Finance bill rankles school board County taxpayers could be hit hard By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com The Douglas County School Board long has urged a revision of the state’s school funding formula. That wish is now coming to fruition, but not in the way members had hoped. Board member Kevin Larsen said the current proposal in the Colorado General Assembly only would increase the disparity

among districts, and make matters much worse for DCSD students and taxpayers. “The cure is worse than the sickness,” Larsen said. “When we further compare that to the taxes that are going to be paid, I think Larsen people are going to be astounded. The net for us would always be to put more into the state than we’re getting back.” The Democratic-controlled Colorado Senate approved the bill April 2 on a partyline vote. If Senate Bill 213 passes the Gen-

eral Assembly, the state’s voters would then be asked to approve an income-tax increase of about $1 billion to fund the plan. Therein lies the rub. While DCSD would get more funding under the changes to the base calculations, Douglas County’s high per-capita income means taxpayers here would be hit hard by the proposed incometax increase. “The candy that’s going to be used to entice people here is that everyone’s funding is going to go up (under the new formula),” Larsen said. Supporters maintain the change is long overdue. The state’s Public School Finance Act last was updated in 1994.

“It was crafted before any of us used Internet, email, or cell phones,” said Sen. Mike Johnston, D-Denver, sponsor of the bill. “Within the past five years, K-12 education suffered nearly $2.5 billion in cuts. Now is the time to reinvest and achieve greater adequacy, equity, and sustainability in our education system.” As proposed, it would bring an additional $43 million to DCSD, but about $16 million of that would go to fund additional early childhood education. “The cost to the taxpayers to get that $43 million, through a new change in incometax rate, would be in our estimation probBoard continues on Page 9

A magical night of music, memories Special-needs group holds Parker prom By Chris Michlewicz

cmichlewicz@ourcoloradonews.com It was billed as “a night of music and dancing,” but turned out to be so much more. People with special needs don’t always get to experience the milestones that others do, and that is exactly why one group decided to stage a prom just for them April 6. The first-time event, called PROM-US and put on by the Rotary Community Corps of Parker, was just like any other high school dance, but on a smaller scale. That doesn’t mean it wasn’t a big night. Dates arrived hand in hand — one lucky fellow even had a lady on each arm — and corsages decorated the wrists of dozens of women in flowing gowns. The couples, and even those who came stag, beamed during their official prom photos. Hugs, high-fives and a few tender moments were exchanged. Then came the dancing, a let-loose, grabyour-friends-and-shake-it display that got the entire room jumping. Parents and siblings, on hand to chaperone, were as consumed by happiness as their loved ones. Debby Schacht, of Parker, says that years ago, when the geneticist told her that her baby girl had a mental disability, one of the first thoughts to cross the young mom’s mind was that her daughter would not be able to attend prom. She looks back on that thought as inconsequential in

So, when a friend’s son, who happens to have the exact same disability, asked Hannah to prom, mom and daughter had the

chance to go through the painstaking preparations together. Schacht wore a proud smile all night, and when asked what it was like to witness her daughter having the time of her life at prom, she responded: “Really, pure joy.” The evening was a pleasant surprise for Prom continues on Page 12

A bill that would expand tax incentives for the purpose of new hires in the state’s aviation field is flying through the Legislature with bipartisan support. House Bill 1080 modifies the 2005 Aircraft Manufacturer New Employee Tax Credit, which provides a one-time $1,200 tax credit for a new employee that is hired by an aircraft manufacturer. The bill expands the available tax incentives to manufacturers that provide aircraft maintenance, repair and modification services, which were not included in the bill from eight years ago. Rep. Chris Holbert, RParker, a bill sponsor, said it’s important to extend the existing earned tax credReport its in an effort to attract highpaying jobs in a growing field, rather than having planes fly to other states just for the purposes of having repairs done. “We have to recognize that big carriers like United or Frontier, when they need to maintain an airplane, very often they’ll fly it to Wisconsin or Chicago to do the work there, and then bring it back,” he said. “I think it’s ridiculous that Colorado is losing out on those job opportunities. Why not do that maintenance, why not do more of that final fit and finish kind of work while they’re on the ground here?” Holbert said he was approached about the idea for the bill by representatives from Centennial Airport, which has runways that extend into Holbert’s Douglas County legislative district. Airport Executive Director Robert Olislagers said Colorado is in a tough competition with other states for tax incentives for aviation jobs. “Twelve hundred dollars in tax credits doesn’t sound like a whole lot,” Olislagers said. “But, if you add that in with other incentives that Colorado counties are providing, it starts to add up.” Olislagers also said he hopes the bill will create more aviation jobs for veterans, especially when it comes to work that involves modifications of military aircraft.

Award-winner’s ‘impact’ profound Safety expert recognized for contributions to town 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 A trip down memory lane for Cheryl Poage is like visiting with old friends. Named the winner of the Rotary Club of Parker’s 2013 Impact Award, Poage has had her hand in so many projects that benefit the public, it’s a wonder that none of them have been named in her honor. But Poage is always the lowprofile, behind-the-scenes organizer who pulls the strings when they need to be pulled and demonstrates an uncanny knack for motivating people when the time is right. The accolades mentioned during the Impact Award ceremony at the Parker Arts, Culture and Events Center on April 2 surprisingly don’t even scratch the surface. Poage, in the fashion of most gracious award-winners, is both humble and modest about the recognition and refuses to take

sole credit for the improvements that have occurred under her watch. “I am a change agent and always have been, but I never do it alone,” she says. “I always have a group of interested people helping and I wish they could be recognized, too.” Poage, now the programs administrator for the South Metro Fire Rescue Authority, took an unconventional path into the fire service. She more accurately refers to the path as “circuitous.” It started in 1975 when a freak accident at her Rowley Downs home left her then-10-month-old daughter unable to breathe. When Poage tried to summon rescue crews, the pre-911 emergency line went unanswered. Her daughter survived thanks to some very basic care Poage administered, but being a “vocal person,” she led a charge to create Parker’s first dispatch center. And when a volunteer was needed to staff it, the young mom stepped up. Poage’s decision to become a volunteer firefighter six years later stemmed from another odd incident in which a girl at her daughter’s school ended up with a lacerated femoral artery when her leg

The Rotary Club of Parker chose Cheryl Poage, the South Metro Fire Rescue Authority’s grant/ program manager, as the winner of the 2013 Impact Award. The award goes to a person who exhibits personal sacrifice or heroism and exemplifies the Rotary motto of “service above self.” Poage has also volunteered in many roles for the fire department. Courtesy photo by JIm Boyd went through a glass window. Poage happened to be on scene and waited what seemed like hours for emergency medical personnel to arrive. It’s no wonder that Poage went on to become the executive director of the South Metro Safety Foundation, overseeing safety education programs of all types.

The nonprofit foundation recently completed its push to get automated external defibrillators into every public school in Douglas County. On the side, Poage runs a firm called Safety First Consulting, where she acts as an adjunct instructor for the National Fire Academy and works with busi-

nesses on safety plans via instructional technologies and online training mechanisms that she has built. Poage also has played an integral part in the development of the community by taking on various leadership roles. She was a part of the citizens’ commission that helped create the first master plan for Douglas County; served as director of the Douglas County Parks, Recreation and Open Space Commission before starting a similar effort in Parker; was instrumental in helping establish the regional trail system by starting the first few links of the Cherry Creek Trail near Mainstreet; and helped convert ownership of O’Brien Park from the county to the town. Poage’s latest project focuses on getting thousands of Douglas and Arapahoe county residents CPR-certified. The award presentation caused Poage to “refocus on the things I’ve been involved in in the past.” “For me, it’s more a matter of getting the work done at the time, and I don’t think about anything else (like recognition),” she said, adding that her experiences over the years have themselves been rewarding.

Obama’s visit was met with some protests outside the police academy. And, earlier in the day, several Colorado sheriffs held a press event, denouncing further gun-control efforts. But Obama sees value in passing gun measures. He said Congress needs to address the loopholes in the current national background-check system for gun

purchases, as Colorado legislators have done with recent legislation here. Obama said that if a person wants to buy a gun, “you should at least have to go through a background check to show that you’re not a criminal, or someone legally prohibited from buying one.” The president cited statistics that indicate background checks often do keep guns out of the

hands of dangerous people. “So, this does work,” he said. “And, by the way, if you’re selling a gun, wouldn’t you want to know who you’re selling it to? Wouldn’t you want in your conscience to know that the person you’re selling to isn’t going to commit a crime?” Obama also said high-capacity ammunition magazines have no place in our communities.

“I don’t believe that weapons designed for theaters of war have a place in movie theaters,” he said to applause. “Most Americans agree with that.” The president acknowledged the polarizing nature that surrounds the gun-control debate. He said Colorado is a state where hunting is a tradition, and where guns are “handed down from generation to generation.” “And they treat gun ownership with reverence and respect,” he said. At the same time, Obama said it’s important for people to understand where the other side is coming from on these issues. “There doesn’t have to be a conflict between protecting our citizens and protecting our Second Amendment rights,” the president said. Among those who attended the speech were Hickenlooper and U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder. The two took part in a round-table discussion on gun issues that involved Obama, prior to the president’s speech. Others taking part in the discussion were police and Colorado citizens whose lives have been affected by gun violence. Several state legislators also were attendance, including Rep. Rhonda Fields, D-Aurora. Fields — whose son was shot to death in 2005 and who sponsored some of the state’s gun legislation — said she felt that her work has been validated by Obama’s trip. “I feel really good about what we did here in the state of Colorado,” Fields told reporters. “And I think the rest of the nation should follow suit.”

rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com More than a dozen Colorado sheriffs gathered in Denver in opposition to Colorado’s new gun restrictions at the same time President Barack Obama spoke at the Denver Police Academy in favor of the new laws. The group of sheriffs, which included Elbert County’s Shayne Heap and was supposed to include Douglas County’s David Weaver, gathered April 3 at Thomas Memorial Park, within a mile of the president. While Weaver missed the event for personal reasons, he issued an open letter to citizens of Douglas County two days later, outlining his feelings on the laws. “I believe that more restrictive gun laws for law-abiding citizens will not have any positive effect on public safety,” he said in his letter. “They will not prevent another massacre in a theater nor another mass murder in a school.” Weaver pointed to both the Aurora theater massacre and the Newtown elementary school shooting and addressed the fact that both of the killers had been able to purchase or steal guns despite concerns about

Club carries on legacy of Hilltop Group maintains school building, history of town By Chris Michlewicz

cmichlewicz@ourcoloradonews.com A new art festival will showcase not only the work of potters and painters, it will bring attention to the last standing building in a long-abandoned town. Hilltop, an unincorporated town established in 1888 around a railroad depot between Parker and Elizabeth, has been forgotten by all but a few loyal ladies who comprise the Hilltop Social Club. The 15-member group is in charge of maintaining the only remaining structure, the Hilltop School, which is still owned by the Douglas County School District. The school is used mostly as a gathering spot for the social club’s business meetings, but on April 27 it will host the first Hilltop Art Fair, which is being organized by the women’s fellowship at Hilltop United Church of Christ across the street. From 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., artists of all kinds will display and demonstrate their crafts, and the proceeds from sales will benefit both the Hilltop School and the church. For more information about the art fair, call 303-841-2808. The idea behind placing booths at the historic school is to familiarize the public with its heritage and advertise it as a place for special events like weddings. Situated on three pristine acres at Flintwood and Democrat roads, near the Douglas-Elbert county line, the school is in remarkably good condition. It was built in 1898 after the original one-room schoolhouse burned down. The Hilltop Social Club has not missed a monthly meeting since its inception in 1921, and the women began leasing the building when K-8 classes were moved to Parker in 1954. Some longtime members of the club, like Susy Cushman, who joined in 1965, and Be Dent, who joined in 1979 and has lived in the area for 74 years, recall friendships with

Eileen Enterline and Be Dent, right, share a smile at the Hilltop School, which was built in 1898 and now is used as a gathering spot for a long-running social club, of which Dent is a member. The historic school is hosting an art fair April 27. Photo by Chris Michlewicz a few teachers, whose pictures now hang on the wall. “We’re trying to keep the memories alive,” said Dent, 85. The Hilltop School has been turned into a museum of sorts. Its walls are lined with memories: a photo of a class standing out front in 1930; lists of teachers and students. The school is a clearinghouse for all things Hilltop. Books contain photos of the town’s old haunts, like the train depot, general store, post office and the Hilltop Trucking Company. “It was pretty bustling,” said Louise West, one of the social club’s newest members. “It had a big population, but most of them have died.” The foundations of the other buildings,

now on private property east of the school, have crumbled. Hilltop was crippled when the railroad closed in 1935 and the trucking company was, by most accounts, the last one to leave. The group continues to search for artifacts from the town’s heyday. “We just keep digging,” Cushman says. “Some of that stuff is still kicking around.” Upkeep is not always easy at the school, and the social club has small fundraisers to pay for maintenance. The roof, furnace and gutters were replaced recently, with some financial assistance from the school district, but there are plenty of repairs that need to be made. The Hilltop Art Fair, complete with food and live music, is being viewed as a potential annual fundraiser to help with the costs,

and the church across the street sees it as an opportunity to have a community event for families. “The women’s fellowship though it was good time to add to the culture out here,” said Eileen Enterline, who is organizing the fair and partnered with the social club. “It’s interesting. I have lived here so long, but learned so much about the area from this project.” Members of the social club will be on hand acting as docents. They will share stories — like the one about an engine used to push the train disconnecting and rolling clear down the hill to Denver — and speak about the school dances and elections and town meetings that once echoed through the school.

parker news in a hurry Town warns about coyotes

The Town of Parker is putting out a new warning to protect families and their pets from coyotes. Residents should avoid feeding coyotes, as it can make them less afraid of humans and potentially more dangerous. Never leave pet food or water outside because it can attract coyotes. Garbage should not be kept outside and should be placed in secure, tightly-sealed containers. Always supervise pets outside, especially from dusk to dawn. Keep pets inside at night if possible. Walk pets on a short leash

and never let them interact with wildlife. Pick up small dogs when coyotes are visible. If a coyote is too close or approaches, scare or haze it away. Parker residents should report coyote incidents immediately to the animal services division at 303-841-9800. For more information, visit the town’s website at www.parkeronline.org/coyotes.

Offbeat `Romeo and Juliet’ planned

What would Shakespeare say? For that matter, what would Dr. Seuss say? Auditions for “The Seussification of

Romeo and Juliet” by Classic Acts are from 5-7 p.m. April 23 for ages 10 to 19 at the Mainstreet Center. There will be a cold reading from the script and the cast will be determined the same evening. The performances are June 1 at the Parker, Arts Culture and Events Center. Aviation bill could bring jobs A bill co-sponsored by a state legislator from Parker passed the House and is expected to boost job creation. Rep. Chris Holbert, R-Parker, was the driving force behind House Bill 1080, which provides tax credits for aviation

companies involved in maintenance, repair and modification of aircraft. Introduced in January along with co-sponsor Rep. Tracy Kraft-Tharp, D-Arvada, the bill was passed on April 5. The bill would expand a $1,200 tax credit for new hires that now applies to aircraft manufacturers. Companies providing aviation maintenance and repair, completion, and modification would be added. The legislation affects Centennial Airport, one of the busiest general-aviation airports in the country, among other transportation hubs.

2011 death played role in legislation Lawmakers pass bill launched by coroner By Rhonda Moore

rmoore@ourcoloradonews.com

When Douglas County Coroner Lora Thomas helped draft legislation to tighten Colorado’s coroner law, she called on Laura Couillard for support. Couillard and her husband, Ernie Couillard, were more than willing to help. The Castle Rock family in 2011 had a firsthand look at the coroner’s protocol when their 15-yearold son Christopher was found unresponThomas sive in the basement of their home. The coroner determined he died of asphyxiation in the aftermath of a party that went wrong. What the coroner could never tell them was when he died. “We’ll never know if an earlier phone call to 911 would have saved him,” Laura Couillard said. “For the other four survivors who were in the house that day, they’ll have to go t is a through life never knowing if an earlier 911 call could have saved Christopher.” The coroner was unable to deter-

mine time of death because sheriff’s investigators said a search warrant was needed before coroner’s staffers could enter the house. The elapsed time between the 911 call and the time death investigators were able to view the body was more than eight hours. It was too late to obtain time-sensitive information such as rigor and livor mortis and body temperature — all pivotal to determining time of death, Thomas said. “There was nothing in statute that spoke to the importance of collecting time-sensitive information,” Thomas said. “The wording I used in the Legislature puts the traffic lines on the road. We now know who belongs in which lane. It’s given us better direction.” Thomas in 2012 worked with the Colorado Coroners Association to draft legislation that ensures timely access to death scenes and spells out which types of cases require an investigation. As that measure — House Bill 131097 — made its way through committees this year, contributors to the legislation worked to ensure the rights to privacy afforded by the Constitution remained intact, said Douglas County Undersheriff Tony Spurlock. The bill passed the House in February and the Senate in March. The final version will have no impact on the way the sheriff’s office

handles death investigations, Spurlock said. “The bill contains and upholds the belief that the Fourth Amendment is the most important part of a death investigation, criminal or non-criminal,” Spurlock said. “If it takes a while for someone to get into a scene because we have to get a search warrant, everyone wants to ensure that our property is safe from the government. “Our interest is taking care of the victims, the criminal investigation and the family left behind,” he said. “Our policy is to take care of the crime scene using best practices throughout law enforcement. We’ve been doing that for years.” Couillard shared her experience with lawmakers in a letter to Rep. Rhonda Fields, D-Aurora, in hopes of influencing legislators’ decision. She will always be haunted by the question of whether her son could have been saved by an earlier phone call, she said. “The major part was to make sure that no other family would ever have to go through what we did,” Couillard said. “(Christopher’s) brother and his friends have to live with never knowing if an earlier call to 911 could have saved Christopher’s life. They have nothing but regret and remorse for not calling sooner, but could an earlier call have saved him? We will never know.”

Activist, family man dies at 38

Friend says Wright ‘We have really suffered a loss with him. He was ‘was always selfless, never self-promoting’ such a unique character because of his drive and his great love of the country.’

By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com Well-known Douglas County Republican and father Steven Wright died of complications from a stroke April 4. A memorial service is planned at 9:30 a.m. April 12 at Skyview Presbyterian Church in Centennial. Internment will follow at 12:15 p.m. at Fort Logan National Cemetery, Staging Area C. Wright, 38, is survived by his wife, Monica, and children Garrett, Hannah, AbiWright gail and Peyton. Wright was a computer systems administrator at Catholic Health Initiatives in Denver, and a part-time real estate agent with Home Smart Real Estate Group. Wright served in the Air Force until 1997. He also was an assistant dis-

Mark Baisley trict captain for the Douglas County Republicans. He served as campaign manager for former Douglas County Republican Mark Baisley during his recent run for state party chairman. “He was just so energetic,” Baisley said. “You can’t believe all the things that he would get involved in. That’s why there’s such an outpouring for him now. So many people remember him for being so many places and being so involved. He was always selfless, never self-promoting.” Though Wright had not sought political office, Baisley described Wright as “the epitome of the American conservative.” “He was trying to preserve the founding principles,” Baisley said. “He would do that through promoting other people to office he thought would affect the restoration of government

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

rmoore@ourcoloradonews.com The Outlets at Castle Rock made its annual Easter pancake breakfast a double-duty event, raising nearly 500 pounds of food for a local food bank. The Outlets hosted its traditional holiday event with a visit from the Easter Bunny and a pancake breakfast that usually costs $5 per person. In lieu of the ticket price, organizers this year invited people to bring a can of food to donate to the Douglas/Elbert Task Force. The Castle Rock-based task force provides aid and food to residents who are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless. The Outlets’ outreach to the local nonprofit coincided with record attendance at the mall’s annual Easter breakfast. “(The) event was our biggest Easter breakfast ever,” said Lisa Zetah, director of marketing for the Outlets at Castle Rock. “We had over 300 families in attendance, who provided over 465 pounds of food for the Douglas/Elbert Task Force.” Event organizers were overwhelmed by the number of people who attended the breakfast, with several armed with bags of

N Protecting Your Home from Wildfires

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

rmoore@ourcoloradonews.com Visitors to this year’s Empty Bowl can skip the Friday rush hour to make it to one of Castle Rock’s more popular fundraisers. The Empty Bowl, which raises money for victims of domestic violence, moved to a Saturday for the first time in its 13-year history. It is a move organizers hope makes it easier for people to make the trip to Castle Rock. “We’re trying to help those people who can’t make it to Castle Rock after work on a Friday,” said Heather Orr, event and grant coordinator. “If you don’t live in Castle Rock, it’s kind of hard to get to the event. We wanted to do it on a Saturday afternoon and make it a little more family-friendly.” The Empty Bowl ranks among the crisis center’s largest fundraisers. At its peak, it sold out at about 1,000 tickets, with a goal to raise $80,000 for the center that provides shelter, legal advocacy and crisis support for victims of domestic violence in Douglas and Elbert counties. In recent years, attendance has hovered between 700 and 800 tickets, prompting organizers to opt for a weekend event in hopes of restoring attendance to its former level. The center also noticed that those who attended the event had something else in mind — many made the event a family outing, Orr said. “We noticed more and more people are bringing their kids,” she said. “This year we’ll have activities for the kids.” The shift resulted in a few other changes at the event, Orr said.

Indiana voucher ruling cheers board president Carson cites similarities between programs, while plaintiff notes differences By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com

Douglas County Board of Education President John Carson is encouraged by the recent Indiana Supreme Court decision to uphold that state’s voucher program. In a unanimous March 26 decision, the court ruled Indiana state school funds can be used to finance private school tuition. The decision likely ends a case started in tions2011. ce is More than 9,000 students are enrolled ason,in Indiana’s program, which shares with icateDouglas County the name “Choice Scholarship Program.” reez- The Colorado Court of Appeals in Febgoesruary reversed a lower court decision and ruled the Douglas County School District’s n has cated love t the they cchicook-off.

“I will note that many of the issues in that case were very similar to the ones in the Colorado case,” he said, pointing to religious issues and the fact that parents — not school districts — directly pay the privateschool tuition. That fact was paramount in the Indiana decision, which ruled parents were the primary beneficiaries of the program, and not religious schools. “The voucher program does not directly fund religious activities because no funds may be dispersed to any program-eligible school without the private, independent selection by the parents of a program-eligible student,” according to the Indiana Supreme Court ruling. “Fortunately, the Indiana Supreme Court has ruled the program is constitutional there,” Carson said. “I think it’s now safe to say Indiana has now established itself as the leading state in the country, possibly alongside the state of Wisconsin, in promoting school choice.” Douglas County voucher opponent

voucher program did not violate the state constitution. Opponents of the voucher program intend to appeal the case to the Colorado Supreme Court. DCSD implemented the pilot Choice Scholarship Program, allowing parents to use a portion of public school funds toward private school tuition, in March 2011 before the lower court issued an injunction stopping it in August 2011. Carson As in the Douglas County case, opponents in Indiana argued that the program took money from public schools to instead benefit primarily religious schools. A key difference, however, is that eligibility for participation in Indiana’s program is income-dependent, and aimed at poor and middle-class families. DCSD’s has no income requirements. Nevertheless, Carson sees it as a potential harbinger for the future of DCSD’s program.

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com Douglas County School District’s lead Nutrition Services employees earned second place and impressed state legislators with their cooking talents in March during the annual Colorado Ag Day at the state Capitol. The annual event spotlights state agriculture by partnering a dozen chefs with ranchers and legislators to create Coloradoborn dishes. Judges awarded DCSD’s braised beef short ribs the red ribbon in the Farm-to-Fork

“It’s fun to show off that school lunch is cool,” DCSD executive chef Jason Morse said. “It’s not mystery meat anymore.” Colorado Agriculture Secretary John Salazar teamed with Morse and catering manager Kim Wolfrum to serve the ribs in the rotunda. “We served easily 500 off of our table alone,” Morse said. “There was a line the entire day.” Prep work began two days before the downtown Denver event in DCSD’s catering kitchen at Douglas County High School. Ralston Valley Beef donated the meat, and the DCSD team took it from there. “Because we couldn’t have open flames and cook inside the Capitol rotunda, we had to bring

everything with us,” he said. “We seasoned the meat, rubbed the beef and let it sit, then came in and braised it the next day. The morning of, we finished the braise, removed it from the bone, hand-shredded the meat, loaded our cars up and headed down.” Morse, who sits on the Colorado Chefs Association board of directors, described it as “an amazing day.” “As an industry leader, I think it’s wonderful to be involved in it,” he said. “As a school district chef, it gains us so much exposure. My goal has always been to put us on the map for school lunch.” While Morse won’t share all the ingredients that went into the award-winning ribs, he will reveal the one he thinks is key to DCSD

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

OPINIONS / YOURS AND OURS

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Discretion will be applied to gun rights

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

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

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

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

Parker Chronicle

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

Cinamon Watson said she did not know who was conducting it and only learned about the survey through Facebook posts. In 2010, DeGrow and Education Policy Center director Pam Benigno served on the Douglas County School Choice Task Force. In 2011, DeGrow became chairman of the Choice Scholarship School that helped implement the controversial voucher program. The program was challenged in court, and was recently upheld by the Colorado Court of Appeals. A recording of the survey includes an array of questions about the school board, this November’s board elections, groups that have criticized the board, the failed 2012 teachers’ union negotiations, the proposed teacher pay-for-performance program and the voucher program. “Who do you think has the best interest of Douglas County schoolchildren at heart?” the recorded voice asks. “The Douglas County Federation, also known as the teachers union, or the Douglas County board of education?” Among the questions in the survey: • “Thinking now about the Douglas County School Board and local education issues, do you have a favorable or unfavorable opinion of the Douglas County School Board?” • “Among the following list of char-

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

Douglas heir County has relatively few students who fall into those categories. e “Douglas County provides 9.5 peralso cent of the state’s income tax collecnsti-

tion,” Larsen said. “We have 7.5 percent of the state’s kids and receive about 6¾ percent of the state’s funding. There’s no way this is an adequate return and justifiable for the kids in our district.” The potential increase in income taxes also dims the chance voters would approve a future ballot issue on local education funding, Larsen said. “I think we’re taking a first step in a worse direction before really circling back,” he said. “We do need to address school finance. I think we need to

hat

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

I grew up here so I thought going away for college would be a good idea. But I missed the mountains and realized UCCS is the perfect fit. The College of Business has great professors and the small class sizes mean I get more personal attention. When you take 18 to 20 hours a semester like I do that makes a big difference.

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

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

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

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

Tips to avoid injury while spring cleaning By StatePoint

Cleaning your home from top to bottom this spring? Do so with care. From falls off ladders to muscle pain, heavy-duty chores can be hazardous to your health and wellness if you’re not careful. – in- So before you roll up ona-your sleeves and get into the thick of it, take a mogbirdment to review some essential safety precautions: n vaAvoid outdoor mishaps W hen mow ing the lawn, wear sturdy, closedtoe shoes. Clear your lawn of stones, toys and other potentially hazardous eren-debris before you begin, to prevent flying objects. addi-Keep children away from midyour yard while you’re Foli-mowing. ch as Reduce the risk of a ladTheyder fall by always using a keepstable ladder. Be sure to l be-use the correct height ladder for the job and follow all weight restrictions. Onreen-ly set ladders on level surfaces. Pay close attention to what you’re doing and climb up and down the ladder slowly and deliberately.

al

Treat muscles right From lawn work to scrubbing floors, unusual repetitious motions can really take a toll, resulting in muscle pain or bruising. Treat your spring clean like a workout and stretch your

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

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

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

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

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

could get that credit.” One of the factors that Ruth sees is that new FHA regulations dictate that homebuyers not under contract by June 3 will have to pay mortgage interest for the life of the loan, instead of having it drop off once the amount owed is down to 78 percent of the original loan amount. FHA loans are very tempting now, Ruth said, coming in about a halfpoint lower than conventional loans and hovering around 3.3 percent to 3.5 percent, but paying mortgage insurance for 30 years can add $40,000 in cost to a $200,000 home over the life of the loan. “There are a lot of other programs available out there,” Ruth said. “Don’t panic over the changes. It’s important to sit down with your lender about six months before you buy and make sure you are aware of all your options and that your credit is in order. “If you’re credit isn’t good, it may be able to fixed in as little as six months to a year.” The Colorado Housing Finance Authority, which First Cal Colorado is affiliated with, has multiple programs

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

rmoore@ourcoloradonews.com The Douglas County Fair Foundation has begun efforts to raise money to install a permanent memorial plaza on the county fairgrounds. The foundation board hosted a luncheon April 4 to begin the effort to install the Heritage Plaza Memorial as a permanent structure on the fairgrounds. The memorial will provide a place to recognize notable county residents, said Bruff Shea, foundation president. “There is so much going on at the fairgrounds,” he said. “It has become a year-round facility.” The foundation is a nonprofit corporation operated by volunteers with a goal to provide financial support to the Douglas County fair and rodeo. The foundation aims to educate residents about the county’s Western heritage, encourage family activities like 4-H through the fair and rodeo and build community engagement to support the fair. Engagement began with a $25,000 donation by Castle Rock’s Medved Autoplex and another $10,000 donated by area businesses. With the launch of the fundraising, Medved and other

Scott Waterman, with Wilson & Co. Inc., and Kayla Goodson, the 2013 Douglas County Fair & Rodeo Queen, catch up at the April 4 Fair Foundation luncheon, which raised money for the Douglas County Heritage Memorial Plaza. Photo by Rhonda Moore high level donors will gain permanent recognition in the Heritage Plaza. The overall goal is to raise $500,000, Shea said. “We’re proud to be a part of this,” said Diana Blanch, Medved executive assistant. “We hope everybody jumps on board.” Once constructed, the plaza will feature brick pavers available for $250

that residents can purchase to memorialize a friend, associate or family member. Construction is expected to begin in May in hopes of completing the plaza by this year’s fair, said JonnaNegus Pemberton, fairgrounds manager.

organizers, who greeted 25 more special-needs attendees than expected, and nearly 70 total. The free event was made possible by a handful of sponsors, a generous DJ and host venue Parker United Methodist Church. The church’s pastor, Randy Jessen, and his wife, Sue, were happy to donate the space. They, too, have a daughter with special needs, and hosting PROM-US was an obvious choice. “This is just so much fun, isn’t it?!” Jessen exclaimed over the loud music, shortly before Paul Triggs was crowned king and Caroline Smith was named prom queen to wild applause. The prom attracted individuals with special needs from Parker, Castle Rock, Highlands Ranch and Aurora, among other south metro towns. It was such a rousing success that there are already plans to make it an annual event. “We couldn’t be more pleased,” said Kam Breitenbach, organizer for the community corps. The Rotary community corps is designed for those age 15 and up with special needs to “become active in their community, learn leadership skills, feel like a vital part of their community, become socially active and give back to their community,” the group says.

What is one tip you have for someone looking to buy a house? Get your finances in order, meaning get pre-qualified with a local lender. Make a list of things like, where you want to live, what features you want in the home and your non-negotiable things.

Buying a home? Avoid these mistakes

T

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

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

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

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

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

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

A cast made up of accomplished Equity actors, including several from the Denver metro area, fills the Lone Tree Arts Center stage for “Lost Highway,” a musical story of singer Hank Williams, the legendary singer and songwriter who died at 29. Courtesy photo by Danny Lam

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

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

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

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

Street art inspires woman’s abstract works By Sonya Ellingboe

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

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

smo

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

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

From Prince Charming to Carmen, enjoy songs and arias by the smooth operators of musical theater and opera!

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

Parker: ‘Ballroom with a Twist’ coming to Buell Theatre

Parker continues from Page 20

Laird lands at Sarto’s

Since talented chef Brian Laird left Barolo Grill, after a 12-year stint in command of the kitchen, he bounced around Denver’s dining scene between the now-shuttered Russo’s in the Vallagio development in Arapahoe County to the now-shuttered RockBar on East Colfax to Sketch at 101 Broadway. I don’t think that Laird knew what he wanted to do when he grew up. But the boy wonder (he looks younger than his years) finally has landed at a spot I think he can call home. Sarto’s, a northern Italian eatery poised to open in the fall in a vacant centuryold property at the corner o the of Eliot Street and 25th s Avenue, will be the cenog terpiece of an emerging neighborhood between e Highland and Sports Auluthority Field. the n

n’t e

Laird and majority owners Taylor Swallow and Kjsa Gotlin share a passion for northern Italian cuisine, which will be adapted for contemporary tastes. Laird will craft a seasonal made-from-scratch menu featuring locally sourced products, handselected Italian specialty items, antipasti creations, house-made pasta and wood-fired selections. A floor-to-ceiling bar will feature custom cocktails, Italian wines and beers, as well as a handful of domestic selections. Adjacent to the restaurant will be Sarto’s Pantry, which will offer quick bites for lunch or dinner including soups, sandwiches, salads and pizzas, plus takehome ingredients such as fresh pastas, sauces, meats and cheeses. For more information, visit www.sartos.com or www.facebook.com/sartosdenver or follow on Twitter @sartosdenver.

Mornings with Moreno

I told you recently that CBS4 has hired Britt Moreno from KSAZ-TV in Phoenix, as Alan Gionet’s other half on the “CBS4 Morning News” at 5 and 6 a.m. as well as on the noon news. The news is that Moreno has made her morning debut. Moreno, who is bilingual, is originally from Austin. She attended Trinity University in San Antonio, where she received degrees in communications and Spanish.

Juicy story

This restaurant rumor has some meat to it. According to a broker,

Del Frisco’s Grille, long rumored to be coming to the Denver market, will supposedly take a large space in the First Bank redevelopment project on First Avenue and St. Paul Street in Cherry Creek North.

Music pro to teach songwriting By Sonya Ellingboe

If you go

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

Valor Christian High School is at 3775 E. Grace Blvd., Highlands Ranch. The songwriting class is in Recording Studio Room 046; photography in Photo Lab Room 055; and graphic design in Design Lab Room 051. Classes run April 24 to May 29. For information and to register: valorchristian.com — click on flashing banner for adult art classes to register. For information, call Arts Department Coordinator Nancy Columbia, 303-471-3383.

Musician Marty Magehee will teach songwriting in a new adult education series. Courtesy photo class will meet. He calls it “makeshift” as he anticipates the building of a dedicated space in the projected new art building, which will be built as soon as funding is secured.

The goal for the class: Each student will have written or be part of writing several songs by the end. Development of a core idea, how to recognize “the money idea,” (an industry term), create 20 lines plus the

P

chorus … “nail down the look that makes it happen ….” One and one half focused hours on Wednesday nights for six weeks are scheduled. From a musical family, Magehee taught himself to play the guitar and piano and eventually majored in trumpet performance. He also has a degree in music education. At Valor, he teaches songwriting, advanced worship band, studio recording — beginning and advanced. Also offered are two other classes: “Core Photography” with Brian Rowden and “Intro to Graphic Design” with Mary Kate Dick. All three will be offered from 7-8:30 p.m. on Wednesdays. Each class costs $250 for six weeks.

‘Always ... Patsy Cline’ hits PACE stage Staff report Denver actress Megan Van De Hay, a multiple award-winner, will play late singer Patsy Cline in the Parker Arts, Culture and Events Center’s production, in cooperation with StarkeyTheatrix, of “Always … Patsy Cline” running April 12-20. John Moore, retired Denver Post drama critic, is director of this musical account of Cline’s friendship and correspondence with fan Louise Seger, played by Carla Kaiser Kotrc. Seger learns of Cline’s death in a plane crash and narrates a review of the star’s life, including 27 of her top songs, as Cline drifts in and out .... Think “Crazy,” “After Midnight,” “Your Cheatin’ Heart ….” The production includes a live band, directed by Jayln Webb, and a set by PACE technical director Shaun Albrechtson.

All-League teams named

Keogh grows as tennis player Ponderosa senior will play hoops in college By Jim Benton

jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com Three years ago, Kari Keogh was searching for something to do when not playing basketball. She opted to play tennis, and the Ponderosa senior has developed into a solid No. 3 singles player. “I started playing tennis my freshman year,” Keogh said. “I wanted a second sport to go with basketball. Tennis is so fun. I still haven’t mastered it, that’s for sure. I joined tennis because my friends were doing it and it was a no-cut sport, so I decided I would just give it a shot.” Keogh, headed for St. Olaf College next year to study and play basketball, made plenty of shots last season for the Ponderosa basketball team. She was the Continental League’s leading scorer during the regular season with a 16.6 scoring average, and topped all players with 147 made free throws.

“I think if I took tennis more seriously year-round, I could be a lot better, but basketball is really my passion,” Keogh said. “I’m really in shape, which I find a lot of time in tennis, girls aren’t. And my footwork, it all comes from basketball. Basketball and tennis cross-train a lot.” Keogh was undefeated last season in tennis, but suffered her first loss in the second round of the state tournament. She hasn’t lost in four matches this season and defeated Littleton’s Anna Sonja 6-0, 6-0 April 4 in a Continental League dual meet at Littleton. “If Kari would have started at a younger age in tennis, she could have easily gotten a tennis scholarship,” Ponderosa coach Lisa Damico said. “She is so confident now. She went undefeated last year but she was uncertain in a lot of matches. This year she’s very calm and very certain. She’s not cocky, but just certain. “It will take someone with really good tournament experience to beat Kari. She has never had a private lesson. She’s just all natural. Someone who grew up playing at age 8, was formally taught and plays tournaments year around will have a shot at her.”

Keogh won a long first game that went to deuce four times against Sonja, and then went on to post an easy straight-set victory. “I think I’ve gotten a lot better,” Keogh said. “I started playing doubles and I liked it a lot, and now I practice a little more in singles. I’m trying to come to the net more, that’s where I like to be. When I played doubles, that was my favorite part. I try to get up there when I can. “I really want to make it further (in the state tournament) than last year. I want to place this year. That’s my goal, to stay undefeated and place at state. It takes me a long time to get in the groove, but I’m on track to meet my goal. I’ve got really good No. 1 (Lauren Lindell) and No. 2 singles (Brittany Glantz) players to hit with, so that helps me a lot.” Keogh and Lindell won their matches against Littleton to help the Mustangs remain unbeaten in four dual meets this season with a 4-3 win over the Lions. Ponderosa’s No. 1 doubles team of freshmen Allison Smith and Lindsey Schroeder and the Mustangs No. 2 doubles pair of seniors Carly Lauer and Codi Morton won their matches to provide the winning margin over Littleton.

Hot bats carry Wolverines past titans Chaparral pulls away with five runs in seventh inning By Jim Benton

jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com Two of the Continental League’s preseason baseball favorites got together April 8 in a marquee league opener. Chaparral, the state’s No. 2-ranked Class

5A team, sent 11 batters to the plate in the seventh inning and scored five runs to secure a 9-5 victory over host Legend, last season’s state tournament runner-up. Two of the league premier players, Chaparral’s returning All-State player Max Kuhns and Legend’s Bobby Dalbec, were matched as the starting pitchers. Kuhns had three hits and drove in two runs but pitched only three innings after limping into second base after his third-

inning double. He was obviously bothered but pitched the bottom of the third inning before giving way to the Wolverines’ bullpen. He played three more innings at third base but left the game after walking in top of the seventh inning. “He hits a double off the fence and pulls up lame going around first base,” Chaparral Chaparral continues on Page 24

Legend baseball wins three

Continental League play opened Monday and last year’s Class 5A state runner-ups Legend warmed up with three victories. The highlight of last week’s action was the Titans’ 6-4 victory over Pine Creek April 2, when Anthony Kaasch belted a three-run home run in the bottom of the seventh. Michael Klein limited Dakota Ridge to one run over six innings and hit a two-run homer in Mountain Vista’s 7-1 victory. Chaparral also notched a victory over Dakota Ridge as Max Kuhns allowed just one hit over five innings in an 11-0 triumph.

PARKER — Week after week, senior Tanner Townsend keeps establishing new Castle View High School track standards. And the records he is breaking are his own. Townsend is the school record-holder in the 100-, 200- and 400-meter events. On March 30, he won the 100-meter dash at the Broomfield Shootout with a school standard 10.74, and April 6 he was first in the 200 meters at the Legend Track Clash with a 21.61 time, which lowered his own school mark. Townsend has only run in the 400 meters once this season, so his 48.93 is still listed as the best in the Castle View record book. In the April 6 meet at Sports Authority Stadium, Townsend ran in the 200 meters and on two Sabercats relay teams. “I like the 100 the best,” said Townsend, who was third in the 100-meter dash and seventh in the 200 meters at last spring’s Class 5A state meet. “Doing all the events kind of helps me. I didn’t run the 100 so I could kind of focus on the 200. “I’m just trying to reach the times I set out to reach this season because that’s my main thing, going to state. I’m very happy, I’ve been progressing every meet. I need to get my 400 time down and that will be good.” Townsend, a standout on the Sabercats football team, is headed to the University of Sioux Falls to play football and run track next year, but for the time being Castle View coach Ryan Whitenack has to figure out what events to have his star sprinter enter. “He runs the 100-, 200- and 400-meter dashes for us and holds the school records

in all of them,” said Whitenack. “Tanner has the ability to run a variety of distances, which is awesome for our team. There are so many that he can do that, as his coach, it is hard to choose his events week in and week out. However, that is a nice problem to have.” Townsend was one of three boys who attend Douglas County schools to win events at the April 6 track meet. Rock Canyon’s Colin Borner edged his teammate Austin Kiel to win the pole vault with a 13-foot vault, and the Jaguars’ Cameron Gill captured the triple jump with a 4503.50 leap. “I could have done better, but our practice last week was really, really hard,” Gill said. “We were set up up like the week of state. I didn’t get a PR but a 45-3 was acceptable.” Gill, a senior who accepted a track scholarship to Western State, was the triple jump runner-up at last season’s state meet. “So far I’m happy but I could always do better,” he said. “I’ve been staying consistent. I want to get first at state. The vision is to get there but the goal is to win it.” There were three Douglas County girls that were credited with first-place finishes. Ponderosa’s Sarah Lark had the fastest time of 26.12 in the 200-meter dash to edge Castle View’s Brittany Reiner. Megan Cooney of Rock Canyon ran a 5:32.53 to lead all runners in the 1,600 run, and Rock Canyon senior Kelsey Lindemann was best in the shot put with a throw of 36-5.75. Cherokee Trail was the team champion in both divisions. The Rock Canyon girls were second and the Jaguar boys finished third. Castle View’s girls tied Cherry Creek for third place and the Sabercats boys team wound up sixth. Legend and Ponderosa also had teams in the meet. “This was like our meet,” Gill said. “We did very well. Everyone I’ve talked to had PRs. For a young school, we did very well.”

coach Tony Persichina said. “The competitor that he is, he wanted to stay in the game. We want to look down the road. He’s going to be someone we really depend upon. I know he didn’t want to come out but that was best for the team.” Kuhns gave up five hits but didn’t allow a run during his stint on the mound as he came up with big pitches as Legend stranded six runners in the first three innings. Dalbec was touched for four runs in six innings of work. Chaparral used three consecutive doubles in the first inning to score two runs but Carter Kling’s two-run homer sparked a Legend rally that put the Titans ahead 3-2 in the bottom of the fourth. Four consecutive singles in the fifth inning pushed the Wolverines back in front, 4-3, and Chaparral’s five-run seventh sealed the victory. “This team is resilient,” said Persichina. “We get down or a guy comes in and doesn’t have a great inning, we could have just laid

down but that’s not the way this team is built.” Two-run singles by Josh Nicol and Zac Guy were the big hits in Chaparral’s decisive seventh-inning outburst, which made Legend’s two-run rally in the home half of the inning meaningless. “Going into the seventh with 2, 3, 4 coming up, we would have had a chance if we could have got out of that inning,” Legend coach Scott Fellers said of the seventh inning. “That was the longest inning we’ve had all year, give up five runs and putting ourselves behind the eight-ball. “They’re a good hitting team. They put the ball in play. They out-executed us. We couldn’t put anything together. We didn’t have any timely hitting.” Legend saw its three-game win streak snapped, falling to 4-5 overall. Chaparral improved to 6-2 overall with the win. Kuhns, Nicol and Guy combined for six hits and six RBIs for Chaparral. Tanner Thompson and Mike Baird each had three hits for the Titans.
