Chopper contract targets wildfires

Seeing eye to eye

Officials can call for exclusive use of helicopter on as-needed basis By Ryan Boldrey

rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com It was 2010 when Douglas County first signed an agreement with Castle Rockbased Rampart Helicopter Services, using the company on an as-needed, on-call basis to provide aid in wildland firefighting. On April 9, the county commissioners unanimously approved a new contract that allows the county to shift from a call-whenneeded basis to an exclusive-use situation for a minimum of 30 days whenever it sees fit. “Up until today, if the helicopter were in Castle Rock and were available we could call them and use them specifically for wildland firefighting,” said Tim Johnson, Douglas County director of emergency management. “The problem with that contract, though, was that they were not obligated to stay if they had other work and other obligations. “These guys have contracts all over the western United States on a call-whenneeded basis, so they could literally be in Montana doing work for the forest service or a utility company under contract, and a fire could break out in Douglas County and they would be unavailable to us.” By placing Rampart under exclusive use, it gives Douglas County the upper hand, and the service is guaranteed to be on stand-by and ready to go when needed. County Manager Douglas DeBord used his authority to sign an agreement with Rampart April 1, placing them under Chopper continues on Page 9

Ponderosa grad looking for a hit ‘Home Run,’ being released April 19, stars Scott Elrod By Chris Michlewicz

cmichlewicz@ourcolorado news.com

hen Scott Elrod has a plan, he sees it through — and then some. A lifelong interest in the military led him to a job as an air-traffic controller at Buckley Air Force Base in his early 20s. Then, he made use of his computer wizardry and spent several lucrative years as an information technology specialist. When that didn’t satisfy his appetite, Elrod became an entrepreneur and started a company that provides storage for highend vehicles owned by wealthy clients in Los Angeles. But it’s his latest endeavor that has brought the most attention. Elrod, who graduated from Ponderosa High School in 1993, is starring in the new motion picture “Home Run,” coming out April 19. At the age of 30, Elrod decided on a whim to pursue an interest in acting. Despite having never participated in theater, he took an acting class in his spare time and, one year later, hired an agent. “It got to the point of `been there, done that,’” he says. “It was a `now or never’ sort of thing.” He landed a role in an American telenovela called “Desires,” and since then, Elrod has appeared on TV shows like “CSI: NY” and “Men in Trees.” Most recently, he appeared in the critically acclaimed Ben Affleck

Former Parker resident Scott Elrod landed the lead role as baseball player Cory Brand in the feature film “Home Run.” His next project, “Lone Survivor,” stars Mark Wahlberg and tells the story of a heroic standoff involving U.S. troops in Afghanistan. Courtesy photo film “Argo.” His turn as Cory Brand, a professional baseball player forced to face his off-the-field demons, promises to be his biggest break yet. Nabbing the lead role in a feature film backed by a major studio, Samuel Goldwyn Films, might seem like a near-impossibility in an industry rife with competition and unapologetic backstabbing, but to Elrod, it’s the latest successful chapter in his life. And this is one he plans on sticking with. “I want to continue finding projects that give me a chance to do something I haven’t done before and leave a mark on the people who watch it,” he says. Movie continues on Page 9

What ‘Home Run’ is about Staff report Baseball all-star Cory Brand, played by Scott Elrod, knows what it takes to win in the big leagues. But off the field, with memories of his past haunting him, his life is spiraling out of control. Hoping to save her client’s career after a team suspension, Brand’s agent, played by Vivica A. Fox, sends him back to the small town where he grew up. Forced to coach the local youth baseball team and spend eight weeks in the only recovery program in town, Brand can’t wait to return to his old life as quick-

ly as possible. As his young players help him experience the joy of the game, Brand discovers his need to find freedom from his past and hope for his future. “Home Run” will be showing in select theaters, including the Arapahoe Crossing 16 Mann Chinese Theatre at Arapahoe and South Parker roads, beginning April 19. Elrod’s next movie is “Lone Survivor,” which stars Mark Wahlberg and tells the story of a heroic standoff in Afghanistan involving U.S. troops, including Littleton resident Danny Dietz, who died in the fight.

Sign language speaks of community Nadelle Payne, a high school teacher of American Sign Language, can go all day without talking to someone other than her students. She is deaf. “I can pass people in the hall and say `Hi,’” she says through an interpreter. “But not a conversation.” So, on a recent Saturday, she and about 25 other deaf women and men, including high school and college students studying ASL, gathered at a Starbucks in Highlands Ranch to talk. The conversations — lively, graceful, expressive — continued for hours. Fingers moved swiftly. Arms glided, up and down, back and forth. Emotion danced across animated faces. All of it, together, words without sound spinning eloquent stories, woven in a warmth born of shared community. “To immerse ourselves in our own language” is a gift, a reprieve from the isolation that comes with being deaf, Payne says. “Hearing people can talk every day, on the phone … all the time. We talk when we have someone to sign with.” The monthly Starbucks gathering is one of many in the area designed to nurture connection and fellowship among a populace defined by its unique communication and culture. There are deaf social chats at restaurants in Boulder and Castle Rock, silent bowling nights at an alley in Lone Tree, festivals and ASL performances at Rocky Mountain School for the Deaf in Lakewood, an ASL haunted house night during Halloween, a deaf social chat in Superior, a meeting for deaf senior citizens in Denver. “It is like you are going to deaf Mecca where there are all deaf native signers,” says Michelle Stricklen, an ASL instructor at Front Range Community College who is deaf. “It is,” she says in an email, “phenomenal to me.”

Pam Meadows, a Castle Rock resident and California transplant who has been deaf since birth, started the monthly socials at the Highlands Ranch Starbucks about 2½ years ago. “We come here to socialize,” she says through her friend Dawn Davies, a Littleton schools counselor who is not deaf and is interpreting. “But it also helps ASL students so they can experience what deaf people are like.” Davies, who began learning to sign in first grade, attends many of these events to visit with friends. But as a school counselor she also helps introduce first-timers, particularly students, to the group. “I like to help bridge the gap a little bit.” A handful of high school students from Castle Rock and Highlands Ranch are here this day. It is their second visit. They come to practice signing, but they’ve picked up on some other aspects of deaf culture, too. “They’re really close,” Shawna Doughten says. “You can talk across the room,” Makayla Elms says with a smile. “They’re not different,” Paige Luke says. “Other people think they’re handicapped, but they’re not.” The three teens, along with Kayla Hendrickson from Castle Rock, have fallen in love with the language. “It’s just so expressive,” Hendrickson says. “I love how it’s really metaphoric … how you can kind of get creative with it.” “When you’re describing stuff, you’re

supposed to try to create a picture,” Elms says. “You use a lot of motion,” Luke says. The language is actually more straightforward, points out Jazelle Edwards, 9, here with her mother, who is deaf. She is not, though. “You don’t have to say the little words,” such as “and” and “the.” “Sign language is so much fun to talk,” says Clay Amos, who with his fiancee Ivy Oswald recently moved from Pennsylvania. They’ve come to meet new people. Although both are deaf, Amos can lip read and speak; Oswald has a cochlear implant, which allows her to hear, and she can speak. “It’s feelings,” Amos says about signing. “It makes you laugh.” “It is,” Oswald says with a smile, “theatrical.” And just like a spoken language, it has tones and accents, the students say. “People have tones with their voice,” Hendrickson says. “You kind of have a tone of your sign. Everyone signs differently.” George Veditz, former president of the National Association of the Deaf, said this about sign language in 1913: “It is my hope that we will all love and guard our beautiful sign language as the noblest gift God has given to deaf people.” And it is beautiful. To watch people sign is to watch stories unfold like the lyrical melody of a song. You can sense the happiness, the sadness, the excitement, the disappointment — even when you don’t know what the signs mean. But that inability to understand often creates discomfort among those who can’t communicate back, similar to being in a country whose language is not your own. “Many people are intimidated by us,” Payne acknowledges. “It takes a lot of effort for hearing people to communicate” with those who can’t hear. Stricklen tells the story of asking a flight attendant for a menu and being given one

in Braille. “I told her, `No, I just need regular.’ Am I blind?” At the other end of the spectrum, Payne says, “we are afraid we will be misunderstood.” The key, as with anyone who doesn’t know your language, is to try. “We like having friends,” Payne says. “We like it when people make an effort to try and communicate.” On this day, around the tables in the coffee shop, the barriers are down. Two women stand by the door, lost in conversation, eyes focused on each other’s signs. Next to them, Makayla Elms and Paige Luke are signing with little Jazelle and her older brother. Nearby, Payne, Davies and Meadows are in deep conversation with a group clustered in chairs. And at the tall table across the way is Oswald, hands moving, fingers working, animated as she and Amos sign with new friends. A peacefulness of sorts quietly connects them all. They are, in a sense, home. Watch, and listen carefully. The silence speaks loudly.

ACLU nudges voucher case forward Entry $500 (Cash Only)

Two groups petition Colorado Supreme Court to block program By Jane Reuter

Denver Mart - NE Corner of I-25 & 58th Ave Open to the Public

The American Civil Liberties Union took the next step in the process of moving the Douglas County school voucher case to the Colorado Supreme Court on April 11. The ACLU and Americans United for Separation of Church and State filed a petition asking the court to accept the case. It also asked the court to overturn the recent Colorado Court of Appeals ruling upholding the Douglas County School District’s pilot program. The lower court ruled in a split decision Feb. 28 that the district’s Choice Scholarship Program is constitutional, and said the plaintiffs lacked standing to file a suit alleging otherwise. Americans United attorney Alex Luchenitser said the appeals court’s ruling isn’t as significant as that of the Denver District Court in August 2011, which declared the program unconstitutional. “The Supreme Court was going to have the final word on this, no matter how the Court of Appeals ruled, so the Court of Appeals ruling really isn’t that important,” he said. “The Supreme Court doesn’t have to give any deference to anything the Court of Appeals did. It does have to give deference to the factual findings of the trial court. So we were disappointed (by the Court of Appeals ruling), but we’re not sure how much difference it’s going to make.” The pilot program initiated in March 2011 granted a limited number of Douglas County students state school funding to use at private schools, most of which were religious. Proponents say it broadens educational options for students, but opponents say it blurs the line that separates church and state and pulls funding from traditional schools.

Though the program has been suspended since the 2011 ruling, the DCSD school board remains confident they ultimately will prevail. “The ruling (from the Colorado Court of Appeals) was a huge victory for the students and parents of Douglas County and we are confident that the court will once again reject the arguments made by the ACLU,” board president John Carson wrote in an emailed statement. “We know that each student learns differently, and our goal is to provide every parent with the opportunity to choose the best possible educational environment for their child. The Choice Scholarship Program will give our students one more choice to achieve educational success and to prepare for the exciting opportunities that lie ahead in (the) 21st century.” Carson recently said he was encouraged by the Indiana Supreme Court’s decision to uphold a similar program there, but attorneys for the plaintiffs say there are important differences between the two cases. “First of all, Colorado’s constitutional provisions are much stricter than Indiana’s in terms of prohibiting public funding of religious schools,” Luchenitser said. “There also are factual differences between these two programs.” The Indiana program included both religious and non-religious schools, but in Douglas County’s version, options for high school students — except for those with special needs — are limited to religious schools. “This program favors religious schooling over non-religious,” Luchenitser said, “and gives parents incentives to enroll their children in religious schools.” Attorneys representing Douglas County families who originally received vouchers says the program’s design keeps schools and government separate, ensuring its constitutionality. A separate suit against DCSD and the Colorado Department of Education was filed by the nonprofit Taxpayers for Public Education; the trial court consolidated the two.

serving attempts to boost their own party’s voter rolls. Applause erupted from the audience when Rep. Tim Dore, R-Elizabeth, questioned the sponsors’ motives, telling committee members, “I don’t hear the outcry from voters.” “I’m trying to get my arms around why we’re doing this,” he said. The bill passed the Democratic-controlled committee on a 7-4 vote, on the heels of a hearing that lasted more than seven hours. Among those who testified was Jefferson County Clerk Pam Anderson, a Republican who is the president of the Colorado County Clerks Association, who said the bill puts “ballots in the hands of voters in a cost-effective manner.” “As a whole, over three quarters of (CCCA members) support this legislation as an important and timely policy that looks to the future,” Anderson said. Anderson also tried to alleviate the concerns that mailing ballots to every registered voter in the state would lead to greater voting fraud. She said the bill would provide “necessary security for the (voting) system” and that there really isn’t much fraud going on in Colorado elections to begin with. Several Republican officeholders oppose the bill, including El Paso County Clerk and Recorder Wayne Williams, who believes that same-day voter registration would make it impossible to catch those who try to cheat the system. “The more the people of the State of Colorado and El Paso County learn about this terrible piece of legislation, the more they don’t like it,” Williams said in a news release prior to the hearing. Republican Secretary of State Scott Gessler, who vehemently opposes the bill, called the legislation “flawed.” “This is an example of bad government,” he said. The bill now moves to the House Appropriations Committee.

Firefighter grateful for second chance Trivial things are set aside after near-death experience

‘I almost didn’t go home that day. I almost didn’t see my kids again. I’m not sure why or how it

By Chris Michlewicz

cmichlewicz@ourcoloradonews. com Firefighter Nick Gravina has performed hundreds of life-saving procedures on other people. He never expected to be on the receiving end. A 10-year veteran of the South Metro Fire Rescue Authority, Gravina has always been regarded as one of the more physically fit crew members. And he proved it the morning of May 14, 2012, by finishing a grueling annual fitness test in an impressive one Gravina minute, 48 seconds. A short time later, however, the 41-yearold felt pain in his chest. He initially chalked it up to indigestion and tried to take a nap. But the nagging pain prompted him to tell a co-worker. Shelly Davis, a South Metro firefighter for 14 years, remembers that Gravina’s color didn’t look quite right when he entered the workout room at station 47. Alarmed, she hooked him up to a LifePak heart monitor and defibrillator after getting a “weird feeling.” The monitor indicated that Gravina’s heart was not receiving enough oxygen, and as she placed additional patches on his chest to get a more accurate reading, Gravina collapsed. Lt. Steve Woodrick called an ambulance to the three-person station and began administering CPR. Davis, meanwhile, shocked Gravina and got no response. Minutes later, Gravina regained consciousness and was alert

happened. I just know I made it.’ Nick Gravina, firefighter and talking in the ambulance. But as the ambulance arrived at Parker Adventist Hospital, Gravina went into cardiac arrest again. The married father of two boys doesn’t remember being clinically dead for an hour. When all was said and done, Gravina had been shocked 18 times and undergone extensive CPR. His family and co-workers, not knowing whether he had suffered permanent brain damage, waited anxiously for days before Gravina woke up, seemingly unscathed with the exception of some fatigue and weight loss. Doctors removed a clot commonly known as the “widow maker” and placed a stent in his heart. Since then, Gravina has taken a considerable amount of time to think about what might have been. The “big reality check” changed his perspective on life. “I almost didn’t go home that day. I almost didn’t see my kids again,” said Gravina, who has lived in the Parker area for 15 years. “I’m not sure why or how it happened. I just know I made it.” Other than the chest pain immediately preceding his collapse, there were no warning signs. He doesn’t have high cholesterol or high blood pressure or a family history of heart troubles. Doctors believe the strenuous activity from the physical agility

test might have triggered the movement of the clot, but were unable to give Gravina a definitive explanation on a cause. He has spent the last year fearing that it could happen again, but mostly has tried to focus on making the most of his second chance, while improving his diet. Gravina admits to being “kind of embarrassed” by the whole ordeal, but words can’t express how happy his colleagues are that they were able to intervene in time. “It’s definitely an added stress when it’s someone you know, but being a medic for so long, I kind of went on autopilot,” said Davis, who spent 22 years as an emergency medical technician. “I’m glad I was there and was fortunate enough to be able to function without falling apart emotionally.” Davis says she still gets choked up when seeing Gravina around the firehouse, and couldn’t help but shed a few tears during an awards ceremony in early March. Gravina felt compelled to thank the South Metro crew members who helped save his life. “I did my best to tell them what it meant to me, what they did for me,” he said. Gravina says he no longer allows himself to dwell on trivial things and has made a point of spending more time with his family.

SHERIFF’S REPORT Undersheriff investigated

Douglas County deputies responded to a call of a reported dispute at the Highlands Ranch home of Undersheriff Tony Spurlock on April 10. The call, according to a news release by the sheriff’s office, was made by a passerby. Deputies conducted a criminal investigation and found no evidence of criminal conduct. “The undersheriff has cooperated fully with the investigation,” said Sgt. Ron Hanavan, spokesman for the department. “All of the initial indicators are that no misconduct has occurred and therefore he is not on administrative leave.” Sheriff David Weaver contacted the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office April 11 and requested an independent investigation. Mark Techmeyer, JCSO

public information officer, confirmed there was a routine Internal Affairs investigation underway, but would not release details of any of the potential charges that were being investigated. Spurlock, who chaired the state’s Domestic Violence Offender Treatment Board under Gov. Bill Owens in 2001, is running for sheriff in Douglas County in 2014.

Sanctuary falls victim twice

Two incidents were reported at The Sanctuary Center at the corner of Wolfensberger Road and Colorado 105 in Castle Rock, including a vehicle trespass March 29 and a burglary March 21. The burglary involved donation money being stolen by someone who had chiseled through the lock of the metal gate out front

and opened up donation envelopes that had been placed in the drop box.

Missing ring spurs questions

A woman reported her wedding ring stolen on April 5 from her residence in the 8400 block of Sunflower Street in Highlands Ranch. She had taken her ring off, along with some other jewelry, and left it sitting on the counter of a bathroom while carpet was being installed March 28. Upon completion of the installation she noticed the ring missing, but the other jewelry remained. She could not reach the installers until April 1 and believes one of them had stolen it. Once reached they denied taking it, and her family has not seen it anywhere. The ring is valued at $1,700.

Slaying may derail bail-bond measure Death of corrections chief ‘For them to say that’s on us, they either don’t recognize could be game-changer that they’re in the majority, or they have other issues

By Vic Vela

vvela@ourcoloradonews.com Circumstances surrounding the recent slaying of Colorado’s prisons chief are causing Republican state lawmakers to have second thoughts on a bill that seeks to change how bail bond violators are punished. House Bill 1242, a Democratic-sponsored bill that would repeal the mandatory sentencing structure of bail bond violations, had GOP support just last month. That was then. This is now. The bill’s fate is up in the air now that Republicans — some of whom voted for the legislation following a recent legislative committee hearing — are voicing opposition to the measure, causing Democratic leadership to yank the bill from being voted on last week. The bill, which is being sponsored by Rep. Brittany Pettersen, D-Lakewood, would give judges and prosecutors discretion in how they punish people who violate their release conditions while they are out on bond for a criminal charge. Currently, if a person violates conditions of bond for any reason — be it for the commission of a new crime or simply arriving late to a court hearing — he or she faces a mandatory one-year jail term, if their underlying charge is a felony.

on their side.’ State Rep. Frank McNulty, R-Highlands Ranch A bail bond violation for an underlying misdemeanor offense carries with it a mandatory six-month jail sentence. Pettersen believes that not all bond violations should carry equal punishment. “The bill leaves it up to judicial discretion to look at the circumstance, versus having a mandatory sentence,” Pettersen recently told Colorado Community Media. “If it’s somebody who can’t make it to court, versus somebody looking to flee, the judge can take that into account.”

Slaying casts shadow

The bill passed the House Judiciary Committee on a 10-0 bipartisan vote, following a March 26 hearing. It then passed the Appropriations Committee on April 9. But Republicans now cite parole-related missteps involving the man who allegedly murdered Department of Corrections Director Tom Clements last month, as a key reason behind their change of heart. Clements was killed in his Monument home on March 19, allegedly by Evan Ebel

County cleans up at economic awards Growth, innovation lead to honors By Ryan Boldrey

rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com Douglas County continues to make noise on the economic front, pulling in three top awards at the Economic Development Council of Colorado annual awards banquet. County Commissioner Jill Repella was named volunteer of the year; Amy Sherman, president of the Northwest Douglas County Economic Development Corporation, took home rookie of the year honors; and Arapahoe/Douglas Works! picked up the partner of the year award for its innovative work. The volunteer award that Repella picked up April 4 in Colorado Springs is the only award that an elected official is eligible for. “Jill has a very pro-busiSherman ness attitude,” said John Cody, EDCC chairman. “She was recognized specifically for her role in economic development, as well as her fundamental belief in the role of government to facilitate and foster a fertile business environment and her contribution to the passage of the Colorado Jobs Act last year.” Repella said the real award to her was people getting back to work in Douglas County. “Six thousand, three hundred new jobs were brought into Douglas County’s jurisdiction in the past year and about 3,500 of those were brand new jobs,” she said. “From my perspective that’s 3,500 families that were able to provide for themselves … I only hope that trend continues.” Sherman, who founded the NDCEDC in November 2011, was honored for bring-

ing in 25 new investors in the organization’s first year, including Douglas County, Sterling Ranch, Wind Crest, The Highlands Ranch Community Association, IREA, First Bank and numerous other heavyweights from the region. “Northwest Douglas County is primed for some really great future development,” Sherman said. “This is really a big piece of it, and with Sterling Ranch in our future and Highlands Ranch being a great, established suburban community creating more jobs all the time, we have some great focus on us right now that is needed.” Sherman also serves on the board of directors for the Roxborough Business Association and on the nearby Lamb Spring Archaeological Preserve. “To somewhat change professions and start a brand-new organization while contributing significantly toward economic development efforts, representing not only her region, we thought Amy was well-deserving of the award,” Cody said. Cody said the Arapahoe/Douglas Works! award was really reflective of years of exemplary work in connecting a skilled workforce with employers and more. “They’ve done some cutting-edge things to help make the Colorado economy successful,” he said. This past year, ADW helped the Denver South Economic Development Partnership with site selection data that resulted in location and expansion of Arrow Electronics, Redwood Trust and Charles Schwab. They also helped with staffing for Connextions, TriZetto, Blockbuster, Kaiser Permanente and Gordon Composites, to name a few. “I think it is an affirmation of the work my staff does in realizing both the supply side and the demand side of the economy,” said Joe Barela, regional director for ADW. “In this environment, the worst thing you can do is not to be connected. We bring people together to make sure there is a good match.”

— who died in a shootout with authorities in Texas days after Clements’ death. Ebel, who had a long criminal history, was out on parole at the time of the killing. But it turned out that he had removed his ankle monitoring device while on parole, and that DOC did not become aware of the tampering until days after the fact. Though Pettersen’s bill has nothing to do with DOC monitoring, Republicans see the legislation as akin to having more criminals on the streets, when they don’t have to be. “I suspect there is an increased focus on these types of issues and these types of bills since we learned of the various failings in the DOC system, with regard to the Clements murder,” said Rep. Frank McNulty, R-Highlands Ranch. “And I do think that, for a lot of members, that did change their perspective.” Each of the four Republican House members who voted for the bill in committee are now either expressing concerns

about the bill, or plan to change their votes: Polly Lawrence of Littleton, Bob Gardner of Colorado Springs, Jared Wright of Fruita and Carole Murray of Castle Rock. But Pettersen points out that Clements’ death occurred before the March 26 committee hearing, and that her bill has nothing to do with allowing criminals to get a free walk whenever they violate their bail conditions. “That doesn’t mean that we don’t expect everyone to be in court when they’re supposed to be,” she said. “You can still do the max. It doesn’t take that option away.” House Majority Leader Dickey Lee Hullinghorst, D-Gunbarrel, said she still hopes to get the bill through, in spite of what she thinks are Republican behind-the-scenes games aimed at killing the legislation. “We’re having some difficulty on the (House) floor, which we’re having a hard time figuring out,” she said of Republican opposition. “Maybe its gotcha, I don’t know. I hope that after all the tomfoolery we’ll be able to pass a good bill.” But McNulty said Democrats should look at themselves in the mirror to find out why the bill is being stalled. “For them to say that’s on us, they either don’t recognize that they’re in the majority, or they have other issues on their side that they’re using as an excuse as they try to get out of it,” he said. The bill had yet to be voted on by press time on April 15.

Charge against filmmaker dropped Man was removed from school board meeting By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com Douglas County prosecutors on April 11 dropped a charge levied against filmmaker Brian Malone for alleged disruption of an August 2012 Douglas County School Board meeting. Prosecutors dropped the charges before the court could rule on a motion to dismiss the case. The dismissal request was filed by American Civil Liberties Union attorneys earlier in the week, according to a press release from the ACLU. “This decision reinforces that access to public meetings for the media and general public is a fundamental right that should never be criminalized,” said ACLU of Colorado Legal Director Mark Silverstein. DCSD spokeswoman Cinamon Watson issued an emailed statement. “We count transparency as one of our highest priorities and have taken significant steps to engage the community in the district,” it read. “Guidelines for camera equipment are in place to avoid disruptions, prevent obstructed views for citizens wishing to attend board meetings, and to maintain safety and security for all those in

attendance.” The ACLU agreed to represent Malone after the Aug. 7, 2012, meeting during which the filmmaker stepped outside a taped-off section of the Douglas County School Board meeting room reserved for those who were videotaping. He was removed from the meeting, banned from school property and charged with a misdemeanor of “disrupting a lawful assembly.” In the wake of a legal threat from the ACLU, the school district later lifted its order banning Malone from board meetings. Malone’s attorneys maintain his conduct didn’t cause a significant disruption, and that DCSD’s restrictions were “overbroad and unjustified based on First Amendment-protected conduct,” according to their release. “Brian is a filmmaker whose only goal was to capture the dealings of a publicly elected body so that they could be better known by the public,” said attorney Daniel Recht. “They had no right to remove him and definitely no right to charge him with a crime.” Malone, a Douglas County native whose children attend DCSD schools, is a documentary filmmaker. He said he’s moving forward with production of a film about the current school board and issues within the district.

“We’re in the editing process right now,” he said. “I have over a hundred hours of footage.” That footage doesn’t include interviews with any of the school board members. Malone said his repeated requests to meet with them, Superintendent Elizabeth Fagen and DCSD spokeswoman Watson were denied. Watson said the district chose not to participate in the film. “The film is just an examination of the struggle between opposing viewpoints of different forces in the community over which direction the school district is going,” Malone said. “I’m not really passing judgment on any viewpoint. I’m merely presenting the facts as I observe them. I feel they need to be reported.” He aims to release it this summer, but doesn’t yet know how it will be distributed.

d Plan for fire aircraft clears first committee $25 million price tag not easy to swallow By Vic Vela

vvela@ourcoloradonews.com A bill that could lead to the creation of an aerial firefighting fleet in Colorado has cleared its first legislative hurdle. The Colorado Firefighting Air Corps would form under state Senate Bill 245, a bold undertaking that carries with it a price tag of about $25 million. The bill’s sponsors say the fleet is needed in an effort to combat wildfires that continue to wreak havoc across the state. Last year alone, six lives were lost and more than 600 homes were destroyed during a particularly

devastating fire season. The bill passed the Senate’s Agriculture, Natural Resources and Energy Committee on April 11 with unanimous support. But it will be up to the Appropriations Committee to determine funding. Alex Schatz, a Legislative Council staffer, pulled no punches about the cost of the bill when he testified before the committee. “The fiscal note is a piece of work,” Schatz said. “It’s a big fiscal note.” The bill’s cost takes into account the purchase and associated costs of firefighting aircraft, such as large air tankers, singleengine air tankers, tactical planes and helicopters. Some of the costs could be mitigated through federal reimbursement and grants.

The bill’s sponsors — Sen. Cheri Jahn, D-Wheat Ridge, and Sen. Steve King, RGrand Junction — also said the fleet could lead to new economic opportunities in the state. Jahn acknowledged to committee members that the bill’s cost “may make your eyes pop out,” but that it’s worth it. She said that “it’s not a matter of if, it’s a matter of when” Colorado is hit with another devastating wildfire season. “This could very well be a more significant season for fire than last year,” Jahn said. King told the committee that the federal government cannot be counted on to come to the aid of every state that is ablaze during wildfire season. He told members that there are only nine federal air tankers avail-

able to service “a very water-starved United States.” Sen. Ted Harvey, R-Highlands Ranch, agreed with King, saying the lack of federal resources “have left us with no other alternative” than for the state to put in place its own fleet. The bill passed the Democratic-controlled committee following a 5-0 vote. Jahn told Colorado Community Media after the hearing that she’s has had conversations with members of the Appropriations Committee and she feels good about the bill’s funding chances. “I don’t know if we’ll get all of it,” Jahn said. “But there’s enough interest to begin an honest discussion, and to look for pockets of money to get this started.”

Parker news in a hurry Twenty-six high school seniors in the Parker area paid tribute to their teachers one last time before they graduate. High school principals and teachers were invited to dinner with the students at the annual Teacher Appreciation Banquet at Chaparral High School on April 9. The students spotlighted each teacher and told attendees how they made a difference in their lives. The banquets are a yearly dinner sponsored by the youth of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Parker. Similar banquets are held throughout Colorado.

exclusive use through May 1, at which point federal resources are available. Those resources remain available through Oct. 1. The problem with relying on federal resources, Johnson explained, is that they are extremely limited, and Colorado is just one of the states that receive money allocated for the Rocky Mountain Region. “If our fires are not high enough on the priority list some of those resources may not be available to us,” he said. Last year, for instance, with federal money coming into the state already to assist with Waldo Canyon and High Park, a Douglas fire the equivalent of the 2011 Burning Tree blaze might not have even drawn assistance from the feds. And if Rampart was

Elrod, 38, is particularly enthused about “Home Run,” which he says is about “believing in yourself” and discovering ways to change from within. Elrod’s mother, Victoria Buckingham, who now lives east of Parker, is probably his biggest fan. Still referring to her son as “Scotty,” she marvels at his go-get-’em determination and ability to establish a foothold in every industry he chooses. The fact that her boy is now a movie star is hard to fathom, but it gets “a little more real” every time she sees his face on the silver screen. “This is my little guy all grown up. He shows so many different emotions in this movie,” said Buckingham, who attended

SUV for a cause

Cancer League of Colorado, an allvolunteer organization formed for the eradication of cancer, is getting ready to raffle off a car for a good cause. Every penny received through CLC’s endeavors goes directly into cancer research in Colorado. Every year, “Dealin’ Doug” Moreland, who lost a sister to the disease, provides CLC with a car to raffle off for research funds. This year’s vehicle is a 2013 red four-door Dodge Durango Crew AWD, valued at $47,620. Only 5,000 tickets are printed, and are available for a donation of $20 each or six for $100 donation, a prime chance for winners. The vehicle will be on display in front of Stroh Ranch King Soopers from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. April 20-21. The drawing will be on May 4. Parker resident Jeanene “JC” Childers has sold four winning tickets and says she is overdue for a fifth. Her first winner, a cancer survivor and retired fellow Realtor, is still driving his winner: a 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo. Call Childers at 303-840-4696 or 303-475-3015 for tickets.

somewhere else under contract, the county may have been left without aerial support. “It’s kind of like an insurance policy,” Johnson said. “With the increased fire danger and increase in intense fires that we’ve seen the last few years, we looked at this and said, `We really need to have something to help us through the periods when we know our federal partners are not available.’ We want to be able to immediately react.” As a bipartisan bill works its way through the state Senate to provide Colorado with its own aerial fleet, Johnson says he is excited about the possibility, but that Douglas County needs to be proactive to make sure it is covered regardless of what happens with the Legislature. “We’ve needed more resources here in Colorado for a long time,” he said. “I think this bill is a good step forward. The fact it is being talked about is a very positive thing.”

the “Home Run” premiere two weeks ago. “I didn’t have a Kleenex with me and I needed one. I was pinching myself thinking, `this is just incredible, awesome, it’s so surreal.’” Elrod’s future was shaped by his upbringing. He was inspired by the 1980s Tom Cruise fighter-pilot flick, “Top Gun.” He also played baseball for Ponderosa, although he brushed up on his technique before shooting “Home Run” in Oklahoma. Mostly, he left school early each day as part of a work program that enabled him to help lay the runways at Denver International Airport. He also remembers being chased by the cops as he tore around on his dirt bike in the not-yet-developed areas of the Pinery. Despite a hectic schedule, Elrod still comes back to Parker every few months. His big focus, however, is on the bright lights of Hollywood, and he hopes to follow in the footsteps of industry heavyweights like Paul Newman and George Clooney.

Smoker reported stolen

About 7:20 a.m. April 9, the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office responded to the 16100 block of Parkside Drive in Stonegate on a report of a theft. The deputy spoke to the victim, who said his “Big Green Egg” barbecue smoker unit had been stolen from his back deck. He went out to the deck and saw that the stand for the smoker was just outside of his fence and the smoker was gone. An orange construction fence had been pushed down to the ground behind his fence. The homeowner did not hear or see anything overnight and suggested there had to be at least two people involved because the smoker weighs around 200 pounds. The gate to his fence does not have a lock. The victim said the smoker costs $828. The victim suspected construction

workers who were doing a large job in the open space behind his house, but the case was deactivated because the sheriff’s office had no suspects or leads.

Man facing tax charge

The U.S. Attorney’s office announced the prosecution of a Parker man for failing to file income tax returns. Richard K. Sears, 64, was formally charged April 12 with three counts of willfully failing to file U.S. individual income tax returns, said U.S. Attorney John Walsh and IRS Criminal Investigation Special Agent in Charge Stephen Boyd. The offense carries a penalty of not more than one year in prison and a fine of up to $100,000 per count. “Tax evasion is not a victimless crime; we all pay when others attempt to defraud the government,” Boyd said.

opinions / yours and ours

Even a growth industry must have borders The work of both a task force and a committee is done, and now the business of drawing up rules to implement Amendment 64 is in the hands of the Colorado General Assembly. With less than a month left in the 2013 session, the Legislature will need to hustle on the matter of recreational marijuana. As lawmakers debate the merits of the recommendations they’ve been handed, one issue that will come up is how to deal with pot tourism. Already, a company promising cannabis-related vacations has sprouted in Denver, with April 20 — also known endearingly by many marijuanasmokers as “4/20” — being its first big push. It seems unlikely the Legislature would

our view altogether ban out-of-state folks from purchasing pot. Doing so would be against the advice of the Amendment 64 Task Force and would cost the state a potentially large source of revenue. But there could be limits imposed, perhaps below the threshold of those facing residents, on how much marijuana visitors could legally procure. And, certainly, the law would require them to smoke or otherwise partake here in the Centennial State.

question of the week

How would you grade the Legislature? As the 2013 session nears an end, we asked people at several south-metro area

“I don’t really keep up with politics all that much, but overall I’d give them an F with the exception of one area, and that’s the medical marijuana issue. In that case, I’d give them an A.” — Duaine Miller, Aurora “I give them a solid B. So far, so good. I don’t follow politics all that much, but I think people in other states probably have it worse. Seems everybody here is pretty content, and that makes me happy.” — Brandon Alder, Centennial

locations what overall grade they would give to the Colorado Legislature and why.

Amid myriad gray areas, at least one thing is black and white: What’s smoked in Colorado must stay in Colorado. We’re not endorsing use of marijuana in any way, but if you choose to use, remember that you are breaking the law if you take it outside state lines. Kansas, for one, has been a nervous neighbor since Amendment 64’s passage in November. Last month, Kansas’ appeals court ruled it is illegal to possess pot even if it was legally purchased in another state. (For that matter, possession is still in violation of federal law, but that’s a larger matter for another day.) Earlier this month, a Colorado woman was arrested in Salina, Kan., on charges of marijuana possession. She had nearly 4

pounds of pot, police say. While that amount would have been against the law even in Colorado — where residents may legally possess up to 1 ounce for recreational purposes or up to 2 ounces for medicinal reasons — it does shine a light on a problem. A commander with a Kansas drug task force told reporters Colorado pot is increasingly becoming a concern in his state. Like it or not, Colorado may be well on its way to becoming known as a destination spot for pot enthusiasts. But developing a reputation among neighboring states as a source of contraband is unacceptable. Our state’s legislators, law enforcement agencies and residents should work to nip this problem in the bud.

Both political parties can agree on energy efficiency

With all the partisanship in Washington, D.C., it’s hard to feel optimistic that Democrats and Republicans will be able to come together on much. There is, however, a bright spot when it comes to the issue of energy efficiency, and I believe that progress can be made on both sides of the aisle. The United States is the second largest energy consumer in the world (China is the first), and our demand only continues to grow. While more production is one way to “I would give them a B-minus. meet this demand, we must also look at the consumption side and ask ourselves this: They seem to be doing a good Are we being as efficient as possible? job of pushing buttons on all Energy efficiency is not a headline grabthe hot topics.

letter to the editor

That’s my story, and I’m a stick in the mud My therapist and I have been talking about dancing. Just not with each other. We’re trying to figure out why I have no interest in dancing or dance. I won’t do “The Loco-Motion” or “The Mashed Potato.” I don’t watch dancing, either. Ballet, ballroom, belly, pole, line, none of it. Torture would be watching “Dancing with the Stars.” Extreme torture would be watching “Lord of the Dance.” I don’t even like the Soupy Shuffle. A friend of mine sent me a YouTube of some fellow who had spliced together snippets of him doing the same appalling jig in locations around the world. She wasn’t happy when I said it was absolutely dreadful So far, all my therapist and I have been able to come up with is that I may have had a profoundly adverse reaction to glimpsing Arthur Murray when I was a boy. He always had a disturbing smile on his face, like a carousel horse. I don’t imagine there is anyone else anywhere who feels the same way about dancing as I do. I prefer to be largely inert. Keep the foxtrot away from me. No Native American dances, please. Hulas? No, no, no. Even the Ice Capades gives me the willies. Everyone else either loves to dance, watch dancing, or both. I don’t know what happened with me. My guess is that Boo Radley didn’t dance either, and that’s how I saw myself when I was in high school and college. That perception has changed, but I am still very reclusive, and I think I always will be. My drinking years didn’t loosen me up either. Well. They loosened me up to other things, but not moving and grooving. I don’t listen to dance music. Maybe

that’s a part of it. I listen to Beethoven and Mozart. There may have been some dancing going on in “Amadeus.” I can’t remember. But dancing to Sinfonia Concertante would never cross my mind. Painting to it would. Perhaps painting is how I dance. The canvas is my partner? Maybe that’s a stretch and maybe not. I have done a lot of painting demonstrations, and they’re about as publicly overt as I get. I might feel very differently if I were musical. I am not. Or if I had been encouraged at an early age to dance around the house or around the school. I wasn’t. I have no regrets. I admire Fred and Ginger and Baryshnikov, but if I had to choose between being a very good painter and being a very good dancer, it would be a very good painter. My dancing abstinence has not made me very attractive to many people (women!), so when I find one (I have) for whom it is A-OK, I value them. I am sure that most — or all — modern dance performances are choreographed, but the few I have seen pieces of look improvised. That would be the end of me. I was roped into seeing one some years ago, and my friend spent most of her segment, backlighted, under a lavender, translucent gauzy tent, so all I could see was her silhouette, kind of flailing around for 15 Smith continues on Page 11

Thanks to Weaver for stand on guns

I would like to thank Douglas County Sheriff David Weaver for his recent open letter opposing the current anti-gun legislative atmosphere in Colorado. Thanks, Sheriff Weaver, for taking a stand against the enveloping tyrannical police state which is infecting our country and state right now. The U.S. Senate is now trying to implement required gun registration for all future gun sales. We know that previous gun sales in which background checks have been performed have had the data mined by the feds and stored in a database for future use against law-abiding citizens. This is a legitimate concern for all that our government is moving to undermine our Constitution. This new legislation simply provides

Parker Chronicle

the justification for future confiscation of so-called “assault weapons.” Make no mistake, this is all about registering and then confiscating weapons from veterans first and then non-veterans in turn to make sure that the slaves are obedient to the New World Order. Wake up America, this is the end game of the enslavement of our country. Freedom is waning and if we the people don’t wake up to the enveloping tyranny we will be enslaved and everything we hold dear like property and religious freedom are in the cross hairs of the banker-backed NWO minions! The end is not near, it is here and now! Wake up as the hour is late! Dan Mason Kiowa

s Becoming a minimalist is a challenge

Have you ever considered yourself to be a minimalist in any area of your life? Becoming a minimalist takes n ere work and needs to be done in modunceeration, at least for me. nces For the past few years I have started the slow migration to becoming a a minimalist. I have gone from carrying newspapers, magazines, books and a a small Bible with me in my briefcase wherever I went, to downloading all on of my reading materials onto an ea- reader, and now have made the move op- to an iPad where I can store and acates cess more from the cloud, including ble. my music, notes, contacts, and all of ent my reading materials. The problem that I have is this: I nip really miss my “real books.” You know, the hardcover kind, the paperbacks and even the magazines. I do enjoy the simplicity of downloading a book or magazine, but I really miss the time I would spend in the bookstore. The bookstore for me was one of my favorite places, my sanctuary. I could spend hours browsing, reading, and getting lost in a book. I even enjoyed the smell of the books, and there is nothing like being in a place with thousands of new books. Here is the other problem I encountered while attempting to become a minimalist: too much access to too many things and too much information all in one location. Maybe it’s my lack of focus, but I am literally a less productive reader than when I was reading just one book at a time. So many people know that I am a vocus g in try y

n cy

racious reader and recommend books for me to read. So I research the book, and if it sounds interesting I download it. Before I know it, I have left one book and moved on to another before finishing the first one. I convince myself that I will be back to finish the previous book, but it never happens. As a matter of fact, it only got worse. More people refer more books and I lose my self-control and download more books. The cycle repeats itself and I end up where I am today, partially through a halfdozen books. If I am to become a true minimalist when traveling, I have to discipline myself and limit myself to one active book at a time. I wish that was the only challenge I had. You see, I read a lot of reference, business, faith-based and history books. I like to write notes in the margins and highlight and underscore the text. I know I can do that on my e-reader or iPad, but nowhere near as fast and as efficiently as I can with my pen and highlighters. Lastly, as I sit in my office and make calls, write proposals, write columns and coach clients, I can look

owned and operated by the federal government, and by making government buildings more energy efficient we can save taxpayer dollars and boost the construction and energy sectors of our economy. One of the ways we propose to do this is by better utilizing Energy Savings Performance Contracts (ESPCs) and Utility Energy Service Contracts (UESCs). These contracts allow a private company to perform energy upgrades on federal buildings. The private company assumes all the costs and risks associated with the

upgrade, and the federal government shares the monetary savings with them once the project is complete. It is estimated a typical $10 million ESPC creates 100 well-paying privatesector jobs, and federal buildings benefit from more energy-efficient makeovers. Everybody involved wins, and Republicans and Democrats alike can take pride in having accomplished something that benefits our economy and our environment. Unfortunately (and not surprisingly), the federal government has been slow to take advantage of these energy saving contracts. In 2011, President Obama urged federal department and agency heads to enter into significantly more contracts by the end of 2013. This is where mem-

bers of Congress can come together and help move the process along. Our Energy Savings Performance Caucus has already made strides in getting executive branch departments to evaluate their own facilities and identify potential savings through ESPCs and performance contracts that promote energy efficiency at the federal, state, and local level. Yet, more needs to be done and the time to act is now. It is time to show the American people that Congress can work together on something, and I believe there is a real opportunity to use energy efficiency as a positive step forward.

at my bookshelf and see all the titles right in front of me in one location. My eyes can scan my shelves while talking on the phone and I can immediately pull a book off the shelf and look for the dog-eared pages or stickynote tabs and find what I am looking for right at that moment of need. When I thought about boxing up all of my books and when I imagined the empty shelves with a lone e-reader or iPad, I knew I had to find a happy medium and that going “all-in” with a digital solution was not the answer for me. So I am back to the bookstore, back to carrying one book with me in my bag, enjoying the feel of the book, the smell of the ink (It’s almost like that new-car smell, you know what I mean?), and the sound as I turn each page. And I also carry my iPad where I keep just a couple of active materials. I downloaded an awesome reference Bible and I use my reader for the magazines I enjoy and need to keep up with trends in my industry. How about you — are you a virtual reader or do you enjoy reading a book you can touch and feel? If you have mastered the minimalist challenge when it comes to reading, I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com. I wish you all a better than good week.

All about aeriﬁcation By Tony Koski, CSU Extension Turf Specialist

A few thoughts on lawn aerification (core cultivation) from now through the fall. If lawns aren’t being regularly watered (as is the case in many communities), the lawns will likely be so hard that aerification will not be terribly effective. That is, plugs will not likely be pulled from such hard lawns without the benefit of a good soaking rain or a couple of days of intensive irrigation. Lawns that are stressed due to some of the more extreme watering restrictions will not likely benefit from fall aerification (or earlier “beat the fall rush” aerification being promoted by some companies right now). These stressed lawns may actually suffer additional stress (traffic stress from the equipment, increased drying because of open holes). Aerification holes will promote drying of the soil if they do not heal over quick-

enough to get good penetration/plug pulling would probably benefit because they are growing “normally” (new roots will form, holes will heal over). So, lawns that do not appear to be under stress and are irrigated regularly enough to allow effective pulling of cores can benefit from fall aerification. Where watering restrictions have resulted in stressed lawns and hard soil, aerification may not be effective and may actually cause more harm than good.

How to keep your land pest-free By StatePoint

Spending time outdoors can recharge the soul and bring the family together. In your own backyard you can fi nd beauty, enjoyment and a place to connect with nature — so long as you make sure to maintain all those beautiful trees and plants. Whether you have a garden, woodlands or natural landscaping on your property, you’ll want to keep your land healthy and free of unwanted pests. And experts say that woodlands need special attention. “Although trees look strong, woodland ecosystems are particularly vulnerable to natural and man-made dangers that can gradually reduce the health and beauty of your woods,” says Mike Burns, forester and program resource manager with the American Forest Foundation. A U.S. Forest Service assessment released last December predicts that as many as 34 million acres of forest land could be lost in the United States during the next 50 years, and that all regions in the Unittereded States will experience increased stress ssed,from natural disasters and pest infestawilltions. ying Luckily, there are steps landowners can ed attake to help keep trees and woodlands safe d (es-from pests: pro- • Keep an eye out for changes. On trees, thisspots of yellow or brown or some thinning fact,needles might be the effects of natural ndis-shading on lower limbs — or it might be a aeri-disease or insect that’s about to spread to other trees. ered • Stay informed about threats in your

area. Contact your state forestry agency or state department of natural resources to find out what’s bugging your area. • Monitor for pests and signs of disease every month or two. Check trees on the trunk, limbs, twigs, under peeling bark and leaves — the most likely places to find injuries. Keep your eye open for things that look out of the ordinary. • Online resources can help you become a better steward of your land. If you own some woodlands, consider signing up for the My Land Plan resource, launched by the American Forest Foundation. My Land Plan can help you connect with upto-date information about pest threats, map your land’s boundaries and record changes over time, all at www.MyLandPlan.org. You can explore the website’s newly expanded invasive pest and pathogen section and locate professional services available for your needs. • If you suspect an outbreak, collect samples of tree damage and any associated pests to accurately identify the problem, which may have more than one cause. Take pictures and notes on your trees’ symptoms. Often pictures are enough for an expert to identify the problem and help you figure out what to do next. Next steps can be identified by your state forestry agency or department of natural resources. • If you discover an insect that you suspect might be a danger to your trees, seal it in a container and store it in the freezer until you can deliver it to a proper authority.

I was born in Omaha, NE How long have you lived in the area? Since 1999 What do you like most about it? The people – It seems like Colorado has so many blue ski days that the people here are happy, fun and exciting to be around. I have really been blessed with fabulous clients and friends. How long have you worked in Real Estate? I got my real estate license in 2003 as a hobby because I have always enjoyed real estate and architecture. When I was 16 and got my driver’s license, I would go to open houses for fun. That turned into a full time career and I’m still going to open houses for fun! What is your specialty and what does that mean for the people you work with? I specialize in getting sellers top dollar for their

Knowing when to stop working – I could work, work, and completely forget about time. What do you most enjoy doing when you’re not working? I enjoy travelling with my family. My favorite places usually have a sandy beach & beautiful water. What is one tip you have for someone looking to sell a house? My sellers get about 10 to 20% over current market value. The key is to go on the market strong. This means uncluttered, staged and clean. Going on the market pre prepared and putting your best foot forward gets sellers TOP DOLLAR. What is one tip you have for someone looking to buy a house? Take advantage of the low interest rates and still very low prices because we are at the threshold of an increase in market prices. This is the perfect time to move up. Homes under $400,000 are increasing but the homes with prices over $500,000 haven’t increased too much. Savvy buyers can take advantage of the shifting market at its threshold. What is the most unusual thing you’ve encountered while working in Real Estate? Oddly, I locked myself inside a home I was previewing. I was forced to exit through the back door and ended up climbing a 6-foot privacy fence in heels and a suit because the fence had no gate! I am sure the neighbors thought I was crazy as I jumped over the fence in a snowdrift.

Randy Spierings, CPA, MBA

Branch Manager, Mortgage Lender

LMB# 100022405 NMLS# 217152 Primary Residential Mortgage, Inc. Office: 303-256-5748 www.BestColoradoMortgages.com rspierings@primeres.com Regulated by Division of Real Estate Has been a CPA for over 30 years

: With housing at skyhigh affordability are lenders still lending? Can I get a loan with the new stricter lending standards that are out there today? Are there low down payment programs still available? : You are correct that lending standards have changed dramatically in the last few years as banks and lenders have gone from very loose standards, particularly on subprime loans in the 2000s, to stricter standards today. Verification of ability to repay and assets for downpayment (and sometimes reserves), are now required as the stated income/ stated asset or no income/no asset loans no longer exist. Waiting periods after bank-

ruptcies, loan modifications, short sales, and foreclosures have all been extended – but loans are still available, even for people that have had those credit blemishes. As for low down payment programs, many counties, as well as CHAFA, offer down payment assistance programs, although most of those come with income or asset qualifiers. Additionally, grant programs with income qualifiers reduce down payment requirements to around $1000. The VA loan program, for veterans, offers a no downpayment program, and VA fees can be waived for those with disabilities. FHA offers a program with only 3.5 percent of the purchase price as a downpayment. The USDA program also offers a zero down program in certain rural areas. Finally, conventional loans are available with as little as 5 percent down. If you’re looking to purchase or refinance, seek out an experienced, trustworthy, financially savvy lender, that you can meet face to face,

who has access to the full spectrum of loan and grant programs. Then work with them to select the proper loan and grant programs and have them customize them to best suit your needs. For more information on how you can purchase or refinance a home, please

contact our lending expert, Randy Spierings, CPA (over 30 years), NMLS #217152, branch manager for Primary Residential Mortgage, Inc., a local lender you can trust, at 303-256-5748 or rspierings@primeres.com. www. BestColoradoMortgages. com Regulated by the Divi-

guarantee and will give you $500 at closing if they don’t meet or exceed your expectations. They offer a full loan spectrum, including VA, FHA, USDA, Jumbo, and conventional, among others, and are among the top 10 retail FHA lenders in the U. S. today. n

laugh lady pitches pilot

Centennial resident Ann Stong flips through the well-worn pages of a 19th-century family Bible that she never knew existed. Hundreds of miles away, a total stranger spotted it on the auction block and tracked her down. Stong and her family drove to Arizona to bid on the piece that would eventually reconnect her with multiple generations of her family history. Photos by Deborah Grigsby

1864 Bible back with family By Deborah Grigsby

“one family’s BiBle story”

dgrigsby@ourcoloradonews. com When Ann Stong received an email from Mary Marsh last September, she almost deleted it. “I usually don’t open emails from strangers, but this one was different,” she said. “I had to open it.” More than 1,500 miles away, Arizona resident Mary Marsh had stopped by a local antique mall in hopes of finding a barrister’s case for her husband. “I saw this Bible and thought, `Wow, what a find for someone,’” said Marsh from her home near Scottsdale, Ariz. Printed in Philadelphia in 1864, the Bible’s worn calf leather cover and ornate brass lock held the key to many missing pieces in someone’s life, thought Marsh. “That afternoon, I just couldn’t get that book out of my head — in fact, I dreamed about it that night,” she said. “I didn’t dream about all the bookcases I had seen, I dreamed about the Bible.” Compelled to find the owner, Marsh spent hours entering some of the names she had seen in the Bible into several online search engines. “It was like there were angels on my shoulder telling me I had to do this,” she said. Marsh eventually connected some of the names with Stong, a Centennial resident. “So, I sent her an email with

Ann Stong will give a presentation on genealogy, her family Bible and mementos that came with it • April 15, 1:30-2:30 p.m. • Holly Creek Retirement Community • 5500 E. Peakview Ave., Centennial For more information, call 720-266-5611

Nearly 150 years old, Ann Stong’s family Bible was rescued from an Arizona auction block by a total stranger. Even with its weathered leather cover, the book’s pages are still in good condition, with legible hand-written entries, along with historic tintype photos of her ancestors. a link to the item and to the auction information,” she said. Stong, an avid amateur genealogist whose family often teases her abut spending more time with her dead relatives than she does with those still living, was delighted. “I emailed her right back,” said Stong. “When I saw her photos of the Bible and inscriptions, I immediately recognized the names and the handwriting from documents I have in my own collection.” The two exchanged several emails and Stong decided she would make the 1,500-mile trip to Avondale, Ariz. to attend the auction. Marsh was stunned. “I thought, `Oh my, gosh, I

smo

better be right,” she said. The morning of the auction came. Bidding for the Bible began at $30. Another bidder offered $40. “My heart just stopped,” said Stong. “I had no idea what I’d do if I couldn’t have that Bible.” Stong’s daughter countered with $50. The auctioneer stopped the auction, pointed to Stong and exclaimed, “Sold!” Before a stunned audience, the auctioneer offered an explanation, telling Stong’s story. But there was one more twist. The auction house offered to pay the consignment and give Stong the Bible as a gift.

The crowd erupted in joy and Stong was overcome with emotion. “I cried,” said Stong. “I was just dissolved in tears.” Stong returned to Colorado with the book. “The binding was in pretty bad shape and I had to ask people to stop handling it.” With the help of a local bookbinder, the Bible’s saddle stitching has now been replaced and new pages added for future entries. Marsh said the experience of connecting Stong with her Bible has inspired her. “Including Ann’s, I’ve now reconnected five families with Bibles set for auction,” she said. “I hope to encourage others to do the same when they see these kinds of items at sales or antique malls — it would be a shame to see so much family history wind up as decoupage on someone’s wall.” Stong said although her newfound heirloom has answered many of her questions, she still plans to keep digging into the lives of her ancestors. “I’m not through being nosy, just yet …” she said.

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

Wende Curtis, owner of Comedy Works in LoDo and south in the Landmark development, is peddling a six-minute “sizzle reel” for a reality TV series about her crazy Comedy Works world. “The working title is called `Comedy Works’,” said Curtis, who wouldn’t divulge where or to whom she’s pitching the pilot project. “The principal characters are me, Lucy (her four-legged child), Jeff, our GM of the south club, and an assistant who is a sexy little 20-something who wants to break into comedy. “There are a few more (characters) slated to be introduced early on, but there’s only so much to get across in six minutes! We’ve gotten some strong feedback from the business; now let’s see if we can sell it.” Curtis said her motivation for exploring the reality TV possibilities was primarily financial. “Money inspired me ... to get out from underneath my debt faster!” she said.

Presidential project

Want to show former President Jimmy Carter and first lady Rosalynn Carter what you would do if you had a hammer? Would you hammer in the morning? Hammer in the evening? All over this land? A few lucky folks will be chosen to work alongside the Carters during the 2013 Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter Work Project for Habitat for Humanity of Metro Denver from Oct. 6 through 11. This is the 30th anniversary of the presidential Habitat for Humanity event, and Denver is one of three cities in the U.S. getting the special project. Volunteers will build 11 new townhomes and repair up to 15 existing homes in Denver’s Globeville neighborhood. For more information, visit www.habitatmetrodenver.org.

Makes sense

When the creative team behind the musical interpretation of Jane Austen’s classic novel “Sense & Sensibility” first presented their idea to Tony-nominated director Marcia Milgrom Dodge, she thought they were kidding. How could Austen’s iconic 1811 work of romantic fiction possibly translate into a piece for musical theater? But the team convinced Milgrom Dodge, who fell in love with the formidable project. The result made its world premiere April 5 in Denver Center’s Stage Theatre. The result is a whimsical romp through the lives and loves of the Dashwood sisters, who go from riches to rags after the death of their father. The sisters and their mother move to Barton Cottage in Devonshire, near the home of her cousin, Sir John Middleton. It’s at Barton where a series of tangled Parker continues on Page 23

Participating artists include Teresa Duran of Arvada; Jose Esquibel, Littleton; Lynn Fresquez and Vanessa Fresquez, Denver; Ronn Miera, Brighton; and Carlos Santisteif you Go van y Familia, Denver.

DIA’s design delights

“USA Today” recently included Denver International Airport in its list of the “world’s most beautiful airports.” Here’s what the story said: “Denver International Airport’s iconic peaked fiberglass roof is meant to resemble the Rocky Mountains. Interior details throughout the airport have sparked numerous conspiracy theories — everything from supposed Templar markings in the floors to the theory that the airport serves as the secret headquarters for the Illuminati.” For more of the story, plus recommended Denver sights worth seeing, go to www.usatoday.com/story/travel/

Ronn Miera’s carved figure of San Jose Patriarca is included in the “Santitos” exhibit at the CHAC Gallery. Courtesy photo to tell traditional stories. A Santito or Benedito is a small blessing given to a person who is headed out on a journey, Miera said. Usually, they were made by a parent or grandparent. Esquibel, a scholar in the field, will talk at 1 p.m. April 20 about “Modern Usage of Santos.” He says we can use santos to enhance people’s lives. They can reconnect us to each other … ease pain and sorrow of this time and the circumstance in which we live. Modern usage is described as (1) Use of santos as a surrogate for our presence. (2) Use as teaching aids and devices. (3) Use to express a profound sentiment that cannot be expressed in any other way. (4) To celebrate accomplishments or mark significant public events. He will give examples and encourage conversation. He said he is tending the gallery on Saturdays. Visitors will find a friendly and knowledgeable source of information if they stop to ask questions about subjects or techniques.

Steak escape

The Travel Channel recently aired an episode of the series “Food Paradise” with a third “Steak Paradise” edition, which included a stop at Vesta Dipping Grill, 1822 Blake St. Personally, when I think Denver steak house, Vesta doesn’t come to top of mind, but the “Food Paradise” peeps “steaked” a claim to Vesta. In the piece, diners rave about Vesta’s beef steak dishes, including the signature surf and turf, which is a flatiron steak with Manila clams. The segment likely will air again on the Travel Channel, but until then, you can check it out at www.travelchannel.com/ video/a-steak-by-any-other-name.

Arts collaboration will fill museum hall “Transformation,” a site-specific installation by multimedia artists Annica Cuppetelli and Cristobal Mendoza, will be introduced in the Fuse Box, level 4 atrium in the north building of the Denver Art Museum from 5:30-7 p.m. April 26. Following a reception with the artists, they will collaborate with the Music Sacra Chamber Orchestra to create an interactive performance beginning at 7:30 p.m. in Ponti Hall, North Building. (Ponti was the North Building architect.) The two artists come from disparate backgrounds: he from computer programming and she from fiber art. The two have developed a contemporary hybridized language. The work is part of a museum-wide exhibition: “Spun: Adventures in Textiles,” which will be displayed throughout the museum from May 19 to Sept. 22. The concert/interactive event is only on April 26, as part of the final Friday Untitled series, #56 (Current). See denverartmuseum.org for admission information.

It will debut with the Colorado Symphony May 31 at Denver’s Boettcher Hall. “It’s a passionate symphony not only about Colorado, but it’s really a symphony about overcoming the odds and overcoming hardship, and finding hope even in the midst of the storm,” Denler said. “We all know that life is hard, and on some people it’s harder than oth-

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com Littleton United Methodist Church began its Fine Arts Series in 1992, with 15 patrons, said David Kates, director of music and fine arts at this active church. “Lately, we have over 100,” he added. Members of the congregation — some performers and others simply art lovers — have been generous in supporting free concerts for the community, as well as the annual festival. He and Pat Estes originally coordinated his brainchild, expanding from one concert to a season with concerts and commissions. “It’s a ministry of the church,” he said. “This local church has a significant role in fund-

Emmy Award-winning composer Charles Denler, of Highlands Ranch, recently completed the recording for “Portraits of Colorado, An American Symphony No. 1,” the first in a series of planned symphonies. The 10-movement symphony will be performed with the Colorado Symphony Orchestra and Chorus May 31 at Boettcher Concert Hall in Denver. Photo by Ryan Boldrey ers. This symphony is about celebrating new beginnings and fresh starts.” Writing with the dissonance and quick resolve of Aaron Copland to the melody and theme of John Williams, Denler intends to follow up “Portraits of Colorado” with two other symphonies in the next two years: “Portraits of an American Soldier, American Symphony No. 2” and “Portraits of New England, An American Symphony No. 3.” In addition to the symphonies and composing scores for Honda, Oprah Winfrey and “NBC Dateline,” Denler — who earned his Emmys for best music in 2004 with “Bentley Creek” and in 2005 for “Beyond the Medal of Honor” — recently composed the film score for “Henry and Me,” an animated feature due out this fall about an 8-year-old boy struggling with cancer who finds hope through baseball. The movie features the voices of Richard Gere, Cyndi Lauper, Paul Simon and numerous New York Yankees past and present, such as Reggie Jack-

son, Yogi Berra, Alex Rodriguez and Curtis Granderson. The story of how Denler came to write “Portraits of Colorado” will also be featured later this summer on PBS in a documentary by award-winning filmmaker Steve Greisen, called “An American Symphony.” The documentary will explore the motivation behind the symphony and flash from Malzhan’s paintings to the locations that inspired them, and will feature interviews with the composer and artist as well as live footage of the May 31 performance. “It’s really a cool inside look at the inspiration,” Denler said. “People don’t write symphonies that much anymore. It makes the process feel normal to people, not so mysterious, not just something that dead guys have done.” For more information on the composer, to hear samples or to purchase tickets for the concert with the Colorado Symphony, please visit www.littlerivermusic.com.

Hikes explore wonders of Sanctuary Event scheduled at exclusive golf course

Sanctuary HikeS

9 a.M. : Entire course — 7 miles, self-guided only 10 a.M. : 9 holes only — 3.5 miles, guided and selfguided hikes

By Chris Michlewicz

11 a.M. : 4-hole loop — 2 miles, guided and self-guided

cmichlewicz@ourcoloradonews.com The public is invited to explore one of the most pristine expanses of land in Douglas County. The Sanctuary golf course, an exclusive 18-hole course abutting Daniels Park northwest of Castle Rock, is hosting its second public hiking day April 27. Two hundred lucky residents will have the chance to take both guided and self-guided hikes along the undulating trails that weave through the Sanctuary, which is consistently ranked among the top 100 private golf courses in the nation by Golf Digest. The hike is being put on by The Wildlife Experience, a conservation-focused museum founded by Dave Liniger, who built the Sanctuary. He also started real estate giant RE/MAX with his wife, Gail. The Linigers are the only members of the course and play is through invitation only. The Wildlife Experience tweaked its mission two years ago by adding an outdoor education component. “We’ve started to expand on the mission to include outdoor adventures like fishing, hiking, GPS scavenger hunts,” said Dan Zimmerer, education manager at the mu-

A group heads out during last year’s hike at the exclusive Sanctuary golf course outside of Castle Rock. The second annual event is scheduled for April 27. Courtesy photo seum. “The thought is, if we’re encouraging people to get outside and hike and camp and do archery and fishing, they will want to protect the wildlife and their habitat.” Zimmerer described the hike as a unique opportunity to explore a scenic property that is normally closed to the public. The 100 people who participated in the inaugural hike last October were greeted by cloudy skies and cold temperatures, so organizers are hoping for better weather this time

Shorter hikes are available, and participants can choose to walk the paths on their own. However, Zimmerer recommends having a knowledgeable guide to describe the abundant flora, including lush flower gardens and native vegetation, and

fauna, including elk and bear. When creating the course, the Linigers went to great lengths to ensure as little disruption to the ecosystem as possible, Zimmerer said. Wildlife migration corridors were left intact and the Douglas County open space division has a conservation easement. “They wanted to create something that enhances the natural environment,” he said. Slots are expected to fill up quickly and participants must pre-register for the hike. The cost is only $5 for museum members and $7 for non-members. Another hiking event is tentatively planned for October. The Sanctuary hosts an average of 30 events each summer for nonprofit agencies to have fundraising tournaments. As of last fall, use of the course helped generate more than $68 million for charity since opening in 1997.

of Colorado Cancer Center at the Anschutz Medical Campus are engaged in multipronged studies to try and determine the cause of pancreatic cancer, the most effective treatment methods and ways to detect it much earlier. The first fundraiser for Wings of Hope, scheduled for April 25 at The Wildlife Experience, is nearly sold out, reflecting the high number of people in Douglas County with a great interest in stopping the disease’s advance. The best part is that Shul and the nonprofit’s board of directors will have direct discussion with researchers to determine the best use of the funds that are raised. “Of all of the things I’ve ever been involved with, nothing has been more meaningful or significant as starting this foundation,” Shul said. The charity event will not only highlight advances in research and raise awareness, it will feature Shul’s brother, Brian, a bestselling author and former SR-71 pilot, as the keynote speaker. Brian Shul will relate his harrowing story of survival after being shot down over Vietnam. His family received notification that he died, and it wasn’t until 48 hours later that they learned he was alive. When asked what her brother and mother would think about her actions in the wake of their untimely deaths, Shul says she hopes they would be proud. “We’re making a contribution in a way that is honoring them as well as helping me get through all of this,” she said. “I’m doing what I’m supposed to be doing. I couldn’t just walk away from it.” For more information or tickets to the Wings of Hope for Pancreatic Cancer Research event April 25 at The Wildlife Experience, visit www.wingsofhopepcr.org or call 720-733-0491.

Parker SportS Huskies’ Kiefer on a streak 28-Color-Sports

Shortstop among top hitters in Continental League By Jim Benton

jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com There are myriad terms to describe baseball players when they come to bat. They could be labeled as contact, power, slap, mistake or badball hitters, among the expressions. But Douglas County’s Logan Kiefer calls himself a stupid hitter. Kiefer, a senior shortstop, is among the Continental League’s leading hitters with a .556 batting average, a .625 on base percentage and a league-best 1.148 slugging percentage. He smacked his fourth home run of the season April 12 in a 14-4 loss to ThunderRidge and is tied for the league lead with the Grizzlies’ Brody Westmoreland. He and Westmoreland are the

state home run leaders among Class 5A players. “Everything feels good right now,” Kiefer said. “I’m just trying to stay within myself and not try to do too much. Sometimes that can be hard. You try to think too much. You just have to hit stupid. That’s my motto for myself, hit stupid. “When you’re on, you’re on, and right now the ball just feels like a watermelon coming in.” Douglas County coach Mark Roberts has marveled at what he’s seen from Kiefer this spring. “He’s making the transition from second base to shortstop this year and doing an excellent job for us both offensively and defensively,” Roberts said. “I remember seeing Logan his freshman year and it’s been fun to watch him grow. And when I saw grow, I mean just that. “Logan has grown from a 5-foot-6 freshman to a 6-3 senior. He has the skills and now has the size and strength to go with it. He’s

Lack of school pool doesn’t stop Griffin Senior swims in multiple events By Jim Benton

j b e n t o n @ o u rc o l o ra d o news.com Warren Ross couldn’t help but wonder what it would be like to have a school swimming pool like the one at Smoky Hill High School. Ross is the coach of the Ponderosa co-op team, which draws swimmers and divers from Chaparral, Legend and Ponderosa high schools. “None of the schools in Douglas County have pools and it’s really slim pickings when it comes to advertising for the sport when you don’t have a pool in your school,” Ross said. However, the Ponderosa co-op team has one of the state’s best swimmers in Carter Griffin. Griffin, a senior at Chaparral, is the Class 5A defending state champion in the 200 and 500 freestyle events. He captured the state 200 title last season with a time of 1:40.92 and swam a 4:34.43 to take first in the 500. “It’s amazing to have a swimmer like Carter come out of a school that doesn’t have a pool,” Ross said. Griffin has been swimming multiple events so far this season and has yet to pick one on which to concentrate.

“He can do anything from sprints to distance and all four strokes in between,” Ross said. His times in five different events rank among the best posted by Class 5A swimmers this season. H i s 47.25 in the 100 freestyle is the sixth fastest. He has Griffin the second best clocking in the 100 backstroke (40.65), third quickest in the 100 butterfly (51.95), seventh in the 200 freestyle (1:44.63) and eighth best in the 200 IM (1:58.72). He swam in the 500 for the first time this season on April 12, but results were not available. “He’s good enough that he doesn’t know exactly what events he wants to compete in at state,” Ross said. “He’s such a team player that with our team, we’re pretty decent this year, that he said wherever you want to put me, whatever makes the team stronger, I’ll swim any of those. That’s what we’ve done. “We have to fine-tune where he’s going swim at state. He can fill any open spot we have and do well.” Griffin swam in three preliminary relay races April 13 at the Smoky Hill Invitational, but then bowed out to get ready for a prom at Chaparral.

been a vocal leader on this year’s team and I’ve spoken to numerous college coaches who are interested in his baseball talent.” Kiefer has a strong throwing arm and has adapted well to his new defensive position. “At shortstop there is more responsibility, you have to lead the team,” Kiefer said. “It takes skill to play both positions, but at short you definitely have to have more range, more versatility, you have to be more of an athlete and have to keep everyone in the game. “Growing up, I kind of always played shortstop. I was smaller than everybody my sophomore year, I started to sprout my junior year but I still played second. This year I came out and played shortstop all fall and came out and played short this spring.” Kiefer hasn’t let the position switch bother his approach at the plate. He was 2-for-3 in the loss at ThunderRidge, scored twice and crushed a solo homer.

matter just as much. Compared to the last two seasons, I’m 100 percent better.”
