Entities wrangle over Baker’s annexation County wins round one By Pat Hill
phill@coloradocommunitymedia.com In the ongoing legal battle between the city of Woodland Park and Teller County, the county scored a victory last week. At issue is the county’s challenge to the annexation by the city of 1.84 acres for a recycling center on West Street. While the city approved the annexation, the county challenged the decision, citing a lack of contiguity as the parcel is not physically connected to the current city limits. According to court documents, the city moved to dismiss the case brought by the county, based on the county’s filing a motion to reconsider outside the allowable 10day time limit. The city contends that the annexation was effective within a shorter timeline, governed by a city ordinance. But the county asserts that, under Colorado Revised Statutes, the annexation only became effective after the legal documents were filed with the clerk and recorder.
In ruling that the county is within its rights to pursue the action, District Judge Ed Colt said, “It is undisputed that the city did not file some of the documents required by C.R.S. 31-12-113 until Sept. 13, 2013.” The county’s attorney, Chris Brandt, announced the decision at the commissioners’ meeting Jan. 7. “The court found that we were timely and therefore, the court denies the motion to dismiss the case,” he said. With the ruling, the case will move forward with the final decision on whether the annexation will become permanent or will be voided. While all officials have declined to comment on the case, Woodland Park City Manager David Buttery did offer a tidbit. “We are going to hold an executive session, with (legal) counsel, Jan. 16 to decide the next steps,” he said. Jay Baker owns and operates Teller County Waste on the same property. Mike Perini, of Perini & Associates, speaks for Baker: “The judge has requested that a more thorough evaluation of the case is required. Teller County Waste remains committed to the annexation process,” Perini said.
The newest addition to the city of Woodland Park, Teller County Waste, has submitted plans to improve the distant lot, Waste Management’s containers are in the foreground on another property, and create a recycle material drop-off location. The Woodland Park Council voted 6-1 to annex the property on Thursday night, Aug. 15, after two lengthy and contentious public hearings. Photo by Rob Carrigan
Residential care facility gets first nod Program helps women addicted to prescription drugs By Norma Engelberg Contributing writer
Colorado ranks second in the nation when it comes to prescription drug abuse. With that statistic, Judith Ann Miller, founder and CEO of Courage to Change, launched an explanation of the program she plans to use to help professional women get their lives, jobs and relationships back. Contingent upon approval from Woodland Park officials, first the planning commission at its Jan. 9 meeting and then the city council in meetings on Jan. 16 and Feb. 6, Miller, who has a doctorate in human development and family relations and is a licensed psychotherapist, plans to buy the 4,458-square-foot home at 115 Trull Road from its current owners Rick and Kathy Hobbs to use as a residential care facility. The home is big enough to care for eight women at a time. There would be at least two staff members present during the day and Miller would be the full-time resident and nighttime supervisor. Besides therapists, the staff will also include a medical doctor. To use the home this way, Miller has to get approval for a conditional use permit. City planner Lisa Parnell said this meeting was the first time the city has used its Residence Care Home Criteria, Section 18.33.130 of the city code. She said neighbors were notified and a neighborhood meeting,
At far left. Judith Ann Miller is the founder and CEO of Courage to Change, a residential care program for people recovering from drug addiction. She hopes to open a care facility In Woodland Park to treat professional women who are addicted to prescription drugs. She pleaded her case for a conditional use permit before the Woodland Park Planning Commission on Jan. 9. Photos by Norma Engelberg which no neighbors attended, was held. A few people called her office with concerns, but these were allayed when it was pointed out that the women enrolled in the program are addicted to prescription drugs and not street drugs and would wish to remain anonymous. They would be unlikely to cause any trouble. The planning staff recommended approval of the conditional use permit. Parnell said
POSTAL ADDRESS
the home met all of the pertinent criteria both as a residence care home and as a conditional use. The home, which sits on a 2.5acre lot, is fairly isolated; its nearest neighbor is more than 200 feet away from the property line. It has a working security system and none of the clients will have access to vehicles so parking and traffic will not be issues. Courage to Change is a private nonprofit organization that
was formed in 2004. It is licensed by the Colorado Department of Human Services, Division of Behavioral Health. The program rests on holistic care for both brain and body, not as parts but as a whole. Miller quoted Doctor Nora D. Volkrow, director of the National Institute on Drug Abuse since 2003, who said drug addiction is a brain disease and that recovery is a matter of treating the brain and not the symptoms.

Sharon Roshek represented Carol Sturman of Sturman Industries in a minor subdivision case at the Jan. 9 Woodland Park Planning Commission meeting. Addiction recovery is more than just 12 steps, Miller said. “They need to be able to count to 12 to do the program,” she said, adding that recovery includes the care and feeding of the brain and the rebalancing of neurotransmitters, the brain and body’s communication system.

If Gateway wins a $350,000 grant from Great Outdoors Colorado the field behind the playground will have a rubber mulch surface.
Aiming for a grant Playground to get artificial turf if funds awarded By Pat Hill
phill@coloradocommunitymedia.com The students and parents at Gateway Elementary School are dreaming of a super-duper safe playground that includes a field with artificial-turf surfacing. The field project depends upon the school’s winning a $350,000 grant from Great Outdoors Colorado. The deadline for submission is in March. On the bright side, the school is one up on providing funds for a cash match, courtesy of $50,000 from the Colorado Public Health and Environment. The initial funding is for installing rubber mulch underneath the playground equipment. “It’s a form of safety surfacing with recycled tires,” said Christine Fischer, who is writing the grant for the school. “The surface is spongy, soft and safe.” Unlike wood fiber on playgrounds, rubber mulch does not freeze in the winter.

The field surfacing is the second project at the school and, if completed, will be shared with the city’s park and recreation department. With the loss of Kavanagh Field as a result of the expansion of Our Lady of the Woods Catholic Church, the field project is crucial. “It will be great for the school and the kids every day, great for people who use the Playpark (adjacent) and great for the community and for park and rec,” Fischer said. “Right now the field is dirt and rocks, with mud half the year.” While the project is expected to be funded almost entirely by the grant, members of the community as well as parents have also contributed. The project includes a shade pavilion and a bear-proof trash can provided by Colorado Parks and Wildlife. The grant application is co-sponsored by the city of Woodland Park which is donating the use of maintenance equipment for the field. To introduce the project and solicit comments, the school and the city host a public meeting from 6 to 8 p.m. Jan. 15 at the Ute Pass Cultural Center.

Board approves McArthur as town manager By Pat Hill
phill@coloradocommunitymedia.com The waiting is over. Rob McArthur was named town manager of Green Mountain Falls in a 4-1 vote by the board of trustees Jan. 7. Mayor Lorrie Worthey, who has opposed creating the position as well as McArthur’s appointment, voted no. Trustee Tyler Stevens was not present. Trustee Howard Price, who has expressed his support for McArthur, was also absent. Trustees Jane Newberry, Margaret Peterson, Mac Pitrone and Ralph LoCascio voted in the affirmative. The board sealed the vote after an executive session with the town’s new attorney Matt Krob. However, in the first order of business, the board approved the second reading of the ordinance establishing the position of a town manager. Worthey voted no while the four trustees voted yes. From the audience, Mike Lohman said the Concerned Citizens would be filing a referendum to place the ordinance issue on the ballot. The Concerned Citizens have opposed the measure, as well as the appointment of McArthur, for the past several months. In addition to the referendum, the group has submitted petitions to recall
five trustees, Newberry, Peterson, Pitrone, LoCascio and Price. The recall has been revived from past efforts by the group. “I have been asked by the citizens to step down as the election official,” said Chris Frandina, the town’s clerk and treasure. However, the recall and referendum depend upon the citizens’ collecting enough signatures to hold an election. In the meantime, the clerk and recorder’s office in El Paso County is preparing an intergovernmental agreement with the town to conduct the election, should it take place. “They’re doing a lot of work for us,” Peterson said. “I want everyone to understand that this is going to be a major cost for us and everybody needs to think about what they’re doing.” Because the municipal election is in April, Pitrone, Newberry and Peterson will be term-limited; therefore, the recall would have no effect. “Zippo,” Frandina said. “It’s just going to add a lot of confusion.” In other business, McArthur announced that the closing date to purchase the land for the new town hall had been moved up a month. The next meeting of the board, which will include details on the recall election, will be Jan. 21.
McArthur gets down to business By Pat Hill
phill@coloradocommunitymedia.com Twelve hours after being named the town manager of Green Mountain Falls, Rob McArthur is back to business as usual. “I think the people will find that the transition is going to be quite subtle; I’m still the public works director,” he said. “The only thing that has changed is they have acknowledged that I now have the authority to do the project management, the grant writing and everything else.” McArthur’s most recent successful grant is securing $500,000 from the Department of Local Affairs for construction of the new town hall. In February 2012, the historic building was destroyed by arson; two men were found guilty and are now serving time in the state prison. The fire is one of three disasters to hit the town, the Waldo Canyon Fire in 2012 followed by severe flooding this summer. “We still have flood repairs to do and will through April,” he said. “The function of public works is providing safe roadways, parks and recreational opportunities.” With the new responsibilities McArthur is including administrative decisions in his job description. “That’s where we had to bridge that gap,” he said. “That’s what the board did last night. I work for the board of trustees.” Disasters aren’t the only things that affect quality of life in Green Mountain Falls, a town known for its scenic beauty, hiking trails, Gazebo Lake and the Black Bear, Mucky Duck and The Pantry restaurants. In accordance with a citizens’ survey in 2011, McArthur said, the roads have been improved, the chamber of commerce has been revived, a mill levy passed and the Green Box Arts Festival, founded by
CORRECTION The correct name for the veterinary clinic that provided refuge for the Great Dane, Brutus, is Animal Clinic of Woodland Park.
Christian Keesee, is putting the town on the regional arts map. “We’re writing more grants, getting more projects,” McArthur said. After voting to approve McArthur’s appointment, trustee and Mayor Pro-tem Jane Newberry approves the arrangement. “I think that having a town manager ushers in a new and exciting time for Green Mountain Falls. The manager will be a team leader for the staff, liaison for the citizens and a great resource for the board,” she said. “Rob McArthur has been loyal and innovative and has brought in more than $2,000,000 in grants and/or savings for the municipality. I’m so happy the citizens stepped up to voice their support for Rob. I have every confidence in Rob and I’m sure he’ll do a great job.” Newberry was referring to all of the supportive letters, as well as public expressions of support in December. Caught at the post office, trustee Mac Pitrone added his kudos. “I think it’s a great move that will simplify things,” he said. “An eight-year employee, Rob knows the town back and forth. He is loyal to a fault.” The idea of a town manager was endorsed by CIRSA, the town’s insurance company; the Department of Local Affairs; Pikes Peak Area Council of Governments and Colorado Municipal League, Pitrone added. McArthur was given a three-year contract that includes provisions for graduated severance packages if the arrangement proves unsatisfactory. As the new manager, McArthur retains his same annual salary, $42,000. “I think we’ve turned a corner; the future is looking pretty bright right now,” McArthur said.
Rob McArthur has added another job title to “Public Works Director.” Named town manager by the board of trustees Jan. 7, McArthur considers the vote a move forward for the town besieged by controversy lately. Photo by Pat Hill

Commissioners roll up their sleeves By Pat Hill
phill@coloradocommunitymedia.com Teller County Commissioner Marc Dettenrieder set the tone for 2014 at the first meeting of the year Jan. 7. “I’m enthusiastic, fired-up and optimistic,” he said. However, there was a slight tinge to Dettenrieder’s optimism, particularly as it relates to the legislative session that began last week. “It’s paramount that we continue to protect the interests of Teller County to ensure that any proposed legislation will not negatively impact our county, our businesses, our citizens,” he said. “We stand ready to fight if need be.”
Referring to the lingering damage from the flooding last year, Dettenrieder announced that $5.2 million in grants is available for landowners, with the deadline for application March 13. Known for his collegial personality, Dettenrieder emphasizes the role of cooperation in making decisions and protecting the interests of the county. “In 2014 I will continue to work toward building positive relationships, not only with my colleagues, our staff, our department heads, elected officials and most importantly, our Teller County citizens,” he said. Commission chair Dave Paul has warn-
ing signs in his eyes as he talks about the legislative sessions. “They (legislators) tried to do things last year that directly affected us,” he said. Last year Paul spoke against SB 252, to no avail as voters passed the measure that requires rural electric companies to increase power from renewables by 20 percent by 2020. “We’re just now starting to see our electric bills go up,” he said. “That kind of legislation is what we have to go up and pay attention to. SB 252 is not good for anybody, commercial or residential.” Commissioner Norm Steen, whose role is to be involved in transportation issues

phill@coloradocommunitymedia.com In a town where high-school athletes have to drive down the pass to hone their skills, the opening of High Altitude Baseball and Conditioning in Woodland Park fills gaps. “This is an effort to try and provide another place for kids to go,” said Neil Levy, who spent part of the holidays overseeing the installation of three batting lanes in the facility on Aspen Garden Way. Energized by possibilities for the new business, Levy envisions sleepovers for teenagers, whiffle-ball tournaments, an indoor driving range or a venue for other high-school sports. “We could push the nets aside and use the room for soccer practice,” he said, adding that he’s open to suggestions. As word spreads like wildfire about the facility, high-school coaches are on board while a Woodland Park resident has offered to teach soft-pitch softball, Levy said. To launch the new venture, Levy hosted a free hitting clinic with former baseball professionals Jan. 4. “These are guys who still work with major-league baseball players,” he said. Two days before the event, at least 30 children had signed up for the clinic. The facility is versatile, with two batting lanes for pitching and hitting while one lane is reserved for girls and younger children. “Girls hit 40 to 50 feet and highschool boys can hit 60 feet,” Levy said. With closed-circuit videos downloaded onto CDs, players can learn and improve their skills by critical observation. “They can take the CDs home,” Levy said. The conditioning part of the twopronged business includes a workout room with stationary bicycles and exercise machines. “Cord Prettyman (personal trainer) is going to help me develop programs that include core stretching and body-weight workouts,” Levy said. In addition to providing another venue for kids, Levy has his eye on the prize.
Colter Streck plans to use the new batting cages in Woodland Park while on Christmas break. Streck is on the baseball team at McPherson College in McPherson, Kansas. Neil Levy has opened the batting cages east of Safeway on Aspen Garden Way. Photo by Pat Hill “The big-picture goal is to help make our athletics more competitive up here,” he said. “We want our athletes to be faster and stronger.” Another motivation is to help children decrease the cost of practice to keep up their skills. “A lot of kids are spending 50 bucks to drive down to the Springs for a
hitting lesson,” he said. With expenses related to the business around $2,700 a month, there will be a charge for use of the facility. “I’m not trying to make money I’m just trying to recoup the cost of the rent,” he said. “We’ll have prices for teams and individuals, along with punch cards for 10 hours at $90.”
The business is a family affair that includes Paula Levy and the couple’s sons, Max, Sam and Lou. As well, Levy credits people in the community who helped get the facility up and running: Sam Hedges, Lorenzo DiSalle, Mike Schommer and Butch Graham.
Volunteers needed for American Cancer Society Relay in Teller County
IREA is proposing changes to our Rates, Rules and Regulations.
Staff report
· These proposed changes do not include a rate increase
The American Cancer Society Relay For Life is seeking volunteers in Teller County – walkers, cancer survivors, caregivers, community leaders, anyone who wants to make a difference – to organize and recruit fundraising teams, garner community support, coordinate logistics, seek refreshments and prizes, plan entertainment and lend a hand to ensure the success of the 2014 event. The first volunteer committee meeting will be held in the community room at the Peoples Bank in Woodland Park on Jan. 23 at 6:30 p.m. The meeting will begin the planning process for the Teller County Relay For Life event, which supports the American Cancer Society’s mission of saving lives by helping people stay well, by helping people get well, by finding cures and by fighting back against the disease. Relay For Life events are held overnight as individuals and teams camp out at an athletic track, park or other gathering area, with the goal of keeping at least one team member on the track or pathway at all times throughout the evening. Teams do most of their fundraising prior to the event, but some teams also hold creative fundraisers at their camp sites during Relay. Relay brings together friends, families, businesses, hospitals, schools, faith-based groups ... people from all walks of life – all aimed at celebrating the lives of those who have had cancer, remembering those lost, and fighting back against the disease. “Relay For Life is all about our community uniting with the American Can-

The long, dry spell comes early to Colorado Prohibition or “the long dry spell’ came early to all of Colorado in January 1916, and in some communities here, booze was illegal even before that. “Along with six other states, Colorado passed prohibition three years before most of the rest of the nation, led largely by a crusade of religious leaders and women voters,” wrote Michael Madigan in “Heroes, Villains, Dames & Disasters: 150 Years of Front-Page Stories from the Rocky Mountain News.” “It was estimated that 1,615 saloons and dramshops and 12 breweries were immediately put out of business.” Many could never forgive such nonsense, and in the company of thousands of others, sought “alternatives.” But other “dry” cities struggled with the question long before that. Colorado Springs for example outlawed liquor from day one. City founder Gen. William Jackson Palmer had forbidden liquor from being
made or sold anywhere in the city. “Palmer wanted to create an attractive, orderly city that would appeal to new settlers, as opposed to some of the wilder communities in the West with their saloons,” a Gazette article quoted Matt Mayberry of the Colorado Spring Pioneers Museum. “But people still want their alcohol and will come up with inventive ways to get around the law.” Enter the practice of using booze as medicine. With a prescription from a doctor, a
‘patient’ was allowed to buy a quart of whiskey. According to most reports, many a resident in the town suffered from ‘snake bite’ and required a dose from the pharmacy. “More people are bitten by snakes than in any town of this size I know of,” noted a writer for the Pueblo Chieftain in the 1880s of its Northern neighbor. “It is a little remarkable with what facility a man can get a prescription for snakebite in such a temperance town.” By the turn of the century, many of the local pharmacies in Colorado Springs had dispensed with the formality of a doctor’s prescription and were quietly pouring drinks at fountain counters. Perhaps you would be required to order a ‘nectar’ or ‘wild strawberry’ by code word but the concoction was generally familiar and refreshing when it arrived from the ‘jerk.’ The profits involved allowed pharmacy owners to pay any steep fines, or legal fees to keep the business rolling and the liquor
flowing in most cases. But by the first of January, 1916, the entire state was once again legally prohibited from selling spirits. “Pueblo, Colorado Springs, Boulder, Cripple Creek and all the mountain and other towns went dry at midnight without ceremony,” according to the front page of the Rocky Mountain News. “Most saloons closed their doors before the final hour.” And in Denver proper. “Toward midnight an immense throng gathered on Curtis Street and other streets in the downtown business section, tooted horns and in other ways welcomed in the New Year.” The same article observed however that some folks were prone to skirt such laws. “Meanwhile, the citizens who were loath to break ancient habits with the stroke of the clock were well provided. For days gurgling packages have accompanied the homeowner to the legal security of his cellar.”
Baseball Hall of Fame is greatest of them all The baseball Hall of Fame class of 2104 was announced on Jan. 8. To my delight, pitchers Greg Maddux and Tom Glavine received more than 90 percent of the vote and will be enshrined into Cooperstown this summer. Also elected in his first year of eligibility was first baseman/designated hitter Frank Thomas, who got 84 percent of the vote. Not making it on his second try was Craig Biggio, who fell two votes shy of the required 75 percent. Other worthy candidates — in my opinion — falling short were Mike Piazza, Tim Raines, Alan Trammell, Curt Schilling, Jeff Kent, Mike Mussina, Larry Walker, Don Mattingly, Fred McGriff and Jack Morris. The PED guys — or those suspected of being PED users — on the ballot that have been a hot topic of conversation for a while include Mark McGwire, Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens, Sammy Sosa, Rafael Palmeiro, Eric Gagne and Jeff Bagwell. Yes, I am aware that Piazza has been thrown into that mix, but very little has been mentioned on his involvement compared to the rest of the alleged abusers. I am not eligible to vote for the Hall of Fame, but I can confidently say that I have probably covered more professional

My long career as a baseball writer doesn’t make me an expert, but as a historian of the game I think I know my stuff better than most. We all have our opinion on players who have used steroids and other performance enhancing drugs. Long before it was “cool” — as in Jose Canseco cool — to use PEDs, players used to pop greenies (uppers) and do hard drugs like cocaine (that was mostly common in the 1980s) to try to gain an edge.

quences of the long and grueling season. There was a time, of course, when the common choice of drug among many players was beer and hard liquor. Numerous superstars, like Mickey Mantle to Don Newcombe, had their careers adversely affected by spending too much time in the bottle and holding down bar seats. Oddly, one of the hardest drinkers of them all, Babe Ruth, was so talented and so dominant that he was seemingly not affected by his lifestyle. Imagine just how good the Babe might have been if he didn’t have to play with a hangover his entire career. It has been said that Ruth is the alcoholic home run champion; Hank Aaron is the organic home run champion; and Barry Bonds is the anabolic home run champion. Take that for what it’s worth. Baseball is the greatest game of them all for a variety of reasons. The hardest thing to do in any sport is to hit small white ball (about 9 inches in circumference) traveling upwards 100 miles per hour, with rounded piece of lumber, when you have less than one-third of a second to react. Throw in the fact that these players are in a loud stadium with 50,000 people watching — sometimes at night under
lights, in the shadows, in the rain, or in the brightness of day — and this already difficult task becomes more complicated than landing a man on the moon. Oddly, baseball is the only game where the defense has the ball. Think about that, in every other that sport the offense has the ball. The difference between a .300 hitter and .275 hitter over the course of a baseball season is one hit per week. That’s one extra dribbler down the line, one Texas Leaguer that falls over the shortstop’s head, one seeing-eye single past the second baseman. So why is it that we, as an American society, care way more about who gets elected to the baseball Hall of Fame than any other sport’s elite ring of honor? I think it is because baseball has been around (as we know it) for 175 years and there is so much tradition and so much history. The numbers mean something to us. A .300 hitter; a 40 home run season; a 20-win pitcher; 100 RBIs. Baseball is an acquired taste. It is relatively easy to play. All you need is glove, Summers continues on Page 7
What weather problems? As the weather gets interesting, the idea that this is the worst there has ever been gets passed around. This is seldom true. We keep records to prove that, but how often are they consulted? I have talked about bad weather here before, but I ran across another interesting bad weather incident. This story was told by Judge John Easter on the anniversary of a bad storm at Palmer Lake in 1858. The judge was one of the first to arrive at Cherry Creek, now Denver. He built one of the first cabins there. He, on this occasion before gold had been discovered, was traveling with a group of soldiers that were heading from Fort Garland to the fort at Laramie. The troops had been harassed along the way by Indians. On the ridge at Black Forest they camped on Black Squirrel Creek during a snowstorm. In the blinding snows the soldiers took shelter as best they could. The soldiers remained isolated in the storm and when it broke they found themselves scattered all along the ridge. In the area they worked to gather the stragglers and find food. The day started with scattered clouds and patchy blue skies and seemed to be improving. As often happens in this area, as evening approached, the storm returned. The group had still not found all of their members. The forest and the rocky ridges provided the only shelter from the storm. Throughout the afternoon and into the night the wind and snow increased. The storm lasted for days. The morning
of the third day the sun came out, and the wind eased up. The snow buried some of the tents, and on level ground the snow was 4 feet deep. Drifts in the trees were as tall as men. In searching for the scattered soldiers a small cluster of four men were found frozen. Sixty pack mules were scattered in the forest as well, but a dozen or so were found frozen. As soon as they could they reorganized and started to move down the other side of the ridge toward the north. In the area on the Cherry Creek, where gold would eventually be found, they paused to regroup, eventually making their way up into Wyoming territory to Fort Laramie. It is difficult to say if this storm was really the worst. This storm was in May, and the experienced residents in this area know how bad a spring storm can be. These soldiers were probably not really prepared for such a storm. Having food and shelter makes the difference. So, when you hear about the “worst storm” it may be bad — but it may not really be the worst!

Sleep deprivation once again Are you finding yourself a little low energy these days? How about irritable and edgy? Perhaps, you’re a little sleep deprived. If so, you have plenty of company with an estimated 50 to 70 million Americans struggling with chronic sleep disorders and millions more who are sleep deprived because of excessive work and social commitments. The most common symptoms of sleep deprivation are fatigue, lack of physical energy, irritability and edginess, an inability to tolerate stress and difficulty with concentration and memory. Other symptoms include frequent infections, blurred vision and behavioral, learning and social problems. If that sounds like you, you can go the route of over-the-counter sleep aids or join the millions who use pharmaceuticals in an effort to get a decent night of shut-eye. Or you can start by checking off the following list of non-pharmaceutical suggestions offered by the experts at the
Mayo Clinic. Unwind. If you lead a busy life, slow the pace of your activities in the evening. An alert mind makes relaxing more difficult. Keep it quiet. Close your bedroom door or create a subtle background noise to help mask other noises. Get comfy. Make sure you have a bed that’s comfortable and keep your bedroom temperature at a comfortably cool level. Limit time in bed. Too much time in bed can promote restless sleep. Nine out of 10 people with insomnia stay in bed longer than necessary. Don’t try to sleep. If you haven’t fallen
asleep after 20 minutes, get up and watch TV or read until you become drowsy and then, go back to bed to fall asleep naturally. Try to maintain a set time for going to bed and rising. Don’t change your rising time in the morning, just because you had a bad night’s sleep. Hide the clock. A visible readout of how long you’ve been unable to sleep can make you needlessly anxious. Avoid or limit caffeine, nicotine and alcohol. All three substances can keep you from falling or staying asleep Watch what you eat before sleep. Avoid heavy meals and excessive liquids before going to bed. Avoid or limit naps. Naps can make it harder to fall asleep at night. It you must, nap less than 30 minutes. Check your medications and overthe-counter products. Ask your doctor or pharmacist if they may be contributing to your insomnia. Don’t put up with pain. If you are both-
ered by a chronic painful condition, make sure your pain reliever is effective enough to control your pain, while sleeping. And finally, exercise and stay active. Physical exercise enhances deep, refreshing sleep. You may want to give the above suggestions a try. It just might save your life. According to Web MD, numerous studies have shown an increased mortality risk for those reporting less than six or seven hours a night. One study found that reduced sleep time is a greater mortality risk than smoking, hypertension and heart disease. Check back next week to learn about the state-of-the-art sleep lab that has been set-up at Pikes Peak Regional Hospital.
very true. So reevaluating some things might not be a bad idea. 4. Give it all to God. Yes, whether He wants it or not, he’s getting all of my old luggage and dirty laundry. Here’s the whites, God! 5. Get more organized. No one, and I mean NO ONE, is more disorganized than me. Seriously. I have scraps of paper I’m saving for ... who knows? Time to clean up my act. 6. And speaking of cleaning up my act .... I also intend to keep my house clean consistently. If only because I like the smell of Pine Sol.
7. Put others first. By this I mean, forgetting my own comfort zone for the greater good. This is tough, that’s why it’s so far down on my list, but a leopard can’t change its spots overnight. Maybe that’s why I love leopard print so much ... There you have it. I think 2014 will be my year. I can’t wait!

greats like Aaron, Johnny Bench, Sandy Koufax, Nolan Ryan, Rickey Henderson and Walter Johnson. Still another for the superstars like Mantle, Mike Schmidt, Rogers Hornsby, Reggie Jackson and Joe DiMaggio. The fourth hall would consist of the very good players like Wade Boggs, Don Drysdale, Tony Gwynn, Harmon Killebrew and Brooks Robinson. The fifth hall would have Pete Rose and Shoeless Joe Jackson, while the sixth hall would have consist of all the PED guys. Clearly, the debate is not going to end anytime soon. So, on that note, we will pick up this discussion in January 2015 when the next election rolls around.

Mayor back on the job after crash By Pat Hill
phill@coloradocommunitymedia.com Three months after being seriously injured in a motorcycle crash, Woodland Park Mayor Dave Turley reflects on that moment and a life suddenly changed. “I’ve re-assessed some things, what’s important and what’s not,” he said. “Community is very important and even more so now, the baseball kids, the students.” In a stunning recovering, a combination of luck, emergency treatment, physician skill and the mayor’s fit condition, Turley is back to being the ever-present mayor. Turley’s last ride on the Honda Gold Wing was on a beautiful fall day in October. He’d ridden more than 200 miles before turning onto Tarryall Road. About a mile in, he came to a shallow turn and somehow lost control of the bike. “I still don’t truly know; originally I thought I’d hit some gravel, but now I think I probably lost some pressure in the tire,” he said. “I tried to keep the bike up but couldn’t make the turn.” In microseconds, Turley made a conscious decision to veer off the road and down an embankment. “I was doing fine until I hit some stuff, then the bike flips and throws me,” he said. “All the time I’m flying through the air at about 40 or 45 miles an hour, I’m concerned about the bike landing on me.” The bike kept going but Turley landed on his back on a rock, crushing five ribs. Lying in agony, with no phone service, Turley watched cars go by for about 25 to 30 minutes. “I actually thought I might die there,” he said. “I was upset with myself because I’d been intending to update my will and hadn’t.” Finally, a woman saw him, followed by two men, in a pickup. She went for cell phone service while the men stayed
Medical bills didn’t hurt Turley’s medical bills totaled $220,000 but his share was $709. “If I hadn’t had Kaiser, the hospital up here could take me for the emergency part but when they needed to keep me longer that would have been complicated,” he said. “They’d have to send me down sooner to Colorado Springs. That would have been tough for a lot of reasons.” As a matter of note, PPRH started accepting Kaiser Insurance in September. “It just shows you that injuries can cost you a lot of money if you didn’t have insurance,” Turley said. “I’d just guess that the surgery probably wouldn’t have happened. My injuries would have been in the category of ‘you’re gonna hurt a lot.’” Now that he’s back in the swing of things and pain-free, Turley offers additional kudos for the hospital in Woodland Park, which opened in 2007. “I’m really pleased how our local hospital can work with Penrose and with Kaiser,” he said. Turley’s medical bills were reduced as a result of the swing-bed program at PPRH where he spent the remaining four days of his treatment there. “It’s a form of rehabilitation that prepared me for the surgery,” he said. “Dr. (Kurt) Wever took over from Dr. Rick (Malyszek) during that time.” As a note of caution for others, Turley emphasizes the value of having the proper gear, motorcycle boots, pants and jacket with Kevlar (hard metal), gloves and a helmet. However, for him, it’s the new Jeep Wrangler and a farewell to the Gold Wing. “You take so many things for granted; you’re enjoying life, having a good time and in the blink of an eye, things change,” he said.
until the ambulance arrived from Lake George. “Having somebody there to comfort you is very important; hearing the ambulance siren is very important, because I was hurting so bad,” he said. A second ambulance, both from
Dave Turley credits his super-duper motorcycle gear, including the helmet, for reducing the effects of the motorcycle accident he suffered in October. Courtesy photo Ute Pass Regional Ambulance District, arrived and technicians prepared him for transport to Pikes Peak Regional Hospital. Reflecting on the traumatic experience, Turley credits the hospital for paving the way for his eventual recovery. Treated immediately in the emergency room, which included a CT scan, Turley has high praise for the staff and the physician on duty, Dr. Rick Malyszek. “The nursing staff was great; and, even though I was in great pain, they got me to physical therapy the next day,” Turley said. “They have to get you up because, in this case, with crushed ribs and a collapsed lung, they’re concerned about pneumonia and blood clots.” In many ways, Turley was lucky. His injuries were so severe that only a unique kind of surgery would be effective. But through a network provided by
Turley’s insurance carrier, Kaiser Permanente, Malyszek located the only qualified surgeon in Colorado Springs, Dr. David Hamilton, at Penrose Hospital. “We’re fortunate that this surgery had been developed, the metal plates, it almost looks like an erector set,” he said. “Actually, the doctor put me back together. I started getting better right away.” But Turley is sentimental about the initial week-long stay at PPRH. “It’s nice being in a local hospital where your friends can come and see you,” he said. “I had so much support from the community; the kids at Gateway and Columbine made get-well cards.” Turley’s visitors included members of the baseball teams. “That just means a lot, because kids don’t like to go to hospitals; some were there the first night,” he said.

phill@coloradocommunitymedia.com Whether snow, sleet, hail, rain or wind, Les Long reflects the delivery motto of the U.S. Postal Service. “I’ve never missed a day of work because of weather,” said Long, who is retiring after 23 years as a sales associate at the Woodland Park Post Office. The work ethic is impressive, particularly as Long lives in Security. “I love coming to work,” he said. It’s the small-town feel, the office culture, that has Long on the road five days a week, no matter what the weather. “It’s a whole different atmosphere in the post office up here than in the bigger cities,” he said. In Woodland Park, communicating with the customers, sharing sorrows and joys, is part of what separates large and small post offices. “When people found out my son was injured in Iraq, the outpouring was incredible, including offers of information about where he could get help,” Long said. “This is just a great community.” Long spices up the post-office experience, particularly during the holidays, with toys and singing stuffed animals that also dance. “Nobody likes to wait in line, OK?” he said. “So the toys are mainly just to break up the monotony, to add a little bit of cheer so the customer doesn’t mind as much.” When the long lines or a mistake in delivery makes people angry, Long has a remedy. “You’d be surprised, the grumpiest person who comes in, if you smile and treat them decent, you can turn that grump into somebody who sees that we care,” he said. For Long, serving in the U.S. Army doesn’t compare to working at the Woodland Park Post Office. “I spent 22 years bouncing all over the world, dealing with all kinds of people,” he said. “That time was fun and interesting, but the 23 years of being up here are very special.” Long’s last day is Jan. 31. He leaves behind his co-workers, his supervisor Kevin Higginbotham, Jerry Paul, Joyce Britton, Johanna Lockwood and Robert Schultz. “It has been one heck of a ride,” he said. “It’s hard to say goodbye.” Long’s departure will leave gaps in the post office. “He’s one of the best clerks I’ve ever had,” Higginbotham said.

ment to what the post office should be,” he said. “We’re going to take a big hit and are going to have to step up. Les is irreplaceable.”
EARN HIGHER RETURNS
So your eyes wander over here and you think to yourself, “I wonder what kind of scheme this is? I bet they say they can guarantee me 4% to 7%, or more, then sell me something else.”
But what if a U.S. Judge wrote an order demanding you be paid? Would that be enough of a guarantee? Wouldn’t you be just a little bit curious? Come on, give us a call, leave your wallet at home, and we’ll explain it all.

Literacy program seeks tutors By Pat Hill
phill@coloradocommunitymedia.com In a nation where one in four children grow up without learning to read, America is the only free-market country where the current generation is less welleducated than the previous. Statistics provided by the Children’s Literacy Center show that two-thirds of students who cannot read proficiently by the end of the fourth grade will end up in jail or on welfare. For children in Teller County, the literacy center offers a reading-intervention program twice a week at the Woodland Park library. Tailored to the students’ needs, the program’s one-on-one tutor-
ing is the key to its success, said the coordinator Bree Abel. “That’s where the magic is, where the spark happens. That’s where you see the student have the confidence to read and really enjoy it.” Mina Lasiter, a fourth-grade student at Columbine Elementary School, was lagging behind her classmates. On a waiting list for tutoring by the center, she was accepted last year. “She loved coming and this year we really saw the fruits of the tutoring,” said her mother Shellie Lasiter-Read. “She’s reading everything, signs, labels, books.” Today Mina reads for pleasure, asks to read to her mother rather than the other way around. “I like my tutor, Miss Linda; she took an interest in me and even helps
with my spelling words for school,” Lasiter said. There’s another aspect to the literacy program. “It’s free,” Lasiter-Read said. A nonprofit organization based in Colorado Springs, the literacy center depends on volunteer tutors. “They are just remarkable,” Abel said. “We are always looking, always in need of volunteer tutors, especially here in Woodland Park.” As literacy affects quality of life in a community, including the relationship between illiteracy and crime, Abel is dedicated to promoting a kind of grassroots mobilization. “We are really pushing to rally the community around literacy, to find those committed passionate people,” she said. “Several of our volunteers
have been with us since we opened the site in 2009.” The next training session for volunteer tutors is from 10:45 a.m. to 1:15 p.m. Feb. 1 at the Woodland Park library. For students, the literacy program begins Feb. 5, from 3:30 to 4:30 p.m. every Wednesday and Saturday. “It’s really difficult for teachers in school; they don’t get that opportunity,” Abel said. “That’s why we’re here, to fill in that gap to keep students from falling through the cracks.” For information about volunteering, call 471-8672 or visit childrensliteracycenter.org.

Colorado lawmakers get to work Party leaders talk about new efforts, old battles By Vic Vela
vvela@ coloradocommunitymedia.com The 2014 legislative session got underway Jan. 8, with speeches from party leaders that addressed a variety of key issues that lawmakers will be taking on over the next few months. Yes, there were calls by leaders in both chambers to work together on issues like jobs, the economy and education. But there was plenty of politics on opening day, with Democrats and Republicans exchanging jabs on contentious issues many of which were fought over last year that are sure to lead to headlines during this year’s session. Although leaders talked about issues that they will surely fight over during the next few months, it is clear that their early priorities will focus on working together on legislation that will deal with flood and wildfire disasters. The first series of bills that were introduced in the House came as a result of work by a bipartisan Flood Disaster Study Committee. Those bills include legislation that creates income tax credits for properties destroyed by natural disasters, and another that creates grant funding to repair water infrastructure that is impacted by natural disasters. “Despite all the recovery work that’s already happened, there’s much still to do,”
said House Speaker Mark Ferrandino, DDenver. “And we must see it through to completion.” House Minority Leader Brian DelGrosso echoed Ferrandino’s remarks on the importance of immediately dealing with natural disaster legislation. “Helping our friends and neighbors impacted by these tragedies will be a top priority of Republicans this session, and I am glad to hear that it will be for my colleagues across the aisle as well,” DelGrosso said. Education will also be a key area of focus this year. Senate President Morgan Carroll, D-Aurora, introduced the College Affordability Act, which places a 6 percent cap on tuition rate increases, and provides more money for financial aid. Carroll said the bill deals with skyrocketing tuition costs that often create enormous amounts of debt for students. “What we are talking about is squeezing out economic and life opportunities for an entire generation,” Carroll said. “This is an unsustainable trend that threatens to weaken our economy.” Ferrandino also talked about education, telling House members that students need more resources inside classrooms. He also took issue with the views on public education of Republicans, who often contend that schools need to be reformed, before more money is thrown at the education system.

Cripple Creek orders further study for vacation of alley By Sonja Oliver
Contributing writer In what appeared to be a routine administrative procedure at the Jan. 8 Cripple Creek City Council meeting, the second reading of an ordinance to vacate the city’s interest in an alley way prompted calls for further study. The city’s vacation of a portion of the alley located behind the Palace Hotel to applicant Century Casino, would divest the city of “right, title and interest” to a “portion of the alley located in Block 20, Fremont Addition, between lots 1-4 and 38-40, approximately 100 feet in length.” Century Casino requested the vacation because they have future plans to develop several lots which are presently separated by the alley way. The actual development has not yet been determined, however Century is looking at all options - including a possible hotel or casino expansion. In order to protect the city’s interests and yet encourage economic development, the city council approved Ordinance #2013-08 on Dec. 18 with Century Casino agreeing to five stipulations as follows: 1) Commencing construc-

tion on the project on or before Jan. 1, 2018; 2) Construction plans to be submitted to and approved by the city; 3) Pay all applicable permit fees; 4) Century Casino is responsible for relocation of all utilities in the alley; and 5) Dedication to public use Lot 5 and a portion of Lot 4 so that neighboring businesses can have access for deliveries, etc. There was no public comment made at the Dec. 18 meeting. However when neighbors Community of Caring / Aspen Mine Center and Triple Crown Casinos, who have interest in the use of the alley, learned about the first reading of the ordinance regarding the alley’s vacation in the Dec. 25 edition of the Pikes Peak Courier View, they weighed in with their concerns during the second reading of the ordinance at the Jan. 8 council meeting. During public comment Mary Bielz, Community of Caring founder, board chairman and executive director at the Aspen Mine Center, said she had concerns about the potential of being “land locked” with limited access for deliveries if the alley was to be vacated. “We would have to parachute into the parking lot,” Bielz said. Bielz said the non-profit’s food program is heavily utilized with food deliveries and pick-ups by over 200 local families. Bielz said she wanted to emphasize that “Eric Rose (General Manager of Century Casino) has been a great neighbor and we’ve always stood for economic development” but felt that “due process” was not served. She said the last they heard, the alley vacation proposal was tabled at an Aug. 21 council meeting with further traffic impact studies to be performed. “We actually read about (the passing of the ordinance on Dec. 18) in the newspaper (Pikes Peak Courier View, Dec. 25 edition) and were blindsided,” Bielz said. Triple Crown Casinos Director of Casino Operations Scott Porter represented the other property interest due to their recent closing of a purchase of Lots 9 and 10 (approximately two months ago, according to Porter), located on the other side of the Aspen Mine Center. Although the lots are presently vacant per se, Porter expressed concerns regarding the alley becoming “L-shaped” with a “dead end” and potentially making deliveries difficult at a possible storage/maintenance facility or other yet-to-be-determined use of the property. According to the city’s Public Works Director Jim Blasing, the original traffic study performed by engineering contractor Parsons Brinkenhoff, was done from a “strict, traffic engineering scope” with a “U-shape” cut out of the ally and the Century property to provide for access for neighboring businesses. Rose also said that Bielz was aware of the casino’s plans and had known that the casino was, in fact, going to accommodate the center by providing access as stipulated in one of the five conditions. However, Porter said that “No one asked Triple Crown if they were for a U-shaped design,” and that the L-shaped design left them with the potential problem of dealing with deliveries that would require backing up large trucks and other vehicles, which could impact safety. The original traffic flow study was done prior to the finalization of Triple Crown’s purchase of the two lots, although Porter said that Triple Crown had lease-options on those two properties for several years.

Porter also brought up the possibilities of traffic problems if deliveries had to be made off of Bennett Avenue because of the locations of the city’s fire and police departments situated across the street from the Aspen Mine Center. All parties, Century Casino, Aspen Mine Center, Triple Crown and the the city appeared to search for alternative options and find the best-working solution at the Jan. 8 meeting. Blasing was tasked by the council to gather more information and then engaging engineering studies to be performed by Parsons Brinkenhoff. The ordinance was tabled until the March 5 council meeting, allowing time for the studies to be completed. Blasing said on Jan. 10 that Public Works will be doing preliminary, foundational work from a traffic engineering perspective to examine traffic flow, look at delivery requirements for the businesses and make rough measurements for turns, etc. Also on Jan. 10, City Manager Ray White said the city is taking into account “all possible solutions to satisfy all interested parties,” through further traffic and engineering studies.
Other Cripple Creek city business
In other city business, the council approved an ordinance amending the city’s municipal code relating to the exemption of tax on food sales. According to Finance Director Paul Harris, this applies to the exemption of sales tax on certain food items “taken from the premises” from entities such as Venture Foods or the Coffee Barn for example. The council also passed a resolution for the city to designate public places for the posting of meeting notices as required by the Colorado Open Meetings Law. Meeting notices will be posted at the Cripple Creek City Hall, the Cripple Creek Post Office and the City of Cripple Creek web-site. As a responsibility of the City Clerk, the required notices must be posted no later than 24 hours prior to the holding of the meeting and all meeting notices shall include specific agenda information, where possible. According to City Clerk Debra Blevins, the Pikes Peak Courier View is the newspaper of record regarding the posting of public notices and legals. In a brief presentation to the council, Human Resources Director Carol Stotts provided council with a list of insurance plans and plan variations accepted by the Penrose - St. Francis Health Services urgent care clinic. The list was provided based on a citizen’s concerns as to which insurance companies were accepted by the clinic. According to the list, over 100 plans are accepted for various services through programs within Medicare, Medicaid, Indemnity, Health Maintenance Organizations, Point of Service Plans, Preferred Provider Organizations, U.S. Military, State of Colorado Programs, Workers Compensation Networks, Behavioral and Mental Heath Networks and Special Arrangements with other providers. The list can be obtained by going to the Centura.org and selecting Penrose. As a caveat, Stotts said that ultimately “it is the patient’s responsibility to know whether their insurance is accepted — or not.”

The average stay for women at the facility will be about 28 days but a few women might have to remain longer. Most of the women will be referred by an employer or employee assistance program and the recovery goal is to help these professional women keep their jobs and mend their relationships. There care is usually covered by health insurance. After a few questions and the public hearing where one neighbor spoke in support, the commissioners unanimously recommended approval of three motions. The first was the conditional use permit with the conditions recommended by the planning staff. The second motion approved the type of residents to be involved in the program and the third motion approved the program plan and the home care and maintenance plan for Courage to Change. Now, the case moves on to city council. Also recommended unanimously at the meeting was a minor subdivision in the Sturman Industries Innovation Park planned unit development. The subdivision will regularize the boundaries of three existing lots and clean up the map of rights of way and easements so that the lots can be sold or developed at a future date. Development would likely only mean that a
single residence would be added to the one lot among the three that doesn’t already have one. Sharon Roshek, broker associate at Coldwell Banker 1st Choice Realty, represented Carol Sturman at the commissioners’ meeting. Because the Woodland Park City Council’s Jan. 2 meeting was canceled, three commissioners, whose seats expired Jan. 1, were not reappointed in time to be able to attend the Jan. 9 planning commission meeting in an official capacity. Woodland Park Planning Director Sally Riley said their reappointment will be added to the Jan. 16 city council agenda and they should be back on the commission at the Jan. 23 meeting. She also reported that in the months of November and December the city’s new building department processed permits for properties with values totaling $20 million and Pikes Peak Regional Building inspectors performed 274 inspections in Woodland Park. Finally, Riley announced that Jon DeVaux, local business owner, planning commissioner and former city councilmember is the 2014 recipient of the Les Mellott Award for public service to his community. He will receive the award at the annual Teller County Cares Awards ceremony later this month. The Jan. 23 commission meeting will take up the first draft of an accessory dwelling unit ordinance.

Panthers hit the mats hard to start the year Woodland Park wrestlers getting primed for a special run By Danny Summers
Dsummers@ coloradocommunitymedia.com Woodland Park wrestling coach Keith Sieracki has high expectations for his team as it enters the meaty portion of its schedule. The Panthers had two dual meets and one tournament last week. When it was all over Sieracki was wearing a smile. “I was really impressed,” the coach said. “We’ve made a huge improvement from the first part of the season.” The Panthers began their week with a dominating 77-0 victory over Class 4A Metro League opponent Harrison on Jan. 8. Though the match was lopsided in terms of talent and skill level, Sieracki was pleased with the way his grapplers went about their game plan. “Over the (Christmas) break we worked on a lot of technique and mental toughness,” he said. “We’re trying to fine tune some things and I think the guys are making the adjustments.” The Panthers traveled to Coronado on Jan. 9 to face the traditional 5A state power. Woodland Park came out of the gate strong, building an 18-0 lead after three weight classes. Coronado wound up taking the match, 45-30. Among those who recorded pins for Woodland Park were Garrick Arias, Drew Hovanetz and Tommy Hancock. Coronado’s two-time state champion, Trent Watson, broke Coronado’s school record for the quickest pin in a match when he beat Harley Shreve in seven seconds in their 126-pound match. “He’s an awesome wrestler,” Sieracki

Smith is looking to advance to state for the first time. said of Watson. “I knew we were in trouble when we went up against him. “I was just so proud of our team. Whether they lost or they won everybody fought until they could fight no more.” On Jan. 11, Woodland Park competed in the 16-team Legend Classic. The Panthers lost their first two duals to Valley and North Platte, but rebounded to de-
feat Chatfield, 54-24, Ralston Valley, 6222, and ThunderRidge, 42-36 to finish in 9th place. Valley ended up winning the tournament. “It was an amazing tournament,” Sieracki said. “There were some great teams up there. “We were definitely the best team to
lose two dual meets.” Seniors Jonathon Hinton (160) and Josh Smith (170) recorded back-to-back pins for the Panthers against ThunderRidge. Hancock (120) also had a pin during the dual. Smith is ranked 14th in the state at 182, while teammate Jesse Weatherill is ranked 9th at 145.

Panthers’ basketball teams begin league play this week Scoreboard Both Woodland Park teams were 1-1 last week By Danny Summers
Dsummers@ colorado communitymedia.com The Woodland Park High School boys and girls basketball teams split a pair of games last week. The boys defeated Vanguard, 43-42, on Jan. 8. On Jan. 11, the Panthers lost to Calhan, 42-33. Both were non-league games. “We know we are young and we don’t have the leadership that we need, but if we continue to build on our program that would be a benefit for next year,” said Woodland Park coach Joel Herman. Dakota Herman, the coach’s son, had a solid game against Vanguard, scoring eight points and pulling down 16 rebounds (15 on the defensive end). Senior Keegan Harman led the Panthers with nine points, while fellow senior Josh Longoria added eight. Sophomore Dominik Cunico had seven points and five steals, while junior forward Sam Hopfe added three points and eight rebounds. “We had a 13 to 14 point lead and then our players became selfish,” Joel Herman said about the Vanguard game. “We executed our offense and then slacked off at the defensive end. The other team’s defensive intensity picked up and we just did not play a strong second part of the fourth quarter.” The Panthers started off strong against Calhan, lead-
ing 11-7 after one quarter. But Calhan stormed back, outscoring Woodland Park 17-6 in the second to take a 24-17 halftime lead. Woodland Park picked up the pace in the third quarter, outscoring the Bulldogs 14-13. But the Panthers had trouble finding the bottom of the net the final eight minutes, scoring just two points in the fourth. “Calhan is a very good (Class) 2A team,” Joel Herman said. Hopfe paced the Woodland Park offense with 12 points and nine rebounds, while Dakota Herman added seven points. Senior Randy Westfall and Harman added six points apiece. “If we keep practicing and get more comfortable with each other during the games we’ll have more success,” Hopfe said. Hopfe and Dakota Herman often practice their dunking during warm-ups and try to one-up each other. “I’m trying to make it happen in a game,” Hopfe said with a smile. “It will definitely boost the intensity up.” Woodland Park opens 4A Metro League action this week with games against Sierra and Widefield. “It’s a continuation of building upon what we’re doing,” Joel Herman said. “If we can compete and stay in games I’ll be extremely happy with that.” Dakota Herman views the start of league as a chance for the Panthers to refocus. “To be successful we have to not get walked all over with pace and height,” Dakota Herman said. “We have to battle. We have to be scrappy. We have to keep the tempo up with them
CRIPPLE CREEK-VICTOR HIGH SCHOOL Girls basketball Cripple Creek-Victor 38, Swallows Charter Academy 23 Cripple Creek-Victor scored nine points in the first quarter and 10 in the second for a 19-8 halftime lead against Swallows Charter Academy. Nine more points in the third and 10 in the fourth gave them a 38-23 victory over the Spartans.
WOODLAND PARK HIGH SCHOOL Boys basketball Woodland Park 43, Vanguard Charter 42 Woodland Park boys snuck by Vanguard Charter for the 43-42 win. Senior Keegan Harman was Player of the Game leading the team in scoring with nine points. Junior Dakota Herman followed with eight points and led the lead in rebounds with 16. Senior Josh Longoria also scored eight points.

Byers was averaging six points per game. “I want the best for Trey,” Joel Herman said. “He’s a phenomenal young man.” The Woodland Park girls lost to Vanguard, 41-29, on Jan. 8. The Panthers defeated Calhan, 28-24, on Jan. 11. Junior Jenny Sells paced the Panthers’ offense against Vanguard, scoring eight points. Senior Alexa Garrick and junior
Kelsey Arseneau added five points apiece. Juniors Lexie Comer and Darian SanFelice had four points each. It was a tale of two halves for the Panthers against Calhan. Woodland Park went into the locker room trailing 15-7, but they outscored the Bulldogs 9-1 in the third to pull even. Junior Abby Hills led Woodland Park with 10 points, while Comer added seven and junior Jeannette Worscheck had four. The Panthers open Metro League action this week with games against Sierra and Widefield.

CANCER (Jun 21 to Jul 22) You might need validation for a possible solution to a situation involving someone close to you. Consider asking a trusted friend or relative to help you with this problem. LEO (Jul 23 to Aug 22) Investigate carefully before agreeing to assist a friend or colleague with a personal problem. There might be hidden factors that could emerge later that will create problems for you. VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22) Your decision to work with an associate rather than go it alone, as you first proposed, brings an unexpected bonus. Be careful not to be judgmental. Allow for free and open discussion. LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) A loved one’s health problem could, once again, make demands on your time and attention. But this time, make some demands of your own, and insist that others pitch in and help. SCORPIO (Oct 23 to Nov 21) This is a good time for the traditionally staid Scorpion to plan adjustments in your day-to-day schedules. Be more flexible and allow for more impromptu, off-the-cuff actions. SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 to Dec 21) Avoid creating unnecessary fuss over a situation you don’t approve of. If it’s going to work, it will do so despite your objections. If it fails, it will do so without a push from you. CAPRICORN (Dec 22 to Jan 19) Working with a trusted colleague could open your mind to exploring some considerations you previously dismissed out of hand. The weekend brings news from a loved one. AQUARIUS (Jan 20 to Feb 18) Resolving a recent problem leaves you in a good position to strengthen your influence on how things get done. But continue to encourage ideas and suggestions from others. PISCES (Feb 19 to Mar 20) A new friend suggests an interesting opportunity. But check it out before you snap at it. It might be a good deal for some people, but it might not work in helping you reach your goals.

Baby Boomers May Avoid Knee Surgery With Modern Arthritis Treatments
Doctors say these two factors are the keys to knee arthritis treatment success and relieving pain without surgery By Matt Edgar America’s Health Writer
earlier we can treat knee arthritis - the better the results. The key to avoiding El Paso County - Everyone has knee replacement surgery is doing the said it at one time or another. If I had correct treatments as soon as possible.” only known about “this” sooner - things What is the “correct would be very different today. treatment?” That’s what many knee arthritis pain “That depends, there is no one answer sufferers are saying about this technolwhen it comes to medical conditions and ogy and treatment. knee arthritis is no different. That’s why, “We all know that countless lives if you have knee pain, you should have are being saved every year because of it evaluated by a doctor who deals with early detection and better treatment of and treats knee pain every day,” stated cancer,” one of the physicians at Osteo the clinics director of services. Relief Institute in Colorado Springs, CO. For many knee arthritis pain sufferers “The same holds true for treating knee the right treatment is viscosupplementaarthritis pain. I believe we are having tion. In this treatment, a preparation of so much success at Osteo Relief Institute Hyaluronic acid (such as Hyalgan) is because of two factors: One is we are injected directly into the knee joint. using advanced medical technology and Hyaluronic acid is a natural lubritreatments a lot of clinics do not use. cant and shock absorber of your joints And second, the word has spread to our and is found to be decreased in arthritis community and so many knee arthritis sufferers. This is similar to running your sufferers are coming in sooner. And the car low or without oil. Obviously, the
sooner you put oil back in the car - the less damage will be done. That’s why some doctors feel early viscosupplementation gets the best results and is so important for avoiding surgery. And the Doctors believe one of the most important factors for the success of viscosupplementation is making sure you are getting it into the joint space. That’s why the doctors at Osteo Relief Institute use advanced imaging technology called a “C-Arm.” A C-Arm allows the doctor to see into the joint and actually watch the injection go where it is supposed to. Research shows that performing injections without digital imaging can result in missing the joint space as much as 30% of the time. If you had viscosupplementation treatments without advanced imagining and did not get good results this may be why. “If you have knee arthritis pain,

viscosupplementation might be the answer you are looking for. The keys are to not wait, get a good evaluation from an expert and make sure advanced digital imaging (C-Arm) is used to make sure you have the best chance for success.” was the advice of the doctors at the Osteo Relief Institute.
Free Knee Pain Screenings Offered To Help Determine If Colorado Springs Area Residents Qualify For Popular Treatment El Paso County area knee pain sufferers have limited time to claim knee pain screening to see if all-natural knee arthritis treatment might work for them
If you qualify for this treatment, it might be one of the happiest days of your life. That’s because, this year, hundreds of knee pain sufferers have flocked to Osteo Relief Institute located in Colorado Springs, Colorado. That’s when their specially trained doctors added Hyalgan treatments to their already successful and comprehensive knee pain relief program. Hyalgan is unique because - even though it is manufactured by a pharmaceutical company, it is in NOT considered a drug because it is a natural substance with an incredible story. Why So Many Want It You see, when you suffer with arthritis - the lubricating fluid (synovial fluid) in your knee joint dries up. This means instead of gliding smoothly - your bones start to rub and grind against each other. This causes a little pain in the beginning - but over time the pain steadily gets worse until it is excruciating. Like “Joint Oil” Hyalgan works so well because it is like “joint oil.” It is a natural substance that contains one of the natural building blocks of the synovial fluid that lubricates your knee. Scientists and researchers discovered this natural building block to synovial fluid in the rooster’s comb - that big red thing on top of the roosters head. It is extracted from the roosters comb, purified and concentrated. When it is injected directly into your knee joint, it is like squirting oil on a rusty door hinge. Hyalgan allows your joints to glide more smoothly eliminating a lot of the rubbing, grinding and pain. Can Supplements Do The Same Thing? No. Glucosamine and chondroitin and other supplements are much different. You can only get this from a doctor and it often helps knee pain sufferers who got limited or no success from
Everyone Wants Proof: In the artist simulated drawings above, picture #1 is a normal, pain-free knee. There is no arthritis and the knee can move and bend freely without pain
glucosamine and chondroitin. Beware of unsubstantiated claims made by supplements that claim to do what this advanced medical procedure does. Why You Should Try This Even If You’ve Already Had Similar Treatments Without results... “We have been able to help so many knee pain sufferers - even many who have already tried other injections like Synvisc, Supartz, Orthovisc and even Hyalgan. We use special and very advanced low-dose video fluoroscopy imaging called “Hologic Digital Imaging” so we can see right into the joint. This allows us to put the Hyaglan exactly where is needs to be. Studies show doctors doing joint injections without fluoroscopy miss the joint up to 30% of the time.” said the head of Arthritis Treatment at Osteo Relief Institute. Osteo Relief Institute is a state of the art medical facility offering only the best technology. And that’s not all - Osteo Relief Institute has a complete knee relief program called “P.A.C.E.” to make sure you get the most pain relief and the best possible results from treatment. “Every case is individual. Some patients get quite a bit of relief right away - others take a little more time. But most have been extremely happy and the results usually last for at least 6 months. Patients who were suffering for years with bad knee pain are getting their lives back... going for walks again and exercising. It’s amazing to see. They tell all their friends - that’s why we are swarmed. I can’t tell you how many patients have cancelled their total knee replacement surgeries.” added one doctor. How To Get It If you have knee pain, Dr. M. Swanson M.D. and staff would like to invite you for a risk free screening to see if you are a candidate for Hyalgan treatments and the P.A.C.E program. All you have to do is call 719-323-6612 right now and when the
Advanced Medical Technology Can Make All The Difference: This advanced digital imaging called a C-arm allows doctors to see directly into the knee joint so treatments are precise and the Hyalgan actually goes where it is supposed to. Studies show that injections done without digital imaging can miss the joint up to 30% of the time. This is one reason Hyalgan or other Viscosupplementation may not have worked for you. Osteo Relief Institute uses this C-arm for every Hyalgan treatment. scheduling specialist answers the phone tell her you would like your risk free “Knee Pain Screening.” The specialists at Osteo Relief Institute can only accept a limited amount of new patients each month for this screening - so if you are interested please call now. Your risk free screening will only take about 25-30 minutes... you will get all your questions answered and leave knowing if you have possibly found the solution to your knee pain. And here’s something really important - Hyalgan treatments and the P.A.C.E program are covered by most insurance and Medicare. To schedule your screening today call 719-323-6612.
Pain - the red is a knee joint with painful osteo-arthritis. Arthritis causes the joint space to decrease, grinding, stiffness, decreased motion, bone spurs, swelling and a lot of pain.
Non-Surgical Spine Pain, Neuropathy, And Joint Arthritis Treatment
If You Can Answer Yes - You Are Eligible For A Knee Arthritis Screening With The Experts At Osteo Relief Institute Do you have pain and oteoarthritis (arthritis) of the knee? Have you tried other treatments such as NSAIDS and other anti-inflamatory medications without success? Have you already tried viscosupplementation (Hyalgan, Supartz, Synvisc) without satisfactory results?
If you answered yes to any of these questions - give Osteo Relief Institute a call and schedule your risk free knee pain screening 719-323-6612
Successful Treatment - Hyalgan (blue) being precisely injected directly into the knee joint using hologic digital imaging. Advaced imaging allows treatments to be as precise as possible. Hyalgan can lubricate the joint and decrease pain.
Failed Treatment - the injection (and Hyalgan) misses the joint space. Research shows this occurs up to 30% of the time without the use of hologic digital imaging to guide the injection. This is why Hyalgan may not have worked for you.
