crap called “Punk’d.” “Punk’d” was a hidden camera, practical joke reality show. I kept hoping I’d hear that someone had knocked Kutcher’s teeth down his throat. No one did. The friends he victimized just laughed it all off. They should get rooms on the island too. The island has rooms for high school boys who instigate senior pranks. There are even rooms reserved for anyone who gives surprise parties. Author David Mamet said that surprise parties were “an act of aggression.” Someone gave me one once. I walked out and burned the friendship. Every April the island has a wait list for the schmoes who perpetrate April Fools’ gags. There’s a sucker born every minute, and they all can get suckered each and every day on Punk Island. The place is full of hidden cameras and actors and actresses who pretend to be something they are not. In the morning, cafeteria workers unscrew the tops on the salt and pepper shakers. What a riot when someone literally ruins their meal with all of that salt and pepper! Some surprises are fine, some are great, and wonderful, even generous. We hear about good surprises all the time, like the cop who placed a $100
OF THE ROCKIES
We’re seeing a lot of school closures amid scares, right after Sandy Hook. Bomb threats, kids bringing guns to school. When I was in high school the misbehavers played mailbox baseball. Now mischief is much more serious, isn’t it? An extreme form of pranking is called “gaslighting.” It’s kind of crazy, literally. “Gaslighting is a form of psychological abuse in which false information is presented with the intent of making a victim doubt his or her own memory, perception, or sanity,” a Wikipedia entry says. “Instances may range simply from the denial by an abuser that previous incidents ever occurred, up to the staging of bizarre events by the abuser with the intention of disorienting the victim.” “The term comes from the play ‘Gas Light’ and its film adaptations.” The most notable version, “Gaslight,” starred Ingrid Bergman. A friend told me about a classmate at an art school who used to sneak into his professor’s office every night and move everything about an inch to the left or to the right. He thought it was conceptual art. One night, the prankster walked in on his professor playing “hide and seek” with a coed. The student was expelled. Now he’s one of Kutcher’s cabinet members.

Douglas GOP hosts school board Elected officials share views on education reform By Jane Reuter
jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com Several Douglas County School Board members shared their views on education reform, the dissolution of its relationship with the teachers’ union and other headline-making issues during a Jan. 16 Douglas County Republicans public forum. Their comments met with rousing applause from their politically friendly audience. All six current board members are Republicans. Though Colorado school boards are designed to be nonpartisan, the school board’s political affiliation and support are not hidden. The Douglas County Republicans endorsed the six current members — as well as recently resigned seventh member Doug Gerken — in the 2009 and 2011
elections. The board’s fast-paced reform efforts have triggered mixed reactions, but board members say they have support from across party lines. Franceen Thompson, a member of the nonprofit, pro-school-choice group Great Choice Douglas County, kicked off the forum with a brief address. The grassroots Strong Schools Coalition, which bills itself as a nonpartisan source of school district information, is distributing misleading information to the public, she said. “We really need to get our message out,” Thompson said, suggesting yet another group, the nonpartisan Douglas County Parent Alliance, as “a great source if you just want to get the facts.” School board member Kevin Larsen, who took the floor first, said the group’s united vision and direction works to its benefit as it tries to implement a “worldclass education.” But parents, he said, “are the ultimate decision-makers.” “It’s been a year of change,” he said, briefly describing the introduction of a market-based-pay teacher compensation system, new measurements of teacher per-
formance and the 2012 expiration of the long-held collective bargaining agreement with the teachers’ union. All those changes have given rise to questions, concerns and fears, he said. “When those kinds of things change in a system, it’s important to get a pulse,” said Larsen, who’s been talking with staff at dozens of schools to hear their concerns. “When you open up that door and have that dialogue, a lot of the fear is alleviated.” Board member Craig Richardson said the board also is allowing principals to determine the best use of their school’s district-allocated funds — either spending it each year or carrying it over from one year to the next. “We want fewer decisions to be made at the Wilcox (administration) building and more at schools,” he said, adding the district also wants to get away from “the boom-and-bust funding that typified the district.” Board members fielded a variety of anonymous, written questions from audience members on the court-embattled voucher program, among other issues. The
Weather stopped schools cold Officials say frozen pipes don’t point to larger issues By Jane Reuter
jreuter@ourcoloradonews. com School officials say the closing of five schools and a burst pipe at another Jan. 14 was not an indication of a larger problem, but an unfortunate set of near-simultaneous problems caused by bitterly cold temperatures. Four schools — Cherry Valley, Franktown and Sedalia elementary schools and Parker’s Sierra Middle School — suf-
fered only frozen pipes, and were closed because the buildings temporarily had no water supply. In two others, pipes froze and then burst. At Legend High School in Parker, damage to ceiling tiles and flooding caused by a broken sprinkler system was enough to close the doors for the day. At Northridge Elementary in Highlands Ranch, classes continued with students and staff working around the problems. “These are individual issues,” said Douglas County School District Chief Operations Officer Bill Moffitt. “Three out of the four that froze were wells, and those were external
to the building. At one, we had a water pipe coming up just inside the boiler room that has an outside entrance. “Two of the well sites had never frozen before, and those schools are 30-plus years old,” he said, referring to Franktown and Cherry Valley Elementary schools. “That was a complete anomaly for us.” The immediate problems have been fixed, and the district now is working to ensure they don’t recur. “Our goal is to provide a learning environment for kids every day,” Moffitt said. “We weren’t happy about the situation but we certainly hope to learn from it.”
program, instituted in 2011 and quickly halted by a lawsuit and subsequent Denver District Court injunction, now is awaiting a ruling from the Colorado Court of Appeals. But that likely won’t be the final word. “There is a possibility the case will go to the U.S. Supreme Court,” Richardson said. “Our program was modeled on programs that have been approved by (federal judges).” Some of Colorado’s constitutional amendments don’t apply at the federal level, and if the choice program is approved there, it could open the door for many other states to enact similar changes. Highlands Ranch-based Republican state Sen. Ted Harvey, among the audience members, declared his support. “You’re fighting the fight of angels and we are on your side,” he said. The public forum was one of the first such events hosted by the local Republican Party, said vice chair Tanne Blackburn. “A lot of people don’t really know what the school board’s doing, or what their plans are,” Blackburn said. “It was a matter of providing information.”

Don’t dawdle, Denver diners
Skiers have been enjoying the powder at Vail Resorts for 50 years. The resort has hosting celebrations all winter to mark the anniversary. Photo courtesy of Vail Resorts
Ski areas celebrate across Colorado Vail man grew up lucky with three resorts By Ryan Boldrey
rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com Pete Seibert Jr. doesn’t know life without a pair of skis. Like so many Coloradans, his first taste of the Centennial State’s winter wonderland took place at Loveland Ski Area, which his dad managed in the 1950s. It was when he was 7, though, that his dad changed the face of Colorado ski country forever. Along with a tight-knit group of friends, all of whom were serious skiers, Pete Seibert Sr. turned an empty valley full of vision into the reality now known as Vail. That was 50 years ago, and this winter Vail is one of a handful of resorts across the state celebrating a landmark birthday. Loveland just blew out a cake with 75 candles on it Jan. 12. “We had a couple things working against us, with the cold and the Broncos playoff game, but everyone that came up had a great time,” said Loveland marketing director John Sellers, adding that the resort’s celebration will continue through the end of March with its 75 days of giveaways and plenty of specials. Tommyknockers, the nearby Idaho Springs brewery, has also made a special anniversary beer.
Loveland has just 31 percent of its terrain open, but has eight of nine lifts running. “We are hopefully one good storm from dropping some ropes and getting a lot more open,” Sellers said. “It looks like there’s going to be a shift in the weather pattern and we’ll finish out the month snowy, but weather is hard to predict beyond a week out.” Down the road at Vail, skiers and boarders are enjoying having 30 of 31 lifts and 98 percent of the terrain open, and although their big bash is behind them too, there is plenty going on the rest of the winter to help celebrate the resort’s history. There will be interactive ice sculpting at the Gore Creek Promenade through Feb. 10 and guests can visit the Colorado Ski and Snowboard Museum all season long. Vail’s original marketing director, Roger Cotton Brown, also created a special documentary for the 5oth, titled “Vail, the Rise of America’s Iconic Ski Resort,” which will be showing in the Lionshead Welcome Center through April.
Keeping the party going
Other resorts in nostalgic party mode this season include Copper Mountain, which celebrated its 40th anniversary opening weekend, Eldora, which turned 50 this winter, and Steamboat, which just concluded a 10-day party to commemorate 50 years. Steamboat Springs’ Howelsen Hill — the training ground for 79 Olympians — will hold its 100th Winter Carnival Feb. 6-10. “We used to go down to the winter car-

Courtesy photo by Dustin Schaefer nival at Steamboat each year when we were kids,” Seibert Jr. said. “We grew up on the east side of Eagle County, where sheepherders were replaced by the skiers, but going down there you’d get into the thick of cowboy country. We’d go on a ski tour through town and the cowboys would pull us.” While Seibert Jr. has skied all over Colorado and the West, most of his memories stem from his days as a youth in Vail, where he has been selling real estate for the last 20 years and still takes advantage of as many powder days as possible each season, some of them with his dad’s friends who helped make Vail what it is today. “It was just an incredible stroke of good luck to be born into that situation and have a chance to experience it,” he said. “It was (my dad’s) creativity, energy and effort, not mine, though, that made it all happen.” Seibert Sr. died 10 years ago, but left behind one of the world’s most visited resorts. “The town has changed a lot over the years, but what makes Vail ‘Vail’ is all of the local places, many of which have been around since the beginning,” Seibert Jr. said. “Once you get to the backside of Vail it is a lot like it was in the late ‘50s though, before there were lifts. It helps keep you grounded.” At that time, Seibert Jr. recalls, summers were like “a real Huck Finn sort of thing, out in the woods and playing in the creek.” He also remembers days when the town of Minturn was where you had to go for groceries or a movie and when the doctor left the mountain each spring when the snow melted. As much as things have changed though, the freedom found in skiing will last forever.
Hoping for a 7 p.m. reservation at Barolo Grill, Elway’s Cherry Creek or Ocean Prime during Denver Restaurant Week(s)? Prime time seats at those foodie favorites are filled. The menus for the 9th Annual Denver Restaurant Week(s) (Feb. 23 to March 8) last week went live at www.denverrestaurantweek.com, and many of the most popular spots were “fully committed” (restaurant speak for “you’re out of luck, pal”) before the end of the work day with the exception of early (5 p.m.) or late (after 9) reservation slots. But with more than 300 restaurants already participating in the event that charges $52.80 per couple ($26.40 for one) for a three-course meal, there are plenty of eateries to go around. But, if you snooze, you lose. One way to check reservation availabilities is to go to www.opentable. com. “The great fun of restaurant week is gathering together friends, exploring the hundreds of menus on the website, and then experimenting and trying new restaurants or revisiting old favorites,” said Richard Scharf, president & CEO of Visit Denver, the owner and organizer of the event. More than 300 restaurants have already signed up to participate in 2013 with more coming on board every day. “We will continue to post menus on the site as we get them from the restaurants, so it pays to check the site frequently,” Scharf said. While the event continues to grow — with 339 restaurants participating last year, Denver broke all records for restaurant weeks across the country — some beloved fine dining spots opted out this year. Perhaps most notably, was the decision by Bonanno Concepts, the restaurant company owned by chef Frank Bonanno, to “86” its two white tablecloth spots, Mizuna and Luca d’Italia, from the Denver Restaurant Week(s) menu. Other lower priced Bonanno Concepts restaurants — Osteria Marco, Russell’s Smokehouse, Lou’s Food Bar and Bones (which are all wonderful) — are still part of the program. “Frank gives his chefs freedom when it comes to menu creation and events, and the chef teams at Mizuna and Luca d’Italia have decided to decline participation in this year’s Denver Restaurant Week because they simply prefer to run business as usual,” said Lauren Hendrick, PR and marketing coordinator for Bonanno Concepts. “It’s really as simple as that.” A new feature on the www.denverrestaurantweek.com website allows diners to share their “Must-Dine” lists with their friends on Facebook, giving them yet another way to make their plans. Based on surveys, a record 404,400 meals were served during DRW 2012, up 12 percent over the 360,480 total meals served in 2011. Website traffic at the DRW site saw 7 million page views in 2012. Scharf encouraged diners to make reservations early, but sent a word of warning to “no shows.” “Please honor your reservations,” he said. “One of the most frustrating things about the event is when people make a reservation, and don’t show up, denying other diners that time slot. Don’t be a no-show! Please notify the restaurant if your plans change so they can fill that table.” And, on another note, please remember Parker continues on Page 19

My in-laws recently moved here from Wisconsin and they made friends instantly…it’s absolutely beautiful and the people are awesome!
bike racing and anything outdoors. At this stage of my life, I absolutely love watching my kiddos excel in these areas. We are pretty devoted to soccer, ski school, and biking/walking our two crazy dogs whenever we can. What is one tip you have for someone looking to sell a house?

I volunteered to walk the dog during the showing and he decided he needed to “take care of business” ON the neighbors’ lawn…he was also a competing Real Estate agent. I did clean up after him although there is an extra fee for that!

SECURITY DEPOSITS

I
f you either are or have been a landlord or tenant, you undoubtedly have heard of Colorado’s treble damage statute pertaining to security deposits. Knowing that the statute exists is not enough. It is important to understand how it really works. The purpose of a security deposit is to provide the landlord with a financial resource in the event of a default by the tenant or for damages done by the tenant to the property. However, the money, although held by the landlord, still belongs to the tenant. Colorado law requires that at the end of one month after the termination of a lease or surrender of the premises, whichever occurs last, the landlord must ei-
ther return the full amount of the security deposit to the tenant or provide the tenant with a written accounting of the damages incurred and how that portion of the security deposit is to be withheld and applied by the landlord to repair damages. This is true, whether there is a written lease or not. The landlord may, in a written lease, extend the one month time period to no more than sixty days from the lease termination or surrender of the premises. If the landlord fails to either return the full amount of the security deposit or does not provide the written accounting required by the statute, together with the check for the remainder of the security deposit, the landlord forfeits all of his rights to recover any part of the security deposit. The landlord then also becomes potentially liable for treble the amount of the security deposit, plus attorney fees and court costs, in the event that suit is brought against him. However, in order for the tenant to recover treble damages, attorney fees and court costs, he must send a written notice to the landlord providing him with a seven day notice that a suit will be brought in the event that the full amount of the security deposit is not returned.
Mortgage Corner
It is then too late for the landlord to get a second bite of the apple and refund only that portion of the security deposit after damages are deducted. The landlord must return the full amount of the security deposit since he has forfeited all of it in failing to comply with the original one month or 60 day deadline called for by the statute, under C.R.S. 38-12-103. T o o often landlords think that they can provide a list of damages within the seven day notice period and return only that portion of the security deposit that they feel the tenant is entitled to because of the damages incurred. However, the landlord has missed the boat
landlord to include in his lease a 60 day time period within which to return the security deposit in order to give him sufficient time to assess the amount of damages, if any, that were incurred. It is also important to note that the landlord may retain the security deposit in full for non-payment of rent, abandonment of the premises, non-payment of utility charges, repair work or cleaning contracted for by the tenant. He may not retain any portion of the security deposit for normal wear and tear. Knowing how the statute works is essential to understanding your rights, whether you are a landlord or tenant.
and is now responsible for the full amount of the deposit despite any damages that may have been done to the premises. If the case is brought to court, the landlord will be stuck with treble damages, attorney fees and court costs, but may be allowed an offset for the damages incurred. If he fails to request that offset, he might have to bring a separate court action only on damages incurred to the premises, but in both cases, he will still be stuck with treble damages, attorney fees and court costs, all of which will make his oversight, even if an offset is allowed, a losing proposition. It is probably a good idea for a

‘Noises Off ’ turns comedy on Physical show set for run at Lone Tree
IF YOU GO “Noises Off ” runs Jan 29-Feb. 10 at Lone Tree Arts Center, 10075 Commons St., Lone Tree. Performances are daily except Monday. See: lonetreeartscenter.org for times and prices, which start at $29. Or call the box office, 720-5091000 (Mon.-Fri. 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.)
By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com “It’s one of the funniest contemporary farces — a difficult show to do” director Nick Sugar said about Michael Frayn’s “Noises Off.” It will play Jan. 29 to Feb. 10 at Lone Tree Arts Center, produced by LTAC and Starkey Productions. “We have a group of talented, fun, energetic actors,” Sugar added. They are an essential component of a successful production of this fast-moving show. These actors are skilled in physical comedy and the splitsecond timing that’s needed to pull it off. Frayn had the idea for the play after watching the backstage dynamics of a cast. The first act shows a rehearsal of a not-verygood acting company, on tour with a fictional British sex comedy, “Noises Off.” Act II is a mad series of interactions in a country house. Act III is the final night performance. “It’s all in the timing,” Sugar said. “Act II is all physical — basically choreographed.” This veteran director is an experienced
Trina Magness (Dotty); Anna Gibson (Brooke); Michael Bouchard (Garry); Rachel Bouchard (Poppy); Lauren Bahlman (Belinda); and Evan Marquez (Freddie) appear in “Noises Off ” by Michael Frayn at Lone Tree Arts Center. Courtesy photo choreographer as well. “In Act II, we say ‘OK, your body has to move this way, while you’re holding this prop…’ We need to tell the story very cleanly.” The script requires a two-story building, with lots of doors, set on a revolving stage. Sugar said Lone Tree Arts Center was able
to borrow it from the Colorado Shakespeare Festival, which produced the farce last summer. He has been able to have it set up in the rehearsal space, and then they’ll take it apart and rebuild it on the stage — “a real luxury.” Usually, actors have to imagine the
set while they are rehearsing, until the last week or so. This cast started rehearsing on weekends in December. (Sugar was also in rehearsals for “Forever Plaid” which opened at Town Hall Arts Center on Jan. 11.) “We’re laughing a lot,” he says of the rehearsal process. “This comedy took me out of the musical theater realm to the drama realm and an exploration of accents too” — a pleasant change for a busy director. “I can’t help but love those guys,” he says of cast members Lauren Bahlman, Michael Bouchard, Rachel Bouchard, Kurt Brighton, Scot Calhoon, Anna Gibson, Trina Magness, Evan Marquez and Ron Welch. Sugar, whose next project will be “Hair” at Town Hall, serves as a board member at Town Hall and helped arrange a partnership wherein Town Hall fans could get $10 off tickets for the Lone Tree production by using the code TOWNHALL when they order tickets.

Comedy Works makes list
Stand-up comic Amy Schumer included the Denver Comedy Works club in a lauded list of her top 10 top-flight comedy clubs in the country, which she shared with USA Today in its Friday edition. Longtime Comedy Works owner Wende
Curtis, who has locations on 15th near Larimer and in the Landmark development in Greenwood Village, has created a national reputation for her clubs among stand-out stand-up comedians. Schumer, whose Comedy Central series “Inside Amy Schumer” premieres April 30, told USA Today that “the layout, the staff and the type of crowd all help make for a memorable show.” The story says that “Schumer recorded an album at this downtown Larimer Square club, and particularly likes the crowds.” “They’re smart and they’re excited … and the staff knows how to produce a show,” she said. Curtis said she was thankful that her club was included in such a list of luminaries. “I think I speak for all of us who know we have created something really special in Comedy Works,” she said. “The comics, the staff, the management, the crowds and the spaces themselves … well, they speak for themselves. And we know how comics feel about Comedy Works. They tell us week after week. “And now more of the nation knows.” Check out coming shows at both locations at www.comedyworks.com.

Ice, age, no problem for 87-year-old Skater still competes after more than seven decades By Deborah Grigsby
dgrigsby@ourcoloradonews.com When Yvonne Dowlen laced up her first pair of skates in 1939, Franklin Roosevelt occupied the White House. And now, almost 75 years later, the former Ice Capades soloist still hits the ice with poise and grace — even skating competitively. “It’s just my thing,” Dowlen said. “I love to skate.” Dowlen began her career as a professional skater at 13 on a lake in Evergreen. By the time she was 18, the Lakewood resident was skating on a 20-foot by 20-foot square of ice at the famous Adolphus Hotel in Dallas She even performed with the Ice Capades. After Dowlen married and had kids of her own, she settled into motherhood, but wasn’t quite ready to shelve her skates permanently. “I took both my kids out on the ice and
we made it a family thing,” she said. Her daughter, Sherry Dowlen, 49, also skates competitively and is a five-time U.S. Figure Skating adult champion with more than 500 medals and awards. The elder Dowlen said she’s lost track of her medals and has quit counting. The younger Dowlen said when it comes to exercise, her mother prefers the chill of the ice rink over “a sweaty gym.” Yvonne, who will turn 88 in July, still skates as much as five times a week, and enjoys watching the youngsters on the ice around her. “I’m just amazed at what the young kids do these days,” she said. “They are so much better than I was at their age, and they’re starting so young, you know they’ll be good.” Yvonne, who was in Centennial Jan. 20 at the South Suburban Family Sports Center for the International Skating Institute competition, admits she’s starting to notice a few changes in her body. “Well, I’m noticeably more stiff,” she said with an impish grin. “And the leg doesn’t come up quite as high, and the bend doesn’t go down as low, but I just love to skate.” When asked if there will ever be a time when she hangs up her skates for good, the
Yvonne Dowlen, left, stands with her daughter Sherry. Both women actively compete in figure skating. Yvonne, who is 87, laced up her first skates when Franklin Roosevelt was president. Photo by Deborah Grigsby silver-haired beauty simply rolled her blue eyes. “Uh, no. I’m not planning on quitting,”
she said. “I’ll probably wear out another set of skates long before I do that.

1955 isn’t all it’s cracked up to be By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com “Yesterday seems so much simpler … but was it?” asks director Chip Walton in his program notes for the dark new comedy “Maple and Vine,” by Jordan Harrison, playing at Curi-
ous Theatre through Feb. 23. “Nostalgia is fascinating and makes up the core of this beguiling new play … What if you had the chance to go back in time, replacing the frustrations of the digital age for the simplicity and comfort of an earlier time; do you think that

would really make you happier? Would the conformity of an earlier era be suffocating or would the limitations actually be liberating?” As lights go up in “Maple and Vine,” the audience joins a Manhattan-based very 21st-century couple, Katha (Karen Slack) and Ryu (Dale Li) in their bedroom. Someone outside is heard shouting and discussion ensues about living elsewhere … (They have recently lost a baby and reflect the tragedy differently.) What if they moved to a planned community where it’s permanently 1955? It’s governed by The Society of Dynamic Obsolescence, and by social mores of the mid-’50s. At first appearance, Dean (Josh Robinson) and Ellen (C. Kelly Leo), who are in New York recruiting for the 1955-era community, would seem almost pictureperfect — but are they? Katha and Ryu make

the move, transitioning her from her Manhattan office to her ‘50s home and kitchen, ‘50s dresses (costume details by Kevin Brainard are excellent), afternoon meetings with Ellen of a women’s committee that oversees social concerns — and a pregnancy. Dale, a plastic surgeon in New York, takes an entrylevel factory job, supervised by a somewhat threatening Roger (Stuart Sanks). Of Japanese-American heritage, Ryu meets racial prejudice at work and socially. Dean and Ellen have

Tensions affect all the characters — none of them can fit into preconceived molds — and yet this expert cast avoids caricature. The play also avoids resolution of the various dilemmas it creates, so the audience may leave feeling somewhat un-
settled, inventing more story segments about these characters on the way home. For one who started a marriage in the ‘50s, “Maple and Vine” touched on some long-hidden tender spots, but it offers an engaging, thought-provoking evening of theater — perhaps a bit cerebral — the kind of work Curious does well.

Cookbook sends gluten scootin’ Author’s tour includes stop in Highlands Ranch By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com As we write, author Anne Byrn has started on a book tour that will bring her to the Highlands Ranch Tattered Cover Book Store at 7:30 p.m. Jan. 31. She visits Seattle, Minneapolis, Grand Rapids and Phoenix before she arrives in Denver to promote “Unbelievably Gluten-Free.” Byrn, who has published several imaginative, best-selling cookbooks such as “The Cake Mix Doctor” — including one on gluten-free cakes and desserts — had requests from her audiences to please help out with recipes for gluten-free dinners. In Denver, they asked for fried chicken, pot pie and pizza, for example. Her audiences swapped tips and she took notes, instead of just being the speaker. She spent about a year developing recipes that used sweet rice and sorghum flours, spaghetti made from corn, gluten-free baking mix, pizza crust, panko crumbs, corn tortillas and brown rice noodles, which she
found at her supermarkets — with some searching. Cream sauce can be made by cooking down heavy cream until it thickens and gluten-free bread makes better croutons and crumbs if toasted. She writes: “It is estimated that one in 133 people in the United States and Canada suffers from celiac disease, where the body is not able to metabolize gluten.” Many more people are sensitive to gluten and a number of those also need dairy-free food. Many of her recipes have a dairy-free variation, although that’s not possible for those with a heavy cheese component. Her recipes have notes on preparation, alterations and more. They are clearly written with easy instructions and many are prefaced by a little story about the recipe’s origin — a plus for those of us who read cookbooks as much as they cook from them. One finds recipes for Breakfast and Brunch; Little Snacks and Nibbles; Soups and Stews; Breads; Chicken, Meats and Other Mains; Pasta and Pizza; Salads and Sides; and Sweets. Among the Mains is Mexican lasagna, which sounds like a good bet for most family dinners. She says not to worry if tortillas come in a different size — just estimate the bulk.

Economic Development Group Hear Optimistic Forecast at First Meeting of the Year by Manny Gonzales mgonzales@bestchamber.com
The future of economic development in the Denver area lies in innovation, technology, taking advantage of entertainment district opportunities and providing support to small businesses owners through federal loans. This was the report from city and state economic development directors to the South Metro Denver Chamber’s Economic Development Group (EDG) last week. Paul Washington, the city of Denver’s economic development director, and Deborah Cameron, the director of Business Development at the Colorado Office of Economic Development & International Trade, were the featured speakers at the EDG’s first meeting of 2013. They shared encouraging outlooks for business development in the metro area and the rest of the state. “Work is currently underway to determine what’s our Colorado business brand that will help position us to recruit
a lot of new companies to the state,” Cameron said. Cameron pointed to recent priorities set by Gov. Hickenlooper’s office that will result in the legislature considering a bill that provides economic development incentives for startups. The bipartisan-supported Advanced Industries Accelerator Act would allow the state to funnel funding to early-stage technology companies and concepts, she said. Typically those companies lack the profits initially to allow them to take advantage of tax credits provided through current state incentives. “The new year is off to a fabulous start, “ she said. “Those industries are critical to the economy.” Washington told the 80 business executives in attendance that Denver’s future economic growth would rely heavily on the prosperity of businesses in the metro region as a whole and said the city would make moves in the future to provide assistance to businesses outside Denver’s boundaries. The first pillar of Denver’s economic development strategy will be centered on business retention, Washington said. The city is focused on retaining the more than 26,000 businesses within its boundaries and is creating a database of all major commercial leases so
that city officials can track and meet with business leaders before they start thinking about leaving Denver. “We’ve already been able to retain one of our largest headquartered businesses thanks to this initiative,” Washington said. He also revealed future development plans, such as developing the area south of Sports Authority Field as an entertainment district that will keep fans in the area before and after Denver Broncos games. Another future strategy will be to develop the National Western Stock Show area into a yearround center devoted to education and understanding the “Spirit of the West.” “The stock show and the stadium are really going to fit into a broader range of thinking,” he said. The Economic Development Group is a premier group at the Chamber - a regional organization that attracts decision makers from major companies throughout the South Metro Denver region. All EDG members are Investors in the Chamber. For more information and a listing of EDG members go to www.bestchamber.com. To join the group and the Chamber, please contact Manny Gonzales at mgonzales@bestChamber.com.

Spotlight shines on local authors Douglas County Libraries hosts series of showcases rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com Douglas County Libraries is providing the stage to introduce dozens of new area authors to the community in 2013. With the launch of a four-part local author showcase series, spread out throughout the year, DCL will be giving different authors the opportunity to talk about, read from and sell their books at each of the four major county branches. The application period is closed for the first event, March 10 in Highlands Ranch, but the Parker, Castle Rock and Lone Tree showcases all have space available, and while authors need to be local they need not be from the specific town where the event is held. The showcases are open to authors in most genres who have published or selfpublished after Jan. 1, 2011. “Any time you can encourage a new author it’s really important because the more choices you have in books and e-books the better the world is, really,” said Lisa Casper, program liaison for the district and the brains behind the series. “I’ve been working with local authors who live in or around Douglas County for some time. A lot of them are self-published and some of them are very small press, so they tend to have their books but they aren’t

Lions flex their muscles in big win over Holy Family
2A Lutheran takes down 3A Tigers in stingbattle of top teams
help theirBy Jim Benton
jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com
el of and PARKER - Lutheran is sort of dus-playing our of its league. word The Lions girls basketball brar-team, ranked second in Class 2A sites,poll, is battling against 3A teams whoin the Metropolitan League, but so far it hasn’t mattered. 6:30- Lutheran hosted Holy Family, anchthe state’s No. 3 ranked team in sec-a Metro League showdown last k. ToWednesday and outscored the Ti, callgers 20-1 over the final 9:52 of the oun-game to earn a 41-27 league vicopentory. The Lions, who finished second in last season’s 2A state tournament, beat Kent Denver 49-27 last Friday to swell their league record to 3-0 and improve to 9-0 on the season. “The league is so tough, the players, coaching and everything,” Lutheran coach Mark Duitsman said. “We are fortunate to see this kind of action every night. And, I think we’ve shown we can compete.” Holy Family coach Ron Rossi knows that playing in the Metro League will benefit the Lions during Class 2A postseason play. “That’s a good team,” he said. “It’s an unbelievable bonus to be able to play in an upper division in the tough Metro League. It’s going to make them tournament ready where Akron (top-ranked 2A team) is not playing the same type of competition.” The defensive competition displayed by Lutheran and Holy Family was exceptional as neither team shot well. Lutheran managed to hit only

Photo by Courtney Kuhlen 27.5 percent of its field goal attempts against the Tigers’ zone defense while Holy Family managed to connect on 23 percent from the field against the Lions’ half-court man-to-man defense. Holy Family led 26-21 with 1:52 left in the third period but Katie Chavez’ free throw with 3:13 remaining in the fourth quarter was the only tally the Tigers could manage the rest of the game. “We believe in our man defense,” Duitsman said. “The depth of our roster is a factor on offense of course but I think it is more of a
factor defensively because we can maintain our pressure. “Holy Family is up there with the best of them as far as their movements, their screening and their actions so I was really pleased.” Jennifer Vigil, a 5-foot-5 senior who was a second team Class 2A All-State selection, and 5-10 sophomore Chandler Sturms hit big baskets to spark a 15-0 Lutheran run that transformed a five-point deficit into a 36-26 lead before Katie Chavez scored the Tigers’ lone point of the fourth quarter.
“Our shooting wasn’t surprising,” Duitsman said. “They were packing it in. They were daring us to shoot. We just weren’t knocking them down. We just felt that if we stayed within ourselves on defense that eventually we could get something to break open in the second half. “We didn’t change anything. It was just a matter of trying to stay confident because we are a good shooting team. It was just one of those games where we had to fight through some droughts.” Vigil, who had a game-high 17 points, starting driving to the basket to open things up for the Lions. She made a three-point play and sank a 3-point basket to spark Lutheran’s game-winning surge. “I just do whatever I can,” Vigil said. “Our team may not be hot right away but all four quarters we play our hardest and it usually pays off. We do what we need to and we play such good defense and I’m just so proud. “When we go up against 2A teams, there isn’t anything we haven’t seen because we play in the Metro League and it really builds our confidence.” Sturms finished with 13 points with 11 coming in the second half. Katie Chavez, who picked up her fourth foul late in the third quarter, had 13 points, three assists and two steals for the Tigers. Holy Family was 0-for-10 from the field with seven turnovers during the final 9:52 of the game. “The drought, our point guard (Katie Chavez) getting her fourth foul and the five-second call (turnover) and all of a sudden, boom, that changed the momentum and we had to chase and foul and it was game over,” Rossi said. Lutheran had a home game Wednesday against Jefferson Academy and hosts Bishop Machebeuf Friday.
Mustangs take third at Arvada West Invite Pomona takes team crown with three champions By Jonathan Maness
jmaness@ourcoloradonews. com ARVADA - The Pomona wrestling team continued its domination over the weekend. The Panthers won three individual titles and took first at the Arvada West Invitational on Saturday with 148.50 points. “We are doing pretty good (this season),” said Austin Marvel, who won the title at 138 pounds. “We should have a pretty solid team this year.” Joining Marvel on top of the podium for Pomona was Raymond Robledo (132 pounds) and Archie Colgan (160). Taking second at the tournament was Greeley West (144 points) and Ponderosa (142.50) finished third. Ponderosa crowned two individual champs, Kelton Good at 152 pounds and Dylan Gabel at
170. Coronado also had two, Trent Watson (106) and Jess Hankins (113). Beer Creek’s Corky Phillips beat Ponderosa’s York Douglass 12-2 to win the title match at 195 pounds. The Bears’ P.T. Garcia finished second after losing 8-4 to Martinez in the 126-pound match. Francisco Sandoval (106) and Jason Yakobsen (120) each went 2-2. Legacy’s Skylar McWee took first at 225 pounds after pinning Fountain-Fort Carson’s Jake Schoenberger. Conner Casady (160) finished third for the Lightning. Ryan Deakin (106) and Luke Robinson (182) both went 2-2 at the tournament, but didn’t place. Legacy was 10th at the invite. Arvada West finished seventh at the tournament and had four wrestlers place, including Tony Silva-Bussey - who finished second after losing to Gabel 5-3 in overtime. Jerry Trujillo (120), Payton Tawater (126) and Taylor Bergquist (138) all took third. Chaparal was eighth and also four wrestlers place, including Frank Martinez (106), JT Stancil

Falcons soar past Chaparral in league opener Wainwright pours in 24 to pace Highlands Ranch By Jim Benton
jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com PARKER - The showdown wasn’t much of a show. Highlands Ranch, the state’s third ranked girls basketball team, used a smothering first half defensive performance and shellacked a rusty No. 6 Chaparral team 71-36 in the Continental League opener for both teams last Friday. “The first half we came out on fire and ready,” Highlands Ranch coach Caryn Jarocki said. “Our defense was awesome. We only allowed them one shot on offense when they were shooting. That allowed us to start our fast break.”
The Falcons’ defense, rebounding and fast breaks helped Highlands Ranch run to a 15-4 first quarter lead which was increased to 33-6 at halftime. “We had played one game in 29 days,” Chaparral coach Tony Speights said. “We couldn’t buy one, we couldn’t do what we wanted to do. They had all the momentum working. We fell behind and just couldn’t catch them.” The first half wasn’t pretty for Chaparral fans watching in the Wolverines gym. Chaparral made only two of 19 field goals opening 16 minutes and committed 14 turnovers. The Wolverines had scoring droughts of 6:07 and 7:34 in the first half. “I thought Abriana Lujan did a real nice job on Bacovcin (Katrina) and CC (Ciera Morgan) on Longwell (Katie),” Jarocki said. Bacovcin, Chaparral’s leading scorer, had only five points. Longwell finished with
19 points but 17 came in the second half both teams started to sprinkle reserves into the lineup. “We came out and we were fired up,” Lujan said. “Coach told us in order to win the game to fire up the defense first. I felt our trap was everywhere and we didn’t let them have an open shot or an open pass. We were always in the passing lane.” Chaparral surpassed its first half point total in the first 2:24 of the third quarter as the Wolverines perked up their game in the second half. “You saw from the first half to the second half a little bit of difference,” said Speights. “We played much better in the second half. We played a little looser.” The Falcons knew they couldn’t let down in the second half. “At halftime we said we can’t let down because they would come out ready to go,”
said junior forward Emily Childress. “We kind of had a letdown at the beginning but then pulled it together. It was our first league game and our coach said it was a good proving game for us.” Kelsey Wainwright, a 5-foot-11 senior, led the Falcons with 24 points. Madison Montgomery and Shelby Hickey each had 10 points. Lujan, a 5-10 senior, finished with nine points while Morgan and Childress each had eight points. Highlands Ranch, 10-3 overall, played at Douglas County Tuesday and entertains Heritage Friday. Chaparral, 9-3, traveled to Castle View Tuesday before playing at top-ranked Regis Friday. “It doesn’t get any easier but that’s okay,” said Speights. “We will be prepared and go forward. We’ll make a run in this league. We’ll be fine.”
Titans hold off Littleton for much needed win By Craig Harper
sports@ourcoloradonews.com LITTLETON - Realistically, the Legend and Littleton girls basketball teams realize wins will be at a premium in arguably the state’s toughest league. That’s why last Friday night’s Continental opener between the two at Littleton was vital for both of them, and why the Titans were breathing a sigh of relief and the Lions are behind the 8-ball heading into a brutal four-game stretch that began with Tuesday’s game against No. 1 Regis Jesuit. Legend, with nine sophomores on its roster, got 22 points from Mataya Racek, one of two seniors, and survived a turnover-infested game for a 58-48 victory, its first win in four tries since the holiday break. “We needed it really bad,’’ said second-year Titans coach Eli Moore, whose team improved to 5-6. “We had a threegame losing streak and really needed to find a way to win.’’ Racek, Legend’s top returning scorer after Madison Porter opted not to return and concentrate on tennis, where she is a Division I prospect, picked a good time to awaken from a bad case of the shooting blahs. She shot 4-of-35 from the floor in the three post-break losses. She scored 2 and 4 points in the first two, and 12 in the third but needed to go 7-8 from the foul line for that. Friday, Racek was 8-of17 from the floor. “We were in a little slump and, personally, I was, too,’’ Racek said. “We just fought back and played for each other. I was just trying to be there for my team. I’ve been working on being positive and finishing around the basket and getting to the line. “We really needed the win, and it’s going to help us throughout league getting the first win.’’
Littleton (7-6) had won four straight and seven of nine and seemed on track to making huge strides from last year’s 7-17 mark. The Lions averaged 53.7 points while allowing 41.3, a sharp turnaround from last season’s 37.8 and 53.3. Playing without 6-1 junior Stacey Zuppa -- their leading rebounder and No. 3 scorer, who has signed to play lacrosse at Duquesne University, who was competing in California with her club team - the Lions had trouble matching Legend on the boards. It didn’t help that 6-0 Kate Winslow had foul trouble and sat out all but a few seconds of the second quarter. All of that forced Littleton coach Adam Williams to adjust with a four-guard lineup that was effective on defense but not so much on offense or the boards. The Lions forced 36 Legend turnovers but were outrebounded 36-18. Joey Sale, a 5-11 sophomore, led the Titans with 11 rebounds and added 13 points (7-10 free throws). “Our whole thing is to outrebound the opponent and keep our turnovers under 20,’’ Moore said. “We outrebounded 20 of 24 opponents last year and all 11 this year. But when you turn the ball over 30-some times … you can’t do that.’’ Littleton’s defense was disruptive, to say the least, its quick lineup forcing numerous double-teams on the ball resulting in tie-ups or outright steals. It helped the Lions build an early 11-7 lead, but Legend’s foul shooting, combined with Littleton’s struggles at the line, enabled the Titans to pull ahead in the second quarter despite the Lions getting a big lift from Kiera Lindgren. A slight 5-5 sophomore, Lindgren scored nine of her career-high 13 points in the second quarter. But Littleton was just 4-of-15 from the foul line in the first half to Legend’s 13-19, and the Titans led 26-23 at the break.
Legend’s Joey Sale goes up for a shot Jan. 19. Legend defeated Littleton 58-48 at Littleton High School. Photo by Courtney Kuhlen Racek scored nine points as Legend settled down somewhat in the third quarter, building a seven-point lead that stretched to 11 early in the fourth.
