Local man has tall tales Hiker commemorates Maroon Bells ascent with nod to local business By Jane Reuter

jreuter@colorado communitymedia.com Lone Tree resident Michael Knight recently accomplished a pretty sweet (and sweaty) feat. On Sept. 12, Knight climbed his 59th 14,000-foot peak — Maroon Peak near Aspen, one of the Maroon Bells. That makes him among a small number of people who’ve climbed all 59 peaks the U.S. Geological Survey lists at above 14,000 feet in Colorado. It’s a journey the 62-year-old businessman started three years ago. “I just started by doing one with my children,” he said. “Then I did the Front Range ones and caught the bug. I joined a couple of Meetup groups, and met a whole bunch of good people. “Most people I climb with are about one-third to half my age. I

think they’re somewhat amazed or maybe amused that I’m still doing it.” In August, he climbed sister mountain North Maroon Peak, which he said was the toughest fourteener of all. As a symbol of both the peaks and his hometown of Lone Tree, Knight brought with him on his Aug. 9 hike a sign from Lone Tree’s Maroon Bells Chocolate Factory. He posed with it on top of North Maroon Peak. The photo commemorated a hard-fought victory. “No question about it; that one was the hardest,” he said. “They’re known as the Deadly Bells.” The Bells got that ominous nickname in 1965 when eight people died in five separate accidents there. A U.S. Forest Service sign at the trailhead warns climbers about unstable rock that kills without warning. Knight, who owns a company called Prime Capital Connections, was planning to climb the Maroon Bells as he was driving down Park Meadows Drive in early August, where the chocolate factory is lo-

cated. “I passed a business called Maroon Bells Chocolate, turned around and went back,” he said. Patti Shepard, who works at the Lone Tree business, happily provided him with a sign to take on his hike. “We were just so thrilled; that’s how we named the chocolate company, after that mountain,” she said, adding the beauty of the peaks inspired their decision. Knight missed his first attempt to summit adjacent Maroon Peak on Aug. 10. Just 800 feet shy of the top, black clouds moved in and forced him down. “It was an agonizing decision to turn back but not a hard one because I didn’t want to be a lightning rod,” he said. On Sept. 12, he went back and bagged his final fourteener. This time, the weather was crystal clear, and the mountains appeared to join Knight in celebration. “All the aspens are turning and the mountains were ablaze with yellow and red,” he said. “Nature had on her party dress for sure.”

vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com Trying to make sense of multiple — and wildly conflicting — governor’s-race polling results released on Sept. 17 was a bit like shoveling the sidewalk while it’s still snowing. Throughout the day, separate polling agencies released surveys hours apart from one another, with their findings resulting in a 17-point swing from one possible extreme to another — with Democratic Gov. John Hickenlooper leading in two polls. But the Beauprez Hickenlooper most eyeb r ow - ra i s ing results came from a Qunnipiac University poll that showed Hickenlooper losing by 10 percentage points among likely voters to Republican former Congressman Bob Beauprez. The findings show Hickenlooper trailing Beauprez 5040 percent, with the governor losing in support among women, 47-46 percent, and trailing badly among men, 54-34 percent. “Pundits were predicting that Gov. Hickenlooper faced a close race for re-election,” said Tim Malloy, the poll’s assistant director. “Instead, he’s got a mad dash to make up

Leads group celebrates longevity Business owners share sales tips, friendship By Jane Reuter

jreuter@colorado communitymedia.com In the comfortable manner of longtime acquaintances, the men and women greet one another with warm smiles, swapping updates on family members, sharing stories of their summer vacations. But the twice-monthly morning gathering of The Team at the Greenwood Village City Hall is all in the name of business — and helping others find business. The Team is a leads group. Built on a foundation of trust, familiarity and a sense of obligation, the group’s intent is to help its members succeed in business by providing solid sales tip to one another. What makes the south metrobased group unique is its longevity. Founder Frank Zieg, a Lone Tree Realtor, held the first meeting of the then-unnamed group of four in 1987.

Today, more than 60 people are on the roster. “In hindsight, I probably should have franchised it,” Zieg said. “There are a lot of other leads groups that have come and gone since I started this one.” Zieg belonged to a national leads organization called Le Tip before deciding to start The Team. Like Le Tip and BNI International, The Team is limited to one person from each line of business, a rule that prevents competition among members. The Team’s annual dues are $75, much less than most other leads groups. That means there are no morning buffets or continental breakfasts. Most mornings, you won’t find as much as a box of grocery-store doughnuts or pot of coffee in the room. Zieg throws a party at Christmas and another during the summer. The rest of the money is used for printing lead forms and other miscellaneous costs. “I keep it pretty lean so we do have enough money to do a couple nice parties,” he said. “Occasionally we’ll bring in some food

for the heck of it.” The bare-bones nature of the group is part of the allure for Team members, many of whom left other leads groups to join Zieg’s. “They didn’t like the format or expense, or there was too much pressure on them to bring leads,” Zieg said. “Here, it’s kind of what you do with it. The idea is to come in, have a good reciprocity type of relationship and try to get people leads. “I get 20 to 25 percent of my real estate business out of the group. So it’s worthwhile.” Group members include three attorneys — all specializing in different areas of the law — a skincare specialist, dentist, mortgage consultant, flooring specialist and photographer, among others. They not only pass leads, but credit one another for doing so. During the Sept. 4 meeting, a windows and siding salesman hands another Team member a $500 check; it’s his company’s Group continues on Page 9

Confidence grows with new friends, new language English practice sessions among many programs offered by Douglas County Libraries By Christy Steadman csteadman@colorado communitymedia.com

Ivette Bartra’s husband is Canadian and speaks five languages. His job requires them to move quite often, so Bartra, of Peru, likes learning about new cultures and meeting new friends through Practice Your English sessions. Monica Ceja was a history teacher in the Mexican state of Michoacán. Now a Highlands Ranch resident, Ceja attends Practice Your English because she wants to return to Mexico someday to teach English there. Tatiana and Taisiyia Lushnikova, mother and daughter from Siberia, come to Practice Your English simply because they enjoy using the English language in a relaxed, social atmosphere. “Basically, it’s a public speaking opportunity,” said Shana Rubio, Practice Your English volunteer facilitator. “The point is to get you talking.” Practice Your English is for adults whose second language is English and want to improve their English-language speaking skills. “I like my hobbies, but I don’t practice my English enough,” said Tatiana Lushnikova, who makes jewelry in her home. The free sessions are drop-in and do not follow a strict curriculum. The only requirement is that one person does not dominate the conversation so everyone has a chance to have the floor, said Tiffany Curtin, adult literacy specialist with Douglas County Libraries. “The volunteers treat it like having a group of friends over who don’t speak English 100 percent fluently,” Curtin said. Practice Your English sessions take place from 10:30 a.m. to noon every Saturday at the James H. LaRue/Highlands Ranch Library and the Parker Library.

PROGRAMS OFFERED Douglas County Libraries offer various programs through the Adult Literacy Department. For more information on any of them, contact Tiffany Curtin at 303-6887646 or tcurtin@dclibraries.org. • Practice Your English: James H. LaRue/Highlands Ranch Library, 9292 Ridgeline Blvd., and Parker Library, 10851 S Crossroads Drive, 10:30 a.m. to noon every Saturday. • Cafecito Amigo Multicultural Participatory Program: brings together native English speakers and English language learners for friendly coffee chat. • One2One Adult Tutoring: personalized, private tutoring sessions for English as a Second Language, Literacy and GED students. • Citizenship Classes: helps prepare candidates for the U.S. Citizenship interview. • Free GED Test Prep: 6-8:30 p.m. Tuesdays at the Philip S. Miller Library 100 S. Wilcox in Castle Rock; 6-8:30 p.m. Mondays and Wednesdays at the Parker Library. • Inmate Education: GED test preparation, ESL and the Inmate Read-A-Book program offered at the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office. • Delivery to Homebound Residents: delivers books to Douglas County residents unable to visit the library because of extended illness, health condition or disability. All skill levels are welcome, Curtin said, but most participants are generally at the intermediate level. Those with high-beginning or intermediate abilities get the most out of it, she said. “We try to keep (sessions) as conversation, rather than a class,” Curtin said. “But sometimes there are some that are hungry to learn.” The Highlands Ranch sessions generally have the largest turnout, Curtin said, with as many as up to 11 attendees at one session. However, both libraries attract students from Asian, Spanish-speaking and European countries. In August and September, volunteers facilitated conversations with people from Korea, China, India, Turkey, Russia, Siberia, Ukraine, Colombia, Venezuela, Brazil, El Salvador, Mexico and Peru. They talk about whatever keeps the conversation flowing. “It’s always different every single time,”

Shana Rubio, far left, listens while Practice Your English participants play a game where they answer a question which is assigned by the card they draw at random. The participants were given a choice to answer the question or pass it on to another participant to answer. Photo by Christy Steadman Rubio said. “I try to create an environment that people can feel comfortable talking about themselves.” Facilitators usually have some sort of a plan, Curtain said, which generally begins with basic introductions. Then they may talk about the Broncos, the Rockies or the Olympics. Usually, facilitators bring some sort of visual aid or a game to play, such as Go Fish where students draw a question that prompts conversation. Sometimes, facilitators incorporate cultural aspects. For example, they may talk about American values, U.S. history or civics. “Participants are encouraged to talk about their own observances,” Curtin said. Ceja, who has attended for about a year, enjoys meeting new people and learning about their cultures. “It’s very important to talk about everything,” she said. What facilitators don’t do is point out grammatical errors or emphasize accent reduction. They do so only if necessary for clarity.

“Pronunciation can have an accent. They’re learning while listening to others talk,” Rubio said. “I’m not going to correct them every time they make a grammatical mistake.” The English language is the common ground, Rubio said. For example, a person whose native language is Spanish and someone whose native language is Mandarin must communicate in English to understand each other. As a first-time attendee, Bartra enjoyed being able to make new friends. “It was a nice time to share,” she said. Students often exchange phone numbers, Rubio said, and she is always pleased to hear them using their English — even after the session has ended for the day. “One student has received a job promotion due to improved English skills. One student is very proud that she ordered her own lunch and didn’t have to rely on her kids to do it,” Curtin said. “Confidence grows when you don’t have to rely on somebody else to communicate for you.”

Curves and Jenny Craig team up in Lone Tree Exercise studio to also provide weight-loss counseling and services By Jane Reuter

jreuter@colorado communitymedia.com Following the time-proven, weight-loss recipe of good nutrition coupled with exercise, Curves and Jenny Craig have formed a team. The Lone Tree Curves is among nine studios nationwide to debut the partnership. It’s also under new ownership. Krissy O’Brien, who owns two other Curves studios in the south metro area, recently added the Lone Tree business to her stable. With 13 years in the business, O’Brien is a firm believer in Curves’ benefits. “I have a passion for doing this,” O’Brien said. “Eight years ago, I lost my mom to diabetes. I wasn’t able to help her, but I’m able to help a lot of other women so they can live longer lives.”

O’Brien also has faith in the Jenny Craig program, and the power of combing the two businesses under one roof. Both companies are now jointly owned by North Castle Partners, a Connecticut-based private equity firm. A trained Jenny Craig nutrition counselor will be available at the Park Meadows Drive studio during business hours to consult with customers. Under the Jenny Craig program model, meals are mailed to subscribers’ homes. With the addition of Curves, workouts and weigh-in are done at Curves. “Statistically, they show the accountability of coming in and weighing in with somebody, then having that one-on-one coaching, makes you more successful,” O’Brien said. “By doing your strength training, you raise your metabolism and gain muscle. You get your 30-minute workout in, then meet with your Jenny Craig adviser.” Women can choose to participate in the Curves program along, Jenny Craig alone, or both simultaneously. The Curves workout is done

in a 30-minute circuit designed to improve strength and aerobic conditioning. The circular arrangement of the equipment also encourages conversation and connection among participants; that’s one of the aspects O’Brien likes best. “Women see results and it’s not boring; they’re all talking,” she said. “There’s such camaraderie. People form coffee and bridge groups because they all met at Curves.” The friendships are nearly as much a highlight as the innumerable success stories O’Brien’s witnessed over the years. She hopes to help create more of both in the new studio. “I’m just excited about Lone Tree,” she said. “The people have been amazing and friendly.” The cost for access to both Curves and Jenny Craig programs and services is $58 a month. Curves alone is $39 a month and Jenny Craig alone is $19 a month. The Lone Tree Curves is on Park Meadows Drive, west of Yosemite Street, near Word of Life Lutheran Church.

Schweiger Ranch adds maze, more to fall festival fun By Jane Reuter

jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Like the Schweiger Ranch itself, the annual fall festival it hosts gets better each year. This year’s free event, set for 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Oct. 4, features the pumpkin patch and hayrides visitors have come to expect, but adds a 3-D cave maze, Lego-themed activities, a disc jockey and food trucks, among other new features. It’s also a chance to show off the latest renovations to the historic property. Completed late this summer, they include the

construction of corrals around the barn, stable and a shed, renovation of the chicken coop and granary, added electricity and interpretive signage. “It has really made a substantial difference and change at the ranch, bringing it back to its historic glory,” said Darryl Jones. “There are only a couple buildings left for us to renovate, and we’re hoping to get a grant to finish up in 2015.” Children and adults who visit the ranch during the fall festival can choose a pumpkin for $5, take a tractor or hayride, visit the petting zoo, take historic ranch tours, participate in the Bricks 4 Kidz Lego classes

and Wildlife Experience interactive booth, and maneuver through the Cave of Confusion. Similar to the CaveSim that was an instant hit among children at the recent Taste of Lone Tree, the Cave of Confusion is a 3-D maze built inside a 20-foot trailer. Children can crawl 150 linear feet through the twisting, turning corridors. Food vendors include Crepes A Go Go, the Dessert Stand, Bistro Bus and Biker Jim’s Hot Dogs. With the ranch’s needed infrastructure improvements nearly complete, Jones and his team envision a future living museum similar to Denver’s Four Mile Historic Park

or Castle Rock’s Lowell Ranch. That could include a petting zoo, living bee exhibit, chickens, demonstrations of ranch activities and a community garden. Originally known as the Happy Canyon Ranch, Austrian emigrants John, Joseph, and Jacob Schweiger established the acreage in 1874. RidgeGate Investments bought the property in 1972, and chose to preserve the 38-acre property as a historic landmark instead of developing it into home sites or commercial property. The ranch is located near the intersection of RidgeGate Parkway and Havana Street at 10822 Havana.

Advocating to breathe freely Denver to host 5K run/ walk event for lung cancer awareness By Christy Steadman csteadman@colorado communitymedia.com

Lung cancer is not limited to people who smoke. “Any one with lungs can get lung cancer,” said Teresa MacKillop, co-chair of the Denver Free to Breathe event. “And that’s a fact.” MacKillop’s sister died at the age of 39 after being diagnosed with lung cancer 11 months prior. Her mother died from lung cancer at 71, after being diagnosed one year prior. Both had never smoked, she said. A fundraising and awareness event, the 5th annual Denver Free to Breathe 5K Run/ Walk, will take place at 8:40 a.m. Oct. 5 at Washington Park, 701 S. Franklin St., Denver. Funds will go toward lung cancer research, and programs for early treatment and detection. “No one wants to talk about cancer at all,” said Dana Tasker, of Centennial, a third-year participant of the event. “But it’s important to find out early, and that’s what the fundraising helps.” Tasker lost her mother, Linda Lefrancois, a former Centennial resident, to stage IV adenocarcinoma lung cancer. When Lefrancois went to doctors because of suffering with a severe cough, they told her it was bronchitis, Tasker said. “It’s a deadlier cancer because people don’t know they have it,” Tasker said. Lefrancois was diagnosed with the cancer in July 2009. She passed away in May 2010. Generally, by the time a person has symptoms, he or she is already in the late

IF YOU GO What: 5th annual Denver Free to Breathe 5K Run/Walk When: Oct. 5; registration and check-in: 7:30 a.m.; walk begins: 8:40 a.m. Where: Washington Park, 701 S. Franklin St., Denver, 80209 How to register: online (closes Oct. 1), $30; mail-in (must be received by Sept. 29), $33; event day, $35 Why: Raise awareness of lung cancer. Funds will go toward research and programs for early treatment and detection. For more information: www.freetobreathe.org.

LUNG CANCER FACTS • Smoking is the leading cause of lung cancer. But people who have never smoked account for 20,000 to 30,000 lung cancer diagnoses every year. • Exposure to radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer, and the leading cause in people who have never smoked. • Lung cancer accounts for 27 percent of all cancer deaths. It claims more lives than breast, prostate and colon cancers combined. Source: www.freetobreathe.org stages of cancer, stage three or four, MacKillop said. “Testing is not where it needs to be,” she said. Genetic predisposition may play a role in developing lung cancer, but professionals only know of about 23 genetic markers to test. “There could be hundreds,” MacKillop said. There are 288,000 people diagnosed with lung cancer every year, MacKillop said, and every year, 160,000 people die from the disease. She said the five-year survival rate is very low — only 16 percent. The goal of Free to Breathe is to double lung cancer survival by 2022.

Linda Lefrancois passed away from lung cancer in 2010. In this photo, three of her grandchildren, Delaney, Jalyn and Michael, walk in her memory during the 2011 Free to Breathe event. This year, the event takes place Oct. 5 at Washington Park in Denver. Photo courtesy of Dana Tasker Other types of cancers get a lot of recognition, Tasker said, but people don’t realize how common lung cancer actually is. She said the advancements with early detection and cures for some cancers, such as breast cancer, are amazing. “That’s where I want lung cancer.” One important part of raising awareness to lung cancer is “washing away” the stigma that all people who get lung cancer deserve it because they smoke, MacKillop said, which contributes to why funding is

low. She wants more people to become involved and realize that lung cancer will continue to affect a large number of people—including nonsmokers. More than 20 percent of newly diagnosed lung cancer patients never smoked, she said. “You can’t freak out and live your life in fear of getting lung cancer,” MacKillop said, “but you can help raise money for research, learn about the disease and be aware.”

Federal, state leaders tour Douglas schools Students show off efforts that garnered green awards By Jane Reuter

Three Douglas County elementary schools fairly buzzed with a combination of excitement, nerves and pride Sept. 16 when federal and state leaders toured their buildings as part of the 2014 Green Strides Best Practices Tour. Heritage Elementary in Highlands Ranch, Flagstone Elementary in Castle Rock and Larkspur Elementary all have earned national recognition for their conservation efforts.

Larkspur earned the U.S. Department of Education’s Green Ribbon Award in 2014, and Flagstone in 2012. Flagstone and Heritage are among four DCSD schools that received the National Wildlife Federation’s EcoSchools USA Green Flag Award. Castle Rock and Copper Mesa elementary schools also earned the Green Flag designation. The Colorado Department of Education hosted the Denver metro-area tour, one of several stops on the U.S. Department of Education’s Green Strides Best Practices Tour. The two-day visit also included stops at schools in Denver, Fort Collins, Wellington and Boulder, with a kickoff event at the CDE’s Denver office. Douglas County elementary school students led the visitors to a multitude of sites within

each school, showing and explaining the efforts that earned them their sustainability awards. Those included conserving water, recycling, growing school gardens, creating bluebird habitats and launching bike-toschool programs, among others. “Now in my 15th state of the Green Strides Tour, I can’t recall a state where sustainability was so embedded in school and community culture and so integrated across everything that our honorees do,” Green Ribbons School program director Andrea Suarez Falken said. “I hope you feel the gravity of your accomplishments even more now after these visits.” Energy and conservation efforts districtwide have saved a combined $18.3 million in seven years, according to DCSD.

I personally reserve my Saturday morning to spend time educating myself on what is happening throughout the county, as well as look for advertisers that I can support if I am in the market for the products or services that they offer.

School board to ask state for waiver Parents concerned move could pave way for bigger changes By Jane Reuter

jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com A parent group is circulating a petition urging the Douglas County School Board to host community meetings about some potential school district changes. The board adopted a resolution Sept. 2 to submit an innovation waiver to the Colorado Board of Education. The waiver could free district schools from some state statutes and rules, including mandated tests. In the resolution, the board cites specific concerns with 2012’s Reading to Ensure Academic Development Act. School leaders said the resolution only involves the READ Act, and individual schools must have support from staff and committees to participate in a waiver from the test. Douglas County School District legal counsel Rob Ross emphasized during the Sept. 2 meeting that the waivers would be on a school-by-school basis, and “expressly conditioned on those schools getting evidence of support of their SAC (School Accountability Committee).” Each school’s teaching staff also must support the idea before it can move forward, according to an email from DCSD spokes-

woman Paula Hans. Schools can later choose to discontinue participation in the waiver, she wrote. But some parents believe the board’s submission is an indication of bigger district-level plans. They want a public discussion of the idea before it goes any further. Laura Mutton, president of the Strong Schools Coalition, is gathering signatures on a petition that will urge the board to hold such meetings, “so the community can come and understand what their plans are in terms of becoming an innovation district.” According to the Colorado Department of Education, “The Innovation Schools Act provides a pathway for schools and districts to develop innovative practices, better meet the needs of individual students and allow more autonomy to make decisions at the school level.” In a CDE-published guide for implementing 2008’s Innovation Schools Act, it encourages local boards to involve teachers, administrators, parents and other community members in the process, “as early as possible.” “There is a requirement in the statue to have some evidence of community support,” Ross said at the Sept. 2 meeting. “That can be provided through a SAC if there’s community representation on the SAC.” While board members have been talking about the innovation status at school SAC meetings, Mutton said that isn’t enough.

“I’m feeling like they aren’t being upfront with their plans to become an innovation district,” she said. “If this is well intended, there’s no reason not to bring it up in public and let the community discuss the plan and ask for their input.” The series of reading ability tests required for K-3 students under the READ Act is time-consuming, and the board’s resolution suggests the act is inconsistent with the approaches some DCSD elementary schools prefer to use in their reading programs. The goal of the READ Act, according to the board’s resolution, “does not provide the necessary flexibility for the teachers of DCSD to choose the assessments and rigorous, innovative approaches that best assist them in guiding their students to reading proficiency.” The resolution directs DCSD administration to assist interested elementary schools with filing an application under the Innovation Schools Act “for flexibility to use alternate, locally developed and approved means of meeting the goals of the READ Act …” District leaders said school staff they’ve consulted with so far express support for the idea. “Schools are being forced to put time and dollars behind tests they don’t value or need for some students,” superintendent Elizabeth Fagen said. “It’s not a lack of interest and accountability at all. The bar for the READ Act is so incredibly low; we’re asking to do more for students in a better, more personalized way.”

Absent the READ Act requirements, individual schools would determine the best way to assess students. Several other parents also question the district’s intent in submitting the innovation waiver. Cindy Barnard, president of Taxpayers for Public Education and a plaintiff in the voucher case, said the resolution should sound alarms within the community. “They made it sound like it’s just to get waivers for state testing and it is so much more than that,” she said. “It empowers the board to basically control a school, even more than they do now. It truly is anther arm to privatize education.” Barnard noted it, like DCSD’s voucher program, is a product of the American Legislative Exchange Council. ALEC’s model legislation includes an Innovation Schools and School Districts Act, as well as a Parental Choice Scholarship Program Act. DCSD’s voucher program is more formally known as the choice scholarship program. ALEC is a nonprofit organization of state legislators and private sector representatives that drafts model state-level legislation. According to its website, ALEC “works to advance the fundamental principles of freemarket enterprise, limited government, and federalism at the state level through a nonpartisan public-private partnership of America’s state legislators, members of the private sector and the general public.”

Campaign ad doesn’t represent school district By Jane Reuter

jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Douglas County School District officials said a woman identified as a teacher in Douglas County on a pro-Amendment 68 advertisement does not represent or speak for DCSD. The school district confirmed a person named Brooke Booth was added to its substitute teacher list in April 2013. “Regardless of her status as a substitute teacher in DCSD, the woman shown in the Amendment 68 ad is not a representative of DCSD and does not speak for the District or its Board in the ad,” DCSD spokeswoman Paula Hans wrote in an email. “DCSD has not taken a position on 68.”

Amendment 68, which will appear on the November statewide ballot, will ask voters to authorize limited gaming at horse racetracks in Arapahoe, Mesa and Pueblo counties, with some of the revenue benefitting K-12 education. Booth also is listed as a Castle Rock real estate agent. Contacted at the phone number connected with her real estate agency, Booth said she is a teacher but did not respond to further questions. Brooke Booth is married to Matt Booth, who worked as an independent consultant to Phase Line Strategies. The Highlands Ranchbased Republican political consulting group was acquired by R&R Partners in 2012. R&R is a consultant on the pro-68 campaign. DCSD community relations officer Cina-

mon Watson previously was a principal at Phase Line. Michele Ames, spokeswoman for the anti68 group “Don’t Turn Racetracks into Casinos,” said their organization recently asked supporters of Amendment 68 to pull another advertisement it felt was deceptive. That ad featured a man identified as an education advocate in Mesa County School District 51. “Their genuine problem is they don’t have support in the education community for this measure,” Ames said. “So they’re continually manufacturing it to try to make it appear as though they do.” A spokeswoman for the pro-68 group Coloradans for Better Schools said the campaign did not pull the advertisement. “Once we learned about that, we modified

how we identified him,” said Monica McCafferty of R&R Partners. Duke Wortmann no longer is identified with the school district but as the Grand Junction chamber’s citizen of the year. “In terms of the opposition, it’s clear that they are definitely concerned about protecting their own business interests over the future of our state’s youth,” McCafferty said. “We do have support from across the entire state. We do hear from teachers, moms and parents who see this as a good solution.” The measure has put the Rhode Islandbased owners of the Arapahoe Park racetrack in a battle against owners of existing Colorado casinos.

Union leader critical of education reform Former district teacher speaks to local teachers’ union members By Jane Reuter

jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com A national teachers’ union representative gave a slide presentation to some Douglas County teachers that casts a negative light on the school district’s education reform policies. Rob Weil, director of field programs for the Washington, D.C.-based American Federation of Teachers, said the American education system needs improvement. But he said market-based reforms similar to those under way in the Douglas County School District, have been tried and have failed in other countries. He pointed specifically to Sweden and Chile — the education systems in both countries have prompted hot debate and some turmoil. Weil presented research on international, national and local impacts of education reform during a Sept. 15 talk at the Centennial Embassy Suites hotel. The public presentation followed the Douglas County Federation’s annual general membership meeting. The DCF, whose contract with the school district expired in 2012, is the local chapter of the AFT. Weil is a former Douglas County teacher who frequently paused in his presentation to point out his apparent conflict of interest. “You can’t count on me, because I’m tainted,” he said. “I ask you to take the time to look this stuff up. It’s all open source.” Doug Benevento, school board vice president, said via email of the presentation, “Once again, this is yet another attempt by the union to stir controversy and create chaos where there simply is none.” Data from the Colorado Department of Education showed a decline in DCSD’s performance framework scores from 2010 to 2013. The performance frameworks measure indicators of educational success, including academic achievement, academic longitudinal growth, academic gaps and

postsecondary and workforce readiness. DCSD’s performance framework scores dropped 7.4 percent from 2010 to 2013. The school district did not comment on the change in its CDE performance framework statistics. But DCSD spokeswoman Paula Hans wrote in an email, “DCSD is reinventing American education. Our focus remains on providing a world-class education to all students with the 21st-century skills students will need — communication, collaboration, critical thinking and creativity — to succeed in whatever college or career they choose.” Weil said DCSD’s state-recorded teacher turnover of 17.3 percent is about 7 percent higher than the average turnover of four districts: Boulder, Cherry Creek, Jefferson County and Littleton. While that number may sound small, Weil said, it added up to 222 more teachers leaving DCSD, on average, than each of the other suburban districts in 2013-14. He pointed to academic research that indicates teacher turnover has a negative impact on students’ education. “It matters,” he said. “You want that number as low as possible.” The school district disagrees with the state’s most recent turnover figures because the CDE measures a calendar year instead of an academic year, doesn’t account for indistrict promotions or transfers, temporary employees or retirees. When those factors are included, the school district’s figures show 13.1 percent of licensed staff left the district in 2013-14. The national average for teacher turnover is also about 13 percent. DCSD notes its turnover of teachers rated highly effective and effective is less than 10 percent, allowing it “to put the very best teachers in front of students,” reads an emailed response from Hans. “With a new school year underway, DCSD continues to raise the bar in education,” reads an emailed response attributed to Benevento. “A strong school district is not dependent on a union. The district’s retention rate for highly effective and effective teachers is significantly higher than the union’s retention rate.” Weil agreed with several teachers who

If you want to get it, you’ve got to give it Before we know it, the holiday season will be upon us, and our spirit of giving will increase. We will think about the gifts that we will purchase, wrap, and give to our closest family members and friends, and we will think about giving through the many outreach programs, such as selecting a random person or family from a giving tree at church or at work. It has been said that if we are feeling low or our morale is down, the best way to pick up our own spirits is to look for ways to help someone else. I know this works because I have practiced it many times myself. Anyone who has been financially blessed can easily write a check and make a donation, and believe me, the charities all need cash. But it is when we donate our time that we make a difference both for others and within ourselves. I would like to accomplish two things in this week’s column. First, I want to introduce you to Elizabeth Billups. Elizabeth has a wonderful gift and mission in her heart to help others. She is the author of the book “The Carry Crew Concept: How to Build Crews to Carry People in Hard Times.” The book is remarkable, but her intent is even more incredible. I would like to share a little bit more about her concept through an article she has recently written, called “Help Yourself by Helping Others”: There’s nothing quite like visiting a friend who can’t breathe, eat, walk or talk on his own to help you value your own life. I have a friend who suffered from ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease. I met him and his wife while he was at the early stages of this debilitating disease. Fortunately, they trusted me enough

to let me join them on their journey for the next five years until sadly he passed away. During this time, I managed an amazing group of about 25 to 40 people who supported this couple and their two young kids by delivering meals, purchasing groceries, mowing the yard, cleaning the house and much more. People looking at my involvement in this family’s struggle may get the mistaken idea that it was I who was only helping them. When in reality, every encounter with them reminded me how healthy and lucky I was. So like I said, people may think it was I who was helping them. But my family knows the truth. Experiencing this trauma alongside our friends was extremely difficult. But it was also an experience that reminded us daily that struggles that may seem insurmountable when looked at on their own were actually, by comparison with my friend’s struggle with ALS, small road bumps on the journey of real life. And thank God for the journey. As you know, we truly could not appreciate the mountaintop views if we never traveled through the dark valleys. If you know a family that needs support, whether it is a debilitating disease or illness,

Laugh and the words laugh with you The news out of Florida this morning is horrific. I have to move away from it. I can do that in a number of ways. This is one of them: writing. Others might meditate, pray, drink, smoke dope, walk, run, shop, eat, or schedule therapy. Writing does it for me. Now if I were to write about what happened in Florida, I would be stuck in it. But I can write almost anything else, and my responsibilities in writing will take over. I have been reading some quotes about writing: Charles Bukowski’s, Mark Twain’s. Vladimir Nabokov’s. Bukowski said, “You either get it down on paper, or jump off a bridge.” I came across Bukowski when everyone else does, when I was in college. At the time he was welcome, and he still is. Each of us is an odd union of tens of thousands of things that we have seen, read, and felt. I sift constantly. What may have moved me in college might not now. But some of those attachments are still attaching themselves.

Bukowski said, “We’re all going to die, what a circus! That alone should make us love each other but it doesn’t. We are all terrorized and flattened by trivialities, we are eaten up by nothing.” If you don’t know him and decide to look him up, please know beforehand that his writing goes into a lot of dark corners. If that is true, why mention him on a day when there is horrific news out of Florida? Maybe because I don’t need to see daffodils to improve my day, or to re-read Psalm 27:4, or drink. Bukowski, an alcoholic, said, “That’s the problem with drinking, I thought, as I Marshall continues on Page 9

or maybe just a hard-luck story of lengthy unemployment, you should read Elizabeth’s book, “The Carry Crew.” The second way to feel good about yourself by helping others comes from the “We Don’t Waste” program. You can check them out online at www.wedontwaste.org. Basically, the idea is to gather all the unused food and products from local cooperating providers, which is then distributed to local shelters and food banks for distribution. I have volunteered twice to collect the uneaten food from the sky boxes at Sports Authority Field at Mile High. A team of about 20 people assembled after the game and collected enough food for more than 5,000 servings. I was simply amazed at the aggregate collection of prime rib, roast beef, chicken, ribs, hot dogs, hamburgers, sausage and desserts that were left behind. A special thank-you to Andrea and Bruce Kirchhoff and St. Luke’s United Methodist Church for all you do for this program. Need a “pick-me-up”? Look for ways to help someone else and I can assure you that your talents and gifts will shine through and be greatly appreciated. I am also pretty sure that what you get in return will pale in comparison to what you actually give. I would love to hear all about the charities and missions you support at gotonorton@gmail. com, and when we lift others up, it truly will be a better than good week. Michael Norton is a resident of Castle Rock, the former president of the Zig Ziglar Corporation, and a strategic consultant, business and personal coach.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Fracking not as safe as it sounds

We have all heard about how harmless fracking will be; it will create many goodpaying, permanent jobs … the benefits are endless. But here are facts the advocates don’t want you to know: Studies show that about 6 percent of the wells leak immediately, 60 percent over time. On Colorado’s Front Range, we have eight oil and gas inspectors and 4,000 wells in Weld County alone. Also, fracking procedures are exempt from underground injection requirements of the Safe Drinking Water Act through the “Halliburton Loophole.” And, according to the Colorado School of Public Heath, there is a direct link to birth defects in the brain and spinal cord for those living within a 10-mile proximity of gas wells when pregnant. When the drilling process starts, methane is released into the atmosphere at a rate 100 to 1,000 times the limit on EPA standards during certain stages. Methane is 21 times more effective at trapping heat than CO2. We all hear about the fracking fluid being “just sand and water; only 5 percent of the

“Our state desperately needs stronger leadership and with 48 days left to go, we are not going to let this or any other poll distract us from getting the job done and giving Colorado the leadership it deserves,” Beauprez said. But the Hickenlooper campaign blasted the Qunnipiac poll as an outlier that is “fundamentally flawed” and pointed to several other polls that show the governor leading the race. Two other surveys released on Sept 7 showed Hickenlooper with leads — one as high as 7 points. That poll was conducted by Progress New America, a Democratic-leaning poll-

ing outfit, which polled 1,350 likely voters Sept. 7-14. The other, a USA Today/Suffolk University poll, which polled 500 likely voters, had Hickenlooper up 2 points. In a statement, the Hickenlooper campaign also pointed to polling from last week by the Denver Post and NBC/Marist that also showed the governor with slight leads. “Right now we are leading in support, fundraising and polling, and that’s because folks support John’s work to help Colorado grow and strengthen our economy,” said Hickenlooper campaign manager Brad Komar. Colorado Community Media also ob-

tained a memo Komar sent to campaign staff, where he addressed the findings of the Qunnipiac poll. Komar said that the Hickenlooper campaign’s internal polling samples party registration percentages similar to those that turn out in competitive, off-presidential year elections, such as 2010. But Komar said Qunnipiac’s polling does not do that and instead the poll “weighs results entirely on party self-identification.” “Despite what an outlier poll says, the governor is in a strong position for re-election,” Komar said.

said. “We’re good at giving leads, and we work with some of these people directly to provide services for us.” While the focus is on sales, the years also have created bonds among the group. When Valerie Ness of Summit Careers stands during the Sept. 4 meeting, it’s not to offer credit for or pass along a lead — it’s to give thanks. Ness recently spent three weeks in the hospital.

“I have never been so touched by the generosity of this group,” she said. Relationships are among the keys to The Team’s success. And building them requires regular attendance. “I get after people if they miss a meeting,” Zieg said. “Otherwise, people are just going to forget about you. You’ve got to show up.

Biden urges strength to stop domestic violence Vice president speaks at agency in Denver By Vic Vela

vvela@colorado communitymedia.com Vice President Joe Biden came to Denver on Sept. 19 to urge men to stand up against domestic violence, saying that men have “an absolute obligation to intervene when you see violence taking place.” “That’s manhood,” the vice president said. “That’s being a man.” Biden gave his passionate remarks prior to taking part in a round-table discussion on domestic violence at a Safehouse Denver office on Capitol Hill. The organization provides services and shelter for battered women. Biden’s trip marks the 20th anniversary of the Violence Against Women Act, which he spearheaded as a U.S. senator. Biden recalled some pushback at the time of the legislation, saying that some used to consider domestic violence “a family matter.” The vice president thanked the press for covering that effort 20 years ago, saying the media was “the reason why we’ve been able to put a face on domestic violence.” Biden’s remarks came just a couple of hours after National Football League Commissioner Roger Goodell apologized to fans for his handling of recent incidents involving domestic violence among league stars. “I would respectfully suggest to you had what has gone on in the NFL in the last four weeks been reported in 1984, I doubt very much it would get the coverage it’s getting now,” Biden said, in a nod to the changing cultural attitudes toward domestic violence. Biden was flanked by Denver Mayor Michael Hancock and domestic-violence advocates and survivors. Hancock — whose sister was fatally shot 12 years ago following ongoing domestic violence at the hands of her boyfriend — praised Biden’s work on the issue. The mayor also touted the soon-to-be built Rose Andom Center — named after a domestic violence survivor who sat next to the vice president — which will serve as

Photo by Vic Vela a “one-stop shop” for domestic-violence victims to receive care and services. The center will have on-site police, magistrates and child and pet care services. “Our goal here today is to shed light on the issue of domestic violence in our community,” Hancock said. Biden reminded the audience that violence isn’t unique to certain groups of people. He said that gays and lesbians are also victims, as are undocumented immigrant women, who may fear deportation by going to the police to report abuse.

And Biden urged college students to step up whenever a violent act against a woman seems imminent. “Turning away when you see a fraternity brother take an obviously, completely, thoroughly drunk young woman and head to his room, you have a moral obligation — you are a coward if you do not stop him,” Biden said. Biden’s visit was also meant to call attention to a newly launched White House campaign that calls attention to domestic violence. The campaign, called “It’s on

Us,” asks every man in America to sign an online pledge to intervene in incidents involving domestic violence. Biden said one of the ways the society “wins” the fight against domestic violence is when men realize that certain actions are never acceptable. “(We win) when every young man in America knows there is not a single circumstance that exists that justifies any man in this room or this nation raising a hand to a woman, other than in self-defense,” he said.

Private school grows into new building Arma Dei Academy offers classical Christian education By Jane Reuter

jreuter@colorado communitymedia.com When Arma Dei Academy opened in a church basement in 2012, it had just nine students — seven of them children of the Christian school’s board members. Just two years later, the K-8 school started the 2014-15 academic year with 67 students reporting to a new, two-story, 16,000-square-foot building. By next year, its leaders hope to fill the Highlands Ranch school to its 135-student maximum. Family and community donors who believe in the school’s approach as firmly as its board and administrators made the dramatic growth possible. The new structure attached to the Living Way Fellowship Church, which hosted the school’s first students in its basement,

includes a music room, art room, science lab, cafeteria and library with a fireplace, among other rooms. Constructed with an emphasis on quality, teachers followed the same ideal in decorating their classrooms. Two playgrounds wrap around the back of the building, one reserved for younger kids and the other for older students. Both feature state-of-the-art equipment; the set designed for the older children includes a zipline. Four Douglas County families founded the school, which follows a classical Christian education format. The course of study emphasizes biblical teachings and incorporates a teaching model called the trivium, focusing on grammar, logic and rhetoric. Arma Dei students learn Latin and study math, science, history, art, music and classical literature. In addition to learning traditional subjects, no child leaves the school without learning how to draw, write, debate and appreciate music, principal Robi Marshall said. “We want them to be generous, won-

derful, well-rounded humans,” she said, adding that they are also taught how to “care about other people, not just themselves.” Marshall said the method is time-tested, and helped produce some of history’s greatest thinkers. “The thing I hate about education is that I always feel like they’re chasing after some new whim,” she said. “We look at, ‘What did they do in the past? Why did they turn out some of the most brilliant minds?’ “It’s recovering the lost tools. We can’t teach them everything they need to know, but we can give them the tools.” More than 40,000 students in 236 schools nationwide follow the Association of Classical and Christian Schools educational model. Educators use songs, memorization and repetition to teach young children. “I think we underestimate the power of the human brain and what a child can learn and the delight they take in learning,” Marshall said, adding that teachers

expose young children to complex subjects, such as the periodic table of elements. “We want (to teach) these young children whose minds are so supple, so as they grow older, they’ll begin to connect it.” Older students take classes in formal logic, and are taught the art of debate and communication. “We get that children are going to be pert and argumentative; their brains are starting to connect in ways they never have before,” Marshall said. “So let’s teach them how to reason soundly, to argue peaceably and with respect.” “Even though it’s academic excellence, it’s done with such love,” said Lisa Payne, the school’s admissions and marketing director. “There is also a lot of mentoring. It’s a community of the bigs taking care of the littles.” As a private school, Arma Dei receives no state funding but relies on parentfunded tuition. Annual tuition for 2014-15 is $8,550. The school also offers financial aid scholarships to qualified students.

Lockheed-built MAVEN makes it to Mars Orbiter trying to find remnants of water

Colorado Community Media is proud to bring your local community newspaper to your doorstep FREE each and every week. It takes a team of highly skilled journalists, editors, designers, marketing consultants, circulation experts and advertising support from local businesses to make this all possible.

By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@colorado communitymedia.com On Sept. 21, Lockheed Martin Space Systems took the knowledge, skill and creativity of hundreds who live in Littleton and surrounding areas and launched them into an alien orbit 138 million miles away. “This is an immense achievement for NASA and all the MAVEN partner organizations,” said Jim Crocker, a Lockheed vice president. MAVEN, of course, stands for the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN spacecraft, designed, assembled and controlled by Lockheed’s Waterton Canyon facility. It launched in November from Cape Canaveral, on a mission that sounds simple enough: Figure out what happened to the water on Mars. There are two other Mars orbiters, but MAVEN is the first dedicated to studying its upper atmosphere. It will orbit in such a way to grab samples from both the upper and lower levels, so that scientists can compare the two. Put very basically, they’ll be looking for signs of evaporated water. “There are only two places for water to go,” said Guy Beutelschies, MAVEN spacecraft program manager at Lockheed — it can either boil into space or freeze onto the surface. The two Mars rovers crawling around up there haven’t phoned home for ice skates, so up is the next place to look. “When you understand a planet’s atmosphere, you begin to understand that planet’s history,” said Nancy Jones, NASA spokesperson. The Sept. 22 event was to witness MAVEN actually reaching the Mars atmosphere after at the end of its 10-month journey, beginning about 7:30 p.m. It burned its rockets for about 33 seconds to break through before settling into a leisurely orbit, where it will stay for about a

Image courtesy of NASA Goddard Flight Center year. It takes 12.5 minutes for data to get from MAVEN to Lockheed, and no visual contact. The dozens of Lockheed employees in the mission control room waited on pins and needles for those moments between when the burn stopped and when they got confirmation that the insertion was a success. “Everything is normal,” said Tim Priser, Lockheed’s chief engineer for MAVEN. “It’s a boring word, but it’s a fantastic word in my mind.” When the words, “Congratulations, MAVEN is now in Mars orbit,” came over the intercom, there were cheers, hugs and high fives all around. “I’m about to pop,” said Priser. “It’s a blend of pride and relief.” Everyone agreed MAVEN had nailed its mission and should be well poised to start providing clues to one of the great mysteries of the universe, which the human teams on Earth can then start putting together to find the answer. “I’ve come to realize that everybody wearing one of these MAVEN T-shirts tonight thinks that they’re doing absolutely the coolest job they could be doing,” said the spacecraft’s principal investigator, Bruce Jakosky, a professor of atmospheric and space physics at the University of Colorado.

Rivals differ on battle over gay marriage Suthers’ approach scrutinized

vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com Both Cynthia Coffman and Don Quick say their positions on how to handle gay-marriage court battles are in the best interest of same-sex couples who are seeking nuptials. The two candidates for attorney general discussed gay marriage and other topics during recent, separate sit-down interviews with Colorado Community Media. Coffman, a Republican deputy attorney general, and Quick, a Democrat and former Adams County district attorney, are locked in a key down-ticket race. Coffman, who is married to U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman, touts her experience in state government and knowledge of office operations as reasons for voters to support her candidacy. For his part, Quick, a Wheat Ridge native, boasts of his Coffman Quick record as Adams County DA, including his prosecution of government corruption among officials there. The race is one of the most closely watched attorney general’s races in the country, with millions of campaign dollars having come in from outside donors. But, all of that aside, the race could come down to gay marriage. “There is no constitutional defense for treating gay and lesbian couples differently,” Quick said. “There are no second-class citizens.” But Coffman said Quick’s personal feelings about gay marriage have nothing to do with the role the attorney general plays in this issue. “I have a personal opinion about the issue, which I’m not going to share because to me, my personal opinion doesn’t matter,” she said. Current Attorney General John Suthers, a Republican who is term-limited, has defended the state’s 2006 gay marriage ban in court battles that reached new heights over the summer. In June, the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals — which has jurisdiction over Colorado cases — ruled Utah’s gay marriage ban to be unconstitutional. However, the court stayed its decision, knowing that the case would ultimately be decided by the Supreme Court. The court’s stay didn’t stop the county clerk in Boulder from issuing same-sex marriage licenses. Shortly thereafter, a state district court judge in Adams County ruled in a separate case that Colorado’s gay marriage ban is also unconstitutional. That judge also issued a stay in the decision. Despite calls from gay lawmakers and Gov. John Hickenlooper not to appeal the Adams County ruling, Suthers has taken the case to the Colorado Supreme Court. And, along the way, Suthers has waged a court battle with the Boulder County Clerk’s Office in an effort to stop it from issuing more same-sex marriage licenses. Most recently, Suthers led a group of 17 attorneys general asking the Supreme Court to take up arguments on same-sex marriage bans in Utah and Oklahoma.

Critics have said Suthers is delaying the inevitability of gay marriage. But Coffman believes her boss is doing the right thing — and that she would follow his path on his handling of this issue. Coffman said Suthers’ recent filing with the Supreme Court will end up fast-tracking the case toward a quicker resolution. When asked if one could make the argument that Suthers’ handling of the case is actually in the best interest of gay couples, because it could get the issue to the Supreme Court more quickly, Coffman said, “Yes, absolutely. I believe that.” But Quick doesn’t see how continuing to fight against gay marriage in court is helping same-sex couples realize their dreams of marriage equality. “I think for a large segment of society, not just gay and lesbian couples, but for people who have family members that are gay and lesbian couples,” it means they have to wait even longer, he said. Quick dismisses arguments against gay marriage that have nothing to do with the Constitution, especially those that cite procreation as a reason to prevent gays from getting married. “John Suthers hasn’t procreated in 30 years and I haven’t in over 20 years, but somehow I think our wives both think our marriages have value and they’re important,” Quick said. But Coffman said that perhaps Quick doesn’t understand that the role of the Attorney General’s Office is to defend the state’s laws, regardless of whether he likes them. “(U.S. Attorney General) Eric Holder has been the poster child of picking and choosing what laws to defend,” she said. “I think he has violated his oath to defend the Constitution of the United States by picking and choosing. And to me, what Don is suggesting is the same thing: `I’m going to decide what is constitutional or not.’” Coffman said Quick forgets that Suthers took heat from conservative groups when his office filed a discrimination complaint against a Lakewood baker who refused to make a wedding cake for a gay couple. Suthers’ office also defended the state’s recent Democrat-sponsored gun-control laws in a court battle this year. Quick has also been critical of Suthers for joining several other attorneys general in opposing the Affordable Care Act’s birth-control mandate — the “Hobby Lobby” case that succeeded at the Supreme Court. Quick said he “strongly believes that a woman should make her health care decisions.” But Coffman finds those arguments offensive. “We have birth control available to women, abortion is available, and to consistently try to be deceptive and inflame women on those issues, I just think it’s politics. It’s irresponsible,” Coffman said. But Quick thinks that Coffman is the one who doesn’t have a grip on what the job of attorney general is all about. He believes that an attorney general has a duty to challenge a law if he or she “has grave doubts about constitutionality of the law.” “I’ll defend laws whether I agree or disagree, but if there is an intentional targeting of a group denying them a fundamental right, then I will not defend that law,” he said.

Rock Canyon opens season with

farce

`Noises Off ’ is longtime audience favorite By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe @coloradocommunitymedia.com Rock Canyon High School in Highlands Ranch opens its theater season with Michael Frayn’s perennially popular farce, “Noises Off” at 7 p.m. on Sept. 2527 in the RCHS auditorium at 5810 McArthur Ranch Road. Students have built a revolving stage for the production, which includes four members of Thespian Troupe 7206 who were recognized in the top 20 percent nationally at the national Thespian Conference in Lincoln, Neb., last summer. Nine students traveled with director Cindy Baker to compete.

Senior Sam Molitoriss, who was the one student chosen from national applicants to run the light board for opening and closing ceremonies, is the lighting designer for this fall’s funny, complex play. Seniors Meredith Ham, who plays Belinda, and Francesca Wearsch, who is costume head, appeared in the one-act play “Jack and Jill,” chosen by the state Thespian board as the single one-act to represent Colorado at the national conference. Senior Kalle Sorbo, who plays Lloyd, was one of only 20 percent of students who attended to receive a Certificate of Accomplishment for superior marks he received, according to Baker. Two others who traveled to Nebraska, senior Lauren Yehle and junior Chris Woodley, will appear in RCHS’ next play, `Teach Me How to Cry,” on Nov. 21-22.

“Noises Off” is the story of a hapless theater company, Baker writes, which is trying to produce a play called “Nothing On.” Off-stage affairs, broken relationships and a hard-of-hearing burglar who drinks a lot impact the rehearsals, and the audience visits backstage in Act II for a look at all the in-fighting. (Actors have to learn precision comic timing here, although it may look easy to an audience.) Slamming doors, mistaken identities and a plate of sardines are involved. Other cast members are Noah Charvat, Lindsey Koehn, Zach Martin, Samantha Henry, Logan Schurr, Graham Austin and Jeremy Anderson. Crew heads include Zoe Garner, Missy Davies, Cami Brunetti, Emily Klein, Jessica Benson, Christina Enloe and Austin Cunningham. Tickets cost $8 general admission/$7 students. For information, call Baker at 303387-3160.

Mystery author continues late father’s work Anne Hillerman to speak Oct. 4 at Castle Rock library By Mike DiFerdinando

mdiferdinando @coloradocommunitymedia.com For Anne Hillerman, it wasn’t so difficult to follow in her late father’s footsteps, or his characters. The New York Times Best Selling Author will be at the Philip S. Miller Library at 6:30 p.m. Oct. 4 to discuss her 2013 book “Spider Woman’s Daughter.” Hillerman’s debut novel, a mystery set in the Southwest, follows the further adventures of the characters her father, Tony Hillerman, made famous: Jim Chee, Joe Leaphorn and Bernadette Manuelito. While touring her nonfiction book “Tony Hillerman’s Landscape: On the Road with Chee and Leaphor,” a photorich tour of her father’s Southwestern influences, one question kept getting thrown her way. “People always wanted to know if my father had left any other manuscripts or books behind that he didn’t publish” Hillerman said. “People wanted to continue the Chee and Leaphorn story and I had to tell them `no.’ He got out everything that he wrote.” As the inquiries continued Hillerman began to explore the idea herself. “I thought `I’m missing these stories too,’” she said. Anne decided by taking on one of the less explored female characters from her father’s series, Bernadette Manuelito, she could continue the stories in her own voice without losing what made the books unique to begin with. “I’m not my dad and can’t write in

Wild horses couldn’t drag me away from the Sept. 17 opening of Odysseo, the new multimedia horse, of course, extravaganza under the big top at the Pepsi Center parking lot. Despite my ever-tightening chest, an indication of how allergic I am to the magnificent creatures, I stayed the course until the last hoof had left the building. The show opened to a crowd of 2,000 who — judging by the standing ovation at the end — were blown away by the blend of equestrian arts, performing arts and high-tech theatrical effects. Sharing the colossal stage with 46 riders, acrobats, aerialists and musicians, the 62 horses stole the spotlight during this blend of equine ballet and old-fashioned rodeo tricks. The opening night also marked Odysseo’s 700th show since the inception of this equine spectacular in 2011. “The entire troupe and myself felt a very warm welcome from the Denver audience”, said Normand Latourelle, Cavalia’s founder and artistic director. “With more than 1 million spectators having been touched by the beauty and majesty of Odysseo since the beginning of this colossal adventure, we are proud to finally present this feel-good show to Denver.” Odysseo offers evening and matinee performances through Oct. 5. Tickets are available at www.cavalia.net or by calling 866-999-8111.

Rocky mascot debuts burger

Hillerman said she has agreed to write three more installments in the series and that she is working on finishing her second novel.

Registration is required for the afterhours library event. People can sign up in person at the Philip S. Miller Library, 100 S. Wilcox in Castle Rock, or online at www.douglascountylibraries.org. Books will be on sale at the event. Hillerman will also be signing books following her presentation.

Hard Rock Cafe Denver, in the Denver Pavilions on the 16th Street Mall, pays homage to Denver Nuggets’ mascot Rocky with The Rocky Burger. Created by Rocky himself, the burger is crafted with a brioche bun; two four-ounce burger patties, made of premium ground beef and brisket; two slices of pepper jack cheese; a fried egg; two strips of bacon and buttermilk fried onion strings. The Rocky Burger is served with french fries and a house-made Skittles-infused tangy barbecue sauce for dunking, as Skittles are Rocky’s favorite snack. This burger will be available at Hard Rock Cafe Denver exclusively, for a limited time. A portion of the proceeds from the $13.95 burger will be donated to Special Olympics Colorado Project UNIFY. “We are excited to partner with Rocky and the Denver Nuggets to support the Special Olympics Colorado Project UNIFY,” said Sean Finney, general manager of Hard Rock Cafe Denver. “The Rocky Burger, along with its special `dunking’ sauce, is not only delicious, but also a great way to support a very deserving cause.”

Littleton artist, historian in spotlight Jose Esquibel carves traditional religious figures By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@colorado communitymedia.com Well before he retired from a federal job, Littleton’s Jose Raul Esquibel had established a second career as a santero (a creator of religious artwork) and historian — which he continues actively today. He considers himself an artist-educator, carves traditional wooden religious figures, and lectures about his work and the history and art of others as well. On Sept. 27, he will begin a two-weekend engagement at the Denver Art Museum’s Sculpture Studio, demonstrating santo carving from noon to 3 p.m. (Also on Sept. 28 and Oct. 4-5.) It’s in the first floor of the Hamilton Building. He notes that admission is free on the first Saturday — Oct. 4. About 15 of his finished santos will be on display in the studio during this period, he says. For 21 years, Esquibel has been a Spanish-language guide at the DAM and he frequently conducts tours of the museum’s santo collection on the fourth floor of the North (Ponti) Building — as well as school tours for Spanish-speaking kids. Esquibel is a Littleton native, with family roots in northern New Mexico. He has a bachelor’s degree in history from Regis University and a master’s degree in Latin American history from Georgetown University. A number of years ago, he pursued graduate work at Hebrew University in Je-

rusalem. In past years, he has organized a number of area exhibits of santo art and lectured in conjunction with them, as well as at libraries including Littleton’s Bemis Library and Jefferson County’s Columbine branch. The depth of his scholarship is notable. Also on Sept. 27, later in the afternoon, Esquibel will be honored in “Fab 54, Fall Family Festival,” a special community event at St. Gabriel the Archangel Episcopal Churchat 6190 E. Quincy Ave. in Cherry Hills Village. He is honored at the festival because he carved a 4-foot-tall bulto of San Gabriel for the Southwestern-style church in 1997, and it is recognizing its artists. (A bulto is a figure in the round, while a retablo is a flat, bas relief panel. Either is usually painted.) St. Gabriel is the only intentionally Southwestern-style church in the Denver area and includes hand-carved doors, Esquibel said. It has work by other noted santeros including Tomas Burch (Stations of the Cross); Horacio Valdez (large retablo of San Gabriel over the votive candles); and a retablo over the baptismal font by Sister Roberta Westrick. The Sept. 27 event, from 3 to 6 p.m., is a fundraiser for the church, with an admission charge of $15. (Children under 10 free; free babysitting.) In addition to meeting the artists, visitors may enjoy a children’s art workshop with painting and Native American crafts based on stories shared by storytellers, Southwestern finger foods and drinks and live musicians. For information, contact Anne Cosby, acosby10@comcast.net.

“We’re so proud to be celebrating the 40th birthday of Wazee Supper Club,” said Lee Driscoll, Breckenridge-Wynkoop CEO. “With so many new places opening up in Denver, it’s a major celebration to recognize one of the original places that’s been serving Denver for four decades. This throwback party is our way of thanking our loyal customers who’ve been such an important part of the Wazee’s history.” Detroit natives Angelo and Jim Karagas founded Wazee Supper Club in 1974, many years before the neighborhood was nick-

named LoDo. The location received a facelift in 2012 and kept the well-known dumbwaiter, nostalgic Frigidaire and black-and-white checkerboard floors. For more information on Wazee Supper Club, visit www.wazeesupperclub.com.

Photos document world of destruction Chinese process explored in Centennial exhibit By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe @colorado communitymedia.com

“Hope has two beautiful daughters — their names are anger and courage; anger at the way things are, and courage to see that they do not remain the way they are.” — St. Augustine Shelly Au writes that he spent 17 years living in Asia. He has worked for a nonprofit organization where he has been drawn to tell stories of the people he met through photography, as well as organizing benefits for “less fortunate communities.” Three recent years were spent documenting the destruction that resulted when rapid economic development was a primary Chinese goal. “In cities throughout China, countless buildings have been marked, in red, with an eight-stroke Chinese character pronounced `chai.’” It means destroy or take down. He writes that his documentary collection of photos, on exhibit through September at Solid Grounds Coffee House, 6504 S. Broadway, Centennial, is “both a study of this merciless process and a meditation on the pain and anger of the millions of Chinese people it has displaced and dispossessed.” The people have a combination of resignation, hope and courage that allows them to persevere. The exhibit opened on Sept. 15 with a gathering of people who heard opening commentary by Au and his wife, Amy, about their experiences. They then, with help from friends, divided the audience into small groups to walk through the exhibit, which is divided into five units: “Marked for Destruction,” “Life in Chaos,” COUPON FOR $1 OFF ADMISSION “Life and Darkness,” “New Life Emerging” and “Beauty in Brokenness.” At each stop, there were discussion questions for viewers: How did photos TH them think or feel?

An Oktober celebration!

Not all dogs shared the enthusiasm of their human companion when it came to the idea of racing other dogs. This particular dachshund thought posing for pictures by the start line was a much more fun idea than trying to be the first one to finish in her heat. Photo by Ryan Boldrey

The Chalet Dancers, a group based in Castle Rock, perform German dances at the Highlands Ranch Oktoberfest. Photo by Christy Steadman Attendees of the Highlands Ranch Oktoberfest got to experience a taste of German culture Sept. 20 in Town Center. The event kicked off with the Oktoberfest 5K at 9 a.m., and the fun continued until the fireworks display in the evening. Tapping of the keg was at noon, and a big crowd pleaser this year was the dachshund races and best-dressed dog contest in the afternoon. Throughout the day, people enjoyed live German music and dancing, bounce houses and games … and, of course, German food and beer to delight the palate.

Kathy Rountree holds up Rosie, who the crowd began to affectionately call Jockey Dog, during the best dressed dog contest at the Highlands Ranch Oktoberfest Sept. 20. Rosie took second in the fashion contest, but did not get more than a foot or two past the start line when it was time to race. Photo by Christy Steadman

Collaboration at its finest. HRCA CEO Jerry Flannery enjoys a beverage at Oktoberfest, while Highlands Ranch Metro District chairman Rick Owens, center, and HRCA director Brock Norris, background enjoy the festivities as well. Photo by Ryan Boldrey Other dogs may have finished the heat already, but that didn’t stop Sean Reilly from coaxing Bernie to the finish line with a hot dog Sept. 20. It was Bernie’s second year running in the dachshund races at the HRCA’s Oktoberfest, but first year making it to the finish line. Photo by Ryan Boldrey

Women writers gather in Golden Organization now has hundreds of members By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@colorado communitymedia.com Twenty years ago, a group of women writers decided they wanted a formal organization that allowed them to meet kindred spirits and hone their craft. Among them were Sandra Dallas, Jerrie Hurd, Margaret Coel, (the late) Sybil Downing and Corrine Brown. They formed Women Writing the West, which now has about 340 members, including five or six international members. They write in many genres: fiction, nonfiction (both creative and scholarly), poetry, short stories and children’s books, and they celebrate with annual educational conferences and awards. Several south metro area writers have

been involved with planning the upcoming October conference in Golden: Joyce Lohse of Centennial, Linda Wommack of Littleton and Christie Wright of Highlands Ranch (a recent speaker at Littleton’s Bemis Library). They began planning a year ago and meet monthly with others from places such as Salida, Pueblo, Colorado Springs and north Denver. Wright and Wommack also belong to the Wild West History Association. Wommack is a Littleton native, while Wright, a former probation officer, moved to Colorado nine years ago to be near her kids. Her former profession helps her write about court language “and bad guys.” Lohse moved to the area in 1974 and writes biographies of Colorado historical characters. She is active in the Columbine Historical and Genealogical Society and will be its next president. The 2014 conference is expanded by a day to become a four-day event, beginning with registration and pre-conference events at the Table Mountain Inn on Oct.

CURTAIN TIME Family comedy

“Over the River and Through the Woods” by Joe Di Pietro plays Oct. 3-26 at Cherry Creek Theatre, which performs at the Shaver-Ramsey Gallery, 2414 E. Third Ave., Denver. Gavin Mayer is director.

Love in golden years

“The Last Romance” by Joe DiPietro plays Sept. 30 to Oct. 10 in the black box theater at the Arvada Center. Presented by Creede Repertory Theatre, directed by Christy Montour-Larson. Performances: 7:30 p.m. Tuesdays through Saturdays; 1 p.m. Wednesdays, 2 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays. Tickets: ArvadaCenter.org, 720898-7200.

World premiere

plays through Oct. 19 at the Miners Alley Playhouse, 1224 Washington Ave., Golden. Live music, original songs, directed by Jim Hunt. Performances: 7:30 p.m. Fridays, Saturdays; 6 p.m. Sundays. Tickets: $23/$20/$12, 303-935-3044, minersalley. com.

`Miscast’ is benefit The Aurora Fox, 9900 E. Colfax Ave., Aurora, is reviving a Denver theater tradition called “Miscast” in which local theatrical folks play characters they would never ordinarily be cast for. It used to be done as a benefit for a couple of theater companies which are no longer in operation. This time, the fundraiser is for the Denver Actors Fund, which helps out when an actor has unexpected medical expenses and no insurance. The single performance will be at 7 p.m. on Sept. 29, and tickets cost $10, 303-739-1970.

16. An Oct. 16 evening reception is planned at the Rocky Mountain Quilt Museum in Golden. At the reception, a quilt, created with blocks members have stitched, will be presented to the museum. Oct. 17-18 sessions will be held at the Golden Hotel, with several presentation given simultaneously, such as: “Today’s Trends in Publishing and Directions for Tomorrow”; “My Journey With the Arapahos” by Coel, who has published numerous mysteries set on the Wind River Reservation; “Getting to Know WWW” for new members; “Characters in Corsets: How to incorporate Fashion in Your Writing”; and much more. On Oct. 17, at lunch, The LAURA Awards for short stories will be given. At 5 p.m. that day, a special film showing of “The Cherokee Word for Water” will be screened at the American Mountaineering Center, with subject Wilma Mankiller in attendance. Informative sessions continue on Oct. 18, framing a Founders Luncheon, and

that evening, the top spot WILLA Award will be announced, with Sandra Dallas as keynote speaker. A bookstore with members’ titles will be open in the Golden Hotel from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Oct. 17-18. The conference will end with a festive High Tea at the elegant Briarwood Inn on the morning of Oct. 19. Costumes are suggested for this event and the Oct. 18 evening banquet. Corinne Brown will speak on Oct. 19 about “Five Early Colorado Women Who Made a Difference.” Registration is closed for this year’s conference, although the bookstore at the Golden Hotel is open to the public on Oct. 18, and the Oct. 16 evening reception at the Quilt Museum is also open to the public. The planners hope prospective members will consult the WWW website: WomenWritingtheWest.org, and consider membership. There are quarterly meetings held in the Denver area, Wommack said. Next year’s conference will be in Bend, Ore.

Mystery author continues father’s work By Mike DiFerdinando

mdiferdinando@coloradocommunitymedia.com For Anne Hillerman, it wasn’t so difficult to follow in her father’s footsteps, or his characters. The New York Times Best Selling Author will be at the Philip S. Miller Library at 6:30 p.m. Oct. 4 to discuss her 2013 book “Spider Woman’s Daughter.”

Anne Hillerman, pictured with her late father and fellow mystery writer Tony Hillerman, will be at the Philip S. Miller Library at 6:30 p.m. Oct. 4 to discuss her 2013 book “Spider Woman’s Daughter.” Courtesy photo Hillerman’s debut novel, a mystery set in the Southwest, follows the further adventures of the characters her late father, Tony Hillerman, made famous: Jim Chee, Joe Leaphorn and Bernadette Manuelito. While touring her nonfiction book “Tony Hillerman’s

Landscape: On the Road with Chee and Leaphor,” a photo-rich tour of her father’s Southwestern influences, one question kept getting thrown her way. “People always wanted to know if my father had left any other manuscripts or books behind that he didn’t publish” Hillerman said. “People wanted to continue the Chee and Leaphorn story and I had to tell them `no.’ He got out everything that he wrote.” As the inquiries continued Hillerman began to explore the idea herself. “I thought `I’m missing these stories too,’” she said. Anne decided by taking on one of the less explored female characters from her father’s series, Bernadette Manuelito, she could continue the stories in her own voice without losing what made the books unique to begin with. “I’m not my dad and can’t write in his voice, but I decided with Bernadette I could have a woman protagonist and continue on in my own way,” Hillerman said. Hillerman said she has agreed to write three more installments in the series and that she is working on finishing her second novel. Registration is required for the after-hours library event. People can sign up in person at the Philip S. Miller Library, 100 S. Wilcox in Castle Rock, or online at www. douglascountylibraries.org. Books will be on sale at the event. Hillerman will also be signing books following her presentation.

The men in the cast, in particular, present a great variety of physical and character types, which adds a layer of fun. (They can all dance.) Ponty cycles through various levels at World Wide Wicket in the course of twoplus hours and ends up in that top office, of course, through scenes with ditzy Hedy LaRue (Nicole Campbell), also a caricature — of the office sex bomb — and bossy office manager Miss Jones (Tracy Kern). His nemesis, Frump (Cory Wendling), slinks through most days, scowling and trying to cause trouble. Voices are strong and staging is clever, reflecting Wells’ tongue-in-cheek perspective. He suggests that this is “‘Mad Men’ without the angst.”

Tim Howard stars as the ambitious J. Pierrepont Finch in “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying” at Town Hall Arts Center. Courtesy photo Wells also notes in his program comments that this lighthearted musical, based on a funny guide by Shepherd Mead, opened on Broadway in 1961, won seven Tony Awards, the New York Drama Critics Award and the 1962 Pulitzer Prize for Drama. “It is a satire of ‘big business’ in an era when all executives were men, secretaries were women, sexual harassment hadn’t been noticed …” There was a successful

revival in 2011 with Daniel Radcliffe as Finch. One can see why it won awards — in spite of its goofy story, it’s tightly written by Jack Weinstock, Abe Burrows and Willi Gilbert and staged with precise timing, great dance numbers, entertaining songs and a lively score by Frank Loesser. This is a delightful production — sure to send one out smiling. It would be fun for all but the youngest kids.

Elk activity peaks in September The days are growing shorter now, the nights a little cooler, and the aspen and underbrush are bursting into shades of red, yellow, orange and gold. There may even be a light dusting of snow in the high country. It’s September, and for a few short weeks, thousands of visitors are attracted to this magical time in Colorado. It is also the time of the annual elk rut or breeding season, where the strongest bulls compete for the right to pass superior genes along to the next generation. Bulls will gather cows into a harem which they must defend night and day from other bulls attempting to lure cows away. At times the action can be intense. The countryside rings with the sounds of bugling elk, a sound or shrill of several octaves that

once heard is not soon forgotten. The larger bulls will posture themselves and display their majestic racks in an effort to attract more cows and intimidate rivals. The action peaks when a couple of mega bulls lock their massive racks in combat. The fighting can go on for quite some time until one bull overpowers the other. While these battles are serious, they rarely end in death. One of the most popular elk view-

ing areas is Rocky Mountain National Park. Within the national park, the Moraine Park and Horseshoe Park areas are favorites. It’s easy to spot the action — just watch traffic, often referred to as elk jams. The Town of Estes Park also provides some great viewing, especially around the golf course and visitor center. Early to mid-mornings and again mid-afternoons to dusk are usually the most active times, but then you never know when a testosteronecrazed bull will spring into action. For additional information, contact the Town of Estes Park Public Information Office at 970-577-3701. Tony Lane is an avid outdoorsman and wildlife photographer and the former police chief of Castle Rock.

Jaguars No. 1 for now, focused on long run Rock Canyon defeats Douglas County, 3-0, to record fifth straight shutout By Jim Benton

jbenton@colorado communitymedia.com Rock Canyon, the state’s topranked Class 5A soccer team according to the CHSAANow.com poll, looked like just an ordinary club for 40 minutes. The Jaguars’ opponent, Douglas County, also played as if it should have been ranked during the first half of the Continental League match played Sept. 18 at Douglas County Schools Stadium. After a low-key but effective halftime speech by head coach Matt Sassali, the Jaguars lived up to their ranking by breaking open a scoreless game on goals by Aaron Makikalli, Gabe Krzywdzinski and Brian Olcott to secure a 3-0 victory. Rock Canyon, last season’s state runner-up, improved to 7-11 overall and 4-0-0 in the Continental League. Douglas County slipped to 2-4-1 and 1-2-0. Krzywdzinski admitted that Rock Canyon’s recently-awarded No. 1 ranking might have had a little to do with the Jaguars’ sluggish start. “I think it sort of got into our heads,” he said. “We had to put that away and keep playing our game. After the halftime speech from our coach, we came out with more intensity and more

fire. He just talked about playing like we are a team and to play like we know how to play.” It wasn’t a heated speech. “I just said this is not how we play,” Sassali said. “We’re a highly rated team and what I saw was not a highly rated team. It was a team going through the motions. “I’ve been away from coaching for two years and it has softened me up a little bit. I’m not a yeller and screamer but it’s the way in which you deliver that message. They can read the body language. We have a senior-laden team with a lot of experience. They don’t need me to yell. They knew exactly what it was. They just needed it to be kind of directed at them.” Douglas County coach Brian Sell, meanwhile, felt his team didn’t play with the same passion in the final 40 minutes as they did in the first half. “I felt we had a similar amount of possession and more on the attack in the first half,” he said. “We had them on their heels a little bit. “They jumped on us in the second half. After halftime they came out on fire. I talked to the guys and said to be calm and do what we did and if we’re not going to win, don’t lose it. We came out flat, played flat and they jumped on us. They are a talented, organized team.” Rock Canyon, which plays ThunderRidge Sept. 25 at Shea Stadium, has outscored its opponents 15-0 in the past five games. “No. 1 at the halfway mark of the season doesn’t mean anything,” said Sassali. “The world is littered with teams that were No.

1 at the halfway mark. The only No. 1 that matters is the No. 1 in November when the whole thing is said and done. A lot of the players got a taste of it last year in the state finals. They want to be back and they know how much work it takes to get to that point. “We work real hard that the next game is the most important. Nobody else can make us No. 1, nobody else can rank us No. 1. The only way we can be No. 1 is by proving it every single day and game.” Sassali points to his defense as a reason the Jaguars have climbed to the top of the state rankings. “Right now what makes me most pleased is that we’ve had five shutouts in a row,” he said. “We started the season a little rocky on defense. We’ve started to find our feet defensively. Right now our center back combination of Makikalli and Alex Bochner, as well as our outside backs of Sean Nasseth and Andrew Greiner, have been absolutely phenomenal in limiting other team’s chances. … Our forward players Olcott, Krzywdzinski, Oliver Larsson, Cody Ross have picked it up.” Olcott is the team’s leading scorer with 11 goals and 24 points. Krzydsinski has four goals and 14 points. Three goalkeepers have notched the six shutouts recorded by Rock Canyon this season. Chris Kiger has been credited with three shutouts, Sam O’Rourke two and Shane Cunningham one. Sell feels the talent level on the top teams in Colorado is so close

Robinson tasked with rebuilding Ranch Falcons new head man led Lakewood to 2011 state title game By Jim Benton

jbenton@colorado communitymedia.com Mark Robinson is good at rebuilding but he’s not a carpenter or construction worker. He’s a football coach. Robinson, the new head coach at High-

lands Ranch, is facing the task of restoring the Falcons program, which has won just four games over the past two seasons. “The biggest obstacle you have to overcome at this point is making sure everybody still believes and buys into what you are doing so people don’t start quitting,” said Robinson. “The first thing when you get yourself in a position like this is everybody blames somebody. “We’ve got to work this thing out and make sure we don’t get into that blame game.” Ranch continues on Page 28

Rock Canyon senior Gabe Krzywdzinski has helped pace the No. 1 Jaguars with four goals and six assists through the team’s first nine games on the pitch this fall. He scored one goal and registered an assist in the Jaguars’ 3-0 win over Douglas County on Sept. 18. Photo by Ryan Boldrey that it’s hard to predict which team will win on any certain day. “I don’t see any horse leading the pack by more than a neck,” he said. “Rock Canyon is definitely

at the top of the pack year to year. They are well coached and really well organized. Their weaknesses aren’t as weak. Their weak link is still pretty strong.”

Valor aims for fourth title in six years Eagles have four golfers who could make a serious run at honors By Jim Benton

jbenton@colorado communitymedia.com Valor Christian junior Coby Welch is taking nothing for granted. In the past five seasons, the Eagles have won three state golf titles and finished second twice. And, Valor Christian is coming off a remarkable performance in the Class 4A Metro Regional where its four players finished a combined 13-under par. Valor Christian, the defending state champions, will obviously be the favorite in the Sept. 29-30 Class 4A State Tournament at Walking Stick Golf Club in Pueblo but Welch is a realist and knows his team will have to play well. “You’ve got to play consistent,” he said. “You can’t go in saying we are going to win this because we’re so good. We’re going to take it slow and just go play two consistent rounds. “I’m just hoping we can come together as a team and pull out another win and I’m hoping that by myself I can win a state championship. We all have huge potential to come together and play well.” In the Class 4A Metro Regional Sept. 18 at Raccoon Creek, Welch shot a blistering six-under par 66. Ross Macdonald carded a three-under 69 while Jake Staiano, the Jeffco Player of the Year, and Pierce Aichinger both had two-under par 70s. Welch was nine under after 15 holes in the regional but bogeyed the final three

holes. “I started off the day feeling pretty good,” he said. “I started hitting the ball good, making lots of putts, hitting it near the hole. On 16 I missed like a 3- or 4-footer. I said that’s okay I’m still playing well enough to make another birdie. I just finished bogey, bogey. I don’t know why. “I’ve played pretty good this season, the best golf I’ve ever played. I’ve had every round under par except one.” Valor coach Jason Preeo was pleased but not surprised by the Eagles’ dominating showing in the regional tournament. “They are all more than capable,” said Preeo. “Both Coby and Jake have shot 65 in a tournament this year. In the high school season Pierce’s low was 67. In a junior tournament over the summer Pierce shot 64 and 65 on back-to-back days. “Ross has probably been the most consistent. He’s won the Colorado Golf Association Junior Championship the last two years. That’s probably the biggest junior tournament in Colorado.” Preeo plans to stay out of the way of his golfers at Walking Stick. “They know the golf course, they are familiar with it,” he said. “The goal is just to stay loose and have them play as well as they are capable and not try to do too much and let the situation get the best of them. They are all so experienced it is almost just staying out of the way and let them go. “If you have kids that aren’t quite on that level you can coach them on managing the game and telling them this probably isn’t the right play. With these guys it what’s the most appropriate time to be aggressive. The ability to execute the shot allows you to be more aggressive and still be successful.”

Highlands Ranch hones in on golf title Barker thinks Falcons have a shot if they play ‘smart golf ’ By Jim Benton jbenton@colorado communitymedia.com James Barker has been doing a lot of lecturing the past two months on how to play smart golf. Barker, the coach at Highlands Ranch, figures if his young team plays smart golf at the Class 5A state tournament Sept. 29 and

30 at the Colorado Springs Country Club, the Falcons will have a chance to contend for the championship. Four-time defending state champion Regis Jesuit, Boulder, Coronado and Highlands Ranch will be the favorites to challenge for the team title on the tight, 7,030yard, par-71 course. “We’re young with three sophomores and a freshman,” said Barker. “We make a lot of birdies but we also make a lot of others. Because of our youth, we don’t always hit the smart shot. When we get in trouble we sometimes try to hit the impossible shot. We’re getting better at all that.”

Highlands Ranch lost to Coronado by one stroke in the Northern Regional Sept. 16 at Meadow Hills. Sophomore Tyler Zhang fired a 2-over-par 72 to tie for second in the regional. Sophomore Kyle Pearson carded a 74 to tie for fourth in the individual standings, freshman Jackson Crist fashioned a 75 and sophomore Ryan Pearson came in with a 77. “Colorado Springs Country Club is a setup kind of like Meadow Hills and we should be pretty good down there,” said Barker. “It’s just going to come down to which team can make the most birdies. It’s not a very difficult golf course. It’s who can

keep the ball in play, who can hit wedges within 10 feet and make a high percentage of those. “We have a good shot and so do a lot of people. Regis won our league (Continental) but we beat them a couple times. It came down to the last tournament of the league season. Coronado is a favorite because that is kind of one of their home courses down there. Grant Rodgers plays for Boulder and he shot a 65 at Wellshire. So Boulder is in the hunt. There might be another team or two but it could come down to Regis, Highlands Ranch, Coronado and Boulder.”

Sisters spark softball squad at Vista Gonzales girls hit twothree for Golden Eagles By Jim Benton

jbenton@colorado communitymedia.com There’s a sister act atop the Mountain Vista batting order this softball season. Junior Jessica Gonzales, the Golden Eagles’ leftfielder, was hitting second in Mountain Vista’s 10-1 loss to Rock Canyon on Sept. 17. Jessica’s younger sister, freshman Rebecca Gonzales, hit third in the lineup and played first base. Mountain Vista collected seven hits in the loss to Rock Canyon and the Gonzales sisters each had two singles to account for over half the hits. “It’s been a great season for the Gonzales family,” said the girl’s father Ron Gonzales. “We can sit down and watch them play at the same time which is great. They do enjoy playing with each other but because they are competitive

they do bring out the best in each other. And they still support each other which is terrific.” The sisters are different. Jessica is smaller and faster. Rebecca is left-handed and has the ability to develop into a power hitter. However, the competitiveness is the same in both girls. Rebecca admits that at times competitive instincts take over and comparisons of statistics, key hits and beneficial defensive plays enter the conversations with her sister. “We do that,” said Rebecca. “I’m very competitive with her. But it’s a lot a fun to play with her.” Jessica, a sprinter on the track team, was hitting .316 through 14 games with four stolen bases. Rebecca, one of four freshmen to have seen time for the Golden Eagles (6-8, 2-3 Contintenal) this season, had a .311 batting average with 11 runs batted in, five doubles and one triple. Being a leader on the field as a freshman takes a special player. “I was intimidated for a couple

weeks but not anymore,” admitted Rebecca. “You do have to make impressions. I think I’m doing pretty well.” Jessica never had a doubt that she would be playing with Rebecca this season. “I know how good she is and she’s a hard worker,” said Jessica. “I’m really proud of her. I just try to be her biggest fan on the team and motivate her and help her get better.” Mountain Vista coach Bret Grammerstorf raves about his sister combination. “Rebecca has been probably our best player this year,” he said. “She’s a sparkplug. She the most consistent person we’ve had. She hasn’t made an error at first base. She’s saved us numerous times. We’ve hit her in the one and three spots. It’s fun to watch her.” Jessica hasn’t gone unnoticed either. “Jess has a good job,” said Grammerstorf. “She’s done a good job in leftfield and made some good defensive plays. For her size, she’s done a heck of a job.

Freshman Rebecca Gonzales, a Mountain Vista first baseman, and her sister, junior leftfielder Jessica Gonzales, right, hit back to back in the Golden Eagles lineup. Photo by Jim Benton She can’t drive the ball like some of the bigger kids but she does an outstanding job of putting the ball in play. She uses her speed and beats it out. She works hard at the top of the lineup.

“Right now her and her sister are hitting two and three. It’s fun to have them both working hard doing the things they are doing and giving up a little bit of a spark.”

SALOME’S STARS FOR THE WEEK OF SEPT. 22, 2014

ARIES (Mar 21 to Apr 19) An offer to help with a stalled project should reassure you that you have a workable plan in spite of the problems in getting it up and running. The week’s end brings more positive news. TAURUS (Apr 20 to May 20) A past problem about a workplace situation re-emerges early in the week. Talking things out helps ease tensions by midweek, but some hurt feelings could linger a few more days. GEMINI (May 21 to Jun 20) YOptimistic aspects dominate your efforts. However, expect to confront some criticism, some of which might be valid, so keep an open mind. But overall, it’s your views that will count.

CANCER (Jun 21 to Jul 22) Social interaction with new people, especially on the job, could be a bit strained in the early part of the week. But the awkwardness passes as you get to know each other better. LEO (Jul 23 to Aug 22) Expect news about a followup to a workplace change that could make a difference in your career path. Meanwhile, new friends widen the circle for all you Social Lions who love to party. VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22) Enjoy your well-earned plaudits for a job well done. But be aware that some people might not share your colleagues’ admiration, and you might have to work harder to win them over. LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) It’s a good week to recheck your probably already overlong “to do” list and decide what to keep and what to discard. Lose the clutter and focus your energy on what’s really important. SCORPIO (Oct 23 to Nov 21) This is a good time to take a new perspective on what you’ve been offered. Expanding your view could help to uncover any plusses or minuses that weren’t apparent at first. SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 to Dec 21) Many of the tougher communication barriers between you and others in the workplace or at home could begin breaking down this week. Expect some surprises to emerge. CAPRICORN (Dec 22 to Jan 19) So what if fate throws some obstacles in your path this week? Just keep in mind that the sure-footed and resolute Goat can get past any barrier by focusing on the goals up ahead. AQUARIUS (Jan 20 to Feb 18) This week calls for better communication with people in both your private life and the workplace. Start by asking questions, and then pay close attention to the answers. PISCES (Feb 19 to Mar 20) Potentially beneficial workplace changes could be closer than you realize. Make sure you know what’s going on so that you’re not left high and dry when the good things happen. BORN THIS WEEK: You’re not timid about pushing to have your aims realized once you’ve set your mind to accomplishing your goals. © 2014 King Features Synd., Inc.

Ranch Continued from Page 25

Highlands Ranch is a program that averaged over seven wins a season between 2006 and 2011, but fell off the last two years. Robinson comes to the Falcons from Lakewood, where he rebuilt that program and helped lead the Tigers to the 2011 Class 5A state championship game. “It took a few years at Lakewood,” admitted Robinson. “It’s almost exactly the same position (here) that we were in at Lakewood.” Doherty Athletic Director Chris Noll was blunt when asked about Robinson prior to the Highlands RanchSpartans game Sept. 12 at Shea Stadium. “They have hired the right guy,” said Noll. Highlands Ranch Athletic Director Bruce Wright expressed the same opinion. “It is tough to rebuild, it is a challenge,” he said. “We brought (Robinson) in to do that because Mark has been very successful. He’s actually a member of the Highlands Ranch community. They have lived here for a long time. He knows a lot of kids that are here. We have a fairly strong freshman class. The kids are excited.” Robinson is still looking for his first win as Highlands Ranch coach. The Falcons dropped to 0-4 following a 5630 loss to unbeaten Doherty and a follow-up loss to Legend, 19-7, last weekend. They open league play Sept. 27 when they host Fruita Monument at 1 p.m. “Part of the problem, and you see it with so many different teams when you haven’t had a lot of success for a couple seasons, it is almost like winning is contagious. Losing also becomes that way,” Wright said. “You’ve got to overcome that too, but what I’ve seen from day one with Mark being here, these kids have worked hard. He’s definitely on the right track. The kids love him. We’re going to get there. It’s kind of like the momentum in a game. You have to change the momentum. That’s definitely what he’s doing.” Most times, however, the rebuilding is tough. “It’s very difficult,” said Robinson. “You are trying to put in a whole new system. We really got started a little late. We’ve been basically going since June. Everything is brand new, offense and defense. The big thing when you are trying to do something new is to make sure that you just continue to get up, go to work and you believe in what you are doing and you keep working at it. “I’ve seen some progress. There are definitely some players who are buying in, they are trying real hard. The big thing is we just have to have that one kid that steps up and can make that play for us.” Highlands Ranch turned the ball over four times against Doherty, had a high snap over the punter’s head result in a Spartans’ touchdown, missed tackles on several runs and lost starting senior quarterback Reed Maverick with an injury on the fourth play of the third quarter. “You can’t turn the ball over, especially when you are a team trying to turn things around,” said Robinson. Maverick completed 7-of-9 passes for 132 yards with one interception before leaving the game holding his shoulder. He completed a 49-yard scoring pass to Zeke Dynes and also rushed for a touchdown. Sophomore running back Kobe Eller ran for 122 yards on 21 carries and scored once. Sophomore linebacker Hunter McKee, senior Tanner Minch and senior Drew Larsen, led the Falcons defensive effort. McKee had nine solo tackles, Minch seven and Larsen six.
