Golden: Where the West rides!

$500,000

cash bond set for Marquez in fatal hit-andrun case

Ruben Marquez, the alleged driver in the fatal hit-and-run outside a Golden bar, has had his bond set at $500,000 cash only.

Marquez, 30, is facing rst-degree murder, vehicular homicide and multiple assault charges for allegedly driving a truck into a crowd of people outside e Rock Rest Lodge on Oct. 9. Adrian Ponce, 26, was killed in the incident, and at least four others were injured, including Rock Rest employees.

Bike Cruise participants saddle up for fun summertime rides

Goldenites were back in the saddle again June 27, as they donned their cowboy hats, untied their steeds

from the hitching posts, and rode o into the sunset.

Hundreds of locals saddled up for the “Cowboys & Cowgirls”-themed Golden Bike Cruise, a summertime staple that fundraises for local nonpro ts.

e event, which is the last Tuesday of the month May through September, starts at the Armory parking garage and loops through north Golden before returning downtown.

e bike cruise also features music

by a local band, Golden-based food and beer vendors, and other local sponsors.

Golden Community Commons, a subset of Calvary Church, hosts the event and partners with a di erent nonpro t each month to share revenues. For June 27, it was the Rotary Club of Golden.

Marquez appeared in court June 28, after a recent Colorado Supreme Court ruling found that courts can’t deny a defendant’s bail request, even in Class 1 felony cases. Because Colorado no longer has a death penalty, there are no longer capital o ense cases and defendants can’t be held without bond, Judge Lindsay VanGilder explained on June 28. us, the First Judicial District Attorney’s O ce and other jurisdictions are expediting bond hearings in all pending murder cases.

year for Golden Community Commons and about $600 each for five nonprofits, organizers explained.

The event also has a different theme each month, except for the September ride, which is always zombie-themed.

Organizers Peter Ewers and Jill Powers said June’s “Cowboys & Cowgirls” theme was coincidental, but saw how it aligned with Golden’s history and Old West feel.

“We are where the West lives,” Ewers said, referring to Golden’s iconic arch. “It’s a good way to harken to the past, as we enjoy today and look to the future.”

Rides can draw anywhere from 150-300 participants depending on the month and the weather. The May 30 event started with ominous clouds overhead, which Ewers and Powers said might have warded off some riders, but it ended up being a nice evening.

Overall, though, the Golden Bike Cruise is truly a homegrown event, drawing mostly locals for quality community time each summer, Ewers described. Joe and Cristin Lasser, for instance, have been bringing

their kids since 10-year-old Ezra was a baby. They’ve also started a tradition of celebrating Ayla’s birthday at the June bike cruise, and brought a cake and decorations for her fifth birthday to the June 27 event.

It also worked out nicely that Joe’s band — Derek Hall & the Possibilities — played at the June 27 event.

Joe and Cristin said they return every summer because they love biking and the event’s sense of community, along with its vendors and music.

“It’s one of our favorite events in Golden,” Joe continued.

Meanwhile, the Taylor family members rode in their inaugural bike cruise after moving to Golden last month from northern Virginia. They described how they saw a flyer in a downtown shop and decided to try it out.

The Taylors — parents Nicholas and Jordana, and children Clara, Devon and Zoe — all enjoy cycling. It was one of the reasons they moved to Golden, Nicholas described. So, they planned to participate in the summertime bike cruises as often as possible, with Jordana emphasizing how it’s an activity all of them can do together.

The next cruise on July 25 will be “Tropical Paradise”-themed. For more information, visit goldenbikecruise.com.

risk, criminal history, risk to the community, etc. According to the DA’s O ce, there is no ceiling on how high bonds can be set, with some in the millions of dollars.

Under the previous rules, Marquez was being held at the Je erson County jail without bond.

However, at the June 28 hearing, VanGilder set Marquez’s bond at $500,000 cash, with several conditions if he’s able to post it. Along with

requiring pretrial supervision and GPS tracking, Marquez can’t consume drugs or alcohol, can’t possess rearms, must surrender any passport, and isn’t allowed to return to e Rock Rest.

Additionally, Marquez must appear in-person for his arraignment at 3:30 p.m. Aug. 7. VanGilder commented how, based on discussions at previous hearings, Marquez is expected to plead not guilty, and have a twoweek trial in January.

Meanwhile, co-defendant Ernesto Avila is scheduled for a nine-day trial in late August.

Avila, 26, pleaded not guilty to a

felony accessory charge in February, and he’s scheduled for trial from Aug. 22-Sept. 1. He owns the truck involved in the hit-and-run, but Je co Sheri ’s O ce investigators believe he was a passenger when the truck hit the crowd.

Marquez’s attorneys have disputed those claims, promoting the theory that Avila was the driver.

‘My life is shattered’

Prosecutors argued for $1 million cash only bond, noting Marquez’s criminal history, including one case where his probation was revoked. VanGilder also remarked how Mar-

quez was on parole during the Oct. 9 incident and shouldn’t have been consuming alcohol.

Ponce’s family members asked VanGilder to set the highest bond possible, saying they’re completely heartbroken by Ponce’s death. His two children are now growing up without a father, and his family believed it wasn’t fair that Marquez be allowed to return to a relatively normal life when their lives have been ruined.

After hearing how Marquez hoped to make bond and see his daughter,

Goldenite Corner: Brothers competing in team roping at rodeo nationals

Brothers Gus and Hogan Kelley are keeping Golden’s Wild West traditions and their family’s rodeo prowess alive. e two recently won the Colorado State High School Rodeo Association championship in team roping and will compete at nationals July 16-22 in Gillette, Wyoming.

Gus and Hogan, 17 and 15 respectively, are sixth-generation ranchers and have been riding horses practically since they were born. ey’ve been competing both together and individually in rodeo events over the last six years, including cutting and calf roping.

eir dad — who’s also an experienced rodeo competitor — coaches them every day on team roping and other events.

On July 16, they’ll step onto the national stage alongside 1,500 other high school students from North America, including about 200 team roping duos.

But, between their experience and their brotherly rapport, they’re not nervous about showcasing their skills at nationals. At this point, team roping

is muscle memory, Gus said. e two brothers are the only Golden High School students in CSHSRA. Because 2022-23 was their rst year together at GHS, it was also their rst year competing together in high school-level rodeo events.

Gus said that made their state title all the sweeter, as they’ll only have one more year together in CSHSRA before Gus graduates.

In team roping, one person — called the header — is responsible for roping the steer’s head or horns. Once the header successfully gets a hold of the steer’s head or horns, they use their horse to turn the steer so the second person — the heeler —  can rope its

For the Kelleys, Gus is the header, which he equated to being a quarterback, as he’s responsible for “making the call” and getting his team started

Teams can be penalized for not giving the steer enough of a head start, which varies from rodeo to rodeo, or for not adequately roping the steer. Each team is assigned a steer via random draw, so the brothers always

“ ey realize what a big deal it is to get to this level,” she said.

Overall, the Kelleys hoped to see rodeo gain more notoriety and widespread popularity as a sport, with Dottie saying how it’s more common on Colorado’s Eastern Plains, and states like Texas and Wyoming. Rodeo become a unique family bonding activity, as Gus, Hogan, their younger sister, parents, and extended family members have trained together over the years.

“It’s cool to watch them bonding (through rodeo),” Dottie continued.

Golden to lower residential speed limits, enact photo radar

City Council to discuss both measures July 11, 25

Golden officials hope to make residential areas a little safer this summer by passing two separate measures focused on traffic safety. One measure, called “20 is Plenty,” would lower the default speed limit on residential streets from 25 mph to 20 mph. The other would allow the Golden Police Department to use a photo radar van for speed enforcement around the city.

Both proposals are scheduled for a first reading at the July 11 City Council meeting, with sec-

ond readings and public hearings slated for the July 25 meeting, city staff confirmed.

Golden’s councilors have been discussing “20 is Plenty” since last summer, as Denver, Boulder and other cities have implemented similar policies.

During a May 2022 City Council meeting, Councilor Don Cameron described how bodily damage sustained from a 30-mph collision is like falling from a three-story building. For a 20-mph collision, it’s closer to a 12-foot fall.

Councilors, staff, and Mobility and Transportation Advisory Board members all support lowering the default speed limits, and enacted pilot programs along Lookout Mountain Road, Peery Parkway, and South Ford Street.

Once council approves the measure, City Engineer Joseph Puhr said there will be minimal cost to implement it between crew time and repurposing city signs.

Some streets or sections of streets will see lowered speed limits, with new signs being posted

in August, staff said, adding that enforcement will begin immediately.

“It is hard to argue safety,” Police Chief Joe Harvey said, emphasizing how the faster a car is going, the more damage it’ll cause if it hits someone or something. “ … There’s no reason for cars to be going more than 20 mph (in residential areas).”

Introducing photo radar

In addition to “20 is Plenty,” City Council plans to approve language allowing GPD to do speed enforcement with photo radar.

Harvey said his department has already leased a specially equipped van, which can be moved around the city to help enforce speeds in residential areas, school zones, and construction zones. The van will cost $86,000 a year, he confirmed, and should be ready by mid-August.

Once the van is positioned in a spot, its photo radar system will identify any vehicle going 11 mph or more over the speed limit. It’ll record the vehicle’s license plate,

The maximum photo radar citation will be $40, but can be doubled to $80 if the violation was in a school zone, Harvey said.

Like a parking citation, there are no points associated against a driver’s license, and the citation isn’t reported to the state. Harvey added that recipients can opt to pay the citation or challenge it in the municipal court system.

Harvey said GPD will rotate the photo radar system around the city to enforce in areas that receive a lot of speeding complaints. He also emphasized school zone safety, saying it’ll also be frequenting Golden’s school zones.

While it’s a coincidence that Golden’s moving forward with both “20 is Plenty” and photo radar at the same time, Harvey said both will help make Golden’s streets a little safer for all users.

Idaho Springs receives $2.4 million grant toward transportation hub

Idaho Springs has received a $2.4 million federal grant that will be used for planning and designing a downtown transportation and mobility hub meant to improve safety and accessibility and address tra c impacts in the city.

“It’s the best news we ever could have hoped for,” Idaho Springs Mayor Chuck Harmon said.

Among other things, the project includes a roundabout at Exit 240 of Interstate 70, a multilevel parkings structure, and pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure, including a connection to the Clear Creek Greenway.

It will also include Idaho Springs’ Miner Street redevelopment project, formally set forth in late 2021 when the city approved a downtown plan to guide improvements for the next 15 to 20 years. e plan is also heavily in uenced by takeaways from the Miner Street Marketplace, a pedestrian mall enacted during the pandemic to support economic recovery in the city.

While o cials say the project is

vital for Idaho Springs, it will impact much of the state, given Idaho

Springs’ location along Interstate 70, a major thoroughfare.

“ is will be a really important amenity for the citizens of Colorado,” Harmon said. “ is is actually a good way to lessen the emissions from I-70 since we’re going to promote electric-vehicle charging and public transportation.”

e grant funding is available through the Department of Transportation’s Rebuilding American Infrastructure with Sustainability and Equity (RAISE) discretionary grant program, which invests in road, rail,

transit and port projects across the country, according to a news release. e November 2021 bipartisan infrastructure law increased funding for these grants.

Earlier this year, Rep. Joe Neguse wrote a letter to U.S. Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg in support of the project and the city’s grant pursuit.

“ is project would also address historic impacts related to the construction of Interstate 70 in the city,” Neguse wrote in the letter. “ e new roundabout will ease driver deceleration as they exit the high-speed interstate and enter the low-speed residential and commercial areas of downtown Idaho Springs as well as improving access to the city’s historic commercial district.”

Harmon said the grant would have been far less likely without support from the Colorado Department of Transportation and backing from o cials such as Neguse, Gov. Jared Polis, and Sens. Michael Bennet and John Hickenlooper.

e support is overwhelming, Harmon said.

“My hat’s o to sta in Idaho Springs. ey really worked hard,” he added.

Idaho Springs City Administrator Andrew Marsh previously said he expected the project to cost around $40 million with the transportation upgrades and water and sewer work included in that estimate.

is RAISE grant will help o set some of that cost, and the city has applied for a separate RAISE grant to assist with the construction costs, Harmon noted. It hopes to begin construction in about two years.

Homelessness pushes out to the Colorado foothills and Denver suburbs

In an RTD lot next to an open power outlet, they made their home. Kari Vernon and her boyfriend were living by a power box near a light pole in the green grass. ere was a pile of things including suitcases and clothes, covered by a loose tarp. But it hadn’t been raining.

“Missed the bus that last three days because only three buses that leave here in the morning and three that come here in the afternoon. So if you miss them three buses, you’re stuck here,” she said. ey had come to Evergreen to get away from the city.

“Denver, I will never stay down there,” she said.

“It’s like once the sun goes down, it’s crazy.”

Crime and drugs and alcoholism among the homeless population are a worry.

“We’ve had a lot of stu stolen. We’ve started over like seven times because all of our belongings are gone.”

All over the metro area and foothills, homelessness has been spreading out.

In Je erson County, many of the homeless are originally from the area. ere are no year round overnight shelters in Je erson County, so people either create their own shelter in places like parking lots or open spaces, or head into Denver where there is overnight shelter. But during the day, many return.

“ ey wind up coming back and they’re afraid. Because it’s too crowded. It’s overcrowded they say and there’s more crime in general,” said Karen Cowling, director of Mission Arvada at e Rising Church.

“ ey prefer to be in the environment that they’re used to in a place where they feel safer.”

Originally Mission Arvada at e Rising Church was asked by the city to help provide services to a growing homeless population. Mass transportation helps people get back and forth from the city and is part of what made Arvada attractive to people experiencing homelessness.

“ e transit is right here. e parks and open space areas and restaurants and it’s a desirable place for people to be homeless and otherwise,” said Cowling. More and more people are seeking refuge here and in places like Lakewood and even Evergreen.

“For the last ve years I would say, people are coming out into the suburbs,” said Cowling.

Vernon and her boyfriend moved from Florida where crime was a problem as well. “My older son moved here and he was like Mom come on and check it out,” she explained. He lives in Broom eld where he is concerned about his mother’s situation.

“He worries about me all the time,” said Vernon. “His wife’s like, he worries about you from the moment he wakes up until he goes to sleep.”

Now with more family news, she says she is thinking about nding housing and work.

“My youngest son’s going to have a baby. I just want a normal life back.”

In the past she has worked doing housekeeping and as a 7-11 clerk, which she says was her favorite job. With the help of Evergreen Christian Outreach she now has ID again.

“ ey got my ID for me so now I can get a job. Because I lost all my birth certi cate and everything but now I’m slowly getting it all back.” Vernon and her boyfriend, who does not come out of the shelter to talk, plan on getting to the bus in the morning to go down to Denver for services.

In Arvada homeless people collect in the area around the train station. Some are an agitation to businesses. ose with mental health problems can be intimidating and hard to shoo away. Cowling says the cost of housing and need for services leaves people on the streets who should not be is costly in other ways.

“Our economy and just the state of

our situation in terms of not having enough mental health services and not having enough rehab and drug and alcohol treatment.”

Recently the mission has been under pressure to move from Olde Town due to a belief that o ering services attracts a homeless population, which has increased in recent years.

“We are trying to advocate for our clients that are experiencing homelessness, but we are also trying to work with the city and the community and make sure that our area is clean and orderly. So we’re kind of the balance.”

Clients served by the mission have to follow rules. Not all do and are banned. Not providing assistance she says would mean only more people without services, not fewer people dealing with homelessness. “Oh, no, no, no, no, absolutely not.”

On the morning after talking about their situation at the Evergreen Park and Ride lot Kari Vernon and her boyfriend slept in, unwilling to come out of their enclosure to talk. e 7:40 bus came and went. ey were still there.

Colorado Community Media and CBS News Colorado share stories as part of a newsgathering partnership.

Many adults with disabilities have few chances to travel. A group of them from Colorado went 5,000 miles for the Special Olympics.

Growing up in a world that often sees di erences as de ciencies, Shannon Brennan long ago learned to question the things that set her apart from others rather than embrace them.

For Brennan, 37, those di erences play out in the way she learns. e two halves of her brain don’t always communicate with each other, she said, so she sometimes struggles to understand speech.

Brennan was diagnosed with a genetic condition known as Fragile X syndrome at age 12, and is sometimes anxious and can quickly become overstimulated in large crowds or when bombarded by loud noises.

But last week, when Brennan found herself more than 5,000 miles away from her home in Aurora meeting people who navigate the world with their own set of special needs, she began to look at her di erences, well, di erently. “I just have challenges, but (my body) ain’t broken,” she said. “It’s ne. It just works in a di erent way. Just because it works di erently

than yours doesn’t mean it’s broken or damaged or anything.”

unteer at the 2023 Special Olympics. e Denver-based nonpro t shepherds groups of adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities, along with their typi-

cal peers who want to learn how to be better allies, on excursions across the country and world. e getaways give adults with disabilities an opportunity to branch out of their everyday lives — much of which are often guided by other people like parents and job coaches — to explore new cultures and learn more about themselves.

ose kinds of treks can be rare for people with disabilities because so much of the world falls short in accommodating their needs, said Kendall Hagar, interim executive director of e Wayfaring Band.

“Every human being should belong in our world,” said Hagar, who has attention-de cit/hyperactivity disorder. “And we believe that folks with disabilities are not limited in their capacity to enjoy the full human experience and all of the things that that entails.”

e nonpro t, which has been whisking adults with disabilities to all kinds of destinations for nearly 11 years, also pushes for those individuals to be treated as the adults they are — rather than children.

that infantilization by doing very adult things,” Hagar said.

On past trips, that has included clinking drinks at biker bars and attending concerts. In Berlin, band members tried schnitzel for the rst time, shared a meter-long tray full of beers, checked out a marketplace, and visited both the Anne Frank Center and the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe.

ey also watched Special Olympics athletes compete in swimming, soccer, cycling and equestrian events and made new friends from all over the world as they volunteered at the Games, welcoming attendees, o ering directions to spectators and energizing crowds.

Brennan, who was visiting Germany for the rst time, initially clammed up while thinking about introducing herself to volunteers and athletes from other countries. But with help from another band member, she overcame her hesitation and struck up conversations with strangers, exchanging ashy commemorative pins with many of them.

At the start of the Games, each team of athletes received pins decorated to re ect their country,

with the idea that they would be traded with other teams, carrying on a tradition that dates back to the 1920s. e Wayfaring Band brought their own pins, breaking through language barriers as they approached athletes and gestured at pins to swap.

Justin Pressel, another band member, gathered 13 pins, which he fastened to a lanyard, and in his time in Berlin got to know people from Israel, Japan and North Macedonia, among other places.

Pressel, 32, previously traveled to New Mexico and Seattle with e Wayfaring Band but had never ventured out of the country. His voyage to Berlin with 11 other band members marked one of his biggest steps beyond his comfort zone.

“I’m used to being alone at home playing video games,” said Pressel, who lives in Denver and also works full time at King Soopers.

He was in awe over an opening ceremony that featured lively, acrobatic performances and a parade of at least 170 countries, and he became mesmerized by soccer matches that were punctuated with slide tackles and collisions.

Pressel, who has cerebral palsy, had fun getting to know his fellow travelers and learning about their di erences — all while banding together with volunteers, fans and athletes at the Games to cheer

everyone on.

“Even though they’re rooting for (their) country, everyone’s the same,” Pressel said. “ ey’re all for the Special Olympics. at’s what’s great.”

Brennan’s trip overseas stopped before it even started. A three-anda-half month battle for an updated passport ended with her leaving for Berlin the day after she was supposed to y out with her bandmates. After the U.S. Department of State returned the initial application she mailed in, citing that it was incomplete without much more explanation, she struggled to nd an available appointment to renew her passport in person. She eventually secured an appointment in Kiowa, 45 minutes from her home, and paid an extra fee to expedite shipping.

Brennan waited a few more weeks while her passport was being processed and couldn’t get an answer from the passport agency about when she would receive her passport. e week she was slated to leave, she called U.S. Sen. Michael Bennet’s o ce to help rush the delivery of her passport. After more waiting and more frustration, she nally received her passport the day of her ight but not in time to catch it.

“It’s confusing,” Brennan said. “It’s really hard. Anybody but espe-

cially anybody who has a disability or some kind of di erence, it’s really, really di cult to understand.”

at hiccup was the rst of several the group encountered leading up to and during their time abroad as they noticed and experienced accessibility challenges at the Special Olympics — the one place designed speci cally for people with disabilities.

eir concerns started with ashing lights and loud music during the Games’ opening ceremony — special e ects that can be harmful to some people with sensory challenges. Band members also noted that bathroom spaces were not wide enough to t a wheelchair while some wheelchair-accessible ramps were often far from the areas where spectators led in to watch events.

And in Berlin, a steep set of stairs down to the subway and narrow sidewalks created additional hurdles for people who rely on wheelchairs.

“Accessibility is hard,” Hagar said, “and it takes work. And even folks that are doing the work still have learning to do. And I can’t imagine how much work it was to put on this massive global event and the logistics that it involved, and there’s always room for improvement.”

SEE TRAVEL, P23

Sometimes we just have to laugh at ourselves, right? Or is it that sometimes we just have to laugh with ourselves? I am not laughing at you; I am laughing with you kind of thinking as we look in the mirror. My laughing at myself moment came the other day while I was traveling. I had boarded my flight and was checking my email on my phone before we took off.

As I tried loading my email app, it took about 8 seconds. And in those 8 seconds I became frustrated and thought why is this taking so long? Cue the laughing at myself.

Each year as technology advances our need for speed seems to advance with it. We want information and we want it now. We not only want it now, but we also expect the information to be fed to us before we even have to think about it, we train the technology to understand what we like and want before we ever even have to search for it, we simply turn on our device and lo and behold there

In a recent meeting with a partner, they were discussing how their technology could serve up information in real time, measuring response times in milliseconds. Again, we have become a culture that has a need for speed, instant gratifica-

As I came across a snail the other day, I watched it move slowly across the pavement. And I found myself fascinated by the slow and deliberate pace of the snail. So in that moment I reflected on my own need for speed. Although I can’t slow down advancements in technology that are designed to speed things up, nor can I or should I worry about others and their need for speed, I can decide when it’s time to slow things down for

myself. Can my walks along the shoreline be a little slower so I can appreciate the sounds of the waves lapping against the sand, taking in the salt air, and maybe finding a unique shell or piece of sea glass? Can my hikes in the mountains be slowed down just a bit so I can take in the wildflowers, watch the streams rushing down the mountainside, or look out at the amazing vistas from the openings through the trees?

We are definitely a society on the go. We want the speed limits to be higher, our flights to get us to our destination faster. We want our meals delivered to our homes or tables in unreasonably fast times. We expect the elevator to show up as soon as we press the button. It’s the pace of the race these days that we are trying to keep up with and the pace is getting quicker and quicker each day.

I thought about the snail again. And as I did, I was reminded that moving at a snail’s pace is okay sometimes. I enjoy a slow brewing pot of coffee as it fills the

kitchen with that beautiful coffee aroma. I love reading and spending time slowly letting the story develop and not racing to finish the book. I find it so much more meaningful to pray slowly as it connects me at a deeper level to those I am praying for and to my faith. And when I can slow down enough before rushing out of the house to write notes to my family and leave them around the house, it makes everyone feel so loved and appreciated. Is it time to slow down a bit for you? Are you running a race that just gets faster and faster all the time? I would love to hear your story at gotonorton@gmail. com, and when we can move at a snail’s pace sometimes, it really will be a better than good life.

Mountains in wilderness don’t need hardware

We humans want the most out of life, so why shouldn’t we push to get more of what we want?

at’s what some rock climbers must be thinking. ey want to enter designated Wilderness in order to drill permanent anchors into wilderness rock faces, turning these wild places into sport-climbing walls.

When the Wilderness Act became law in 1964, it put wildlife and wild lands rst, decreeing that these special places should be left alone as much as possible. is unusual approach codi ed humility, arguing that some wild places, rich in wildlife and natural beauty, needed as much protection as possible.

So far, the Act protects less than 3% of what Congress called “untrammeled” public land in the Lower 48. ese are unique places free of roads and vehicles and most manmade intrusions that a ict the rest of America.

e Wilderness Act also prohibits “installations,” but to get around this, a group called the Access Fund has persuaded friends in Congress to introduce a bill that would, in e ect, amend the Wilderness Act.

Yet over 40 conservation groups, from small grassroots greens to large national organizations, have written Congress to oppose the bill. Wilderness is not about human convenience, they say, it’s about safeguarding the tiny pockets of wild landscape we’ve allowed to remain.

e PARC Act directs federal agencies to recognize the legal use of xed anchors in Wilderness, a backdoor approach to statutory amendment that even the U.S. Forest Service and Department of Interior oppose.

In a hearing on the bill, the Forest Service stated that “creating new de nitions for allowable uses in wilderness areas, as (the PARC Act) would do, has the practical e ect of amending the Wilderness Act. (It) could have seri-

Beyond the permanent visual evidence of human development, xed anchors would attract more climbers looking for bolted routes and concentrate use in sensitive habitats. at impact is harmful enough, but the bill also sends a loud message: Recreation interests are more important than preserving the small bit of Wilderness we have left.

What’s coming next is clear. Some mountain bikers, led by the Sustainable Trails Coalition, have introduced legislation to exempt mountain bikes from the prohibition on mechanized travel in Wilderness.

en there are the trail runners who want exemptions from the ban on commercial trail racing. Drone pilots and hang-gliders also want their forms of aircraft exempted.

What’s confounding is that climbing is already allowed in Wilderness. is bill is simply about using xed bolts to climb as opposed to using removable protection. at’s apparently confusing to some people.

But now, even some climbers are pushing back. e Montana writer George Ochenski, known for his decades of rst ascents in Wilderness, calls the Tribune’s position “Total bullsh*t.” In an e-mail, he said bolting routes “bring ‘sport climbing’ into the wilderness when it belongs in the gym or on non-wilderness rocks.”

For decades, many climbers have advocated for a marriage of climbing and wilderness ethics. In Chouinard Equipment’s rst catalog, Patagonia founder and legendary climber Yvon Chouinard called for an ethic of “clean climbing” that comes from “the exercise of moral restraint and individual responsibility.”

We don’t like to think of recreation as consumptive, but it consumes the diminishing resource of space. And protected space is in short supply as stressors on the natural world increase. With every “user group” demand, the refuge for wild animals grows smaller. Meanwhile, a startling number of our animal counterparts have faded into extinction.

Sci-Fi Film series is back for another year of education, entertainment

Sci-Fi films are some of the most innovative and impactful to ever be put on screen — just look at the way films like “2001: A Space Odyssey,” Star Wars, “The Matrix” have inspired and directed popular culture. Few genres capture audiences’ imagination like sci-fi.

This at least partly explains why Denver Film and the Denver Museum of Nature & Science’sannual Sci-Fi Film Series has become one of the signature events of the year.

“After 13 years, this is Denver Film’s most popular series,” said said Vincent Piturro, Ph.D., professor of film and media studies at MSU Denver, who co-presents at each screening. “We want audiences to come away with the idea that art and science can work together — they’re not at odds.”

This year’s series kicks off on Wednesday, July 12 with the throwback classic,“THEM!,” then moves to “Everything Everywhere All At Once,” on July 19, followed by“Nope” on July 26, Brendan Fraser’s“The Mummy” on Aug. 2, “Beyond the Infinite Two Minutes” on Aug. 9 and“Little Shop of Horrors” on Aug. 16. Screenings will be held at the Sie Film Center, 2510 E. Colfax Ave. in Denver, and the Denver Museum of Nature & Science’s new Infinity Theater, 2001 Colorado Blvd.

“For our series, science fiction is very different than what many people might think,” Piturro said. “Many people hear sci-fi and think aliens and outer space, but we go beyond far beyond that.”

According to provided information, each screening begins at 6:30 p.m. and is followed by a discussion led by Piturro, featuring a range of experts in different fields, including zoology, paleobotany and anthropology.

“The scientists come up with the list of films and we work to get diverse movies from all over the world,” Piturro

Regardless of how familiar an audience member is with any particular film, they’re going to come away from one of these presentations learning something new. And that was the goal when Piturro and the late Brit Withey, Denver Film artistic director, first came up with the idea.

“The essence of this goes back to the original conversation he and I had about presenting science and art together in a digestible package for the audience,” Piturro said. “People can learn science from a movie and a movie can inspire science.”

How to take up running, from starting out to marathons

Roxane Geisler started running in high school as a new challenge — somebody told her she should run cross country.

“I didn’t even know how to run a mile,” said Geisler, who is now president of the Highlands Ranch Running Club.

Getting into running “just gradually happened for me,” said Geisler, who is 54. “Suddenly, I was like, ‘Oh, I really do enjoy it, and I love getting out and seeing the views.’”

For people who are inexperienced at running but want to improve, it’s key not to be intimidated, Geisler said.

“A lot of people think, ‘Oh, I can’t join the running club because I’m not a real runner.’ And that’s totally silly,” Geisler said. “If you run, you’re a runner.”

Ryan Marker, an assistant professor who teaches exercise physiology at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora, said it’s important for beginners to start slow. “Setting appropriate expectations, I think, is really important,” Geisler said. “So if someone’s never run before, you’re not going to get o the couch and do a marathon.”

But with the right plan, even beginners can work their way up to a marathon within months. (Here’s a tip: You don’t have to run the whole thing.)

Here’s some advice on how to start running or take your training to the next level.

Part of the group

One thing that can help you get into running: nding a group of runners to keep you moving.

When Geisler moved to Highlands Ranch in 2003, she noted how many people were out running by themselves.

She learned about the Highlands Ranch Race Series, and part of the idea behind starting her running club was to get some runners to train together.

“It makes running so much easier, training so much easier, when you have people to train with,” Geisler said.

And the people she’s met through her club “were a tremendous in uence on me — just people who really push themselves and try to get the best out of themselves,” said Geisler, who has run marathons.

e club provides a communal atmosphere:

LONG RUN

Runners don’t just work out but also make connections in her group. “De nitely lots of friendships have formed, and even a few people have met their spouses,” Geisler said.

Starting out

For beginners who are getting over the initial hump of starting to run, it’s important not to bite o more than you can chew, said Marker, who works in the department of physical medicine and rehabilitation at the CU Anschutz Medical Campus.

“If you’re just starting, even running for a mile, say — or even less than that — is meaningful,” Marker said.

Another strategy, he said, is to remember you don’t have to run consistently for a whole workout. “Run for ve minutes and walk for two,” Marker said as an example of setting planned walk intervals. at method “can help people build up their initial capacity.”

For runners ages 35 and up, Geisler said starting slow can help, like working toward a goal of “I’m going to run this whole mile without walking,” she said. “And then go from there.”

Also important: making sure you have the right running shoes for you. Geisler recommends getting a shoe tting at a specialty running store like Runners Roost.

“You can really get injuries if you don’t have the right footwear,” Geisler said.

Mental game

“Running is a mental sport” is a cliché for a reason — getting your mind used to running is a big part of the battle.

Di erent strategies can help you tackle the mental aspect of running, according to Marker.

“One very accessible one is goal setting … maybe you’re someone that really thrives on, you know, competition, getting a personal best,” Marker said. For those people, always having an appropriate race that you’re training for can help.

For others, distraction works well, so nd a good music playlist or podcast or audiobooks, Marker suggested.

Or opt for using running as a headclearing experience.

“I can almost do a mindfulness type of thing in running,” Marker said, adding: “Especially if you’re trail running, it can make you stop thinking of other things.”

Gearing up for a marathon

For those who aim to run a marathon — about 26 miles or 42 kilometers — it’s a good idea to schedule an initial training plan of at least six months, Marker said.

For inexperienced runners, there’s “not a small chance that you may get injured in that time, so you want to incorporate some bu er room,” Marker said. at’s partly so if you do develop an injury, you can adjust your training instead of trying to push through the pain and making it worse.

Expecting a long training period can help you eld interruptions that

may pop up.

“Life happens,” Marker said, adding that if you have a busy week at work, for instance, and are not able to stick with your training plan, there’s no need to feel that you’ve failed and have to stop.

In terms of distance, “you want to get in at least one longer run a week,” Marker said.

Expect to run three to four days per week at minimum and six days per week at most.

at’s because runners need to incorporate rest periods to avoid overtraining problems, Marker said, adding that it’s important to give your body time to adapt.

It may surprise you to hear that you shouldn’t be about to keel over throughout your run when training for a marathon.

“It’s not a bad idea to keep most of your training at moderate intensity,” said Marker, who referenced “the talk test.”

at’s “the idea that you’re doing moderate intensity exercise if you’re able to relatively easily carry on a conversation (while) you do that exercise,” Marker said.

If it gets so hard to breathe that you can’t say more than a few words without pausing for breath, that would be higher-than-moderate intensity.

In “the marathon, you’re going to be going at a relatively steady pace for a long period of time,” Marker said, adding it’s a good idea for your training to re ect that pace.

Yes, runners walk

You could call it running or “com-

pleting” a marathon.

“ ere’s no shame if you incorporate walking into a marathon,” Marker said.

“When you get to the elites, they’re running the entire time, and they’re running a pace that people, even me, couldn’t keep up even a 10th of the distance,” said Marker, who has done a couple marathons and one ultramarathon. (An ultramarathon is anything longer than a marathon, he said. e one he did was 50 miles.)

For walking, the biggest tip is making sure it’s planned, Marker said.

“ e moment you start walking because you’re tired,” that can be “game over,” he said.

He added: “You want to have more ‘on’ than ‘o ’ — not ending up with a 50/50 split” of time spent running and walking.

Fuel on the way

Something else you might not know: People training for marathons eat while on the run. at could be energy gels or bars, Marker said.

“I’d say if your long runs are starting to get longer than an hour, that might be a good time to gauge how you’re feeling,” Marker said, adding it could help to start bringing food with you.

Hit the gym

Strength training — not just running — can be key to pushing your running further, as it can help with injury prevention.

“If someone has the time and they’re able to incorporate strength training into their routine,” Marker said, “it can de nitely help them.”

Colorado steps up mpox vaccination campaign

in the United States last summer, is primarily among men who have sex with men and is believed to be spreading mostly through sexual

Vaccination remains limited to those who are currently most at-risk for exposure. at includes:

Colorado health o cials are launching a new vaccination campaign after a handful of cases of mpox, the viral disease formerly known monkeypox, have been identi ed in the state in recent weeks.

Dr. Rachel Herlihy, the state epidemiologist at the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment, said three cases were identi ed in June and one in May. She said some of the cases involved out-of-state travel and two of the cases were linked to each other.

While the numbers are still small — and nowhere near what Colorado experienced last year — Herlihy said the state is hoping to get ahead of any case surge this summer, when people are more likely to congregate at events and potentially spread the virus.

“We are in a much better place than we were last year,” Herlihy said, noting that, in addition to the availability of vaccine, there is also much better public awareness about the disease, better testing and more tools with which to treat it, such as the antiviral drug Tpoxx.

Mpox is a distant, less-severe

cousin of smallpox that is most commonly associated with a painful rash that may initially look like blisters or pimples. But the disease can also cause u-like symptoms, appearing either before or after the rash.

e virus is spread through close contact or through handling infected items like bed linens, and it has the ability to infect anyone given the right transmission environment. e current outbreak, which rst began

e U.S. has seen more than 30,000 cases of mpox since the start of the outbreak, with more than 400 of those occurring in Colorado. Cases in Colorado peaked in August and have been steadily declining since then. Prior to the most recent cases, the last time Colorado recorded a new mpox infection was in January.

Similar to Colorado, the U.S. as a whole is also seeing a slight resurgence in mpox cases — including a cluster of dozens of new cases in Chicago this spring. ose cases in Chicago are especially interesting to epidemiologists, though, because many of those infected had been vaccinated against mpox.

e vaccine has previously proven highly e ective at preventing infection, and researchers at the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have suggested that waning immunity, an increase in exposures or vaccine mishandling could explain the large number of breakthrough cases in Chicago.

Herlihy said, of the four recent Colorado cases, two were in people who had received the full two-dose vaccine regimen and one was in someone who was unvaccinated. Case investigators are still working to determine the vaccination status of the fourth person.

Despite the breakthrough cases, Herlihy said the vaccine is still showing e ectiveness at limiting the severity of illness, making it important for people to get vaccinated — though state and federal o cials are not recommending a booster dose to those already fully vaccinated.

Vaccines are available at several public health departments and clinics across the state. Go to CDPHE’s website to nd a vaccine provider or to sign up to get vaccinated at a mobile clinic.

- Anyone who has had close physical contact in the past 14 days with someone who had mpox,

- Anyone who has multiple or anonymous sexual partners,

- Anyone who has had close physical contact with someone in a venue where anonymous or group sex occurs,

- Anyone who was diagnosed with gonorrhea or syphilis in the previous 6 months,

- Anyone who is living with HIV,

- Anyone who is immunocompromised and anticipates they may be exposed to mpox in the future,

- Anyone who is already eligible for HIV PrEP drugs,

- Anyone who has sex in exchange for money, shelter, food and other goods or needs,

- And anyone whose sexual partner is eligible for mpox vaccination. Herlihy said people may also want to consider limiting their number of sexual partners for the time being or having only partners they already know.

While she remains hopeful that the ongoing outbreak can eventually be stopped, she said Colorado is likely to continue seeing at least some mpox cases. Flare-ups around the globe, and the ease of national and international travel, make it unlikely the state can fully keep the virus outside its borders.

“ ere’s always going to be the potential for re-introduction,” Herlihy said. “For the time being, at least, I think we will continue to see sporadic cases occurring.”

Researchers see a future for psychedelic therapy

Fort Collins study looks at potential uses of LSD

Interest in the possible mental health bene ts of psychedelics is growing as experiments to better understand these substances are moving ahead.

In Fort Collins, researchers at the Wholeness Center are examining the potential therapeutic use of LSD and, in particular, how — and at what dosage — it may impact people with generalized anxiety disorder.

After a lengthy screening process, study participants go to the Wholeness Center for a 12 hour day with two therapists. ey are unaware of what they will be swallowing: a placebo or various amounts of LSD.

“Particularly through the second hour or the third hour, people are in a very di erent frame of mind,” Dr. Scott Shannon, one of the principal study investigators, said of the people who get LSD instead of the placebo. “ e trees may be breathing, the couch may be moving. And some people will nd this incredibly curious. Other people may be a little intimidated.”

e two therapists are there to

reassure participants and calm them down. e experimental sessions taking place in Fort Collins are part of a larger study at 20 sites across the country funded by MindMed, a New York-based biotech company. e company plans to announce topline data from the clinical trials later this year.

“I tell people it’s like, if we’re living our life every day at street level then psychedelics are kind of like going up into a hot air balloon, or maybe even in a satellite, and you’re looking at your life in a very di erent way, and insights come,” Shannon said. “ ey can be scary sometimes. ey can be terrifying.”

is experiment on LSD and anxiety is part of a much larger push to understand how various psychedelics can be used to treat mental health conditions. e e ort involves support from corporations, universities and nonpro ts. Earlier this year, the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus announced an upcoming clinical trial to test whether psilocybin can help with treatment-resistant depression.

Past research e orts have indicated that psilocybin—also called magic mushrooms—can ease anxiety, particularly for cancer patients.

“We have some suggestion that psychedelics can be helpful for

anxiety, and this is a study to try to test that,” Shannon said. this quote was a little long and wordy, I think it can be shortened. e rest has already been explained outside of the quote.

Much of this research has been on hold for decades. After widespread use in the 1960s, the federal government classi ed psychedelics as Schedule 1 drugs, meaning they lack an accepted medical use and have a high potential for abuse.

“It really shut down research in this country for a long, long time. And it’s now just restarting,” Shannon explained.

Eventually, researchers began requesting licenses from the federal government to study some psychedelics. After encouraging results, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has allowed some of this work to move ahead more quickly by granting “breakthrough therapy” status to certain substances.

Luke Niforatos, the CEO of Protect Our Kids, a group that ghts for more restrictive drug policies and recently opposed Colorado’s ballot measure to decriminalize magic mushrooms, believes in the importance of following the FDA’s process.

“I think the concern that I have is, we’re seeing a lot of kind of breathless rhetoric around the...miracle drug potential of psychedelics,” Luke Niforatos, the CEO of Protect Our Kids, a group that ghts for more restrictive drug policies and recently opposed Colorado’s ballot measure to decriminalize magic mushrooms, said.

Niforatos points to the risks of other drugs like opioids and cannabis. In MindMed’s LSD trial in Fort Collins, some groups are excluded from participation: pregnant women and people with a history of psychosis.

at’s because the risks of using psychedelics in these populations are not fully understood.

“ at’s not to say that these drugs don’t do what everyone’s really excited about,” Niforatos said. “But what it does mean, though, is it’s still early.”

Research into a psychedelic called MDMA could be entering its nal

phase before possible FDA approval.

Berra Yazar-Klosinski, the chief science o cer with the MAPS Public Bene t Corporation, said MDMA is further along in the process than other psychedelics thanks to a growing body of research on using it to treat mental health issues in conjunction with therapy.

She remembers looking over the results from a phase three clinical trial on using MDMA to treat Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, published in 2021 in the journal Nature Medicine. 88% of the participants experienced a meaningful change in their symptoms. Around two-thirds no longer met the criteria for a PTSD diagnosis.

“Oh, my gosh. It was so exciting,” Yazar-Klosinski said of the results.

Later this year, Yazar-Klosinski will be walking the FDA through the data as part of a larger request to approve MDMA-assisted therapy.

“It was such a huge surprise that everybody was just shocked and very happy for the PTSD patients and what this could mean for them,” YazarKlosinski said.

Tapping teens to connect youth in mental distress with support

One in ve teens in the U.S. will experience a mental health challenge before they turn 18, but 64% of them won’t seek help.

A new training program is turning to teens to get their peers connected to the resources they need to turn things around.

Betsy Molgano, program director for Mental Health First Aid Colorado, said young people are in a unique position to identify warning signs. Maybe someone they know has been withdrawing from friends, or they used to enjoy soccer and now they aren’t showing up for practice.

“You’re not diagnosing this person, you’re just kind of noticing a change in behavior or appearance,” Molgano explained. “ e training is supposed to help kids feel more comfortable to approach someone and to be like ‘I’ve noticed that there is a change in your typical behavior. Do you want to talk about it? Is everything OK?’”

According to the 2021 Healthy Kids Colorado Survey, nearly 40% of high school students said they experienced symptoms of depression in the last year, and 17% said they had seriously considered suicide. Suicide is the third leading cause of death for kids aged 15 to 19.

Maranda Miller, mental health rst aid coordinator at Centennial Men-

tal Health Center, said Colorado has taken steps to help young people, including o ering free mental health therapy for all youth through a legislatively funded program called I Matter. She encouraged all school districts, even those with tight training budgets, to explore local training opportunities at mentalhealthrstaid.org.

“We know that there’s a huge return on investment if our youth know that they can help each other, that they can help themselves, and that there are highly vetted, highly trained resources available to them,” Miller outlined.

Molgano noted the Teen Mental Health First Aid training helps young people learn how to get their peers

to address mental health and substance use challenges, how school violence and bullying impacts mental well-being, and how to get help from trusted adults and mental health professionals.

“It helps arm kids with the tools that they need to not only help themselves understand what’s going on in their own lives -- and what they might be dealing with -- but also to be on the lookout for what might be going on with their friends, and help build a stronger community,” Molgano emphasized.

Denver Public Schools appeals release of recording of closed-door board meeting about police

Denver Public Schools is resisting releasing a recording of a March closed-door meeting of the school board as a Denver District Court

judge had ordered the district to do.

DPS has appealed the district court ruling to the Colorado Court of Appeals. e school district’s

TRAVEL

Other challenges for groups of travelers during previous trips and even at home have been prompted by people rather than places. For instance, while The Wayfaring Band was exploring Seattle last summer, a woman collecting tickets for a ferry ride belittled the troupe as they boarded.

“She was saying things like, ‘Why are you so slow? Are you an idiot? What’s wrong with you?’” Hagar recalls.

That moment sticks with Pressel, who kept walking but grew quietly angry as the woman con-

lawyers had indicated at a court hearing earlier this month that they would continue to oppose the release of the recording of the vehour meeting.

e meeting, called an executive session, occurred on March 23, one day after an East High School

tinued her outburst. But the accessibility setbacks the group faced in Berlin didn’t completely cloud their trip. Instead, band members encouraged one another to be open about their needs and be brave enough to ask for help.

Traveling with the band led Sophia Calderón, a freelance photographer who shadowed band members and documented their days in Berlin, to be more aware of how she carries herself and the ways she views spaces.

“I’m also in this space of my life where I’m ready to unlearn a lot of the structures that society has implemented in our minds,” Calderón said, adding that she wants people to understand that individuals with disabilities de-

serve autonomy and can give help as easily as they receive it.

As a group in Berlin, The Wayfaring Band formed its own sense of community during their nearly week and a half of travels — one that surrounded Brennan with the kinds of meaningful friends she’s been searching for, especially after a recent divorce chipped away at her ability to trust others.

“They really helped build that for me, at least like the first building block of trusting people a little bit more,” she said.

And they have helped her embrace the differences she has spent so much of her life questioning.

“The culture of our group is the way that I wish the world operated, where folks are just on a regu-

not properly noticed and that the board made its decision in private, despite the public vote. State law says the “formation of public policy is public business and may not be conducted in secret.”

Denver District Court Judge Andrew Luxen listened to the recording and ruled in favor of the media organizations in June. He ordered DPS to release the recording publicly late last month.

But DPS’s appeal now puts the

lar basis supporting each other with whatever they need and remembering that we are different and yet we are all on the same team,” Hagar said. “We all want happiness. We all want peace in our lives. We all want a life of adventure and beauty, and … we can lean on each other to get all of those things. And it actually makes it more magical when we get to do it all together.”

In its notice of appeal, the school district’s lawyers asked the appellate court to consider whether the district court judge was wrong to listen to the recording and determine that the discussion in the executive session did not meet the criteria under state law for when boards can meet privately.

Triple Crown International Challenge brings softball’s best to Colorado

30

Explosive cheers. e battle rhythm of drums. Air horns. All that and more collided in the air all day long, creating a festive and, at times, intense atmosphere around the Christopher Fields Softball Complex in Westminster. irty teams representing countries around the globe put on a wild showcase on the diamonds.

“For one weekend a year, they get a chance to [ditch their travel uniforms] and put a country in front of their jersey,” said Manny Travieso.

e event is the result of a partnership between Colorado’s Triple Crown Sports, and the ELLA Sports Foundation, a nonpro t whose mission is to level the playing eld for Latina and girl athletes as a whole.

Travieso is director of sports programming at ELLA, which stands for Empowering Leadership in Latina Athletes. It also means “she” in Spanish.

e event itself isn’t limited to girls with Spanish-speaking or Latina backgrounds. It’s meant to connect players to their family heritages.

e Triple Crown International Challenge brings an electric environment and the Westminster complex has played host to it since 2021. e competition this year ran June 22-26. Friends and family from all over the country came to support their players.

e event was created, Travieso said, to showcase elite softball players in front of college coaches scouting for talent and in front of national Olympic teams. Also, to allow players from di erent nationalities and backgrounds to play for a country they could never otherwise play for due to political laws or Olympic restrictions, such as Cuba, Japan, or the Middle East

In the three-ish years since it was formed, Travieso said more than 45 di erent athletes have played in federations or national Olympic teams around the world largely due to the exposure from this event alone.

Colorado provides both the premier facilities in Westminster and an ideal middle-ground location in general for the athletes and their

families, he said, many of which are traveling from as far as Florida, New York, and California.

“ is is the best of the best from all over the United States,” Travieso said. “College coaches can come over here and see the best talent possible. Every year it gets bigger and bigger and bigger.”

Adam Glickman, is the father of Kaia Glickman, who played in the inaugural Triple Crown event in 2021.

Kaia has since played in college, and is playing in the 2023 Canada Cup in July for Israel’s women’s national team. Adam Glickman praised the event for the opportunities it produces for athletes all over the country.

“[ is event] is an unusual opportunity for these girls and their families to connect softball to something other than their club or their high school, but to connect it to a nationality, a heritage,” Glickman said.

“ at goes deep. at’s your grandparents. at’s your extended family.

ey all get to take enormous pride when they see that kid with that ag and the name of the country. You’re playing for your family pride.”

You put together not just one, but more than 15 or 20 of those kids and their families, and it becomes playing for something much bigger than

yourself, Glickman said.  e experience is di erent for every team, he explained. In Team Israel’s case, Israel is such a new country, relatively speaking, only born decades ago.

For their players and their families, it’s not about having a relative that’s from Israel, but it’s about recognizing Jewish culture and identity, he said.

“For a lot of our girls that come from 15 di erent states, very often they’re the only Jewish kid on the softball team,” Glickman said. “ ere are no others, so they feel isolated. It’s hard for them to connect their Jewish life or their Jewish identity with the game they love. Finding others, it’s this idea, ‘Wait a second, there are other Jewish softball players who can play at this level?’ at’s extra special.”

For German Caravaca, the coach of the 18U Central America team, which represents several di erent countries, it’s about visibility and expanding the opportunities for his players at the next level and beyond.

He said three players from last year’s Central America team are playing for the women’s national team in Guatemala this year.

“My goal is for these players to have fun, come out here and excel, but also have those people from na-

tional teams watch them play,” Caravaca, from Florida, said. “Hopefully they understand and see the value of these girls. Even though they’re born here, they’re still descendents from those countries. ey can be out there and represent those countries worldwide.”

For the third straight year, the World Baseball Softball Confederation (WBSC), working with ELLA, has assembled representatives from speci c countries that are looking for U.S. talent of their country’s heritage to play in upcoming international events and quali ers. is is the rst year the European Federation is taking part in the event.  roughout the weekend, representatives from several di erent countries, including Panama, Nicaragua, Honduras, and more are keeping their eyes peeled for special players to potentially recruit.  ey aren’t the only ones recruit-

Monica Harrison, head coach of the softball team at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, knows the pool of talent here is exciting.

She’s had players on her roster from this event before, so she’s familiar with the skill level on display in Westminster. at’s why she traveled across the country for a closer look.

“I’m looking for the ability to be able to diversify my roster,” Harrison said. “I think the game of softball is such an international sport, as you can see. e ability to have folks from di erent places being able to connect and play, that’s what I’m looking for.”

Seeing players become teammates so suddenly, but being brought together by a common heritage, is special. It’s also similar to how players acclimate to college play, she said.

You don’t have a lot of time to get to know your teammates before you must depend on one another to win games. Harrison said she’s looking for players who outmatch the intensity and passion of their relatives in the stands.

“To be able to see the leadership qualities and the ability to communicate, those are the little things that I’m looking for,” she said. “I’m always going to be able to see their visible skill. But it’s those intangible things that I’m able to see in these games that are going to make my team better. I want to see them bring the energy! At the end of the day, softball is such a fun sport.

want to see that on the eld.”  Opening ceremonies were canceled on June 22 due to rainy weather. But the sun came back out the following day, Friday, setting up a beautiful, full-slated weekend of softball. Champions were crowned after the nal games on June 25.

On June 26, national team evaluations and Olympic federation tryouts were held throughout the day at Waddell Park. e Triple Crown All-Academic Games were also held in Aurora, where 15 players from multiple teams competed in academic challenges.  June 28 brought an all-world, allstar style competition consisting of the best players from all teams competing in two softball squads against one another back at the complex.

PUBLIC NOTICE

To: First Mortgagees of Units in Dakotah at Willow Springs Homeowners Association, Inc.

Date: June 29, 2023

Re: Notice of Proposed Declaration Amendment

The purpose of this letter is to provide a dated, written notice and convey a copy of the proposed Second/Third Amendments to the Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions for Dakotah at Willow Springs (“Declaration Amendments”) by certified mail to your company, as a first mortgagee, at your company’s most recent address as shown on the recorded deed of trust or recorded assignment thereof, pursuant to C.R.S. § 38-33.3-217(1)(b)(I). Dakotah at Willow Springs Homeowners Association, Inc. (“Association”), through its Board of Directors and with the

assistance from legal counsel, has prepared the proposed Declaration Amendments to the existing Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions for Dakotah at Willow Springs to be recorded with the Clerk and Recorder’s Office for the County of Jefferson, Colorado on September 7, 1984 at Reception Number 84085141, as it may have been amended and supplemented from time to time (“Declaration”).

The consent of one hundred percent (100%) of first mortgagees is required to approve the proposed Declaration Amendments, pursuant to Article XVI, Section 4 of the Declaration of the Declaration. One amendment addresses the insurance obligations of the Association and the Owners and seeks to shift the responsibility to obtain and maintain property casualty insurance on the Units and any appurtenant Limited Common Areas (e.g., walkways, decks, patios, porches, planters, driveways, etc.) from the Association to the Owners. The second amendment addresses the uses for any levied special assessment and seeks to amend Article V, Section 4 of the Declaration to provide broader authority for the Association to use the proceeds of any levied special assessment.

A first mortgagee shall be deemed to have approved the proposed Declaration Amendments, if said first mortgagee does not deliver to the Association a negative response within sixty (60) days after the date of this notice, pursuant to C.R.S. § 38-33.3-217(1)(b)(II). You may deliver your response in writing to the Association, c/o Moeller Graf, P.C., 385 Inverness Pkwy., Suite 200, Englewood, CO 80112, but you are not required to respond.

Please review this notice carefully. It may affect first mortgagees’ rights in the Unit(s) within the Association’s community in which first mortgagees may have an interest.

A copy of the proposed Declaration Amendments may be obtained by contacting Moeller Graf, P.C., at 720-279-2568 or via email at bahmeti@moellergraf.com.
