November Thankful

November 2022 PUBLISHER

Joan Dameron | joan.dameron@citylifestyle.com Jeni Fleck | jeni.fleck@citylifestyle.com EDITOR IAL COOR DINATOR

In this season of giving thanks, we often find ourselves reflecting on the many blessings in our lives. The true spirit of Thanksgiving encourages the conscious expression of gratitude. Its focus is spending time with those that you love and encourages giving back in a meaningful way. While ambition, competition and slaying goals can be very healthy, forgetting to place importance on being present, enjoying the ride and appreciating those around us that have helped us along in our journey, can leave us missing out on what truly matters. We’ll never be content if we look outside ourselves and at our possessions or titles to determine if we are fulfilled. True contentment comes from within and from fulfilling who we were made to be. Our November issue is dedicated to stories of gathering, gratefulness and giving back to our community. We are so thankful for the residents and businesses in our community who support so many wonderful organizations and help make our town the vibrant community that it is. We are especially thankful for our advertising partners who help bring this magazine to your doorsteps each month. They are part of our vision and purpose of bringing inspiring stories and the good news of the community directly to you. This holiday season as we prepare to gather with our loved ones, and in the true spirit of thanksgiving, let’s set time aside to consider what truly makes life meaningful and stop to reflect on those gifts. Blessings to you and your family,

Shelter From the Storm

Paul and Kim Reed are paying it forward by helping people struggling with addiction get the help they need. ARTICLE BY MARY ABEL

O UR TOWN | LOCAL SERVI CE S


Parker residents Paul and Kim Reed aren’t your average business owners. They both have their own successful businesses: Paul, a commercial roofing company and Kim, a commercial roofing academy. But they also have a passion for giving back—by helping people in the construction industry who struggle with addiction get the help they need. Here’s their story.

SO YOU FOCUS YOUR EFFORTS ON PEOPLE IN THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY? KIM: Yes, this industry has been very good to us. We care about blue-collar America. These are the people building everything for us, right? A lot of them struggle with addiction and they don’t have insurance. They need help, and so we’re here for that—you know, helping them on the road to sobriety.

TELL US A LITTLE BIT ABOUT WHY YOU’VE DEVOTED YOUR TIME AND RESOURCES TO HELP PEOPLE STRUGGLING WITH ADDICTION GET INTO REHAB. KIM: Paul and I have been in the construction industry our entire lives. Paul owns Northwest Roofing, a commercial roofing company and I own a roofing school, Commercial Roofing Academy. Paul has been sober for 15 years; 15 years ago, he was in a rehab center and other people helped pay for that and gave him a second chance. He was able to turn his life around and be very, very successful. We decided to start a nonprofit called Roofers in Recovery (roofersinrecovery.org) a couple of years ago. We’ve been able to send over 40 people to rehab facilities throughout the United States, and we pay for everything through fundraising in our industry. So if somebody in your family or in your business within the construction industry needs help, we’re here for them.

AND NOW YOU’RE GOING TO OPEN YOUR OWN REHAB FACILITY IN THE SAN LUIS VALLEY? PAUL: Yes. I’m originally from the San Luis Valley, from Alamosa. I came to Denver 15 years ago to get help with my own addiction because there was nowhere in the entire valley that offered any type of services for anybody with a drug or alcohol issue. When I left the rehab, my intention was to go back home to the San Luis Valley and start my life over again. Go back home to my family and everything I had there. But once I got out of rehab, I realized one of the biggest things you need to stay sober is a community that supports you and holds you accountable—a sober community. And that was one thing that the San Luis Valley lacks. Everyone just kind of looks the other way. SO YOU STAYED IN DENVER. HOW DID YOU COME TO SETTLE IN PARKER? PAUL: Yes, I stayed here and I was able to get my feet back on the ground and became a

successful business owner. We do a lot of roofing all over the state, and we did a lot of jobs in Parker after the hailstorm in 2012. I was doing a lot of roofs in the neighborhood we currently live in. These were some of the nicest people I’ve ever met in my life. We live here because these people are some of the best people I’ve ever met in my whole roofing career working with tens of thousands of different homeowners all over the state. BACK TO THE REHAB FACILITY PROJECT. WHY DID YOU CHOOSE TO OPEN IT IN THE SAN LUIS VALLEY? KIM: Paul is from a small town called Sanford, Colorado, there’s like, I don’t know, 600 people in the town. But throughout the whole San Luis Valley, addiction is everywhere, because there’s nothing down there. It’s kind of a forgotten area. There are six different counties, there’s no rehab facility, no nothing. A few months ago, we were down there and we happened to stumble upon a building that was owned by the state. I made an offer they accepted. PAUL: It was really important for us to start to give back to the community because so many people helped me along the way. Our intention at one point was to open “sober living” houses. At first, opening an actual rehab facility never crossed either one of our minds—we didn’t really think it was possible. But when we were able to buy the building, I was like, how great would this be to be able to come back to the San Luis Valley, build a rehab center, and build a community where people can get long-term sobriety? Because going into rehab and getting sober for 30 days is kind of the easy part. The second part is having that community— the AA or NA meetings or whatever that is, but building that community where people can get the support they need for long-term sobriety.

20

O UR TOWN | PR OFESSIONAL S E RVI CE S

THAT’S AMAZING. TELL US ABOUT YOUR VISION FOR THIS FACILITY. KIM: It’s called Hope in the Valley, and it will be a nonprofit. If you look at most rehab facilities around the U.S., they are for-profit, which makes me sick. These places can charge up to $50,000, when we will be able to get people in for less than $10,000, or free, depending on what their needs are and where our funds are. If people have insurance, then sure, we’ll work with the insurance. But that’s not the purpose of doing this. We need a facility where people know they can go and get the quality care they need at no charge. Because people shy away from going because they think, how am I going to afford that? So we’re trying to build that awareness that, hey, we have a place you can go, no matter your financial situation, because we actually care. AND HOW WILL YOU PROVIDE THAT FOLLOW-UP CARE? THE COMMUNITY THAT IS SO IMPORTANT FOR LONG-TERM SOBRIETY? KIM: Once someone has been through rehab, they will live in our temporary housing, and they’ll be required to take classes at a local college. Then they will have the opportunity to come back and work at the facility, to sponsor somebody, or clean, or help however they can because then we’re giving back to the community, we’re creating jobs, we’re making a difference—not just by putting people through rehab, but literally embedding them in the society they’re a part of. The entire community is very excited. We’ll be offering jobs and support and just a whole new way of life. So it’s going to be a long road. It’s a huge undertaking. But we have the ability, we have the funds, and we have the backing to be able to do this. Our vision is to really give back to society and to Paul’s hometown.

Farming Grounds Veterans CHATFIELD FARMS’ PARTNERSHIP WITH VETERANS TO FARMERS PROVIDES AGRICULTURAL TRAINING TO THE MEN AND WOMEN WHO HAVE PROTECTED US.

ARTICLE BY JOAN DAMERON PHOTOGRAPHY BY ROYCE HALE AND PROVIDED

Two red-tailed hawks screech and circle overhead in a crystal blue sky at Denver Botanic Gardens Chatfield Farms nestled along the banks of Deer Creek in southern Jefferson County. Royce Hale, Farm Education Coordinator of the Veteran Farm Program, leads me on a tour of the market garden and past plum bushes to the veteran garden, a plot of land that started out as a blank space in May and was recently harvested in October. For five months, nine veterans worked together to decide what to plant, where to plant it and how much, including the three sisters (corn, beans and squash) that can be stored for year-round consumption. In addition to team building, participants in the Veterans to Farmers market farming program learn to grow vegetables, take care of themselves, and take care of the land. Soil and plant diversity and soil health are part of the hands-on curriculum. Botany, entomology and how to build drip irrigation are also taught. Training in agricultural systems, technologies and business operations roots the men and women with the skills for a fulfilling and sustainable life.

“They work to plan it out, have faith to put seeds in the ground, get excited when the seedlings pop up and continue to grow, and then taste the fruits of their labor. The big thing that comes out of it is a community of veterans all interested in farming.” — Royce Hale

“This is a very niche experience,” Royce explains. “Nothing else is full-season farming and it takes 20 to 21 weeks to get the full arc of the seasons.” Royce just finished his fourth season teaching. With a background in education, Royce is a veteran and has operated his own Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) share program and still grows a variety of produce. Although Royce was a student himself, he didn’t sign up for the program when he first heard about it. “I had it in my head that it was for veterans that needed help,” he says. “When I got out of the Navy in 1997, I left it all behind me and didn’t talk about it. I realized the (veteran) community is something I missed,” Royce admits. “I’ve embraced being a veteran. Being out here and having your hands in the dirt is therapeutic.” All branches of the military are represented, including the Reserves and Coast Guard, and ages vary from those that have just gotten out of the service after four years to one in their late 70s that served at the tail end of the Korean War. “Experience ranges from veterans that have never put a seed in the ground to veterans like myself that have a farm or land and are working it,” Royce says.

I NSP IR E D BY | WEL L NESS

There are no therapists on staff, yet connections and healing are nurtured and grow right alongside the plants the veterans tend. Co-teacher Catharine McCord focuses on self-care. The group checks in every morning to see how everyone is doing and then again throughout the day to make sure everyone is staying hydrated. “A lot of veterans are food insecure,” Royce explains, “either because they don’t want to go to the store or because they have a lack of self-worth and don’t want to make meals for themselves.” The veterans take home any produce that is harvested and get a CSA share every week. “We do a lot chopping and tasting,” Royce says. Chefs come in to teach food preparation, basic knife skills and how to make easy recipes, such as stir fry, where several types of produce can be incorporated. What is most rewarding about teaching the veterans? “What we are doing right now,” Royce responds. “They work to plan it out, have faith to put seeds in the ground, get excited when the seedlings pop up and continue to grow, and then taste the fruits of their labor. The big thing that comes out of it is a community of veterans all interested in farming.” To learn more or to donate: veteranstofarmers.org

ARTICLE BY MARY ABEL

Everyone has something to give. How will you share your time, treasure or talent? November 29, 2022, is GivingTuesday, a “global generosity movement unleashing the power of radical generosity.” Started in 2012, the movement began as a way to encourage citizens and communities to come together one day a year to do good things for others. Since then, this grassroots group encourages year-round giving, with ideas as simple as helping a neighbor going through a tough time to organizing a fundraising event to fill the local food pantry.

Let it Snow With no COVID restrictions and new upgrades, some of Colorado’s top ski resorts invite you to come and play ARTICLE BY LISA BAKEWELL

Summer is over, and we know the powder will start piling up any minute. And whether you’re a novice or an experienced skier, each of these featured ski resorts has something special planned for the 2022–2023 season.

ASPEN Aspen Snowmass is gearing up for another robust winter season, which includes the return of World Cup racing (March 3–5, 2023) on Aspen Mountain. Other major developments include the all-new Buttermilk base area that was transformed to include a new 9,000+ square-foot, fully electric skier services building; a renovated and rebranded Buttermilk Mountain Lodge restaurant; and an expanded bar and outdoor patio. “This major $23

million renovation will create a more seamless experience for guests as they make their way onto the mountain,” says Hannah Dixon, Communications Manager for Aspen Snowmass. Plus Aspen Snowmass is letting you in on one of its best-kept secrets—the more than 100 shrines sprinkled throughout the Aspen Snowmass quartet of mountains. Hidden from plain sight, tucked away in the trees, and kept a secret—until now—these shrines provide added adventure to your ski trip. Purchase lift tickets and season passes online or through the Aspen Snowmass app, which serves as an in-resort information hub with interactive maps, snow reports, parking status, wait times, and more. Opening day is November 24. CONTINUED >

O UT D OOR A DV E N T U R E | S PORTS + RE CRE ATI ON

Built on pioneering spirit, Vail celebrates 60 years of success this year. To celebrate, Game Creek Express was replaced with a high-speed, six-person chairlift for improved reliability and uphill capacity; it was repositioned to add room for a new chairlift, the Sun Down Express. Also, as a way to prioritize guest experiences this season, Vail will limit lift ticket sales. According to James O’Donnell, President of Vail Resorts’ Mountain division, “Limiting lift tickets throughout the season, alongside the big investments we’re making at our resorts and in our team members, will help us provide our guests with an experience of a lifetime this winter.” Guests are encouraged to secure lift access in advance. Guests can purchase any Epic Pass product using Epic FlexPay, which enables monthly installments with zero down payment/interest. Vail opens on November 11.

Whether you’re a novice or an experienced skier, each of these featured ski resorts has something special planned for the 2022–2023 season.

TELLURIDE

BRECKENRIDGE

This year is Telluride Ski Resorts’ 50th anniversary, and it’s celebrating with a new Plunge lift, “making access to some of its most popular expert terrain quicker and more comfortable,” says Tom Watkinson, Director of Communications. Although Telluride has a reputation for being an extreme mountain, over half of the resort is beginner or intermediate terrain. Also, Telluride has the only gondola transportation system of its kind in North America. “A destination made up of two, pedestrian-oriented towns makes the need for vehicular transportation unnecessary,” shares Watkinson. “Visitors will get around by foot, ski, or gondola.” A new high-speed, detachable Doppelmayr quad-chair upgrade (top of 9) was added to Telluride this year, which is twice as fast as its predecessor and more energy efficient. The top of 9, which is almost all solid rock, is also being lowered to make room for a new terminal and increased skier capacity, and snowmaking piping will be replaced while digging trenches for new power lines. Lift tickets are $209; the opening day is November 24.

Breckenridge spans five mountain peaks within Colorado’s distinct Ten Mile Range, which serves as a fantastic backdrop for the historic Town of Breckenridge. The connection between mountain and town is ever-present from the abundance of walk-to-lift accommodations, the BreckConnect Gondola, and ski-to-town trails. According to Sara Lococo, Senior Manager of Communication, “Nowhere else in the world can you ski from the highest chairlift in North America—Imperial SuperChair—directly into town for après.” This season, the focus is on the Rip’s Ride chairlift, which was upgraded to a high-speed quad. According to Lococo, “[It] will provide guests with faster access to Peak 8’s primary learning terrain and allow for more time spent on the snow, as well as provide easier and more convenient access from Rip’s Ride over to Peak 9.” Ticket prices vary. Purchase them online at least seven days in advance. For added value, purchase Epic Pass or Epic Day Pass products. It opens on November 11.

PHOTOGRAPHY BY JANIE JONES

Your Autumn Dinner Party Is Served Catering experts Chef Kyle and Hannah Williams, owners of Savor & Swirl culinary company, create an outdoor dinner party with chef-driven perennial dishes served in beautiful seasonal settings.

For this alfresco Autumn Dinner Party, Chef Kyle draws on favorite fall recipes updated for a modern palate and paired with wine selections to complement the bountiful feast. Hannah creates an iconic autumn ambiance using artisanal table settings and mixed flannels for each guest to blanket any chill on a brisk evening. Whether for Friendsgiving, Thanksgiving or a new November tradition, it’s time to get outdoors again surrounded in sweater-weather coziness while sharing bites and clinks with family and friends.

“Thin k f l an n el bl an k ets , woo d e n t a bl es , f ire pit s , o pe n g r ill s , st r ing light s an d can dl es to c reat e a really cool e nv iron m e nt you h ave n’t bee n a bl e to d o all s u m m e r.”

Insider Tips for Hosting:

• Build a menu around the season. “In November, people crave turkey, sage stuffing and cranberry sauce,” Chef Kyle says. “Autumn dinners mean bigger-course meals with varied proteins, like turkey, duck and sirloin, hearty starches, and good fall produce, especially root vegetables such as butternut squash and pumpkin.” • Always greet guests with a beverage and appetizers. “Offer champagne for wine-lovers or a sparkling drink or signature cocktail. It’s all about serving guests to the highest caliber,” Kyle says. • Draw inspiration from the season’s changing colors, cooler temps and lower humidity to move back outdoors. “Think flannel blankets, wooden tables, fire pits, open grills, string lights and candles to create a really cool environment you haven’t been able to do all summer.” • “You can’t go wrong with fresh flowers,” Hannah says, “but keep bouquets low to not interfere with conversation flowing. For fall, I like richer, jewel-toned florals to mix and match and keep whimsical. I vary glass vases with burnished brass for warm fall vibes.” • An easy but thoughtful detail is to put a simple menu at each place setting, so guests know what to expect. “Add a pen, so guests can jot tasting notes, especially for wine pairings or multiple courses,” Hannah says. “Guests can share comments, then take the menu home as a sweet reminder of the event.” • Follow the French principle of mise en place or everything in place before your event. “This is actually our company’s name,” Kyle says. “It’s that important to us. Make sure the wines are all open, cocktails are pre-made, place settings are out, candles are lit and music is playing. When guests arrive, it gives that wow-factor and shows you intentionally made them feel special.” • To build confidence as a host, start small and practice. “Keep the menu and guest list small,” Kyle says. “Choose recipes you already have confidence in. If you make a great Beef Stroganoff, then go with that. People will love it!” • As fun as it is to dine outside, always have an indoors back-up plan. “We’ve had to bring it indoors before,” Hannah says. “It’s still fun.” CONTINUED > NOVEMB ER 2 0 2 2 | C I TYL I FE STYL E .

FRESH ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS & HARDWOOD SMOKED BACON Yield: 6 servings 4 cups Brussels sprouts, raw, halved 1-2 tablespoons olive oil ¼ cup yellow onion, sliced 1 tablespoon garlic, sliced thin 1-2 cups bacon, smoked, thick cut, large dice • Salt, pepper to taste • 2 tablespoons real butter, unsalted • Optional garnish - 1 tablespoon parsley, chopped

The Recipes

• • • • •

CRANBERRY ORANGE ZEST SAUCE Yields 4 cups

METHOD OF PREPARATION: 1. Preheat oven to 400 °F for convection setting, (425 °F conventional). 2. In mixing bowl, add oil and cut raw Brussels sprouts. Season with salt and pepper. 3. Place seasoned sprouts on baking sheet and bake in oven until done, about 20-40 minutes (soft yet still with good texture and crispy edges with some dark brown color). Remove from oven. 4. Place large sauté pan on medium heat and render bacon. Add a splash of olive oil to get it going, if needed. Cook until bacon is crispy and golden brown, 5-10 minutes. 5. Add onions to pan and cook until soft, 5-8 minutes. 6. Turn heat to high and add garlic and butter and cook for 1 minute. 7. Add roasted Brussels sprouts to pan and toss all together. Season to taste with salt and pepper. 8. For optional garnishes, add fresh chopped parsley. 9. Serve and enjoy!

CHEF NOTES: • If Brussels sprouts are large, cut in quarters. • Rendering bacon means extracting the bacon fat which adds a lot of flavor to the dish.

• • • • • • • • • •

3 cups cranberries, fresh or frozen 1 cup cranberry juice, sweetened 1 piece orange peel 1 each orange for zesting ½ cup orange juice, freshly juiced 3 each cinnamon stick ¼ teaspoon clove, ground ¼ teaspoon allspice, ground ½ cup sugar Pinch salt

METHOD OF PREPARATION: 1. In medium saucepot on high heat, add everything except orange peel and orange zest. Bring ingredients to boil, then reduce to a simmer with lid. 2. While simmering, stir occasionally with rubber spatula ensuring bottom does not burn. Simmer for 30 minutes or until sauce thickens. 3. Remove lid and add orange peel and season to taste. Can add more sugar or spice if needed. 4. Once sauce is thickened and most liquid has evaporated, remove orange peel and cinnamon sticks and remove pot from heat. 5. With hand-held blender, puree sauce, keeping some texture. 6. Freshly grate in orange zest, stir and season to taste. 7. Transfer sauce to jar and place in refrigerator to cool overnight. 8. Enjoy!

CHEF NOTES:

Bon appetit! Chef Kyle Williams, Savor & Swirl

• Enjoy with all types of poultry and game birds. • Do not use ground cinnamon. • Can puree with blender if you do not have hand-held blender. • Consistency should be thick sauce and not a jelly. CONTINUED > NOVEMB ER 2 0 2 2 | C I TYL I FE STYL E . C O M / PA R KE R

Wine Pairing

According to Savor & Swirl, wine pairing doesn’t need to be overly complicated for a casual outdoor dinner party. Have a lighter and fuller body style of white and red available with some sparkling thrown in. “Lighter to medium-bodied wines from Rhône Valley, Italy or California would be a good place to start,” they state. “Viognier is one of our favorite wines that goes great with fall-inspired cuisines. Pinot Noir wine goes great with just about any food. Lean towards California or Willamette Valley for a new-world style and go with France for a more earthy, old-world style. A big bold Napa Cab would fall in perfectly for the grilled ribeye steak! Cheers!”

ABOUT SAVOR & SWIRL Chef Kyle Williams has over 22 years of experience in the elite culinary industry, including 2 Michelin-starred restaurants in Italy, resorts in Hawaii, and alongside prestigious NYC celebrity chefs Todd English, David Burke, and Daniel Boulud. Savor & Swirl has recently expanded to include nationwide mobile catering. Book online, and they will bring their expertise to you, including customizable, in-home dinner parties or luncheons for holidays, events, business gatherings and surprise pop-ups. “We love to gather with people who value breaking bread together around a table with the special people in their lives.” savorandswirl.com Instagram: @savorandswirl, #savorandswirl
