Divide jazzed up with UTV By Pat Hill
phill@ourcoloradonews.com It’s bright, it’s shiny and catapults the Divide Fire Protection District into the realm of ultimate outdoor rescuers. It’s the UTV, the Utility Terrain Vehicle. Jim Lee, firefighter, emergency medical technician and station manager, is justifiably proud of the $20,000 vehicle funded by grants from El Pomar Foundation as well as the emergency services divisions at the state and county levels. “The UTV can go similar places as the ATV but offers a greater degree of patient care,” Lee said. Parked in the department’s station, the UTV is ready for service in the spring when accidents happen more frequently in the backcountry. Equipped with a “bed” for the patient and a “slider” seat for the medical attendant, the vehicle offers efficiency of care on the way to the hospital. “The attendant can move up and down and remain secure,” Lee said. With anywhere from 40 to 50 volunteers, the fire department, whose chief is Tom O’Connor, thrives on the generosity of the residents. “I think the quality of our training helps us attract and retain volunteers,” Lee said. “While some want to build their resumes, they all have a desire to help the community. I volunteer because I live here.” Whatever the reason, the number of volunteers in rural Divide is critical. “There are only so many people who work in Teller County,” Lee said.

Mayor Worthey’s woes continue By Pat Hill
phill@ourcoloradonews.com In another broad swipe at Green Mountain Falls’ Mayor Lorrie Worthey, the board of trustees voted to appoint mayor pro tem Jane Newberry as the public information officer for all media requests dealing with the planning phase of the new town hall. Trustee Mac Pitrone proposed the mo-
tion which passed by a 5-2 vote, with the mayor and trustee Tyler Stevens opposed. Pitrone’s motion at the meeting March 5 stems from an article in the Gazette about the new town hall in which Worthey was the source. According to town clerk Chris Frandina, the article contained incorrect information. As the new PIO, Newberry is also the manager of grants for the town-hall project
while trustees Pitrone and Ralph LoCascio were named managers of construction and engineering, respectively. Worthey’s public woes escalated at the board meeting Feb. 19 when the trustees voted to remove the mayor as the liaison to the marshal’s office and approved the appointment of trustee Howard Price to take her place. Again, Worthey and Stevens opposed the motion. While Price has been publicly vocal about the number of speeding tickets issued by Police Chief Tim Bradley (aka the marshal) and his deputies, as the new liaison, he’s given up a little ground. “The board can’t tell the marshal to blow off tickets because we have told him specifically what to do (about speeders),” Price said. “We can say `use reasonable discretion.’ We have become known as the `ticket capital of Colorado.’” In a clear-the-air meeting with Bradley that included Newberry, Price questioned the number of the department’s agency assists in other jurisdictions. However, Bradley justified the assists as necessary to
provide law-enforcement backup for police stops in Ute Pass. “I still don’t like it, think we should spend more time in town,” Price said. Blazing a new trail with the marshal’s office, Price has requested information within 24 hours on issues such as hires, fires and suspensions within the marshal’s department. As the liaison, Price reported that he expects to know when an officer is involved in a fight, pulls a weapon or is threatened, “Or any purchase above $1,000 I want to know about it; or if there are any problems in the operation,” he said. No longer a vocal critic of the marshal’s department, Price has apparently initiated a sense of cohesion and cooperation. “I think we’re going to have a strong relationship between the marshal’s office and this board,” Price said. “The board wanted answers to questions and I think we’re getting them.” For his part, Bradley seemed pleased. “Thank you,” he said.

$1 puts Cripple Creek in broadband business Council backs plan to add new name to 18.7 miles of Colo. 67 By Norma Engelberg
nengelberg@ourcoloradonews.com For Baja Broadband, 83 was not the magic number. With only 83 customers in Cripple Creek, the broadband company decided that serving the city isn’t profitable. Rather than removing and recycling its equipment, before pulling out it gave the city an opportunity to buy its system for $1. Cripple Creek City Council approved the purchase at its March 6 meeting. According to city attorney Lee Phillips, this makes Cripple Creek the only Colorado municipality with its own cable system. The city won’t run the system, however. It plans to sign a contract with Doug Estrada to run it. Estrada already has a con-
tract to provide information technology services for the city. The problem, he said, is that while many people have turned to satellite TV, those services don’t provide local channels such as the channel the city uses to broadcast council meetings. John Posusta “See what kind of entertainment they’d miss if cable goes away,” one councilmember said to general laughter from the audience. Jane Mannon, community affairs manager at Cripple Creek & Victor Gold Mining Co., reported on negotiations between the mine and Cripple Creek & Victor Narrow Gauge Railroad. “Rumors are flying that the railroad is ceasing operations because of the mine,” she said. “The truth is that the mine has done nothing to prevent the railroad from
GMF deputy arrested By Pat Hill
phill@ourcoloradonews.com Green Mountain Falls Marshal’s Deputy Ken McQueen, 47, is on paid administrative leave, after his arrest March 1 by the Woodland Park Police Department. McQueen, who was taken to the Teller County jail, was arrested on a warrant for harassment, interference with school (failure to leave) and interference with school (credible threat). According to a press release, the police department received a
complaint from the RE-2 School District about a parent creating a disturbance at the middle school. After investigation, the department obtained a warrant for McQueen’s arrest. McQueen turned himself in and was charged with 2 counts of interfering with students, staff or faculty of an education institution and 1 count of harassment. McQueen was released after posting a $5,000 bond. According to Green Mountain Falls’ Police Chief Tim Bradley, McQueen is on leave until further notice.
nengelberg@ourcoloradonews.com The wrong year’s list of Woodland Park summer events was published in the 2103 Teller County Guide but Woodland Park is still offering its full slate of major events this summer: The Woodland Park Farmers Market starts June 14 and will continue every Friday into October in the city’s downtown. The Old Fashioned Fourth of July will be in Memorial Park in downtown Woodland Park and will feature traditional activities and games for children and adults alike. Local civic, charitable and political organizations will offer information and vendors will have merchandise, food and beverages. On July 5 is the 33rd annual Symphony Above the Clouds, featuring the Colorado Springs Philharmonic. This free concert will be at the Woodland Park Middle School. The 28th annual Mountain Arts Festival will be Aug. 3-4 on the Green at the Midland Pavilion.
The dispute is now in mediation. If no agreement is reached, the railroad will likely take the case to district court, Mannon said after the meeting. Council accepted professional service agreements for several projects and added another dentist to a Cripple Creek Medical Plaza lease. Its last act of the meeting was to approve a resolution backing the American Legion’s request to the state legislature to name the 18.7-mile section of Colo. 67 from Divide to Cripple Creek the POW/MIA Memorial Highway. Council thought the name was appropriate considering the number of years the route has been used for the POW/ MIA Remembrance Ride from Woodland Park to Cripple Creek at the beginning of each year’s Salute to American Veterans Rally. “This will not change anybody’s address,” said city administrator Ray White.

continuing its operations. We’ve bought 1,600 feet of the railroad’s right of way but it can still do what it has always done, take the train out to Squaw Gulch and bring it back.” The right of way for the track was deeded to the railroad by the Golden Cycle Corporation back on 1976 on condition that if the mining company ever needed the land it would pay the railroad for it. The mine signed an agreement with the railroad owners for the right of way in 2010, Mannon said. “The agreement included a commitment from the mine to deed the railroad the surface rights to another property,” she said. “We paid for the right of way and drew up the surface-rights transfer last year. I think the railroad is planning to build a Yshaped turnaround on the property. The original sale doesn’t say anything about mineral rights but the railroad is insisting that we also deed them the mineral rights for that land.”
At the crack of dawn on Aug. 10, runners will be flocking to the 24th annual Woodland Park Mayor’s Cup 5K and 10K foot races and Kids’ Fun Run.

OW/ The state has started an Environmental landCrimes Unit that will be available to assist ng ofand support counties with clean-up sites. erans “We have the right to enforce state and federal environmental laws but the enviad-ronmental crimes unit knows those laws te. inside and out,” Steed said at the group’s monthly meeting on March 7. “The state has the hammer if we need it.” Also at the meeting, Teller County Sheriff’s Office Operations Manager Bud Bright
asked people if they know of organizations, such as homeowners and property owners associations and neighborhood groups that might appreciate having a presentation on what the sheriff’s office does for the local community. “We can tailor the presentation to your needs,” he said. “For example we could talk about our vacation and subdivision patrols or about DUIs and the implications of the new marijuana laws.” He also asked for help updating the county’s contact lists. “Call the sheriff’s office or send me an email,” he said. The office number is 719-687-9652. Bright’s email address is brightb@co.teller. co.us. For the purposes of statutory requirements, the county appointed Dr. David Russ as its medical director several years ago but from now on Dr. Jeremy DeWall, one of Russ’ Partners at Front Range Emergency Specialists, will be directing Teller County Search & Rescue operations.

Local rockhounds hit the small screen The Weather Channel begins new series on prospecting By Norma Engelberg
nengelberg@ourcoloradonews.com People don’t usually use the words “The Weather Channel” and “Prospectors” in the same sentence but that might change at the end of March. Last summer, a Weather Channel crew came to Colorado to film nine episodes of a new series called “Prospectors.” The series features several local prospectors and miners, including the Joe Dorris family, Amanda Adkins and Rich Fretterd, whose giant smoky quartz crystal is usually on display at the Pikes Peak Historical Society Museum in Florissant.
“The film crew was out on our claims during the past summer at Mt Antero, Pilot Peak, and Crystal Peak,” Dorris wrote in an email. “They were present when we hit a monster pocket and got some great shots. My son Scott was able to come home for a few days of filming then returned to duty and is back in Afghanistan. He should be coming home soon, yea!” “Prospectors” airs at 7 p.m. local time every Tuesday starting on March 26. Also starting March 26, members of the Lake George Gem & Mineral Club have reserved a conference room every Tuesday night at the Woodland Park Denny’s Restaurant so they can watch the series as a group on two large TV screens. Promotional videos for the new series can be viewed at http://www.weather.com/ video/series-premiere-35057.

Bringing Aikido to Cripple Creek Martial artist for 55 years, teaches at Parks and Recreation By Norma Engelberg
nengelberg@ourcoloradonews.com Cripple Creek Parks and Recreation is a one-stop shop for most forms of fitness, everything from archery to Zumba. If it makes people move and, sometimes, even if it doesn’t, there’s a good chance parks and recreation offers a program for it. In fact, parks and recreation is always looking for teachers. Charles “Chuck” Caldwell is one teacher who answered the call. He has been a student of the martial arts since he was just a boy and has been teaching the defensive skill of Aikido in Cripple Creek for four years. Originally from Oklahoma, Caldwell owned the Windsong Dojo. He said that sounds exotic but “dojo” is just the Japanese word for “gym.” “It’s still running under my top student,” he said. “I’m retired but martial arts have been a major part of my life for so many years; I can’t just quit.” Aikido is a purely defensive art and Caldwell is a ninth-degree black belt in the skill, one of only three living people in the world who have reached that level. “There is only one 10th-degree black belt and he’s my teacher,” Caldwell said. “Karl Geis is the Hanshi (master) of the Fugakukai International Association of Martial Arts.” While Caldwell knows five martial arts, his experience in Vietnam and as a police officer has shown him that Aikido is the only one that works in the field. Where other martial arts, like Karate for example, pit force against force, Aikido redirects the attacker’s energy back to him or her, Caldwell explained. “Size, speed and strength don’t mean anything in Aikido,” he said. “It looks more like ballet than martial arts but it works and can be lethal. It’s great for people with small frames.” His classes, 5:30-6:30 p.m. Mondays and
Wednesdays at the city recreation center, 128 E. Bennett Ave., are open to anyone age 14 and older. “Because of the joint locks involved you have to wait until the student’s cartilage has hardened to bone to avoid joint problems later in life,” he said. Among the first things he teaches his students is how to fall. “Learning how to fall is important in all kinds of defense, not just against bad guys but also on ice and stairs and other situations,” he said. “The students work on that always but we also work on awareness. You need to be aware of your surroundings; know what signals to watch for.” While students are learning how to fall and be aware, they also learn the “Walking Kata,” a prearranged set of movements. Next they learn to defend against being grabbed. “According to emergency room people and police officers, 92 percent of the time the first movement against someone is grabbing,” he said. Students then learn how to defend against punches and kicks. “Kicks are the easiest,” Caldwell said. “After that, it’s about refining the techniques they’ve already learned.” As students learn, they attain different skill levels designated by the color of their belt, progressing from white, through green, three levels of brown and up to 10 black-belt levels. “After reaching black belt, some students go on to learn how to defend against knives and guns but only when the gun is less than seven feet away,” Caldwell said. “Any farther away and you’ll just get shot.” He added, “The belts are not rewards for achievement. They tell people with higher levels of skills not to use those skills on people who haven’t reached their level.” The classes are $40 per month and no special clothing is necessary. “Most people want to wear the uniform, called a Gi (hard G and rhymes with tree),” he said. “But they’re expensive and all you really need is a sweatshirt and sweatpants.” For more information about Aikido and other classes, call parks and recreation at 719-689-3514.
Student asserts WP has a bear problem WPHS senior works with state on bear study in city By Norma Engelberg
nengelberg@ourcoloradonews.com Woodland Park High School senior Alyssa Meier wants to be a biologist but had run out of high school biology classes to take. That’s what prompted her to take on a senior seminar project for Colorado Parks and Wildlife. She talked to local wildlife manager Tonya Sharp who asked her if she would conduct a survey of bear activity in Woodland Park as an independent study and service project. Meier presented the results of her project to the Woodland Park City Council on March 7. “I surveyed local restaurants and asked them if they had a bear problem,” she said. “I was surprised that not everyone who sees bears, even when they get into their trash,
thinks they’re a problem. About one-third of restaurant owners had bears raiding their trash but only one reported an incident to the police.” She compiled information and mapped bear sightings in the city. Her results showed that one area near downtown on Woodland Avenue had 17 percent of 80 bear sightings, more sightings than any other area of town. She also talked about a bear that had to be killed recently because it was hanging out near Gateway Elementary School. “We have a bear problem whether we think we do or not,” she said. “Here in Woodland Park we like our lifestyle and we like our wildlife but a habituated (to humans) bear is a dangerous bear.” She made several suggestions about what to do about the bears. City Manager David Buttery agreed with her request that the city put bear aware information on its website and said he would work with Sharp on other things the city can do about its bear problem.

6-OPINION OPINIONS / YOURS AND OURS
March 13, 2013
Following me around before I get there Some people seem to follow you around - before you get there. Almost everywhere I have ended up, I discover Dr. William Abraham Bell was there before me, a little more than 100 years prior. Child of Ireland, born to English parents, photographer, physician, best-selling author, businessman, developer and founder of towns in southern Colorado such as Manitou Springs, Durango, and Colorado Springs, Bell showed early and often. And as a major early presence in Woodland Park, Monument, Palmer Lake and Pueblo, he always gave most of the credit to his friend, General William J. Palmer. “The rapid development of the United States is largely due to the few men of exceptional ability who have opened up the country by various systems of railroads. They may be called empire builders ... With these General William J. Palmer ranks as the developer of southern Colorado by means of construction of the Denver and
Rio Grande Railroad and much of Mexico by founding the Mexican National Railway...,” Bell told employees of the Denver and Rio Grande Railroad at a dinner at Union Station in 1920. By the time he married Cara Scovell in early1872, William A. Bell could show his new bride, and other guests visiting Colorado, such notable local stops as Palmer’s Glen Eyrie, Garden of the Gods, Sacred Springs at Manitou, his sheep farm in Monument and soon-to-be-developed ice operations at Palmer Lake.
Truth be known, Bell, himself, turned out to be a pretty handy sidekick. “My earliest association with General Palmer dates from the Kansas Pacific Survey of 1867 (later part Union Pacific), an account of which is given in a book of travels called “New Tracks in North America,” which I published in England in 1869... On that survey we shared the same tent for many months and over the camp fire we discussed his plans.” It was Bell that carried out many of the details of empire building around Palmer’s railroads, including the non-conventional selection of gauge. “The question of gauge was the first thing to be determined,” wrote Bell of his friend Palmer. “The day after his wedding, on November 8th, 1870, he started for England. I met him in London and there consulted the great engineer Fowler and General Richard Strachery, R.E., who had introduced narrow gauge railroads into
India with the metro gauge. We visited the Fastiniog Railway, a two-foot gauge road in Wales, and we finally adopted a three-foot gauge for the new enterprise.” Rails were ordered and shipped from Wales, 30 pounds to the yard and grading started. “By August, 1871, the railroad was completed to the new town of Colorado Springs, which had in the meantime been located and laid out on broad lines, but which had but one finished house on the townsite when the railroad reached it,” he wrote. “Early the following year, the track was finished to Pueblo and the Canon City coal fields, hand in hand with the railroad came the opening up and development of the country through which it was to pass.” On one hand there was Gen. Palmer, on the other Dr. William A. Bell - their train always arriving before we do. ###
Things must change if droughts continue The problem with drought is that you don’t notice it until it’s been around awhile and, despite recent snowstorms, Colorado’s drought isn’t likely to end anytime soon. In fact, “arid” and “semi-arid” are Colorado’s natural states; wet years are the exception. For the nearly three-quarters of Coloradans who aren’t from around here, that fact has been difficult to wrap our thoughts around. News flash: You can’t live the life you had in the Midwest here in the arid West. The way things are going, you won’t be able to live that life anywhere in the United States. If you don’t believe me, visit the U.S. Drought Monitor at the University of Nebraska, Lincoln, http://droughtmonitor. unl.edu/. You can watch a video progression of drought for the past 12 weeks and take a peek at previous years’ maps, and, for those of you who believe global warming is a hoax perpetrated by evil Liberal

work. If you don’t like mowing, grow no or only low-maintenance turf; save your back and conserve water. Also think about installing a drought-resistant landscape, a xeriscape, which, contrary to myth, isn’t a just pile of rocks punctuated by cacti and yucca. Another alternative to the traditional, well-watered lawn (pun intended) is to follow my philosophy: If you can’t eat it, don’t water it. Tomatoes, cucumbers and kohlrabi look good in my front yard. We should also rethink the way we use land. Take golf courses, for example. According to Golf Course Superintendents of America, U.S. golf courses cover 3,507, mostly-irrigated, square miles. Maybe we could change the game to “scrub-land golf.” Imagine the challenge of hitting your ball out of a prickly-pear outcropping and this would certainly give new meaning to the term “sand trap.” Scrub-land golf
would also make watching the game less like watching wallpaper and more like watching a real spectator sport. If long-term droughts continue, a real possibility, a lot of things beside recreational land use are going to change. Drought affects everything from food and energy production to tourism and national security: think water wars. In fact, just about any industry, service or commodity you can name is affected directly or indirectly by how much fresh water is available and how efficiently we use the supply we have. We might even have to squeeze together; urban areas are better at water conservation, and grow our food on vertical farms that use every drop.

Teens texting in their sleep In case you missed the Internet headlines about a month ago, a multitude of articles heralded the fact that “Teen sleep texting is on the rise.” It’s common knowledge that teens are virtually inseparable from their smart phones but now it seems that more and more adolescents are actually texting in their sleep in a sort of digital sleep walking. “It’s something new. We’re just starting to get a handle on,” says Dr. Elizabeth Dowdell, a professor of nursing at Villanova University. “I think that we will start to see more of this as cell phones become much more accessible at all ages.” According to an article in the Huff Post TECH, sleep texting is defined as when the beep of a cell phone lightly awakens a person so he or she, without being fully awake, will pick up the phone and respond to a message. Often, that response is nonsensical and the person, upon wakening in the morning, has no recollection of having sent the text. Four of five teenagers sleep with their smart phone within arm’s reach making them highly susceptible to sleep texting. The downside is a whole host of health consequences linked with sleep deprivation. Ari Brown, a busy pediatrician in Austin, Texas, found her 17-year-old son in bed asleep with his cell phone in his hand. “Teenagers probably get the least sleep out of many age groups and they really need that sleep because they’re still growing and their brains are growing,” says Brown. According to a Pew Internet Survey, the phenomenon of texting as the primary way for adolescents to communicate is growing at a staggering rate. The volume has increased from an average of 50 texts a day in 2009 to 60 texts a day in 2011 making texting the dominant mode of daily communication between teens. Most of the increase occurred in the 14
to 17 year-old age bracket, who skyrocketed from 60 texts a day to an average of 100 texts just two years later. Think about it, if you are awake 16 hours a day, you’re sending a text every 9.6 minutes that is unless you’re doing all your texting while you’re asleep. The experts at the Mayo Clinic offer some advice on helping your teen avoid the risks of teen texting in general. First, don’t allow your teen to text while driving. Sit down with him or her and watch Woodland Park’s own Daniel Carr’s award winning video on distracted driving at http://www.youtube.com/ watch?v=y3zpnvPwlMg. Work with your teen to establish reasonable hours for texting. To help your child avoid sleep texting, keep the phone out of the bedroom after the lights go out. Actively monitor your teen’s text messages and while monitoring the text exchanges, be aware of cyber bullying. And be proactive about cyber bullying, whether it’s your child being bullied or doing the bullying. Finally, enforce consequences for breaking the rules you set for texting. Remind your teenager that having a phone is a privilege and not a right.

YOUR VIEW Thank you
Thank you to all of our family, those near and far who came; those who were not able to come and all the people who have become part of the tapestry that is our family here for helping us celebrate 40 years of life, love and laughter. A special thank you to Scott Montgomery and Ryan Stone of the Triple Crown Casinos for the great food and wonderful atmosphere; Snareilicious Pastries for the “motorcycle” cake which was not only ingenious, but delicious as well (there was none left); Mark Snare and The Lanning Boys for the diverse music and especially to our daughters, Angela and Constance for providing us with the wedding reception we did not have 40 years ago. What a surprise. It truly was a feeling too big for our hearts. Thank you all. Nick and Jean Olmsted, Cripple Creek
2nd Amendment: Bad news, good news
The Bad News I have been closely monitoring the state legislature in Denver’s actions regarding the Second Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. Their actions are not only unconstitutional, but heavily influenced by the White House in Washington, D.C. As many as seven state representatives received calls from the White House attempting to sway their votes on gun rights, all of which ended up voting against our Second Amendment rights. These representatives were elected to support Colorado, not Washington, D.C. This is very disappointing and frustrating. The Good News I recently read an article in our local paper of an interview with Sheriff Mike Ensminger, and I recently had the opportunity to hear him speak at the Teller County Republican Central Committee meeting. I am proud to say we have a sheriff in Teller County who stands for the Constitution and the Second Amendment. Sheriff Ensminger is a member of County Sheriffs of Colorado. This organization recently wrote a paper regarding this issue and I am proud to say that they all (64 sheriffs) within the state of Colorado, mirror Sheriff Ensminger’s stance on this issue. They say the Second Amendment is not a guideline but rather a right. County Sheriffs of Colorado is committed to public safety and faithful
to their oath to uphold and protect the Constitution of the state of Colorado and the U.S. Constitution, including the Second Amendment. Sheriff Ensminger and County Sheriffs of Colorado will not waiver on their defense of the Constitution and will stand to preserve every constituent’s right to possess firearms. I applaud the Sheriff’s position and feel that we, the people of Teller County, are fortunate to have a Sheriff who honors his oath to the Constitution. Mick Bates, Divide
Writer takes umbrage at LaBarre’s comments
Dear Editor, In the Feb. 13 Courier View, an article about the minimum-wage increase was featured. Mr. LaBarre of High Country Restaurant Holdings, asserted that the new wage should not be part of the Colorado Constitution. He gives two reasons why the law should be in the constitution: one, to get the law removed, a vote of the people is required. Two, Mr. LaBarre argues “our Constitution is in shambles” because special interest groups “get things on it” by abuse. I will argue, without the obligation to carry out the law, employers would keep employees in minimumwage bondage. Many employees receive a raise only when the minimum wage goes up, which has taken year. Another way employers keep wages low is to put a cap on how much an employee can earn ins his or work life. Imagine working long and hard for maybe a dollar raise over the minimum wage and a cap is put on your earnings. These methods, with internal company policies that can also subtract from an income, place the employee in a disadvantaged status. What is the higher moral voice I hear saying? Profit by repression is wrong. The power of the state is great; it can protect the insignificant individual such as thelow-wage worker. American history shows us that capitalism does not have a good record of regulating fairly on its own. It took a civil war to end forced labor without pay, thus, freedom to the African-American and decades for “special interest groups” to end child labor in horrific factories and mines. Presently, large corporations outsource labor in foreign countries for the precise reason that cheap labor can be recruited. These same corporations
EDITORS’ NOTE CCM marks Sunshine Week
Since 2005, Sunshine Week has been observed to highlight the importance of open government. It’s about the right we all enjoy to have access to public records. It’s about the role we all play in holding our government agencies accountable to those they serve. Launched by the American Society of News Editors, the initiative is timed
to coincide with the birthday of the “Father of the Constitution,” James Madison, on March 16. Sunshine Week 2013 began on March 10, and Colorado Community Media is marking the week by bringing you some insight into how you can obtain public records. Together, we can all work toward greater transparency in our federal, state and local governments.
will leave their employees without jobs as soon as the price of production goes up. W cannot depart from the concept of American law, justice for all. We need interest groups fighting for the underdog; we need Constitutional law to preserve life and library. Finally, the people’s vote, their choice is what democracy is about. Sincerely, Linda Hunt Cripple Creek s
Wait just a minute
To The Editor: I was just reading the Feb. 27 edition of the Courier View and have concerns about some comments made in the article “Authority Ready to Take Action After Retreat.” In this article various individuals are quoted stating that Woodland Park should become more “WiFi-friendly” with “broadband and WiFi throughout the city,” that we need better backup communications during emergencies and that there are “infrastructure issues” and “speed limitations.” Speaking as founder and owner of Peak Internet I would like to offer the following information about our company. I founded Peak Internet 11 years ago to address the lack of broadband connectivity in Woodland Park. Our company was the first provider to offer this type of service and have since grown our broadband network to be extremely fast and very reliable. Today we are still Woodland Park’s only LOCAL Internet & phone provider. We have been providing Free WiFi service throughout the downtown area since 2004. We have just recently added Free WiFi to the Meadow Wood Sports Complex. As of today we are able to provide service of 12Mbps or more to 87%
of the homes in the city, and 98% of the businesses in the city. Our network consists of multiple redundant gigabit microwave and fiber links to Colorado Springs and Denver. All of our network links and towers sites are fully redundant. Over the past 12 months our overall system uptime has been 99.991%. We have been providing redundant Internet, phone and other services to the City of Woodland Park for many years. As of last year we are also providing services to the El Paso/ Teller E911 Authority at all of their seven E911 PSAP’s in Teller and El Paso Counties. I would ask that the individuals quoted in the article please consider the abundance of reliable, inexpensive broadband options which are, and have been, available in this city for many years as they discuss the issues mentioned in the article in the future. Sincerely, Jayson A. Baker

Teddy comes to visit This guy would become a regular visitor but 1901 was when he came the first time. This fellow was already well known, but a big change was not too far away in the future. He was best known for his love of the West and Colorado was one of his favorites. He was on his second or third visit here to go hunting. He was a “big game” hunter, mountain lions, bear, and big horn sheep were his fare. He started his trip at Colorado Springs. He had a friend who lived in town and he would stay at his home for a few days. Teddy traveled in style and if there were no really good place for the night, he would stay on his train! He had a small one with only three cars: a baggage car and two “private” cars. One was for him; the other was for a few others who came along, too. In Colorado Springs he stayed with his friend, but several hotels offered him space. While in town he helped dedicate the new YMCA building. The YMCA was one of his favorite organizations. He also met with other groups and visited the area’s leaders. The gold camp had already had a plan for a visit, and this was mainly a hunting trip. His train was headed west to Rifle. It traveled by way of the Colorado Midland Railway, up Ute Pass, across South Park, to Leadville, for another short
stay, then on to Glenwood Springs and Rifle. Now, you may not have figured out that this was Teddy Roosevelt, then Vice President of the United States. He would be back again in 1902, and take the trip to Cripple Creek. The changes brought to Teddy, when President McKinley was assassinated in September, 1901 made his trips to Colorado more important. Roosevelt was not the first President to visit Colorado, and definitely not the last. Probably the first was U.S. Grant, who after he was President even traveled to Manitou. Warren G. Harding made a tour through in his campaign. Woodrow Wilson was here twice. He lived in Colorado Springs, teaching a summer at Colorado College. His second was historic, as he suffered a stroke in Pueblo, as he was campaigning. Truman also campaigned via private railroad car, but Presidents John F. Kennedy, Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford and Barack Obama all flew here. Mel McFarland, artist, author, retired teacher and railroader, is a Colorado Springs native who has a strong interest in the events of this area’s past.

Penelope Drew Morgan
Penelope Drew Morgan “Penny” passed away on Friday March 1, 2013 at the age of 64. She went quietly and peacefully, with her family weeping by her side. She was preceded in death by her parents, Guy Percy Drew, Jr. and Helen Drew. Penny left behind two siblings (Anne Drew and Terry Drew), three children (Ruth, Stephen, and Charles), and cherished friends. After living many years in Mississippi, Penny had returned to Colorado to care for her aging parents. After their passing, she slowly built a life of her own in Woodland Park. Though she’d spent most of her life battling depression, in her later years she discovered what a joy life could be. Ironically, she’d begun to regain a sense of peace and inner strength at the same time that her body began
to fail her. Among several interests, Penny adored arts and crafts. Above all, Penny loved the Lord. Her favorite quote came from John 8:36 – “So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed. Jesus sets me free!” Wanting to serve others in death as well as life, in accordance with her wishes, her corneas have been donated to Rocky Mountain Lions Eye Bank, and her body has been donated to Lone Tree Medical Donation for anatomical medical research. Penny was a gentle, kind, and loving person who will be missed by her family and friends. Cremation is planned. There will be no memorial service. In lieu of flowers or gifts, please make donations to Teller Senior Coalition in Woodland Park, CO www.tellerseniorcoalition.org.

Cyclists plan Ride of Silence By Pat Hill
phill@ourcoloradonews.com A one-woman dynamo Deborah Maresca is the energy behind the Ride for Silence May 15 (Wednesday) in Woodland Park. Founder of the Mountain Top Cycling Club, Maresca initiated the national event last year on her home turf. Distinguished by the slow pace of 12 mph, the Ride for Silence honors those who were injured or killed while riding their bicycles. In Woodland Park, the ride is dedicated to eight cyclists who were killed in 2012 while riding on Colorado public roadways. The ride is free and open to all levels of cyclists. Riders are asked to check in any time after 4 p.m. at the north-
west corner of the Safeway parking lot. From there, cyclists ride to the staging area at the traffic light just west of Woodland Park, at the intersection of CRs 231 and 25. The event begins at 6 p.m. From the staging area, the riders will have a police escort back to the Safeway parking lot, a two-mile ride that culminates in a variety of festivities, including speakers on cycling safety. An avid cyclist, Maresca is motivated by doing her part to ensure the safety of others, to cast a positive light on cycling in urban and rural areas. “When we lived in Texas, my husband and I did a Ride of Silence,” she said. “I feel the ride is a good tool to bring awareness of safety and cycling, in general. Our whole goal is to make it positive.”

30 years and still cookin’ By Pat Hill
phill@ourcoloradonews.com Kevin Johannes divulges a secret. To stay open 30 years in the restaurant business all you have to do is work at least 70 hours a week and hire a good accountant. Other than that, it’s a cake walk. But seriously, the milestones for the Circle H Smokehouse Pit Barbecue are impressive. The mortgage is retired and the restaurant’s reputation is solid. Johannes opened the Smokehouse 30 years ago on Browning Street in Woodland Park. At the time, he partnered with two investors who financed the construction of the building by the general contractor Pete Kuyper. Two years after opening, Johannes met his future wife, Cindy, who worked for the company that provided the alarm system. “She couldn’t resist; I brought her to her knees right over the phone,” he said with a hearty laugh. “She might tell you a different story.” Cindy eventually joined her husband in the kitchen. The two, with the addition of a full-time cook, smoke the meat, cook the meals, prep the salad bar and bake pies and cakes every day but Sunday. Their children, Garrett, 26, and Kelsey, 22, grew up at the restaurant and today are part of the family business. In 30 years, the numbers are staggering for the restaurant that specializes in barbecue, breakfast and down-home cooking. In 1,516 Wednesdays, for instance, the smokehouse cooked 112,500 dozen eggs, or 1,350,000 eggs, served 360,000 hamburgers and smoked 337,500 pounds of beef ribs. In the beginning, Johannes concentrated on learning the barbecue side, gradually adapting the menu to suit local tastes. “Overall, the thing we sell the most of is chicken-fried steak in various forms, for
For 30 years Cindy and Kevin Johannes have welcomed and nourished the locals at the Circle H Smokehouse Pit Barbecue restaurant in Woodland Park. Friday, March 15, the Johannes family celebrates the anniversary with reduced prices and birthday cupcakes. Pictured, from left, Kelsey, Garrett, Cindy and Kevin Johannes. Photo by Pat Hill breakfast, dinner, or a sandwich,” he said. “I learned real quick that, if you want to move something, you put a nice seasoned flour breading on it, put gravy on it, and out the door she goes.” But it was breakfast that put the zing into the smokehouse. “That turned out to be a real good deal, helps keep our prices down,” Johannes said. For a group of regulars, dubbed, “The Cowboys,” the breakfast gig is a decadesold tradition. “They come in and hash over the world issues for another day,” Johannes said. In 30 years of fluctuations in the cost-toexpenses ratio, bumps in the road include increases in the minimum wage. “It’s not just the minimum wage, it’s the workmen’s comp which went up this year,” Johannes said. “Those rates are paid on your gross
wages. All your matching payroll taxes are based on gross payroll.” As competition pops up every so often, Johannes keeps his eye on the stove. “The places that have come and gone and the ones that are still here, like Grandmother’s, Hungry Bear, Tabeguache, the owners are right in there hands-on, working it,” he said. “That’s how the independents make it.” While the mortgage is gone, things are
starting to break down and need fixing, he said. “Hopefully, I’m not on the list,” he said. While there’s no talk of retirement, Johannes is philosophical. “If the kids want to take over, it would be their choice; a restaurant mortgage is kind of like a prison sentence, 25-to-life,” he said. To celebrate the anniversary March 15, the family offers a variety of specials all day.

Free clothing distribution March 16 Group hopes to open community Clothes Closet By Norma Engelberg
nengelberg@ourcoloradonews. com Pastor Trish Sinclair of Living Streams Church has been collecting gently used clothing for years, hoping she and her friends would be able to find a permanent space in Woodland Park for The Clothes Closet where they could give clothing to families in need of help. Since no permanent location has materialized, they’ve decided not to wait.
“People need these clothes now,” said Clothes Closet manager Wendy Omi. “I work at the Woodland Park Middle School and I see kids coming to school not dressed for the cold. I asked the school if we could have a free clothes distribution in the cafeteria and they said yes.” The clothes distribution, 8 a.m.-4 p.m. March 16 at the middle school, the corner of Rampart Range Road and Kelley’s Road, is open to anyone and clothing will be on hand in all sizes from infant to adult. Only the middle school cafeteria doors will be open for this event. “This isn’t just for low-income families,” Omi said. “Times are tough for everyone. We’ve all been hit by
the downturn or maybe you’re like me; my son shoots up five inches in six months. It’s hard to keep him in clothes.” Her dream is to find a low-rent or donated building about 800-squarefeet in size that could become a permanent space for The Clothes Closet. “We could open the closet anytime we have enough volunteers to run it,” she said. “We have a lot of people, including members of the Woodland Park 4-H, interested in helping us.” For information or to donate clothing or even a Clothes Closet site, call Sinclair at 719-323-0525 or Omi at 710-290-5707.

Exostrategies springs from curiosity By Pat Hill
phill@ourcoloradonews. com If all great things begin with curiosity, the genesis of Exostrategies, Inc. is a six-year old boy watching cartoons in the early 1960s in Westchester County, N.Y. “The cartoons were interrupted because of the mercury in the Gemini spaceflights,” said Dan Heimerdinger, Ph.D. and founder of the space-architectural company based in Woodland Park. The cartoon interruption ignited Heimerdinger’s curiosity about space. He started with building model airplanes at the age of 6 and moved on to flying the real thing at age 16. “I was enraptured with aviation,” he said. In preparation for his pending career, Heimerdinger earned a degree in mechanical and aerospace engineering at Princeton. Driven to know more, in graduate school at Massachusetts Institute of Technology he started a laboratory funded by the U.S.
Air Force and NASA to test electric-rocket propulsion. At the time, electric rockets required high-powered nuclear reactors. “When Challenger blew up in 1986, all hopes for launching a nuclear reactor in space went away,” he said. “So my career path changed. But that was okay.” Path interrupted, Heimerdinger went to work for a consulting company for NASA, the Air Force and Department of Defense. Along the way, he earned a doctorate in aeronautics and astronautics. As his career soared, Heimerdinger was asked to be part of the team analyzing the Columbia space shuttle disaster in 2003. “The Columbia Accident Investigation was quite cathartic for the country,” he said. “One of the things that bothered me was just how precarious a system the space shuttle was. The investigation opened my eyes to many of the things about which I want to say `never again.’” As a result of the investigation, Heimerdinger was asked to be the co-lead on
Dan Heimerdinger, president and CEO of Exostrategies, Inc,.is recognized internationally for his expertise in the space industry. On the wall behind Heimerdinger are his Exceptional Public Service and Distinguished Public Service awards. The company is relocating from the Coldwell Banker building to the lower level of the Courier building in Woodland Park. The Courier offices are upstairs. Photos by Pat Hill an analysis of retiring the space shuttle and completing the International Space Station. “That was an impressive study because it outlined the future of NASA; we had to get away from the shuttle,” he said. “The shuttle and station are like Siamese twins connected at the head. The space station was designed around the space shuttle and the space shuttle’s justification in recent years was completion of the space station.” The analysis revealed that the support structure
took up two-thirds of NASA’s budget, Heimerdinger said. “Half of all missions that get started get cancelled,” he said. “A lot of companies want to get involved in the spacecraft and the missions.” In 2006, Heimerdinger founded Exostrategies, Inc. “Exostrategies is focused on something not sexy, not sizzly, not cool,” he said. “What makes us so special is that individuals in this company think differently than individuals in a large company.”
Providing architectural services may not be sizzly, but, for Heimerdinger, space is where the action is. “We do the logistics for commercial spacecraft that are resupplying the space station and integrate that with international logistics,” he said. “We consider ourselves space architects expert at providing services for the infrastructure associated with space operations.” Exostrategies fulfills the demand for infrastructure services for spacecraft in

Currently, Exostrategies has a contract with Honeywell whose client is the U.S. Air Force and its Satellite Control Network. “Honeywell has the contract to do development and sustainment for the control network and they do it very well,” Heimerdinger said. “They asked us to join the team in 2010 to perform services as the chief systems architect, to help develop a road map for their government customer. You don’t have long-term funds to plan for because our government is broken.” The satellite network flies 100-plus spacecraft per day with several hundred supports on a globallydistributed set of ground antennas. “It’s very complex, demanding and very important. If you don’t communicate and fly the spacecraft, they cease to exist,” he said. “And then we don’t get the weather, the communication, or the capabilities. For now, we have to evolve new capabilities required of spacecraft in five to 10 years.” Exostrategies, Inc. is scheduled to relocate from the Coldwell Banker building May 1 to the former location of the Pikes Peak Courier View, which has moved offices to the second level in the same building at 1200 E.U.S. 24 in Woodland Park. orbit. “We need to have all the global assets to communicate with those things in orbit, to be able to get the mission data to the investigators, whether at universities or private companies, whatever,” he said. “Exostrategies was founded to try to help the government figure out the best way to cost-effectively maintain these assets.”

Cancer survivor tells of fear, pain, thanksgiving By Norma Engelberg
nengelberg@ourcoloradonews.com When a Woodland Park doctor told Timm Tews he had cancer, his first thoughts were for his wife and young daughter. Tews was born in Minnesota but grew up near Chicago. He also spent 25 years in Los Angeles where he married Cynthia. “We promised each other that if we had children one of us would stay home while the other worked,” Tews said. “It’s so expensive to live in LA that we knew we would have to move to fulfill that commitment.” Their daughter, Avery, 8, didn’t come until they’d been married for 18 years. They moved to Woodland Park in 2005. “We left a lot behind in LA,” he said. “I had a hard time making friends here so we joined a church in Colorado Springs. Then we were hammered by the economic downturn. We were asking `now what?’” “What” turned out to be retroperitoneal liposarcoma. On Feb. 1, 2011, during a routine checkup, Dr. Matt Young of Woodland Park Family Medicine found a hard lump in Tews’ abdomen. “They tell me it was a one-in-million find,” Tews said. “He sent me to Colorado Springs for a CT scan. This was a Friday.” While he was driving home after the scan, Young’s office called and asked him to come in on Monday. “I knew it couldn’t be good news so I told them I’d be there in 10 minutes,” Tews said. “He told me I had a massive tumor. I remember dropping to my knees and asking `Am I going to die?’ He said, `I don’t know.’ All I could think was that after all the sacrifices we made to have our miracle child; I’m going to leave her without a dad and Cynthia alone. It was surreal. I can’t even describe how it felt.” One of Dr. Young’s partners referred Tews to a board-certified oncology surgeon and the next thing he knew he was having surgery in Denver. Dr. Shawn Young (no relation) is the director of the Comprehensive Cancer Center and specialized in retroperitoneal cancers. “I think the fact that he was board certified probably saved my life,” Tews said. “A lot of oncologists do surgery but very few of them take the time to become certified.” His cancer is rare, an orphan disease, and the tumor was 16 cm across.
Cancer survivor Timm Tews holds up a book about his and his family’s experiences with cancer compiled and printed by Caring Bridge, a social network dedicated to keeping families and loved ones connected during any type of health event. Photo by Norma Engelberg Tumors larger than 10 cm have usually metastasized (spread), Tews said. The surgeon removed the tumor and Tews’ left kidney and adrenal gland, parts of his bowel and small intestines and part of his pancreas. A week after returning home, he went back for emergency surgery to fix a leaky bowel. “No human being should have to feel that kind of pain,” he said. Surgery was followed by 25 radiation treatment sessions and 237 hours of chemotherapy. Side effects included nausea, chemoinduced memory loss called “Chemo Brain,” depression and hair loss. “Until you lose them you have no idea how important eyelashes are,” Tews said. “The slightest puff of air hurts. And nose hairs! Without them your nose runs constantly. I’m still not sure what ear hairs are for; probably so you’ll look weird when you’re 80.” During everything that happened he said there were times he had never felt so afraid and alone. “But God sent help,” he said. “First from people at our church and then from people at Avery’s school (Colorado Springs Christian School, Woodland Park). They helped with rides, meals and babysitting. They were an amazing blessing and this opened door for us into the community.” The experience taught him not to be stoic. “You have to get help,” he said. “We went to cou-

ple’s counseling. The tension was intense and I was an angry man. Counseling brought us stability.” They also joined a group at Impact Church in Colorado Springs. Tews’ new mantra is: “Today is the best day of my life; any day I live to see the sunrise is the best day of my life.” “God has given me a heart of thanksgiving,” he said. “I’m thankful for every sunrise over Pikes Peak and for everyone’s prayers. I had people on four continents praying for me.” Help also came from Caring Bridge, an online support organization; Live Strong and the American Cancer Society. “At my first (cancer society) Teller County Relay for Life, I bawled like a baby,” he said. “The next relay was different. You know that some people didn’t survive and you think `Why them and not me?’” He plans to attend this year’s Teller County Relay for Life at 7 p.m. June 14 indoors at his daughter’s school. Cynthia Tews is now working full time and Timm Tews is the stay-at-home parent. “I thought being Mr. Mom would be easy,” he said. “I’m an idiot.” For more information about Teller County’s Relay for Life, go to www.tellerrelay.org. Anyone interested in becoming an event sponsor or forming a Relay team, should contact Stacy Schubloom, event chair, at relaywp@yahoo.com or call 719-650-0505.

Authority to form committees Construction on large apartment complex to start this summer By Norma Engelberg
nengelberg@ourcoloradonews.com With the adoption of its one- and fouryear goals and actions, the next step for the Woodland Park Downtown Development Authority is to set up committees and subcommittees to get the work done. Two board members will be assigned to each committee, which includes communications, financial accountability, current projects, Main Street Program and others. Not all committees will have subcommittees but all of them will need community volunteers. “We’ll be contacting stakeholders,” authority Executive Director Brian Fleer told the authority board on March 5. Board member Gary Brovetto asked who the authority’s stakeholders are. Fleer said primary stakeholders live in or own/manage businesses within the authority’s geographical boundaries. “I would certainly consider the (Woodland Park) Chamber of Commerce and the (Pikes Peak Regional) Hospital Foundation to be stakeholders,” he said. “We’ll make a list.” Later in the meeting Woodland Park Planning Director Sally Riley announced that the plans for the 168-unit Trail Ridge Apartment project are now at the planning department for administrative review. Construction just south of Sheridan Avenue is scheduled to start this summer. The public can view the plans and make comments until March 22. This announcement brought up an-
other question about stakeholders. According to Colorado Revised Statutes 31-25-801 through 822 governing downtown development authorities, landowners and lessees in development areas can vote in authority elections. The statute defines lessee as: “the holder of a leasehold interest in real property within the district. As used in this part 8, `leasehold interest’ does not include a license or mere contract right to use real property within the district.” Fleer will get clarification on whether apartment dwellers have a “mere contract right to use real property” or if they have enough of a stake in the downtown to become qualified electors. Fleer also announced that the city is ordering banners and the plants needed for flower baskets and planted areas. Banners will be placed on light poles from McDonald’s through the city on U.S. 24 and Colo. 67. Brovetto asked why the banners always start at McDonald’s. “I’m starting to think my neighborhood isn’t part of the city,” he said. Fleer said the beautification committee can explore changes to the urban beautification boundaries. Fleer also announced that the Woodland Hardware construction project in Woodland Station continues to stay on track and the owners are still aiming at a late-2013 opening. He said nailing down the beer-garden and bowling alley/recreation center projects on two other Woodland Station lots is ongoing and some decisions on these projects must be made by the end of March.

Ace and eights Gwinn strikes out many, walks only three, allows only singles By Danny Summers
sports@ourcoloradonews.com COLORADO SPRINGS - Jeremy Gwinn’s off-season conditioning program already is paying dividends for himself and the Woodland Park High School baseball team. The lanky 6-foot-4 right-hander used an 85 mph fastball and array of off speed pitches to keep Colorado Springs Christian School batter off balance during an 8-1 Panthers season-opening victory on March 7. The ace struck out eight batters, walked three and allowed just singles in five solid innings of work. “I felt okay,” said Gwinn, who threw 82 pitches in the game played at El Pomar Youth Sports Complex. “I walked too many batters, though. I need to work on that.” Gwinn got into his only trouble in the bottom of the fourth. Leadoff hitter Jarrett McDonald reached first base on a Cody Hedges error at shortstop. He later came around to score on a double steal. “I was very pleased with the Jeremy threw,” said Woodland Park coach Cliff Richardson. “He had good command of his pitches and he went after the hitters.” Richardson plans on setting up his rotation to have Gwinn pitch the team’s biggest games. “He’s going to see a lot of good hitters and he’s going to be relied upon against those good teams,” Richardson said. Gwinn’s battery mate, senior catcher Evan Lays, paced the offense by going 2

for 2 with two walks and two RBIs. He also scored two runs and stole a base. Lays also pitched the sixth inning, striking out one, walking one and allowing a hit while throwing 12 pitches. Batting behind Lays in the cleanup hole was junior Logan Watters (2 for 4 with two runs and three stolen bases). “I’ve pretty much batted cleanup my whole life,” Watters said. “I’m pretty confident there.” The downside to batting fourth, according to Gwinn, is not seeing his favorite pitches. “I’m not seeing a lot of fastballs,” he said. “Pitchers are throwing me breaking balls. That’s okay as long as I can stay back and not get on my front foot.” Woodland Park banged out eight hits as a team. Hedges, batting in the leadoff spot, went 1 for 3 with a walk, two runs and two stolen bases. Junior second baseman Chase Fish hit ninth and was 2 for 3 with a sun scored and two stolen bases.
The Panthers stole 10 bases in all. Junior third baseman Kayden Osborn also had two steals. As well as Woodland Park played, both coaches and players felt they were a little rusty coming out of the gate. “We weren’t too aggressive at the plate,” Watters said. “We watched a lot of good pitches go by.” Woodland Park was also a sloppy on defense, committing a pair of errors. “That’s probably because we haven’t been outside much because of the weather,” Richardson said. “Most of our throwing has been in the gym. “We by no means played a complete game.” The Panthers have a busy schedule for the next two weeks. They hosted Falcon on March 12 (weather permitting) and travel to Sand Creek today, Skyline in Longmont on Friday and Canon City on Saturday. Woodland Park is not scheduled to play another home game until April 5 against Mitchell.

Panther girls track looks like a contender Shot at the title? By Danny Summers
sports@ourcoloradonews.com WOODLAND PARK - Woodland Park High School track and field coach Ron Payton is usually not one to mince his words. So when he says this might be the best girls team the school’s had in a long time, be probably should be taken seriously. “We’re feeling really good about the girls team,” Payton said. “We haven’t won a league title since 2004, and I think we have a great chance of winning (the Metro League) this year.” It was also in 2004 that the Woodland Park’s girls finished fourth in the state in Class 4A. The girls are strong in multiple events. The distance runners could make a serious run at a state medal. Leading the way is senior Megan Dillinger and junior Savannah Ebert. Other’s who will be in the mix are juniors Anne Fisher, Kelly Johnson and Kelsey Seibel, senior Danni Lopez and sophomore Lexi Harrison. “Most of these girls ran together in cross country,” Payton said. “They all seem to get along and they really enjoy competing.” Senior Gabby Ruddick is expected to make another strong run in the high jump and 100 meter high hurdles. She was third at state in the high jump in 2012 with a leap of 5-feet, 2-inches.
Woodland Park senior Gabby Ruddick finished third in the high jump at last May’s Class 4A state meet Photo by Danny Summers Senior Hannah Erickson qualified for state last season in the discus. She also is among the top shot putters in the league. Top sprinters include seniors Elsa Huber and Michaela Kratko, and junior Tehah Cil-
fuenius. Two out-of-state transfers are also expected to add depth - sophomore Alexandra Kelley and senior Lexi Price. Huber and Cilfuenius are also expected to compete well in the pole vault, along
with junior Courtney Cherico and freshman Megan Roughen. “We built two more pole vaulting boxes and have a 72-foot runway,” Payton said. “Girls in practice are getting upset they’re not getting at least eight feet.” Freshman Kelsey Moore is showing great promise in the triple jump. “She’s 80 pounds if she’s lucky and she’s only about five feet tall,” Payton said. “But she’s aggressive and she will be a good little athlete.” The boys are still a year or two away from being serious contenders, according to Payton. But they have several individuals who could turn some heads this season. Sophomore Hayden Erickson continues to shine in the shot put and has a legitimate chance of being one of the top throwers in the state among all classifications. “He’s already thrown 50 feet this year,” Payton said. “He should be competing for a medal at state this year” Senior Adam Primrose is a top triple jumper, despite competing in the event for the first time in 2012. Top discus throwers are Cody and Randy Westfall. Junior David Higgins ran a 2:03 800 at last year’s league meet. Sophomore Sam Hopfe is the squads top high jumper and triple jumper. The Panther open their season this Saturday at the Banana Belt Classic at the Colorado State University-Pueblo. The Metro League Championships are scheduled for May 9-11 at a site to be determined.

Bridge work starts on I-25, U.S. 24 Work planned for minimal traffic disruption By Norma Engelberg nengelberg@ourcoloradonews.com A Colorado Department of Transportation project upgrading numerous bridges on Interstate 25 and U.S. 24 in the Colorado Springs area began on March 3 and will continue into September. Work hours are 8 p.m.-5 a.m., Sunday through Thursday. Single and double lane closures, traffic slowing, and a 45-mph speed limit should be expected. Commuters who use I-25 in Colorado Springs might have already noticed work at
the bridge over Pine Creek north of Woodmen Road. The improvements consist of removing and replacing the expansion joints on these structures, in the following order: • Southbound I-25 over Pine Creek (north of Woodmen Road) • Southbound I-25 over Cottonwood Creek (south of Woodmen Road) • Southbound I-25 over Fontanero Street • Southbound I-25 over Uintah Street • Northbound I-25 over Uintah Street • Northbound I-25 over Fontanero Street Once the work on I-25 is completed, the project moves to the following locations on U.S. 24; the sequence of work will be determined later: • U.S. 24 over Union Pacific Railroad • U.S. 24 over Hancock Expressway
• U.S. 24 over Union Boulevard • U.S. 24 over Circle Drive • U.S. 24 over Fountain Creek According to ABCO Contracting Inc., the contractor on this $1.8 million pr0ject, the two bridges over Fountain Creek are the first bridges to the east and west of I-25. Work on the Fountain Creek Bridge on westbound U.S. 24 will likely be done in late July or early August. The bridge just east of the interstate will be completed in late August or early September. “Since expansion joints allow the bridges to expand and contract, and avoid structural damage, it’s vital that the joints are replaced periodically to extend the life of all these structures,” said CDOT Project Engineer Shane Ferguson. “Due to the amount of traffic that travels both highways, it’s an
excellent way to keep our bridges in good shape and functioning.” For continually-updated recordings about the work schedule and the project proceeds, call ABCO at 719-233-3699. Updated information on this and other state transportation projects is available at www.cotrip.org or by calling 511. Sign up for email updates at www.coloradodot. info. Updates also are available via Twitter @coloradodot and on Facebook at www. facebook.com/coloradodot. A smartphone application for I-25 traveler information, including travel speeds and times, road conditions, incidents, road work and feeds from closed-circuit television cameras and alerts, is available by texting 25827 or from an App store.
WPHS students take third at Science Olympiad Earned a chance to take game plan to state By Norma Engelberg nengelberg@ourcoloradonews.com The 15-member Woodland Park High School Science Olympiad team took third place in the South Regional Science Olympiad competition on March 2. The top 15 teams at the south regionals will join the top 15 from the north regionals
at the state championship on April 20 at the Colorado School of Mines in Golden. “Two years in a row we’ve missed qualifying for state by one place,” said high school science teacher Kendall Hovel, who along with science teacher Shannon Bird coaches the team. “Our goal this year was just making it to state. Taking third overall was a surprise.” The Science Olympiad is a combination of building events and testing, said senior Erika Furnes, a seven-year veteran of the contest. `The building events are a lot of fun,” she said. “And I like spending the whole day with my teammates.”
Teams of two or three students take on a minimum of two events, although one student, David Cruse, 17, worked on six events, including one building project. Hovel provided the following statistics of interest: • Third place out of 29 teams. • Placed in the top 10 in 17 of 23 events. • Placed in the top 5 in 10 of 23 events. • Earned four second-place medals: Chem Lab-Bryce Hickham and David Cruse, Fermi Questions-David Cruse and Erika Furnes, Rocks and MineralsMichelle Franke and Caleb Bickel and
Water Quality-Alyssa Meier and Michelle Franke. • Qualified for State Competition on April 20. Hovel added that the Woodland Park High School team wasn’t the only team at regionals with a Teller County connection. “The Homeschool (Science) team, coached by Cheryl Osteroos, … has been dominating the competition the last few years,” he stated in an email. “I believe she is from Divide. They won first at regionals last year and this year and took second at state last year.”
