Residential drug treatment facility draws fire Neighbors don’t want it in their back yards By Norma Engelberg Contributing writer
For Dr. Judith Miller, a large home on Trull Road in Woodland Park is the perfect site for a residence home-care facility to treat women addicted to prescription drugs. For most of the neighbors, however, opening that home to treat addicts, no matter how wellbehaved they might be, is a nightmare. On Feb. 6, Miller’s request to Woodland Park City Council for a conditional use permit to turn the fairly isolated, 4,458-square-foot home into “Courage to Change,” a treatment facility for “professional, career-oriented women” addicted to prescription drugs packed council chambers with neighbors worried about their property values and safety. City Planner Lisa Parnell went through the criteria city planners use to determine that a conditional use permit can be issued. She said Miller’s request complies with all criteria. To approve the permit, council would also have to approve the number of residents — no more than eight at a time-and the care program that would be used. Miller said her “neural recovery” program is state licensed and she would be the full-time resident on site as required by city code and there would be about six therapists working in rotation during the day. Residents would not have their own vehicles and, while they could leave the facility to hike local trails, eat at local restaurants and attend local meetings, they will always be escorted. All treatment would be in-patient care and there would be no signage.
“I have been looking for the perfect site in Woodland Park for five years,” she said. “This property is that perfect site.” During public hearing, a few people spoke in support of the permit. These included a former client of Miller’s facility in Colorado Springs, a therapist who would work with patients and Kathy and Rick Hobbs, the property’s current owners. Kathy Hobbs said it’s natural for people to be concerned about change. “We looked at this program and we believe it will help people,” she said. “This will just be a quiet home tucked away in the woods. If we sell it to someone else you don’t know what kind of neighbors you’ll get. If these women have the courage to change, we should have the courage to help them.” The rest of the speakers opposed the plan. The first to speak was Tom Buchmeier, whose property is 350 feet from the Hobbs’ property. He said his opposition isn’t about whether this is a good program or whether people need help: “It’s about dropping a drugtreatment facility into a residential area.” “There are no facts supporting the need for a drug-treatment facility in our own residential area or even in Woodland Park,” he said. “Just because the governor says there is a problem doesn’t mean we need this here.” Another speaker was Brad Harvey, who owns a townhome in nearby Elk Grove. “I don’t have a good feeling about having a drug rehab facility in my back yard,” he said. “If I had children, there’s no way I would have bought this property knowing that a drug-treatment facility would be located next door.” Mark Murphy, who is developing the Elk Grove property and manages the Elk Grove Homeowners Association, pointed out that 75 percent of the Hobbs’
This 4,558-square-foot home on Trull Road in Woodland Park is at the center of a storm over the owners’ plans to sell it to Dr. Judith Miller who wants to use it for a residential care home for professional women addicted to prescription drugs. Woodland Park City Council tabled the case to the Feb. 20 meeting to give the city attorney time to present a legal opinion. Photo by Norma Engelberg
neighbors oppose the project and that if it is approved he will think twice about constructing the site’s remaining 22 units. In rebuttal, Miller said 90 percent of residence care facilities in the United States are located in residential areas and that her facilities in Colorado Springs and Simla have never had any problems. “Your children are safe,” she said. “Most of these clients have children of their own that they want to get back to.” While several councilmembers said their job is to protect property values and honor the wishes of the neighbors, Bob Carlsen asked about the legalities involved.
“If we don’t approve this, are we discriminating against the disabled?” he asked. “Is there an issue with the use if they meet the criteria?” City Attorney Erin Smith said council should be informed about the legal issues, but that she was not prepared to speak to those issues at that time. “Colorado has passed legislation on this issue,” she said. “Communities can’t prohibit residential homes for the treatment of developmental or mental illnesses.” She said that state law says residential care facilities are “residential uses” and Mayor Pro Tem
Eric Smith said according to the city codes, such care facilities can only be located in residential zones. “I don’t think there is a place in Woodland Park that wouldn’t have the same issues,” he said. “You can say there could be a better place but is there? The council reluctantly decided to table the issue until the Feb. 20 meeting when Erin Smith can return with a legal opinion. “We’re not bringing monsters into your community,” Miller said. “I wish you could have answered yes tonight but I would rather table this so you can vote yes some other night.”
Raise the wage, says Shaw By Pat Hill

It’s Pastor Dave Shaw, Church in the Wildwood in Green Mountain Falls, who is taking his campaign to the highway Feb. 6. With so many minimum-wage workers receiving extra help from either the government, churches or other nonprofits, Shaw says it’s time to take a look at the11:15 minimum 2/3/14 AMwage. PagePhoto 1 by Pat Hill
Braving frigid temperatures last week, the Rev. Dave Shaw, pastor of Church in the Wildwood in Green Mountain Falls, is taking his campaign to raise the minimum wage to the streets of Woodland Park. “We’re talking about large corporations, not small businesses,” Shaw said, standing on the corner of U.S. 24 and Paradise Circle Feb. 6. “It’s not right that corporations subsidize their income by placing a tariff on the rest of society by not paying their employees a living wage,” Shaw said. Employees of many large corporations are forced to seek
health-care benefits from the federal government, as well as food stamps through the Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program, Shaw said. As a result, taxpayers, in essence, are contributing to the bottom line of corporations. “When Wal-Mart makes billions a year in profit but their employees seek assistance from the government or nonprofits like the one I work for, it’s great for lowering prices but it creates a need,” Shaw said. Wal-Mart’s low prices are not the true cost of goods for the consumer, Shaw said. “I sincerely hope that particularly large corporations do right by their employees,” he said. “If they won’t do it, government needs to tell them to!”

WP Council to refer measure to April 8 election Meets the Moose, supports arts district, Main Street program By Norma Engelberg Contributing writer
Moose don’t show up at Woodland Park City Council meetings everyday but Feb. 6 council meeting was an exception. Mike Perini of Perini & Associates introduced the Moose who is at the center of the threeweek February Moose is Loose campaign designed to bring shoppers to local shops. After a photo op with the moose, Mayor Dave Turley asked Perini for an update on the USA Pro Challenge cycling race coming up on Aug. 22. Perini said the Pro Challenge is the second most popular cycling race in the world after the Tour de France and that representatives from 117 countries will be giving Woodland Park live coverage as this year’s Pro Challenge stage 5 starting location. On April 2, 2002, Woodland Park voters approved a 5.7 percent lodging tax to be used for city beautification and streetscape improvements. At the April 8 election, the city is planning to ask voters to allow the city to use lodging tax revenue for economic enhancements and sustainability programs that could include advertisement, marketing and promoting the city. The council will give its final decision on this ballot measure at its Feb. 20 meeting. Turley said this measure is not a new tax and that unless city residents stay in local motels and inns they won’t be paying the tax. The council approved resolutions supporting the formation of a Woodland Park Creative Arts District and the creation of a Woodland Park Main Street program. Both of these projects were first promoted to the city by Councilmember Gary Brovetto. Supporting these two programs could mean the city would fund part of the startup costs, including application fees. At City Attorney Erin Smith’s recom-

Late last year Teller County filed suit in district court to stop the annexation that would allow the property to become the new site for Jay Baker’s Teller County Waste offices, maintenance shop and recycling facility. The council approved the addition of the former Amerigas property, owned by Kip Unruh and Arden Weatherford, to the Woodland Station overlay district. Brian Fleer, Woodland Park economic development and Downtown Development Authority director, said construction on this property and Woodland Station lot 2
should begin this year. The council also approved funding for an early payoff of the city’s 1995 street debt and street capital general obligation bonds. Fleer gave an economic development update that included a fairly long list of projects: Woodland Hardware owners hope to be out of their Gold Hill location by Feb. 28 and into their Woodland Station facility on March 1 for a “soft opening.� Cobblestone Hotels’ representatives are coming to Woodland Park to talk about lodging.

can do.” Mayor Pro Tem Eric Smith said that if the aquatic center is built on that site but the school district continues to own the land he wouldn’t be in support. “It takes something like an Act of Congress to get permission to use school facilities that our tax dollars pay for,” he said. “There would be too many control issues; I am not in favor of this location.” “There would be a lot of things to work out but I really like this location,” Mayor David Turley said. “It would be near the schools and that would benefit our youth.” Councilmember Gary Brovetto said he would rather see the aquatic center built closer to Woodland Station. Buttery said there were a few locations near the center of town that might work but Turley pointed out that building the aquatic center downtown would turn tax-paying commercial property into non-tax-paying public property. Several other councilmembers supported talks with the school district. Buttery pointed out that he has fall-back properties to look at if negotiations with the dis-
By Norma Engelberg Contributing writer At a short work session before the Feb. 6 regular Woodland Park City Council meeting, City Manager David Buttery asked for guidance on a Woodland Aquatic Project question. During the last few months, the aquatic project board has focused on building the center at Memorial Park but stiff opposition has decisively removed that idea from the table. Of 10 other possible sites, five were eliminated and the other five were prioritized with a vacant piece of land near the Woodland Park High School taking top priority. “We’re looking at the space between the bus turnaround behind Gateway Elementary and the high school parking lot,” Buttery told council. “There are a lot of questions but if you say ‘yes continue the discussions’ we’ll try to work out what we

His investigations could result in a funding question being placed on the 2014 General Election ballot in November. “(To work out costs) we have to have concept designs and to do that we have

to have a site,” said Councilmember Bob Carlsen, who is also a member of the Woodland Aquatic Project board. “If this is where it (the aquatic center) ends up, I will not support a ballot issue,” Smith said. Turley pointed out that Smith was only one voice in seven.
The bomb threat and subsequent vacation of the Teller County courthouse Feb. 3 turned out to be a hoax, said Sheriff Mike Ensminger. “We think we know who was responsible,” Ensminger said the next day. The crime is a felony, Ensminger added. Teller County Courthouse was evacuated Monday, Feb. 3, because an email sent to county officials claimed multiple bombs were placed in the historic building. At 10 a.m., a two-block area around the
110-year-old courthouse had been evacuated. The threat was received by email at 6 a.m. on Monday. The Teller County Sheriff’s Office said the email claimed that there were multiple bombs planted inside the courthouse. The Colorado Springs Police Department’s bomb squad helped Teller County Sheriff’s Office search the building. The building was to remain closed for the rest of the day while the incident was investigated, according to officials.

Reenlistment ceremony held at mine Staff report When U.S. Army Sgt. Orlando Santiago asked for his reenlistment ceremony to be held at the Cripple Creek & Victor Gold Mining Co., the answer was a resounding yes. Held at the mine on Jan. 30, the ceremony was a royal send-off for Santiago who will serve his country for another three years as part of the 615th Engineer Company, 2nd Platoon Heavy Construction Equipment Operators stationed at Ft. Carson. Several weeks ago, while off duty, Santiago and his comrades were touring the Pikes Peak Region and turned onto Teller County Road 82. When they saw CC&V’s operations in the North Cresson they were taken by surprised and very impressed at the size of the equipment, scope of the
work and the bustling activity. Since Santiago had already made the decision to reenlist, and because there is competition among platoons to hold their ceremonies in unique settings, he immediately began considering the possibility of holding his ceremony at the mine. Because CC&V’s equipment is larger, and even more impressive than that which they normally operate, the mine’s support in making arrangements for his ceremony to take place on a 793 Caterpillar Haul Truck made Santiago’s renewed commitment to his country memorable. Given that the sergeant and his platoon have been deployed to Afghanistan, and then helped the Colorado Springs’ area recover from flooding in the summer of 2013, they have had meaningful experiences. They assured CC&V that this is one that they will include in that list.

It will turn up, if I press the issue It is a mystery that probably will eventually will be solved. But like such mysteries, it might take some time, and pulling some threads, and listening to a yarn or two. I am talking about figuring out where several tons of printing iron went. The old flatbed press I knew in my inkstained childhood. Namely, six thousand pounds of magic, that I first caught copies off of the Dolores Star on Thursday afternoons back in the late 1960s, and folded for a half cent each. I grew up next to the Pleasants that owned the Star and their son, Andy, was a few months younger than me. Pleasants gave me an opportunity to learn elements of a disappearing craft at the last of of the hot type era. Printing is sort of like voting for me. Do it early and often, if you can. Larry Pleasant and Filbert ‘Shorty’ Lobato were the masters of the craft. “Larry and Shorty continued with hot metal and the old press for a few months while I made the switch to offset. The press was
still there when I left in ‘80,”according to Lewis McCool, who purchased the Dolores Star from the Pleasants. Larry and Shorty continued on with a job shop in Dolores, running various smaller offset presses. The topic came up the other day when Ellis Miller, who folded a paper or two in his own day, mentioned I might know something about the old press from Dolores. “I remember it from when my Uncle Tom Johnson was editor of the Star, but that was a long time ago,” Miller said. “Shirley Dennison might also have some idea.” Indeed she might.
I sent Shirley a message, and she was unsure of what might have happened to the old press, but had acquired a wealth of stories about when it was running, including one where the job required so much time and attention, that it was actually possible (but dangerous) to fall asleep while operating the beast. She suggested I try Larry’s son Tim, or possibly Dean Coombs in Saguache. “I have a picture of it loaded on a flatbed trailer, but don’t know where it was taken. Sorry, by that time, I was in the Marine Corps, and wasn’t around to see and know,” Tim tells me. On to Dean Coombs, who I know from my time at the press association. Dean is running the last hot-type newspaper operation in the country, and probably the world. Saguache Crescent ... Last of a kind, a hold out in techno-adapted planet... so strange a being, that news organizations all over the world report on how he reports on the little burg of 500 in the San Luis Valley. “Yea, I’m supposed to be on CBS Sunday
Morning sometime this month,” he said. Along with with being featured by the LA Times and Al Jezeera, he adds. “I bought some of Larry’s stuff but I don’t have that press,” Coombs says. “I have parts of one that he had in the shed there. It was kind of sinking down into the dirt. But it was a smaller one, like what I am printing on now. The parts are interchangeable. I got an old Ludlow (typograph device that casts bars, or slugs of type) from him. Seems like if I bought anything, Larry would always throw something else on the truck when we were getting loaded up. He was generous that way.” Coombs wasn’t sure either where the larger press went. “Seems like it went to museum or something down in New Mexico,” he said. “Though with so few of us running, I probably should have kept track.” “It will turn up,” I told him confidently. It will turn up.
wrote in his column last week, figure skater Dorothy Hamill won Gold and captured the hearts of men and women everywhere. Austrian favorite Franz Klammer won the men’s downhill in alpine skiing. To nobody’s surprise, the Soviet Union won its fourth consecutive hockey title. Segue to the 1980 Games in Lake Placid, New York. Just about anyone in America over the age of 45 today remembers those Games. The highlight of the Lake Placid Games, of course, was the United States winning the Gold medal in hockey. Known the world over as “Miracle on Ice,” the United States was not expected
to advance out of Group play, much less stand up to the greatest teams in the world. Sports Illustrated selected the team’s victory over the Soviet Union as the No. 1 sports moment of the 20th century. It was a magical ride that happened amidst the backdrop of the Iranian hostage crisis, the Cold War and the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. Those events made the now fabled “Miracle on Ice” even more impactful on American history. A few years ago I had the opportunity to interview Mark Johnson, a forward on that United States team and now the head women’s hockey coach at the University of Wisconsin. Johnson was a star player for the University of Wisconsin in the 1970s (he still holds the school record for career goals with 125) and had already represented the United States in International tournaments in 1978 and 1979. His father, “Badger” Bob Johnson coached Team USA at the 1976 Olympics in Innsbruck, where it finished fourth. The Soviet Union was the premier
team in the world - amateur or pro. The Soviets entered the Lake Placid games as the heavy favorite. In the four Olympics following their 1960 upset by Team USA at Squaw Valley, Calif., Soviet teams had gone 27-1-1 and outscored the opposition 17544. In head-to-head match-ups against the United States, the cumulative score over that period was 28-7. The coach of the 1980 USA squad was Herb Books. Nine of the 20 players on the final United States squad were players who skated for Brooks at the University of Minnesota. Entering the 1980 Games, Team USA was a decided underdog. It was confirmed by a 10-3 defeat at the hands of the Soviets in the final exhibition game in New York City’s Madison Square Garden just prior to the Games. The United States’ run to Olympic Gold included a 4-0-1 record in the Group play, setting up the medal round game with the Soviets. Amazingly, ABC showed the game
The ‘Miracle on Ice’ never gets old The Winter Olympics are in full swing in Sochi, Russia, so that means that tens of millions, maybe billions, of folks around the world are dialed in watching the happenings. I have never been much of a Winter Olympics fan. The Summer Games are the ones I relate to more. Not that I will ever compete for the title of World’s Fastest Man or challenge any of Mark Spitz’s times in the pool, but I just prefer fun in the sun to slipping on ice. My Winter Olympic memories date back to the 1968 Games in Grenoble, France, when I was a lad of just four. For whatever reason, I remember French skier Jean-Claude Killy winning Gold in the downhill, giant slalom and slalom. The only recollection I have of the 1972 Games in Sapporo, Japan, is ski jumping. Watching those daredevils ski down the giant snow slide and then flying through the air quickly made that event my favorite Winter Olympic sport to this day. Next up was Innsbruck, Austria, in 1976. By 1976 the Games had become big business. As my editor, Rob Carrigan,

Attractions in our back yard I talked about our visitors, but what did they come here to see? I recently did a talk for a group about our old tourist attractions. I was surprised at what I heard. I thought I would share some of that with you today. Can you name 12 local attractions that the tourists might have seen a 100 years ago? Since many are geographical, they come easily, but even those have in some cases changed. Starting off, the most obvious is Pikes Peak. Then, you spent a day getting to the top and back, even if you took the fastest way, the train. Even then most walked up. Getting to the top of Cheyenne Mountain was done only by walking into the 1920s. People came to enjoy the mountains, since most did not have them to enjoy where they normally lived. Train rides into the mountains, carriage rides, picnics, long walks and climbs were general fare for the tourists. Of the usual attractions that we think of, many were not here before World War II. The man-made attractions generally came along later, but some of those you may find have interesting history. If you read this column very often you may think of some of those. The Cave of the Winds, Garden of the Gods, Seven Falls and the Manitou Cliff Dwellings are natural, but influenced by their tourist interests. To the visitor, for example, Garden of the Gods was once owned by several individuals. The park
itself was several attractions combined into the park. I have discussed in the past Balanced Rock’s interesting history. The Cave of the Winds is actually several caves joined because of the visiting public. Seven Falls is surrounded by features added to assist the visitors. The Cliff Dwellings were moved here about a 100 years ago from Mesa Verde before the park was developed there. The Cheyenne Mountain Zoo and Will Rodgers Shrine are attractions that have been linked almost to their start. The road up Cheyenne Mountain and the old lodge on the summit are either gone or in bad repair, thanks to our interesting weather. I have done those stories here before. Helen Hunt Falls and the road in North Cheyenne Canyon are barely 100 years old. As we saw with the summer’s storms, that is not an easy place to have a road. We have newer attractions like the North Pole and the Air Force Academy and several interesting museums. If you are interested in coins, mining, bugs, rodeo, old ghost towns and sports, there are museums for you. The visitor can spend days looking into these attractions.

The thrill is gone, Lucille. Well, you’re into the sixth week of you new commitment or re-discovered dedication to making 2014 the year you’re going to exercise. This is about the time that Newbies struggle with the cliché from that old B.B. King song … “The Thrill is Gone.” Now the challenge becomes how to maintain the frequency and duration of regular exercise, when there are so many other demands on your time and your workout buddies are starting to drop out. How do you keep showing up at the gym and lacing up those walking or running shoes, when it’s snowy and bitter cold outside. One approach is to complete your workouts very early in the morning before your brain figures out what you’re doing. Another is to implement the following tips on exercise motivation gleaned from several website and the expertise of yours truly. Don’t put away your exercise gear. Lay out your workout clothes the night before
so they are in plain view, when you get up in the morning. Visual cues are a wake-up call to your brain. Invest in more workout clothes. Having the right clothing reinforces your identity as an exerciser, plus you’ve got to wear that really cool outfit somewhere. Choose exercise classes or workouts you enjoy and can do well. If you find yourself constantly frustrated with your workouts, it’s time to rethink your exercise strategy. Thirty minutes on a treadmill can be torture if you’d rather be taking a spin-
ning class. Log your workouts online. Social networking sites like Facebook and DailyMile (http://www.dailymile.com/) offer an extra layer of social support that can hold you accountable and help you keep going. Set realistic goals.Have clear objectives for your exercise program and set attainable short-term and long-term goals. Involve your causes. Go online to http://www.stickk.com/, which is a website where you can set goals and give a donation to a charity you like if you meet your goal or one you hate if you fall short. Vary your fitness activity. Cross training is the key to a balanced body and minimizing injuries. In your aerobic program, jog, hike, spin, swim, ski, row, snowshoe, walk, bike, take an aerobics class or use the elliptical. Change your weight lifting program regularly. Reward yourself. There’s no better way to sustain your dedication to getting fit than immediate gratification. Treat your-
self to a small prize when you reach each goal. Skip a day.Exercise obsession is as bad as no exercise at all. Listen to your body and when it tells you to take a day off, do so. Don’t over-exercise. Keep in mind that regular exercise is an adult thing to do. Results take time and some of the perks are not immediately obvious but there’s no end to the quality of life and longevity benefits attributed to regular exercise. And finally, when you just don’t want to get out of bed and go to the gym, recall the words of comedian Woody Allen, “80 percent of success is showing up.” Cord Prettyman is a certified Master Personal Trainer and owner of Absolute Workout Fitness and Post-Re-hab Studio in Woodland Park.He can be reached at 6877437, by email at cordprettyman@msn.com or though his website at www.cordprettyman.com.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Dear Editor: I don’t think I can express everything I’d like to say in one letter so I may be sending you subsequent thoughts in the future. First and foremost, I heartily apologize to the citizens of Green Mountain Falls for having endorsed Lorrie Worthey for mayor in 2012. If I’d had any idea of her gross incompetence, I would never have mentioned her name. It didn’t take long after the election to discover that Worthey is for all intents and purposes really “unworthy” of being mayor. Even before the Waldo Canyon fire was contained she was on the phone declaring that she had “found the money to pay for all of the overtime” and all we’d need to do was submit the hours accrued. Frankly, she made it sound pretty simple. She failed to tell anyone (and maybe she really didn’t know) that the money was actually a loan from El Paso County that would have to be paid back. Had she been more interested in the workings of town business, she would have known that like a lot municipalities, GMF has a contingency fund that is set up specifically for these types of events. After being made aware of this fact she seemed to dismiss it as insignificant. Regardless, after a litany of events too lengthy to enumerate, we discovered that FEMA would reimburse us the overtime money to repay the county by filling out particular documents, signing and submitting them. By now things were getting pretty contentious on the board, including the mayor withholding information from staff by invoking the phrase “need to know.” After staff and Mayor Pro Tem Jane Newberry filled out the necessary paper work for FEMA, the mayor refused to sign the document accusing a staff member of padding their overtime claim and went as far as to cause the district attorney to get involved (I believe she attempted to shift the pressure to someone else for personal reasons.) Even after the issue was resolved “in house” she refused to sign the FEMA request, causing us to authorize Newberry to sign for the town. I believe the mayor acted in her own interest and not the town’s. When the relationship between the mayor and the majority of the board deteriorated further after the Waldo Canyon incident, she started her campaign of innuendo, partial facts and outright accusations of anyone who disagreed with her by using Facebook to “character assassinate” them. After the board instituted a policy concerning social media, which simply instructed staff and board members to be specific, factual and truthful, she complained of censorship. It seems that if you disagree with Worthey, you are persecuting her. As you can see my opinion of Lorrie Worthey as mayor of Green Mountain Falls is pretty low. I think it’s justified. This is unpleasant, but I feel that it needs to be said. Sincerely, Mac Pitrone Dear Editor: There are two concerns I have about our immigration system. One is the fate of young people brought here illegally, at
a young age and grew up in this country. They are as Americanized as any other young person, except they lack legal status. I am in favor of the “Dream Act” or the version passed by the U.S. Senate that would grant legal status to these young people after service in the United States Armed Forces or completion of a college program. The second is the breaking up of families where one or more of the parents are undocumented and the children are citizens. These actions do nothing but create poverty for the parents and put the children at risk of a life of impoverishment or crime to survive. Some point to the fact that undocumented aliens are law breakers, and that is true. But who of us haven’t broken the law at some point even if it is as frivolous as a parking ticket. I am reminded of Jesus and the stoning of the adulterous women where none were without sin and could throw the first stone. Surely compassion should triumph over legalism in these immigration cases. These folks are only here to give their children a chance at a better life. Why else would people leave the place where they grew up, their extended family and friends? My great-great-great grandparents did the same in 1820. After 6 years of building a farmstead the patriarch of the family made a declaration of intent to become a citizen on July 4, 1826, our nation’s 50th birthday. Two years later he was naturalized. His naturalization made his wife and children citizens also. Can’t we show compassion towards those who are trying to do the same things our forbearers did? Sam Gould, Divide, Colorado Dear Editor: Bravo to Buck Dugger for his very respectful letter published in your Feb. 5 edition. I absolutely agree that rather than “wasting time trying to legalize the criminal invasion of this country, Congress and the executive branch should reform the unemployment and welfare systems to stem the hemorrhaging of US taxpayers dollars for failed bribes.” You are a wise man Mr. Dugger with exceptional perspective. You spoke for many of us. Thank you for writing and thanks to the Pikes Peak Courier for publishing your letter. Sincerely, Nancy Russell, Woodland Park Dear Editor: On Feb. 6 the city council had a public hearing on the conditional use permit requested by Dr. Judith Miller. It is very disappointing to discover this city’s leadership seems to be controlled by fear rather than facts. After the presentations and public comments the City Council deliberated the issue. The conversation for the most part was all about the fear of property values. During the discussions Council Members agreed there was absolutely no way for them to determine what effect, if any, granting this permit would have on property values. Even though there were absolutely no facts to validate
their fears one way or the other, it consumed most of their focus and it appeared they could not get over the fear of the unknown. During the deliberations Councilmember Carrol Harvey stated that the townhome developer has already decided to not finish building the remaining 22 units because of the concern over property values. This is completely not true. The actual facts are the townhome developer has been trying to sell his remaining property for several years. On Feb. 7, 2014, I contacted his listing agent that he has used over the years. I was told the property was not currently on the market but the owner would be more than happy to hear an offer and that his property is planned to go back on the market this Spring. So where exactly was he going to build these 22 units if he has been trying to sell the property for years? The townhome developer already was planning to re-list
his property this Spring so the granting of this permit had absolutely no bearing on his decision. It appears that Council was using information that was “convenient” rather than truthful to support the unjustified position of fear. Finally one of the Council Members brought up the fact that due to existing city regulations this Home Care Residence in question could not be in a commercial area at all but had to be located in a residential area, and Council Members agreed. So the dilemma is the Council knows this facility has to be located in a residential area but the Council could not get over the fear of assuming it would have a negative effect on property values even though they have absolutely no facts to support that fear.

In competition shooting, perfection is the goal with Olivia Francisco’s perfect score as displayed on this target sheet.

4-H shooting club aims to help youth By Sonja Oliver
Contributing writer “We challenge them all the time,” 4-H shooting coach Robert Tyler says of the young members enrolled in the Teller/ Park County 4-H Shooting Sports Club. Tyler has been working with 4-H youth from Teller and Park counties as a shooting coach for the past eight years. “My kids are pretty good shots,” Tyler said of his students. In fact, he said the U.S. Army has the club to thank for one of its marksmanship instructors who is now stationed in Alaska. One of Tyler’s goals is to see one of his young charges from the Teller/Park County 4-H Club make it to the Olympics. To achieve this Olympic-sized goal, he is coaching 16 shooters from beginning through advanced levels and invites and encourages other children from throughout the area to join. Tyler cites the benefits of children¹s participation to include an improvement of school work, focus, selfesteem and establishment and the realization of personal goals. “Plus, they learn how to be a better shot,” Tyler said. About the 4-H Shooting Sports Club The club’s stated objectives include the teaching of shooting sports, firearms safety and the proper use of firearms. According to its literature, along with the development of a precision shooting team, the club endeavors to “impart a sense of responsibility to self and others. “(The club) strives to present youth with opportunities to engage in activities that demonstrate the benefits of focusing on a task and the importance of completing that task. In teaching these skills we hope to impact their lives beyond the club.” When shooting in a competition environment, there is much more to the sport of shooting than sighting in a target, taking control of a breath and the squeezing of a trigger or the drawing of a bow. Under the tutelage of Tyler, the club seeks to create not only an appreciation for the sport of shooting but the positive traits of focus, self discipline, healthy competition, task completion and building positive self image and self esteem. Lake George Charter School parent Reba Sonnier-Fertitta, whose 8-year-old
4-H shooting club members spend at least three hours weekly honing their skills while at weekly shooting practice with the Teller/Park County 4H Shooting Sports Club. Members Damien Sonnier (l) and Olivia Francisco (center right) receive instruction on competition shooting practices from parent volunteer Antonio Francisco (center left) and instructor Robert Tyler (right). grandchild Damien is enrolled in the program agrees with the club’s positive impact on children. She said the benefits resulting from Damien’s involvement are worth the time and effort he has devoted in his first year as a 4-H club member. “It has given Damien a lot of confidence. He already shoots fairly well (since beginning the program),” said SonnierFertitta, who also noted that Damien has “improved in school and completes his homework for the week early so that he can practice and participate as often as possible.” Disciplines that the club offers include archery, rifle, shotgun, pistol, precision air rifles and precision .22 caliber rifle. But, before anything else, strict safety practices are taught in all disciplines. In competition shooting, students learn how to shoot from a prone, kneeling and standing position with a goal-based program that requires them to keep a “shooting diary,” which includes “thoughts for the day” with aphorisms such as “Champions are always looking for ways to improve, even when they win or set new re-
cords.” When shooting, students must identify their targets precisely, “calling the shot” and knowing exactly where that shot landed. “If they don¹t know where their shot is, they don¹t improve much,” says Tyler. 4-H member and shooting participant Olivia Francisco, a ninth-grade student at Woodland Park High School, acknowledges that the program has helped her with school work and other activities requiring self-discipline. “If you learn to focus on something now, it helps with so many things later in life,” Francisco said.
A lifetime of shooting
Tyler brings to the club a vast base of knowledge and experience. A retired civil engineer, he started shooting at the age of 11 while in the Boy Scouts, staying with the organization to become an Eagle Scout. In addition to his participation with the Boy scouts, he joined a competition team while attending high school in Montrose, Colo. “When I was in high school, we were
the toughest team to beat in all of Colorado,” Tyler said in keeping with his naturally competitive spirit. Following high school, Tyler joined the U.S. Navy and served as an air crewman for jets on an aircraft carrier during the war in Vietnam from 1967 through 1970. He had the opportunity to further hone his shooting skills as a Navy shooting team member while stationed in Japan, becoming the team¹s top shooter. Tyler has held several national and Colorado state records for both pistol and rifle. With all of his experience, Tyler, a Florissant resident, serves with the Colorado Civilian Marksmanship Program as the state junior director. For the past three years he has coached the Junior Shooting Club at the Olympic Training Center and serves as the Shooting Range Officer for the Wounded Warriors Games. He also travels to area Navy ROTC units as an advanced shooting coach. In addition to sharing his skills with various organizations, Tyler is a Level 3 National Rifle Association shooting coach for rifle, pistol and shotgun disciplines and a certified instructor for NRA safety courses, teaching home protection firearms and concealed hand gun courses.
Participation in the 4-H Shooting Sports Club
Area youth can learn about competition shooting sports as members of the 4-H Shooting Sports Club. The cost is $40 per year, which includes members’ use of the specialized clothing, shooting mats, spotting scopes, rifle stands, precision rifles and pellets and .22 ammunition at no additional cost. The program encourages parents to participate with their children. The club meets every Sunday and Monday for shooting practice from 4 to 7 p.m. at the Pikes Peak Community Center in Divide, directly across from Venture Foods located on the south side of U.S. 24. Monthly meetings are held on the first Sunday of the month at the same location, followed by shooting practice. Enrollment is open until March 31 for children ages 8 to 18 (children must be 8 years of age by Dec. 31 of the previous year.) In addition, 4-H offers a “Clover Leaf” program which allows children from the ages of 5 through 7 to participate in age-appropriate activities. For more information, call 719-748-1335.

In yet another contentious meeting in Green Mountain Falls last week, the Concerned Citizens challenged every potential decision by the board. Exasperated, at times enraged, by the range of complaints, such as objections to the board’s updating the personnel policy, the meeting was another sign of political dysfunction. However, in other news, the Concerned Citizens have scored a victory with a successful referendum asking voters to rescind the ordinance establishing the position of town manager. The referendum is a direct response from a number of citizens who have expressed anger and dismay over the board’s approving the ordinance. They were doubly angry at the appointment of Rob McArthur as the town manager, over the objection of Mayor Lorrie Worthey. Dick Lackmond and Judy Lofland-Wiedner led the Concerned Citizens’ referendum campaign. While the citizens collected a sufficient number of signatures for the referendum to be placed on the ballot, their timing was off. According to trustee Mac Pitrone, the petition was too late for the municipal election April 1. “The petition should have been submitted, and the signatures validated, by Jan. 31, because Feb. 1 and 2 are not business days,” Pitrone said. As a result, the election must be held separately, for additional expense, after April 1 and before July 4. For the municipal election, candidates have until Feb. 11 to submit their petitions. To date, Worthey has declared her intention to run for a second term. As the tone was set within minutes of opening, trustee Margaret Peterson requested an executive session after the meeting to seek legal advice from the town attorney Matthew Krob. After the session, the board voted to appoint McArthur as the interim town manager, performing the duties written in the ordinance. McArthur’s appointment was approved by a 4-1 vote, with trustees Jane Newberry, Peterson, Pitrone and Ralph LoCascio voting in the affirmative and Worthey voting no. Trustees Tyler Stevens and Howard Price, who is ill, were absent.
Peterson pleads for peace
In a town divided by conflicts, trustee Margaret Peterson read from a prepared statement near the end of the meeting. Among her let’s-get-this-straights were: • Initiating a town manager does not change the form of government; • There is no extra pay for employees who do several jobs, including snow plowing by McArthur and his assistants. All salaries are separated into budget items. “Please get the facts straight — it will help to promote and make this community strong. We don’t need to be divided over false information, innuendos, gossip and lies. Let’s all do what’s right and help heal the divisiveness that’s happening and make this community strong and unified again,” Peterson said.

Former mayor Bratton gets a report By Pat Hill phill@coloradocommunitymedia.com According to a report from Green Mountain Falls’ trustee Howard Price, the town is the beneficiary of 100 hours a week of law and code enforcement as well as neighborhood-watch patrols. The patrols are by Peace Officer Standards and Training-certified officers, as well as non-POST-certified, including those conducted by Rob McArthur, interim town manager. The town is covered chiefly by El Paso County with backup from Teller County as well as the Colorado State Patrol. Price’s report, distributed at the board meeting Feb. 4, was a response to a repeated request from former mayor Dick Bratton, who has expressed concern about the board’s removal of the marshal’s position and the subsequent resignation of Marshal Tim Bradley. Bratton has repeatedly asked for evidence of effective law enforcement in town, the number of arrests, traffic stops and other infractions. At the board meeting Feb. 4, Bratton read from a prepared statement. “I strongly believe that it is not the will of the taxpayers to do away with the Marshal’s Department,” he stated in part. “Indeed, the last Citizen Survey showed strong support for the Marshal’s Department.” Along with the patrols by the two coun-

While the case remains under investigation by the El Paso County Sheriff’s Office, there have been no arrests or information about the attack.

21st Annual Lake George Library Community Cook-off raises $350 70 attend to support library programs By Sonja Oliver

Three hundred and fifty dollars was raised at the 21st Annual Friends of the Lake George Library Community Cook-off event held on Jan. 25. Seventy community members with a taste for good, home cooking sampled 30 unique casserole recipes from 23 cooks to raise money that will be designated to support locally based library programs. Library Branch Manager Kim Plutt said the money goes toward things not covered by the library’s regular budget, such as the purchase of additional books, audio books, DVDs and the summer reading program. “This year I’d like to spend some of the money on science books and experiments for the kids for the summer reading program. It’s focus is on science and math,” Plutt stated in an email. This year’s cooking theme was “casseroles,” and the judging categories were humorous as well as challenging. “We were really happy with the turnout with all of the cooks participating, and it was great food,” said Plutt. According to Plutt, the cookbooks should be available by the end of February at a cost of $3 each or two for $5. Some cookbooks are still available from past
years’ cook-off events. The money raised from the cookbook sales will also go toward library programs. For more information on the purchase of the cookbooks, call 748-3812. Lion’s Pride, the Lake George Charter School’s Parent Teacher Organization, was also represented at the event with people selling chocolate candy to raise funds for the school’s playground. Lion’s Pride members also helped with the cleanup following the cook-off event.
Winners The favorite casserole recipe belonged to Alexi Alfieri’s Baked Penne with RoastedVeggies, which won honors in three categories. Winners and their recipes were as follows: Campbell’s Soup Classic: Souper Chick n’ Ham Bake - Donna Knudten Everything but the Kitchen Sink: Baked Penne with Roasted Veggies – Alexi Alfieri.

Silver Tsunami coming soon By Pat Hill
phill@coloradocommunitymedia.com Editor’s note: A report released in January highlights the upcoming range of needs for the senior population, which is charted to increase in the Pikes Peak Region by 179 percent. In the next few months, the Courier will focus on issues facing people over 65 in the Ute Pass area. Here they come, ready or not. Billed as the “silver tsunami,” the onslaught of senior citizens in the next two decades will put more demands on services in the Pikes Peak Region. In Teller County, in the next 20 years the population of people 65 and older is expected to increase by 157 percent. Rather than wait for the tsunami to overwhelm, a group of citizens in Colorado Springs developed a plan to help seniors in the region stay in their homes. “To us, aging in place is what we can do to support agencies that are more holistic in their services,” said Beth Roalstad, executive director of Innovations in Aging, a nonprofit organization dedicated to identifying issues and obstacles for people in their senior years. The organization initiated an analysis in conjunction with Peak Vista Community Health Centers. Admittedly idealistic, Roalstad combines optimism with a bit of admonition. “To me, having aging-in-place programs in neighborhoods isn’t just about safety, it’s about being fully connected to your com-
munity,” she said. However, with today’s transient society and seniors separated from their families, community is more important than ever. “This is a challenge across the U.S.,” Roalstad said. “I think if we get enough people together who say ‘what’s the next chapter in my life?’ then we co-create that together, rather than worrying about it over a cup of tea in the kitchen.” More than a problem for agencies and nursing homes, Roalstad considers the tsunami an opportunity to hark back to the good old days. “Work together; it’s like bringing back some old-fashioned values of America, that we live in community and need to be in connection,” she said. In Woodland Park, Arnie and Kathy Sparnins explore those same issues as a result of conversations recorded in “Voices of Grief,” a documentary to be released this year. “Since we’ve started this film we’ve really gotten to know more of our neighbors,” Kathy Sparnins said. “I think reaching out to people is vital; we are a species that longs for connection.” In a time when 71 percent of Americans don’t know their neighbors, too many seniors endure the agony of loss by suffering grief in silence. “No matter what, I think a lot of people are hesitant to reach out but the healthiest we’re going to be in body and spirit is to open up to one another,” she said. “Loss is a changing point in life where people are more aware of what’s important; sometimes it’s through grief that

In Woodland Park, the senior citizens’ club is a place to meet friends and join in life-enhancing activities. Courtesy photo triggers that — when you look back and say this was important to me.” For the Sparnins, the film has revealed unexplored emotions and evaluations. “How do you understand what’s important and how do you nurture it with relationships? You only grieve because you’ve loved,” Arnie Sparnins said. At Innovations in Aging, helping senior citizens surmount adversities such as grief, which can spawn depression and isolation, is part of the theme of enhancing lives through aging. “You start bringing back into this person’s life, things that add
meaning,” Roalstad said. The contrast between being young and aging is often tied to engagement and vibrancy within the community. “We happier, more future-oriented, positive and optimistic but as those things fall away from our regular lives, our world view gets smaller,” Roalstad said. “So how do we keep that world view expansive and fulfilling as we age? That’s where Innovations in Aging has a role in seeing the needs are met within the community. And I don’t have all the answers.”
Campbell Financial Corp. Investment Alternatives or Investments That Won’t Crash With The Market. I have learned that many people want help protecting and growing their nest eggs... in that order. In the last few years, people have told me they would forego their 1% CDs, or the opportunity to hit an investment jackpot, if only there was an alternative that offered stability and reasonable returns. They want a sense of financial well being, which includes being able to believe that their money and retirement lifestyles are reasonably safe. Today’s economy is international in scope; everything seems to affect everything else. My goal is to offer clients as much financial certainty as possible using products with good returns and consistent stability. Fortunately, “safe money” financial products are getting
719-687-6220 better and easier to find. Safe money products include fixed annuities and “alternative” investments that offer contractual safety and solid returns. They are “Alternative” in that they are not typically sold through brokerage companies. Campbell Financial specializes in offering alternatives like Structured Settlement Income Streams and First (Senior) Position Notes. Previously available only to institutional investors, we can now bring these opportunities to you.
Ownership of Structured Settlement Income Streams is guaranteed by a court order and highly rated life insurance companies. They are one of the safest forms of investment possible. Annual yields can be from 3.5% to 8.0% depending on the type of contract and are fixed for the term of the contract. Both short and long term contracts are available. Payouts may begin immediately or be deferred. It depends on your choice. First Position Notes are bridge loans that offer 1 year terms and interest rates up to 7% depending on the amount invested. These are secured by Commercial Real Estate in addition to other assets. If you want safe returns, I can assist you. Call me at 719-687-6220, and get the details atwww.CampbellFinancialCorp.com.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Continued from Page 9
There was absolutely no discussion at all concerning the actual facts that came from months of research and investigation by City Staff. Some of the facts the Council was told about by the City Planning Dept,. and was also included in their information packet, included: 1) Staff feels this use meets ALL the requirements necessary to be located in the area proposed. 2) Staff does not feel the proposed use will endanger the public health and welfare. 3) This site is located in a mixed use area (i.e., Bed and Breakfast, single family residential, townhomes, restaurant and retail business) with ample buffering between the uses.
4) The proposed residence care home would be the first of its kind to come to this area and this supports the City of Woodland Park Comprehensive Plan goal for enhanced Community Well-being. 5) City Finance, Utilities and Engineering, along with the Planning staff have all reviewed this application and provided feedback to support approval in accordance with ALL 11 relevant City standards and regulations. 6) Traffic will not increase beyond the average 10 daily trips normally calculated for single family residential homes. 7) The proposed use will not create any significant safety hazards. 8) The Planning Commission public hearing took place on Jan. 9, 2014 and resulted in a unanimous recommendation for approval.
So clearly the City Council was ignoring ALL the facts presented by the City Planning Dept. and they were only responding to the fear of a few people about what might happen to property values, when admittedly none of the City Council members have any idea if there would be any impact whatsoever. This is why I am so disappointed to discover this city’s leadership appears to be controlled by fear rather than facts. The legal counsel for the City brought up the fact that there may be some legal ADA (Americans Disabilities Act) issues, which there are, that should be addressed before voting on the issue. As a result, some of the Council members wanted to table the vote until they had the legal questions answered, however, Mayor Turley was pushing to ignore the legal issues and take a vote now. Finally, they decided to table the vote until the next meeting but made it clear they did not want any more public input into this important issue. In conclusion the facts are, The City al-
lows for a Home Care Residence within the City limits and says it must be in a residential area only. There is an extensive application process and fees associated with applying for the conditional use permit. Over a 2 month period, All the required steps were approved by the City Finance, Utilities and Engineering, along with the Planning staff and they all provided feedback to support approval in accordance with ALL 11 relevant City standards and regulations. In addition, the Planning Commission public hearing took place on January 9, 2014 and resulted in a unanimous recommendation for approval. So if the City Council denies this conditional use permit after all the required steps were taken, and approved, it would appear to me that this is a clear case of discrimination of the part of the City Council. It is my sincere hope that our City Council can make a rational decision based on the actual facts and not based on the fear of the unknown. Rick Hobbs

Matching Grant! Little Chapel Food Pantry has been given an amazing offer of a matching grant for $25,000 to help erect a new building to house our food pantry. Our faithful volunteers are currently working outside in every kind of weather. This building would bring them out of the cold before next winter, but we need your help! We are out of room in our current facility. In view of this amazing opportunity, we are hoping that the entire community will come together to help. If we can raise $25,000 by March 31st, we will get another $25,000 to match it. Those funds, along with the $30,000 we have already raised for the building fund, will give us enough to break ground this Spring, and to erect the two connecting steel buildings we have already had donated to us behind the current Food Pantry. A donation of any kind will help. Please make donations payable to Little Chapel Food Pantry and mark them “building fund” to make sure that it goes toward the matching grant. Send to: 69 County Road 5, Divide, CO 80814, or call us at 719-322-7610 to donate by credit or debit card. Thank you for helping us feed the hungry in Teller and Park Counties!

Planning has already begun for USA Pro Cycling Challenge Woodland Park will be the starting point for Stage 5 By Danny Summers
Dsummers@ coloradocommunitymedia.com Local organizers of the USA Pro Cycling Challenge are hoping that come August the city of Woodland Park and all of Teller County are overrun with bicycle enthusiasts and race fans who want a glimpse at some of the world’s top riders. Locally, a committee headed by promotions guru Mike Perini is laying the groundwork for the Woodland Park stage that will begin the morning of Aug. 22. The stage ends in Breckenridge. “We have some great men and women who have stepped up to be involved with this world-class event,” Perini said. “We have this up to mirror the USA Pro Chal-
lenge statewide.” Woodland Park will be the starting point of Stage 5 of the seven-stage event that takes place Aug. 18-24. The Woodland Park stage is expected to begin around 11 a.m. “It’s a journey to Aug. 22,” Perini said with a smile. The race will cover 600 miles feature 128 elite riders. Woodland Park had the race pass through the town in 2011 and 2012 and went to great lengths to make sure the event went off without a hitch while in Teller County. Woodland Park City Manager David Buttery estimates there were as many as 5,500 people lined up along Highway 24 when the race came through town in 2012. “We really need an array of volunteers to help us as we get closer, and of course, the day of the event,” Perini said. “The days leading up to the race and the day of the race will be a festival atmosphere.” According to Perini, the USA Pro Chal-
lenge is on a similar level as the Super Bowl, U.S Open and Daytona 500 in terms of the scale of the event. More than one million people are expected to attend the race. “The world is coming to Woodland Park,” Perini said. “The world is looking at us to see how we do. “One hundred plus countries will have the event on television so we have to do this right.” The unique thing about a bike race is that the riders are usually very accessible to the fans and media the day of the race. The City of Woodland Park is looking to enhance that experience by creating a course through town in which the riders make one to two loops before heading off to Breckenridge. The fourth stage takes place in Colorado Springs. Most, if not all riders, according to Perini, will spend that night in Colorado Springs and head up to Woodland Park the day of the race. “I expect the town to double in size,”
Perini said. By Stage 5 there will likely be some separation between the elite riders and the pack. “The good thing about Stage 5 is that it’s a good point in the race,” Perini said. “It’s a great position for us. You really see who the leaders are and you can rally around them.” Perini and his staff are reaching out to the head USA Pro Challenge organizers and asking if it is a possibility to have advanced appearances of team members. More should be known in the coming months. Perini has already set up a Facebook page for the race. Go to https://www.facebook.com/usaprochallengewoodlandpark. You can also get more information by going to the City of Woodland Park web site at http://www.city-woodlandpark.org/home / and clicking on “Stage 5 Start” on the left side of the page. The Woodland Park School District has already announced that its schools will be closed the day of the race.

Dear Editor: After a “spirited” board of trustees meeting, I felt compelled to write to you again. There was so much animosity focused on me, and a great deal of misinformation that I thought you would like to see cleared up. Once again, I am on the recall list by the Concerned Citizens of Green Mountain Falls. That is their right and I support the spirit of civic involvement. This time, however, it is a bit different. You see, I am term-limited, meaning I cannot run to be a trustee again at election time in April. A recall has no effect as I cannot be a trustee during the upcoming term. The Concerned Citizens group is recalling me and state that the purpose of this is to “educate the people.” I would beg to differ; I would say it is to confuse the voter and to smear my name. In a recall election, the election must have both the person being recalled and a person to replace the recalled candidate on the ballot. If the recall election is complete on March 31, the replacement person will be in office one day as the regular election will be on April 1. If the recall is to occur on April 1, (which is the committee’s goal) and held in conjunction with the regular election, then what happens? Who is rightfully elected? The person who is the recall replacement candidate, or the person on the ballot? This is just confusing to everyone. It is a fact that Mayor Lorrie Worthey and her husband as well as trustee Tyler Stevens and his wife are actively involved with the recall effort and with the Concerned Citizens group. That seems to be, at the very least, a conflict of interest to actively move to recall the majority of the board members, especially when the Mayor is responsible to lead and represent the board. The charges leveled against me in the recall document are false. Because I am an elected official, anyone can say anything about me at any time. Unfortunately, this allows misinformation to be spread in the name of education. I learned a long time ago in Polly Lamb’s Sunday school that lying is wrong and spreading lies is malicious gossip. Why would anyone want to lie about me? I would guess that they are afraid that I will run for mayor. They would like to have a “pre-emptive strike” against me, tell lies that frighten people and make me look like an unsavory character. What is the purpose of that? Is it because my record of action is strong? Because I can make tough, rational decisions — even when they may be unpopular? Sometimes the right thing to do — the responsible thing to do — can be scary. But I forge ahead and do what is
right, responsible, within the budget and the law. I’ve contributed in many ways since serving on the board. I’ve secured grants, including those to rebuild the tennis court, the pool fence and the basketball court. I work on the committee to re-build town hall, and when the mayor failed to show up, I acted in my role as Mayor Pro Tem and represented the town on the presentation group that secured the Department of Local Affairs funding. I write ordinances and resolutions to attempt to make the town a better, more orderly and peaceful place. I challenged the census — and while only modestly successful, I worked closely with the Federal Census bureau to do so. I’ve worked with employees, board members, planning commission members, citizens and many others who are outside our town. I call that type of involvement networking — but there are those who have accused me of being part of the “good old boy” system. That statement is silly. I work with many people and know how to work within a group to get things done. I am not an obstructionist; I fight for what is right, but I know when to compromise. I’m not afraid to contribute my blood, sweat and tears, as I’ve said before. I’m not content to sit back and tell others what to do. I can and will do the work, whether that is collaborating with others, writing grants or asking entities for help. At the end of the day, most of us want the same thing: healthy, happy families. We hope for a great community with less stress and less strife. For myself, I like people who are not afraid to work; who will work to better the community; who point fingers less and get down to business more; people who don’t make excuses and especially people who are problem-solvers. Does that mean I am running for mayor? It is clear that Green Mountain Falls needs a credible and experienced leader and I am thinking very seriously about running for Mayor. Thank you, Jane Newberry Dear Editor: It was a pleasure talking with you and recalling our ski venture. The article also brought it all back. Thanks for thinking of us and for the nice memories. Part of us remains in Teller County — you and the Courier crew keep it alive for us. Cheers. Harlan and Kay Nimrod, Colorado Springs

Lots of smiles on signing day Woodland Park duo of Logan Watters and Mallorie Trichell signed their National Letters of Intent on Feb. 6 By Danny Summers Dsummers@coloradocommunitymedia.com Mother Nature threw a curve ball with a frigid winter storm last week, but it did little to damper the mood for two Woodland Park High School students that are headed to college next fall. Mallorie Trichell and Logan Watters were the center of attention on Feb. 6 during a festive party in school’s library. That’s
because they signed their National Letters of Intent. Trichell will attend Northeastern Junior College in Sterling and play softball. Watters will play football for Division II South Dakota School of Mines near Rapid City. “This has been exciting, but it’s also nerve-racking,” said Trichell, who plans to become an occupational therapist. “I’m excited that I still get to play, but it’s a big commitment to go to school and play.” Northeastern recruited Trichell as in infielder. Her lethal bat is also a big part of her game. Last season, Trichell batted .533 with one home run and 22 RBIs. As a junior in 2012, she led the state in home runs (9) and RBIs (41) while batting a whopping .571. Woodland Park was a combined 30-12 over that span and advanced to the Class
4A state regional tournament each season. “It’s been fun to watch the program grow and hopefully it grows more,” said Trichell, who maintains a weighted 3.5 GPA while taking advanced placement courses in environmental science and English, as well as honors math and honors trigonometry. Woodland Park softball coach Dale Huntington always believed that Trichell would someday play college softball. “She’s always been able to hit and she works extremely hard,” Huntington said. “When I met her she kept her head that this is the way she wanted to go. There was no doubt that she would be able to achieve that. “Her coaches (at Northeastern) are very lucky to have her. If she keeps her standards up she’ll be a winner for the next four years and that will carry on for life.”

Fossil Beds plans slash pile burning Feb. 18 Staff report Fire crews plan to take advantage of favorable winter weather conditions to burn piles of slash from several hazard fuels and hazard tree mitigation projects that have taken place in the Fossil Beds in the last few years. The primary reason for the project is to reduce the hazardous fuel buildup around the visitor center and on the fossil beds boundary that in turn would reduce the intensity of any future wildland fires that could potentially burn from the fossil beds onto private land. Slash pile burning operations are tentatively scheduled for Feb. 18 and will only begin when weather conditions allow. The piles are located west of the visitor center and on the north side of Lower Twin Rock Road. The Ponderosa Loop Trail will be temporarily closed during burning opera-
tions near the visitor center. No other trail or road closures are anticipated at this time. Signs will be posted along County Teller Road 1 and Lower Twin Rock Road. For safety purposes, fossil bed visitors are urged not to stop along the roadway or enter areas while burning operations are being conducted. Conditions are evaluated each day in advance of the burn to determine if ignition will be able to take place. Wind, fuel moisture, snow cover and availability of fire staffing all play a factor in where and whether ignition occurs. Safety factors, weather conditions, air quality and environmental regulations will continually be monitored as part of the daily slash burning operations. Adjustments will be made if conditions warrant changes. For additional information visit the park’s website at www.nps.gov/flfo, for visit Facebook/FlorissantNPS or call at (719)

Fossil Beds to waive entrance fees for holiday weekend Staff report Florissant Fossil Beds National Monument, along with America’s 400 other national park units, will waive entrance fees from Feb. 15 to 17 in honor of President’s Day weekend. Consider starting a visit in the monument’s new visitor center where one can
view the park film “Shadows of the Past,” explore hands-on exhibits, and visit the recently remodeled bookstore. Children can earn their Junior Ranger Badge or Patch through the free, Junior Ranger program. If hiking is more one’s style, there are many secluded trails at the park. If there is enough snow, guests are encourage to bring snowshoes or cross-country skis.
There are 14 miles of trails that wind through the peaceful, montane forests of the Florissant valley. The monument also has two picnic areas where one can have an outdoor lunch. Florissant Fossil Beds National Monument is open daily from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Florissant Fossil Beds will also provide a variety of ranger-guided activities during
the weekend: Saturday, Feb. 15, Backyard Bird Count, 9 a.m. to noon, meet at Visitor Center.

ARIES (Mar 21 to Apr 19) Seeing the silly side of some really ridiculous situations helps give the Lamb a new perspective on how to handle them. Some important contacts can be made this weekend. TAURUS (Apr 20 to May 20) Try to complete your outstanding tasks by midweek. This leaves you free to take advantage of new possibilities -- both professional and personal -- opening up by week’s end. GEMINI (May 21 to Jun 20) With both your creative side and your energy levels rising this week, you should be able to tackle that too-long-neglected project again.

CANCER (Jun 21 to Jul 22) An explanation you requested seems to be more confusing than enlightening. You should insist on clarifications now, rather than deal with problems that might arise later. LEO (Jul 23 to Aug 22) Your energy levels might be ebbing a bit. But that’s no excuse for taking catnaps when you could be working on those unfinished tasks. There’ll be time to curl up and relax by week’s end. VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22) It’s a good time to get those ideas out of your head and into a readable format if you hope to have them turned into something doable. A good friend is ready with worthwhile advice. LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) Careful -- you might be stepping into dangerous territory if you decide to “exaggerate” the facts too much. Remember: The truth speaks for itself and needs no embellishment. SCORPIO (Oct 23 to Nov 21) Although your workplace successes have earned you many admirers, there are some colleagues who are not among them. Be careful how you proceed with your new project. SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 to Dec 21) You might have to go into great detail to explain why you’re currently reluctant to make changes to an already prepared plan. Be sure you have all the facts to back yourself up. CAPRICORN (Dec 22 to Jan 19) Travel plans might still be uncertain. But instead of getting upset about the delay, open yourself up to other possibilities, and begin checking out some alternative destinations. AQUARIUS (Jan 20 to Feb 18) Changing conditions might require you to alter some of your plans. While you might be agreeable to this, be prepared with explanations for those who do not want changes made. PISCES (Feb 19 to Mar 20) Although you might have to deal with some detractors who aren’t too kind in their critiques, you gain points when you’re willing to stand up and defend your work.
