Candidates hit hot topics By Pat Hill
phill@colorado communitymedia.com With a new council candidate, albeit, unopposed, and an opponent for Mayor Dave Turley, the Woodland Park municipal election April 8 has been rejuvenated. In a candidate forum March 19, Noel Sawyer was the new kid on the block while city councilman Gary Brovetto is challenging Turley as a write-in candidate. If he loses, Brovetto will remain on the council. Ken Matthews and John Schafer are returning for a second term. Hot-button issues in the question-andanswer session included the Woodland Aquatic Project, economic development and the Pro Cycling Challenge Aug. 22. “The financial health of Woodland Park is very sound; we’ve been able to build a reserve,” Schafer said, adding that the city has $500,000 in reserve. “So that reflects some of the things we want to do.” While 80 percent of residents who responded to a survey listed an aquatic center as a priority, Schafer was blunt. “The financials we have seen indicate there will probably be a $200,000 shortfall each year of operation,” he said. One option, he
said, might be to ask the taxpayers to fund the shortfall, he said. The Pro Cycling Challenge puts Woodland Park on the map, he said. As well, Schafer highlighted the economic potential of the Main Street project and the application to be approved as a Creative Arts District. Turley highlighted the potential for increased revenue from Woodland Station, a project of the Downtown Development Authority, as well as the entrance of Charis Bible College. The improvements in Memorial Park are another attraction that brings people into the city. “Everybody understands what a jewel the park is,” Turley said. Four years ago, voters turned down a request of a 1-percent tax increase to build an aquatic center. “You have to understand where folks are and see if you can do things with increased revenue,” Turley said. The city is responsible, first of all, for infrastructure, public safety, parks, water, sewer, roads and drainage, for instance, Brovetto said. “Once we have enough money, then we can increase quality-oflife opportunities such as an aquatic center, or event center,” Brovetto said. “We’ve

As the new candidate, Sawyer said he didn’t have enough information to reply.
Over the years, the chamber and the Downtown Development Authority have come a long way in making things work, Matthews said. Acknowledging the role of Topics continues on Page 5
City goes under magnifying lens Public welcome to Main Street meeting By Pat Hill
phill@colorado communitymedia.com Woodland Park is on display for two days next week while a team of professionals assesses the town’s strengths and weaknesses. The exercise is a preliminary to being accepted into the Colorado Main Street Program. “The designation gives us legitimacy, access to resources,” said Vera Egbert, chairman of the Main Street committee. As well, the city of Woodland Park will be included in collective advertising, nationally as well as internationally, Egbert said. Managed by the Colorado Department of Local Affairs, the program is designed to assist communities in revitalizing their downtown corridors. The program is funded by grants from the State Historical Fund. The Community Assessment March 31 and April 1 is among the steps to achieving the designation. “If we get accepted we’ll more than likely create a 501c(3) as a conduit for funding,” said Brian Fleer, executive director of Economic and Downtown Development. The committee is encouraged by the financial support from the city, which kicked in $10,000 while the Regional Building De-

The program is managed by the Department of Local Affairs. Photo by Pat Hill partment added $5,000 to complete the funding for the assessment. “The team will give us an assessment about where they think we should spend our time and money to make Woodland Park successful,” Egbert said. “They are talking to all these different groups; they want the good, the bad and the ugly.” As a preliminary, the Main Street board did its own assessment. The city’s strengths, for instance, include Farmers Market,

the Harvest Center, Rocky Mountain Dinosaur Center, the natural beauty and a strong arts community. Among the city’s weaknesses are bad attitudes about growth, lack of on-street parking and few family-oriented businesses. As well, development is threatened by a divided business community, smaller middle-class income, empty storefronts and aging demographics. The team does the assessment based on four premises, organizations, promotions/marketing,
economic development and historic-preservation design. The team includes people in the professions of architecture, business, construction, retail and marketing. “They canvas communities, do tours, talk to people,” Fleer said. “They basically want to get the pulse of Woodland Park based on those four premises.” While the boundary is the traditional downtown area, the designation will offer trickle-down benefits throughout the entire city. “We’ve had tremendous success with the overall retail, par-

ticularly at the national level, as evidenced by sales-tax growth,” Fleer said. “But we’ve had issues at times with the downtown corridor. We need to get a handle on how we make that corridor strong, viable and consistently successful. “ Eventually there will be a Main Street coordinator to help plan community events, a position funded by the city. “I see this as a function of working together with the chamber,” Fleer said, referring to the Greater Woodland Park Chamber of Commerce. With a coordinator, the city enhances the chances to attract a variety of tourists. “We have a lot of groups that do a lot of things; and we know that summertime in Woodland Park is very limited,” Egbert said. “So let’s think about things that complement each other. We want to bring all these groups together; to date, that’s not happened.” With Main Street designation, the goal is to have the buy-in of the various groups that previously were divided. “That’s my hope, my vision,” she said. “Once you’re accepted into the program there are a whole series of things you work on before you actually get the designation.” The committee presents the findings of Community Assessment in a public meeting at 6 p.m. on April 1 at the Ute Pass Cultural Center.

Accessory dwellings ordinance passes muster Council approves ordinance unanimously By Norma Engelberg Contributing writer
Unless their covenants specifically prohibit it, Woodland Park homeowners will now be allowed to add accessory dwelling units, typically called “mother-in-law apartments” to their single-family homes. Almost five months in the making, the ordinance, which was approved at the March 20 Woodland Park City Council meeting, allows these small, rentable spaces to be constructed within the primary home, in an addition to the home or over a detached garage on the same property. It started with a joint Woodland Park Planning Commission/City Council meeting Sept. 26. The planning department drafted the ordinance and the commissioners worked on it through three work sessions before giving their final recommendation of approval at their Feb. 27 meeting. At this time, the ordinance does not allow the construction of detached cottages and certain restrictions apply, including submitting drawings, getting permits, having the work inspected as it is accomplished and paying the appropriate fees. Also the owner must renew their accessory dwelling unit permit annually. The renewal is free. Homeowners would also have to meet nine standards. Accessory dwelling units that already exist will be considered legal nonconforming units. These will be mapped and tracked as they are found. If the homeowner makes changes to these preexisting units that require a building permit, they
will have to bring the units up to current codes. In that case, they will no longer be “nonconforming.” Single family homes with accessory units will not be considered duplexes. The accessory unit will share water and sewer taps with the primary unit. Woodland Park Utilities Director Kip Wiley said: “One lot, one tap; one owner, one tap; but they will have to pay for (additional) water usage, likely at a higher rate.” Architect Ken Hartsfield had questions about building code on new construction, specifically requirements for such things as firewalls and separate heating and airconditioning equipment. City Planning Director Sally Riley said she would get the specifics from Regional Building. Councilmembers agreed that building codes should not be addressed in the ordinance because it pertains to zoning not building. At the last council meeting Councilmember Carrol Harvey asked about homeowner association covenants. City Attorney Erin Smith said most of these were written before the concept of accessory dwelling units was considered and many are open to interpretation. She said that if an association wants to specifically allow or prohibit these units, it should amend its covenants accordingly. Riley said her department is willing to help homeowner associations come up with the appropriate changes. Mayor Pro Tem Eric Smith, sitting in for an absent Mayor Dave Turley, said people will still be allowed to rent out rooms in their homes. The space only becomes an accessory unit if it meets basic habitability standards including the addition of a cook stove. City code allows up to five unrelated people to live in a single family home. Removing the stove is all that is necessary to
Woodland Park City Clerk Cindy Morse swears in Philip Mella as a new city planning commissioner. He served on city council from 2002-2008 and will replace Stephen Yoxheimer who resigned in February. Photo by Norma Engelberg turn the accessory dwelling unit back into just another space. Planning Commissioner Jon DeVaux asked council to approve the ordinance saying, “I have a hard time understanding living in a community where grandma can’t live downstairs and bake a pie if she wants to. (If this doesn’t pass) people are going to do this anyway. I would rather see a properly vented stove instead of a hotplate plugged into an extension cord that is plugged into an outlet with five other plugs.” Planning Commissioner Geoff Watson also asked council to approve the ordinance. Councilmember John Schafer said ap-
proving this ordinance was a small step in the right direction. The council also appointed former councilmember Philip Mella to the planning commission, replacing Stephen Yoxheimer who resigned last month. Councilmember Gary Brovetto reported that the Woodland Park Creative Arts District letter of intent was not chosen for the short list this year by Colorado Creative Industries, a division of the Colorado Office of Economic Development and International Trade. “They were so impressed with our letter of intent that they want to help us with the next round,” Brovetto said. “This gives us more time to prepare.”

Hey, don’t tread on me By Pat Hill
phill@coloradocommunitymedia.com In a letter addressed to the Colorado Patriots, Marc Dettenrieder seeks 3,000 signatures on a petition to bring the “Don’t Tread On Me” license plates to the state. In the letter, Dettenrieder urges supporters to make an informal commitment to purchase the plates when they go on the market. Highlighting his conservative credentials, Dettenrieder writes that the United States was founded on liberty, free markets and fiscal responsibility. “Let’s carry this message forward on the roads of Colorado
and remind our fellow citizens how important it is to stand up for our time-tested Constitutional principles,” he writes. In taking the campaign on the road, Dettenrieder cites six states that have the plates, Texas, Arizona, South Carolina, Virginia, Missouri and Oklahoma. “We urge you to sign this ‘Don’t Tread On Me’ licenseplate petition as an informal commitment that you will purchase this plate when it goes to market,” Dettenrieder writes. “A one-time fee of $50 will be required to purchase this license plate.” Each year thereafter, the standard vehicle-registration fee will apply. Supporters plan to collect signatures through this year
Betty Clark-Wine seeks to petition onto the ballot Staff report Teller County Assessor Betty Clark-Wine is petitioning onto the ballot for the Republican primary and must collect 723 signatures of registered Republicans by March 31. Clark-Wine is seeking the Republican nomination to run for a second term. “Time is short and I want to get accurate information to the voters. I will state my record of the work I’ve done for Teller County. Less than 1 percent of the Republicans should not choose for all of Teller County based on the misinformation, rumors and lies that were circulating prior to and at the assembly. It is important that the voters be fully informed and have a choice at the primary.” Betty Clark-Wine has 38 years experience in real estate and has worked for CDOT and the city of Colorado Springs. She
was elected Teller County Assessor in 2010. She graduated from the University of Texas at Dallas with a Bachelor’s degree in business administration and a Master’s degree of public administration from the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs. ClarkWine is a registered appraiser, a Colorado real estate broker, and a certified professional landman. Clark-Wine has participated as a volunteer with CASA, Christmas Unlimited, the Victor Elks Christmas Basket Project, and the Challenger Learning Center. She serves as the Transportation Committee chair for Action 22, secretary for the Colorado Assessor Association, and committee member for the State Appraiser Trainee Licensing Taskforce. Clark-Wine served four years on Woodland Park City Council. She and her husband, Gary Wine, have two daughters, five grandchildren, and a great-grandchild.
and put forth a bill in the 2015 legislative session. If successful, license plates should be ready for purchase sometime in the middle of next year. The signatures are a preliminary to submitting the petition to the Colorado Department of Revenue for review. After approval, a bill must be passed in the State Legislature. “We are fortunate to have a House sponsor who is interested in carrying our bill at the State Capitol. The bill will pass and then off to the governor’s mansion it goes for signature,” Dettenrieder writes. The petition is available at http://www. ipetitions.com/petition/dont-tread-onme.

Recovered cat needs surgery TCRAS reaches out to community By Mary Steinbeiser For the Courier
A sweet-natured young cat—a rare breed known as an American Curl—who is badly injured and in need of surgery, will get another shot at a full life thanks to a caring Teller County resident and the Teller County Regional Animal Shelter. The cuddly gray and white kitty is being kept comfortable at a veterinarian’s office until surgery can be performed at the end of the week. TCRAS has launched a fundraising effort on behalf of the cat that the shelter has named Capone to help defray the cost, which will amount to hundreds of dollars. The cat was delivered to the shelter March 17 by a woman who had found him curled up on her porch in Cascade. When she tried to rouse him, she was horrified to see his left back leg dangling. He was unable to walk on it, and although the cat was in obvious pain, he purred and reached toward her, and made it clear he wanted to be held. Shelter folks had never seen a cat quite like this one before he was presented to them. Capone has very unusual ears—they stand up and curl back. He has a very luxurious coat and a huge tail like an ostrich plume. After conducting some research, the staff came to the realization that he’s an American Curl, a breed that is very new to the cat world. Capone was rushed to the veterinarian’s office and given pain management in order to keep him comfortable while the shelter posted him on their “found animals” listing, and made calls to local vets, and cat people, assuming that he would be missed and his owner frantic. But no one came forward and once all avenues had been pursued, the shelter concluded it is in Capone’s best interest to move forward and
After suffering severe injuries, Capone the cat needs surgery. Courtesy photos get him onto the road to recovery. One rear leg is battered; the x-ray revealed a severe break in several places, injuries that likely resulted from being struck by a car. Treatment will involve extensive surgery and long-term after-care. This will be an expensive endeavor for this nonprofit shel-
ter that is a privately run, no-kill shelter and receives funding from donations and grants. Large medical emergencies such as this can completely deplete the medical fund that is designated for the animals. Even with his injuries, Capone is a happy sweet-tempered guy who is always
ready for a rub and makes sure visitors know he’s a lover. Donations to the shelter’s medical fund can be made online or by sending a check to PO Box 904, Divide, CO 80814 Once he is fully recovered—which is likely to be several months—a new family will be found for Capone.

The symposium is presented by Midland Days at Divide, Inc. The theme of the symposium will be “Tunnels in Time” — a retrospective look at the 18 tunnels cut along the Colorado Midland Railway and Midland Terminal Railroad routes. Plenty of historical photos will be shared as well as information about the tunnels, their locations and impact on the railroad. In addition, other presentations will focus on special aspects of railroad operation or history. Limited tours through the Midland Depot at Divide may be scheduled after the symposium ends if enough attendees are interested. Seating will be limited. Advanced reservations, at $55 per person, are encouraged. Reservations should be made on or before May 4 by calling David Martinek at 719-213-9335

The agenda for the day will include presentations — including numerous historical photographs — interviews and conversations between local author and historian, Mel McFarland, and local historians Tom VanWormer, Art Crawford and other guests. Martinek, T.H.E. Coalition Chair and co-founder of Midland Days at Divide, Inc., will moderate the discussions and present, as well. A special guest presenter or two is also planned. Refreshments throughout the day and lunch will be served. All proceeds from the “2014 Midland Days” symposium will help support Midland Days and Divide, Inc. and future symposiums, as well as the Midland Depot at Divide Preservation Project. Reservations may be paid in advance by mail, c/o Midland Days, P.O. Box 1088, Divide, CO 80814, or upon arrival, checks — to “T.H.E Coalition” — cash or credit card.

Sunnyside: Avoiding the wrong place at the right time We have all been there. My dad called them “Oh crap! moments,” but some are worse than others. In the mining and exploration industry, my brother tells of the dangerous predicament of “setting a post” or a concrete plug that blows out of a well head at extreme velocity, destroying everything in its path. At Lake Peigneur, La., there was “the swirling vortex of doom.” Nov. 21, 1980, a 12-man Texaco drilling crew was forced to stop by loud popping noises, the precarious leaning of the rig, and then a fresh-water lake covering 1,300 acres in about 11feet of water creates a steadily accelerating whirlpool a quarter of a mile in diameter, with its center directly over the drill site and drops 3.5 billion gallons of water (during about three hours) into Diamond Crystal Salt Mine, just below. Fifty miners are still in the the mine, rigs and other structures are being pulled into the vortex. “Meanwhile, up on the surface, the tremendous sucking power of the whirlpool was causing violent destruction. It swal-
lowed another nearby drilling platform whole, as well as a barge loading dock, 70 acres of soil from Jefferson Island, trucks, trees, structures, and a parking lot. The sucking force was so strong that it reversed the flow of a 12-mile-long canal which led out to the Gulf of Mexico, and dragged 11 barges from that canal into the swirling vortex, where they disappeared into the flooded mines below. It also overtook a manned tug on the canal, which struggled against the current for as long as possible before the crew had to leap off onto the canal bank and watch as the lake consumed
their boat,” according to damninteresting. com. After three hours, the lake was drained of its 3.5 billion gallons of water. The water from the canal, now flowing in from the Gulf of Mexico, formed a 150-foot waterfall into the crater where the lake had been, filling it with salty ocean water. As the canal refilled the crater over the next two days, nine of the sunken barges popped back to the surface like corks, though the drilling rigs and tug were left entombed in the ruined salt mine, said the site. Despite the enormous destruction of property, no human life was lost in this disaster, nor were there any serious injuries. Within two days, what had previously been an 11-foot-deep freshwater body was replaced with a 1,300-foot-deep saltwater lake. The lake’s biology was changed drastically, and it became home to many species of plants and fish which had not been there previously. Here in Colorado, just a few years before, there was Lake Emma, and the Sun-
nyside Mine incident. “On June 4, 1978, a major physical disaster struck the Sunnyside Mine. At that time rich gold was being mined on the Spur vein under Lake Emma. although previous core drilling had been done to determine that the mine was a safe distance from the bottom of the lake, 70 feet above. The lake had been formed thousands of years ago by the scouring action of a glacier. When the glacier passed over the hard quartz-gold vein, it plucked a thin sliver of rock from the downhill side of the vein. The silver, about 20 feet in diameter, extended downward about 65 feet below the bottom of the lake,” wrote Allen G. Bird in “Silverton Gold,” in 1986. “On a Sunday afternoon, when the mine crews were at home, Lake Emma broke through the spot and emptied thousands of gallons of water and over one million tons of mud into the mine.

Take me out to the ball game, Opening Day is almost here! On Sunday, March 30, Major League Baseball will begin its 2014 regular season. Yes, I am aware that the Dodgers and Diamondbacks played a couple of games in the land down under March 22 and 23. From what I understand, vegemite sandwiches were all the rage. I even heard that the kangaroo tastes like chicken, though I have no desire to throw one on the grill anytime soon. Baseball is America’s National Pastime. It has been played - pretty much in the form we know it today — since the 1840s when Henry Chadwick laid out the first rules. Sure, there have been changes along the way. Equipment has improved and the fields are better maintained than even 30 years ago. But it is still a game that is played with 90-foot bases and nine players to a side. Baseball is a grand old game. It is an acquired taste. If you don’t grow up playing it and watching it, you probably don’t understand the subtle nuances and you might get lost. Most everyone knows three strikes and you’re out. But did you know that there are 23 different ways to reach first base? Were you aware that it’s possible for a pitcher to earn a victory without ever throwing a pitch?
PIKES PEAK COURIER
Baseball is the only sport where the defense has the ball. Think about it, the defense has a huge advantage in baseball. Almost nothing happens until the pitcher releases the ball from his hand. When he does, all craziness begins. It can be as entertaining as Abbott and Costello’s “Who’s on First” routine. Baseball also has Babe Ruth. I believe the Bambino is still the most well-known sports personality in the world. And he’s been dead for 66 years. I challenge you to ask anybody — boy or girl — older than the age of 16 who Babe Ruth is and they will likely tell you — without hesitation — that he was a baseball player. They may even add that he played for the Yankees. The Babe’s fame is not confined to

America. When I was in Europe two summers ago I asked a number of folks if they knew who the Babe was. Only a few of them gave me the deer in the headlights look. I am aware that a whole new generation of Americans believes that stars like Michael Jordan, Tiger Woods, LeBron James and Peyton Manning trump the Babe in terms of popularity. Those Millennials would be wrong. Remember, even they know about the Bambino, despite playing X-Box 12 hours a day. Here are a couple of predictions for you to chew on for this season. The Colorado Rockies will win between 81 and 86 games and the Colorado Springs Sky Sox will advance to the postseason for the first time since 1997. The Yankees will win the American League East and the Kansas City Royals will win the AL Central — advancing to the playoffs for the first time since 1985. Speaking of the Yankees, they will win a Classic seven-game World Series over the Los Angeles Dodgers. I mentioned earlier that there are 23 different ways to reach first base. Here they are: Walk; intentional walk; hit by pitch,
dropped third strike; failure to deliver pitch in 20 seconds; catcher interference; fielder interference; spectator interference; fan obstruction; fair ball hits umpire; fair ball hits runner; fielder obstructs runner; pinch-runner; fielder’s choice; force out at another base; preceding runner put-out allows batter to reach first; sacrifice bunt fails to advance runner; sacrifice fly dropped; runner called out on appeal; error; four illegal pitches; single; game suspended with runner on first (that player is traded prior to the makeup game, meaning a new player is allowed to take his place). Here is one way a pitcher can be credited with a victory without throwing a pitch. First of all, he must enter the game as a reliever with his team trailing or tied and a least one runner on base. Let’s say he picks off the base runner for the final out of the inning. In the next half of the inning his team scores the go-ahead run and never relinquishes the lead. He would then qualify as the winning pitcher. This scenario has happened many times in the majors. Rockies pitcher Alan Embree accomplished the feat in 2009.
Train held up near Divide Now, as you read this, remember that the great train robbers did not do much in Colorado. Also think about how these stories are shown in the movies. The night Colorado Midland passenger train to Leadville had passed through Divide. At Florissant Deputy Sheriff Colchesser met the train as it rolled in and made a thorough investigation of conditions. The train was riddled with bullets. The express car was full of holes as was the car adjoining. It was said more than fifty shots were fired. Colorado Midland’s passenger train left Denver at 7:30 in the evening and arrived at Colorado Springs between 9:30 and 10. It left Colorado Springs on time and reached Divide without mishap. About five miles west of Divide the engineer received a signal to slow up, thinking something was wrong he slackened the speed of the train, immediately out of the darkness sprung a number of men who boarded the train. One of the robbers with a revolver in each hand approached Engineer Stuart and demanded that he throw up his hands. Stuart feigned doing so, but instead grabbed one of the guns. There was a fierce struggle which resulted finally in the robber being shot to death. The other robbers hearing the shots immediately began firing at the train. The train men responded, and the passengers also lent a hand, with the result that there was a perfect fusillade of shots. Feeling themselves outclassed, the bandits took to the hills. Sheriff Von Phul of Cripple Creek was at once notified and soon had a posse of
deputy sheriffs en route to the scene. In the death of the bandit who attempted to rob the express car, there he carried to the grave a plot to carry off probably $50,000 in gold. Three posses searched the hills for two possible bandits. Several places where horse thieves are known to hide their loot were searched. There was no trace whatever of men on horseback in these regions. The supposed bandit was seen in Florissant the afternoon before the hold up, according to residents of that town who viewed the body. He was with two other men. This man asked for the barber shop but as the town did not have one, he was given a razor to shave himself. Although identified as John Timbach or Alvin Johnson, the identity of the robber who attempted the holdup was still in question. A rancher, in Divide identified the body as that of a man who was sitting on the station platform at Divide with three tramps. This is where the 1910 story wanders off. No further information has turned up. Who knows who he was, but it never happened again. Oh, and the train’s engineer was given a gold watch for his service to the company!

Muscle and Longevity: Strength training is for everyone Move over muscle-heads! Science has once again confirmed that strength training is for everyone … regardless of age. Earlier this month, researchers from UCLA’s David Geffen School of Medicine published a study in the American Journal of Medicine contending that the more muscle mass you have, the longer you’ll live. The new findings add to a growing body of evidence that one’s fat-to-muscle ratio is a much better indicator of longevity than the commonly used body-massindex (BMI). BMI measures the ratio of body weight to height and can be quite misleading. Those who carry a significant amount of muscle have a tendency to score false-high on BMI and there are those who are underweight and over-fat that have great BMI’s. The researchers analyzed data collected by the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) III, conducted between 1988 and 1994. The control group of 3,659 subjects was comprised of men who were 55 or older and women
who were 65 or older at the time of the survey. A 2004 follow-up survey tracked how many of those individuals died from natural causes. The subjects’ body composition was measured using bioelectrical impedance, which uses a mild electrical current that is run through the body. The resulting data gave each person’s ratio of muscle-to-fat. The researchers used that data to establish a muscle mass index measuring the amount of muscle relative to height, which the scientists say is a more accurate way to look at a person’s body composition than
BMI. When they looked at the relationship between MMI and the research subjects longevity, they found that the higher the muscle mass, the lower the incidents of allcause mortality. “In other words, the greater your muscle mass, the lower your risk of death,” says the study’s co-author Dr. Arun Karlamangia. “Our study indicates that clinicians need to be focusing on ways to improve body composition, rather than on BMI alone, when counseling older adults on preventative health behaviors.” Need some additional reasons to get up off the couch and get to the gym? Strength training increases your metabolic rate, improves your glucose metabolism and increases your bone density. If you know what you’re doing in the gym, now’s the time to get going. Spring is here and soon you’ll be able to take your re-discovered strength and get outside and play. If a weight room looks like the console of the Starship Enterprise to you, join a lo-
cal gym and hire a personal trainer. It’s the best investment you’ll ever make in your health and longevity. And if you think you’re too old to start pumping iron, check out Ernestine Shepard (http://ernestineshepherd.net/), who at the age of 77 holds the Guinness World Record for the oldest living female body builder … and she looks awesome! Shepard gets up at 3 am each morning to get in her weightlifting routine before she goes to work as a personal trainer. So, it’s never too late to start strength training. God invented death to tell you it’s too late.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Dear Editor: Without doubt Mayor (un) Worthey showed the true depths of her unworthiness at the Board of Trustee meeting this past Tuesday in Green Mountain Falls. Although she’s never been able to run a meeting properly she continues to “Grandstand” for the truly deluded members of her retinue, “the concerned citizens.” One of the declared leaders of the concerned citizens asked candidate Quinn on his Facebook page if he would be willing to fire two town employees. To Mr. Quinn’s credit he did not respond, although it does beg the question “well, would ya?” By the way the Town has only two full time employees, Chris Frandina and Rob MacArthur. If Mayor (un) Worthey was the leader she pretends to be, if she had an ounce of integrity, or even a passing interest in the concept of honor, wouldn’t that have been the perfect time to be a leader, show some integrity, or exhibit the least bit of honor and diffuse a controversy or defend two high quality, proven human assets? But, no. She claims never to have read the post, as if this bag full of nuts doesn’t hang on every word of vitriol each of them writes. For them, it feeds the fire, makes them somehow legitimate, for some maybe it makes them feel, you know ... SMART! Both Ms. Frandina and Mr. MacArthur are well thought of in their respective areas of endeavor. If you care to check it out call the Colorado Municipal League. Ask for Sam Mamet. I don’t think you can get

the surface was the length of three football fields and about 500 feet wide. The water and the mud had about 1,800-foot fall to reach the American Tunnel level. A 20-ton Plymouth Locomotive parked below the main ore pass was completely flattened. All timber, except for a 200-foot section between “G” and “F” levels, was stripped from the Washington Incline Shaft. All mining tunnels, including the mile-long Terry and the two-mile long American were filled to the top with mud. Although the mine was insured for $900 million, the insurance company refused to pay any damages. After an expensive court battle, the insurance company was ordered to pay, although they actually paid only about $5,500,000 had the breakthrough occurred any time other than Sunday, more than 125 men would have been killed, leaving no survivors,” wrote Bird. “We all had a close call when Lake Emma flooded and caved in the mine,” said Silverton Miner Terry Rhoades in oral histories captured in “Colorado Mining Stories, Hazards, Heroics, Humor” by Car-
any higher on the ladder than him. Just ask him. If you want to go local call any of the Municipal Clerks in the area and ask any of them what they think of Chris. As clerk/treasurer she keeps track of every dime of the town’s money and administers a very efficient office. As for Rob I can say for a fact that he is the first and only “Road Master” in the State of Colorado. As an administrator his skills are impressive. His care for the parks, pool, roads, and other town assets is exceptional. If you want to check that out call anyone involved with maintenance departments in any of the surrounding municipalities or El Paso or Teller counties I could go on about both of them but the Courier doesn’t have the space. On Thursday night a candidates’ forum was held in Green Mountain Falls to which each of the six folks running for office were welcome. Three showed up. Jane Newberry, running for mayor, Margaret Peterson, for trustee and Chris Quinn, for trustee. I have a bias toward Jane and Margaret and believe me they both shined. I think their answers were in all respects informed, to the point, and showed their respect and devotion to Green Mountain Falls. It’s obvious that their passion for GMF runs to the core of their being and I feel the town couldn’t be in better hands. Mr. Quinn was at a distinct disadvantage being the “newbee” but I think he should get points for at least showing up. After listening to his answers I could oline Arlen. “ The engineers had actually tested it under the lake for depth. They figured it was a fault going up there, because there was real bad water coming through. They didn’t realize it was half full of mud,” Rhoades said. “The guys that were driving that stope — I think it was Fred and Harry Castle — they refused to go to work that Friday night because they said that water was pouring out of there. That Sunday it came through. Luckily nobody was underground. There were places, like where I had been working, where the mud wouldn’t have got you, but there was no way you would have been able to make your way out of there, you would have starved to death.” In the same book, Rick Ernst agrees. “When Lake Emma caved in and flooded the mine, that was the beginning of the end, right there. The lake was over the mine. I guess they had us mine up too close to it. It was real lucky it waited until Sunday to cave in. It could have happened any other day of the week. Nobody was underground Sunday. The usual shift was about 125 people. It would have killed everybody,” Ernst said. Oh crap! To say the least ...

tell he wasn’t as well-informed as Jane or Margaret but again his information pool has a few flaws. I’m getting the impression that there might be more than oatmeal between Mr. Quinn’s ears, but you couldn’t say that for the majority of the rest of the “concerned citizens. Mayor (un) Worthey was invited as well but, although she is the self-proclaimed champion of “Transparency and Accountability,” nobody could account for where she might have been and maybe she is so transparent that people are finally beginning to see through her. My guess is that the rest of the candidates (with the exception of Mike Butts - fire meeting) were off somewhere watching You Tube and critiquing the forum and having a big laugh. If you don’t want to take my word for it you can watch the last BoT meeting and the forum. The BoT video will show you how much of an idiot I can be (not without reason). But the forum is infor-
Smith
mative (just like it’s designed to be). If you vote in GMF you should be asking yourself what happens if the “concerned citizens” take over. The choice will come down to: Do I want the road plowed in winter and maintained the rest of the year? Do I want a municipal pool? Do I want the Gazebo and Lake maintained? Am I interested in having the parks and creek beds groomed? Do I want street lights? Is El Paso Sheriff’s Office keeping me safe? These are the things that will be altered egregiously or disappear entirely. Or do I want or need 24/7 police coverage with everything else diminished or eliminated? That’s pretty much your choice. If you live in GMF, get informed and get out there and VOTE. Sincerely, Mac Pitrone GMF trustee Letters continues on Page 12

read a grievance letter during time reserved for the mayor’s report, Worthey pounded the gavel. As the drama ensued, El Paso County deputies remained in the back of the room while town attorney Matt Krob displayed no facial expression at all. Reading from a five-page letter, Barnes talked about the evening of Nov. 2 when she was assaulted while on duty. In the attack Barnes suffered a broken collarbone, lacerated kidney, cervical sprain, concussion, rib contusions and multiple cuts and bruising. The crime has never been solved. As Pitrone was angered over the breach of protocol, Barnes continued reading, airing her grievances against Howard Price, who was the marshal’s trustee at the time, as well as Pitrone and Rob McArthur, public works director. In the background, McArthur repeated several times that the issue of Barnes’ grievances were personnel issue and should be heard in executive session. Eventually, trustee Margaret Peterson made the

Brovetto in spearheading the Main Street program and Creative Arts District, Matthews cautioned that the projects would take time and work to be effective. “Unlike the aquatic center, those initiatives will help bring a lot of people to the downtown, not just from Woodland Park but from those outside our community,” he said. While he supports the idea of an aquatic center, studies show that such centers lose money every year, unlike the two initiatives, which are eligible for grants. “I support an aquatic center but wish there was a way to make it happen,” Matthews said. “I’m glad we have Walmart that we approved quite a few years ago because our sales tax dollars today put us in a stronger position than we would have been otherwise.” To a question of a wish list of new business, Brovetto went for an Italian delicatessen. “In fact, I’m working on this,” he said. “We need something that makes us unique. Another fast-food place? Nah.”
motion to do just that to seek advice from Krob. Worthey and trustee, Tyler Stevens, voted against the session while trustees Ralph LoCascio, Pitrone, Jane Newberry and Peterson carried the vote. At this, Barnes stopped reading her letter and handed a copy to Courier reporter Pat Hill. The second page of the letter refers to a meeting between Price and Barnes, with Hill as the “independent third party.” In the letter, Barnes said she was told Hill was not there in the capacity of a reporter. However, as Barnes allowed the reporter to take her photo for the newspaper story about that meeting, in addition to seeing that the digital recorder was on and notes taken the entire time. At the end of the letter, Barnes wrote that she is resigning her position. “I have placed the safety, health and happiness of the town and its residents as my top priority. However, the recent turmoil and constant volatile government situation has made the environment of my employment with this agency unstable, unhealthy, unsafe and uncomfortable,” she writes. In the age of social media, grievances expressed by Barnes, as well as those of former marshal Tim Bradley have all been exposed on Facebook.
In the days when people buy a variety of products online, Sawyer lamented the fact that revenue is going to Amazon, not Woodland Park. “I would bring an Internet start-up firm up here to make this more of a technology town,” he said. “Driving over here I counted six vacant storefronts. I’d rather bring businesses in that aren’t retail.” Matthews hopes for a restaurant, either existing or new, to add a second-story dining area that offers a view of Pikes Peak. “I think that would be a great asset to our downtown,” he said. Schafer would go for affordable housing. “For people who work in Woodland Park, like police, city staff, teachers and a host of other sectors, unfortunately, can’t live here,” he said. “I’d like to see a foundation that is invested in housing, or a developer who is willing to do a deal where he could be satisfied with a tax credit.” To a question about balancing a budget if the revenues suddenly dried up, each dodged the bullet of what they’d cut. John Thomasson, general manager of Durham School Services, moderated the forum sponsored by the Greater Woodland Park Chamber of Commerce whose president Debbie Miller was the timekeeper.

THAT ROCKS
Fretterd donates second crystal
By Pat Hill
phill@ourcoloradonews.com Coveted by famous museums around the country, two large smoky quartz crystals headline the exhibits at Pikes Peak Historical Society in Florissant. Turning aside offers of hundreds of thousands of dollars for each, Rich Fretterd donated the crystals to the Florissant museum. They are displayed side by side, one larger than the other. “I donated the second one in memory of my brother Vincent who died May 8,” Fretterd said. “We are having a plaque made with a poem to attach to the base.” Fretterd discovered both crystals, which weigh 345 pounds and 439-pounds, in his God Send claim. “These are the largest-known smoky quartz crystals to come out of the United States,” Fretterd said. “I found them six feet apart.” Fretterd and five male friends moved the smaller crystal into the museum March 1 under the direction of Celinda Kaelin, the museum’s president. Both pieces are 1.2 billion years old, from the Pre-Cambrian age. “My brother would love it that the smoky quartz crystal is in Teller County,” Fretterd said. For the first donation, the Cripple Creek & Victor Mining Co. donated $10,000 to cover the moving costs. Fretterd’s long-range goal is to have other collectors view the crystals on display and realize the significance of the geology of the area. “I believe the crystals will be a big draw,” he said. Fretterd will speak about the claim at 2 p.m. May 11 at the Florissant library.
Rich Fretterd brought his muscles, along with the large smoky quartz, to move the piece from the God Send Claim to the Pikes Peak Historical Society museum in Florissant. Photo by Lenore Hotchkiss At right, This 345-pound smoky quartz was discovered by Rich Fretterd in the God Send claim. On March 1, Fretterd and four men moved the crystal to the Pikes Peak Historical Society Museum, where the piece is dedicated to his late brother Vincent “Scruff” Fretterd. Photo by Pat Hill
Thinner winners are named By Mary Nein
For the Courier To start off the year, Woodland Fitness Center featured a contest to determine health and fitness. During the eight-week contest that ended on March 9 more than 311 pounds were lost among 48 contestants. Contrary to popular belief, it is not just about how many pounds were lost. It is the goal at Woodland Fitness to get the emphasis off the scales and onto a healthy-body composition. Pounds lost can be muscle instead of fat if a proper nutrition program, combined with strength training and cardiovascular exercise, is not a part of a new lifestyle. Losing body fat and gaining muscle cannot be properly measured by the scales alone. At the beginning of the eight weeks, all contestants were measured by a Skinfold Caliper to determine what percent of their body was fat and what percent was muscle.The first place prize went to the team that lost the most percent of their body fat. As an example: If a person was measured at 31.90 percent body fat at the start of the contest and was measured at 23.75 percent at the end, then that person lost 25.54
percent of their body fat. The winners: • First place — “Team America” Todd Wolff, Melissa Rutter, Emery Crump & Carrie O’Reilly (Coached by Ann Bunge) with a 21.68 percent loss of fat • Second place — “Cops & Robbers” Alanna Snare, Theresa Rhebb, Brandon Blanchard & Alyssa Bertram (Coached by Ann Bunge) with a 19.64 percent loss of fat • Third place — “Gut Busters” Ann McCann, Jalond Rawson, Lindsey Spillane & Courtney Livingood (Coached by Ann Bunge) with a 17.0575 percent loss of fat • Fourth place — “Thin Mints” Natalie Hibbard, Megan Estes, Sierra McFeeters & Kathy Speight (Coached by Shannan Roskam) with a 14.89 percent loss of fat. The first place grand prize was $1,000 When the teams signed up they were promised nutritional counseling, a workout plan and at least one session per week with their personal trainer. Within the registration rules and guidelines we encourage them to take advantage of hiring their personal trainer for additional sessions if they would like to see quicker results. I found it interesting that the first, second and third place winners did participate
Forty-eight contestants lost a total of 311 pounds. The eight-week contest considered body fat, in addition to weight loss, as part of a healthy-body composition. Courtesy photo in additional training sessions each week. I believe that it is a testimony to the importance of having the expertise of a professional who is fine-tuning workouts and nutrition until optimal results are achieved. More than half of the contestants were not current gym mem-
bers and many of them mentioned that this was their first experience in a gym. It was very encouraging during the eight weeks to hear all of the positive feedback that came from the participants. The term, “life changing,” was echoed throughout the challenge.
Woodland Fitness Center will their doors to the public on May 3 for a fitness fair. Everyone would like to welcome the community to come and have their body fat tested, catch a free workout or sample a class from the 130 classes that are scheduled each month.

Lions Clubs International sponsors the contest to emphasize the importance of world peace to young people all over the world. “The picture depicts people all around the globe working toward peace,” Steel said of her artwork. Scores for the posters were based on originality, artistic merit and portrayal of the contest theme “Our World, Our Future.” Steel was recognized along with 11 other participants at the Lions Club district meeting held in Pueblo on Feb. 22 where she received a certificate acknowledging her artwork, a statue of a brass lion and $100. Steel’s poster had advanced to face stiff competition through a district comprised of approximately one half of the state. In Colorado, the Lions Club has four districts; the district for which Steel’s art was represented is located from Monument down to Trinidad, and from Lake George to the complete Eastern part of Colorado, which includes Colorado Springs and Pueblo. According to a recent Lions Club press release, judges for the district included Woodland Park business leader Jan Cummer, owner of Vintage Vines, a local art gallery, and the Curves gym; Donna Knox, Lake George Charter School art teacher; and Second Vice District Governor Pam Bourland Olachia of the Pikes Peak Lions Club. Although the contest was open to 11, 12 and 13-year-old contestants, Lake George Charter principal Bill Fredenburg had encouraged the school’s entire student body to think about the contest’s theme of world peace and complete their own drawings, which were then displayed throughout the school and in local business establishments throughout the community. Knox said she initiated the competition as a school-wide contest for first through seventh grades, using it as a teaching opportunity to focus on “the exploration of symbolism in visual art.” Knox said students examined “the meanings of both traditional and modern symbols of peace, before creating their own posters.” In addition, Knox said the student artists learned “how artists use a mix of light

In keeping with the contest theme, Kelly used color shading across figures of children standing together on the Earth to symbolize the hope of children around the world for a brighter, more peaceful future,” Knox said. Knox stressed the importance of creating visual art which allows student artists to communicate their thoughts and feelings to the outside world without words. “Given the opportunity to freely express themselves through their art, student artists can educate us all,” said Knox. Pikes Peak Lions Club President Jill Isbell said she was impressed by the expression and creativity of the students. “It is obvious that these young people have strong ideas about what peace means to them. I’m so proud that we were able to provide them with the opportunity to share their visions,” Isbell said.

Teen Dating Violence: The under-acknowledged tragedy By Ashleigh Hollowell Contributing writer
“Love is not supposed to hurt. Love is supposed to be kind, gentle, and supportive,” Domestic Abuse Survivor, Angela Giles Klocke, stated Saturday, March 22, at a Teen Dating Violence Awareness event held at the Ute Pass Cultural Center. Each year, 1.5 million high school students nationwide are physically abused by a dating partner. In the United States, one in three teens are victims at some point of physical, sexual, verbal or emotional abuse from a dating partner, but only 33 percent of teens in a violent relationship tell someone. Violent relationships put teens at higher risk for suicide, eating disorders, substance abuse and risky sexual behaviors. The Teen Dating Violence Awareness event was hosted by the Teller County Victim Advocates, along with representatives from TESSA, an organization from Colorado Springs that empowers victims and focuses on building a community without domestic and sexual violence. Klocke and many others shared their own personal abuse stories as well as red-flags to look for to prevent becoming involved in an abusive relationship in the first place. Signs of an unhealthy relationship include: feeling unsafe with your partner, control-

ling behavior, unfounded jealousy, volatile temper, constant criticisms, giving orders, mood swings, blaming others, isolating the victim from friends and family, physical pushing, punching, kicking, grabbing, damaging personal property and forcing sexual acts. “It isn’t easy to get out of abusive relationships, especially in the teenage years. There is a lot of shame and judgment about being abused and because of the fear of judgment they are less likely to talk about the abuse as a teen. We want our lives to appear happy to others, not broken,” Klocke explained. “They need to know they have permission to share their story. They have permission to be vulnerable and not feel ashamed. The goal is for them to not go into adult relationships without recognizing red-flags.” Angie Trelstad, TESSA Representative and Rural Confidential Victim Advocate, focused on discussing the importance of healthy relationships. Healthy relationships should include: trust, honesty, fair expectations, freedom to spend time with friends and family, sharing in decision making, responsibility for each making your own choices, mutual respect, open communication and feeling supported. “I think society sends a lot of mixed signals to the youth that sometimes deems abuse as ‘not that bad’ or ‘OK’. We teach
children that no means no, but a popular celebrity will come out with a new catchy song that says the exact opposite of that. It is important for teens to be aware of what they are supporting with their money and their time,” Trelstad said. “As adults we need to be consistent in the messages we send to teens. If you don’t agree with something, then don’t buy the song, don’t watch the show, don’t partake in it.” Discussion at the event also focused on possible ways to present the information to teens in an effective and relatable manner as well as effective ways to bring more awareness of dating violence to the attention of community members. Events held in the park and assemblies at local schools could be possibilities in the future for promoting awareness of the subject. The Teller County Victim Advocates have several proclamations that have been sent to City Council to deal specifically with victim rights and awareness and are planning several upcoming events to reach out to the community and spread awareness about teen abuse as well as elderly abuse and human trafficking. “We need to remind our neighbors that although we live in a beautiful place, difficult things still happen. We can all share something with someone else. Bad things continue usually because they are kept secret. The
first step to making progress in leaving abuse is to not feel alone, and you aren’t alone, no one ever is,” encouraged Jan McKamy, Teller County Victim Advocates Coordinator. “It is important for the community to be aware of teen dating violence because the teens are our future and we need to take care of them. If each person became more open and knowledgeable and not so quick to judge teen dating abuse, things could be much better. We believe we’re more effective in reaching others by example. We live our lives in such a way that helps to prove violence doesn’t have to be a part of day to day life for anyone.” In addition to the Teen Dating Abuse Awareness event, the Teller County Victim Advocates are hosting a Teen Violence Awareness writing and art/photography contest. Writing entries can be an essay or short story of up to 1,000 words and must be on the topic of teen violence, teen dating abuse, bullying or assault, etc. Art/photography entries must represent an aspect of awareness of teen violence, teen dating, bullying or assault, etc. The contest is open to current middle and high school students. The winners will be contacted via email or mail by May 15 and will be awarded a gift pack of prizes from local businesses. Winning entries will also be used in upcoming awareness campaigns. Entries can be emailed to

letters to the editor Continued from Page 7
Dear Editor: I’ve worked for the Assessor’s Office for 22 years and I have never heard such blatant lies. Betty is amazing; she not only fights for her employees but also for the people of Teller County. Our office has great employees; we all get along and actually enjoy coming to work now. The small group of past employees that controlled the office, is no longer here because they were not allowed to run the show any longer, but they were the ones that choose to leave. Betty has initiated checks and balances within the office. People are being cross-trained, no one has complete control of any one thing. She has made the website user-friendly and has posted all sales, nothing hidden, for public viewing. All appraisers learned to model last year and most of us were new to the process, except for Violet Watt and Kris Gortmaker. Because of their knowledge and understanding of the modeling process and the steps required, they took the lead.
We worked daily as a group relying on Violet’s guidance to help us create our area models. My area was the Northeast area. During the protest period, we realized some major problems had occurred with my model. Thanks to the experience and many hours put in by Kris, the Northeast area was revalued prior to mailing of tax bills. Since all of us had worked together on the models, it was hard to understand why Violet’s model had all the appropriate adjustments, but mine didn’t. When we started looking at the other models, we realized that some of the other models were not complete with adjustments also. By this time Violet had quit the assessor’s office, just prior to protest, leaving us in a real mess. We got through protest, with three fewer appraisers then we normally would have had, working many 10-14 hour days, with everyone pitching in to help, including our administration office and the Assessor. As you can see, we have a very dedicated staff and an assessor who really cares
about how the people of Teller County are treated. The lies about our office not getting along, along with other lies about unfair values and favoritism to commercial property owners, are totally false. Everyone is treated with the upmost respect and all are treated equally. The state audits us yearly for compliance with requirements, otherwise we fail the audit and the state comes in and revalues everything at the taxpayers’ expense. So please don’t listen to the gossip and lies that are going around, if anyone has any concerns call the office and speak to any of the employees or the assessor, we have nothing to hide. Thank-You, Debbie Martin, Appraiser Dear Editor: When I attended the 2014 Candidate Forum meeting in Green Mountain Falls on March 20, I was very interested in the question related to maintaining the town pool since I was once the Trustee in charge of the pool. Chris Quinn responded first. He said he thought it was expensive, the admission fee was high and maybe he could get in for less money because “my taxes pay for it.” He repeated he was “new in town” and did not know a lot about the pool. Jane Newberry informed everyone that the pool revenue covered the costs and it was the oldest running pool in the State. Margaret Peterson reminded everyone of the historic and social importance of the pool for children and others in the summer. After the Forum I approached Chris Quinn with a question. He was speaking with a resident who wanted to know the taxpayer obligation for building the new town hall. Mr. Quinn ended by saying he did not know. I politely offered to give them the information and told the citizen where the funds came from and that taxpayers had to contribute nothing. Mr. Quinn had walked away to talk to another couple. I waited while these citizens asked him how he decided to live in GMF. He said his family used to come to GMF and he really enjoyed visiting and going to the lake and THE POOL and hiking. Recently he lived in Colorado Springs but liked GMF and moved to town. They asked how he became interested in the town affairs. Mr. Quinn reported he became interested when he got to know his neighbor who is on the Fire District Board. Mr. Quinn is a very pleasant person but why doesn’t he know the facts related to building town hall — an employee could give him this information in less than five mintues. And why didn’t Mr. Quinn tell the Forum of his fond memory of using the pool as a younger person instead acting as if he had no previous experience with it and only stated negative comments? Looking at his somber demeanor while speaking about the pool at the Forum and remembering his excited description of using the pool years before made me think I was seeing two different people! And it is interesting he mentioned serving the town after speaking with a neighbor who is part of a group with a specific agenda for the town. Would Mr. Quinn admit he was recruited by one faction in town to carry out their agenda? Probably not but the foundation for that possibility is evident with his comments on a marshal department, pool and his sudden interest in town affairs.. Years ago candidates for trustee positions were similar to Margaret Peterson. Long-time residents, familiar with the history of the town and open-minded with no agenda other than trying to help Green Mountain Falls function more effectively as a town and remain financially stable. The town needs that type of candidate again and Chris Quinn would have to change to have those qualifications. Gail Gerig Editor’s Note: Mayor Lorrie Worthey has addressed this letter to the citizens of Green Mountain Falls. Dear Editor: I was surprised today when I found out about a letter written by our “Town Boss.” This letter went to the Courier and was first posted in the GMF Just the Facts Group. In this letter our “Town Boss” states that “the current mayor and the Concerned Citizens of Green Mountain Falls appear to be attempting a hostile takeover of your municipality and if successful, all you GMF property owners and residents
are going to see some big changes, and you are not going to like them.” Please know that this statement is absolutely false. There will be no “hostile takeover” of the municipality if I am elected mayor on April 1. The opposite will happen. Here is what I will focus on during the next two years: • I plan on working with a new board to strengthen our municipality through accountability so that employees will refrain from using their position to influence an election • I will focus on Public Safety and work with the new board to restore our Marshal’s Department because I realize this is 2014 and we do have crime in Green Mountain Falls • I will work with the new board to restore the integrity of the Board of Trustees • I will work with the new Board of Trustees as we build our new town hall. I see this as something the entire board and you the public will be engaged in - not just a few trustees and employees • I will lead the Board of Trustees by providing opportunities for goal setting and vision planning for our town • I will focus on fiscal management and budget planning that includes a line-item look at the budget and all accounts our town has • I will work with the board to complete a comprehensive ordinance, policy and procedure review • I will continue promoting citizen involvement within our town and communications with our citizens • I will make sure that our Emergency Operation Plan is up to date and that all trustees know what to do in the event of another disaster • Finally, I will support our business and work with them to bring economic development to our town. These are the things that will happen if I am elected as your mayor. The parks won’t go away, the pool won’t disappear and the lake won’t be filled in. In fact, I believe that if I am elected mayor again, our town will begin to come alive. Just the opposite of what has been written. I appreciate your support so much. Thank you for engaging in your government and voting on April 1. Lorrie Worthey, mayor of Green Mountain Falls Dear Editor: In a earlier letter I endorsed Lorrie Worthey as the best choice for mayor of Green Mountain Falls. Her opponent, Jane Newberry was complicit in “getting rid of” our marshal’s department and violating conflict of interest policy by authoring a ridiculously slanted employment agreement for a town manager that did not represent the best interests of the town and threatened the financial stability of the town with excessive severance payments and other unreasonable benefits. Jane Newberry, is also guilty of “government behind closed doors” with an excessive number of secret executive sessions which locked the citizen taxpayers literally out in the cold to prevent them from participating in Town Government. This letter is to endorse Christopher Quinn, David Cook and Michael Butts for trustee in order to restore some sanity and respect for our town government. These fine honorable, intelligent and courteous residents have stepped forward to represent our citizens with respect and dignity because they recognize that the current situation must not continue. No more shouting, table pounding, and intimidating citizens trying to make input at town board meetings. You voters certainly deserve better! Their trustee opponent, incumbent, Margaret Peterson, waved in the wind but then voted to eliminate the marshal’s department and approved the onerous town manager employment agreement. Returning her to office will return us to more of the same misery. A key issue in this election is whether the Green Mountain Falls should reactivate the marshal’s department. Lorrie Worthey, Chris Quinn, Dave Cook and Michael Butts all agree a GMF marshals department is critical to the safety and security of both our year-round and summer residents. Vote for them! Dick Bratton, former GMF mayor

Herman leading the Panthers on the mound Junior left-hander Dakota Herman has the team’s lone victory By Danny Summers
dsummers@coloradocommunitymedia. com The word “crafty” is often used to describe left-handed pitchers. Dakota Herman is that and much more. The Woodland Park High School junior is sporting a nice .2.55 ERA through 11 innings this season and seems to be on his way to establishing himself as the ace of the staff. “He seems to be able to shut teams down
once guys get on base,” said Woodland Park coach Cliff Richardson. “He is able to work with traffic on the bases. He gets strikeouts when he needs to.” On March 15, Herman tossed six scoreless innings against Canon City, but had a no-decision as Woodland Park lost 4-3 in nine innings. He scattered five hits, while striking out seven and walking three. “His off-speed pitches are well-timed and well-placed,” Richardson said. “It makes his fastball look even faster. It gets right up there and past the batters.” Herman possesses a fastball, curve and change. He used those pitches to earn a victory in the season opener against Fort Morgan. In that game, he allowed four hits in five innings, while striking out seven and
Vahsholtz and Juarros sign with Bethany Woodland Park stars will join other former Panthers at Kansas school By Danny Summers
dsummers@coloradocommunitymedia. com Bethany College in Lindsborg, Kansas, is quickly becoming Woodland Park High School of the midwest. On March 13, two more Panthers signed their letters of intent to play volleyball for the school during a signing ceremony. Carli Vahsholtz and Paloma Juarros inked deals as Bethany coach Nathalea Stephenson looked on. “They are really great athletes,” Stephenson said. “They bring a lot of knowledge about the sport.” Last spring, former Woodland Park middle blocker Elin Saxon signed with the school. “When we find a good program with girls
that are that caliber we are going to go after them,” Stephenson said. “We feel that Carli and Paloma are players that can help us.” Michaela Huntington, a 2013 Woodland Park alum, is on Bethany’s softball team. Vahsholtz enjoyed a stellar career with Woodland Park. A three-year starter at outside hitter, she led the Metro League in kills last season with 218. She also had 125 digs, which ranked second on the Panthers. “When I visited Bethany I felt at home,” said Vahsholtz, who plans on majoring in elementary education. “I’m super comfortable with (coach Stephenson) and the team.” Juarros was also a three-year starter and the quarterback on the court. She dished out 387 assists as a very vocal leader. “(Coach Stephenson) is like a mother figure,” Juarros said with the smile. “She can help us adjust to school and we will learn a lot about volleyball.” Juarros said she would like to go to medical school one day. Vahsholtz and Juarros play club volleyball for Monument-based Colorado Classix.
walking three. Woodland Park has lost three straight since. Last week it also lost to Falcon, 13-2. “We gave up 10 unearned runs,” Richardson said. “We didn’t catch a couple of fly balls and we didn’t make some plays on routine grounders.” Senior right-hander Keegan Harman got the loss. He allowed 10 runs (two earned) on five hits in 2 1/3 innings. The Panthers had just four hits as a team. Senior Cody Hedges tripled and scored, while junior Robert Woods had two hits and scored a run. Nick Grayckowski had the other hit. The Canon City game was a nail biter. The Panthers took a 2-0 lead in the bottom of the sixth, but Canon City tied it in the top
of the seventh. Canon City tallied two more in the top of the ninth for the difference. Harman had a double, single and RBI against Canon City. Karl Loy and Kayden Osborn each had a hit and RBI. The Panthers played Manitou Springs on March 18 in their final game before spring break. When they come back they begin Class 4A Metro League action at defending conference champion Coronado on April 1. “That’s when all the seriousness starts,” Richardson said. “I have faith in these guys that they will be ready for league.” Woods leads all Panthers hitters with a .556 average. Also off to hot starts are Osborn, (.444), Jason Kekich (.375), Herman (.400) and Grayckowski (.357).

Herman resigns as Woodland Park boys’ basketball coach Panthers were a combined 8-38 in two seasons under Joel Herman By Danny Summers
dsummers@coloradocommunitymedia.com Joel Herman has resigned as coach of the Woodland Park High School boys’ basketball team. Herman turned in his letter of resignation to Woodland Park athletic director Michael DeWall on March 18. The announcement comes a month after the Panthers completed a 2-21 season. “It’s more because I want to watch my son (Dakota) play his senior year,” Herman said.
“I think there might be some opportunities for Dakota to play football or baseball in college.” Dakota Herman is a junior. He is a four-sport star who plays soccer, football, basketball and baseball. “If we go on a recruiting trip or go look at a college I want to be able to go and enjoy that experience with my son,” Joel Herman said. Joel Herman was named Woodland Park’s coach in June 2012 after then Woodland Park athletic director Brian Gustafson conducted an extensive search. Herman replaced Gustafson as coach. Gustafson stepped down to pursue other administrative opportunities within the school district. “I’m very thankful that Brian Gustafson gave me the opportunity to follow
him,” Herman said. “I wish my son had the chance to play for him. He’s a very knowledgeable coach.” Herman had never served as the head coach of a varsity basketball program prior to being named to the Woodland Park post. He was working as the Woodland Park Middle School basketball coach at the time of his hire. Herman’s first year was filled with optimism as the team went 4-5 in preseason. But the Panthers fell on rough times during the Class 4A Metro League campaign, winning just 2 of 14 games to finish with a 6-17 overall record. With the graduation of several key seniors, Herman’s team was comprised mostly of underclassmen this past winter. The Panthers were winless during
league play. “We had great kids, but we were just outmanned in our league,” Herman said. DeWall said he planned to have Herman back as coach next season. “He did a good job,” DeWall said. “Obviously, the wins and losses are not where we need to be, but he had a plan to make improvement.” Herman told DeWall that he will continue to hold open gyms after spring break. “I will do what I can to help make the team successful,” Herman said. DeWall said he will open the position in-house and use all other available resources afforded to him. “Fortunately we have time,” DeWall said. “My goal is to have the position filled before May.”

letters to the editor Continued from Page 12
Dear Editor: The following statement is my personal statement and is not made on behalf of the town of Green Mountain Falls, or the board of trustees as a whole. The April 1 municipal election is the most important election for the municipality of Green Mountain Falls since I moved to Green Mountain Falls in 1993. I strongly and unwaveringly endorse Lorrie Worthey for mayor, and Michael Butts, David Cook, and Chris Quinn for the three trustee seats. I endorse Mayor Worthey and trustee candidates Butts, Cook and Quinn because of their commitment to improve Green Mountain Falls. Each of these candidates has asked important and critical questions regarding the budget, policies and past decisions of the current board of trustees. All four of these candidates are concerned about the public safety in our town, accountability to stakeholders, and prudent utilization of our tax dollars. Green Mountain Falls, a wonderful and
unique community, has recently been tarnished by town trustees, who have lead the board to poorly-planned and executed decisions which have negatively impacted the town’s operations, accountability and public safety with little to no regard for citizen concerns or the will of taxpayers and voters. Many involved with the majority decisions have been secretive and operating outside the spirit for transparency of Colorado Sunshine Laws. April 1 is the opportunity for voters of Green Mountain Falls to elect four individuals who will restore government accountability, do the research necessary to make difficult decisions, and conduct themselves in a manner that represents our town in the best light. I have observed Mayor Worthey facing many unprecedented situations, including the Waldo Canyon fire and flooding emergencies, planning for the rebuilding of town hall and significant municipal insurance claims. Mayor Worthey has persistently asked challenging questions and worked to
improve transparency and engage the public in the town’s business. Mayor Worthey has successfully remained calm at meetings while withstanding verbal attacks and has worked hard throughout all of this to further the work of the board and the town. It is very important for you to re-elect Mayor Worthey so that she can lead and reinvigorate the important work of the board of trustees and restore respect, accountability, and transparency to our municipal government. Mayor Worthey’s opponent has aligned herself with and consistently voted with trustees who resist listening and thinking through the unintended consequences of their decisions, including risks to public safety and the town’s financial stability. Additionally, at last Tuesday night’s board of trustees meeting outrageous and disrespectful behavior was exhibited by trustees who are active supporters of the mayor’s opponent. Mayor Worthey will confidently, and ably lead this refreshed board to restore the board’s authority, and help guide us through goal setting, budgeting and critical planning,
all while ensuring efficient and transparent operations, and completing the important town projects currently under way. I know about boards and governance, my opinions and support for these candidates are formed from the thousands of hours I have given as a volunteer to serve on many boards, including 15 years serving the citizens and town of Green Mountain Falls as a planning commissioner, trustee and eight years as mayor. I have served and continue to serve on many nonprofit and local government boards, and I have been chosen by my board peers to represent the boards in key leadership and officer positions. I currently serve and represent the town of Green Mountain Falls as a board member of: Pikes Peak Area Council of Governments, Pikes Peak Rural Transportation Authority, El Paso County’s Community Development Advisory Board and the Pikes Peak Regional Building Commission. Vote for: Worthey, Butts, Cook, Quinn. Respectfully, Tyler S.C. Stevens
