County gives equipment crew dirty dose of wildfire training Employees learn how to draw fire lines to stop the spread of blazes By Mike DiFerdinando
mdiferdinando @coloradocommunitymedia.com When it comes to stopping the spread of wildfires, dirt can be as important as water. Douglas County spent a day cross-training its employees to help respond in the event of a wildfire by using bulldozers. On July 9, about a dozen certified members of the county’s heavy-equipment crew from the public works operations staff trained to hone their fire-line cutting skills. A firebreak, or fire line, is a gap in vegetation or other combustible material that acts as a barrier to slow or stop the progress of a bushfire or wildfire. Heavy machinery can be used to move dirt and sand to create a needed gap in vegetation to stop or slow the progress of a fire. The training took place at the Southern Public Works Operation facility, 11815 Spring Valley Road
in Larkspur. The classroom portion of the training was led by Lt. Patrick Richardson of Castle Rock Fire and Rescue’s Wildland Team Coordinator. “The premise of the class was to teach these guys who already know how to use this heavy machinery the finesse and the subtleties of being able to use it to create a fire line and stop and contain the spread of a fire without scaring the earth in the process,” Richardson said. “If we’re not careful with how we put out these fires, we can leave a big scar on the earth that will last for decades. These guys are great at what they do, but we have to teach them the difference between putting out a fire and repaving I-25.” The daylong training was included fire-line safety, basic fire-line construction, simulated evolution, loading equipment transports, simulated dispatches and what chain of command is expected. “Douglas County and the rest of Colorado is continuing to improve the air resources to fight fires, but any pilot will tell you, air support helps but fires are put out on the ground,” Richardson said. While many think the use of heavy machinery is Wildfire continues on Page 14
AT&T Mobility LLC has proposed to install a 50-foot cell tower, concealed inside a “clock tower” facade, in Castle Rock. The tower would be housed within a 50-by-30-foot compound at 1061 East Plum Creek Parkway, at the intersection with Fairgrounds Drive. Antennas would be mounted on the tower at a height of 46 feet above ground level. The entire AT&T compound, including the tower and the equipment shelter, would be enclosed within an 8-foot-tall vinyl white fence. Power would be routed from an existing transformer approximately 1,100 feet to the west, at the east corner of the intersection of Plum Creek Parkway and Fairgrounds Drive. AT&T has asked any interested party wishing to submit comments regarding the potential effects the proposed facility may have on any historic property to send comments to: Fairgrounds and Plum Creek Public Notice Response, c/o Partner ESI, 32498 Little Cub Road, Evergreen, CO 80439. According to Town of Castle Rock spokesperson Caroline Kipp, the town is aware of the proposal. Kipp said AT&T has asked the town what impacts the structure would have on historic properties within the town, and that is currently under review. However, Kipp said, no formal plans have been submitted for review. If AT&T decides to pursue the project, there will be public hearings associated with its zoning application.

Commissioners say goodbye to Hilbert New job in child protection beckons for Parker Republican By Mike DiFerdinando
mdiferdinando @coloradocommunitymedia.com Jack Hilbert, a commissioner in Douglas County since 2006, served at his last meeting for the county on July 8. Hilbert, who is leaving his post as Douglas County commissioner earlier than planned — having accepted a job as the Child Welfare Hotline System manager with the Colorado Department of Human Services’ Child Welfare Protection DiHilbert vision — was granted the chairmanship for his last commissioners meeting. Before hitting the gavel to bring an end to his tenure as a county commissioner, his fellow commissioners Roger Partridge, the
board chair, and Jill Repella took turns in sharing memories of their time together. “In the year-and-a half I’ve spent with you, I just want to say that you have been a real leader and a real mentor,” Partridge said. “There’s never a dull moment. You really have touched the hearts of everyone.” Repella, who was recently chosen to run alongside Bob Beauprez as the Republican candidate for lieutenant governor, said Hilbert took her under his wing and “saw someone who really cared about the community who needed a little guidance, through the complex political maze that we have to maneuver though.” “Jack and I have always had an unspoken trust,” Repella said. “I’ve always felt comfortable working with someone who I knew always had my back, and I always had his back and we would fight for each other, because we had this innate, common purpose in life. We do things for our community and we do things for other people. “Sometimes it’s hard for people to understand why we’re like that, sometimes I’m not even sure why I’m like that, it is just part of who we are, it’s in our blood. … I told Jack one
time I trust him with my life and I still believe that.” Hilbert began to tear up when his fellow commissioners presented him with a plaque. The plaque read: “More than three thousand years ago a man named Job complained to God about all his troubles and the Bible tells us that God answered. Do you give the horse its strength or clothe its neck with a flowing mane? Do you make him leap like a locust, striking terror with his proud snorting? He paused fiercely, rejoicing in his strength and charges into the fray. He laughs at fear, afraid of nothing; He does not shy away from the sword. The quiver rattles against his side, along with the flashing spear and lance. In frenzied excitement he eats up the ground. He cannot stand still when the trumpet sounds.” “You don’t know what that is to me,” Hilbert, a Parker Republican said. “It’s one of my mottos and I had no idea that they were going to capture it like this. Thank you so much. “That’s the motto at the bottom of my email. For those of us in government, I just think it’s something we have to do. It’s courage, what it amounts to. It’s the definition of
courage, and you have to show that. This will be hanging up in my new office. I really, really appreciate this.” The process to replace Hilbert in the interim began July 13 — his last official day in office. The Douglas County Republican Party has 10 days to appoint an interim replacement to serve the remaining six months of Hilbert’s term. According to Craig Steiner, chairman of the Douglas County GOP, the interim commissioner will be elected by a vote of the party’s Central Committee. A 50 percent majority is needed to win. The winner of the June 24 Republican primary, David Weaver — who is currently running unopposed for the vacated seat in November — will likely have the inside track for the interim position, Steiner said. Hilbert also withdrew from the race for Colorado House District 44 when he accepted his job with the state. The HD-44 GOP vacancy committee is close to making a decision on who will replace Hilbert, the primary victor, as the Republican candidate in November. The new candidate will face Democrat Karen Smith and Libertarian Lily Williams in the Nov. 4 general election.
Parks chief marks 30 years with county Sloan ‘knows every blade of grass,’ DougCo official says By Mike DiFerdinando mdiferdinando @coloradocommunitymedia.com In the 30 years since Curt Sloan began working for Douglas County, his department has been known as Parks and Recreation, Parks and Open Space, Parks and Trails and now Parks, Trails and Building Grounds. “It’s been a quick 30 years,” Sloan said. “I remember when I started here. I think I was the youngest guy (working for) Douglas County. That’s not the case anymore.” Sloan was honored for his three decades of service at the Board of County Commissioners meeting July 8.
“Curt is the heart of (Douglas County) Parks, Trails and Building Grounds,” said Randy Burkhardt, assistant director of the department. “Through his leadership, I would match our folks against anybody in the country. I’ve had a chance to see a lot of parks throughout the country and I think we have some of the best maintained parks and provide the best service for the citizens of Douglas County.” While Sloan’s first full-time gig with the county came in 1984, he actually started working for Douglas County in 1980 — spending weekends cleaning out the old justice center. At that time, there was one fulltime parks staff member. In 1982, Sloan got a job at the fairgrounds, where he worked with County Commissioner Carl Winkler and Dwayne Richardson of the county’s fair board. On June 1, 1984, Sloan got his first full-time job with the county’s Parks

and Recreation Department. “At that time there were two full-time parks people, the director and the parks superintendent,” Burkhardt said. “In two weeks of Curt being on staff, the superintendent resigned and Curt was promoted to full-time parks worker.” He has been a seasonal parks employee, a superintendent, a parks foreman, a parks supervisor and, finally, now manager of Parks, Trails and Building Grounds. “I have a funny feeling that you probably know every blade of grass across Douglas County personally with how meticulous you are,” Commissioner Jill Repella said. “I go into other communities, I won’t even venture to say where, and it’s heartbreaking to walk into a park that has not been taken care of and is not well-maintained. I don’t think other communities realize how much of a valued asset those facilities are to every demographic.”

Cherry Creek Trail roadblocks vanishing Arapahoe Road underpass will eliminate barrier for cyclists By Jane Reuter
jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Parker cyclist Harry Porter has twice narrowly escaped being hit by a car on Jordan Road. The busy street is among the few alternatives for north or southbound riders trying to cross Arapahoe Road. But not for much longer. By next May, an underpass will extend the Cherry Creek Regional Trail under Arapahoe Road just west of its intersection with Parker Road. The underpass and construction of a trailhead is part of the Colorado Department of Transportation’s $22 million project to replace the Arapahoe Road bridge over Cherry Creek. The Cherry Creek Trail extends from Castlewood Canyon to Cherry Creek state parks. An estimated 8,000 to 11,000 cyclists ride the trail each spring and summer, and an average 7,000 to 8,000 use it during the offseason, according to Arapahoe County Open Space officials. “It’s going to be wonderful,” Porter said. “We’ll be able to go under Arapahoe Road instead of down Jordan. Jordan is a very dangerous road for cyclists. This is going to be welcome by all the bicyclists in the area.” The wider bridge and planned new sidewalks will be safer for motorists and pedestrians, too. “This bridge was built in in 1959; it’s time to replace it,” CDOT spokeswoman Crystal Morgan said.
The underpass concludes at least 10 years of work to create a continuous trail from Parker north to Cherry Creek State Park. The Arapahoe County portion was boosted by the 2003 passage of an Arapahoe County open space sales and use tax. The current Arapahoe Road surface crossing “is not very friendly and difficult to navigate,” said Shannon Carter, Arapahoe County’s intergovernmental relations director. “As soon as they’re finished with the bridge, we’ll be putting a major trailhead right at Arapahoe Road,” Carter said. “We’re planning on having a nice opening.” The trail connection will enable ambitious riders to do a complete metro-Denver loop from the C-470/Centennial Trail to the Cherry Creek Trail to the South Platte Regional Trail back to the C-470 trail. In Douglas County, three miles of the Cherry Creek trail’s south end isn’t yet complete. That includes about a mile south starting at Scott Road in Parker. The trail ends there now, leaving riders to travel a lightly used gravel road to the next section. That portion is awaiting development of the property south of Scott Road. Another 2.5-mile section hasn’t yet been built from Colorado Highway 86 south to Castlewood Canyon. “That’s in our five-year capital development (plan),” said Douglas County Trails and Open Space director Randy Burkhardt. “We do know that’s a gap we have to fill.” Burkhardt said construction of a
The Cherry Creek Trail will extend underneath Arapahoe Road as part of a bridge replacement project. The street has long been a major barrier for cyclists traveling north. Photo by Jane Reuter planned housing development south of Scott Road must get underway before the county can build the shorter of the two remaining sections through that area. Douglas County also is still working
to obtain a permit to construct the EastWest Regional Trail from Bluffs Regional Park east underneath Interstate 25. Eventually, it also will connect to the Cherry Creek trail.
Boettcher honors four local teachers Staff Report Four Douglas County School District teachers are among 40 statewide recognized by the Boettcher Foundation for their impact on students. They include Castle View High School science teacher Roger Felch, ThunderRidge High School English teacher Susan McGuinn, and science teacher Jennifer Driessen and social studies teacher Emily Muellenberg of Highlands Ranch High School. The four were nominated by this year’s quartet of DCSD Boettcher scholars, who include CVHS’ Madeline Walden, TRHS’ Elisabeth Collins, and HRHS’ Francis Commercon and Paul Marchando. The Boettcher Foundation honored the
teachers during a July 11 awards program. Each teacher received a plaque and a $1,000 grant for educational programs or projects. Started in 1992, the Teacher Recognition Awards Program gives Boettcher scholars an opportunity to acknowledge the counselors, principals, superintendents and teachers who have had impacts on their lives. Each of the 40 2014 Boettcher recipients nominated a teacher. Boettcher scholarships cover virtually all expenses, and extend throughout a student’s college years — as long as the student maintains a 3.0 or higher grade point average. The Boettcher Foundation was founded by the Boettcher family in 1937. It funds scholarships, biomedical research, teacher training and capital grants for nonprofits.

‘No doubt we are making progress,’ president says By Vic Vela
vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com President Barack Obama told a Denver audience on July 9 that the country’s economy is better off now than when he took office five years ago, and blasted Republicans in Congress who “have blocked or voted down every serious idea to strengthen the middle class.” But Republicans shot back against a “lonely” president whose low approval ratings they believe scared off some local Democratic officeholders from attending Obama’s speech in central Denver’s Cheesman Park. The president’s speech came the night after he raised money for Democratic Sen. Mark Udall, who is in a tight re-election bid against a challenger, U.S. Rep. Cory Gardner. Udall stayed in Washington for a vote on a Cabinet nominee and did not attend the fundraiser or Obama’s speech the next day. Obama touted an economy that has produced 10 million jobs since he took office during the Great Recession in 2009, and pointed to a national unemployment rate that is at its lowest point since that year. “What I want to make sure of is, as screwed-up sometimes as Washington gets, that everybody understands that there’s progress to be made and that there’s someone here who is fighting for them, even though it can feel like the system is rigged against them,” the president said. Obama pointed to an improved housing and construction environment; an automobile industry that is making strides; and greater energy independence as key factors that are driving an economy that was in dire straits prior to him taking office. “So despite what you may here, there is no doubt we are making progress,” Obama said. “By almost every measure, we are better off than when I took office.” The president also defended recent executive actions that have irked Republicans. Obama said he has taken it upon himself to make changes to immigration policy, rising student loan debt, and pay discrepancies between men and women,
President Barack Obama talks about the economy to a crowd of supporters at Denver’s Cheesman Park on July 9. Photo by Vic Vela because the Republican-controlled House of Representatives has blocked his policy initiatives at every turn. Obama then took a shot at Republican House Speaker John Boehner for suing the president, on grounds that Obama has overstepped his authority by sidestepping Congress while taking his own action on certain policy areas. “Now, I gather that some of the Republicans in Congress are mad at me for going ahead and doing things,” Obama said. “They have a plan to sue me for taking executive actions that are within my authority, while they do nothing. “I have a better idea. They should do something rather than engage in political stunts that are a waste of time and taxpayer money; join me and let’s do some things together.” Instead of joining in, area Republicans pounced on the president’s visit to Colorado. They see Obama as a weak and unpopular president, being avoided by key Democrats running for re-election this fall. Polls show that Obama’s approval ratings are abysmal. And Republicans said it is no wonder that Democrats such as Gov. John Hickenlooper and Udall didn’t attend the president’s speech July 9. State Republican Party Chairman Ryan Call blasted Obama’s record as having
failed working families and having caused many Coloradans to lose a previously existing health care plan as a result of the Affordable Care Act — the president’s signature piece of legislation. “President Obama, Sen. Udall and Gov. Hickenlooper have had their chance to make things better, but they have failed,” Call said in an emailed statement. “Coloradans are ready to elect new leaders who will listen to the people of Colorado, and not be a rubber stamp for President Obama’s same, tired policies.” Hickenlooper’s office said the governor was not dodging the president and that he had a prior engagement that had been booked well before Obama’s speech — which was announced on July 7. The governor did get together with Obama to drink beer and play pool with him in downtown Denver the night before his speech. Udall, meanwhile, stayed in Washington to cast a vote in support of Obama’s nominee to head the Department of Housing and Urban Development — an appointment that was confirmed by the Senate with overwhelming support. The Udall campaign also shot back at Republican criticism about the senator’s absence from Obama’s events, citing a report that Gardner had attended a Republican event that was sponsored by GOP op-
erative Karl Rove during last year’s budget shutdown. “Mark’s commitment to putting his job as a senator first stands in stark contrast to Congressman Cory Gardner, whose campaign has attacked Mark for NOT skipping today’s vote, and who famously hobnobbed with Karl Rove after voting to shut down the government last fall,” said Chris Harris, a communications director for the Udall campaign. In an effort to put aside the politics of his visit, Obama said in his Denver speech that he will continue to push policies on his own in polarized Washington — policies that he believes will help “ordinary Americans.” “We’re fighting for the idea that everybody gets an opportunity no matter what you look like or where you’re from or who you love or how you grew up or what your last name is,” the president said. “America is a place where you should be able to make it if you try.”
UDALL SAYS HE WASN’T AVOIDING PRESIDENT DEMOCRATIC SEN. Mark Udall said he was not avoiding President Barack Obama when he didn’t attend Denver events involving the president last week. REPUBLICANS MOCKED Udall for not attending his own fundraiser that the president headlined on July 8 and for not showing up for an economic speech that Obama gave in central Denver the next day. INSTEAD, UDALL stayed in Washington, D.C., “to do his
job.”
“I APPRECIATE the president’s support,” Udall told reporters on July 11. “I wanted to be here but I had a job to do in Washington.” UDALL SAID he stayed in Washington to cast votes for Obama’s Housing and Urban Development secretary and for key pieces of legislation. REPUBLICANS SAID that Udall — who is running in a tight re-election bid against U.S. Rep. Cory Gardner — was making a politically strategic decision to not be seen with a president with low approval ratings. “I’LL LET the pundits talk about all of that,” Udall said. “I was in DC doing my job. Coloradans know that’s the number one focus I had. I appreciate the president’s support and, as you know, we had Vice President (Joe) Biden here last month and I was here to stand with him...”

Man’s sentence for third DUI, vehicular homicide on hold Judge rules no jail time served until conclusion of appeals proccess Staff report A Monument man’s six-year sentence for the 2012 vehicular homicide of 24-year-old military veteran Nelson Marvin Canada is currently on hold, and may be for years, if not forever. In May, a Douglas County jury found Daniel Barrett Swecker, 43, guilty of vehicular homicide, DUI and leaving the scene of an accident involving death. Douglas County Judge Vincent White then sentenced Swecker to six years in jail on July 11. Because of a rarely used statute, White ruled the defendant Swecker does not have to serve incarceration until his appellate process is over. “Although, such requests are routinely denied by trial judges — resulting in the defendant awaiting the outcome of his appeal while serving his sentence — here, the judge exercised his discretion to provide the defendant an opportunity to remain free on a previously-posted $75,000 bond pending the outcome of the multiyear appellate process,” District Attorney George Brauchler said. Even if the appellate court upholds the jury-imposed conviction several years from now, Brauchler explained, the defendant will then have the option of petitioning a new judge — who will replace the retiring White later this year — to reconsider the sentence and potentially prevent the defendant from serving any time at all. “The defendant (will have) the opportunity to confront the new judge, who will not have sat through the details of the trial and sentencing that Judge White did, with the argument that his nowsober and lawful existence during the appeals process is a justification for not serving a day of this otherwise-appropriate sentence,” Brauchler said. “Only if a future judge imposes this sentence after the conviction is upheld will the defendant be remanded to the Department of Corrections to serve his sentence. “This is not justice. A military veteran of Afghanistan and father of an infant daughter is run over and left to die
in the street by a drunk driver working on his third DUI arrest and desperate to run away from the scene. One of the men is cold in the ground for more than two years now, while one walks out of court to get back in his car and drive home to enjoy his freedom and family.” At around 2 a.m. February 25, 2012, a witness called the Castle Rock Police Department after finding a body lying in the fast lane of southbound I-25, near mile marker 183. According to police, Canada, a sober passenger in an SUV traveling southbound on I-25, demanded to the person driving the vehicle he was in that he drive instead. The driver of Canada’s vehicle stopped along the right shoulder of I-25 to switch drivers and Canada stepped outside the vehicle where he was struck by a Ford Excursion traveling at 80 mph. Canada was thrown 124 feet from the site of impact and suffered multiple traumas to his body including his head, diaphragm, and spine. Following the impact, Swecker walked away from

The first of those went into effect July 14 with the opening of a newly striped direct lane designed to keep the left-hand lane of southbound I-25 traffic from County Line Road past RidgeGate Parkway flowing without interruption. The double-white line is intended to keep drivers from moving in and out of the fast lane, allowing drivers whose destination is south of the RidgeGate exit to pass through the area more quickly. “This hopefully will minimize some of the lane jumping and back-ups caused by people getting on and off the highway,” CDOT spokeswoman Crystal Morgan said. “This is something that works

State tries new way to improve I-25 traffic Through lane leads to larger project aimed at easing flow

in other states and it’s not costing us a whole lot of money to do. “We simply do not have the funding to keep up with the growth on our roadways. Hopefully this will buy us some time as we look for additional funding and other innovative ways to provide congestion relief.” CDOT will assess the new lane’s success through August, when another I-25 construction project begins. If it saves time and improves traffic flow, they’ll not only continue it there but elsewhere. “This is the test program to see if we want to continue it through the state,” Morgan said. In August, CDOT begins a $32-million project to add an additional lane in each direction of I-25 between Lincoln and County Line. The project will continue through December 2016 and will alleviate the bottlenecks created by traffic merging onto and off of I-25 at both C-470 and Lincoln. The City of Lone Tree, Park Meadows Metro District and CDOT are among several funding partners involved in the lane-balancing project. “We’ve been involved in the lane-balance program from the very beginning; we’re very supportive of it,” Lone Tree public works director John Cotten said. “I-25 has a huge impact on the city. It’s also the lifeblood for our transportation system. We have the distinct benefit of it, and also the responsibility that goes with having really both the interstates — I-25 and C-470.”

Wisdom takes a vacation “Common sense takes a vacation” probably makes more sense, but “wisdom” just sounds so much smarter, doesn’t it? I am usually never being accused of having either — wisdom or common sense, that is — however, I do believe it is fair for me to share my exploits and adventures while on my current vacation, where wisdom and common sense took some time off right alongside of me. Almost every year since living in Colorado, I have been blessed enough to be able to bring my family back to the New Jersey beach, more commonly referred to as the Jersey Shore, to spend time reuniting with family and friends and for some wonderful beach time. So far so good, right? Here is where wisdom and common sense went right out the window, or were washed away in the tide. You see I know better, especially as I age and battle some health issues of my own, that vacation time should really be about recharging the batteries of life, getting plenty of rest and relaxation, embracing time with family and friends, and taking in the solace of the sights and sounds of the ocean. Even if I wanted to take in a light workout or two while away, that may have been sensible. Instead, what did I do? The two weeks at the Jersey Shore quickly became an assault on my body through very bad dietary choices, lack of proper sleep, and a
very large project and opportunity surfaced at work that needed too much of my attention. And all of you maintaining wisdom and common sense will know the results right? Heartburn, headaches, fatigue, stress, and missed opportunities to spend quality time with family and friends, causing even greater stress. I mean, this is my sweet spot, this is where I coach others in how to maximize goals, achieve success, and enjoy the benefits earned by working hard and smart so that vacation time is just that, vacation time. Now I know I am being hard on myself while trying to illustrate a point, but seriously, I feel like the cobbler who fixes everyone else’s footwear while walking around myself in worn and tattered shoes. I used to reward myself while on vacation, signing up for two weeks at the local gym, going to bed early, waking up before everyone else to spend quiet time on the
Market corrections are healthy Many investors are wondering when and how severe the next stock market correction will be. Those who have invested are worried, and those on the sidelines are waiting for an opportunity to buy on a dip. The summer months can be slow due to low trading volume. This may cause the equities market to remain flat, or take a breather. Third-quarter earnings season is upon us, which will make it interesting to see how this summer pans out. Some analysts are predicting a slower second half based on the fact that we were virtually reaching new market highs daily for the last four months. Others are basing their outlook on earnings and whether the lackluster growth in our economy can support the increase in stock prices. The real reason for any fluctuation is usually a combination of factors, but there is always a catalyst that triggers the inevitable. The concerns over Europe and their potential recession along with China’s disappointing exports could dampen the overall global economy, which also puts pressure on
beach in meditation and reading something inspirational before the family joined me. The solitary time spent in reflection and reading against the backdrop of the ocean, lapping waves, the aroma of salt air and suntan lotion, and sand between my toes before hitting the gym prepared me for the day, even perhaps a few indulgences and extra calories in pizza, ice cream, a few beers, and some awesome grilled food right at home. Vacation time is awesome, wisdom is wonderful, and common sense keeps us grounded as we take our well-deserved rest and relaxation in the mountains, at a beach, on a lake or river, and right at home. It’s when we practice lack of wisdom and demonstrate zero restraint in the common sense category that our vacations become more than we expected and we definitely wind up needing a vacation from our vacation. Its summertime and I would love to hear all about your stories of wisdom, or a lack of wisdom and common sense while vacationing, at gotonorton@gmail.com. When we balance our lives and treat ourselves to true rest and relaxation, it really will be a better than good week.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Udall ignores the law again
the United States. All of these moving parts create a predicament for the Federal Reserve policy as well. Their original mandate to begin raising interest rates when unemployment dropped to current levels has some investors very nervous. Chairwoman Janet Yellen has indicated the tapering of the bond purchase program could end in October, which should pull some of the steam out of the market. Perhaps we are feeling these concerns starting to price themselves into the daily market fluctuations. This quarter’s earnings reports will push the markets in all directions. In
Colorado U.S. Sen. Udall has introduced a bill called “Protect Women’s Health from Corporate Interference” which would mandate that Christian employers pay for employees contraceptive coverage even though that would violate the Religious Freedom Restoration Act. Newsflash to Senator Udall: The Supreme Court just ruled that this is against the law. Usually Udall is notoriously quiet about broken laws. For example, when Obama made illegal recess appointments to the National Labor Relations Board (which the Supreme Court just overturned), what did we hear from Udall? Silence. When Obama made some 30 odd illegal changes to Obamacare, done without the required congressional vote, again only silence from Udall. So if Udall is not spending time trying to uphold the law of the land, what is he doing? Alas, one of his emails trumpets him spending a lot of time picking a Christmas tree for the White House. How disappointing. The people of Colorado deserve better. It’s time to vote out Udall. He can’t see the forest for the trees.

Even Dr. Seuss chose not to have children Dr. Seuss said, “A person’s a person, no matter how small.” But not everyone pays attention to that. Almost every day there is another horror story that seems to top the one I just got over. Children aren’t getting any breaks. Maybe they never have. The media are on high alert like never before, and perhaps that’s only because of nanosecond technologies. Or ratings. “A report of child abuse is made every 10 seconds, and more than four children die every day as a result of child abuse,” according to www.childhelp.org. Children are being neglected, starved in closets, abducted, shot, raped or interred in shoeboxes. Or left alone in hot cars. There are men who prey on children, either for themselves or as a service to others. There may be only one thing more heinous than child prostitution: The abuse of a child by a parent. There should be a long, required, written test that has to be taken before someone is allowed to have a child. I mean it. I took one.
I realized I wouldn’t have made a very good father. I am too selfish. I guess I always thought that having a child was just about the most important thing a human being could ever do. The most meaningful one, with the highest expectations and greatest responsibilities. Then I see Dr. Drew and his impassioned panel describing another unconscionable performance by a mother, a father — or a stranger. The sad part of it is that even though the panel members are upset, they spend half of the program laughing. Some people shouldn’t be permitted to have one child, much less six. But it’s an
everlasting right, isn’t it? I think that many people have children because they think they are supposed to, even if they are off their rockers in the first place. You go to school, get a job and start a family, and do it without considering all of the ramifications. If I did have a child, I wouldn’t know how to explain why there are more than 3 million reports of child abuse in the United States every year, much less how to explain Kwame Kilpatrick, Jeffrey Dahmer, Boko Haram or “The Black Dahlia.” I would have a very hard time trying to explain the Holocaust. I’d do a bad job. I could explain the color wheel or Analytical Cubism but not My Lai. Not a chance. So it’s probably a good thing that I don’t have children. I lived next to a couple that had a childa-year, whether they needed another one or not. Mom attempted suicide. Dad committed suicide. I am sure the kids who survived are in therapy, or should be. If you have been a reader, you know that
I am not very happy-go-lucky with people, but it’s only with big people. But that doesn’t mean: Send me your children. I have also lived long enough to know that we do things that we regret, but having a child shouldn’t be one of them. Any psychological or physical hurt of a child is unpardonable. However, I won’t live long enough to see what becomes of the hundreds and hundreds of kids who are illegally crossing into America right now, but I’ll bet you that the consequences will be overwhelming. I hope their parents sent them off knowing the definition of xenophobia. While there are millions of Americans who have open hearts, there’s a lot of xenophobia going around — tons of it.

Facts, science should drive fracking debate For the past few years we’ve seen environmental activists take a greater role within Colorado communities and impose ideologically extreme agendas onto local residents. Fear mongering and distorting the facts are their specialty, and many locals don’t see what’s happening until it is too late. Alarmist claims by activist groups have led to oil and gas drilling moratoriums that are passed out of panic and based on opinion, not science. These extremists don’t care if they put people out of work and send Colorado into an economic recession. Fractivists, as they have come to be known, would have the public believe that the jury is still out on whether the process of hydraulic fracturing is safe. If you’re someone who doesn’t believe in science and still thinks the earth is flat, than this may seem like a reasonable perspective. For the rest of us, however, it is simply impossible to ignore the facts.
Fact: over one million wells have been safely fracked in the U.S. since 1947. Fracking takes place a mile below the surface and thousands of feet below Colorado’s drinking water table. Several layers of cement and steel are used to protect groundwater sources, and fracking fluid is 99.5 percent water and sand. Oil and gas companies work with engineers, wildlife biologists, geologists and environmental experts before a well is ever fracked. This is to ensure that the health and safety of the environment and local residents is protected. EPA administrator

the end you may notice not much movement due to the anticipation of these changes, combined with the slow summer months. Wise investors know that market corrections create opportunities and are important to create a solid foundation to build from. Those sitting on the sidelines waiting for an opportunity to jump in will likely never feel the temperature is just right and could continue to miss out on opportunities. The recent paltry market pull-backs we have experienced in the last three years are an indication that even with a small dip of 5 percent, many buyers waiting to get into the market are keeping a real correction (defined as 10 percent or more) from occurring. If you are sitting on the fence waiting for a decline in stock prices, just ask yourself if the markets will be higher or lower 20 years in the future. Then act accordingly. Consult your financial plan and update your goals and timeline to help you determine what assets are long-term. Then be ready as the summer months will likely give you a chance to put that money to work.

Gina McCarthy even told the Boston Globe “there is nothing inherently dangerous about fracking.” The leaders of the anti-fracking movement sweeping through Colorado don’t care about any of that. A simple Google search will show that their true intentions are actually hidden from every day Coloradans. Former Erie Mayor Joe Wilson told The Daily Camera in 2012 that he believed the town’s board of trustees was given false information on air quality before voting on a 180-day moratorium on new oil and gas development. Erie town officials ended up commissioning their own air quality studies, which proved there was no danger. As environmentalists work to ban fracking in our state, I urge voters to get all the facts before making a decision. Coloradans have the right to hold oil and gas companies accountable and make sure they’re following all the rules. This is part of the deal — you drill in our backyard, and we hold your
feet to fire. What we don’t need are roaming bands of fractivists muddying up this issue with insincere hysterics and outright lies. Colorado is host to some of the most well-educated residents in the nation. Thirty-second sound bites have rendered some of the brightest among us to believe half-truths and distortions. Please do not make this important issue one of those times where you are swayed by those that would like to see this industry shut down. Do your research and realize that while this industry no more deserves a free pass than any other, they also deserve the ability to provide energy here in America, reduce our foreign dependence, and create good, stable, well-paying jobs for Coloradans. Jeff Wasden is president of the Colorado Business Roundtable and sits on the board of Vital For Colorado, a group of business leaders that is working to promote the benefits of energy production in the State of Colorado.

Chambers face a changing climate So Business organizations fight to stay relevant By Jennifer Smith and Chris Rotar Staff writers
The front door to the community isn’t what it used to be. Newcomers to a city or town these days rarely feel the need to stop by the local chamber of commerce to pick up a map or a list of restaurants. “I think the front door to the community is now Google, or whatever your favorite search engine is,” said Dave Kilby, president and CEO of the Western Association of Chamber Executives. Meanwhile, business professionals have more options than ever when it comes to networking — long touted as a major benefit of chamber membership, but something that today can be facilitated with the click of a mouse on sites like Facebook and Meetup.com. And while economic development is still an important role of chambers, it is one they increasingly share with municipalities’ own economic development departments. Those are just a few of the challenges facing chambers of commerce, which must navigate a terrain altered by technology and evolutions in business and government. Perhaps the most daunting challenge is finding a way to remain relevant. “In this fast-paced business environment, every organization has to focus on its relevancy,” said Shiley Johnson, interim CEO at the Metro North Chamber of Commerce. “We are a collection of many businesses and industries, and the only way for us to help them remain relevant is to remain relevant ourselves.” Many chambers have learned to adapt to the new climate, but just as many haven’t. Kilby said nationally there is roughly a 50-50 split when it comes to chambers that are growing and ones that are shrinking in membership. Of the Denver metro-area chambers that responded to a May survey conducted by Colorado Community Media, the majority said they are in a growth mode. But they overwhelmingly agreed that change is coming — and is needed if the organizations are to thrive

Even before his tenure with the Centennial-based chamber, Brackney, a former Arapahoe County commissioner, looked at the organization as a vital resource. “When I was a commissioner, it was good one-stop shop to check the mood of the business community, and a place to brainstorm,” he said. “(Today) technology has opened things up — you get (millions of) hits when you Google `Denver business groups.’ ” Brackney now works for a marketing firm that provides many of the same services chambers do, but he believes chambers will survive because they are adept at adapting. His predecessor as South Metro’s leader, Brian Vogt, now the CEO of Denver Botanic Gardens, agrees and stresses the chambers’ advocacy role. Chambers, he believes, can work on the bigger picture. “It’s usually things that no business would do, that no individual organization would have the resources to do alone,” he said, noting the chamber’s influence in creating C-470 and the City of Centennial. Andrea LaRew, president of the Chamber of Commerce of Highlands Ranch, says the
advocacy role is being “the fearless voice for businesses” in the community. Using that voice to strengthen the local economy is what today’s chambers should be most focused on, said Kilby, whose organization represents professionals in 18 Western states, including Colorado. “What business are the chambers of commerce really in now? I think they’re in the solutions business,” he said during a phone interview last week from his Sacramento, Calif., office. “The problem in your town is different than the problem in my town. When we solve that problem we strengthen the local economy and make the community a better place to live.”
Worth the price?
Pam Ridler, whose 16 years of service as president of the Castle Rock Chamber of Commerce makes her one of the longest-tenured chamber leaders in the metro area, says membership fees should be considered part of a company’s financial plan. “They are an investment in your business,” she said. Depending on the size of Ridler a chamber and the level of membership a business or municipality seeks, annual dues can run anywhere from around $500 to $10,000 or more. Colleen Mello, executive director of the Greater Englewood Chamber of Commerce, says businesses often choose a chamber based on need and budget. Mello believes that small businesses often join their local chamber to help support the community. But, she said, “Larger businesses might join the larger chambers because of political reasons, like a lobbyist to represent their needs in big government.” To Kilby, that brings up a key question. “Will a majority of businesses, especially small businesses, be willing to pay enough money to fund chambers to represent their interests with the government?” he wrote in W.A.C.E.’s April newsletter. Kim Geiger does double duty as the senior vice president of Colorado National Bank and the owner of K Cherie Spa in Littleton. She believes chambers are beneficial for companies of any size.
WHAT IS A CHAMBER OF COMMERCE?
THE AMERICAN Chamber of Commerce Executives’ website (www.acce.org) defines a chamber of commerce as “an organiza- By J jsmi tion of businesses seeking to further their collective interests, while advancing their community, region, state or nation.

South Metro chamber joins call for immigration reform Let employers recruit and employees work legally, leaders say By Jennifer Smith
jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com As thousands of Central American immigrants, mostly women and children, continue to pour across the border between Mexico and the United States in what some are calling an unprecedented humanitarian crisis, chambers of commerce across the country called for immediate reform. “While politics may be in a stalemate, business leaders are more convinced than ever that something needs to be done,” Jeff Wasden, president of the Colorado Business Roundtable, said during a press conference at the South Metro Denver Chamber of Commerce in Centennial on July 9. The South Metro Chamber joined with some 60 other chambers across the country for a “Day of Action,” sponsored by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the American Farm Bureau Federation, Business Roundtable, AmericanHort, Western Growers and the National Association of Manufacturers. Meanwhile, at Cheesman Park in Denver, President Barack Obama was defending recent executive actions he’s taken that have irked Republicans, including some changes to immigration policy, “The timing couldn’t be better,” said Wasden. “The president is speaking about the need for executive privilege, but that’s not the right step. … The Congress must act.” Wasden was joined by South Metro Chamber President Bob Golden, 18th Judicial District Attorney George Brauchler and Nick

“Our objective, then, needs to be to discover how to help them engage and help them increase their business.” But a big problem chambers face, Kilby said, is an inability to communicate just how they can help businesses. Often, they fail to il-
Colglazier, Colorado Farm Bureau’s director of public policy for state affairs. First and foremost, they agree, is to secure the border and enforce current laws. “Then you can see what the workforce looks like from there,” said Wasden, a Highlands Ranch resident. They’d all like to see a way for employers to recruit migrant workers legally. Colglazier said the agricultural workers who arrive each season in Colorado are good at what they do, and they don’t necessarily want stay here permanently. He adds that without a legal and stable supply of workers, food would be left to rot in fields as farmers lose the ability to compete with imported goods. Colglazier endorsed giving such laborers three-year visas, requiring them to return to the home country at the end of that term. Brauchler, too, favors a special type of visa that allows victims of crime to remain in the country legally. He said undocumented residents are often targets, because criminal knows they won’t call the police for fear of being deported. “It’s not a golden ticket to permanent status,” he said. “… But I want the bad guys to be held accountable, and I don’t care what country they’re from to do it.” He said when laws aren’t applied uniformly, it can create divisions in diverse communities. “As that grows, the business community suffers, because people don’t feel safe to live in these communities and start businesses in these communities,” he said. Wasden called for a national e-verify system that is “effective, efficient and easy” to use for employers, and for a fix to what he called the broken visa program. lustrate the value of what they do. Don Rosier, a commissioner for Jefferson County, which is a member of two chambers, said perception is crucial. “Chambers that are viewed as not beneficial in the community typically falter and eventually fail,” he said. “Those who provide a quantifiable service to their members and the community thrive for years.” — Amy Woodward contributed to this report.

Photo by Jennifer Smith Golden, who just took the helm at the South Metro Chamber last month, noted that 40 percent of businesses started in America today were started by immigrants or their children, but only 7 percent of visas issued are work-related. “We need to push very hard for reform,” he said. Wasden said it’s not just agricultural workers who come to the U.S., but also those skilled in innovation and creativity. “The STEM fields are just as important,” he said. “That’s the kind of worker that’s helped
build this country.” There was general support for a proposal by U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman, R-Aurora, to allow undocumented children to earn citizenship by spending five years in the military. There was also a general pushback against the notion of a path to citizenship. “They don’t necessarily want it,” said Wasden. “They just want to work and be without fear of deportation. … It’s about a path to legal status versus a path to citizenship, so people can come out of the shadows and pay their fair share.”

Immigration issue sparks further division Politicians point fingers amid talk of Texas border, reform By Vic Vela
vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com A worsening child-immigration emergency prompted a blame game among Colorado politicos last week as candidates in key upcoming elections jockeyed for position on a politically dicey issue for all involved. Developments involving the thousands of children and teenagers who have migrated from Central America to the Texas border — and President Barack Obama’s request to Congress for $3.7 billion in funding to fix the crisis — once again highlighted deep divisions among elected leaders on the issue of immigration. “We need that money and we need the resources on the ground,” said Democratic Sen. Mark Udall. “I can’t imagine why anyone in the Congress wouldn’t want to support the president’s request. This should not devolve into partisan bickering.” But that’s what happens with hot-button political issues like immigration — and that was certainly the case last week. Republican Texas Gov. Rick Perry blasted the president for not joining him on a tour of the Texas border, where, since last year, tens of thousands of unaccompanied minors have been apprehended for trying to illegally cross the border. Perry’s criticism came on the heels of a lawsuit waged against Obama by congressional Republicans, led by House Speaker John Boehner, who claim that the president has overstepped his authority through his plans to take executive action on immigration issues. Obama insisted that he is closely monitoring the border crisis and dismissed Perry’s calls as “political theater.” And, during a visit to Denver last week, the president blasted congressional Republicans for suing him for trying to do something on an issue on which he says Republicans have failed to move.
“They have a plan to sue me for taking executive actions that are within my authority while they do nothing,” Obama said. “I have a better idea. They should do something rather than engage in political stunts that waste time and taxpayer money. Join me, lets do some things together.” Republican U.S. Rep. Cory Gardner, who is challenging Udall for his Senate seat, has not said whether he would vote for Obama’s funding request if it were to come up for a vote. But a Gardner spokesman said that the president has no one but himself to blame for the border emergency. “President Obama’s failure to lead has brought this to the point where we must work to solve a humanitarian crisis,” said Alex Siciliano. “Cory has said ‘It’s obviously a humanitarian and immigration crisis, but this just shows we need to look at ways to secure our border and pursue much-needed immigration reform.’ ” The Udall campaign and other Democratic operations have tried to corner Gardner on immigration issues in recent weeks. Those moves have sought to expose Gardner’s past votes on immigration in the House that they believe will hurt him in a statewide election in which many Latinos are expected to cast votes. Udall Communications Director Chris Harris called Gardner’s recent statements on immigration issues “vague” and “flowery.” But Siciliano said the congressman “has long called on congressional leadership of both parties to fix our nation’s broken immigration system.” “Immigration reform must begin with border security (which must also include a guest worker program), and other vital components such as a mandatory e-verify system, and a strong interior enforcement,” Siciliano said.
Immigration battle in CD6 Republican U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman, who represents the 6th Congressional District, said through an emailed statement that he will not support “the president’s request for additional funding unless there is a clear plan on how to stop this humanitarian crisis from getting
What’s on the horizon. Lone Tree, Colorado
worse.” Coffman is locked in a tight re-election bid against former state House Speaker Andrew Romanoff. Immigration issues are of key importance to both men, considering the large number of Latino voters in the politically divided 6th District. Coffman’s and Romanoff’s statements on the subject show just how dicey the issue is for both men. While Coffman does not support Obama’s funding request, he is also critical of his own party on the issue. “Mike is frustrated with leadership in both parties,” said Coffman campaign manager Tyler Sandberg. “He believes that Republican leadership should bring an immigration bill to the floor for debate and believes the president needs to be held accountable for (not) acting within the confines of the law.” Sandberg said that Coffman supports immigrationreform measures that secure the border, strengthen the economy and are “compassionate in keeping families together.” Romanoff has attacked Coffman on immigration issues since he first entered the race. Most recently, Romanoff blasted Coffman and other congressional Republicans for their inaction on immigration reform. That came on July 10 after the last meaningful attempt at an immigration-reform bill failed in the House. “A bipartisan majority in the U.S. Senate passed a comprehensive plan for immigration reform more than one year ago — a plan that most Americans support,” Romanoff said through an emailed statement. “Congressman Coffman has consistently refused to support the Senate bill or its House counterpart, or to demand a vote on any such plan at all. “If I were in Congress, I would be knocking on the speaker’s door every day. I would request a vote on comprehensive immigration reform, and I would sign a petition to bring a bill to the House floor.” But Romanoff has his own liabilities on immigration issues — as Coffman’s campaign is often quick to point out. Sandberg said that Romanoff has a “terrible track record on immigration,” through support of tough immigration measures he saw through as state House speaker in 2006 — a year when immigration hard-liners were successful in enacting anti-illegal immigration reforms across the nation. While the campaigns continue to duke it out, there remains real life consequences as a result of Congress’ inaction. “This is a very difficult situation,” Udall said. “These children are refugees. We shouldn’t use them as puppets.”

only needed in the case of large, quickspreading wildfires, Richardson said that is not the case. “It doesn’t take a big fire to cause a lot of damage. If you have a 4-acre fire that’s backing up to a subdivision, that small fire could
easily take out 20 homes,” he said. Heavy machinery can also be used to protect other valuable assets like water resources. Richardson said that the training was a one-off exercise for now, but he would like to see it and other readiness exercises like it become more regular. “Most counties don’t do this kind of training, so we’re ahead of the game. It’s a wonderful use of taxpayer dollars and something that the whole Front Range benefits from,” Richardson said.

impacts of drug use and resources. The 24 teens met for the first time in June. The program is an offshoot of the national nonprofit, The Partnership at Drugfree. org, which also oversees the Colorado Meth Project. While the Colorado Meth Project is known for its arresting, but very dark, messages about the dangers of methamphetamine use, Rise Above Colorado takes a different approach. “We wanted to re-create a campaign that was more aspirational and inspirational,” said program director Jonathon Judge, who said the program was sparked in part by concerns about prescription drug abuse. The campaign conducted a statewide search for volunteer middle and high school teens. “We have these really dynamic young adults that are going to be doing fantastic things over the next year,” he said. “We really want to give them the tools to create change among their peers.” Students are encouraged to coordinate fundraisers, film nights and other events aimed at raising community awareness about drug use and abuse. Much of the information will focus on research showing the damaging effects of drug use on the developing brain. The legalization of medical and recreation marijuana in Colorado also has created new challenges.

Medical marijuana “changed the conversation and perception of the drug,” Judge said. “It still is a drug. “Adults are one thing. And compared to alcohol, I think you can make some strong arguments in favor of marijuana among the adult population. But there’s no question for teens, any type of drug abuse has the potential to do lasting damage.” That’s where Shenoy and Kopit hope they can help. While both said they have no direct experience with drugs or alcohol, they know drugs are a fact of life among teenagers. “I’m exposed to drugs in the community because, sadly, they are present in my school and around my friends,” Kopit said. “I want to learn as much as I can about it so I can be an advocate for those kids. “I empathize so much. I see my life without drug use, all that I can accomplish. When kids use drugs, there are penalties to that. Your life choices change.” Shenoy’s attention was caught by a poster at school that said 85 percent of students never had tried drugs. “That meant 15 percent did,” she said. “I thought that was kind of a high number. I decided to do something about it.” She believes the campaign’s emphasis on peer outreach will open doors. “Adults can be kind of intimidating; I feel a lot of students wouldn’t admit they’re doing something to an adult,” Shenoy said. “If it’s student on student, they wouldn’t feel scared of someone turning them in.” For more information, visit www.riseaboveco.org.

As a tribute to President Barack Obama’s surprise visit to the Wazee Supper Club on July 8, the folks behind the bar have created, and are now offering, a special Presidential Punch. Comprised of vodka, lemon juice, simple syrup, mint and champagne, it’s a nottoo-political punch for hot summer days at $6 a pop. Also, at Wazee the president had pepperoni and sausage pizza and a Prost Pilsner beer with his dinner companion Gov. John Hickenlooper. Hick’s former restaurant company owns the venerable Wazee at 15th and Wazee streets.

Park visitors can eye snacking snakes Castlewood Canyon’s Sid and Nancy stage weekly show By Mike DiFerdinando mdiferdinando @coloradocommunitymedia.com Castlewood Canyon State Park is offering patrons the chance to get up close and personal with snakes. The public is invited to join Colorado Parks and Wildlife Ranger Lisa Naughton for the ongoing Snakes Alive event, a fun and exciting introduction to snakes on Sundays from 1:30 to 2:15 p.m. The park has two snakes that live in the visitor center, Sid and Nancy, and everyone is welcome to watch them eat their weekly meal. “We haven’t sexed them to know what their sexes are. The names are arbitrary. They are brother and sister bull snakes,” said Ron Claussen, president of the Friends of Castlewood Canyon State Park. The snakes came to Castlewood around 2008 when they were just weeks old, he said. “I could hold both in one hand,” Claussen recalled.
As the story goes, a neighbor of Chatfield State Park found them in his backyard and picked them up as pets and then said, “What do I do with them?” At first they were easy to care for, small and didn’t eat much, Claussen said. Park staff played with them to get them used to people and being handled. Their first home at the park was a small aquarium, but now they have their own specially designed and built enclosure in the visitor center that was constructed by Richard Brandt of Friends of Castlewood Canyon State Park. Today, Sid and Nancy are about 5 feet long. Once a week they eat large rats purchased from a local pet store. In addition to watching them eat, Sunday afternoon visitors can also pet and hold Sid and Nancy. Park naturalists at the park also host numerous guided tours, hikes and other activities throughout the summer. Programs are free; however, all vehicles entering the park must purchase a $7 daily pass or display a $70 annual state parks pass. Unless otherwise indicated, programs require reservations. For program information and reservations, call the park at 303-688-5242.
Perry’s Restaurants, a Texas-based, family-owned group of award-winning steakhouses, will open its first location in Colorado this summer in the outside portion of the Park Meadows mall. The Denver location marks the 11th steakhouse location, and its second outside Texas after launching in Chicago last November. “From our roots as a meat market, we’ve grown to focus not only on great food, but also the experience of our guests,” said Chris Perry, founder and owner of Perry’s Restaurants. Known for its selection of butcher-fresh prime beef, Perry’s is also known for its unexpected steakhouse specialty — Perry’s Famous Pork Chop, a seven-finger tall chop that is dried, cured and roasted, then caramelized and topped with Perry’s signature herb-garlic butter. Perry’s is also home to Bar 79, named after the year Perry’s was founded. For more information and reservations, go to perryssteakhouse.com.
Union Station to open
Remember when Denver’s Union Station had two pay-to-park lots flanking the historic building? Those have been long gone during the major makeover of the project, which will be formally unveiled to the public from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. July 26, extended a few weeks from the originally scheduled opening date. During the much-anticipated massive reconstruction project, parking was precious at a meter or you could opt for valet on Wynkoop at Morton’s and Venice restaurants or The Oxford Hotel on 17th. The Union Station project will take the pressure off nearby parking meters, if you’re willing to pay more than a dollar an hour and risk the meter time limit. All Denver Union Station patrons visiting one of the 13 restaurants and retailers in and around the structure may use the valet at The Crawford Hotel for $10 with a validated ticket. No validation? That’ll be $20, please. Overnight hotel guests will pay $34 per night. For more information, go to unionstationindenver.com.

Tapping into success New sports bar opens near Hilltop Road and Pine Drive in Parker By Chris Michlewicz
cmichlewicz @coloradocommunitymedia.com A new sports bar in Parker promises to bring a winning formula and a taste of the local craft brew scene. The stars aligned perfectly for Hilltop Tap House owner Bill Psyllas earlier this year. The humble beginnings stem from a casual conversation and an interconnected six-degrees-ofseparation web of opportunity: Psyllas’s son’s manager’s brother-in-law’s neighbor was selling his bar in Parker, just at the right time. “I’ve always wanted to one day open my own place,” Psyllas said. “It happened Dec. 31. I quit my job and I started looking for a bar and this place kind of showed up.” Formerly the Score Bar and Grill, Psyllas took one look and knew he could revamp the space near Hilltop Road and Pine Drive. He removed the stage, added a walk-in cooler to stock

more types of beer, and gave the place a thorough cleaning. Psyllas, 53, of Greenwood Village, also visited bars in the Parker area, taking notes on what works and what doesn’t. But he is mainly drawing on his 35 years of management experience for chains like Red Robin International and Hooters. He knows that the recipe for success is not a complicated one. It takes good food, cold beer and friendly service to attract and keep customers. The Hilltop Tap House chose a soft opening for its launch to make sure it gets things right, especially ahead of football season (the bar will have NFL Sunday Ticket). Psyllas is still making minor tweaks and ensuring the menu is correct. He also made a point of connecting with Douglas County breweries and has a variety of microbrews on tap from Hall Brewing Co., Elk Mountain Brewing and the Rockyard Brewing Company. Whatever he’s doing seems to be working. The Hilltop Tap House, 19878 Hilltop Road, has already gathered a following and received a warm welcome from nearby residents and businesses.

Tickets cost $10 in advance, $12 at the door. Tickets are available at Malley Recreation Center, 3380 S.

Call and have tickets put on will-call: 303-762-2660.
By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com What could be more appropriate for the 50th production in Englewood’s Summer Musical series than the beloved “The Sound of Music,” by Rodgers and Hammerstein — an immediate hit on Broadway in 1959, starring Mary Martin, and an award-winning film in 1965 with Julie Andrews. It has become a piece in our cultural fabric as a nation. The cast of 93 actors and actresses, ages 7 to 70, is one of the largest ever included in the program. Bill Ambron, retired Englewood High School drama teacher, has returned to direct his 33rd summer show, and Wendy Mahr is involved with her 15th show — her 11th as vocal director. Choreographer John Mackey is working on his first Englewood summer show. In 1965, EHS drama teacher Jack Fisher started a treasured tradition when he first did a Broadway show as part of his summer camp: “Little Mary Sunshine.” This year’s drama classes, rehearsals and performances are being held at Englewood Middle School’s auditorium, 300 W. Chenango Ave., Englewood, because Englewood High is under construction. “We plan to have a party next year for the 50th anniversary, when the program returns to Fisher Auditorium” at the high school, said Dan Carlson, who is assisting with technical aspects of the production. Performances will be at Englewood Middle School at 7 p.m. July 25-26 and at 2 p.m. July 27. Ashley Brown will star as Maria, the novice who becomes a governess for the motherless von Trapp children and falls in love with their father, Captain Georg von Trapp, played by David Novinger of Littleton. (His wife, Jennifer, plays Elsa Schraeder, son Preston is young Freidrich, while their younger son Carter is in the Children of Nonnberg Abbey Chorus.) The wise Mother Abbess is portrayed by Renee Leth, and Lenee Businger is Sister Berthe, Andi Owens is Sister Margaretta, and Catherine Floyd plays Sister Sophia. An additional number of nuns sing in the large ensemble, which also includes Nazis and guests at the captain’s party, at various times. Meet the charming von Trapp children: Liesl is Jordyn Mor-
Wesselman exhibit is first of its kind Denver show only two months long By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com “Beyond Pop Art: a Tom Wesselman Retrospective” is the first such comprehensive exhibit for American artist Tom Wesselman, and the Denver Art Museum exhibit offers viewers a chance to explore his processes, interests, influences and an ever-present sense of humor. His career spanned more than four decades and he was a leading figure in American Pop Art with Andy Warhol and others. The exhibit, which will only be at the DAM until Sept. 14, contains about 100 works, including sketches, drawings, preliminary maquettes, archival documents … And then, there’s “Still Life # 60,” which is more than 25 feet long and is a collection of shaped canvases, precisely painted. And “Screen Star,” which weighs more than 2,000 pounds and is created from cut-out aluminum with oil paint in brilliant colors. Enter the gallery and one is welcomed by the large (120” x 96”), smiling “Great American Nude #53,” one of an extensive series that explored women in his world. Other series explorations: smokers, landscapes, still lifes. One still life, # 35, includes Royal Crown Cola, Wonder Bread, cereals and more. His articulate widow, Claire Wesselman, laughingly recalled how they lived in a tiny apartment, and he had it filled with food samples used in this and other paintings at one point. She modeled for him at first, but said she got busy teaching and he had to hire other models. The paintings illustrate Paintings continues on Page 19

‘Company’ is wry musical look at marriage Equinox does nice job of staging musical By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe @coloradocommunitymedia.com Multi-faceted director Colin Roybal designed the set and lighting at Denver’s Bug Theater for Equinox Theatre Company’s nicely staged production of “Company,” Stephen Sondheim’s wry musical look at marriage. Seven doors in assorted soft colors are arranged between the front stage area and the back two-thirds, which also houses a 13-piece band. The doors symbolize various couples and households effectively. We meet Robert (Bobby) as his friends surprise him with a party, presents and cake on his 35th — and lots of suggestions that he settle down with the right woman soon. (He’s juggling three girlfriends happily.) Adam Shelton brings stage experience and a nice voice to the Robert role. He will probably drop a bit of open-

She gives a strong performance throughout and delivers her “Ladies Who Lunch” number especially well. “Sorry — Grateful” in Act I comes when Robert asks Harry, David and Larry, individually, if they’re glad to be married. It expresses the mixed feelings many people must experience — Sondheim really understands human nature in this show, with varied focus. Bobby’s girlfriend Marta sings the lonely “Another 100 People Get Off of the Train …” while carefree stewardess April is off to “Barcelona.” The men friends all sing about “Have I got a Girl for You” and the three girlfriends accost Bobby with “You Could Drive a Person Crazy.” Margaret Ozaki, as Jenny, does an especially funny rendition of “(I’m Not)

Wesselman’s “great admiration for drawing,” Claire continued as she walked through the show during a press preview visit. “He loved to draw,” she repeated. The couple met as students at Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art, according to a DAM publication. “From the beginning Claire was part of Wesselman’s work and served as a model for a large share of his nudes. Her insights were instrumental for the exhibition …” He is remembered for his love of sharing stories about his work and processes. He is said to have been reluctant to be identified with the Pop Art movement and continued to reinvent

himself. He revisited masters such as Cezanne and Matisse, and some of his late work reflects their influence on landscapes and figural works. Those later works painted on metal required technological expertise. The museum’s notes about him add that a little-known facet was Wesselman’s involvement in country music. He wrote more than 400 songs, including “I Love Doing Texas With You,” which was included on the soundtrack of “Brokeback Mountain.”

Schools’ chef leads multifaceted life Passion for healthy eating extends to variety of endeavors By Jane Reuter
jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Chef Jason Morse leads a double life. While many know him as the Douglas County School District’s executive chef, Morse is a savvy business owner who created and markets his own line of spices and caramels, works as a consultant to other schools, hotels, restaurants and food service entities, runs a catering business and teaches college classes. Morse founded 5280 Culinary in 2010 with his wife, Annie. He employs some parttimers, but it largely is a family-run business. The couple’s 9- and 11-year-old daughters, for instance, are the marketing team behind the names of Morse’s spices, which include “Oink,” “Little Little Lamb,” “Fishy Fishy,” and “Cluck.” His caramels and spices are featured products on the shelves of 32 Ace Hardware stores in Colorado, Wyoming and New Mexico. The Earth Salt Caramels, the result of a challenge to create a better caramel thrown down by a former co-worker, soon will be joined by bacon caramels. Morse is perfecting that recipe now. Employed 40 hours a week as a contract DCSD employee, his work for the district extends far beyond the contract’s outline. “I tend to represent the district in everything I do,” Morse said. “”That’s kind of the beauty of me being a contract employee; I can represent them everywhere I go.” And that’s a lot of places. “From a volunteer standpoint and a con-
sultant standpoint, I tend to be heavily involved in the community,” Morse said. “We do catering on the side. I teach at Metro State on Wednesday nights. I’m a huge car guy, so I do a lot of cooking involved with cars. It’s pretty common for us to be up in Wheat Ridge cooking for Porsche Club of America, or cooking at a road rally.” On a sunny late afternoon in mid-July, Morse is in Jefferson County, offering customers at the Green Mountain Ace Hardware pieces of freshly grilled chicken seasoned with his spices and rubs. In addition to the samples, the affable Morse doles out lighthearted quips to almost every passer-by, engaging even those who decline a sample in easy conversation. He compliments one man on his orange Volkswagen bus, and wishes a woman holding a fluorescent light fixture good luck on her project. One customer asks if Morse is the Douglas County chef he recently saw on 9News. Most stop to accept a sample, faces lighting with pleasure as the first bite meets their palates. Green Mountain’s Annie Schell needs one word to describe the taste of the chicken thigh Morse hands her: “Delicious!” Morse’s talent for connecting extends to Douglas County’s schoolchildren, many of whom greet the chef with hugs and high fives in school hallways and Highlands Ranch grocery stores. That makes it easy for him to choose a favorite from among his many jobs. “It all satisfies me on different levels,” he said. “But hands down, it’s the kids. Hanging out, getting hugs from the kids … to me, that’s the coolest.” Only a few years ago, Morse’s life was on a very different path. A summa cum laude
Douglas County School District Executive Chef Jason Morse shared chicken seasoned with his spice mixes with customers, among them Annie Schell, at the Green Mountain Ace Hardware July 8. Photo by Jane Reuter graduate of Johnson & Wales University, he was employed as a country club chef. His career path veered sharply in 2010, when Morse and chefs nationwide were selected by first lady Michelle Obama to participate in the Chefs Move to Schools initiative. The program is part of Michelle Obama’s campaign against childhood obesity. That year, Morse sat with 3,000 chefs on the White House lawn as part of the initiative’s kickoff. “A year after that, 220 chefs were still actively participating,” Morse said. “My opinion is I think a lot of people went into it thinking this is my new revenue stream and I’m going to make tons of money, and then realized schools didn’t have a lot of money to pay them and wanted them to do a lot of volunteering.”
Morse never looked back. “I left my country club job,” he said. “I took an enormous pay cut to come and do school lunch because I knew it was worth doing. I felt I was being called to move into school lunch and leave my mark. You hope to leave a legacy behind, to leave a mark on this world. I haven’t regretted it.” Morse’s goal is to get kids accustomed to and hooked on healthy eating early in life. To that end, he works to make nutritious food tasty and fun. “All the education we give our kids is meant to prepare them to make better decisions,” he said. “We’ve got to make it fun and exciting and interesting, and that’s where I come in. A much as I love food, I want to help kids get that excited as well.”

‘Lords of the Sky’ looks at air combat Hampton details history from World War I onward By Tom Munds
tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com Dan Hampton spent almost a year doing the research and writing needed to author his book “Lords of the Sky,” which explores the evolution of all aspects of aerial combat. Hampton, one of the most decorated pilots in Air Force history, called on his own experiences for the more modern description of air combat, then looked to those who were in the cockpits and to mountains of research for information about air combat in past eras. The 534-page book is divided into conflicts, starting with the beginning of aerial combat in World War I. Retired Lt. Col. Hampton writes in detail about individual pilots and the aircraft they flew in the widely diverse conflicts. Details range from the wingspan and construction of the aircraft to the innovations in armament that took aerial combat to the next level.
“Research was a big part of writing this book,” the author said. “I added about 300 books to my library to provide the research I needed to write this book. For personal experience, I went to the Vintage Aircraft Museum in Fort Lupton and was graciously allowed to get into the cockpit of some of the World War II and World War I planes to get a feel for them. My research included spending a lot of time talking to as many combat pilots from each era as possible.” He said the aircraft and equipment went through almost constant changes from the open cockpits of World War I to the high-tech situation of today’s fighter pilots. “While the airspeed, equipment and weapons changes, many of the basic tactics of an aerial combat dogfight remained the same,” Hampton said. “For example, the turn circle that is so much a part of a dogfight, as opposing pilots fly a circle seeking an advantage, remains a turn circle.” While the description of aircraft and information about pilots is very detailed, the author blends those details into information about the politics and history of the time. For example, Hampton explores the little-known
era of aerial combat that occurred between the world wars and how that combat helped improve aircraft, weapons and fighter pilot skills. In talking about the history of the two wars, Hampton points out that three World War II leaders, Churchill, Hitler and Mussolini, all served in the trenches in World War I. Hampton also writes about the fact that many leaders, including those in the United States, frequently refused to learn from previous experiences and thus repeated past mistakes. To further inform the reader, Hampton added a wealth of knowledge in the appendix, including a detailed explanation of the anatomy of a dogfight and the anatomy of a surface attack. There is a wealth of maps of the areas discussed in the book, plus a full glossary of terms. “Lords of the Sky” is a book that will appeal greatly to those interested in history, aviation and aerial combat. However, the history and information about the impact of the political and economic climate woven into the evolution of aircraft and aerial combat makes reading the book time well spent.

SALOME’S STARS FOR THE WEEK OF JULY 14, 2014
ARIES (Mar 21 to Apr 19) Your Aries leadership qualities can help bring order out of all that confusion, whether it’s on the job or in the home. But be careful to guide, not goad, others into following you. TAURUS (Apr 20 to May 20) Applying a more personal view to a job-linked issue could help provide better insight into those persistent problems. Use your keen Taurean logic to cut through the double-talk. GEMINI (May 21 to Jun 20) Taking some time off could be the best way to get through that seemingly endless round of demands. You’ll return refreshed and ready to tackle things from a new perspective.

CANCER (Jun 21 to Jul 22) Restoring a sagging professional relationship takes a lot of effort. By all means, state your position. But also make sure you pay close attention to the other person’s point of view. LEO (Jul 23 to Aug 22) A hot prospect intrigues the Big Cat, who is always on the prowl for a promising investment. But be careful that this “promise” has a chance of being kept. Check it out more carefully. VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22) A friend could use some of your compassion and concern. If he or she doesn’t ask for help, be sure you step up and make the first move. Also, check out a new career possibility. LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) You might have difficulty getting your opinions heard because of all the noise being made by the other side. But hang in there. Others should line up with you once they learn the facts. SCORPIO (Oct 23 to Nov 21) Offering to help a colleague is commendable. But before you commit your time and effort, check to see if that person’s situation is all that he or she has led you to believe it is. SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 to Dec 21) You soon should be seeing positive results from your recent efforts on behalf of a family member. On another matter, check that you have all the facts regarding a job assignment. CAPRICORN (Dec 22 to Jan 19) Your aspects favor closer family relationships this week. Take time for visits, whether in person, by phone, by mail or in cyberspace. Let them know how important they are to you. AQUARIUS (Jan 20 to Feb 18) A missed opportunity isn’t always a negative. Maybe your instincts are telling you not to rush into something you “thought” was worthwhile. Make time for family this weekend. PISCES (Feb 19 to Mar 20) Your sense of humor helps you get through a tricky situation. But some stick-in-the-muds might not be so willing to make the changes that you and others agree are necessary.

Enders-Stevens is woman to beat Drag racer leading the way in 2014 in first season with Elite By Jim Benton
jbenton @coloradocommunitymedia.com Erica Enders-Stevens, the Mellow Yello Pro Stock points leader, is ready for the challenge facing her at Bandimere Speedway. Enders-Stevens’ first campaign with Elite Motorsports has been a dream season heading into the July 18-20 Mopar Mile High Nationals at the Morrison drag racing facility. However, racing at Bandimere will present a couple new tests for the 30-year-old Houston native who now resides in New Orleans. “It is a challenge to race at altitude,” said Enders-Stevens. “Everything is different in our class, Pro Stock. You have to change everything to be able to run at high altitude and then from the driving aspect, the racing happens differently. The clutch is incredibly easy to push, we run a little bit slower times in mile per hour and the shift lights come at different increments. It’s challenging because it is different.” The second challenge Enders-Stevens will have to overcome is her friend Allen Johnson. Enders-Stevens, the most successful female driver in Pro Stock history, has garnered 1,116 points in 13 races this season and has a 241-point lead over the secondplace Johnson with five races remaining before the six-race Countdown to the championship. Johnson has been dominating at Bandimere, while driving his Mopar Dodge. The 2012 Pro Stock World Champion has won five of the past six races there and is the track’s two-time defending Pro Stock champion. “AJ is definitely king of the mountain,” admitted Enders-Stevens. “His team and Mark Ingersoll, his crew chief, have really got it figured out. AJ is a great friend of mine. He was a groomsman at our wedding and his wife was one of my bridesmaids. “We’re very close. If we can’t win, I’d certainly love for them to win. We joke with them all the time, `what’s the point of us even going to Denver, you’re going to win anyway.’ We are certainly going to do our best to try to knock him off the top but at the same time what they have done up there is pretty incredible.” Johnson, the 2012 Pro Stock World champion, came right to the point when asked about Enders-Stevens’ success this season. “She has been kicking our butts,” he said. “They’ve got a good team and she’s a great driver. She will be the driver to contend with at Bandimere. Hopefully we can continue to run well at Bandimere, but each year everybody seems to get a little closer.” Enders-Stevens is not a stranger to Bandimere’s quarter-mile drag strip — known on the National Hot Rod Association circuit as Thunder Mountain. “I’ve raced at Bandimere since I drove junior dragsters,” she said. “I believe 1997 or ‘98 was the first year I was there and I’ve been going there ever since. I think so highly of the Bandimere family. What they have done for our sport is pretty incredible. The facility is state of the art, the hospitality is wonderful and I look forward to coming back every year.” Enders-Stevens will be coming back this July as one of the top drivers in the competitive Pro Stock division. She has won four events this year and has qualified first or second in 12 of the 13 races leading up to Bandimere. She now has 10 career NHRA pro career victories, joining Angelle Sampey (41 in Pro Stock Motorcycle) and Shirley Muldowney (18 in Top Fuel) as the only women with double-digit pro national event wins. “Every girl racer out there just wants to be looked at as a driver and not as anything different,” Enders-Stevens said. “There are not very many of us but I always joke that
Erica Enders-Stevens, the 2014 points leader in the NHRA pro-stock drag-racing circuit celebrates an early-season win. Enders-Stevens will be a driver to watch July 18-20 at Bandimere Speedway in Morrison. Courtesy photos the car doesn’t know the difference if a man or a women is driving it. When the helmet goes on, I just think everything is equal and we’re all there to rip each other’s throats out.” Enders-Stevens has been driving like a champion in her first season with Elite Motorsport’s single-car team. She drove for Victor Cagnazzi for a majority of her professional career before moving to Elite. “When I moved to Elite Motorsports at the end of last year, it was a big change,” said Enders-Stevens. “I knew immediately that I had made the right decision. The most important piece of the puzzle is definitely people. I’ve got a tremendous team and they have my back, they are encouraging and they are awesome. They work their tails off. We have a lot of great team chemistry. That’s a huge part of our success.” “Horsepower certainly doesn’t hurt. Nick Ferri and Jake Hairston who head up our engine shop have given us really awesome engines. My crew chiefs Rick and Rickie Jones are also my chassis builders. They have the car just running awesome. There are a lot of things that go into it. Everything just feels like it has come together.” Enders-Stevens has twice driven her Chevy-powered red Camaro to national elapsed time and speed records this season. “It’s been an incredible year so far,” she said. “If you would have told me where I would be at this point of the season I would have said I hope so but I have to pinch myself. It’s surreal. I’m at a loss for words about the season we have had.” Enders-Stevens will be one of the drivers to watch at Bandimere along with Johnson, Top Fuel points leader Doug Kalitta, Funny Car frontrunner Robert Hight and Andrew Hines who tops the points in Pro Stock Motorcycle. Hines, a 3-time world champion, is a graduate of Trinidad High School. Defending champions Spencer Massey (Top Fuel), Cruz Pedregon (Funny Car) and Shawn Gann (Pro Stock Motorcycle) are other entrants for fans to follow. The annual Mopar Block Party in Golden will be from 6-8 p.m. July 17 in Golden and racing begins July 18 with sportsman and profession qualifying sessions.
Erica Enders-Stevens’ Camaro will most likely be one of the fastest cars on the track July 18-20 at Bandimere Speedway in Morrison. Enders-Stevens is the current points leader in the NHRA pro-stock drag-racing circuit.

By Mike DiFerdinando
mdiferdinando @coloradocommunitymedia.com The Douglas County Fair and Rodeo has more than just bulls and broncos to offer. One of the fastest growing rodeos in the country, this year’s event, which runs from Aug. 3-10 at the Douglas County Fair Grounds in Castle Rock, will feature everything from a Junior Livestock Sale to a Fair&Expo and even Mutton Busting. Patrons can buy premium livestock at this year’s Douglas County Junior Livestock Sale. Local youth invest their time, talents and substantial funds to raise market animals to sell at the event. Each exhibitor follows quality production practices in nutrition, health and handling of their livestock to ensure a superior meat product. Each year, community leaders, businesses and citizens help youth raise funds to continue their education by purchasing animals at this sale. “It’s a great opportunity for the leaders of the future of our industry to get some experience,” said Gary Debus, chair of the Marketing Committee for the Douglas County Fair Board. “Last year we set a record for revenue with about $225,000. It’s really a good thing for the youth.” Last year the Grand Champion Market Beef sold for $10,000, the Grand Champion Market Hog went for $7,250 and the Grand Champion Market Lamb brought in $3,250. In 2013 the Douglas County Commissioners Jack Hilbert, Jill Repella and Roger Partridge bought the Grand Champion Market Turkey for $1,700. This year you patrons can come and watch 4-H and FFA Members demonstrate on milking their goats. The milking will happen twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening. Members milk their goats and then answer any questions.
Mutton Bustin’ Mutton Bustin’ is when children imitate their rodeo heroes by riding sheep. Entries will be taken one hour before scheduled start time at the Midway information booth. The first 60 kids, ages 5 to7 and 55 pounds and under, to enter will be allowed to ride. No spurs and participants must ride forward. The top-10 scores of each Mutton Bustin’ will have the opportunity to ride at the ticketed rodeo performance later on the same day. Like professional rodeo events, time and score count, but all of these aspiring cowboys and cowgirls receive a participation ribbon. Long sleeved shirt & pants required. Boots or tennis shoes are required. No sandals or open toed shoes are allowed. A safety vest and helmet are provided and must be worn by rider. A participation waiver must be signed prior to ride.
Pie Eating Contest An old-fashioned pie eating contest will take place Saturday August 9 at 12:00 p.m. and on Sunday August 10 at 10:00 a.m. The cost is $2 per person and there are three age categories: 12 years old and under, 13-17, and 18 and up. This pie eating is sponsored by the Douglas County 4-H Foundation and all proceeds go towards youth scholarships.
Free Breakfast Sunday, enjoy a free hearty pancake and sausage breakfast courtesy of Castle Rock Bank, who also sponsors free grounds admission for the day. Enjoy musical entertainment on the midway stage, as well as the competition of the Dutch Oven Cook Off in the nearby Midway.

SPORTS ROUNDUP Kent scores playoff win
Cody Kent needed an extra hole but won the Colorado Golf Association Match Play Championship July 11 at The Heritage at Westmoor in Westminster. Kent, the 22-year-old former Douglas County golfer playing out of the Country Club at Castle Pines, defeated Jacob Allenbach of Walking Stick Golf Course with a par putt on the first extra hole, the 37th of the match. With four holes to play, Kent led by two but Allenbach rallied and the sixth lead change of the match put him ahead heading into the 36th hole. However, Allenbach bogeyed the final regulation hole, which allowed Kent, a senior golfer at the University of Tulsa, to force the playoff with a par.

Fairgrounds to host charity MMA event Sparta Combat League showcases weleterweight title bout on July 18 By Mike DiFerdinando
mdiferdinando@coloradocommunitymedia.com Five years ago Jeff and Becca Cisneros were sitting in a coffee shop when inspiration hit. “We own a supplement company (Spartan Labs) and we’re both (Mixed Martial Arts) fans and have a lot of close ties to the military and I said, `you know if we used that as a platform we could probably raise a lot of money for people by hosting an Army vs. Marines fight,” Jeff Cisneros recalled. So the Cisneros brought together a handful of current and retired military veterans who were training as fighters and hosted their first event. “It was a big success and we raised $4,000 for three wounded Iraq veterans and their families,” said Jeff. “That was a big moment because we realized that we could do something to really help people using this platform.” Since then, the organization, which began as Beatdown Promotions, has put on fights with donations benefitting local veterans. There was Beatdown Cancer where donations benefitted families struggling to make it through cancer and there was Battle of the Badges, in which donations benefitted injured police officers. In 2012 the name of the organization was changed to Sparta Combat League in an effort to brand what had become one of the fastest growing promotions in Colorado. In 2013 they began attracting professional fighters. “2013 was a breakthrough year for us,” Cisneros said. “We’re becoming one of the, if not the most, respected MMA organization in the state.” While Cisneros said he hopes that the Sparta Combat League will eventually join the ranks of well-known national organizations, he said that charity will always be a major part of their business plan. “We are the only promotion (company) to incorporate a charity into every event,” he said. “That won’t change.” The Sparta Combat League will be coming to Castle Rock again on July 18 for an event at the Douglas County Events Center. Matt Cockrell and Austin Jones will headline the fight card. “People are calling it the biggest welter-weight title fight in Colorado history,” Cisneros said. The event will benefit Mesa County Deputy Keith Chadd who is battling brain cancer. Chadd was diagnosed with brain cancer on June 5. His father-in-law searched desperately for the best tools to fight the cancer and he found it at MD Anderson Hospital in Houston. He will be starting treatment within the next couple weeks and a portion of the proceeds from the fight will go to help pay for his treatment. Doors open at 6 p.m. and the fights begin at 7 p.m. Tickets cost $25 for general admission and between $40-75 for reserved seats.

III, Tabor Center, 1200 – 17th Street, Suite 850, Denver, CO 80202 (303-5726990). APPLICATION FOR FINDING OF REASONABLE DILIGENCE FOR A CONDITIONAL WATER RIGHT in DOUGLAS COUNTY. Please direct all correspondence or inquiries regarding this matter to the attorneys for the Applicant: Carolyn F. Burr, James M. Noble WELBORN SULLIVAN MECK & TOOLEY, P.C., 1125 –17th Street, Suite 2200, Denver, Colorado 80202 Telephone: (303) 830-2500. Introduction: Applicant owns approximately 2,395.57 acres of land in Douglas County, Colorado located in portion of Sections 16, 17, 20, 21, 22, 27, 28, 29 and 33, Township 8 South, Range 68 West of the 6th P.M. in Douglas County, Colorado (the “Property”). This is a diligence application for some of the water rights decreed for use on the Property: a direct flow right and multiple storage rights conditionally decreed in Case No. 98CW471 (the “Original Decree”). A finding of diligence was entered in Case No. 06CW176 on June 3, 2008. Following entry of the diligence decree in Case No. 06CW176, on Oct. 5, 2009, the Water Court entered a decree in Consolidated Case Nos. 00CW018, 00CW111 and 00CW129 (the “Change Decree”), which changed, in some aspects, the water rights that were originally decreed in 98CW471. The Original Decree: Adjudicated a 10 cfs conditional direct flow right for the West Plum Creek Diversion; and Adjudicated two storage structures, Pond #2B and Pond #13 totaling 800 acre feet per year; and Adjudicated additional conditional uses and sources of water for Ponds #1, #2A, #3A, #3, #4, #5, #6, #7, #8, #9, #10, #11 and #12, which were originally decreed in Case No. 97CW193; and Adjudicated conditional enlargement storage rights totally 300 acre feet per year in three ponds previously decreed in Case No. 97CW193, Pond #1, Pond #2A and Pond #4. With regard to the water rights that are the subject of this diligence application, the Change Decree: Allowed the conditional storage rights decreed in Case Nos. 97CW193 and 98CW471 to be stored anywhere on the Property in ponds of any configuration, size and location so long as the total amount stored does not exceed 1,922.8 acre feet. The portion of the storage rights that is the subject of this Application is the 300 acre feet enlargement right and the 800 acre feet conditional storage right decreed in the Original Decree, both with an appropriation date of Dec. 15, 1998. Adjudicated an alternate point of diversion for the 10 cfs West Plum Creek Diversion direct flow right. These changes, which have been decreed by the Water Court since the last diligence decree was entered for the subject water rights in Case No. 06CW176, are reflected in this Application. 2.

Maximum annual diversions are limited to 60 acre feet per year. During any consecutive ten-year period, total diversions are further limited to 486 acre feet. D. Guiraud 3T Ditch (I) Date decree entered: October 18, 1889 (II) Civil Action No. (no civil action no.; original adjudication) (III) Court: Park County District Court (IV) Decreed Point of Diversion: The headgate is located on the right bank of the Middle Fork of the South Platte River in the Northeast 1/4 of Section 8, Township 11 South, Range 76 West, 6th P.M., Park County, Colorado, at a point whence the Northeast corner of the Northeast 1/4 of said section bears North 63o35' East, 1,305 feet. (V) Source: Middle Fork of the South Platte River (VI) Appropriation Date and Amount: July 1, 1967, for 20 cfs for irrigation, of which North Fork Associates/Mountain Mutual Reservoir Company own 3.297 c.f.s. (VII) Decreed Use: Irrigation E. Maddox Reservoir. The Maddox Reservoir is located in the NE1/4 SW1/4 Section 22, T. 7 S., R. 73 W., 6th P.M. in Park County, Colorado. It was adjudicated on November 11, 1971 with an appropriation date of May 31, 1905. It is decreed for municipal purposes including irrigation, domestic, fish culture and recreation with a capacity of 54.9 acre-feet. It is filled by the Maddox Reservoir Feeder map showing the location of the subdivision is attached and labeled Exhibit “A”. Many of the homes are used only parttime for vacation uses, which has resulted in maximum metered use of water from the Forest Glen Well, permit 63637-F-R, of 2.6 acre feet annually from 2008 through 2013. The Forest Glen Well is frequently out-of-priority, necessitating that it be augmented. While doing so, Forest Glen determined to obtain sufficient augmentation water so that if additional homes are built and if occupancy patterns increase, the augmentation water would be sufficient to augment the indoor uses attributable to 8.0 acre feet of annual pumping. Forest Glen’s engineers have determined that 8.0 acre feet of annual pumping will be sufficient to satisfy the indoor residential needs of the subdivision under foreseeable future growth and occupancy patterns. Outdoor uses will continue to be prohibited. 4. Consumption by nonevaporative ISDS. All houses in Forest Glen are, and shall continue to be, required to utilize nonevaporative individual sewage disposal systems (“ISDS”), more commonly referred to as septic tanks and leach fields. It is generally agreed that water treatment of indoor residential uses using nonevaporative ISDS results in consumption of no more than 10 percent of the amount so used. Thus, based on maximum annual pumping of 8.0 acre feet, 0.8 acre foot is sufficient to replace all stream depletions. 5. Augmented Structures. The structure to be augmented is a decreed well, permit no. 63637-F-R, referred to herein as the Forest Glen Well, and up to three replacement/additional wells, which Forest Glen proposes to construct at any location within the subdivision on an “if and when needed” basis. The Forest Glen Well is described as follows: A. Date decree entered: December 1, 1975. B. Case No: W-2329 C. Court: Water Division 1, Colorado D. Location: SW1/4 NW1/4 Section 3, T. 13 S., R. 71 W., 6th P.M., Section 9, T. 8 S., R. 69 W., 6th P.M., 204 feet from the West section line and 1,723 feet from the North section line. Note: this is not the decree location of the original well, but instead is the location of the current replacement well, 63637-F-R. E. Source: fractured granite tributary to Fish Creek, Twin Creek, and South Platte River. F. Appropriation date and amount: June 5, 1970, 0.033 cfs for domestic use. 6. Additional wells. Applicant also claims the right to construct up to three additional tributary wells at any location within the Forest Glen subdivision. Such wells would be for the purpose of replacing the Forest Glen Well should it fail or its output decrease, or to increase the availability of water to the Forest Glen subdivision if increased demand occurs as a result of additional home construction or increased occupancy or both. 7. Determination and reporting of pumping/depletions. Forest Glen shall meter all pumping from the

Twin Creek, and South Platte River. F. Appropriation date and amount: June 5, 1970, 0.033 cfs for domestic use. 6. Additional wells. Applicant also claims the right to construct up to three additional tributary wells at any location within the Forest Glen subdivision. Such wells would be for the purpose of replacing the Forest Glen Well should it fail or its output decrease, or to increase the availability of water to the Forest Glen subdivision if increased demand occurs as a result of additional home construction or increased occupancy or both. 7. Determination and reporting of pumping/depletions. Forest Glen shall meter all pumping from the Forest Glen well(s) and report such metered pumping to MMRC on a monthly basis. One-tenth of the pumped water is considered to be consumed. MMRC will replace such depletions no less frequently than monthly, unless the Division Engineer approves the aggregation and replacement of depletions on a less frequent basis. MMRC will relay Forest Glen’s pumping records, as well as its replacement of depletions, to the Division Engineer no less frequently than annually, or as otherwise required by the Division Engineer. 8. Replacement of summertime depletions. Replacement of summertime depletions may be made from any of the following sources. A. Guiraud 3T Ditch. During the Guiraud 3T Ditch’s historical irrigation season, when it is in priority, MMRC may cause the augmentation water attributable to the historical consumption under MMRC’s interest in the Guiraud 3T Ditch to flow down the Middle For of the South Platte River and thence down the South Platte River to its confluence with Twin Creek, from whence it will be exchanged up Twin Creek and Fish Creek to the generalized location of depletions caused by pumping the Forest Glen well(s), as set forth above. B. Nickerson No. 2 Ditch/Parmalee Ditch No. 1/Carruthers Ditch No. 2. During these ditches’ historical irrigation season, when they are in priority, MMRC may cause the augmentation water attributable to the historical consumption under MMRC’s interest in the Nickerson No. 2 Ditch/Parmalee Ditch No. 1/Carruthers Ditch No. 2 Ditch to flow down the North Fork of the South Platte River to the South Platte River, from which point it will be exchanged up the South Platte River, Twin Creek and Fish Creek to the generalized location of depletions caused by pumping the Forest Glen well(s), as set forth above. C. Lower Sacramento Creek Reservoir / Maddox Reservoir. If the above sources are not available during their historical irrigation seasons for any reason, MMRC will release water from Lower Sacramento Creek Reservoir No. 1 and/or Maddox Reservoir to replace depletions. The exchanges described in paragraphs 1.A. (for Maddox Reservoir) and 1.B. (for Lower Sacramento Reservoir) will be used to replace depletions to Fish Creek caused by Forest Glen’s water use. 9. Replacement of wintertime depletions. MMRC will release water from Lower Sacramento Creek Reservoir No. 1 and/or Maddox Reservoir to replace depletions. The exchanges described in paragraphs 1.A. (for Maddox Reservoir) and 1.B. (for Lower Sacramento Reservoir) will be used to replace depletions to Fish Creek caused by Forest Glen’s water use. 10. Replacement of transit losses. Forest Glen has purchased 0.049 acre foot of fully consumable water to replace transit loss associated with the movement of augmentation water downstream to the lower terminus of each of the exchange rights sought herein. At the time of release of augmentation water from any of the structures enumerated above, MMRC shall also replace sufficient augmentation water to replace transit loss associated with the transport of that water from the location of its release to the lower termini of the two exchanges described above. 11. Accounting. Applicant shall prepare an accounting form acceptable to the Division Engineer, and shall complete and submit such reports annually during November of each year. 12. Names and addresses of owners of land upon which structures are or will be located: Applicants.

A description of the boundaries of the Proposed District is as follows and includes generally the real property described herein: Lots 154 - 163, Sageport Filing #4 The improvements to be made, as authorized pursuant to the Act, are as follows and are collectively referred to as the “Improvements”: Construction of water main and lot services, sanitary sewer main and lot services, roadway and drainage improvements by the County, installation of natural gas mains by Black Hills Energy, and installation of electric mains by IREA on the following roadways: Freemont Drive for the existing asphalt roadway to the Gore Drive intersection, including the intersection of Freemont Drive and Gore Drive Each and every buildable lot or parcel listed below will receive one full assessment for the Improvements within the Proposed District: Lots 154 - 163, Sageport Filing #4 2. The Improvements described above shall be financed by the issuance of special assessment bonds of the County (the “Bonds”), to be paid from special assessments imposed against the real property included within the boundaries of the Proposed District and specially benefited by the construction and installation of the Improvements. The estimated total cost of constructing the Improvements, but less the amount expected to be provided by the County as described in paragraph 5 below, is $500,000.00. The method of assessment shall be as follows: Each buildable lot and parcel within the boundaries of the Proposed District shall be assessed an equal share of the total cost of the Improvements. The assessment for each buildable lot or parcel for the Improvements is estimated to be $50,000.00. The estimated costs of the Improvements exclude the costs of inspection, engineering, surveying, testing, incidentals, County administration, and general legal expenses. If such assessment is paid in installments, additional costs including statutory County Treasurer collection fees will be added to such payments. 3. Property owners assessed as set forth above will have the option of paying assessments in full, including statutory County Treasurer collection fees, within 30 days after the effective date of the final assessing resolution described below (the “Assessing Resolution”). However, all such assessments may be paid, at the election of the property owner, in ten annual installments of principal, interest and County collection fee. The first of such installments shall be due and payable not more than two years from the date of the Assessing Resolution, as shall be determined in and by the Assessing Resolution. The times of payment of installments shall be the same as the times of payment for installments of property taxes. The entire cost shall therefore be payable within ten years of the first installment date. 4. The rate of interest on unpaid and deferred installments shall be determined by the Board of County Commissioners and set forth in the Assessing Resolution. In addition, County collections fees will be charged on full payments and installment payments as State law requires. 5. As shown by the estimates previously prepared and filed with the County Clerk, the probable total cost of the Improvements in the Proposed District, including, without limitation, construction, contingency, design, administration and supervision, and legal is $570,000.00. Of said cost it is estimated that $70,000.00 will be paid by the County for survey, design, administration, and management of the Improvements. It is estimated that approximately $500,000.00 will be assessed against the benefited property within the Proposed District. Upon completion and acceptance of the Improvements or any part thereof, or as soon as the total cost thereof can be reasonably ascertained, such cost shall be apportioned to each lot or parcel of land in the Proposed District.
