Ignatius sounds o� Community at risk due to 150-acre property By Pat Hill [email protected]

Responding to citizen concerns about the effect of Charis Bible Col-lege on district-wide fi re protection, Jim Ignatius was up front about what he views as the risks involved.

“If an incident happens at Charis we would send this entire (on staff) fi re department plus an engine and a truck,” said Ignatius, chair-man of the board of Northeast Teller County Fire Protection District. “But 82 square miles would have no coverage whatsoever - that’s the concern the residents have right now.”

At issue is the tax-exempt status of the college which, under Colo-rado law, is not required to pay property taxes.

“It’s not the college, it’s the magnitude of the property valued at $32 million and 500,000 square feet, that’s the issue,” he said, referring to the 150-acre college and the projected square feet at buildout, which includes the fi ve-story parking garage.

As well, college enrollment is anywhere from 1,000 to 3,000 students, he said. “Add to that the potential of the structure catching on fi re,” he said.

Granted, the property is surrounded by a sprinkler system, Igna-tius said. “But you still have the structure, the risk and the exposure,” Ignatius said. “Charis doesn’t have to pay taxes but we provide a service to that entity at the expense of the other 82 square miles of people who are paying property taxes.”

Some homeowners have expressed their concern in letters to news-paper editors and phone calls to him and Chief Tyler Lambert, Ignatius said.

ISO RATINGS AFFECTEDAs a result of the threat, the city of Woodland Park is rated 5 by the

Insurance Service Offi ce, ISO. On a scale of 1 to 10, 1 is the highest; a 5 rating means the department is within 5 miles of a fi re hydrant and within 1,000 feet of an approved water system.

“That determines insurance rates. If we’re not able to ramp up that response time everybody will pay more, commercial and residential, to offset the risk that we’re not able to mitigate,” Ignatius said. “This snowball just keeps going downhill.”

To the question of mutual aid from nearby departments such as Divide or Green Mountain Falls, for instance, each is staffed by volun-teers, Ignatius said. “If you’ve ever seen a graph about how fast a fi re grows, after about an hour you might as well just back your equipment out because you’ve pretty much just lost a structure,” he added.

Known as the “bench” in fi refi ghter terms, the nearby districts would also be stripped of resources if the volunteers raced off to Woodland

Park. “Our bench is zero once everybody goes over to Charis,” Ignatius said.

According to Chief Lambert, the department has responded fi ve times to one address at Charis in the past year; however, Ignatius added, additional calls to the Charis property include responses to emergencies such as gas leaks, water leaks, medical calls, car accidents and construction issues. “This is the reality of what’s actually happen-ing,” he said.

IGNATIUS GOES PUBLICAfter repeated requests to Charis for fi nancial help were denied,

Ignatius decided to go public with his concerns, he said.For instance, to one request for aid Charis offi cials responded with

an offer to assist with community fundraising through spaghetti din-ners or pancake breakfasts. “The public is already donating — 13 mills for the service they want,” Ignatius said.

As well, a formal request to Charis to set aside a payment to the department in lieu of taxes — PILT — was rebuffed, said board member Craig Chellis. “We went down that road because it’s been used by other jurisdictions to deal with issues like this,” Chellis said.

Ignatius added, “If something would come in the form of a PILT payment, it would allow us to put on more personnel to take care of the community paying for this service, in the event something did happen over there.”

Ignatius acknowledged that he had delayed in announcing the risk to the public. “The reason we didn’t do this in April is because the board wanted to see if something would come out of communication with Charis,” he said. “It didn’t.”

Ignatius views the risk as the perfect little storm brewing. “If I weren’t on this board and all this was happening and all we did was keep it between us, I would not be very happy,” he said. “Not that I can do anything about it, but at least I’d know that when I dial 911, if something is happening over at that complex the response might be delayed.”

FINANCIAL FACTSAfter the Waldo Canyon Fire in 2012, the NETCO board recognized

that the department’s resources were dwindling quickly, due to the de-crease in property taxes, Ignatius said. “Our budget was down to about $1.6 million from $1.85 million and continuing to go down,” he said. “Property values were going to drop somewhere between $200,000 and $300,000 on top of the decrease to $1.6 million.”

District voters came to the rescue in November 2012 by approving an increase in the mill levy from nine to 13 mills, which allowed the district to sustain the staff that included a chief, a fi re marshal, assistant administrator, 12 full-time and 13 part-time fi refi ghters, who respond to at least 1,000 calls a year.

“We immediately went from four to fi ve fi refi ghters per shift,” he said. “It would take four or fi ve people just to lay the hose to go to a fi re at Charis. It’s a little scary but the public needs to know.”

Highway 67 closed at Trumbell Sta� report

Authorities in Douglas County have closed the South Platte River Road bridge on Colorado 67 at the town of Trumbull un-til further notice.

Douglas County sheriff’s offi ce an-nounced the closure Thursday last week

at about 2 p.m. Offi cials released an image of the river showing it threatening to wash over the structure.

“There is no estimate on reopening at this time,” the sheriff’s offi ce said in a news release. “Residents of the Trumbull com-munity will need to access their properties from the Deckers side. All other residents

will need to access the River Road from the north or east.”

The road also remains closed for local traffi c from Deckers to Buffalo Creek, the release said.

Thursday morning, the South Platte was fl owing above the fl ood stage, according to the National Weather Service in Boulder. A

fl ood warning remains in effect for the area until the river falls below the stage.

In Jefferson and Douglas counties, tub-ing, boating, fi shing and swimming in the South Platte River and the river’s north fork have been banned until further notice. Peo-ple are also being asked to stay away from unstable banks along the river.

Symphony celebrates 35 years Carrigan named guest conductor By Pat Hill [email protected]

Thirty fi ve years and still going strong, the July 5th Symphony above the Clouds thrusts the city of Woodland Park among places that do it up big to celebrate Amer-ica’s birthday.

Cannons roar, fi reworks pop, fl ags fl ap and music resounds with the Tchaikovsky’s 1812 Overture while the crowd revels in the grand fi nale of the concert hosted by the Ute Pass Symphony Guild.

“The symphony is a tradition for fami-lies to have their relatives or friends come in from out-of-town for this event,” said Julie Matthews, publicity chair for the non-profi t organization. The performance is on the grounds at the Woodland Park Middle School, where guests are encouraged to bring lawn chairs.

New this year is a drone fl own by a pilot who represents CR Chambers Photography. “There will only be one drone there,” Mat-thews said. “The drone won’t be fl ying right over the crowd.”

A special part of the annual performance is the selection of a guest conductor; this year’s is Rob Carrigan, publisher and editor of the Pikes Peak Courier. “The Courier has made a signifi cant contribution in publish-ing our inserts free of charge,” Matthews said. “We so appreciate that.”

Under Carrigan, the Courier is engaged with the community through stories, col-umns and ads in addition to the role of the offi ce, where people often stop in just to chat.

“I think the symphony is congruent with what we try to do at The Courier; it’s a long-time piece of the culture and part of the experience of Woodland Park and Teller County in the summer,” Carrigan said. “I’m honored to be asked to be the guest con-ductor.”

Carrigan acknowledges that he is not schooled in directing a professional orches-tra. “In terms of my particular experience, I was in a few air bands in high school and college,” he said. “That’s about the size of it. Both my daughters are musically-inclined but, honestly, I haven’t touched an instru-ment since 1972.”

The guild is well aware that guest con-ductors are professionals in fi elds other than music; thus, Carrigan is scheduled to be trained by the real conductor, Thomas

Wilson, at the Pikes Peak Center. “They’re going to try and get me ready,” Carrigan said. “So I hope it’s a lot like an air band.”

After the introductory performance at 5:30 p.m. by Ceol Ceili, Carrigan will di-rect the “Liberty Bell March” by John Philip Sousa.

While he’s new at the gig, Carrigan is ready, more or less. “I’m probably going to try to emulate one of my heroes, Teddy Roosevelt, and walk softly and carry a big stick,” he said.

The gates at the middle school on Kel-ley’s Road open at 5 p.m. July 5.

Parking is available at the churches on Rampart, Range Road, Mountain View United Methodist, High View Baptist and Day Spring Christian Fellowship, in addi-tion to Columbine Elementary School on Kelley’s Road.Food is available at the booth hosted by the Woodland Park High School Booster Club. Pets are not allowed at the symphony.

Teller Senior Coalition recaps yearAnnual luncheon draws a neighborly crowdBy Norma EngelbergContributing writer

About 140 Teller County residents came to-gether to celebrate a year of volunteerism and service at the Teller Senior Coalition “Neigh-bors helping Neighbors” fundraiser luncheon on June 17 at the Ute Pass Cultural Center.

Forest Edge Senior Living and Pikes Peak Regional Hospital sponsored the luncheon, which was catered by the Mucky Duck Res-taurant in Green Mountain Falls.

Coalition Executive Director Barbara Berger told the gathered neighbors that the coalition saw a 200 percent increase in the numbers of services it provides and saw a 300 percent increase in the use of transportation services.

“We help people as they age,” she said. “But we also help those who need our help before they become seniors.”

She cited a statistic offered by Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper who said that within 15 years one-quarter of Colorado’s population will 60 or older.

“We all want to stay in our homes as long as we can,” Berger said. “Transportation and the other services we provide help us do that.”

Bedsides the new bus service between Vic-tor and Cripple Creek, there is also a shuttle that seniors can use in Woodland Park once a week for shopping and other needs.

A significant amount of funding for coali-tion services comes from state and federal grants but it doesn’t come up front and there is always a match involved.

“A (Colorado Department of Transpor-tation) grant gave us money to buy a four-wheel-drive vehicle with a wheelchair lift but how were we going to come up with the $12,000-$15,000 match?” Berger asked. “With help from a grant writer we were able to get a $25,000 grant from the Christopher Reeves Foundation… We’re also soliciting more peo-ple who can volunteer to take a neighbor plac-es,” Berger said. “We can subsidize your gas.”

Forest Edge Senior LivingAfter showing a video about the coalition,

Berger turned the microphone over to Bob Schleicher who spoke and answered ques-tions about his latest project, the construc-

tion of the Forest Ridge facility on the hospital campus.

He said he has been a real estate broker for 30 years and that in 1999 he became in-terested in long-term care facilities. He and

his family moved to Teller County in 2005. In 2010 he Curt Grina, one of the many people who made building a hospital in Teller County possible. That meeting spurred the idea of creating a skilled nursing care facility near the hospital.

“The Woodland Park Senior Club members helped name the facility in 2011,” Schleicher said. “Construction started last September. We’ve had some weather-related setbacks but I am still hopeful that we’ll be able to open in November.”

He explained that the facility will have 80 private rooms, four dining areas and will offer four levels of care: short-stay rehabilitation, long-term care, assisted living and memo-ry care. Care will be provided by Onpointe Health.

“This will be a place for living,” he said, adding that the facility will accept, private funding and insurance as well as Medicare and Medicaid.

More information about the facility is available at www.forestridgeseniorliving-woodlandpark.com.

More information about Teller Senior Co-alition services can be found at www.tellerse-niorcoalition.org or by calling 719-687-3330. The hospital also provides programs for se-niors age 55 and older through its Senior Cir-cle. For more information email [email protected] or call 719-686-5802.

Teller Senior Coalition recaps year

his family moved to Teller County in 2005. In 2010 he Curt Grina, one of the many people who made building a hospital in Teller County possible. That meeting spurred the idea of creating a skilled nursing care facility near the hospital.

“The Woodland Park Senior Club members helped name the facility in 2011,” Schleicher said. “Construction started last September. We’ve had some weather-related setbacks but I am still hopeful that we’ll be able to open in November.”

He explained that the facility will have 80 private rooms, four dining areas and will offer four levels of care: short-stay rehabilitation, long-term care, assisted living and memo-ry care. Care will be provided by Onpointe Health.

“This will be a place for living,” he said, adding that the facility will accept, private funding and insurance as well as Medicare and Medicaid.

More information about the facility is available at www.forestridgeseniorliving-woodlandpark.com.

More information about Teller Senior Co-alition services can be found at www.tellerse-niorcoalition.org or by calling 719-687-3330. The hospital also provides programs for se-niors age 55 and older through its Senior Cir-cle. For more information email [email protected] or call 719-686-5802.

Summer game takes center stage Now that the National Hockey League and

National Basketball Association seasons have offi cially ended — hats off to the Chicago Blackhawks and Golden State Warriors, respectively — baseball has the stage all to itself for next two-and-a-half months.

Of the four major sports in America — baseball, football (college and pro), basket-ball (college and pro), and hockey — baseball has the longest season. It begins in mid-Feb-ruary, when spring training camps open in Florida and Arizona, and ends in late Octo-ber - sometimes early November — with the World Series. That is a nine-month season for those who are counting.

For a week or two in October, all four major sports are playing games at the same time. For those of us in Colorado, Wyoming and surrounding states, it is possible over a long weekend — Friday through Monday — to see home games involving the Colorado Avalanche, Denver Nuggets, Colorado Rock-ies (if they advance to the World Series), and Denver Broncos, and college football games involving Colorado State University and the University of Colorado. What great memories a weekend like that would make.

Now back to baseball.The summer game has been played

professionally for about 150 years. Before the American Civil War, baseball competed for public interest with cricket and regional vari-ants of baseball, notably “town ball,” played primarily in Philadelphia, and the “Massa-chusetts Game,” played in New England.

In the 1860s, aided by the War, “New York” style baseball expanded into a na-tional game, as its fi rst governing body, The National Association of Base Ball Players, was formed. The NABBP soon expanded into a true national organization, although most of

the strongest clubs remained those based in the north-eastern part of the country. In its 12-year history as an amateur league, the Brooklyn Atlantics won seven cham-pionships, estab-lishing themselves as the fi rst true dynasty in the sport, although, the New York Mutuals were widely considered to be one of the best teams of the era as

well.By the end of 1865, almost 100 clubs were

members of the NABBP. By 1867, it bal-looned to over 400 members, including some clubs from as far away as San Francisco and Louisiana. One of these clubs, the Chicago White Stockings, won the championship in 1870. Today known as the Chicago Cubs, they are the oldest team in American organized sports.

The NABBP of America was initially established upon principles of amateurism. However, even early in its history some star players, such as James Creighton of Excelsior, received compensation, either secretly or indirectly. In 1866, the NABBP investigated Athletic of Philadelphia for paying three players, but ultimately took no action against either the club or the players. To address this growing practice and to restore integrity to the game, at its December 1868 meeting the NABBP established a professional category for the 1869 season. Clubs desiring to pay

players were now free to declare itself profes-sional.

The Cincinnati Red Stockings were the fi rst to declare that they were openly profes-sional, and were easily the most aggressive in recruiting the best available players. Twelve clubs, including most of the strongest clubs in the NABBP, ultimately declared themselves professional for the 1869 season.

In 1869, the Red Stockings posted a per-fect 65-0 record; the only perfect season in professional baseball history. This was the fi rst team to play on the east and west coasts in the same season.

With the same regular nine (plus one reserve player), the 1870 team won their fi rst 24 games of the 1870 season before losing 8-7 in eleven innings to the Brooklyn Atlantics in Brooklyn on June 14. The Red Stockings remained one of the few strongest teams on the fi eld, losing only six games, but atten-dance declined badly, especially at home.

When the NABBP permitted professional members for 1869, Harry Wright organized a fully professional team of 10 men on salary for eight months; March 15 to November 15. Wright played center fi eld and coordinated the team defense, a novelty from any posi-tion. Younger brother and shortstop George Wright, new to the team in 1869, was its best player and maybe the best of his time.

George was born in England in 1835, while Harry was born in New York City in 1842. Both are in the National Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York.

I will write more on the Baseball Hall of Fame next month. I have had the honor of visiting the Hall of Fame three times and I highly recommend making the trek east if you have the opportunity.

A publication of

Duty out of danger, without pain Ben Franklin, an old newspaper man him-

self, noted that is “It is the fi rst responsibility of every citizen to question authority.”

In the midst of questioning authority, and generally bringing useful information to public,

“Public enlightenment is the forerunner of justice and the foundation of democracy. Ethical journalism strives to ensure the free exchange of information that is accurate, fair and thorough. An ethical journalist acts with integrity,” according to the Society of Profes-sional Journalists.

I have always considered it a noble profes-sion with a lot of responsibility.

It can also be dangerous. I was reminded of that recently researching the story about the 1965 fl oods in this area. One of the fi rst reported deaths during that crisis was James Osnowitz.

“James Osnowitz, 23, a Pueblo Star-Journal and Chieftain employee, died when his car crashed through the barricade at the scene of fl ooding, near Larkspur, south of Denver,” said the Chicago Tribune on June 18, 1965.

His obituary in the Colorado Springs Free Press on June 18, 1965, headline read:

“Pueblo Newsman Drowns in Flood Near Larkspur.” It goes on to report.

“The body of a 22-year-old Pueblo news-man was pulled from his submerged car near

Larkspur, Douglas County, Thursday. James Edward Osnow-itz, a summer em-ployee of the Pueblo Chieftain and Star-Journal, was found by skin divers. Because offi cials of the Doug-las County Sheriff’s Offi ce could not reach the area, Sheriff Earl L. Sullivan of El Paso County ordered the body brought out. The body was taken to St. Francis Hospital and then to the Law

Mortuary pending transfer to Pueblo. Os-nowitz was born on Jan. 9, 1943, at Sioux City, Iowa. He was a recent graduate of Southern Colorado State College at Pueblo and held a scholarship to the University of Pennsylva-nia School of Journalism. The Osnowitz car apparently crashed through a barricade and he was trapped inside by fl ooding waters Wednesday, according to the report.”

The Committee to Protect Journalists identifi es 1,134 journalists killed in line of duty, just since 1994, when it started keeping records. Other ways of making a living, and just living itself, of course can be dangerous.

For example, Jessica Ghawi, an aspiring Colorado sports reporter who barely missed a deadly Toronto shooting a few days before, was among those killed by a crazed gunman at an Aurora theater, just going to movie on her off time.

And the Alan Berg killing, June 18, 1984, was a stark reminder that certain crazy peo-ple can take offense from things you might say, and even the way your say it.

Berg was an American attorney and Denver talk show host notable for his largely liberal, outspoken viewpoints and confronta-tional interview style. Berg was gunned down in the driveway of his Denver town home by members of the Order.

All of us know of more tragic examples that burn uneasy concern in our operating plans. Journalists, and of course everyone’s, primary responsibility is to try to stay upright and breathing in the line of duty and danger.

Sam Clemens, or Mark Twain by the name he developed writing for the Virginia City Territorial Enterprise, had perhaps the cor-rect take.

“Do something everyday that you don’t want to do carefully; this is the golden rule for acquiring the habit of doing your duty without pain.”

To emphasize: Duty without pain.

Old Bill dies a� er years of tales about kin In April, 1931, Old Bill died in Colorado

Springs. He was not as famous as his brother, who had died many years earlier. He was partly the reason his brother came to be famous, and long after his sibling was gone, Old Bill continued to tell the tales of his colorful kin. He would have been 81, had he lived another 60 days.

His father Sam moved with the family from Kentucky just before the Civil War broke out. They arrived in the Pikes Peak Region in April of 1861. They landed in Denver, but he went on up to Idaho Springs, having pros-pected along the way. He discovered a vein of Silver and started working on the claim, which became the Seaton Mine. He sold the mine, which became one of the more famous mines in that camp, after the family moved on!

His search for silver brought the family to the area east of Pikes Peak, but not any indication of silver or gold was to be found. He rambled around the mountain for two years before settling into ranching.

His two sons, be-ing old enough to go off on their own, also went into ranching. They negotiated with the Welty brothers, southwest of the big mountain for grazing

land. A bit of cash, and two pigs eventually

became 1,000 head of purebred shorthorn cattle. The grazing area was rolling, and there was steady water.

Winters could be bad, but buying and selling cattle in Canon City, Fairplay, and Colorado Springs was giving them a solid foundation. On a parcel of land they recently spread onto, Bill found some stones with color. He took it into Colorado Springs, and yes, it was gold. He watched for more, but never had further luck. He fi led a claim in Denver on the property, just in case!

This got his brother interested, and he spent every free minute looking around the spot where Bill found those rocks. He searched for nearly four years before he found something. He had shared his idea to

Are sports drinks good, or bad? This from the website www.gatorade.com: “In was the

early summer of 1965, when a University of Florida as-sistant football coach sat down with a team of university physicians and asked them to determine why so many of his players were being affected by heat and heat related illnesses. The researchers … Dr. Robert Cade, Dr. Dana Shires, Dr. H. James Free and Dr. Alejandro de Quesada … soon discovered two key factors that were causing the Gator players to wilt: the fl uids and electrolytes the players lost through sweat were not being replaced and the large amounts of carbohydrates the players’ bodies used for energy were not being replenished.”

“The researchers then took their fi ndings into the lab, and scientifi cally formulated a new, precisely balanced carbohydrate-electrolyte beverage that would adequately replace the key components lost by Gator players through sweating and exercise. They called their concoction Gato-rade.”

And a $1.5 billion a year industry was born. Sharing the grocery store shelves today with Gatorade are Powerade, All Sport, Mizone, Staminade, Accelerade, Propel, Maxade Pocari Sweat to name a few and, of course, bottled water.

What’s the right choice to keep your body hydrated and your mineral and electrolyte levels balanced, while you exercise? You might be surprised.

The July issue of Consumer Re-ports on Health posed the question as to whether sports drinks are more hydrating and healthier than regular water. Their experts say it’s unlikely and there’s studies to back up their claim.

The researchers’ basic premise is that few people exercise vigorously enough that they need to replen-ish electrolytes. “Do vitamins and minerals add to hydration? No,” says Leslie Bonci, a dietitian and director of sports nutrition at the University of Pittsburg Medical Center.

“What’s hydrating is the fl uid,” she continued. “Any liquid is going to be hydrating, even coffee.”

Several articles published in the British Medical Journal in 2012 entitled “Truth about Sports Drinks” agrees. The researchers say, “Drink when you are thirsty and don’t waste your money or calories on sports drinks.”

Sports drinks are fl avored beverages that contain carbohydrates (read sugar) and minerals, such as sodium and potassium. Those minerals are generally referred to as

electrolytes.A 16-ounce container of the sports drink Body-armor

has 140 calories and 36 grams of sugar, which is about two-thirds of the calories and sugar in a 16.9 fl uid-ounce bottle of Pepsi, highlighting a main concern that sports drinks deliver unneeded calories. A report from the Uni-versity of California at Berkeley claims that people who drink 20-ounces of sports drink a day stand to gain an av-erage of 13 pounds a year. The contention of the experts is that if the casual runner avoided sports drinks, they would get thinner and run faster.

So what’s the everyday exercise hacker supposed to do to stay hydrated?

“Unless you’re working out intensely for more than an hour, it’s unlikely you’ll lose signifi cant electrolytes,” says Dr. Marvin Lipman, the chief medical advisor for Con-sumer Reports. Water is the gold standard and has been for thousands of years.

many on his visits to Colorado City for sup-plies. This was the start of his nickname. Hardly a saloon visitor had not heard the tales of “Crazy Bob.”

Bill left the area near the time of the discovery of gold and the start of the camp. He sold his claim and moved back

to Kentucky, because of health problems. His brother Bill became even better known in the new camp, but new people were overshadowing the two brothers. Bob’s Gold King mine was soon one of fi rst big producers. The mine was sold and Bob moved to Colorado City.

Eventually, Bill came back to Colorado, settling in Colorado Springs. The camp held the Womack name in curious regard. Had Bill become the famous brother, who knows what history would have said about him instead of his colorful brother.

Dear Editor:Your front-page headline read, “Cripple

Creek and Victor mine sold.”It was followed by several paragraphs

of blah, blah, blah corporate-speak that may mean something to the stockholders but had nothing to do with the towns and citizens of Cripple Creek and Victor. In my opinion, it was worthless as far as commu-nity news goes.

How about getting an interview with Newmont Mining Corp. and ask them what their plans are for the mine? Does it matter what AngloGold Ashanti Ltd. is going to do other than continue to make money from

the smelter return royalty? I’m sure labor is cheaper in the Democratic Republic of Congo so they may continue to have a “high-margin gold portfolio.”

Is Newmont going to “right-size” the op-eration (i.e., lay off jobs)? Will they proceed with the expansion? Give us some news we can use, please.

Sincerely, Rick Weaver

Dear Editor:The Southern Teller County Focus

Group would like to extend a heartfelt thanks to those who made the 3rd Annual Victor Gem and Mineral Show a huge suc-

cess June 20 and 21.The Cripple Creek & Victor Gold Mining

Co., City of Victor, and Victor Elks Lodge al-lowed us the use of their lots in downtown Victor for vendor set up – many thanks for this and to the Elks for cooking! The City of Victor donated the vendor fees back to our nonprofi t which makes it possible for us to pay for insurance and other needs for this show. Victor D.R.E.A.M. allowed us use of their Easyup tent and sandwich board signs so we could promote the STCFG and event. Thanks to Teller County and Cripple Creek Ace Hardware for banner spaces.

Many thanks to STCFG and Victor Low-

ell Thomas Museum volunteers who assist-ed – Veldean Petri, Brad Poulson, Rhonda Watson, Sarah Watson, Jim Muntzert, and Jon Zalewski.

We had 21 vendors for the show, all were great to work with, courteous, and insured the event site was clean and refuse free when they left.

Given the success of the 2015 show, the STCFG is busy planning the 4th Annual Victor Gem & Mineral Show which be held the third weekend of June in 2016..

Thanks again to all who helped and made this event possible.

Ruth Zalewski, STCFG

LIFELOCAL

STORY BY PAT HILL • [email protected]

mark Twain probably never imagined that one of his lesser-known stories written more than a century ago would put the spotlight on the city of Victor.

The city’s historic Gold coin club is the backdrop for “carnival of crime,” directed by independent filmmaker, Jessica Jones-carson. The script is loosely based on Twain’s “The Facts concerning the Re-cent carnival of crime in connecticut.”

The cast includes 12 locals, some of whom were corralled by Vic-tor resident, Karen morrison, into being part of the 20-minute film. morrison and her husband Sam are the public relations team for the project.

“I was in the wrong place at the wrong time,” said Richard courson, by way of explanation for his selection from morrison’s list.

On the other hand, Shawn Frizzell was thrilled about playing a part, albeit, a bit part. “Well, that sounds like fun!” said Frizzell, who “plays” a dead body.

Gerry Arnold plays a blind man. “I have one line in the movie,” he said. “It’s `I can see.’” Arnold’s dog, Penga, also has a role.

even the mayor, Buck Hakes, is in the film. “I play the mayor,” he said. “It’s typecasting.”Andy Watson, whose 24/7 job is preacher at the First Baptist church in Victor, plays one of the bad guys. “We

buy dead bodies to sell to the university,” he said.The story revolves around unresolved guilt and the presence of evil. “The person playing mark (Twain) con-

fronts the personification of his conscience and kills it,” Jones-carson said. “Therein starts the crimes. It’s about conscience.”

Along with the locals, the setting at the Gold coin is a vital part of the script. Built in 1899 and refurbished by the owner, Jim Watson, the building is a showcase for Victorian architecture, a reflection of the city’s cultural as-sets.

Along with the morrisons, many of the residents have helped with the details of staging the film in Victor’s remote location. “Support from the town has been amazing,” Jones-carson said. “And the historic time frame of Victor is the perfect fit for the story.”

As Victor’s nearby neighbor focuses on gambling as a tourist attraction, Victor strives for something differ-ent - sure, there’s that famous gold mine but the movie gig could be a keeper, especially if “carnival” is a hit with independent film fans.

“I’ve always tried to get movies here - it’s clean dollars, not like gold mining,” Sam morrison said. “It’s not cost-ing the town anything but is bringing money in. Tourism and movies are quiet.”

Top of the World Rodeo draws capacity crowds to Cripple Creek Highest rodeo with ‘altitude’ By Sonja Oliver Contributing writer

The grandstands at the Teller County Fairgrounds in Cripple Creek were fi lled to capacity with spectators over the week-end of June 12-14 for the third annual Top of the World Rodeo. Contenders competed in nine Colorado Professional Rodeo Asso-ciation sanctioned events, earning $11,000 in prize money and belt buckles for bull riding, bareback bronc busting, saddle bronc busting, team roping, tie-down roping, steer wrestling, barrel racing and mixed team roping.

Young kids were even given a chance to earn prizes including BB guns and belt buckles during the mutton busting event. On Friday evening, eight-time World Champion Cowboy Larry Mahan kicked off the weekend of festivities at the Wildwood Casino outdoor parking lot, singing with the Trucker’s Daughter, a Colorado- based country and western band. The kick-off party had set-up activity areas for corn hole games, horseshoes and teaching kids how to rope.

Saturday, June 13 opened with a parade down Bennett Avenue with the Ft Carson Mounted Patrol in the lead to present the fl ag. Following was the Ames Construction eight-horse Percheron Team with Grand Marshall Larry Mahan and Miss Top of the World Rodeo Queen Rachel Rooks.

The Pikes Peak Rodeo or Bust, Pikes Peak Rangerettes and Sweethearts of the West were among the participants in the parade and also during the rodeo.

The rodeo began following the Mut-ton Busting event for kids. The Percheron team paraded into the arena along with the Rangerettes and Sweethearts of the Rodeo. Grand Marshall Mahan led with a prayer and the National Anthem was sung by the Ft. Carson Fourth Infantry Division Band member. Rodeo clown J.D. Schultze kept the spectators laughing and the rodeo contestants safe, along with announcer Clay Eberhart.

Rodeo winners from the two-days of

events are as follows:Bareback Bronc Busting - David Strew-

Teller County thri� stores uniteFunk and Junk tour strategy shares customer baseBy Nick BurnaughContributing writer

Antique and thrift stores across Teller County have begun a cross-promotional campaign called the Teller County Weekend Funk and Junk Tour. This new strategy is an attempt to share the customer base by encouraging the success of each participating business. The tour will last until Labor Day.

Mark Webb, owner of the Twin Creek Trading Co. in Florissant, commented on the new approach.

Instead of competing with one another, Webb said, working together seemed like a positive business plan. By doing this, he said, the businesses can combine their advertis-ing budgets.

The flyers for the tour feature a map of Teller County, and the location of each busi-ness is marked by a red star. Instead of just stumbling upon one of the shops, Webb said, customers will be able to plan their day trips with a particular destination in mind.

One of the last businesses to join the tour was The Warehouse in Woodland Park, owned by Lynn Riedhart. Her business is only a few months old, opening on March 13. Before being sold, all the furniture at The Warehouse undergoes a thorough refurbishing process, Riedhart explains. Much of the refurbished furniture has been donated from the local community.

At this time, she said, all the profits from The Warehouse are donated to Teller County nonprofits, and customers can vote on the next recipient nonprofit. The first nonprofit to win was the Teller County Regional Animal Shelter.

The tour, Riedhart said, has given her an opportunity to familiarize herself with similar shops in the area. An added benefit of the tour, she said, is that businesses receive more referrals from other store owners, who may not carry the items customers are looking for.

Webb stresses the importance of keeping things local. For the purpose of the tour, he said, it’s important that participating shops acquire unique merchandise by supporting local artists and crafters.

“We don’t want shops that buy everything from wholesale companies,” Webb said. “Our main focus is letting people know that we have unique stuff in Teller County.”

Webb buys much of his merchandise from the local community, and he is also a craftsman himself, experienced in metal working, antique restoration and carpentry. But he eventually decided it would be better to sell his work in a store instead of constantly hauling his work to shows.

He bought his current store location in April 2014. In the years before then, the build-ing has seen many businesses come and go, serving once as a vehicle repair shop and later as a doughnut shop. Further adding to the store’s character is a trolley car that was built into the west side of the store.

His store is seasonal, operating primarily during the spring and summer months. Depending on how business goes this summer with the tour, Webb said, he’s considering expanding the group of participating businesses into Park County.

THROUGH JULY 31

DIARY EXHIBIT “The Roaring Twenties and a Young Girl’s Diary,” a temporary exhibit presented by the Ute Pass Historical Society, will be on display through July outside the Colorado Room on the third �oor of the Woodland Park Public Library, 218 E. Midland Ave., Woodland Park. The exhibit is based on entries in the diary of a girl who lived in a Green Mountain Falls cabin in the early 1920s. On her 11th birthday in 1921, she made her �rst entry, an indication of her fascination with the �apper movement of the time: “I sure wish I had my hair bobbed.” The girl, whose name was not written in the diary, eventually did get her hair bobbed. She made sure to record that milestone and other events in her life during the Roaring Twenties, speci�cally from 1921 to 1925, when the diary entries stop. Some 88 years later, the diary was discovered. In 2014, it was donated to UPHS. During transcription of the diary, clues to the girl’s identity began to surface. Her father, John, owned a car dealership in Oklahoma City, and she frequently mentioned friends and neighbors whose names were in the UPHS database. Eventually, her identity became clear. This exhibit reveals the girl’s name and features vintage clothing and other artifacts from the Roaring Twenties, including a �apper-style dress worn by a University of Colorado alumnus and a middy blouse made popular by the British Royal Family in the mid-19th century.

Heavy rains put damper on outdoor recreation Work days have been canceled due to the ground’s over-saturation By Nick Burnaugh Contributing writer

The heavy rains in May took a heavy toll on local hiking trails, affecting popu-lar destinations such as Garden of the Gods and Red Rock Canyon Open Space. Currently, the Colorado Springs Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services depart-ment is waiting to receive aid through the Federal Emergency Management Agency.

Molly Mazel, volunteer coordinator for the Rocky Mountain Field Institute, said many work days have been canceled be-cause of the ground’s over-saturation. Of-ten, Mazel said, hikers go around muddy parts of the trail. By doing this, hikers cre-ate non-designated paths, damaging off-trail vegetation and fragmenting wildlife grazing land, she said.

Mazel works with volunteers restor-ing and closing non-designated trails in Garden of the Gods. They decompact the soil, allowing them to plant seeds where vegetation has been trampled by hikers. But when the trails get too muddy, the restoration process is slowed down, she said.

Over the years, Mazel explains, much of the funding for trail maintenance has tapered off, diverted instead to disaster relief for wildfire damages. But, she adds, a lot of funding and support has come from the community through founda-tions and grants.

The wet weather has also affected climbers, said Shawn Connor, office man-ager for the Pikes Peak Alpine School. At Garden of the Gods especially he sand-stone rock absorbs moisture and the rock breaks easily. Speaking from experience, he would be hesitant to take climbers to Garden of the Gods given the wet condi-tions. According to RMFI Executive Di-rector Jennifer Peterson, some of the rock at Garden of the Gods is beginning to dry

out, but climbers are still advised to exer-cise caution.

Kurt Schroeder, park operations and development manager for the parks and recreation department, says over-satu-ration of the ground has left rain with no place to go. In late May, heavy rains washed down from the foothills, flood-ing the Red Rock Canyon Open Space, he said.

Volunteers from the RMFI and the Friends of Red Rock Canyon will be help-ing to clear debris from the park, Schro-eder said. Also on the agenda is the re-

structuring of a dam that broke in Sand Canyon. Originally built with a high ver-tical slope, he explains, there’s risk that a piece of the dam could fall off and hurt someone. For public safety, the dam will be laid back at a gentler slope.

As of now, Schroeder is hesitant to provide an opening date for the Red Rock Canyon Open Space.

“We know that everybody wants back in there for sure,” Schroeder said, “so we’re trying to take care of these life safe-ty issues and get it to the point where we can invite the public back in. But we’re

still going to have contractors and works groups in there for a good while because there was a lot of widespread damage.”

The preliminary damage assessment was completed by FEMA in early June, said David Deitemeyer, park planner for the parks and recreation department. The damage is expected to cost around $2.6 million for the parks and recreation department alone, he said. If aid were provided, FEMA would cover 75 percent of the cost, and local agencies would pay the remaining 25 percent.

Library fosters Kindle readers By Pat Hill [email protected]

To read or not to read a book on a Kin-dle, that’s the question for Brian Foster who won the e-Book in a drawing at the Rampart Range Library District.

Foster, not a regular user of the libraries in Woodland Park and Florissant, happened

to be in the library one day in April when he spotted and responded to a survey that asked 16 questions.

The survey is designed to determine how people use the library, including how they receive information about various programs.

Presto! Last week Foster’s name was drawn out of the proverbial hat by Perini & Associates, which is handling the survey

process for the district.It’s toss-up as to whether he’ll use the Kin-

dle or not. “I prefer to buy books,” he said.However, Foster uses the library to check

out books on tape, which he and his wife Margaret listen to when they travel to see their adult children in Dallas, Phoenix and Atlanta.

Whether hard copy or audio, Foster’s fa-

vorite author is David Baldacci.Results of the survey will be revealed at

the “Love Your Libraries Fiesta!” from 3 to 7 p.m. July 19 on the Patio at the Country Lodge in Woodland Park. Tickets are $10 per person and are available at the lodge and City Market. The proceeds benefi t the Ram-part Library District Foundation.

SALOME’S STARSFOR RELEASE WEEK OF JUNE 22, 2010

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) A plan you’ve kept on hold for a long time finally could be greenlighted. But in typical Aries form, you’ll need to be sure that everything is in place before you hit the “start” button.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Others might urge you to act more quickly on your ideas. But you’d be wise to follow your Bovine instincts and get more facts to bolster your position when you finally present it.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You might be tempted to accept the well-meaning offer of a friend to act as an intermediary in a dispute. But you know best what it’s about, and you can handle the challenge. Good luck.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Entertainment can play an important role this week. Enjoy some well-earned diversion with people you care about. Something espe-cially wonderful might come from this well-spent time.

LEO (July 23 to August 22) Catnaps and playtime are in order for Leos and Leonas who need to take some time off from their hectic schedules to restore their ener-gies and rebuild their mental muscles. Have fun.

VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Virgos will need to keep an open mind this week about choices that seem improbable. A closer study might well reveal pos-sibilities that might have been overlooked. Stay with it.

LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) A disappointing outcome of a well-intentioned effort should be seen as a lesson in how to do it right the next time. Note all your changes and have your new plan set up by week’s end.

SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Travel plans might need readjusting because of changes in the costs previously agreed to. Deal with the problem as quickly as possible to minimize any delays that might result.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Your honest approach to an unsettling experience draws ad-miration from others. Use their positive feedback to build support for your program to introduce needed changes.

CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Travel is strong in your aspect this week, and so is nostalgia! You might want to consider planning a trip to a place that holds some very special meaning for you. Bon voyage.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) A job-related situation could provide an opportunity you hadn’t con-sidered before. Look it over carefully and see where and how you can tailor it to fit your needs.

PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Showing strength as well as sympathy helps you deal with a difficult per-sonal matter. It also helps you set an example for others when it’s their turn to get involved in the situation.

BORN THIS WEEK: You have a way of making people feel comfortable without losing one whit of your own dignity in the process.

Shelf Road adopted by PPCAGroup preserves climbing routes throughout Pikes Peak regionBy Nick BurnaughContributing writer

For more than 20 years, the Rocky Mountain Field Institute has maintained access trails at Shelf Road near Cañon City. But as funding from the Bureau of Land Management has decreased, the RMFI is partially relying on the Pikes Peak Climber’s Alliance to maintenance climbing routes at Shelf Road. The RMFI will still be involved in some Shelf Road programs.

The PPCA is a nonprofit, volunteer-run organization that preserves climbing routes throughout the Pikes Peak region. The non-profit is just over a year old, made official in April 2014 when its bylaws were adopted.

In the past, climbers have had little to do with work done at Shelf Road, says PPCA Vice President Jes Meiris, so it seemed fit-ting that the PPCA should get climbers in-volved.

The RMFI’s involvement at Shelf Road has eased up, says RMFI Volunteer Coor-dinator Molly Mazel. As she explains, the RMFI is not a climbing organization, and its small staff is limited, which makes its partnership with the PPCA at Shelf Road an important asset.

“It’s really valuable to have the partner-ship of an organization that is dedicated to climbing in the Pikes Peak region ... “ Ma-zel said. “The climbing areas certainly need extra support, so it’s great to have the Pikes Peak Climbers Alliance.”

In late April, the PPCA hosted the Shelf Road Appreciation Weekend, during which volunteers worked at Cactus Cliff building retaining walls and drainages. Luckily, Mei-ris says, they were able to complete their work before the rains started in May.

Speaking in reference to parks such as Red Rock Canyon Open Space, Garden of the Gods and North Cheyenne Cañon, Mei-ris says the City of Colorado Springs has little to do with climbing, focusing instead on trail maintenance and groundwork. The PPCA handles the climbing aspect in city

parks.Recently at Garden of the Gods, one of

the PPCA board members led a group of volunteers who scrubbed bouldering chalk from the rocks. And once Red Rock Can-yon Open Space is reopened to the public (it was closed because of recent flooding), Meiris says the PPCA may lead a cleanup

group later this summer.As one of the founding members, Stew-

art Green wants the PPCA to create a “man-aged process” for popular climbing areas such as Garden of the Gods. A big problem in past years, he says, are climbers who indiscriminately place bolts in rock for-mations. This can create ethical problems

within the climbing community, and the PPCA helps facilitate discussions regarding these issues.

The PPCA is here to ensure climbers’ freedoms, Green says, it doesn’t want to create restrictions. Part of its purpose is to educate new climbers, he explains, so that they can become stewards of the land.

Richardson steps down as baseball coachLongtime educator will remain with the programBy Danny [email protected]

Cliff Richardson has stepped down as the varsity baseball coach at Woodland Park High School, but he is still very much involved with the program.

Richardson, who coached the varsity for four seasons, will remain with the pro-gram as the “C” squad coach. Richardson coached the “C” squad for nearly a decade prior to taking over as the varsity coach in 2012.

“I really enjoy introducing the game to the players and the way we play it and what it means to be Panther baseball,” Richard-son said.

Richardson actually made his decision to step down as the varsity coach in May. He talked with Woodland Park athletic direc-tor Michael DeWall about staying involved with the program at the “C” squad level.

“Maybe varsity is not the right place for me right now,” Richardson said. “I pretty much made the decision during the sea-son. I questioned if I was the right guy for the varsity program. Handling the parents and personalities of all the players can be a challenge.”

Richardson has a son, Garrett, who is going into eighth grade at Woodland Park Middle School. Richardson said he did not

want to influence his son’s baseball career in any other way than to be in more of a supportive role.

“I wanted to make sure that his high school career didn’t revolve around me,” Richardson said. “My son can have me as coach his freshman year and then move on up in the program if that is the direction he goes.”

Richardson directed the Panthers to an 8-10 record this spring. He teams were 36-40 and qualified for the postseason in 2013.

Richardson was planning on working with the younger players this summer, but the league the Panthers were playing in — not affiliated with the school — folded be-cause there was not enough interest.

Woodland Park mayor Neal Levy was supposed to run that team, while Woodland

Park principal Del Garrick was in charge of running the older team, just as he did in the summer of 2014.

But when the younger team folded, Gar-rick asked Levy to join him on the “varsity” staff.

Garrick was the head baseball coach at Woodland Park in the early 2000s, before stepping down to become the school’s ath-letic director. Garrick was replaced by Chris Winstead, who remained in the position through the 2011 season, when he left to coach at Rampart.

Levy has a son, Sam, who played on var-sity last year and will be a junior this sea-son. His youngest son, Lou, is also involved with the program. Levy’s oldest son, Max, played in the program for four seasons.

Like father, like son

� ree generations of the Vahsholtz family have been racing in climb

By Danny Summers [email protected]

Clint Vahsholtz was all of six years old in 1977 when he saw father, Leonard, compete in his fi rst Pikes Peak International Hill Climb. Leonard, driving a Gran Torino dubbed “the Red Sled,” won the fi rst of his 19 titles - his last in 2008 was in an exhibition race - over the next 31 years and retired as the all-time class champion in the famed race’s history.

Leonard held the record for most championships until 2012, when Clint raced to the top of “America’s Mountain in his 2008 Ford Mustang.

“My dad is the one who’s put Vahsholtz racing on the map,” Clint said. “He’s the guy that keeps everybody straight.”

Leonard, 66, moved to Woodland Park in 1963. During an impromptu drag race with a pal on Highway 67 in 1965, Leonard got the inspiration to become a great racer. Even though he lost that drag race - and $5 - to his friend, Leonard was destined to become one of the greatest drivers in the long history of the race that dates back to 1915; the second-oldest motor sports race in the United States.

“My dad is the ultimate owner,” Clint said.Clint, 44, will be gunning for his 22nd championship on Sunday, June 28, in the legend-

ary Open Wheel Class. But he won’t be the only Vahsholtz racing. Clint will be joined for the fi fth time by his 24-year-old son, Codie, who is competing in the 450 CC class on top of Leonard’s KTM.

Leonard, Clint and Codie have the most family titles (41) of anybody in Hill Climb his-tory. The Unser family - with the likes of Bobby, Al, Robby, Louie and the rest - held the title for years with 38.

Clint’s Hill Climb racing resume is unmatched by anyone in the race’s long history. He ran his fi rst race in 1992 in the motorcycle division and fi nished second to Brian An-derson. Clint came back the next year and won the fi rst of three consecutive motorcycle titles.

In 1996 Clint switched to cars and continued his winning streak. He continued to win every year until 2007 when a broken motor prevented him from reaching the 14,110-foot summit. His 14 consecutive class victories remains a Hill Climb record.

Clint bounced back in 2008 to win another class title and hasn’t lost since.Racing the mountain is one of the most rigorous things I’ve ever done,” Clint said. “It’s

not the cliffs that can kill you. It’s the elements. It’s the trees and trees and the sticks and the rocks and the boulders. You fi rst have to play with the mountain and then you have to play with your competition.”

Strange as it may sound, Clint didn’t decide to run in this year’s event until a few weeks ago. The Cripple Creek and Victor Gold Mining Company pulled its sponsorship of his vehicle due to the impending sale of the mine.

Leonard and Clint found enough sponsorship support from Phil Long Ford, Canyon Signs, Hammers Construction and Colorado Compressed Gasses - all based in Colorado Springs - to justify getting the 2013 Vahsholtz Open Wheel up and ready to go for another trip up Pikes Peak Highway.

“We’re bringing a knife to a gun show again,” Clint said with a smile. “We don’t have the money that some of these guys have, but every year we grow a little bit. We fi ne tune.

“I will be consistent. My crew will be consistent. We will be ready.”Clint won last year’s race with his best time ever of 9 minutes, 54.7 seconds.“I thought I would get into the high 9:30s but the road wasn’t there for me,” Clint said.

“I would love to see the road this year in the low 9s or 8s. That would be something.”Clint has been fastest in practice and is scheduled to lead off the Open Wheel group

sometime around noon.The Vahsholtz racing team plans to leave Woodland Park a little after 4 a.m. on June

28 to head up to the camping spot in the thick woods near the start line. Clint will set up with the other automobiles, while Codie will make his way over to the motorcycle area.

“Once we get up there we eat a little breakfast, get hydrated and get our minds in the game,” Codie said. “This is a different kind of a race. This isn’t something you experience everyday of your life.”

Codie has had the fastest time in practice and is scheduled to go off fi rst in his group around 8:30 a.m.

“When I’m at the starting line I’m running through the road in my mind,” Codie said. “When I get out on the track time slows down. It’s really relaxing, I’m confi dent. I’m doing what I’m prepared to do.”

Codie will reach top speeds of about 120 mph on the straight-aways at Picnic Grounds, Bottomless Pit, Ragged Edge, 19-mile and Devil’s Playground. Clint will hit more than 160 mph at those points of the race.

“You’re in high gear and it’s wide open,” Codie said with a smile. “There’s nothing else like it in the world.”

And there’s has not been a more successful racing family than the Vahsholtz’s in the 99-year history of the Hill Climb.

Woodland Park native Clint Vahsholtz has won a record 21 Pikes Peak In-ternational Hill Climb races. He is competing in the famed Open Wheel Class again this year. The 93rd run-ning of the Race to the Clouds is scheduled for Sunday, June 28. Photo by Danny Summers

Public NoticeMOUNTAIN MUTUAL WA 2015 Drinking Water Quality Report For Calendar Year 2014

Public Water System ID: CO0160350

Esta es información importante. Si no la pueden leer, necesitan que alguien se la traduzca.

We are pleased to present to you this year’s water quality report. Our constant goal is to provide you with a safe and dependable sup-ply of drinking water. Please contact DON HINDMAN at 719-689-2527 with any questions about the Drinking Consumer Confidence Rule (CCR) or for public participation opportunities that may affect the water quality.

General Information

All drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants. The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that the water poses a health risk. More information about contaminants and potential health effects can be obtained by calling the Environmental Protection Agency’s Safe Drinking Water Hotline (1-800-426-4791) or by visiting http://water.epa.gov/drink/contaminants.

Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. Immunocompromised persons such as persons with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV-AIDS or other immune system disorders, some elderly, and infants can be particularly at risk of infections. These people should seek advice about drinking water from their health care providers. For more information about contaminants and potential health effects, or to receive a copy of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by Cryptosporidium and microbiological contaminants call the EPA Safe Drinking Water Hotline at (1-800-426-4791).

The sources of drinking water (both tap water and bottled water) include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs, and wells. As water travels over the surface of the land or through the ground, it dissolves naturally occurring minerals and, in some cases, radioac-tive material, and can pick up substances resulting from the presence of animals or from human activity. Contaminants that may be present in source water include:

• Microbial contaminants: viruses and bacteria that may come from sewage treatment plants, septic systems, agricultural livestock operations, and wildlife.• Inorganic contaminants: salts and metals, which can be naturally-occurring or result from urban stormwater runoff, industrial or domestic wastewater discharges, oil and gas production, mining, or farming.• Pesticides and herbicides: may come from a variety of sources, such as agriculture, urban stormwater runoff, and residential uses.• Radioactive contaminants: can be naturally occurring or be the result of oil and gas production and mining activities.• Organic chemical contaminants: including synthetic and volatile organic chemicals, which are byproducts of industrial processes and petroleum production, and also may come from gas stations, urban storm water runoff, and septic systems.

In order to ensure that tap water is safe to drink, the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment prescribes regulations limiting the amount of certain contaminants in water provided by public water systems. The Food and Drug Administration regulations establish limits for contaminants in bottled water that must provide the same protection for public health.

Lead in Drinking Water

If present, elevated levels of lead can cause serious health problems (especially for pregnant women and young children). It is possible that lead levels at your home may be higher than other homes in the community as a result of materials used in your home’s plumbing. If you are concerned about lead in your water, you may wish to have your water tested. When your water has been sitting for several hours, you can minimize the potential for lead exposure by flushing your tap for 30 seconds to 2 minutes before using water for drinking or cooking. Additional information on lead in drinking water, testing methods, and steps you can take to minimize exposure is available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline (1-800-426-4791) or at http://www.epa.gov/safewater/lead.

Source Water Assessment and Protection (SWAP)

The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment has provided us with a Source Water Assessment Report for our water supply. For general information or to obtain a copy of the report please visit http://wqcdcompliance.com/ccr. The report is located under “Source Water Assessment Reports”, and then “Assessment Report by County”. Select TELLER County and find 160350; MOUNTAIN MUTUAL WA or by contacting DON HINDMAN at 719-689-2527. The Source Water Assessment Report provides a screening-level evaluation of potential contamination that could occur. It does not mean that the contamination has or will occur. We can use this information to evaluate the need to improve our current water treatment capabilities and prepare for future contamination threats. This can help us ensure that quality finished water is delivered to your homes. In addition, the source water assessment results provide a starting point for developing a source water protection plan. Potential sources of contamination in our source water area are listed on the next page.

Please contact us to learn more about what you can do to help protect your drinking water sources, any questions about the Drinking Water Consumer Confidence Report, to learn more about our system, or to attend scheduled public meetings. We want you, our valued customers, to be informed about the services we provide and the quality water we deliver to you every day.

Terms and Abbreviations

• Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) − The highest level of a contaminant allowed in drinking water.• Treatment Technique (TT) − A required process intended to reduce the level of a contaminant in drinking water.• Action Level (AL) − The concentration of a contaminant which, if exceeded, triggers treatment and other regulatory requirements.• Maximum Residual Disinfectant Level (MRDL) − The highest level of a disinfectant allowed in drinking water. There is convincing evidence that addition of a disinfectant is necessary for control of microbial contaminants.• Maximum Contaminant Level Goal (MCLG) − The level of a contaminant in drinking water below which there is no known or ex-pected risk to health. MCLGs allow for a margin of safety.• Maximum Residual Disinfectant Level Goal (MRDLG) − The level of a drinking water disinfectant, below which there is no known or expected risk to health. MRDLGs do not reflect the benefits of the use of disinfectants to control microbial contaminants.• Violation (No Abbreviation) − Failure to meet a Colorado Primary Drinking Water Regulation.• Formal Enforcement Action (No Abbreviation) − Escalated action taken by the State (due to the risk to public health, or number or severity of violations) to bring a non-compliant water system back into compliance.• Variance and Exemptions (V/E) − Department permission not to meet a MCL or treatment technique under certain conditions.• Gross Alpha (No Abbreviation) − Gross alpha particle activity compliance value. It includes radium-226, but excludes radon 222, and uranium.• Picocuries per liter (pCi/L) − Measure of the radioactivity in water.• Nephelometric Turbidity Unit (NTU) − Measure of the clarity or cloudiness of water. Turbidity in excess of 5 NTU is just noticeable to the typical person.• Compliance Value (No Abbreviation) – Single or calculated value used to determine if regulatory contaminant level (e.g. MCL) is met. Examples of calculated values are the 90th Percentile, Running Annual Average (RAA) and Locational Running Annual Average (LRAA).• Average (x-bar) − Typical value. • Range (R) − Lowest value to the highest value.• Sample Size (n) − Number or count of values (i.e. number of water samples collected).• Parts per million = Milligrams per liter (ppm = mg/L) − One part per million corresponds to one minute in two years or a single penny in $10,000.

• Parts per billion = Micrograms per liter (ppb = ug/L) − One part per billion corresponds to one minute in 2,000 years, or a single penny in $10,000,000.• Not Applicable (N/A) – Does not apply or not available.

Detected Contaminants

MOUNTAIN MUTUAL WA routinely monitors for contaminants in your drinking water according to Federal and State laws. The following table(s) show all detections found in the period of January 1 to December 31, 2014 unless otherwise noted. The State of Colorado requires us to monitor for certain contaminants less than once per year because the concentrations of these contaminants are not ex-pected to vary significantly from year to year, or the system is not considered vulnerable to this type of contamination. Therefore, some of our data, though representative, may be more than one year old. Violations and Formal Enforcement Actions, if any, are reported in the next section of this report.

Note: Only detected contaminants sampled within the last 5 years appear in this report. If no tables appear in this section then no contaminants were detected in the last round of monitoring.

It is possible that lead levels at your home may be higher than other homes in the community as a result of materials used in your home’s plumbing. If you are concerned about lead in your water, you may wish to have your water tested. When your water has been sitting for several hours, you can minimize the potential for lead exposure by flushing your tap for 30 seconds to 2 minutes before using water for drinking or cooking. Additional information on lead in drinking water, testing methods, and steps you can take to minimize exposure is available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline (1-800-426-4791) or at http://www.epa.gov/safewater/lead.

Source Water Assessment and Protection (SWAP)

The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment has provided us with a Source Water Assessment Report for our water supply. For general information or to obtain a copy of the report please visit http://wqcdcompliance.com/ccr. The report is located under “Source Water Assessment Reports”, and then “Assessment Report by County”. Select TELLER County and find 160350; MOUNTAIN MUTUAL WA or by contacting DON HINDMAN at 719-689-2527. The Source Water Assessment Report provides a screening-level evaluation of potential contamination that could occur. It does not mean that the contamination has or will occur. We can use this information to evaluate the need to improve our current water treatment capabilities and prepare for future contamination threats. This can help us ensure that quality finished water is delivered to your homes. In addition, the source water assessment results provide a starting point for developing a source water protection plan. Potential sources of contamination in our source water area are listed on the next page. Please contact us to learn more about what you can do to help protect your drinking water sources, any questions about the Drinking Water Consumer Confidence Report, to learn more about our system, or to attend scheduled public meetings. We want you, our valued customers, to be informed about the services we provide and the quality water we deliver to you every day.

Terms and Abbreviations

Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) − The highest level of a contaminant allowed in drinking water. Treatment Technique (TT) − A required process intended to reduce the level of a contaminant in drinking water. Action Level (AL) − The concentration of a contaminant which, if exceeded, triggers treatment and other regulatory requirements. Maximum Residual Disinfectant Level (MRDL) − The highest level of a disinfectant allowed in drinking water. There is convincing evidence that addition of a

disinfectant is necessary for control of microbial contaminants. Maximum Contaminant Level Goal (MCLG) − The level of a contaminant in drinking water below which there is no known or expected risk to health. MCLGs allow

for a margin of safety. Maximum Residual Disinfectant Level Goal (MRDLG) − The level of a drinking water disinfectant, below which there is no known or expected risk to health.

MRDLGs do not reflect the benefits of the use of disinfectants to control microbial contaminants. Violation (No Abbreviation) − Failure to meet a Colorado Primary Drinking Water Regulation. Formal Enforcement Action (No Abbreviation) − Escalated action taken by the State (due to the risk to public health, or number or severity of violations) to bring a

non-compliant water system back into compliance. Variance and Exemptions (V/E) − Department permission not to meet a MCL or treatment technique under certain conditions. Gross Alpha (No Abbreviation) − Gross alpha particle activity compliance value. It includes radium-226, but excludes radon 222, and uranium. Picocuries per liter (pCi/L) − Measure of the radioactivity in water. Nephelometric Turbidity Unit (NTU) − Measure of the clarity or cloudiness of water. Turbidity in excess of 5 NTU is just noticeable to the typical person. Compliance Value (No Abbreviation) – Single or calculated value used to determine if regulatory contaminant level (e.g. MCL) is met. Examples of calculated values

are the 90th Percentile, Running Annual Average (RAA) and Locational Running Annual Average (LRAA). Average (x-bar) − Typical value. Range (R) − Lowest value to the highest value. Sample Size (n) − Number or count of values (i.e. number of water samples collected). Parts per million = Milligrams per liter (ppm = mg/L) − One part per million corresponds to one minute in two years or a single penny in $10,000. Parts per billion = Micrograms per liter (ppb = ug/L) − One part per billion corresponds to one minute in 2,000 years, or a single penny in $10,000,000. Not Applicable (N/A) – Does not apply or not available.

Detected Contaminants MOUNTAIN MUTUAL WA routinely monitors for contaminants in your drinking water according to Federal and State laws. The following table(s) show all detections found in the period of January 1 to December 31, 2014 unless otherwise noted. The State of Colorado requires us to monitor for certain contaminants less than once per year because the concentrations of these contaminants are not expected to vary significantly from year to year, or the system is not considered vulnerable to this type of contamination. Therefore, some of our data, though representative, may be more than one year old. Violations and Formal Enforcement Actions, if any, are reported in the next section of this report. Note: Only detected contaminants sampled within the last 5 years appear in this report. If no tables appear in this section then no contaminants were detected in the last round of monitoring.

Fluoride: This is an alert about your drinking water and a cosmetic dental problem that might affect children under nine years of age. At low levels, fluoride can help prevent cavities, but children drinking water containing more than 2 parts per million (ppm) of fluoride may develop cosmetic discoloration of their permanent teeth (dental fluorosis). The drinking water provided by your community water system has a fluoride concentration above 2 parts per million (ppm), but below 4 parts per million (ppm). Dental fluorosis, in its moderate or severe forms, may result in a brown staining and/or pitting of the permanent teeth. This problem occurs only in developing teeth, before they erupt from the gums. Children under nine years of age should be provided with alternative sources of drinking water or water that has been treated to remove the fluoride to avoid the possibility of staining and pitting of their permanent teeth. You may also want to contact your dentist about proper use by young children of fluoride-containing products. Older children and adults may safely drink the water. Drinking water containing more than 4 parts per million (ppm) of fluoride (the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment’s drinking water standard) can increase your risk of developing bone disease. Your drinking water does not contain more than 4 parts per million (ppm) of fluoride, but we're required to notify you when we discover that the fluoride levels in your drinking water exceed 2 parts per million (ppm) because of this cosmetic dental problem. For more information, please contact us. Some home water treatment units are also available to remove fluoride from drinking water. To learn more about available home water treatment units, you may call NSF International at (1-877-8-NSF-HELP).

Additional Violation Information

Note: If any violation relates to failing to install adequate filtration or disinfection equipment or processes, or have had a failure of such equipment or processes then the water may be inadequately treated. Inadequately treated water may contain disease-causing organisms. These organisms include bacteria, viruses, and parasites, which can cause symptoms such as nausea, cramps, diarrhea, and associated headaches. Explanation of the violation(s) and the steps taken to resolve them:

NITRATE: Testing period was missed for 2014. MMWC already submitted test during 2015. This is a Tier 3 violation which is a minor violation. Testing period is now properly scheduled at MMWC.

LEAD & COPPER RULE: Testing period was changed to occur June 1, 2013 to September 30, 2013. MMWC tried to submit test on October 2, 2013 and was told by state to wait until next testing period (which will be June 1, 2014 to September 30, 2014).

This is a Tier 3 violation which is a minor violation. Changes in allowable testing period are now properly scheduled at MMWC. MOUNTAIN MUTUAL WA, PWS ID: CO0160350 2015 CCR Page 2 of 2

What Every Knee Arthritis Sufferer Should Know About This Often Successful Medical Treatment

The Advanced Medical Treatment Every Knee Arthritis Sufferer Needs To Know - Before Thinking About Knee Replacement Surgery

El Paso County - If you suffer with knee arthritis pain, you have probably already tried many treat-ments... especially count-less pain medications. Experienced doctors understand that, even though pain medications such as anti-inflammatory pain pills are part of the recommended early treat-ment plan for knee arthri-tis pain...they are rarely the answer. In most cases they have minimal results (if any) and have a laundry list of potential side effects. Some being serious and even life threatening.

Are There Any Better

Options? Thankfully, advance-ments in science and tech-nology come extremely fast. And now there is a very good option for knee arthritis to help relieve the pain. An option that a lot of knee arthritis suffer-ers have never heard of...and even worse... have not been properly informed about. Before we get into the actual treatment, please understand this... Osteo Relief Institute is a real medical clinic that has treated thousands of knee arthritis suffer-ers. Patients travel from all over the country to be treated at their clinic be-cause they want the best medical treatments avail-able. What you are about to discover is a REAL medi-cal treatment. Not a mira-cle cure you see on info-mercials or on the internet. Know this fact: There is no cure for arthritis. But there is this treatment that... when performed correctly and with the proper technology... has already helped thousands

Advanced Imaging Allows Doctors To Pin-Point Treatments And Relieve Knee Arthritis Pain

Science rescues knee arthritis sufferers? Research shows joint injections done without advanced imaging misses the joint about 30% of the time. Now doctors can put lubricating fluid directly into the arthritic joint that may alleviate pain and restore function to many.

HOW IT WORKS: With The Proper Advanced Imaging And Technology Joint Cushioning and Lubricating Medication is Placed Precisely In The Arthritic Knee Joint To Relieve Stiffness And Pain

of knee arthritis sufferers - possibly just like you. Even if you have heard of this treatment - or even tried it without good re-sults - please read this. You will find out why it may not have worked for you and how you may be able to get much better re-sults.

What is ThisTreatment?

This treatment is called viscosupplementation. And it has gained quite a bit of popularity in recent years and it has gotten mixed results for a couple of reasons. But before we get into that, here’s what you need to know about viscosup-plementation. When you have arthritis, you suffer a decrease in the cushioning and lubricating fluids in your knee. In oth-er words, your knee joint basically “dries up.” The lubricating fluid that decreases is called “synovial fluid.” Pharmaceutical com-panies (with the help of scientists) can now make natural synovial fluid gel-like compounds that, dur-ing viscosupplementation treatments...doctors can precisely introduce direct-ly into the knee and other joints. This helps replace the lu-bricating fluid to the knee joint - allowing it to move more freely and smoothly and often decreasing or even eliminating the pain.

What ResultsCan Be

Expected? Like all medical treat-ments, the results vary and can not be predicted. But many knee arthritis suffer-ers get dramatic results. It is not uncommon for pa-tients to either postpone knee replacement surgery for years... or even perma-nently cancel it.

But There Is A BIGProblem

The key is the treatment must be EXTREMELY PRECISE. If the injection is slightly off, the medica-tion will not get into the knee joint and the treat-ment will not work. That’s why the experts at Osteo Relief Institute use advanced digital im-aging so they can see the medicine going directly into the knee joint during the treatment. Research shows that doctors performing joint injections without imaging miss the joint as much as 30% of the time. If you have tried visco-supplementation without this special digital imaging without good results - this may be why. That’s why Osteo Relief Institute takes it even one step further. They do not just use one step process of advanced imaging during treatment - they use two in their “double confirma-tion” process. This is to ensure patients get the best possible results.

AnotherImportant

Factor Viscosupplementation medications also come in several different brands and chemical make-ups. Just like all medications, some people respond bet-ter to some than others. While many doctors only use one brand, the experts at Osteo Relief Institute use several and great effort is taken to figure out what the best one for YOU is. One last thing: The experts at Osteo Relief In-stitute have found that the earlier you start Viscosup-plementation the better. This is most likely be-cause the longer you wait - the more joint destruction takes place. That’s why Osteo Relief

is now seeing so many pa-tients as young as 45. Summary: If you have knee arthritis pain and have not tried Viscosup-plementation, you should look into it as soon as pos-sible. If you have tried it with-out good results, you may still be able to get great results with the proper im-aging and specific medica-tion

Who Should Try This

Treatment? Not everyone is a can-didate for this treatment. But if you are, there is a good chance you may re-lieve some... or possibly all of your pain. You are a potential candidate for this treat-ment if you have knee pain and have not gotten good results from anti-inflammatory medication or other common arthritis treatments. Especially if you have already tried viscosupple-mentation without good results. The best way to tell if you are a good candi-date for this treatment is to be screened by one of

the doctors at Colorado Springs, CO.

What To Do NextIf You Are In Pain:

Your Invitation Osteo Relief Institute offers a limited number of complimentary knee arthritis treatment screen-ings every month. These screenings are a way for knee arthritis sufferers to get some of their ques-tions answered and see if they are a candidate for this treatment. If you would like a complimen-tary screening, just call 719-323-6612 and tell the scheduling specialist who answers the phone, “I would like a complimen-tary knee arthritis screen-ing.” The screenings fill up fast every month. If you do not call in time to get one this month, the spe-cialist will schedule you for next month. This screening is no cost and no obligation. This treatment is cov-ered by many insurance plans and Medicare.

WARNING: This Treatment Can Fail When Done Without This Advanced Imaging
