Bank donates $5,000 to Monument Hill Kiwanis for July 4 parade By Frank Bittinger For the Tribune

Integrity Bank and Trust President Jim Wyss presented a $5,000 check to Mr. R.F. Smith, 4th of July parade director with Monument Hill Kiwanis Club at the club meeting on Saturday, May 30.

“We are eternally grateful for the synergy that continues to grow between MHK and IBT. Without this relationship, the 4th of July parade would not happen,” Smith said. In addition, Integrity Bank will provide man-power to work the parade by volunteering its Colorado Springs area employees to staff

high school parking lots for parade specta-tor parking. Brad Crabtree and Nikki Wetzel of Integrity Bank contributed to the plan-ning of the parade.

Smith went on to say that “Integrity Bank and Trust has been far and away the driving force behind the Monument Hill Kiwanis effort for the Monument 4th of July parade – IBT provides the fuel and Monument Hill Kiwanis provides the muscle.”

Monument Hill Kiwanis, an affi liate of Kiwanis International, is a community ser-vice organization that helps the youth in the Tri-Lakes community and performs various community service projects.The parade is

conducted as a nonprofi t operation.The Monument Hill Kiwanis 4th of July

parade will be held on Saturday, July 4 in downtown Monument, beginning at 9:30 a.m. with the Children’s Parade, open to all children. The main parade begins about 10 a.m. and includes fl oats, bands, veter-ans units, fi re trucks, equestrian units, lo-cal church and school organizations — an event for folks of all ages. This year’s theme is “A New Birth of Freedom,” commemorat-ing the 150th anniversary of the end of the Civil War.

The Tri-Lakes 4th of July celebration has grown over time with more than 25,000

spectators each year. Exciting community events include a barn dance on July 3, the 34th Annual Palmer Lake July 4th Fun Run, a pancake breakfast at St. Peter Catholic Church, the parade, the Tri-Lakes Cham-ber of Commerce Street Fair in downtown Monument, and the Monument Music Fes-tival featuring several area bands.

Heavy rains put damper on outdoor recreationWork days have been canceled due to the ground’s over-saturationBy Nick BurnaughContributing 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.

Homes for Our Troops awards adapted home to injured soldier By For the Tribune

On Saturday, June 20, the national non-profi t organization, Homes for Our Troops, awarded a home to Army Sergeant Matthew Spang, who was injured while serving in Af-ghanistan. The Key Ceremony was held at 17885 Sierra Way, in Monument at 10 a.m.

On July 12, 2011, Spang was on a route clearance mission with the 130th Engineers when his vehicle was hit by two improvised explosive devices. The subsequent blast resulted in the loss of both legs below the knees and severe damage to his right hand.

Spang’s home features more than 40 major special adaptations such as widened doorways for wheelchair access, a roll-in shower, and kitchen amenities that include pull-down shelving and lowered counter-tops. The home will also alleviate the mo-bility and safety issues associated with a traditional home, including navigating a

wheelchair through narrow hallways or over thresholds, riding on carpets, or reach-ing for cabinets that are too high. All costs for the home will be covered by Homes for Our Troops and its network of donors, supporters and corporate partners. Kirella Homes is the build partner for the project.

President/CEO of Homes for Our Troops Tim McHale said it’s an honor and privilege to serve the Veterans who have sacrifi ced for our freedom and independence. “We at Homes for Our Troops do not believe giving a home to a severely injured Veteran is char-ity. We believe it is a moral obligation of our society. They fought to protect our freedom and independence, and we are now giving them back some freedom and indepen-dence by building them a specially adapted home.”

Temporary code exceptions for Black Forest set to expire Sta� report

The Board of El Paso County Com-missioners, during its regularly sched-uled meeting on Tuesday, June 30, will discuss the scheduled expiration of temporary exceptions to the El Paso County Land Development Code that were put in place to encourage recov-ery efforts in the Black Forest area.

Following the 2013 Black Forest Fire, the BoCC enacted a one-year suspension of certain provisions of the Code to assist property owners in that area who were working to rebuild.

The one-year suspension was en-acted in 2013 and then extended to a second year in 2014 with the recom-mendation of county departments and the support of the Pikes Peak Re-gional Building Department.

If no further action is taken, it will

expire next month.The Black Forest Fire began on

June 11, 2013. The 14,280-acre blaze destroyed 488 homes and forced the evacuation of 41,000 residents. Two Black Forest residents lost their lives in the historic disaster.

The temporary suspension of codes has allowed residents who are rebuilding to live on their properties in recreational vehicles or other tem-porary structures during the construc-tion process.

It has also allowed reconstruction at existing locations through a stream-lined and faster permit process. Dur-ing the past two years, site plan ap-proval has been granted for 291 homes and 234 replacement homes have been completed with another 40 un-der construction.

Residents of the Black Forest who

are impacted by the temporary sus-pension of those Code requirements are encouraged to attend the June 30 meeting and provide input to the commissioners on the scheduled ex-piration of those temporary Code ex-ceptions.

Meetings of the Board of County Commissioners are held in the Com-missioners Hearing Room at Centen-nial Hall, 200 S. Cascade Ave. in down-town Colorado Springs.

Meetings of the Board of County Commissioners can be viewed live on line at www.elpasoco.com by clicking on the link in the lower-third of the left had column which is labeled live meetings at Centennial Hall.

Meetings are also rebroadcast the following evening at 10 p.m. on Com-cast channel 17, the Pikes Peak Library District channel.

No commissioners meeting Tuesday or Thursday Sta� report

Because of scheduling confl icts the Tuesday, June 23 and Thursday, June 25, meetings of the Board of El Paso County Commission-

ers have been canceled. The next regularly sched-uled meeting of the Board will be at 9 a.m. on Tues-day, June 30th, in the Cen-tennial Hall Auditorium, 200 S. Cascade Avenue.

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

himself, noted that is “It is the first respon-sibility of every citizen to question author-ity.”

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 Professional Journalists.

I have always considered it a noble pro-fession with a lot of responsibility.

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

“James Osnowitz, 23, a Pueblo Star-Jour-nal and Chieftain employee, died when his car crashed through the barricade at the scene of flooding, 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, Doug-las County, Thursday. James Edward Osnow-itz, a summer em-ployee of the Pueblo Chieftain and Star-Journal, was found by skin divers. Because officials of the Doug-las County Sheriff ’s Office 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 Hospi-

tal and then to the Law Mortuary pending transfer to Pueblo. Osnowitz 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 Pennsylvania School of Journalism. The Osnowitz car apparently crashed through a barricade and he was trapped inside by flooding waters Wednes-day, according to the report.”

The Committee to Protect Journalists identifies 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 aspir-ing 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 people 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 confrontational 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 up-right 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 correct 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.

� e summer game takes center stage Now that the National Hockey League

and National Basketball Association sea-sons have officially ended - hats off to the Chicago Blackhawks and Golden State War-riors, 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), basketball (college and pro), and hockey - baseball has the longest season. It begins in mid-February, when spring training camps open in Florida and Arizona, and ends in late October - 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 Av-alanche, 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 variants of baseball, notably “town ball,” played primarily in Philadelphia, and the “Massachusetts Game,” played in New England.

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

most of the stron-gest clubs remained those based in the northeastern part of the country. In its 12-year history as an amateur league, the Brooklyn At-lantics won seven championships, establishing them-selves as the first true dynasty in the sport, although, the New York Mutuals were widely con-sidered 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 ballooned to over 400 members, including some clubs from as far away as San Fran-cisco 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 Excel-sior, received compensation, either secretly or indirectly. In 1866, the NABBP investi-gated 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 profes-sional category for the 1869 season. Clubs desiring to pay players were now free to

declare itself professional.The Cincinnati Red Stockings were

the first to declare that they were openly professional, 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 perfect 65-0 record; the only perfect season in professional baseball history. This was the first 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 first 24 games of the 1870 season before losing 8-7 in eleven innings to the Brook-lyn Atlantics in Brooklyn on June 14. The Red Stockings remained one of the few strongest teams on the field, losing only six games, but attendance 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 No-vember 15. Wright played center field and coordinated the team defense, a novelty from any position. 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.

In Loving Memory

Old Bill DiesIn April, 1931, Old Bill died in Colo-

rado 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 color-ful kin. He would have been 81, had he lived another sixty 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, 1861. They landed in Denver, but he went on up to Idaho Springs, having prospected 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 set-tling into ranching. His two sons, being 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 eventu-ally became 1000 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 filed a claim in Denver on the property, just in case!

This got his brother interest-ed, 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 many on his visits to Colorado City for supplies. This was the start of his nick-name. 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, due to 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 first 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 his-tory would have said about him instead of his colorful brother.

Honor America June 14 through July 4.

The pledge was officially designated as the “Pledge of Allegiance” to the flag by Public Law 287 approved by Congress on Dec. 28, 1945. June 14, 1954, was declared Flag Day by President Dwight Eisenhower when it was signed into law and the words “under God” were added to the pledge.

A short biography of Monument: Mon-ument was first settled by pioneers from Iowa in the late 1860s. It was named Henry Station after Henry Limbach. Gen. William J. Palmer suggested it be renamed Monu-ment because of the natural sandstone formation he saw when driving to Henry Station from Colorado Springs. Monument was incorporated as a town June 2, 1879. It is the fourth oldest incorporated town in Colorado. For more information on the early history of Monument, pick up an upcoming copy of “Through the Years in Monument, Colorado” by Lucille Lavelett.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

— Editor’s note: Castlewood Canyon was a different flood. Earlier. It occurred on Aug. 3, 1933. The dam broke then. I-25, from my research, was destroyed in several places in 1965. Most severely, I think in the Larkspur area, but several destroyed and damaged bridges all the way up to Colfax, at least, in Denver, on the South Platte watershed. Major damage all the way out in Kansas. At the same time, severe flooding in Colorado Springs, more tornadoes down in Foun-tain, Pueblo, because they commonly get hit. A young reporter for the Pueblo Chieftain lost his life in Larkspur in 1965 when he went into East Plum Creek off a bridge near Larkspur.

Dear Editor:I read with interest your columns in

the Tribune dated June 17, 2015, espe-cially the article titled as the subject reads above.

I am a U.S. military retiree, but my family had moved to Colorado Springs in April of 1963.

By 1965, I was in the summer be-tween my first and second grades in elementary school. While I do not recall days and days of rain (it has been almost 50 years since then), I do recall my dad, who was returning from temporary duty with the military, not being able to return to Colorado Springs by way of what must have been a relatively new Interstate 25. He had to get on a bus that

drove him from Denver to Limon, then to Colorado Springs by way of Highway 24 and Platte Avenue, and I was told that the highway between Denver and the Springs had been flooded.

As I grew up, I recall my visits to and past Denver marked by thoughts of the flooding where I-25 runs immediately to the east of the South Platte, before you get to the downtown or even Sixth Avenue or Auraria Parkway exits, as I believe I-25 was also inundated at that location.

As a father of two young boys when I returned to the area in 2007, and tak-ing day trips up to Castlewood Canyon, we have observed the dam there that was destroyed by the flooding of either Plum or Cherry Creek, and I believe this occurred with the same storm system that you mentioned. Or did this happen much earlier?

Since there was no mention of the flooding of I-25 in 1965 in your article, would you be able to confirm that this also occurred with the same storm out-break as what your article describes?

Thanks very much for an interesting read.

Christopher Brooks, Colorado Springs/Monument

Monument woman named top recyclerMonument resident Barb Sailer was

recently named the top West regional winner in the Entenmann’s Little Bites Regional All Stars recycling contest sponsored by Entenmann’s Little Bites and TerraCycle. Sailer will receive upcy-cled prizes and $100 to donate towards the charity of her choice.

Between February and April 2015 contestants had to send used Enten-mann’s Little Bites pouches to Terra-Cycle for recycling. Five winners were selected from five different regions around the country. The collected waste will be recycled into a variety of prod-ucts such as picnic tables, park benches and trash cans.

TerraCycle’s recycling programs, known as Brigade programs are free and open to any individual or organization. For every used piece of packaging sent to TerraCycle, collectors earn points toward charity gifts or cash donations to any school or non-profit of their choice. The Entenmann’s Little Bites Pouch Brigade has collected over 750,000 units and paid more than $17,000 to charity.

For more information about Ter-raCycle and how to get involved with

reducing the amount of non-recyclable waste that gets sent to landfills, or the Entenmann’s Little Bites Pouch Brigade, visit www.terracycle.com.

About TerraCycleFounded in 2001, TerraCycle, Inc., is

The collected waste is reused, upcycled or recycled into a variety of affordable, sustainable consumer products and in-dustrial applications. Each year, across 21 countries, TerraCycle collects and repurposes billions of pieces of waste, donating millions of dollars to schools and charities in the process. TerraCycle is the subject of a new half-hour com-edy, ‘Human Resources,’ on Pivot TV. Season two airs August 2015.

Tri-Lakes Views introduces ARTSites 2015Dozen new sculptures installed last week in Monument, Palmer LakeSta� report

These are only three of the 12 new sculptures installed on Thursday, June 18, in celebration of ARTSites 2015. Tri-Lakes Views will be introduced the artists from this new installation during AR-THOP from 3-8 pm at the Bliss Studio and Gallery in Monument.

This year, ARTSites has again expanded locations. “Boulevard” by artist Joshua Toone and “Prin-cess Ayer” by Victoria Patti will be installed outside Tri-Lakes Cen-ter for the Arts in Palmer Lake. “Winged Chair” also by Victo-ria Patti, will be outside the new Chamber of Commerce location (formerly Monument Town Hall) while “Matriarchal Moon Crea-ture” by Reven-Marie Swanson and “Evolution of Passion” by Jodie Bliss will be on pedestals at the Santa Fe Trailhead off Sec-ond Street. “Early Bird” by artist Ruth Burink is at 143 Washington St. The very first pedestals ever installed for ARTSites at Monu-ment’s new Town Hall will host “The Investigators” by Ronnie Walker and “Three Golden Flow-ers” by Michael Mladjan. The Sculpture Garden at the District 38 Administration Building will have 4 new sculptures:

“Into the Groove” by Ronnie Walker; “Repose” by Jane Rankin; “Calla Lily” by Jason LaBrash; and ”Aura” by Harold Link. All sculp-tures will remain on display for one year.

The ARTSites 2015-2016 Map showing these and over 50 loca-tions of public art in the Tri-Lakes area will be ready for distribution in early July. Maps are available at the Tri-Lakes Chamber of Com-merce and in many local shops.

Richard Pankratz and Sky Hall try to get some leverage on Pankratz’s piece near ‘Big Red.’

Art goes up, and some comes down. Swanson’s “Aura” comes down in park near ‘Big Red’ with help from Boggs cutting torch and town crew with a back hoe.

Other pieces were installed Thursday at locations around Monument and Palmer Lake including these at the Chamber o�ce, and Tri-Lakes Center for the Arts.

NEWS IN A HURRY National Homeland Defense Foundation assumes new name

Established in 2004, the National Homeland Defense Foundation was formed as a non-partisan, nonprofi t forum for the United States response to the presence of terrorist threats.

Since its inception, NHDF has provided a public forum for the discussion and presentation of various homeland defense and security issues and solutions. The foundation also hosted the annual National Symposium on Home-land Security and Defense for United States Northern Command for nearly a decade, as well as supported edu-cational events, including the National Security Innova-tion Competition and Thought Leadership Conference.

In 2012, NHDF expanded its services and changed its mission to include a broader scope of work and provide support for defenders of the homeland – military veterans and fi rst responders.

As part of that new mission, NHDF reached an agree-ment with Pikes Peak Area Council of Governments to establish and operate Peak Military Care Network, which provides services to and partners with other agencies to meet the holistic care needs of military members, veterans and families in the Pikes Peak region.

Since then, supporting Peak Military Care Network ac-tivities has become the focal point of the organization. To refl ect that transition, NHDF’s Board of Directors decided to change NHDF’s name to Peak Military Care Network.

“NHDF has contributed greatly to Homeland Security matters over the last decade, with lasting impacts to the nation,” said retired Army Lt. Gen. Ed Anderson, former president of NHDF and Chair of the PMCN Board of Directors.

“The NHDF/PMCN Board sees addressing the needs of our military, veteran and fi rst-responder community as a critical focus moving forward. By changing our name to the Peak Military Care Network, we will be able to con-centrate our identity and efforts on the collaborative and coordinating work of PMCN in order to serve our home-land defenders and their families.”

At least one in four residents of the Pikes Peak region

is a former or current member of the military, making the area home to one of the highest concentrations of service members in the nation.

PMCN connects the needs of the community’s mili-tary service members, veterans and their families to the highest-quality resources by providing a central source for information, navigation and integrated services.

In turn, PMCN’s partner agencies are committed to un-derstanding military and veteran culture and the unique challenges faced by service members, veterans and their families, working together to meet the needs of individu-als and families to provide support for the military and veteran community.

About Peak Military Care NetworkPeak Military Care Network supports collaboration

among community, military and veteran service providers to assist those providers and service members, veterans, and their families in identifying resources and streamlin-ing access to services to meet their needs.Connecting individuals and families to information and the highest quality resources, PMCN facilitates seamless transitions between service providers by providing a central source for information, navigation, and integrated services.

PMCN and its partner agencies offer a broad range of information and assistance to support the whole indi-vidual and family, including advocacy, behavioral health, child welfare and family support, crisis intervention, education, employment and workforce readiness, medi-cal and physical health, social services, and transition and reintegration.

In addition, PMCN provides training and information-sharing opportunities to partner agencies to ensure community-based agencies understand the unique needs of the military and veteran community and are aware of available resources (including military and VA services) to keep individuals and families out of crisis and improve health and well-being.

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.

Calhoun takes center stage at College Football LuncheonAir Force Football coach in ninth season at helm of FalconsBy Danny [email protected]

Baseball has its hot stove league dur-ing the winter months when fans and members of the media talk about off-season trades and free agent signings.

The Pikes Peak region has it football version of hot stove each June during the Colorado Springs Sports Corporation College Football Luncheon.

This year’s event took place June 16 when coaches from the state’s top five programs gathered at the Doubletree by Hilton.

The main attraction - as he usually is - was Air Force Academy coach Troy Cal-houn. The personable Calhoun, who lives in Black Forest, is in his ninth season at the helm of the Falcons. A 1989 graduate of the school - he was at the Academy the same time as El Paso County Commis-sioner and Senatorial candidate Darryl Glenn - Calhoun is one of the most high-ly respected coaches in the nation.

He strolled into the Doubletree a little after 11 a.m. on June 16 and immediately commanded a presence. Local media members and those from other parts of the state flocked to Calhoun like bees to honey hoping to get a good sound bite or insight into how he feels this season will go for the Falcons.

In January, Calhoun and Air Force Air Force Academy football coach Troy Calhoun, left, is entering his ninth season with the Falcons. IN 2014, Calhoun guided Air Force to a 10-3 record and another bowl victory. Photo courtesy of Air Force Academy Calhoun continues on Page 21

The awards keep coming for Smith and OdenbaughLewis-Palmer star volleyball player and coach honoredBy Danny [email protected]

It was a double-double for Lewis-Palmer High School star volleyball player Alexa Smith and Rangers’ Susan Odenbaugh.

Smith was recently named the 2014-15 National High School Coaches Association (NHSCA) National Player of the Year, while Odenbaugh was named the NHSCA Nation-al Coach of the Year.

“For Alexa and me to receive these honors is quite spe-cial, but both of us would agree that both awards can be attributed to the hard work, selflessness, and dedication of the entire team,” Odenbaugh said. “These are team awards and are not solely individual accolades.

“At Lewis-Palmer, we are blessed with incredibly gifted athletes who work hard on and off season.”

Smith, who graduated in May and will attend Purdue University on an athletic scholarship this fall, carried a 4.0 weighted GPA and led the Rangers to a MaxPreps “mythi-cal” national championship in 2014.

Smith helped the Rangers to a 29-0 record and a second consecutive Class 4A state championship last fall. She had 362 kills while recording a .519 kill percentage and .393 hit-ting percentage.

The Colorado High School Athletic Association (CHSAA) named her its 4A Player of the Year. She was also named the

MaxPreps state and National Player of the Year.This year alone she was also named Colorado’s Gatorade

Player of the Year, Volleyball Magazine’s High School Player of the Year, Colorado Sports Hall of Fame High School Fe-male Athlete of the Year, and the Sportswomen of Colorado High School Volleyball Player of the Year. Smith also played in the 2014 Under Armour All-American Volleyball Match in Oklahoma City.

Smith is only the second Colorado volleyball player to receive the NHSCA award. In 2010, Morgan Broekhuis of Colorado Springs Christian School was honored.

“For Alexa to have been named the NHSCA Volleyball Player of the Year is the culmination of four amazing years at L-P,” Odenbaugh said. “Her character, leadership, volley-ball prowess, and her relentless pursuit to keep improving are the reasons why she has been acknowledged by so many different organizations as the best player in the nation.

“What most people do not realize is the countless time that Alexa has devoted to her high school and club teams and to the women’s youth national teams to perfect her skills. She has made so many sacrifices to develop skills that enable her to perform at such an elite level, and she will continue to pursue those same goals at Purdue.”

The 2014 season was an incredible year for the Rang-ers. Under Odenbaugh’s guidance the team sported an overall set record of 83-5.

“It is because of my team’s success that I was named as Coach of the Year,” Odenbaugh said. “This award really be-longs to (the girls). It is certainly a reflection of the talented

agreed to restructure his contract for a five-year deal and also a bump in pay. The new five-year extension keeps Cal-houn in Colorado Springs through the 2019 season, and a $25,000 annual in-crease in pay to $850,000 per year. Cal-houn is the highest paid federal employ-ee in the state.

This new deal replaces a previous fi ve-year deal that Calhoun signed before the 2013 season, so the fi rst year of the restruc-tured contract began in 2014.

Air Force is coming off its sixth-ever 10-win season, and the fi rst under Calhoun. A win over Western Michigan in the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl nearly had them being ranked in the fi nal polls.

Calhoun has led the Falcons to six bowl games, with three wins. But after winning nine games in 2010 his win total decreased each of the next three years to seven, six and then tying a program worst two wins in 2013. The turnaround in 2014 to winning 10 games was the biggest turnaround in Air Force football history.

Calhoun has been rumored for various coaching jobs, both college and NFL, dur-ing his time at Air Force, so an extension helps thwart off some of those suitors; spe-cifi cally with the amount of openings in the NFL.

Calhoun has posted a 59-44 record as Falcons head coach. He quarterbacked Air Force from 1985-88.

Calhoun keeps a busy schedule. Last week he ran a commuter football camp

at the Academy for kids ages 8-18. The fee was $595 for a boarder and $395 for a com-muter.

There were two practice sessions each day; one for offense, and one for defense. There were also fi lm and weight room ses-sions for older campers.

As always, the emphasis was on individ-ual fundamentals of the game - the same kind his falcons rely on to overcome the athleticism and strength they generally give away to the opposition. There were also some group and team activities throughout the week. The entire Falcon coaching staff was actively coaching all age groups.

Calhoun was joined at the Sports Corp. luncheon by new Colorado State head coach Mike Bobo; Colorado State Uni-versity-Pueblo head coach John Wristen; University of Colorado head coach Mike MacIntyre; and University of Northern Col-orado head coach Earnest Collins.

Bobo addressed CSU’s new $220 mil-lion stadium that will be ready in time for the 2017 season. Calhoun talked about Air Force’s possible $30 million upgrades to its 53-year-old stadium in the coming years.

Air Force’s home football schedule this fall includes fi ve games with undetermined start times and under the control of ESPN. Those games might wind up kicking off at noon or as late as 8:30 p.m.

But there is a trade off. They could bring bonus money of $500,000 if selected for ESPN or ESPN2, or they could be shuffl ed to online-only ESPN3.

The Falcons have no say in the matter.Air Force played three games last sea-

son with 7:30 p.m. start times. They lost all three. The Falcons’ 10 victories came with daytime kickoffs.

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.

More Tri-Lakes area athletes named to all-state teamsPikes Peak Hill Climb is June 28By Danny [email protected]

The Colorado High School Ac-tivities Association released more of its all-state teams last week. Several Tri-Lakes area athletes made the lists.

In Class 4A baseball, Lewis-Palmer junior Paul Tillotson and senior Brian Tims were named to the first time, while teammate Co-lin Cicere (a senior) was named to the second team.

Discovery Canyon was repre-sented by senior Jacob Hein.

The 4A all-state girls’ soccer first-team included Lewis-Palmer sophomore Bri Alger and junior Sarah Lyons, and The Classical Academy junior Aleesa Muir.

The second-team had Discov-ery Canyon senior Jamie Keith and Palmer Ridge senior Macken-zie Gouner.

HILL CLIMB IS SUNDAY, JUNE 28

The 93rd running of the famed Pikes Peak International Hill Climb takes place this Sunday, June 28.

The field includes 75 cars and 70 bikes.

Among those from the Tri-Lakes area competing in this year’s event are Monument’s Christopher Lennon (Pikes Peak Challenge Vintage, 1973 Porsche 911 RSR); Bob Boileau (Time At-tack 2, 2004 BMW M3); and Palm-er Lake’s Dan Elders (Pikes Peak Middleweights-motorcycles, 2008 Suzuki GSXR 600).

TAKING THE LEAD FROM THE LITTLE GUYS

CHSAA last week recommend-ed multiple changes to its post-season 5A football format.

Included in the recommenda-tion is the use of an RPI (Ratings Percentage Index) system to set the playoff field; the move from a 32-team to a 16-team playoff field; balancing out the confer-ence alignment structure via a waterfall system; champions of those conferences automatically qualify for the playoffs.

A special committee voted 5-2 in favor of the recommendation. It marks a major shift in philoso-phy for the sport.

Class 5A has had a 32-team playoff field since 2006, and that 32-team field had a number of vo-cal supporters. But the waterfall system, which would place teams into conferences based upon their RPI performance over the previ-ous two years, would completely change conference structure.

CHSAA has tested data for the RPI over the past three seasons in 5A, 4A (which includes Palmer Ridge), 3A (which includes Lewis-Palmer, The Classical Academy and Discovery Canyon) and 2A. It consistently shows that the ranking of the RPI system closely matches playoff results.

The RPI system encourages teams to have a good strength-of-schedule. This should help the top-end teams who have strug-gled in the past to find opponents.

The move to a 16-team playoff field for 5A also means the return to a 10-game regular season.

The best 16 teams qualify for the postseason under this system.

Leonard signs Rockies contract; o� to Boise�e 2011 Palmer Ridge graduate is playing for the Boise HawksBy Danny [email protected]

Steven Leonard is now prop-erty of the Colorado Rockies. But he will be calling Boise home for the summer.

The 2011 Palmer Ridge High School graduate signed his pro-fessional contract with Colora-do last week in Denver during a large signing ceremony at Coors Field.

Leonard, who was selected by the Rockies in the 23rd round of this month’s amateur draft, was joined at Coors Field by his parents, Rick and Lupe, and nu-merous other family members

and friends.“The Rockies told us it was

probably the most people they’ve had come in to watch a signing,” Lupe Leonard said. “It was so much fun and such an honor. We took lots of pictures and got a tour.”

Leonard, a catcher, will be-gin his professional career with Boise Hawks of the short sea-son Class Single-A Northwest League.

Boise opened its season June 18 with a 3-1 victory over Tri-City. Leonard did not play, how-ever, because he had not com-pleted taking all of his physical exams.

According to Lupe, her son could play multiple positions for the Hawks.

“They talked to him about playing outfield,” Lupe Leonard said. “He told them wherever

they need him is fine with him.”Most of the Boise players are

20 to 22 years of age. Leonard is 22.

The Hawks are managed by Frank Gonzales, whom Leonard is familiar with from his days playing travel ball.

“We plan to go to Boise in July to see a few games,” Lupe Leonard said. “We’re really look-ing forward to seeing Steven play.”

If Leonard progresses the normal route - avoiding injuries or other setbacks - he could be promoted to low Single-A Ashe-ville of the South Atlantic League or high Single-A Modesto of the California League for the 2016 season.

“Steven is going to work hard like he always has,” Lupe Leon-ard said. “I know he can do it. It’s just a matter of staying healthy.”
