Skip the will power — it’s Girl Scout Cookie time Much-anticipated yearly sweets sales run through March 10
The Petitt sisters, Camryn, 10, front, and Reagan 13, both Girl Scouts in Highlands Ranch, expect they will be doing some door-to-door cookie sales together and booth cookie sales with their troops. Girl Scout Cookies went on sale on Feb. 3 and will continue through March 10. COURTESY PHOTOS

From saving for an island vacation to purchasing new uniforms, Girl Scouts have big plans for their cookie sales money. “Girl Scouts is all about being girlled,” said Darby Petitt of Highlands Ranch, a troop leader for nine years who has two daughters in Girl Scouts. “It’s always fun to see how and what they choose their Girl Scout experience to look like.” The Girl Scout Cookies Program helps girls develop five lifelong skills — goal-setting, decision-making, money management, people skills and business ethics. “Girl Scout Cookie time is all about teaching girls lifelong business skills,” said Stephanie Foote, president and CEO of Girl Scouts of Colorado, in a press release. “The proceeds from these girl-led businesses go to fund all the adventures you get to have as a Girl Scout.” Reagan Petitt, 13, has been a Girl Scout for nine years. She enjoys cookie sales because she gets to meet new people, but also because it teaches her self-confidence, to accept the answer no when people don’t want to buy cookies and to set goals for herself. She and her sister Camryn Petitt, 10, who has been a Girl Scout for six years, each have a goal to sell 350 packages. The two expect that they’ll do some door-to-door sales together and booth sales with their individual troops. “I like talking to people, and I like trying to get people to buy the cookies,” Camryn Petitt said. “And I like planning what to do with the money.” For the past few years, 15-year-old Makayla Kinard of Arvada has come close to meeting her goal of 2,000 boxes. “This year,” she said, “I’m going to hit that goal.” Kinard has been a Girl Scout for nine years and will use this year’s cookie money to attend Girl Scout
Camp, as well as use a portion of it to fund her Gold Award project — she hopes to host her inaugural golf tournament, which become an annual event, this summer to benefit people who have Type 1 diabetes.

It started last year when the girls in the troop decided they wanted to get scuba certified, Dains said. They did that, she said, and now they’re saving for the diving trip in the Bahamas in 2020. Cookie sales “is a fun experience for the whole troop because it’s something we can all get involved with,” Dains said. “We’re a team, and our troop can accomplish it together.” Want cookies? Here’s how … Girl Scouts across Colorado will be selling cookies from Feb. 3 to March 10.
Girl Scouts will be going door-todoor, but consumers can also purchase cookies from booths set up in front of major retail and grocery stores. The Cookie Locator, online or mobile app, can help people find local booth sales locations. Sales can also be done online through the Digital Cookie, but to purchase cookies online, you need an invite to shop on a Girl Scout’s personal Digital Cookie website. This year’s selection of cookies is Thin Mints, Samoas, Tagalongs, Trefoils, Do-Si-Dos, Savannah Smiles and a limited quantity of S’mores and Toffee-tastics. All Girl Scout cookies contain zero grams of trans fat per serving, Thin Mints are vegan, Do-Si-Dos and Trefoils have no hydrogenated oils and Toffee-tastics are gluten-free. More

S’mores and Toffee-tastic sell for $5 a package and all other varieties cost $4 a package. Consumers can also purchase a package of cookies to donate to the individual Girl Scouts troops’ hometown hero. Each Girl Scout troop chooses a hometown hero — any local nonprofit organization or uniformed personnel — to honor by donating packages of Girl Scout cookies. The troops choose their hometown hero prior to cookie sales beginning, so to participate, remember to ask about the Hometown Heroes/Gift of Caring program.

Open house to be held for I-70 Kipling Interchange STAFF REPORT
The Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) has been conducting studies and preliminary design work on a potential project to improve safety and operations of the I-70 Kipling Interchange. The project is technically located in Wheat Ridge, but would impact those traveling from I-70 north on Kipling into Arvada or passing through on I-70. CDOT will be hosting an information-
al open house, 5-7 p.m., Feb. 12, to gather public feedback regarding the environmental assessment and the planned I-70/ Kipling Interchange reconstruction. The meeting will be held at the Wheat Ridge Recreation Center, 4005 Kipling St. in Wheat Ridge. CDOT has provided a webpage for information on the project schedule and purpose, along with opportunities for public comment.

Some Home-Selling Advice Is No Longer Valid; Let’s Review the Literature... On January 30th, Realtor.com published an article with the catchy headline, “That’s So 2018! The Most Outdated Home Selling Advice You Should Now Ignore.” I found it interesting to compare the author’s conclusions with my own opinions, many of which I have shared here before. Here is the author’s list of outdated home-selling advice that should be ignored, along with my reaction to what she wrote: 1) Wait for spring to sell your house. I have written numerous times that winter can be the best time to sell a home, and it’s nice to see how other real estate writers have reached the same conclusion, albeit only recently. The writer for realtor.com made the same arguments I’ve been making for years — that there’s less competition for your home at this time of year, yet there are still a lot of active buyers. 2) Price your home high and leave room to negotiate. This, for sure, is not your best strategy in a seller’s market and even less so in a balanced market like we’re beginning to see in many areas. One agent she quoted in her article said it well: “If you’re not priced at the market, or at least very close, you’re not going to get that many people in the door to begin with. Price your property to sell.” 3) Sell your home as is. The writer said this may have been true in the nowfading seller’s market, but argues that today’s millennial buyers in particular want a home that doesn’t need any work done on it. I addressed the topic of what you should and should not do in last
2 New Listings Next Week
Debbi Hysmith has listed a 2bedroom, 2-bath condo at 5585 W. 76th Ave. for $250,000, with showings beginning next week. Meanwhile, Jim Smith has listed a 2-story home at 5055 Gladiola Way for $575,000, which will also go active next week. Both listings will be featured in next week’s ad, and pictures and narrated video tours for both can be found before then at www.GRElistings.com.
week’s column, which you can read online at www.JimSmithColumns.com or www.GoldenREblog.com. 4) Amateur photos of your home are fine. The writer states that your smartphone pictures may have been all you needed during the seller’s market, but that you now need to invest in professional pictures. When it comes to high quality images, Golden Real Estate, throughout the seller’s market, used magazinequality HDR photos on all listings, so this comment doesn’t apply to us. However, the writer also promoted 3D tours of the home such as those using Matterport equipment, but I’m not a fan. At Golden Real Estate, we believe it’s much better to produce a narrated video tour of a property. We’ve been doing narrated video tours for a decade or more and continue to be surprised how few other brokers have adopted the practice. And the Osmo camera we recently purchased makes those videos even more professional-looking. It’s equivalent to using a movie-quality Steadicam! 5) Holding an open house is a must. The writer says open houses only serve the broker and not the seller, but I disagree. You’ll notice that almost every listing we feature in this weekly ad mentions an open house. Since we price our listings to sell, these open houses serve to magnify buyer interest in our listings. (Indeed, the listing I closed last Friday was to a buyer who came to our open house.) Open houses also fit into our strategy of not selling listings in less than 4 days. The idea is to put a listing on the MLS on Wednesday, advertise it on Thursday (with an open house), and to advise agents and buyers who submit early offers that the seller will wait until after the open house to choose the buyer. Using this strategy, prospective buyers typically bid up the price, which is an obvious benefit to our sellers. An example is last week’s sale of my Wheat Ridge listing for $561,000, which sold on that 4-day schedule for $36,000 over its listing price. Holding open houses also fits into our thinking that you never know what will sell a house, so you try everything.
You Can Sell High/Buy Low and Stay in Colorado We Coloradans love where we live, and few of us would ever leave it for another place. Our climate appears to be responding less quickly than elsewhere to global climate change, which is, like it or not, yet another reason people are drawn here from other states. This steady influx of new residents necessarily raises local real estate prices. But there are other beautiful places in Colorado which remain affordable and which are drawing metro area residents. Last fall, a client sold their Arvada home for $385,000 and bought a bigger home on two acres in Cedaredge for only $230,500. Another friend of mine bought a 6-acre parcel with a home and two outbuildings in that same town for $270,000. If you don’t have to be in the metro area and like living in a quiet (and beautiful) rural community on the western slope, that town sounds like a great alternative. Earlier last year, another client sold their Arvada home for $393,000 and bought a comparable home in Goodland, Kansas, for about half that price, using the net proceeds from their Arvada home to make the purchase. Now they own a home free and clear and are very happy. It’s not Colorado, but it’s close! I have a client who sold their Lakewood home for almost $600,000 and are
currently renting. They’re looking at lower-priced homes around the state and are ready to pounce when the right one pops up. Now that our MLS (REcolorado) serves much of Colorado, I set up a search for this client based on price per square foot under $200, and they are considering quite a few properties in nonmetro areas. As more and more out-of-staters find the Denver metro area to be a desirable (and more climate-friendly) alternative to their current home, more and more current residents are looking to leave for greener and more affordable locales. This is a trend that is likely to increase over the coming months and years. For years I have explained to metro area homeowners that they shouldn’t be afraid of high prices if they are buying and selling in the same market. If prices are high, they’ll probably sell high and buy high. If they’re low, they’ll sell low and buy low. (That was my experience in 2012 when I sold a home for less than I had paid for it but also bought my current home for a fraction of what it is worth now). Ideally of course, you’d like to sell in a high market and buy in a low one, something that is certainly possible for those who are willing to relocate. The good news is that you can find that lower market within Colorado.

Peaks to Plains moves forward in Clear Creek Jeffco Open Space expects next segment to open in fall 2020 BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Clear Creek Canyon is already a destination spot for runners, rock climbers, tubers, kayakers, picnickers and anglers. And this list doesn’t event mention the sight-seers and tourists, said Scot Grossman, the Peaks to Plains project manager for Jeffco Open Space. The Peaks to Plains Trail, and specifically the spot where the trail will out of the mouth of Clear Creek Canyon, “is the next step to providing the quintessential Colorado experience,” Grossman said. About 120 people attended an informational meeting on Jan. 30 at the Golden Community Center to learn about the next step to completing the Peaks to Plains Trail. Being called the Mouth of the Canyon Project, this segment consists of 1.75 miles of paved-surface trail to be constructed in Clear Creek Canyon, extending east from Tunnel 1 alongside US Highway 6 and connecting to existing trails in Golden. Along with constructing that segment of trail, the Mouth of the Canyon Project also includes improvements and restoration of about 1.5 miles of the Welch Ditch trail — including .5 miles of its historic wooden flume, which is currently closed to visitors. Improved access points to Clear Creek, two developed trailheads with amenities — restroom facilities and parking lots — and two new bridges are

Through a partnership between Clear Creak County Open Space and Jeffco Open Space, three miles of the Peaks to Plains Trail in Clear Creek Canyon opened in summer 2016. In fall 2017, the final three quarters of that segment of the trail opened, including a new bridge, a trailhead, and a developed recreation area with restroom facilities, a parking lot, fishing platforms, picnic pavilions, a geology garden and a boardwalk. The Mouth of the Canyon Project will be divided into two construction projects, one on the northside of Clear Creek and one on the south side. It is expected that construction will begin on the south side in April and on the north side in September, with a proposed opening in fall, 2020. There should be minimal impacts to river-users during construction, Grossman said. “The Peaks to Plains Trail embodies everything that’s great about living in Colorado,” York said. “It will bring people closer to nature. And that’s why many of us live here.”

RTD partners with Uber for trip planning Denver riders can find transit routes, times in app STAFF REPORT
A partnership announced Jan. 31 between the Regional Transportation District and the mobility platform Uber allows Denver riders to see and consider transit routes presented in the Uber app. Establishing partnerships with providers such as Uber enables the
transit agency to best meet the needs, demands and expectations of a growing population at a time when the industry is in a state of change, Dave Genova, RTD CEO and general manager, said in a news release. “Our customers want their trips to be as seamless as possible, and a collaboration like this one allows them to plan for travel from end to end, including additional first mile and last mile options,” Genova said in the release. “RTD is pleased to work with Uber as we present riders with additional, complementary op-
tions to most efficiently reach their destination.” To access transit information within the app, riders enter a destination and select the “transit” option to see available transit routes, real-time schedules, and walking directions to and from transit stations. “This is Uber’s first in-app integration with public transit, and we’re excited it’s happening in Denver, thanks to our partnership with RTD,” David Reich, Uber’s head of transit, said in the release. “Uber shares many of the same goals as the cities we serve, and
our team is committed to addressing the same challenges: reducing individual car ownership, expanding transportation access with more options and working with transit agencies to innovate.” Trip planning is the first of two notable transit-related features being added to the Uber app. Soon, Denver riders will be able to purchase and use RTD tickets through the app. RTD and Uber will share details about that feature as they are solidified.

Warren Tech program trains next 911 dispatchers The program is in its first year BY SHANNA FORTIER SFORTIER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
A new program at Warren Tech is working to address the need for more emergency dispatchers nationwide. The program, held at the north campus at Arvada West High, teaches students the skills to become a 911 dispatcher once they graduate. “The class is set up to create telecommunications,” said instructor Nanci Tatum. “But I call us telecommunicarers because dispatchers, we are the first of the first responders. We provide phone care. We’re the ones that have to calm callers down, manage the call and get all the information accurately and fast so that the responders can get there fast.” The program has been in the works for several years, first brought to principal Heather Keeton’s attention by former Arvada Chief of Police Don Wick. Through partnerships with and donations from Jefferson County’s emergency dispatch center, Jeffcom 911, and TriTech Software Systems, Warren Tech was able to get the program started for the 2018-19 school year. “Students are working on equipment and software that is industry standard,” Keeton said. “We really wouldn’t have been able to start this program so quickly without their help.” Keeton said the program gives students an opportunity to make good money and make a difference right out of high school. It also allows them to make connections for a future career path. That is the goal of senior Ashlynn Koger, who drives from Evergreen to Arvada to attend the program.
Student Ashlynn Koger, 17, transcribes a 911 call in the emergency dispatcher class at Warren Tech. SHANNA FORTIER Koger has goals of going into law enforcement, but cannot join a police department until she is 21. She hopes that the skills she learns in class will provide her the opportunity to work as a 911 dispatcher until she is old enough to become an officer. The program, which was open to current Warren Tech seniors for the pilot year, has 17 students. Next year, it will open to all seniors in the district. “This is a very difficult career, there’s a lot of graphic nature and it takes a type of maturity” Keeton said. “We just felt it was more age appropriate for seniors simply because of the kinds of things students are hearing and doing.”
The high-stress nature of the job is one reason why emergency dispatch centers are seeing a shortage across the country, said Jeff Streeter, executive director of Jeffcom 911, the dispatching center in Jefferson County. “The turnover has been high,” Streeter said. “We as a country and in Colorado are the beneficiaries of low unemployment. So when you find jobs that don’t carry the stress that this does, people pull away.” Stress management is something instructor Nanci Tatum incorporates into class daily. “Its imperative,” Tatum said of distressing. “Every day at the end of class I want to focus on self-care. Stu-
dents need to know how to take care of themselves regardless of what profession they’re in. The better they take care of themselves, the better they can perform in the field.” After each class, which includes listening to real 911 calls, Tatum’s class distresses with things like aromatherapy, cartoons, comedic videos, tea, coloring, listening to music and dancing. “it builds up resiliency,” Tatum said. “They’re hearing hellacious stuff and I want them to be strong and I don’t want them to get PTSD from any of those calls.” Tatum, who has more than 30 years experience as a 911 dispatcher, screens all calls listened to in class before they are played and students have the option to step out of the classroom if they need to take a break. Tatum said at first, she was worried about creating dispatchers too early. But she finds that students in the program have even more support than those in the field. Student Angelina Armenta, said the program has opened a lot of opportunities for her. “It really changes your perspective as a person,” she said. “You learn to be more compassionate and more open minded.” Students in the program are learning on equipment used throughout the metro area and also sit in on class at Jeffcom. “I’ve met a lot of these kids and they are eyes-wide-open and loving it, excited and eager to learn,” Streeter said. “We fully expect to help them grow the project as time goes on. We’re committed to being a part of it. This program is a benefit not just to Jeffcom, this program benefits all of the metro area.”
Conifer family sues Jeffco Public Schools over handling of anti-Semitism claims BY SHANNA FORTIER SFORTIER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
A former West Jefferson Middle School student and her father are suing Jeffco Public Schools over the
district’s handling of the family’s anti-Semitism claims. The case, initially filed in the U.S. District Court in Denver in December by Isabella Grunspan and her father, Gabriel, alleges that

Isabella was discriminated against and harassed for being Jewish at West Jefferson Middle School in Conifer during 2016 and 2017. The lawsuit says the school district was indifferent toward her claims of anti-Semitism, and then retaliated against her and her father after she spoke out publicly and filed civil rights claims with the U.S. Department of Education. The U.S. Department of Education and the education department’s Office for Civil Rights are also named in the suit. Grunspan’s story became public in January 2017, when she detailed these experiences at a school board meeting, explaining that West Jefferson Middle students have targeted her daily for being Jewish and standing up for other minorities. “I constantly deal with anti-Semitism, with other students saying that Hitler was a genius,” Grunspan told the board in January 2017 at a public meeting.
She added that students would make anti-Semitic and racial slurs “almost daily.” “When I told other students it was not a joke and went to the administration, I was told not to take it seriously and that it was just ‘middle school,’” she said. The family filed a civil rights complaint with the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights in 2016 related to the alleged antiSemitic activity occurring at the school. The Office for Civil Rights’ report, issued in August 2017, concluded that “the anti-Semitic harassment was persistent, pervasive and severe, and thus, that a hostile environment existed at the school,” according to the family’s lawsuit. However, the report stated, “there was insufficient evidence to conclude that the district discriminated as alleged,” the lawsuit said. SEE LAWSUIT, P9

An orchestra worthy of a standing ovation Bell Middle School’s Chamber Orchestra honored at annual conference
ATTEND A BELL ORCHESTRA PERFORMANCE Bell Middle School has three orchestras. The Academy String Orchestra is the sixth-grade orchestra, the String Orchestra is the seventh-grade orchestra and the Bell Chamber Orchestra is the eighth-grade orchestra.
BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Bell Middle School’s Chamber Orchestra rose to the occasion for its big performance at the Colorado Music Educators Association’s (CMEA) annual conference. So much so that the audience applauded them with a standing ovation. “They played with passion,” said Barb Casanova, Bell Middle School’s orchestra teacher. “I loved seeing that.” The conference took place on Jan. 25 at The Broadmoor in Colorado Springs. Bell’s Chamber Orchestra, which consists of 29 eighth-graders and one seventh-grader, was one of two middle school orchestras selected to perform at the event. It was chosen out of 132 orchestras from across the state that submitted applications and recordings for consideration to perform. Sophie Anderson, an eighth
All three will perform a concert at 6 p.m. Feb. 20 at Bell Middle School, 1001 Ulysses St., in Golden. The community is invited to attend the concert. Call the school at 303-982-4280 for more information.

orchestra) got to showcase everything we’ve learned.” Anderson’s sister Isabel, also in eighth grade, who has been playing bass for four years, agreed. “We probably played the best we’ve ever played,” Isa-
bel Anderson said. The pressure and nerves that go along with playing in front of a large crowd probably have something to do with that, said Josiah Branham, an eighth grader and who has been playing
cello for five years. “The pressure helps me get into it and play my best,” Branham said. Much of the audience at CMEA consisted of professional musicians, and one of them was Cameron Law, who composed one of the orchestra’s pieces that they performed. “He was smiling the entire time,” said Annika Waples, an eighth grader who has been playing the violin for nine SEE BELL, P11

Golden Firefighter recognized for statewide efforts of fire safety Stricker is first to receive Fire Marshal of the Year BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Goldenite Jerry Stricker admits that although he’s not good at it, he loves to play golf. But something he is undeniably good at is ensuring that fire safety is available to people across the state. Stricker “is very focused on prevention and education,” said Golden Fire Department’s Chief Alicia Welch. His work at the state level, she added, makes the entire state safer. On Jan. 18, the Fire Marshal’s Association of Colorado (FMAC) honored Stricker as the inaugural recipient of the to-be annual Fire Marshal of the Year award. In Golden, Stricker “has an integral role in each and every new development, from the plan phase through final inspection,” Welch said. But it was because of his efforts “locally and nationally (that) his
Jerry Stricker has been with the Golden Fire Department for 26 ½ years. He has served as its fire marshal since 1996, and deputy chief since 2007. Stricker has been a member of the Fire Marshal’s Association of Colorado (FMAC) since 1993 and was recognized by the association as the first recipient of the to-be annual Fire Marshal of the Year award on Jan. 18. COURTESY OF GOLDEN FIRE DEPARTMENT peers nominated him for Fire Marshal of the Year.” FMAC consists of people
who serve their communities as “fire chiefs, fire inspectors, fire marshals, public fire
safety educators, building inspectors, fire protection engineers, fire protection con-
tractors, and others with an interest in fire and life safety,” states its website. In all, there are about 125150 members, Stricker said, who has been a member since 1993. He served as FMAC’s president in the early 2000s, but since 2006, Stricker began serving on the association’s legislative committee. He became its chair in 2012. In this role, he monitors, tracks and becomes involved with legislative bills that are of interest to FMAC — for example, statewide fire and life safety codes for public schools. “Over the years, Fire Marshal Stricker has acted as a mentor to new fire marshals in the state and regularly offers wise insights to his fellow members in the association,” said Bruce Kral, fire marshal for West Metro Fire Protection District and the president of FMAC. “Stricker’s countless efforts over the years to keep the citizens and firefighters of Golden and the State of Colorado safe and free from the ravages of fire are more than worthy of this recognition.” SEE STRICKER, P9

Why Good Communication is the Key to Your Do you ever feel lost in translation? My youngest daughter is named Eden. She’s eight. A recent concon versation went somesome thing like this… Nelisha Firestone
Me: What are you doing?
Eden: Nothing. Me: Well, it doesn’t look like nothing. Why do you have all this stuff out? Eden: I’m writing my invitations for my birthday party Me: OK, well, why did you say nothing? Eden: I dunno. Why is communicating so difficult? After all, it’s one of the first things we learn to do as infants after crawling, rolling over and eating. It’s a skill we’ve had a lot of time to master, but most of us are
really bad at it. Communication is unavoidable. As a business owner, no matter how large your company is, communication is a crucial factor in its success. A company where good communication is practiced tends to be very productive. For example, good communication tends to lead to:
1
Increased motivation / decreased frustration- When employees find they struggle to communicate with you or co-workers frustration can set in, causing a lack of motivation. Employees are more likely to ask for help or clarification when they fully understand a task at hand. Good communication, over time, creates a pattern of employee confidence and satisfaction with their job.
2
Increased Productivity- Clear communication with your employees enables them to better understand your wants and

In 2007, he took on the additional responsibility of deputy chief. “I have a variety of things I do every day,” Stricker said, adding he enjoys his job because he “gets to have an impact on the community, overall.” Stricker feels honored and humbled to be the first recipient of the Fire Marshal of the Year award, he said, but added that his accomplishments are not his to claim alone. The Golden Fire Department consists of a group of dedicated individuals — a mix of career and volunteer firefighters, Stricker said. “This is a team sport,” he said. “Everybody plays their part.”

New healing and recovery center coming to Lakewood JUUST Living is scheduled to open on Feb. 15
WHAT DOES DRUG USE LOOK LIKE IN COLORADO? According to “Drug Use by State: 2018’s Problem Areas,” a study by WalletHub, Colorado has the third highest percentage of adult drug users, trailing only Alaska and Vermont. The Colorado Consortium for Prescription Drug Prevention says there were 504 fatal overdoses involving opioids in Colorado in 2016. In 2010-2011, Colorado ranked second in the country for self-admitted non-medical use of prescription painkillers among people ages 12-24, according to the organization. Prescription drug overdose deaths are one of the four most serious epidemics facing the country, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

When Candice Fondal was serving in the United States Air Force, she was deployed to Kuwait and Iraq. Somewhere down the line she developed a drinking problem, and it forced her to go to a 14-week outpatient program. She has been sober since 2001, and now she has her eyes set on helping out people who are struggling with what she suffered from — addiction. Fondal has been responsible for community outreach for JUUST Living, a healing and recovery center that is scheduled to open up on Feb. 15 in Lakewood. The center will be able to house 16 people who will all strive to work toward integrating back to society in a two-year program. JUUST Living will be open to addicts, people who are experiencing homelessness and those who are coming out of incarceration, or jail. “We’re the cushion between incarceration and rehab and moving right out to the big, bad world. We’re providing that supportive community that is a transition,” said Kirsten Boyd, fundraising director for JUUST Living.

While people stay at Delancey Street, they receive a high school equivalency degree, and they are trained in three different marketable skills. JUUST Living plans to do something similar by helping people learn skills such as agriculture, culinary and maintenance skills. By the time people leave its program, JUUST Living hopes to help its residents find a stable living situation and a job. “I see it benefiting the community at large and these people who are trying to be sober. If they went through other programs, they wouldn’t develop these skills in order to give back, instead of taking,” said Fondal.

years. “I thought that was awesome because he intended the piece for high schoolers.” Because of her 20 years’ experience teaching music, a lot of the orchestra’s success can be attributed to Casanova, said Michele DeAndrea-Austin, Bell’s principal. “Barb holds students to the highest of expectations without backing down,” DeAndrea-Austin said. She “compassionately inspires them to not just play the notes on the page, but to bring the music alive for the audience.” Casanova’s students agree.
She has high expectations, but they’re all for the orchestra’s best interest, said Teegan Meyers, an eighth grader who has been playing violin for five years. “Coming to orchestra (class) doesn’t feel like school,” Meyers said. “It’s relaxing and fun, and practicing as a whole orchestra makes it even more fun.” Casanova said she’s “extremely proud” of not only her students’ performance at the CMEA conference, but their accomplishments overall, describing them as an “exceptional” and “professional” orchestra. “Whether they pursue a career in music or not, being a part of orchestra enhances their life,” Casanova said. “And it’s not just the skill of playing music, but also the discipline and teamwork that they learn.”
Barb Casanova instructs the school’s Bell Middle School’s Chamber Orchestra during class on Jan. 31. Casanova has 20 years of experience teaching music, specializing in string instruments. Along with teaching Bell’s three orchestras, she teaches at five of Bell’s feeder elementary schools in Golden. Her students describe her as strict but fun, and add that she’s a great teacher.

Lakewood City Council passes new tobacco licensing system ordinance The new ordinance will hit the city on March 2
HOW BIG OF A PROBLEM IS YOUTH TOBACCO USE? Almost one in four Colorado youth under the age of 18 were able to purchase an electronic vapor product, according to a 2017 Healthy Kids Colorado survey.
BY JOSEPH RIOS JRIOS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
At a Jan. 28 meeting, Lakewood City Council unanimously voted in favor of a new tobacco licensing system ordinance. The ordinance, designed to halt youth tobacco use, will require retailers who sell non-cigarette tobacco products to have to pay a licensing application fee — something that is a proven strategy to prevent illegal sales and youth tobacco use, according to a release from Jefferson County Public Health. Lakewood Mayor Adam Paul says structure for fees will be set in the coming weeks at a public meeting. Products like e-cigarettes, chewing tobacco, snus (moist powder tobacco), pipe tobacco, cigars and cigarillos fall under the category of non-cigarette products. The clerk age to sell tobacco products will be raised to 18 under the new ordinance, and non-cigarette tobacco products will be required to be put behind counters in retail stores. According to a recent Behavioral Risk Survey from the Centers for

Where to Turn When Your Wheat Ridge Home Doesn’t Sell Wheat Ridge - If your home has just come off the market and hasn’t sold, don’t be discouraged. The reason your home did not sell may have nothing to do with your home or the market. In reality, your home may have been one of the more desirable properties for sale. So Why Didn’t Your Home Sell? Last year many of the homes listed for sale never sold at all, and many sellers found that there was a tremendous amount a homeowner needed to be educated on to sell their home for top dollar in the shortest time period. Don’t risk making the wrong choices and losing both time and money on your investment. Before you hire a realtor, know

youth vaping. “Together, we can do our part to reverse this alarming trend and help prevent our Lakewood kids from using these products,” Gutwein said in a statement. Rowdan, a manager at Puff N Stuff of Lakewood, 8460 W. Colfax Ave., said she always makes sure to check the IDs of customers who come to the tobacco shop. She said she preferred to not give her last name for this story, because she didn’t feel comfortable with it.
“(The licensing system) is making everyone else pay more, and then the prices (of tobacco products) go up just in general. It’s a domino effect, it effects everything,” said Rowdan. The new tobacco ordinance is set to become effective on March 2. Lakewood will become the 12th community in the state to license tobacco retailers and the largest one to do so. “People who use tobacco products know that it is going to kill them. What I’m worried about is seeing my classmates using these products,” said Lydia Calkins at the Jan. 28 City Council meeting. Calkins is a senior at Lakewood High School. “All the kids around me are smoking, and I think this can help put an end to it.”

Community and police team up to ‘make a difference in someone’s life’
Annual survey of homeless done over a snowy 24 hours
Wheat Ridge Police Department involved with PIT for third year
MORE INFO Denver metro area Point in Time survey reports for previous years are available at Everyonecounts. mdhi.org

In Wheat Ridge, 16 people — from sundown on Jan. 28 to sundown on Jan. 29 — perused the community to conduct an annual Point in Time survey. “It’s important to have an accurate count of what homelessness looks like in our community,” said Sgt. Jamie Watson, “so we can more effectively serve individuals and families experiencing homelessness.” While the Wheat Ridge Police Department has always had some involvement with the survey, Watson said, this is the third year for it to be involved at this level. For the past three years, Watson led the effort to organize volunteers to conduct the survey and hand out sack lunches and socks to the people experiencing homelessness that they encounter. “To me, it’s a great opportunity for our officers and community members to team up and help make a difference in someone’s life,” Watson said. It’s important to be involved with the community, and the Wheat Ridge Police Department offers a lot of volunteer opportunities for its employees, said Amanda Schweda and Jen Clay who both are records management specialists for the Wheat Ridge Police Department. “I like the camaraderie you get from doing these types of volunteer activities with your coworkers,” Clay said. “And any time you can lend a helping hand, it’s for the better good.” Schweda agreed. “Especially working on the police side,” Schweda said. Volunteering “makes things more personable for the community and provides a face for the department. There needs to be more of the positive interaction with the community, and this is

The sandwiches were part of a sack lunch passed out to people experiencing homelessness during the Point in Time survey. CHRISTY STEADMAN a great way to accomplish that.” Seven police department volunteers were trained to conduct the survey and they were paired with an officer on Jan. 28 to conduct the survey that evening. Wheat Ridge police officers typically encounter people experiencing homelessness daily, but it was “tough go trying to find people” on Jan. 28, said Officer Brian Gross, one of the officers participating in the PIT survey. He believed this was partly because of the cold weather that night, and guessed that most had found shelter somewhere other than the streets. However, Gross and his PIT volunteer did encounter two people who accepted the sack lunch and participated in the survey, he said. “We do care about the populations we serve,” Gross said. “This is just the tip of the iceberg of being able to help the
homeless population, rather than just telling them to move along.” Earlier that day, Watson; Judy Maxfield, a Jeffco resident who is retired and has been volunteering with the Wheat Ridge Police Department since 2014; Schweda; and Clay spent part of the afternoon making peanut butter and jelly sandwiches to pack in the sack lunches along with an orange and other snacks. “You’ve gotta give back to your community,” Maxfield said. And “I enjoy working with the people who are experiencing homelessness because you learn a lot. Homelessness is not just about not wanting to work — it’s about surviving an unfortunate event in their life.” SEE MORE ON HOMELESSNESS ON P16

Fair Trade chocolates are perfect gift for Valentine’s Day ALCHEMY
Andrea Doray
I
’m not a particular fan of chocolate overall, although, inexplicably, I am tempted by brownies and toffee. So I won’t be disappointed not to receive any chocolate candy for Valentine’s Day (okay, family?). However, for those of you who will participate in the nearly $2 billion expenditure for an estimated 58 million pounds of Valentine’s chocolate this year, consider purchasing from Fair Trade and socially responsible distributors. The good news is that we can find premium Fair Trade chocolate just up the road at Chocolove in Boulder, which, as the company
notes, has the ideal climate for chocolate with its dry mountain air. (We can also find Chocolove in stores and online.) Fair Trade is a global social initiative to help producers in developing countries achieve better trading conditions. Fair Trade Campaigns, which bills itself as a “powerful grassroots movement,” reports that 70 percent of cocoa is produced by small-holder farmers in West Africa, primarily Cote d’Ivoire and Ghana. Indonesia, Brazil and Ecuador are also major cocoaproducing countries.

Thanks to our community’s caring support, Salvation Army raised $26,459.78. And 90 percent of which will stay in Golden to assist Golden residents in need with rents, utilities, and prescription drugs. Golden’s heart for others was truly evident. Thank you! Lynn Vaseleski, Golden What about the other side Andrea Doray’s piece in the Jan. 24 edition sounds like she’s stumping for office for the Democrat party. She goes on about current or past elected or appointed officials spending hundred of thousands of dollars on personal travel flying on United States Air Force planes. She targets Pence, Price and Pruitt. Damn those Republicans. She conveniently omits naming Democrats that also abused personal travel.

flying home to California each weekend and stated that he had no intention of stopping the flights. Democrat Eric Holder (Attorney General under Obama) took 31 personal vacation trips in Air Force planes and ran up a tab of $697,525.20 over four years, Joe Biden (Vice President under Obama) flew in Air Force II to his niece’s wedding. Joe had a full complement of armored vehicles, Secret Service personnel and pilots for a few hour event, (Syracuse.co, 6-24-14). Doray states that she is willing to contribute to special programs, research, environmental issues, roads and bridges and other ethical governmental programs. Please don’t leave the readers hanging, name a few of those ethical programs. Could they be: late term abortions, higher taxes, supervised injection sites for illegal heroin/ cocaine/ meth users and give away programs, e.g., cell phones, etc. Finally, she writes “there are also even legitimate government expenses that I don’t want my taxes to fund.” What does this even mean? Does this include the United States Military, NASA, Police Departments and Prisons. Let’s not forget Border Security. I know, I took everything out of context. Thomas J. Lofland, Arvada
The organization notes that less than five percent of the world’s cocoa is produced according to Fair Trade standards, which bar child labor – there are an estimated 2.1 million child laborers on cocoa farms – and prohibit certain harmful chemicals. Fair Trade standards also help provide a framework for environmental sustainability by helping farmers invest in the future of their farms and communities.
Rub elbows and ideas with worthy peers
s iron sharpens iron, so a man sharpens another … Proverbs 27 I am working through a really remarkable book right now. Or, to be more precise, I am HITTING working through HOME a very good book right now about a remarkable group of friends who dubbed themselves “The Inklings.” You may have heard of a couple of them: they included Charles Williams, Michael Alcorn Owen Barfield, Warner Lewis, and a couple fellows named J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis. These friends worked together at Oxford for a period in the 1920s and 30s, and met regularly in some form or another for decades after that. They were linguists, and historians, a lawyer, scholars and poets. But, above all else, they were writers, who would meet together to work on ideas, thoughts, and their writing. They would regularly grace each other with early drafts of what they were working on, and sit for hours giving each other feedback — often, brutally honest feedback. And it wasn’t all congenial or like-minded. For a time, Lewis
and Barfield carried on a debate that the others dubbed “The Great War”. Keep in mind that these men had all served in or around World War I, so for them to grant to an intellectual debate the moniker “Great War,” it must have truly been a wild argument. But, through this great friendship, these men produced some of the most interesting and lasting fiction of the 20th century. The works of Williams and Barfield are mostly relegated to the halls of academia, but, of course, “The Chronicles of Narnia” and “The Lord of the Rings” are among the most beloved and well-known works of fantasy the world has ever known. As an aside, can you imagine how extraordinary it would have been to have been present the first time Tolkien — before he was Tolkien — started to read excerpts from “The Hobbit” to C.S. Lewis — before he was C.S. Lewis! I have a handful of historical moments that I would love to go back and be present for. That meeting is now at the top of that list! At any rate, it was through their critiques, and their challenging of each other, and their extraordinary friendships, that

these men pushed each other to become who they became and to create what they did. The giant intellects sharpened and polished the giant works of imaginations of the men in that room. Everybody needs people like that in their lives. I believe that there is truth in the throwaway line from the needlessly violent movie “Man on Fire,” that “every man is an artist in their own way.” Some with food, some with words, some with music, some with their teaching, some with how they perform athletically. To do anything at a high level is to touch on the ability to be creative and to operate on an instinctive level. In other words, to be artistic. But, I also believe it is true that, to ever touch on that level, one needs people around who challenge them, who push them, who disagree with them, and who see things just a little bit differently than they do.

The Fair Trade movement is certainly not without its detractors, but companies such as Chocolove have found that their customers request such ethical sourcing. In fact, Nielson reports that 51 percent of specialty chocolate sales in 2017 came from products categorized as “clean labeled” with all-natural or non-GMO ingredients. Additionally, sales of chocolates that make claims about sustainability rose more than eight percent last year. Beyond Fair Trade, of course, is simple social responsibility. For example, Chocolove endeavors “to see that all people who work in the supply chain of Chocolove are ethically treated, properly compensated and have the opportunity to advance in life…” Other distributors such as Green & Black’s commit to ethical sourcing standards based on International Labour Organisation Conventions and the UN Declaration of Human Rights.

those who power the supply chain. Freight railroads, for example, are critical partners in moving all sorts of Colorado commodities – from consumer products, via intermodal rail, to coal and food products. Rail moves about 150 million tons of freight annually in Colorado and about one-third of all U.S. exports. A report by the Association of American Railroads found that 42 percent of rail carloads and intermodal units and 35 percent of annual rail revenue are directly associated with trade. Without freight rail, American industry and consumers would not have the same participation in the global economy. Just as Colorado businesses and farmers are having a hard time making long-term decisions about their operations, railroads are left in limbo by this shifting demand. If they can’t plan, they can’t efficiently utilize their resources, and that could lead to service disruptions
that would impact all Colorado companies that depend on rail. Rail is an excellent lens through which to view the modern supply chain: connected, efficient and cost-effective. Unpredictable policies and regulations can throw a wrench into this well-oiled machine. The recent announcement that negotiators reached a deal on an updated NAFTA (officially the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement) is a positive step. The flow of goods across North America is good for everyone – for U.S. jobs, consumers and economic growth. Let’s hope that our leaders will continue to move our economy in the right direction, toward financial certainty – to the benefit of Colorado and the country, as a whole.

Survey measures homeless in Arvada Point in Time survey occurs nationwide the last 10 days in January BY SHANNA FORTIER SFORTIER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
The day shelter at The Rising Church in Olde Town Arvada was buzzing the afternoon of Jan. 29 with men and women seeking showers, a meal and a place to shelter from the freezing temperatures. The scene is typical for the church, which provides services for people experiencing homelessness in Arvada. About 50 people a day visit the space. But what was special about that day, was the Point in Time survey. In Jefferson County, 577 people were recorded living in a homeless situation. That’s almost 200 more people than the 2017 count recorded. However, those that work with homeless populations believe that the 2018 count was actually low because of the warm temperatures. This year, the metro area saw below freezing temperatures triggering the Severe Weather Shelter Network to be activated and around 30 single men and women sheltering the night of the count at Arvada Vinyard, one of three host churches for the network in Arvada. “The whole thing seems a lot smoother than previous years,” Stephen Byers, pastor of the The Rising Church, said about the Point in Time survey. “My guess is they will not count all of them, but they will get a good number.” At the day shelter run at the church, Byers sees a lot of new faces each week. But he says it’s not so

SHANNA FORTIER much that the number of people experiencing homelessness is going up, but that they are seeing turnover. “We do see more homeless working and because they are working, they are getting themselves motels on cold nights,” Byers said. “We do see people getting off the streets and we do see people getting some help.” One of those people is Devin Ramsey, 26, who has experiences homelessness off and on for the past six years. “Everyone has a different story,” Ramsey said. “Homelessness isn’t just drugs. It isn’t just drinking. It
isn’t just mental health. It’s literally not having a place. “My own story is a little bit of drinking, a little bit of mental health, a little bit of just not having a lot of responsibility growing up.” Ramsey currently has a job and is staying on someone’s couch. He is working his way toward securing permanent hosing of his own. “It’s very difficult to go from surviving to living,” he said. “I’m very much still in survival mode. I’m in a better place than I was a few years ago. And in a few years, I’m sure I’ll be in a better place than I am now.”
Ramsey said that getting himself out of homelessness is a process, and “not just a snap of your fingers.” “It’s hard work and it’s much harder than people can imagine,” he said. Ramsey said it was important for him to come to The Rising for the count because of the lack of resources available to people experiencing homelessness in Jefferson County. “My experience with homeless resources has been there are a lot of resources for specific groups and people, but I have never fit criteria for those,” Ramsey said. “I don’t think Arvada and Jefferson County has really taken into account what the population really looks like and how little resource there actually are.” For the annual survey, The Rising partnered with the Arvada Library, which is located across the street to provide additional services, food and bus passes to those who participated. “As an institution that is open and available for the public, it is one of the only places you can show up and you don’t have to believe in anything or buy something,” said Jennifer Reading, Arvada Library manager. “Having that freedom to just participate in what is happening in the space makes it the perfect location for a service like this.” Reading said hosting an event during the Point in Time count also allows staff to build relationships with people who are at the library on a regular basis that might not normally engage in conversation. The partnership between The Rising and the library was one of many throughout the county to ensure a more accurate count of people experiencing homelessness.

But it is by telling their stories that we reconnect to the humanity of those who experienced it.

Performances Clarke Reader are at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesdays through Saturdays, 1 p.m. on Wednesdays and 2 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays. Based on Wendy Kesselman’s 1997 adaptation of the 1955 Hollywood script, the show details 13-year-old Anne’s experiences hiding from the Nazis for two years in an attic with her family in occupied Amsterdam. All of which she wrote about in her diary, which is one of the most important documents in human history. “People shouldn’t come expecting it to be a lecture or all about the message. What’s important is that these people could be any of us,” said Larry Cahn, who plays Anne’s father, Otto Frank. “There’s a universality to this story and it’s an honor to play these people. It’s one I want to get exactly right.” The actors and crew did research through books and documentaries and even spoke to a survivor, all to understand the times and people in the story. But all the preparation and rehearsals left out one crucial element — the audience. “The show is an immersive experience that you get to share with other people,” said Emily Paton Davies, who plays Anne’s mother, Edith Frank. “With the stage set up, the audience is right there — you can actually see each other’s reactions to what’s happening. Which helps to foster the positive human connection this show is really about.”

hen was the last time you picked up the phone and called to hear the time and temperature? If you’re a Denver-area old-timer, you might remember dialing 303-8444444 to hear the phone company’s time-and-temp line (though you probably didn’t dial the area code back then). The line is back in service these days, thanks to John Lochridge, a Texas telecom worker. Since 2011, Lochridge has been steadily buying up and reinstating old timeand-temperature lines around the country. He’s up to several hundred numbers, spread among nearly every state. Lochridge’s Denver line gets about a thousand calls a month, he said. “In a world where things are changing a lot, people like having things that stay the same,” Lochridge said by phone from his home in Dal-

Snow no reason to not Bike to Work in winter Denver and Boulder have most riders for Feb. 8 event BY TABATHA STEWART SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA
Whether Feb. 8 is a typical Colorado day full of sunshine or a typical Colorado day full of snow, more than 1,000 Coloradans have committed to riding their bike to work as part of the Seventh Annual International Bike to Work Day. The competition challenges countries from around the world to get the most people to commit to riding their bike to work on Feb. 8, regardless of weather. The website winterbiketoworkday. org tracks each country’s number of commitments, and currently Denver is ranked first, with Boulder coming in second. Varazdin, Hrvatska, in Northern Croatia, is in third place. Much like its fair-weather counterpart, the event encourages commuters to leave their cars parked for one day, using a bicycle to get to work. The annual Bike to Work Day for 2019 is scheduled for June 26. More than 18,000 people in the Denver Metro area registered to participate in 2018. As of Feb. 1, 743 riders from Denver had registered their intention to par-
ticipate in the Feb. 8 ride. In Boulder, 455 had registered. The Denver Regional Council of Governments has teamed up with CDOT to sponsor stations and activities along the Front Range for those who accept the international challenge. “There are stations along the routes where riders can get food, drink, free giveaways,” said Winna MacLaren, public relations specialist for DRCOG. “We have tons of partners throughout the region that are hosting stations. Riders can get hot chocolate and food, and get together with other winter bike warriors.” While some riders in the international challenge will enjoy pleasant, warm commutes, others such as those who live in Colorado, may face ice and snow. MacLaren offered a few tips for the commute. “Dress in layers, and gloves are always good,” said MacLaren. “If you’re a serious biker then snow tires might be a good investment. But if you’re just going for the day, just be careful.” If you’re not comfortable making the entire commute by bicycle, RTD welcomes bikes on all buses and light rail cars, so bikers can ride a smaller part of their commute as part of the commitment. It’s important to register at winterbiketoworkday.org, so the number of riders can be tracked.
A bicycling commuter stops at a downtown Denver breakfast station during the 2018 Winter Bike to Work Day. Communities up and down the Front Range are hosting break stations for riders during the Feb. 8 event, a companion to the annual June Bike to Work Day event. COURTESY PHOTO Much like the June event, local communities host breakfast and break stations along the way. Northglenn is hosting a station from 6:30-9 a.m. at E.B Rains Park, the iPie Pizzeria at 145 Nickel St. in Broomfield is hosting a coffee stop from 7-9 a.m. and Planet Cyclery is hosting a breakfast and maintenance stop from 7-9 a.m. at the 116th Avenue Park and Ride along the
Boulder-Denver Turnpike. CU Boulder will be hosting a bike home station in front of the UMC from 4-6 p.m. DRCOG will be hosting a station with breakfast burritos, hot beverages and maintenance gear at 113 W. Colfax beginning at 7 a.m. For a full list of bike stations visit winterbiketoworkday.org.
‘A Little Night Music’ is a Denver stage delight Stephen Sondheim musical has been favorite for decades BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Set in Sweden at the turn of the century, “A Little Night Music” is perhaps Stephen Sondheim’s bestknown musical, especially for the song, “Send in the Clowns ...” Cherry Creek Theatre has mounted a really delightful production of this partmusical, part-operetta, with a shadow of farce, under imaginative direction by the widely experienced Kelly Van Oosbree. To begin with, the voices are exceptionally fine and blend well in various combinations, with musical direction by Traci Kern. One could just sit back and let the music soak in. But don’t get too relaxed or you’ll lose track of who is playing games with who else — and where?? “A Little Night Music” is based on a film by Ingmar Bergman: “Songs of a Summer Night,” and won seven Tony Awards in its Broadway debut in 1973. Before the lights go down, three musicians (piano, cello, violin) slide in behind the low backdrop and begin to play the score. A small round stage is in front of Pluss Theatre’s rectangular stage space and action flows smoothly
and with very careful blocking.

Grandmother Madame Arnfelt decides to host a summer evening party at her country home and all of the above-mentioned are together. During all this brief summertime season, they singly and in pairs launch into Sondheim’s nifty, difficultto-sing lyrics — all in a waltz pattern, including Desiree’s sad but beautiful “Send in the Clowns.” The whole production is done with tongue firmly in cheek and it’s a

Standley Lake Library and Arvada Fire partner for community knitting challenge The drive runs Feb. 10 to March 10 STAFF REPORT
Jefferson County Standley Lake Library’s Yarn and Needle Arts Group is inviting the community to join in a knitting challenge to assist the Arvada Fire Department by contributing items for those in need. People can participate by making or donating knitted newborn beanies, blankets, stuffed animals, mittens, hats and scarves, and animals, or the supplies to make them. Items can be dropped off at the Standley Lake Library from Feb. 10 to March 10. Arvada Fire will be doing a ceremonial pickup of collected items on Thursday, March 7, during the Yarn and Needle Arts group’s monthly meeting at Standley Lake Library. Desired yarn types include chenille and baby soft. Gentle materials like fleece and flannel are also needed for constructing baby hats. Arvada Fire Battalion Chief Deanna Harrington says there is always a need for knitted materials, particularly during the winter. “As you can imagine, the fire department handles a wide variety
of situations,” Harrington said. “Our rigs always carry a supply of knitted items like hats, blankets and mittens so that we have them at the ready when an emergency arises.” Harrington said that in the past, the department has purchased beanies for babies they have helped deliver or transport to the hospital following a home birth. “The library’s Yarn and Needle Art’s group is so happy to be partnering with the Arvada Fire Department,” said group coordinator Neila Achter. “We look forward to promoting and fulfilling this community need. We appreciate the library for being a vehicle to make it happen and we appreciate the members of the public who join us in this effort.” Standley Lake Library’s Yarn and Needle Arts group began in 2014 and meets on the first Thursday of each month from 5:30-8 p.m.. The informal group is composed of all skill levels and works under the guidance of Achter. Its most recent major community-knitting event was in 2018 when the public joined group members in creating baby knits for Warm Hearts, Warm Babies, an Arvada-based charity. In 2016, it supported the Rocky Mountain Cancer Center in Lakewood by making or collecting over 120 chemo caps.

Partners in this AV demonstration project believe autonomous shuttle services will transform local communities and become an integral part of how communities are designed in the future. The EasyMile shuttle will be programmed to make designated stops along predetermined routes. It runs an average speed of 12-15 mph and can carry up to 12 passengers. The autonomous vehicle demonstration project is approved by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the newlyformed Colorado Autonomous Vehicle Task Force for six months of operations. Data collected on usage and operability will be shared between project partners to improve future deployments and bring autonomous services into wider usage. EasyMile says its shuttle and operating system have been tested and verified over 200,000 miles in 22 counties, and have transported more than 320,000 people with no accidents or injuries. The shuttles have air conditioning, automatic wheelchair ramps, passenger information systems, electric batteries and onboard USB chargers. Passenger feedback on all of these deployments has been extremely positive. More information about the Route 61AV project is at www.rtd-denver. com/61AV.shtml.

Democratic majority pushes Legislature to left Party in power highlights sex education, conversion therapy, Electoral College BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
The blue wave crashed months ago in Colorado’s midterm elections, but the tide is still high at the Capitol, where Democrats wasted no time in taking up liberal causes in the first month of this year’s session. Democrats aim to push against abstinence-only sex education, while requiring that participating students learn about LGBTQ relationships. They’ve also moved to outlaw conversion therapy — the practice of trying to change a person’s sexual orientation — and to stand in solidarity with other Democrat-leaning states in an effort to effectively do away with the Electoral College. That current system gives voters in less populated states more weight in presidential elections than they otherwise would have. Meanwhile, three gun-related bills proposed by Republicans were promptly defeated. With a majority in both houses of the Legislature and control in the governor’s office, Democrats appear to have few hurdles to enacting their agenda. The 2019 regular session — the part of the year when legislators pass bills — began Jan. 4 and will run roughly four months. Here’s what’s caught attention so far. ‘No person should be shamed’ An LGBTQ advocacy group lauded the introduction of a bill to ban conversion therapy for minors, calling it a “dangerous and discredited practice.” “Thank you to Rep. (Dafna) Michaelson Jenet and Rep. (Daneya) Esgar for introducing this bill to protect LGBTQ youth in every corner of our state,” said Daniel Ramos, executive director of LGBTQ advocacy organization One Colorado. “No young person should ever be shamed by a medical or mental health professional into thinking that who they are is wrong and needs to be changed.”
The bill would prohibit licensed physicians and mental health-care providers from engaging in efforts with patients under 18 years old to change their sexual orientation or gender expression, according to the Legislature’s website. Neither party in either chamber appears to have put out a news release on the proposal. House Bill 19-1129 was introduced Jan. 24 and is set to be heard in committee Feb. 13. Sex ed bill not a mandate Among the most discussed bills so far is one to discourage abstinence-only sex education, which heard discussion and public comment on Jan. 30 that turned contentious. “There is no LGBTQ agenda, as some attempted to argue today,” said state Rep. Brianna Titone, D-Arvada, in a news release. “This bill simply creates a discussion about what is safe, comprehensive sexual education.” The bill would not require schools to teach sex education — Colorado doesn’t have a mandate — but if a school does teach it, it must include topics including birth control and pregnancy, sexually transmitted disease prevention, consent, and abstinence, said state House Speaker KC Becker, D-Boulder, on Twitter. Schools could not exclude “relational or sexual experiences” of LGBT individuals, if they did choose to teach sex education, according to the Legislature’s website. The proposal also bars shame-based language, gender norms or gender stereotypes. Current law already requires sex education to be “comprehensive,” but the proposal adds consent and sexual orientation to the required topics,

House Democrats said in the release. The bill also would give $1 million to an existing grant program for teaching sex education, and rural schools and public schools that don’t have resources to offer sex education would be prioritized for the funding, the release said. The Elbert County Republican Party said numerous bills are concerning this session, but “none more profound” than the proposal. “It forbids teachers to endorse ‘religious or sectarian’ views,” the party wrote in a newsletter. “It’s not fair to criticize and prohibit one ideology and then replace it with another ideology.” House Bill 19-1032 moved forward to the House Appropriations Committee after the hearing Jan. 30. Dropping out of college The state Senate passed a bill to have Colorado award its presidential electoral votes to the winner of the national popular vote. Democratic Sen. Mike Foote’s bill would have Colorado join 11 states and the District of Columbia in what’s called the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact. It would effectively replace the Electoral College, in which 270 out of 538 electoral votes are needed to win the presidency. Proponents say it would go into effect once enough states with 270 votes enter the pact. States have electoral votes equal to their number of House representatives — which depend on population — and senators. In presidential elections, generally, the winner of the popular vote in each state earns the electoral votes of those states under the current system. Colorado has nine electoral votes. Compact members, as a group, currently have 172 votes. Several presidents, most recently

Gun bills thrown out House Democrats on a committee have rejected three bills favored by gun-rights activists. One, sponsored by House Minority Leader Patrick Neville, R-Castle Rock, would have allowed concealedcarry permit holders to bring guns on school grounds. Neville argued the measure could better protect students from threats. A bill by GOP Reps. Lori Saine and Stephen Humphrey would have repealed ammunition magazine limits. Lawmakers in 2013 limited magazines to 15 rounds after the 2012 Aurora theater shooting. A bill by GOP Rep. Shane Sandridge would have increased legal protections for business owners and employees who use deadly force against intruders they fear could harm them. Colorado law extends similar protections to residents of a home. The State, Veterans and Military Affairs Committee rejected the bills on party-line votes.

Act quickly on full-day kindergarten, governor urges Legislators asked for $227 million so program can begin this fall BY JAMES ANDERSON ASSOCIATED PRESS

Donald Trump in 2016, were elected with an Electoral College majority despite losing the popular vote. State Senate Republicans, in a news release, said the bill “disenfranchises” Colorado voters and would allow “tyranny” of large metropolitan cities. Foote said in a release that the bill “is about making sure ‘one person, one vote’ becomes the law of the land … no matter where that voter happens to live.” “This really is a victory for those who believe that every vote should be counted equally,” Foote said in the release. The bill passed on party lines Jan. 29 and proceeds to the House.
Gov. Jared Polis urged lawmakers to act quickly on his plan to offer statefunded full-day kindergarten. Polis told the Joint Education Committee his $227 million plan is a foundation of his new administration’s plans to boost the state’s chronically underfunded schools, eliminate inequities among school Polis districts, allow local
districts to invest in teacher pay and hiring and help struggling families. “It’s time to make the state a full partner with our (school) districts,” Polis said Jan. 30. “We simply need to ensure that kindergarten is treated as the critical part of our public education infrastructure that it is.” Colorado currently pays for half-day kindergarten, and it underfunds its public school system by hundreds of millions of dollars each year. Local districts that do offer full-day kindergarten either pay for it from local property taxes, use funding otherwise designed for preschool and other programs, or charge families for it. Polis, who has founded charter schools for disadvantaged students, has asked for $227 million for full-day SEE FULL DAY, P23

Serving Jeffco’s families by providing answers Jeffco’s coroners are professional and dedicated BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
While they do deal with death every day, the job of a deputy coroner actually has a lot to do with the living. “We provide the families with the answers as of why their loved one died,” said Gordon Johnson, the Jefferson County Coroner’s Office’s senior investigator. “I enjoy helping the families who really appreciate what we do.” Johnson The duties of the Jefferson County Coroner’s Office are far-ranging, but its main tasks are to identify the cause and manner of death when a death is not attended by a physician, identify a dead person, determine the next of kinand notify them of the death. They do this 24/7, 365 days a year. The Jeffco coroner’s office does it with a staff of 20 — one elected official; one chief deputy coroner; 10 fulltime deputy coroners, also known as investigators; three parttime investigators; two contracted forensic pathologists who have one assistant; and two front office staff. However, the coroner’s office works closely with law enforcement, and sometimes local anthropologists, forensic dentists, DNA specialists and, on occasion, a forensic sculptor. Often, it’s the coroner’s office that “conducts a person’s last medical evaluation,” said Dan Pruett, the chief deputy coroner. “We take pride in that it’s done properly.” Last year, the Jefferson County

Families would be given the choice to opt in to the program. The governor and education advocates note early childhood education allows disadvantaged children to catch up to their peers early and, in the longer run, reduces high school dropout rates. Polis said he was confident the initial investment will be made permanent. School districts will be able to free up $100 million spent on kindergarten to pay for teachers and infrastructure, he said. State investments in school reserves and having legislative budget writers ensure future surpluses go to those reserves will make it permanent, he said.

Coroner’s Office had about 1,200 death cases that they assumed jurisdiction on, Johnson said. Most of the cases they handle are medical related, versus criminal such as homicide, but the office does take care of both, Johnson said.

who reads it and then determines the next steps, such as deciding if an autopsy need to be performed, for example. The deputy coroners are also the ones who do the death notifications to the family, Johnson said. Often this is done by way of an in-person visit to the family’s home — no matter what time of day or night it is, he added. “As coroner, I am here to advocate and be the voice of the decedent,” said Annette Cannon, who was sworn into office this January. “This team has been wonderful to work with.

hen Teah Selkin, 18, started at Cherry Creek High as a freshman, she only knew one thing about the school — the common stereotype that Cherry Creek High School is a school for rich, white kids. As a Samoan and a first-generation American with a single mother, she didn’t fit the mold. She thought that in order to fit in, she would have to make a fake persona. But by the end of her sophomore year, she had forced herself to get more involved and realized the school in Greenwood Village was anything but homogeneous. That year, she found the Cherry Creek Diversity conference, an event designed for students to strategize on how to create a safe and welcoming learning environment across the state’s high schools and communities. “This conference has helped me realize that in this world, there are voices that will try to tell us that certain people, certain identities don’t

said. “I felt like I could only be Jewish at temple or only Chinese at home.” More than 1,000 teenagers from 105 Colorado high schools and youth organizations throughout the state attended this year’s event, which was hosted by the Cherry Creek School District; organized by Youth Celebrate Diversity, a Denver-based nonprofit organization; and underwritten with a donation by RBC Wealth Management. While most people associate the word “diversity” with ethnicity or race, the conference deals a wide range of topics, including cliques, religion, gender, sexual orientation, physical and mental challenges, multicultural art and music, socioeconomic concerns and teenage social problems. “This unique event provides students with an open forum to discuss the social issues affecting them in their daily lives,” said Caleb Munro, executive director of Youth Celebrate Diversity. “The event fills a gap left by standardized high school education that often avoids controversial topics, leaving teens to figure these issues out on their own. We believe that through communication, collaboration and positive support, school environments can improve so that everyone is able to achieve, academically.” The conference started in 1994 under the leadership of Janet Sammons, now chair of the board of directors for Youth Celebrate Diversity, when 18 schools gathered. Now the conference has grown into the largest diversity event for teenagers in Colorado. Marcus McDavid, assistant principal at Cherry Creek High, was a member of the first diversity council. He addressed students at this year’s conference telling them, “your voice matters — and my hope is that you walk away from today knowing that what you do matters.” Throughout the day, student and adult participants broke out into discussion groups and workshops to address respect and diversity issues in their schools. Among the 42 workshops offered were “Left versus Right: Politics and Diversity,” focusing on providing students with skills and

strategies for respectfully engaging others in political dialogue across difference. Additional breakouts focused on religious diversity; sustaining youth activism; understanding immigrants and immigration; and youth homelessness. Dakota Ridge High senior Jasmine Davis said last year was a hard year for her, but when she came to the conference, it was the first time she ever felt like she was accepted, loved and understood. This year, Davis was part of the student-run planning committee for the event and performed a spoken word piece titled, “In this body.” “I got tired of people telling me that everything was wrong because of my identity — all my identities,” Davis SEE DIVERSITY, P25

Another first for the conference was to have a keynote speaker who is transgender. “It’s a huge thing,” Selkin said. “We thought that there wasn’t a lot of representation in the transgender community especially in our schools.” The keynote speech was delivered by Paula Stone Williams, a transgender pastor and internationally known speaker on gender equity and LGBTQ advocacy. Williams’ recent TED talk had over half a million views in its first 48 hours, and her TEDxMileHigh talk on gender equity has had more than 1.7 million views on YouTube.

Teen guilty in 2017 murder of Kiaya Campbell Aidan Zellmer pleaded guilty, March sentencing set STAFF REPORT
The now 17-year-old accused of killing a 10-year-old Thornton girl in 2017 pleaded guilty on Feb. 1. Aidan Zellmer, 17, pleaded guilty to one count of first-degree murder after deliberation in the death of Kiaya Campbell, the ten-year-old daughter of Zellmer’s mother’s then-boyfriend. All other charges in the murder have been dismissed, and Zellmer is now scheduled for a sentencing hearing at 9 a.m. March 11, according to a press release from District Attorney Dave Young’s office on Feb. 1. Campbell disappeared June 7, 2017 while walking to a Thornton shopping area near 136th Avenue and Colorado Boulevard with Zellmer, who was then 15-years-old. Police said they were told Campbell and Zellmer had left his mother’s house near 124th and Forest Drive before 9 p.m. June 7 but were separated during a rainstorm at about the 12900 block of Colorado
Boulevard. Police began searching for the girl the next morning, stopping traffic in and out of the father’s neighborhood, searching cars and concentrating on canals, ditches and lakes in the area. Police issued an Amber Alert, followed by a call for volunteers to participate in a walking search of the area, centered around Skyview Elementary School. Volunteers began gathering but police later called off the search, saying a body had been found June 8 near 128th and Jasmine Court — roughly two miles east of where Campbell was last seen and about a mile from her father’s Thornton home, according to police. The Adams County Coroner confirmed it was Campbell. The coroner declared the death “other than accidental” and police arrested the suspect just before midnight June 10, 2017 and took him to the Adams County Juvenile Detention Facility. Roughly 500 volunteers showed June 8 to help find Campbell before police found the child’s body and called off the search. Another 350 people came to that spot, lighting candles and praying for Campbell and her family two nights later.

Wheat Ridge boys closing in on first league title since 2007 Farmer Fab Five striking the right chord BY DENNIS PLEUSS JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS
LITTLETON — The five starters for Wheat Ridge’s boys basketball team has earned a nickname. How does — Farmers Fab Five — sound? Seniors Julian Claussen, Blair McVicker, Zeke Van Tuyl, along with juniors Dominic Bronk and Alex Morales have brought the right mix of talent this season. Nearly all five are averaging double-digit points and have the Farmers in position to win their first conference title in 12 years. “They are just so unselfish, sometimes to our demise. They will overpass trying to get someone else the shot,” Wheat Ridge coach Tommy Dowd said of the Farmers Fab Five. “They just play well together and it’s a nice blend of kids. They like to play and get after it.” Wheat Ridge’s 76-49 road victory Feb. 2 against Littleton pushed the Farmers’ winning streak to six games and extended their lead in the Class 4A Jeffco League to two

The Demons (10-9, 6-2 in league) lost to Evergreen on Saturday, giving the Farmers (16-3, 8-0) a bit
of a cushion with four conference games remaining. Despite having a little more margin of error, Wheat Ridge would love to complete a 12-0 league record. “We should run it,” said Bronk of the final conference stretch. “To win a league title for the first time in 11 years would be fun.” Wheat Ridge — No. 10 in the Class 4A boys basketball CHSAANow.com rankings — claimed its last conference crown back in 2007, winning the Jeffco 11 League when the Farmers were in the 5A classification. “We’ll just use the old adage ‘one game at a time,’” said Dowd, who has headed the Farmers’ basketball program of more than two decades. “We know what lies ahead. We aren’t afraid to talk about it or say it. We are trying to make it fun, put it out there and go get it.” The Farmers got the road victory Saturday afternoon thanks to a dominating effort in the third quarter. Wheat Ridge led by a dozen points at halftime, but really got some separation scoring 28 points in the third quarter. “We wanted to turn it up on defense and turn that into offense, SEE FARMERS, P31
nybody who needs to know how to handle frustration should talk with Valor Christian sophomore Kindyll Wetta. The 5-foot-9 point guard had to overcome adversity last season and has been frustrated again this season. I recently resumed bowling af- OVERTIME ter three decades and get aggravated each time I have a pocket hit and stick a 10-pin. However, that is nothing compared to the frustrations that Jim Benton Wetta has faced. Her freshman season was curtailed on Jan. 9, 2018 when she suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament and meniscus on her left knee. Then after an impressive comeback this season, she tore the ACL on her right knee on December 19, 2018 less than a year after the first injury. Wetta, who has committed to play basketball at the University of Colorado where her mother Val (Johnson) Wetta played for two seasons, has once again seen her role change this season from being a standout player to leading cheers on the bench. “It’s definitely hard watching all your teammates play without you and you can’t even run,” she said. “It was a lot harder the first time that it happened. This time around it is a lot easier because I’ve been through it. I’ve got used to cheering on the team. “I know ACL tears are more common for girls than guys. My dad (Rob) had an ACL tear and my mom tore both of hers. I don’t know if it necessarily is passed down to have weak knees in my genes or whatever. I had never even thought about it before my first one.” Support from family and friends is helping Wetta’s recoveries. “There were so many times when I would just recline and ‘why did this happen to me,’” she admitted. “When I’m going through this there are times when it doesn’t seem like I’m going through it and I’m going to wake up. “My dad sends me a whole bunch of quotes on Twitter and they are motivational quotes. He’s a huge part of how I get through this. He constantly reminds me of what I’m working towards, my goals and everything I want. SEE BENTON, P32

No. 1 Pomona putting the pieces together BY DENNIS PLEUSS JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS
ARVADA — Claiming the Class 5A Jeffco League wrestling title has been a regular occurrence for Pomona over the past 15 years. The Panthers won nine straight conference crowns from 2005-2013. Pomona wrapped up its fourth league title Jan. 31 at Arvada West High School. The Panthers defeated rival A-West 60-22 to flex their dominance in 5A Jeffco. “You always want to win this dual because you never want to lose to your rival,” said Pomona freshman Roman Cruz, who pinned Arvada West’s Anthony Stack in the third period to take the victory at 160 pounds. “It’s my first year in high school, but I’m pretty excited from watching these teams wrestle since I was six.” A-West actually prevented Pomona for even a longer league title streak. The Wildcats took back-to-back conference crowns in 2014 and 2015. Pomona reeled off six straight wins to start the dual against A-West with Daniel Cardenas (126), Kenny Perez (132), Brandon Taylor (138), Gage Bernall (152) and Cruz (160) all picking up victories by fall or technical fall. Senior Theorius Robison (145) took a win by forfeit with the Wildcats not having a wrestler at his weight class. Robison has dealt with injuries on the football field and wrestling mat this season. He is attempting to enter the select group of becoming a four-time individual state champ. Only 21 Colorado wrestlers has accomplished that feat and he would becoming the first Pomona wrestler to do it. The Panthers have been No. 1 in Tim Yount’s On the Mat rankings all season with some solid returning talent and a handful of promising freshmen. However, injuries has prevented Pomona from being a full-strength. “We are doing good as a team, but we are still missing some pieces,” Cruz said. A new piece for the Panthers this season was featured in the closest match of the night against A-West. Freshman Elijah Olguin faced AWest senior Mitchell Romero in the 106-pound match. Olguin is ranked No. 2 and Romero came in No. 3. “It was a good match,” Olguin said after his 6-0 victory. “I did start off a little slow. I just have to work off the whistle quicker, but for the most part I felt good. There was high energy.” Olguin was consistent scoring two

The Panthers took a 60-22 victory to wrap up a fourth straight 5A Jeffco League title.. points in each period. It was first meeting of the season between Olguin and Romero, who just missed placing at state last season. “I just go through the same mindset as another other match,” Olguin said of facing another highly ranked wrestler. “You just have to stay composed. For me, I just stay focused on my technique and keeping my moves tight.” A-West did take four individual wins during its senior night. Mike Kacay (170), Elijah Olson (195) and Justin Lepke (285) got victories at the heavier weights. Junior Dylan Kruse (113) got an impressive 13-1 victory over Pomona’s Jacob Judd. “Going in I always have the mindset that I can beat anybody. I can’t be scare of anybody,” said Kruse, who is

share the ball on the (fast) break and get some buckets,” McVicker said of the third quarter. “We have a lot of guys who can score so its tough to cover once we all get going.” Van Tuyl — Wheat Ridge’s 6-foot10 big man — scored six points in the paint in the opening two minutes of the quarter. Bronk and McVicker combined for 17 points in the third quarter. Claussen finished it off in fashion with a 3-pointer in the closing seconds to put the Farmers up 60-36 heading to the final quarter. “We are a great passing team,” said Bronk, who finished with a game-high 18 points. “We get the ball to everybody.” McVicker (16 points), Van Tuyl (11 points) and Morales (11 points) all finished in double digits. Morales poured in nine points in the first quarter hitting a trio of 3-pointer in the same corner in front of Littleton’s bench. “At least two or three guys really going each night for us. We just have that type of team,” said McVicker, Wheat Ridge’s point guard. “I just like to find people and get them the ball where they like to score.” Wheat Ridge wraps up its string of six straight road games next week. The Farmers face Standley Lake (Feb. 6) and D’Evelyn (Feb. 8) before finally returning to The Barn to finish the regular season against Evergreen (Feb. 12) and Golden (Feb. 14). All games are scheduled for 7 p.m. starts. “It’s a good test,” Dowd said of the 6-game string of road games. “I’ve told them in the playoffs you could play them all on the road. We are well-tested and played some good teams on the road.” Dennis Pleuss is a communications specialist for Jeffco Public Schools with a focus on athletics and activities.

“Instead of something that sets me back, it is going to be something that helps me get stronger,” Wetta continued. “I can work on my arm muscles, my touch, I can work on my shooting. He turns it into a very positive thing. That really helps.” Wetta played 12 games as a freshman before her first knee injury and was averaging 13.4 points, 5.0 assists and 6.1 rebounds. “I was closing out on a girl when I jumped and it popped,” recalled Wetta. “You could hear it and it hurt really bad.” She was averaging 18.6 points, 4.1 assists and 3.7 rebounds in her comeback sophomore season, which ended after seven games in the first game of the Tarkanian Classic in Las Vegas. “This time all I did was step and it twisted wrong,” she said. “I knew right away. As soon as I went down I was thinking this can’t happen to me again. I’m not even a year out. This is absolutely crazy. I was devastated. I was crying.” So Wetta is again going through the stages of rehabilitation. “We were talking to the physical therapist and surgeon afterwards and both times I tore I had ankle braces on,” she said. “The second time I had my ankle taped and it almost restricted my leg from going when it needed to go” “The rehab is hard, it is real hard.

Kruse comes into the final few weeks before regionals (Feb. 15-16) and state (Feb. 21-23) with confidence after placing sixth at 113 pounds down at Pepsi Center. He also knows what needs to be done to make it higher on the podium. “There is definitely a little more work I can get done,” Kruse said. “I
This time I’m definitely not in any rush. Last time I was very eager to get back on the court. This time I’m going to let it take as long as it needs and make sure it is healed. “I’m starting to walk and walk up stairs now. They said straight running is fine, cutting is what they don’t want. I just started biking. My last recovery was eight and half months. This one might be a little bit longer because we want to make sure everything is balanced.” Maybe there is such a thing as the so-called sophomore jinx, but Wetta is ready to face the challenge of another comeback in the 2019-20 season. “The first time I was never worried about my knee at all,” said Wetta. “I never had any doubts about it, I knew it was strong. I never thought it was going to happen again. I thought if it did happen again, it was going to be to my left knee. “I think there will definitely be a little bit more of a hesitation coming back this time. It’s definitely mental. Can I tear it again? It just takes a while for that to kind of go away.” So if Wetta needs another positive quote and hopefully one she has not seen, this one is from Bo Bennett. “Frustration, although quite painful at times, is very positive and essential part of success.” Jim Benton is a sports writer for Colorado Community Media. He has been covering sports in the Denver area since 1968. He can be reached at jbenton@ coloradocommunitymedia.com or at 303-566-4083. need to get my stamina where I need it to be. I need to be out here running every day.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Some unsettling facts about a past situation could come to light. And while you’d love to deal with it immediately, it’s best to get more information to support your case. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) A straightforward approach to a baffling situation is best. Don’t allow yourself to be drawn into an already messy mass of tangles and lies. Deal with it and move on. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Don’t be discouraged or deterred by a colleague’s negative opinion about your ideas. It could actually prove to be helpful when you get around to finalizing your plan. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Ignore that sudden attack of “modesty,” and step up to claim the credit you’ve so rightly earned. Remember: A lot of people are proud of you and want to share in your achievement. LEO (July 23 to August 22) A financial “deal” that seems to be just right for you Leos and Leonas could be grounded more in gossamer than substance. Get an expert’s advice to help you check it out. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Don’t ignore that suddenly cool or even rude attitude from someone close to you. Asking for an explanation could reveal a misunderstanding you were completely unaware of.

LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Unless you have sound knowledge, and not just an opinion, it’s best not to step into a family dispute involving a legal matter, regardless of whom you support. Leave that to the lawyers. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) An awkward situation presents the usually socially savvy Scorpian with a problem. But a courteous and considerate approach soon helps clear the air and ease communication. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) A calmer, less-tense atmosphere prevails through much of the week, allowing you to restore your energy levels before tackling a new challenge coming up by week’s end. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Your approach to helping with a friend or family member’s problem could boomerang unless you take time to explain your method and how and why it (usually!) works. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Someone who gave you a lot of grief might ask for a chance for the two of you to make a fresh start. You need to weigh the sincerity of the request carefully before giving your answer. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Too much fantasizing about an upcoming decision could affect your judgment. Better to make your choices based on what you know now rather than on what you might learn later.

‘Tis the season for angry badgers, beer and love
I AVENUE FLASHES
John Akal
t’s February and we have already seen that the famous groundhog, Punxsutawney Phil, was dragged out of his den by some guy in a top hat and didn’t see his shadow this year. That’s supposed to mean an early Spring. Of course the cuddly creature lives in Pennsylvania so they may be seeing something the rest of us will be missing. But maybe not. It turns out that poor Phil has only been correct about 40 percent of the time. We don’t actually have groundhogs or woodchucks in Colorado. We have their close cousins, marmots. It also turns out that Groundhog Day comes from a German tradition but they don’t have groundhogs either. They actually use a badger as the forecasting animal. I’m guessing that they probably switched it to a groundhog here in America once they figured out that they were easier to drag out of a den that an angry badger with sharper teeth and really nasty claws. But on the flip side, maybe the badgers were a little more accurate in their weather forecasts. So that brings us to the upcoming February weekend and there are some fun things happening that you might enjoy. First off we once again have to differentiate between a bike and a bike for this one. Today I’m talking about bicycles, not a motorcycles. Pedal Pushers Cyclery is asking everyone two questions. Do you like bikes? Do you like beer? If
you answered yes to both of those questions then you are going to love their inaugural Community Beer Night, this Saturday, Feb. 9. They are holding it at their shop which is located at 710 Golden Ridge Road here in Golden. The fun starts at 6 p.m. I guess it goes until they run out of beer. Basically it’s a party to celebrate their new beer tap/fridge remodel while enjoying the company of fellow craft lovers. Just bring something to share and chat about. By “something” I mean interesting crawlers, home brew, bombers, rare and limited release stuff. You know what I mean. The kind of thing that beer fans get all excited about. Some of the neighborhood brewers from Green Mountain Brewery, Coda Brewing, New Terrain Brewing, and Alpine Dog Brewing will be there with a lot of fun stuff of their own. If you are looking for something to do on Feb. 10, then the Jefferson Symphony Orchestra’s Winter Concert may be just the right thing. It’s going to be held at 4 p.m. at the Wheat Ridge United Methodist Church, located at 7530 W. 38th Avenue in Wheat Ridge. The program will be featuring a terrific guest artist, Masakazu Ito on Guitar and he will be performing one of the greatest classical guitar compositions ever written. Concierto de Aranjuez by Rodrigo. It’s a beautiful piece of music. They will also be performing Verdi’s La Forza de Destino Overture by Verdi and
the Brahms Symphony No. 3. The concert will be conducted by Dr. William Morse. Tickets run Adults $25, Seniors $20 with discounts for students and children. You can order them at www.jeffersonsymphonyorchestra.org or by calling the box office at (303) 278-4237. Meanwhile, back to the beer … and Valentine’s Day! Yup, that’s right. I’ve got another beer related event and it’s happening on Feb. 14. This one is the 3rd Annual Valentine’s Day Truffle and Beer Pairing at the New Terrain Brewing Company, 16401 Table Mountain Parkway here in Golden. They will be joining up with the Master Chocolatiers from Pierce, Love & Chocolate to match up five of their favorite beers with delicious chocolate truffles. You need to get tickets in advance for this one, so go to www.newterrainbrewing021419.brownpapertickets.com. They run $13 for just the truffles and $25 to pair them with the beers. Where else are you going to find a Shadowland Russian Imperial Stout paired with a Stranahan’s Whiskey Truffle? I know … Now you want to be there, right?
