Mountain View Electric to expand substation Renovation needed to provide power to growing community By Lisa Collacott
Contributing writer To keep up with growth in the Tri-Lakes area, Mountain View Electric Association will expand one of their substations. MVEA has plans to put in a third transformer at the Anderson substation on Jackson Creek Parkway, south of Lewis-Palmer High School. “It’s all the growth in the Jackson Creek area,” Dave Waldner, engineering manager of MVEA, said. The current substation has two transformers and sits on one acre, but after the project is completed it will take up twoand-a-half acres. The expansion was approved by the Monument board of trustees at the Jan. 6 meeting. MVEA has contractPOSTAL ADDRESS
ed with the developer of the land and is scheduled to close on the land in the next few weeks. The project is scheduled to begin in 2015. Waldner said the expanded substation will look noticeably different. There will be a 6-foot high decorative wall around the substation and decorative gates at the entrance. There will also be landscaping put in around the substation. “The town wanted it to look different than it does now,” Waldner said, adding it will look much nicer. The expanded substation is a joint project with Tri-State. Waldner said he does not have an exact cost of the project — but it will be in the $5 million dollar range. Darryl Edwards, member services manager, said the project is part of MVEA’s capital project plan and will come out of the maintenance and operations budget. There will be no rate increase to pay for the project.

Lewis-Palmer High School shut down with gun threat Student, 17, charged with felony and misdemeanor By Danny Summers Dsummers@ coloradocommunitymedia.com The 17-year-old Lewis-Palmer High School student who brought a handgun on campus Jan. 29 has been charged with a felony — unlawful carrying a weapon on school grounds — and a misdemeanor charge of possession of a handgun by a juvenile, according to a spokesman with the El Paso County Sheriff’s office, which is
handling the investigation. The teen was taken to the Spring Creek Youth Services Center in Colorado Springs and later released. Officials with the sheriff’s department said they do not believe the student had any intentions of using the gun. Robin Adair, Lewis-Palmer School District 38 public information officer, said the student brought the handgun to school in a backpack. The sheriff’s office confiscated the gun at the school. Lewis-Palmer was placed on a lockdown/shelter-in-place at 9:45 a.m. It was in response to an anonymous report through the SAFE 2 TELL reporting system. The threat was found to be credible and
the student and handgun were secured by the El Paso County Sheriff School Resource Officer without incident. The lockdown was lifted at 12:08 p.m., and the school returned to normal operations. Lewis-Palmer High School students who take afternoon classes only were asked to stay home. “Immediately following the school being placed on lockdown, we notified parents via email, text and website,” LewisPalmer Principal Sandi Brandl said in an email. “All students were safe and accounted for.” Brandl added that the school has security measures in place.

Goodwin helps District 38 conserve energy, save money Building maintenance supervisor zeroed in on school buses By Amanda Bell
Special to The Tribune Monument has blossomed from a Rio Grande railroad stop into a bustling bedroom community for Colorado Springs and Denver. The Lewis-Palmer School District 38 has grown too, from a patchwork of log-cabin schoolhouses to one of Colorado’s top-performing school districts. With nearly 6,000 students, the district has experienced growing pains. In 2008, District Building Maintenance Supervisor Gary Goodwin saw state funding evaporate. Goodwin knew that programmable logic controllers and his 40 years of electrical experience could help keep the dollars — and teachers — in classrooms. Labor was among Lewis-Palmer’s highest costs. Layoffs are often the first wave of cost-cutting. If he could save $50,000, it might save a job. “I did this because I work for the taxpayers,” Goodwin said. “I want people in Monument and the Tri-Lakes area to realize that Lewis-Palmer School District is trying to save money.” Goodwin zeroed in on 70 diesel-powered buses shuttling 67 percent of the student body to nine schools daily. Upon returning to a central bus lot, 25-foot extension cords hitch the electric engine block heater in each bus to receptacles within two 120 V junction boxes. (The engines run from 500 W to 1,000 W.) This daily routine ensured reliable startups for the diesel engines, despite ever-changing weather and average winter temperatures of 12 degrees. Unless physically shut off, each 120 V circuit would needlessly heat engines on holidays, weekends and on snow days. On smaller buses, a 500 W block heater starts warming an engine block after the daily drop-off run at 3 p.m., and will operate until the next day’s 6 a.m. pickup run. When multiplied by 70 buses, the true costs for the fleet were surprising. In 2008, the fleet’s block heating cost was $19,500, and in 2010, $22,000.
PLC programming could prevent charging, especially if the heaters were plugged in on warm days or when the fleet is idled. By automating engine block heating, LewisPalmer’s transportation costs could be cut significantly. Specifically, a PLC-based system could enable heating to run as needed, not year-round. The necessary investment could be recouped in just five years. The entire bus lot is a half-mile long by a quarter-mile wide. Potential suppliers proposed full-fledged industrial SCADA systems, requiring a substantial hardware investment, including HMIs and PCs. One potential solution, the Wago-I/O-System, was compatible with the district’s existing computers, which minimized hardware costs. Given the bus lot’s size, a Bluetooth transceiver I/O module with a one-kilometer line-of-sight range could provide an infrastructure savings. This was important because one junction box is a quarter-mile from the transportation building. Without a wireless solution, the lot would have to be cut up, a $15,000 endeavor. In addition, it’s likely that any asphalt patching used to cover the cabling wouldn’t withstand rapidly changing weather and daily bus traffic. Deft PLC programming and simplicity cut engine block heating costs by nearly 73 percent, from an annual average of $20,000 to just $5,500 for the 2012-13 school year. Similarly, the system’s ROI has fallen to just three years. “We need to implement this all over the world,” Goodwin said. Existing junction boxes were transformed into fullfledged control panels within NEMA 3 enclosures. Each contains a Wago PLC, a Bluetooth transceiver module, a 16-channel digital output module, a terminal block, a power supply and a 20 A relay. Bluetooth links the panels to a supervisory PLC in the district’s transportation office. There, a master PC directs the enclosures’ PLCs to activate/deactivate relays routing to breakers. This energizes each receptacle for engine block heating. With the bulk of the savings coming from eliminating seven to 15 hours of wasted energy to warm 70 engine blocks daily, a simple program was required with provisions for rapidly changing weather. Flexibility was also critical, since 75 percent of the fleet operates daily. A two-

to three-hour heating time was chosen for the blocks. Avoiding simultaneous activation of the heaters would allay inrush current concerns and mitigate demand metering. The programming and Web-based management provide options as temperatures (and school opening times) change. The supervisor can log into the system from any location and activate/monitor activity. Based on Lewis-Palmer’s success, and the potential to help other districts cope with escalating energy costs and dwindling funds, plans are underway to market the diesel engine block heating system to other districts.

Colorado Olympics that never was The Game beginning in Soshi this week, help us to recall a Colorado Olympics that never was. In the early 1970s, the hosting of the games offered the promise showcasing Colorado, the Centennial State in its centennial year. Area high school students competed in essay contests to go to the summer games in Munich in preparation. Resorts and ski areas began gearing up for the onslaught of tourists. Politicians touted the benefits of a global presence in local arenas. “The International Olympic Committee gave the 1976 Winter Olympics to Denver, but in 1972, Colorado voters rejected a $5 million bond issue to finance the under-
taking. Denver immediately withdrew as host and the IOC called on Innsbruck, site of the 1964 Olympics,” according to InfoPlease. “Denver withdraws and the United States Olympic Committee unanimously
names Salt Lake City as the replacement candidate city to host the 1976 Olympics Games. In February of 1973, the IOC chose Innsbruck, Austria, to hosts the 1976 games,” according to Utah Travel & Adventure. In the file for “what might have been,” Coloradans could place a 19-year-old Dorothy Hamill collecting Gold in figure skating in Innsbruck then for the 1976 games, and Bill Koch winning the first-ever crosscountry skiing medal for the United States by taking silver in the 30-kilometer. “The vote was really one for conservation and the environment,” wrote Richard Ellis and Duane Smith in their 1991 book “Colorado: A History in Photographs.”
“Taxpayers wanted their money to go for something other than stimulating growth.” The battle divided the state, pitting then Colorado Governor John Love and Denver Mayor William McNichols against leading opponent Richard Lamm. Lamm used this effort to springboard into the governor’s office where he subsequently served three terms. “The pro-Olympics faction had blundered badly and misjudged the changing attitudes of Coloradans. For the first time in the history of the state, the idea to ‘sell Colorado’ had been dealt a major blow,” according to Ellis and Smith.
Baseball, kangaroos and Ford Frick Now that the football season is over, it’s time to turn our attention to baseball. Yes, I am well aware that basketball, hockey and the Winter Olympics will get the majority of the sports headlines the next few weeks, but I just can’t wait until Major League Baseball’s Opening Day. Believe it or not, the Los Angeles Dodgers and Arizona Diamondbacks open the regular season March 22 in Australia. I wonder if kangaroo will be served in place of hot dogs. Since we will have until November to talk about all of the ins and outs of the baseball season, I figured this would be a great time to delve into a little local history. As many of you know, Commissioner Bud Selig has said this season will be his last. Selig, 80, has served as commissioner since 1992; the first six of those years as an “interim” commissioner. His 22 years in office rank second among all commissioners to the 24-year term of Kenesaw Mountain Landis from 1920 to 1944. Did you know that a former resident of the Pikes Peak region was once Baseball’s commissioner? His name was Ford Frick and he served as commissioner from 1951 to 1965. He maintained a home in the Broadmoor area until his death in 1978. An Indiana farm boy and a graduate of De Pauw University, Ford Christopher Frick came to Southern Colorado in 1915
to play first base on a semipro baseball team in Walsenburg. He moved to Colorado Springs a year later when he took a job as an English teacher at Colorado Springs High School (now Palmer). A year later he taught English at Colorado College. He also moonlighted as a sportswriter and news reporter for The Gazette. Frick worked at The Gazette until 1918 when he left to work for the War Department toward the end of World War I. After the war, he wrote for the Rocky Mountain News in Denver before returning to Colorado Springs, where he became an editorial writer for the Evening Telegraph, which later merged with the Gazette. In 1921, Frick covered the great Pueblo flood, which killed more than 250 people, destroyed more than 600 buildings and left most of the city under water. Associated Press and Denver reporters flew to Pueblo, landing in a field south of the

city. But the field was so soggy the planes couldn’t get back off the ground. The reporters were stranded with no way to file their stories. But Frick flew to Pueblo with a pilot friend and they had the good sense not to land. Frick carried a notepad and camera, and the two circled low over the stricken city and returned home in time for Frick to file his story, scooping the competition by 24 hours. Pueblo’s misfortune was Frick’s big break. A former New York printer living at the Union Printers Home in Colorado Springs noticed Frick’s savvy and recommended the young writer to New York American editor Arthur Brisbane. Frick went to New York, where he became a premier sportswriter, New York Yankees broadcaster and Babe Ruth’s ghostwriter. He took a publicity job with the National League in 1934 and soon was named its president. He held that position from 1934 to 1951 and oversaw the breaking of baseball’s color barrier when Jackie Robinson broke into the major’s with the Brooklyn Dodgers. As commissioners in 1961, Frick earned lasting fame for adding an asterisk to Roger Maris’ record-breaking feat of hitting 61 home runs during a single season. His reasoning was that Maris had 162 games to break a record that Babe Ruth set in 154 games.
Frick was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame by the veteran’s Committee in 1970. Frick never forgot his Colorado Springs roots. He purchased a Broadmoor-area home in 1962 at First Street and Mesa Ave. but kept New York as his main residence until his death on Apr. 8, 1978, at the age of 83. Frick is one of the most influential people in baseball history. During his tenure as president of the National League, Frick thought it was important for baseball’s immortal stars to be honored and have a shrine for fans to come and visit and learn more about the great national pastime. In 1936, Frick, Stephen Clark and Alexander Cleland founded the National Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, N.Y. The first inductees were Ty Cobb, Babe Ruth, Honus Wagner, Christy Mathewson and Walter Johnson. In 1939, a building was erected in Cooperstown opened to the public. The Ford C. Frick Award was created in 1978 and is bestowed annually by the Baseball Hall of Fame to a broadcaster for “major contributions to baseball.” Some of honorees include Jack Buck, Vin Scully and Mel Allen. Winners give a speech at the Hall of Fame during induction weekend, and their names are added to a plaque. And as Paul Harvey once said, “Now you know the rest of the story.”
The art of drawing visitors We think a lot of tourists come here. It may surprise you how many years people have been doing that. In my reading through the old newspapers, I find the number of tourists coming here, even in 1875, is amazing. The railroads did it. Each year they tried to get more tourists to our area than the year before. There were five main railroads bringing people from the east to Colorado, plus other ones who went other places in the west. Each railroad published booklets about Colorado, the west, even Colorado Springs that the tourists used to plan their trips. Hotels did the same thing. I have seen ads for these books in the magazines of the day. They did a pretty good job of making this area look great for visitors. A few were people looking to live in the west, but the majority were tourists. It is difficult to understand how important these booklets were until you think about entertainment in that time. There was no radio or television or movies. Performances were generally live on stage. Reading was the most common form of entertainment, if they could read! If they did not read, they looked at the pictures. In the 1880s, printing pictures was just getting into books. Before that they were only drawings. Picking up a book about Colorado and seeing a real clear picture of Pike’s Peak, or even Denver was the latest thing. The photographers of the day were
trying to out-do each other with pictures of the west. The railroads were buying the majority of their pictures, until the visitors got here. Once they were here, only a few had cameras. At the railroad stations and hotels you could buy pictures in mainly black and white. It would be many years before color would be available. If you could find them, artists were busy painting landscapes for sale to the tourists. After the turn of the century, the postcard was beginning to become popular. A few companies developed color, which generally was done by hand in Germany on the best cards. The common box camera came along around the turn of the century. The photographic art was changing advertising. Actual color photographs did not come until the 1930s. A few movie cameras came along at the same time. Movie theaters and home movies inspired more tourists to come and see the west. Even after World War II, people in the east believed tales of cowboys and Indians from the movies.

Fusing age-old craft dating back to 2000 B.C. Fused and kiln-formed glass are general terms used to describe glass that has been melted, manipulated and shaped in a kiln. It is the oldest form of glass manipulation. Most historians date the beginnings to the Mesopotamians in 2000 B.C. The Egyptians developed the art form further, with many of examples in museums around the world. The Greeks and Romans continued working with glass in kilns until the Romans learned how to manipulate the glass after it came from the kiln or furnace, and the art of glass blowing was created. Fusing was forgotten until the 19th century, when glass craftsmen began to experiment with the age-old craft, but with newer heat sources, glass choices and technology. Fused glass is similar to baking glass. Glass pieces are cut and arranged by hand, then slowly heated in a kiln over a period of several hours. At temperatures between

OBITUARIES Burdick
Penny Burdick
Nov 18, 1946 – Jan 30, 2014
Penny was born Nov. 18, 1946 in Denver, CO growing up in Park Hill where both her mother and father also grew up. She graduated from East Denver High School and attended Colorado State University. Penny met Dennis Burdick at Smiley Junior High School and they married January 14, 1967 being childhood sweethearts. Penny always loved Douglas County and appreciated her great grandmother’s family history of coming to Castle Rock in 1885 from Staffordshire England. When she was a child her grandmother, Evelyn, would tell stories about living in the “Rock” as they drove down to visit relatives and that sparked a passion for the history of the area. Her grandmother played piano for barn dances and her Great Uncle Frank Bakewell was the Castle Rock Station Agent for the Santa Fe Railroad for many years. Penny’s professional life included employment with several title companies throughout her career which spanned thirty seven years in real estate. Penny enjoyed history, children, loved animals, especially horses, and always had some kind of critter needing a home on the ranch. She was involved in many community organizations serving on the board of directors for Praying Hands Ranch, she was a founding member of the
Douglas County Historic Preservation Board, a 4-H leader for Cherry Valley AG and was a superintendent for the Douglas County Fair. In addition, she served as President of Cherry Homemakers Home Extension Club and Larkspur Historical Society. At the time of her death she was still actively involved in researching historical properties, doing enactments for adults and children and nominating properties for the local registry. In 2011, the Douglas County Board of County Commissioners recognized Penny for her contributions in documenting Douglas County history. At 67 years of age, God called Penny to her heavenly home on Thursday Jan. 30, 2014 after fighting a lifelong illness. She is survived by her husband Dennis, son Ben (Theresa), grandson Dillan Burdick, Sister Cindy Haraway (Lou), mother-in-law Edith Burdick, Sister-in-law Diane Ryder in addition to many cousins, nieces and nephews and grand nieces and nephews. Services will be held on Saturday, Feb. 8th at Killin Chapel located in Spring Valley Cemetery, 13944 Spring Valley Road, Larkspur, CO. Viewing at 12:30 services at 1:00 P.M. Donations may be made to Pikes Peak Hospice & Palliative Care Foundation, 2550 Tenderfoot Hill Street, Colorado Springs, CO 80906

RECREATION
1400 and 1500 degrees F, the glass melts and the separate pieces of glass liquefy and fuse together into a single sheet of glass. When the glass has reached the state desired by the artist, the kiln is shut off and annealing begins. Annealing is the slow cooling of the glass to prevent the presence of internal stress, which can lead to bubbles, cracks or fractures. Once the glass has returned to room temperature it can be used as a flat piece of glass and displayed in a stand, or it
can be shape in the kiln in a process called slumping. The glass is suspended over a prepared mold of stainless steel or stoneware and slowly heated. As the glass reaches internal temperatures in the 1200 to 1300 degree F range the glass becomes soft, similar in consistency to taffy. The glass stretches and sags, taking the shape of the mold. When it reaches the shape desired by the artist the kiln is shut off and once again annealing begins. Today’s fusing and kiln forming craftsmen have the luxury of being able to create their pieces in kilns that are electric and have computerized controllers to carefully monitor the temperature and speed of heating and cooling. Today’s artists also have a huge selection of glass, in every form, color and texture, available to them. New technologies in other fields, such as dichroic coatings on glass, have moved into the art glass field and promise to make this century exciting for the con-

VanWormer to give history presentation Staff report Those who have driven into the Town of Monument on Second Street, have passed public art “Ice Harvest” presented by TriLakes Views and designed by Tim Upham and Lisa Cameron. This visual image depicts the historical events of ice harvesting
that occurred on the lakes in the Tri-Lakes region in the late 1800s and early 1900s. The Palmer Divide was a “natural” area for ice production and gathering and the railroads were a major customer of ice to protect perishables in transit and to support passengers both on the train and in the urban areas.

The education services company profiled the Air Force Academy in its book, “The Best Value Colleges,” subtitled “The 150 Best-Buy Colleges and What It Takes to Get In.” The book profiles 75 public and 75 private colleges the Princeton Review designates as “Best Values” based on the company’s surveys of 2,000 colleges and
universities in 2012-13. The selection process analyzed schoolreported information across more than 30 data points covering academics, cost and financial aid as well as data from The Princeton Review’s surveys of students at the schools over the past three academic years.

From Monument to Sochi and the Winter Olympics Figure Skater Brown trains at the Colorado Sports Center By Danny Summers
Dsummers@ coloradocommunitymedia.com When the XXII Winter Olympics open in Sochi, Russia, on Feb. 7, Monument resident Jason Brown will be among those taking part in the opening ceremonies. Brown will represent the United States men’s figure skating team as he continues his unlikely quest to become the best in the world. Brown, who turned 19 last December, is a Chicago native who came to the TriLakes area last year so that he could train at the Colorado Sports Center. “I love the environment,” Brown said. “I love skating in Monument. It feels more like home now that I’ve been here a while. “I can train the same way I did at home. And having access to the (Olympic Training Center) is such a positive. I really am trying to make the most of that resource.” Several high-level skaters train with Brown at the Colorado Sports Center. Brown shocked the skating community in January when he finished second at the U.S. Figure Skating Championships in Boston. Jeremy Abbott won the U.S. title. Interestingly, Abbott is a 2004 graduate of Cheyenne Mountain High School. Abbot’s mother, Allison Scott, is a director of communications at The Broadmoor. “Jason is the nicest kid,” Allison Scott said. “We’ve become friends with the Brown family. As the ‘elder statesman’ Jeremy is mentoring Jason through this process.
“Jason is just so amazed that he’s going. Jason’s really looking forward to learning from Jeremy.” Brown is hoping this is more than just a learning experience. But as Scott notes, Olympic competition is at a different level. “The men’s singles events are going to be tough,” Scott said. “Japan is really strong. Of course there is always Patrick (Chan of Canada). “Jeremy and Patrick train together in Detroit and they know one another’s skating very well. They have also become good friends.” Brown has become an overnight sensation. His electrifying performance at the U.S. Nationals was uploaded to YouTube and within days had more than three million hits. At the U.S. Championships, Brown showed why he has a chance to bring a medal home from Russia. He skates clean and with a lot of enthusiasm but doesn’t take a lot of chances — like cram his program with jumps. He doesn’t have a quadruple jump in his arsenal. The quad, he said, has been seen as a dividing line between skaters in recent years. America’s Evan Lysacek didn’t perform one of the difficult jumps on his way to winning the gold at the 2010 Vancouver Olympics. It has been a whirlwind last month for Brown, who he is a part-time student at the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs, where he is majoring in English and Japanese. Brown’s coach is Kori Ade. The two have been together since he was 5. Ade notes the advantages her skaters have of training at altitude and having access to the Olympic Training Center. “They have a lot of great sports medicine and information,” she said. “And the opportunity to go to the dining hall and eat with elite athletes can’t really be du-

Tri-Lakes community with preventive care services.” The Boldt Co. will serve as the owner/ developer of the outpatient facility and the new shared lobby. Boldt is not only the developer but also the facilitator of the project and has opened up communication with the YMCA and brought both Penrose and the YMCA to the table in order to get the project off the ground. The additions will more than double the size of the Tri-Lakes YMCA complex. The lobby is expected to be staffed by employees from the YMCA and Penrose-St. Francis, and include a concierge desk to help YMCA members and patients find the services they need. Last October, plans for the addition were approved by the Woodmoor Improvement Association. Because the Tri-Lakes YMCA is within the boundaries of Woodmoor, its plans needed to be approved by the Architectural Control Committee and the board. The Tri-Lakes YMCA opened in 2008. It is part of the YMCA of the Pikes Peak Region, which operates five other branches as well as eight recreation centers and swimming pools in the Colorado Springs area.

Rangers win hockey ‘Winter Classic’ Lewis-Palmer wins three games last week to improve to 14-1 By Danny Summers
Dsummers@ coloradocommunitymedia.com The Lewis-Palmer High School hockey team played its version of the “Winter Classic” on Feb. 1 and came out on the winning side of a 5-2 score over Pine Creek. It was Lewis-Palmer’s 13th consecutive
victory as it improved to 14-1 overall, 9-1 in the Peak Conference. The unique game was played at Meadow Wood Ice Rink in the Teller County city of Woodland Park. Game time temperature was about 12 degrees. A steady snow fell throughout the game. Pine Creek led 2-1 at the end of the first period, but the Rangers got three secondperiod goals to take control of the game. They came on William Fraser’s turnaround wrist shot, Taylor Hill’s power-play goal and another from Noah Vanderbeck off a turnover. Ryan Reich scored the Rangers’ final goal in the third period.
Rangers’ senior captain Julian Claudio scored the game’s first goal less than three minutes into the opening stanza. Lewis-Palmer goalkeeper Andrew Karnes got the victory for his club. The game was the brainchild of Pine Creek coach Ken Martel, who made the arrangements with the City of Woodland Park and the Woodland Park Hockey Association. The Rangers also had victories last week over Coronado (13-0 on Jan. 27) and Pueblo County (4-0 on Jan. 29). Against Coronado, six different Rangers’ players scored two goals to lead the offensive outburst.
Scoring two goals apiece were Casey McMullin, DJ Jones, Fraser, Zachary Williams, Claudio and Brayden Yatsu. Christian Perry, Claudio, Williams and Jones each had four points. The Rangers traveled to Pueblo for their Jan. 29 game. McMullin scored twice, while Williams and Dmitri Smith had single goals. Rangers’ backup goalie Marcus Smith improved to 4-0 while making 48 saves. He has not allowed a goal in 204 minutes. Lewis-Palmer’s Jan. 31 game with Cheyenne Mountain was postponed due to weather. No makeup date has been announced.
McKinstry, Borman working together again Former District 38 icons Russ McKinstry and John Borman have teamed up at Championship Basketball Academy By Danny Summers
Dsummers@ coloradocommunitymedia.com Former Lewis-Palmer High School boys’ basketball coach Russ McKinstry is the president of Championship Basketball Academy in Centennial. CBA provides all services relating to the game of basketball, the business of basketball and the building of future champions through basketball. McKinstry left Lewis-Palmer in June after leading the Rangers to back-to-back Class 4A state championships. He was also the school’s athletic director. The long-time coach resigned to accept a position athletic director at Chaparral in Parker. But McKinstry never worked for Chaparral, instead taking a position with the start-up company. According to its web site, CBA specializes in training, developing and teaching players using the most effective and current basketball techniques.
The company also specializes in the development and implementation of leadership programs and basketball education for student athletes and coaches. McKinstry writes an occasional blog for the company’s web site. His main focus is on defense. “Being a defensive stopper is a demanding role, but it is a role that can truly take a team to another level,” McKinstry said. McKinstry is working with his former District 38 boss, John Borman. Earlier this month, Borman started his position as vice president of operations for CBA. Borman stepped down as the District’s superintendent at the end of December. Borman said the organization plans to build athletic facilities that will reach out to underprivileged kids and offer basketball clinics, coaching clinics and sports leagues. Borman also mentioned that a facility with at least six basketball courts is set to break ground near Interstate-25 and Interquest Parkway. McKinstry enjoyed a long and storied career as a basketball coach. He accumulated an overall record of 418-171 in 25 years. During his combined eight-year stint at Lewis-Palmer, the Rangers went to seven state Final Fours, including five consecutive years from 2008 to 2013.
Former Lewis-Palmer High School basketball coach Russ McKinstry, is the president of Championship Basketball Academy, based in Centennial. File photo McKinstry won multiple Coach of the Year honors including being named Coach of the Year for the State of Colorado in 2012 and the State of Kansas in 1987. More than 35 of McKinstry’s former players have gone on to play at the collegiate level and several have advanced on
to play professionally. Currently playing Division I is Josh Scott (University of Colorado), Justin Smith (Idaho State) and Jordan Scott (Idaho). Smith also coached long-time NBA forward Pat Garrity when Garrity attended Lewis-Palmer in the mid 1990s.

Warrior Games coming back to Air Force Academy Staff report U.S. Paralympics, a division of the United States Olympic Committee, announced that the 2014 Warrior Games presented by Deloitte will take place Sept. 28 through Oct. 4 utilizing venues at the Air Force Academy and the U.S. Olympic Training Center. The competition for wounded, injured and ill service members and veterans was created in 2010 by the USOC, in partnership with the Department of Defense and United Service Organizations, to create competitive sports opportunities for in-
jured service members and to enhance awareness about the impact and need to create sustainable physical activity programs for thousands of injured members of the Armed Forces at the community level. The competition has become a springboard for many service members and veterans to continue participating in sports programs in their communities after the event, with many having gone on to compete at the national and international levels. Two-hundred service members and veterans are expected to compete in seven sports (archery, cycling, shooting, sitting
volleyball, swimming, track & field and wheelchair basketball) over six days in 2014. Five teams representing the Army, Marine Corps, Navy, Air Force and Special Operations Command will select their own rosters; each team will be comprised of 40 athletes. To-date the Marine Corps team has won the Commander’s Cup, the award given to the team that earns the highest overall points in competition, for four years running. The 2014 competition will also feature the Ultimate Champion, an individual competition comprised of five events.
“Rehabilitative sports activities like the Warrior Games provide the participating athletes an opportunity to heal and recover together,” said Gen. Charles F. Wald (retired U.S. Air Force), director, Deloitte Services LP and senior advisor to Deloitte’s Department of Defense sector. “Our troops have made great sacrifices in defending our nation. Now as they transition back to civilian life it is our duty and our honor to support them.” All Warrior Games competitions will be free and open to the public.
