Olympic Hall of Fame. Provide list to state
of businesses in the Regional Tourism Zone.
According to the terms of the state action, all four
must be completed or the deal will be canceled and
Colorado Springs would have to refund tax revenue.
The fine print indicates that plenty of work lies
ahead, starting with multiple conditions that must
be met in 120 days before the EDC gives its final
approval.
Among those requirements: The city must establish governing entities to oversee each project,
and work on a contract with the U.S. Olympic
Committee regarding use of the USOC’s name,

considers final resolution for
moving forward with City for

Pam Shockley-Zalabak, UCCS chancellor:
“This truly is a transformational moment for our community and
for our community’s university. It shows that we as a city are resilient and moving forward. We are not a stagnant community. It’s
time now to move forward and maximize this opportunity. We
will do our part. It’ll mean another [construction] crane on North

build and operate the U.S. Olympic Museum and
Hall of Fame, as well as provide a shuttle service
to help provide access for visitors.
Other specific benchmarks must be met, as part
of the agreement between Colorado Springs and the
state commission, before construction can begin.
The most notable of those stipulations will involve
the Sport and Event Center, planned as a 10,000-seat

projects begins upon satisfaction
of specific requirements, funding
and milestones for each.

Infrastructure completed: 500foot iconic pedestrian bridge, Wall

structured parking, streetscape
improvements, utility upgrades.
Chris Jenkins, Nor’wood Development Group:
“Wow, what a day! This will be a launch pad for our community. ...
In cities trying to change, attitude is the first thing that changes.
With this, the attitude is changing now, and with that comes new
excitement.”

Before that project can break ground, organizers
must submit paperwork documenting that Colorado
Springs has official agreements to host, in each of
the facility’s first two years of operation, “at least 20

Dennis Hisey, chairman, county commissioners:

2017 — Air Force Academy
Visitors Center opens.
2019 — Deadline for start of
construction and/or substantial progress
on each project. Organizers hope
for full completion of all phases
well before that.
(Dates are projections based on the city’s application
and the state EDC responses.)
“I thought about what we could live with, and what we could not
live with. We can live with this. But now it won’t be just we the
county moving forward. It’s going to be we the region. I’m really
looking forward to what comes next.”
Olympic Time Trials, Qualifiers, Playoffs and World
Championship events that will draw participants
from outside Colorado or other events and meetings associated with the Olympic Sports National
Governing Bodies. ... At least 10 of these events each
year must be new to the State of Colorado meaning
that they have not been previously hosted in Colorado
within five years prior to the opening of the CSEC.”
Organizers have indicated that the Springs-based
governing bodies of Olympic sports have committed
to help meet that goal as they plan their nationalcaliber and Olympic Trials-level events.
Also, as part of the approval agreement, the state
commission specified that if “substantial work”
has not commenced on any single venue within
five years of final approval, “the Commission may
revoke or modify the entire Project.”
Possible AFA change
Chris Jenkins, president of Nor’wood Development
Group and leader of the City for Champions effort, said he saw no reason why Colorado Springs
shouldn’t be able to meet all the conditions for
moving forward.
Jenkins did say that the new AFA Visitors Center,
which most recently had been planned to be located
adjacent to Falcon Stadium, likely would move to
another site closer to Interstate 25 and more easily
accessible from the freeway.
Academy Superintendent Lt. Gen. Michelle
Johnson spoke as part of the City for Champions
presentation to the state commission in early
December, but there has been no official word
about considering a different location. But early
indications have focused on the visitors center being outside the main AFA security entrance, even
if that might mean moving the security gate.
All of the projects also must stay in the size and
overall cost range as presented to the state. They are:
• Olympic Museum and Hall of Fame, 60,000
square feet, $59.4 million;
• Colorado Sports and Event Center, 340,000
square feet, $92.7 million;
• UCCS Sports Medicine and Performance Center,
77,000 square feet, $27 million;
• AFA Visitors Center, 30,000 square feet, $20.5
million;
• Infrastructure in southwest downtown, various
sites, $51 million.
Other ingredients
Not included among the four revenue-producing
major projects, but clearly an integral part of the
overall agreement, will be the city-promised major infrastructure improvements surrounding the
downtown venues. According to the EDC’s documents, those improvements will include a 500-foot
pedestrian bridge spanning the downtown railroad
tracks, a “Wall of Fame” in America the Beautiful
Park, structures to provide for 1,500 parking spaces,
utility upgrades, Monument Creek waterway improvements and the vacating of portions of Sierra
Madre Street and Vermijo Avenue.
Financing that $51 million project will be a major
priority for the Colorado Springs Urban Renewal
Authority, which has been designated as the “financing entity” and also will be charged with redrawing
the downtown urban renewal zone.
As part of the agreement between the city and
the EDC, other nonprofit entities must be quickly
established to oversee the museum and the events
center.
The state commission, citing certain details of the
City for Champions final proposal, has also indicated that “the Olympic Museum Complex must have
an ‘iconic’ design and architecture, with a ‘World
Class Facility’ and ‘State of the Art’ technology.”
Bach said he would make it an immediate priority
to set up groups to serve the function of overseeing
each project and working separately with UCCS
and the Air Force Academy.
Potential obstacles
In a 5-4 vote, the Colorado Springs City
Council previously had refused to support City for
Champions, with different members citing reasons
that included lack of the chance for consultation
with organizers and the potential for needing public
funds to complete the projects.
Bach said he hoped that some of those City
Council opponents might rethink their positions
in light of the state commission’s approval of the
entire tax-increment funding.
Council support will be essential at one juncture,
because any revisions to the downtown urban renewal zone will require Council approval.
“As for the Council, we need to get them comfortable with this,” Bach said, “and I think we will.” CSBJ

Once again, Springs faces a huge opportunity
O
ctober 21, 1982.
It was opening
night at the brandnew Pikes Peak
Center, our city’s
just-finished, sparkling 2,000-seat
theater-auditorium.
I was there; in fact,
my then-spouse and
I walked into the au- HAZLEHURST
ditorium arm-in-arm
with the legendary Bee Vradenburg.
Bee, Charles Ansbacher, Phil Kendall,
Kathleen Collins and scores of other
dedicated community leaders/activists
had conceived the project, persuaded
El Paso County voters to support it and
raised millions in foundation grants and
private donations to completely fund the
$13 million building.
It was an exciting time. I had just returned to my hometown after a 20-year
absence, and it seemed to me that we
were on the brink of an amazing future. A new downtown would rise to
replace the one that had been gutted by
ill-conceived urban renewal projects.
We would preserve what remained of
the old, learn from our mistakes and
build for the future.
What would downtown be in 25 or
30 years, I wondered. Would we have a
museum of contemporary art, jazz clubs,
coffeehouses and really cool bars? Could
the dreary warehouses next to the Pikes
John
Peak Center be replaced by brick and
brownstone row houses? Couldn’t developers build a high-rise or two, and hire
great architects to design them?
Cool bars, yes. Coffeehouses, yes.
Everything else, no. Developers managed to build a couple of medium-rise
buildings (the south tower of the Plaza of
the Rockies and the Wells Fargo Tower),
but civic energy migrated east to the suburbs, to Briargate and Powers Boulevard.
The vacant lots created when speculators
demolished Victorian buildings in the
heart of downtown would still be parking lots 31 years later.
And while downtown Colorado
Springs slept, Denver awoke. Effectively
landlocked by the Poundstone
Amendment, Denver turned inward.
Dana Crawford revived Larimer Street,
John Hickenlooper opened a brewpub
(what’s that?) in the warehouse district,
and the once-moribund area known as
Lower Downtown became home to bars,
galleries, restaurants and bookstores.
Vacant commercial lofts were transformed into living space, and then development exploded. Coors Field! Pepsi
Center! Highland! Central Platte Valley!
The transformation has been amazing,
even incomprehensible. In 1987, I tried
to put together a deal in Denver to buy
a derelict eight-story loft building at the
corner of 17th and Wynkoop, diagonally
across the street from the Oxford Hotel.
The price: $600,000. Cash required: none
In their words
Kyle Hybl, El Pomar Foundation and University
of Colorado regent: “I want to thank the Colorado Economic
Development Commission for giving us the chance to take the
strengths that our city already has and leverage them into more. The
trustees of El Pomar have great faith in the people who are running
each of these four projects and look forward to working with them.
This is a momentous day.”
Mayor Steve Bach: “What a momentous occasion, knowing what
this will mean for so many generations to come. This has meaning far
beyond what we could possibly envision today. I don’t think that overstates
our circumstance. This is something for all of us to celebrate. We’ve been
through so much in the last two years. This is so uplifting for us — can’t
imagine a better future for Colorado Springs.”
Dick Celeste, former Colorado College president
and head of the Olympic museum effort: “The real
work begins today. This is a tremendous vote of confidence from the
state EDC. They have provided us with the tools. Now it’s up to us to
see how those tools work. ... It is a vision of the kind of community that
we are, and the kind of community that we aspire to be. When we’ve
finished, you won’t believe how much better what we will achieve is
than what we dreamed. We’re going to make it happen, folks!”
Doug Price, CEO, Colorado Springs Convention
and Visitors Bureau: “This date is December 16th, and we’ll
remember this as the date when the state of Colorado told us they understand how much tourism means to our area, and that they’re willing to partner with us for the next 30 years. Today’s vote of confidence
makes the sunshine a little brighter. Let’s celebrate a gold-medal
victory for the City for Champions and America’s Olympic City.”
— but any buyer would need to take over
a note and be ready to invest a few hundred thousand more. I needed partners,
so I tried to persuade a friend to invest
in the deal. He passed — too risky, and
the stock market had just taken a dive.
I moved on to other things.
So how much is that building worth
today? Don’t tell me — I don’t want to
know!
Are we on the verge of just such a
transformation? I think so, thanks
to the extraordinary promise of City
for Champions. In the space of a few
minutes, the 10 men and women members (not counting
Chuck Murphy of
Colorado Springs,
who had recused
himself from voting on the proposal) of the
Colorado Economic
Development
Commission gave
us the tools to remake our city.
With state funding in place, the C4C
teams have a clear path ahead. They’ll
have to secure private funding as well
as local public funding for the Olympic
Museum and Hall of Fame, for the multiuse stadium complex, and for downtown
infrastructure improvements.
Given El Pomar’s support, as well as
that of other major donors, the private
component shouldn’t be a problem. Is
it overly optimistic to suppose that the
anti-C4C troglodytes will slink away to
their caves and let things go forward?
The message will be clear: You can be
on the bus, or off the bus — but don’t be
trying to slash the tires.
It’s OK to ask questions and try to
improve the projects, but it’s not OK to
torpedo them.
It was tough to assume a neutral reportorial mask Monday afternoon as
ecstatic C4C supporters, including city
and county elected officials, gathered at
UCCS to celebrate.
“In three years I’m going to make a
few phone calls,”
sa id
C ou nt y
Commissioner
Amy Lathen. “I’m
going to call some
of the people who
opposed this, and
invite them for a
cup of coffee on the
(Olympic) plaza.
You should join us and write about it!”
That timetable sounds about right.
Yesterday’s insurmountable hurdles have
become trifling obstacles. Thanks to our
driven, stubborn “strong mayor,” and to
our city’s united business and nonprofit
leaders, a new era is at hand.
It’s 1982 all over again — so here’s a
word of advice for all you dewy-eyed
optimists.
This time, don’t blow it! CSBJ
With state funding in
place, the C4C teams
have a clear path ahead.

Gazette says goodbye to building, not past
S
igns go up, signs
come
dow n.
Companies sell or
move, and people
move on. Such is life
throughout the business world.
But it’s different
when we’re talking about a daily
newspaper.
R O U T O N
It’s hard to explain,
but newspapers have dual roles. They
need to make a profit, obviously. But to
endure, they also must have a relationship with their audience — and those
readers aren’t typical customers. If a
paper is on its game, the readers feel
like co-owners, empowered to praise
or (especially) criticize stories, writers,
headlines, anything.
For those on the inside, producing that
paper every day of every year, the result
is a unity that’s unlike other professions.
When today’s edition breaks news and
creates conversations in the community, everyone shares in the satisfaction.
When extraordinary stories happen —
no matter how uplifting or tragic — the
staff pulls together to present them as
skillfully and thoroughly as possible.
And when you do that literally thousands of times, you forge bonds that
never fade.
If you have read The Gazette for years,
perhaps you understand. That paper, in-
Ralph

spent that entire time forging deep ties
with the audience, which happens when
you put your opinion and face out there
four, five, even six times a week for nearly
a quarter-century.
When I left to pursue different horizons, many readers never forgot. I
returned to town seven years ago next
week, and strangers still would say hi
and remember something about the
Broncos, a great high school game or
just brief encounters from long ago. That
still happens today.
So there was no hesitation when I
learned about an event planned for
Monday night, with former Gazette employees invited to a last farewell before
the paper’s move downtown. Sure, I’m on
the other side of the fence now. But that
doesn’t erase 24 years, and it doesn’t take
away that closeness to former cohorts,
still working there or not.
I went to that gathering and saw people
for the first time in years. We told old
stories, talked about how the newspaper
business has changed, but how journalism at its core lives on.
We heard former reporter Dave Curtin
(now living in Boulder) talk once again
about his unforgettable story, “Adam and
Megan,” that won a Pulitzer Prize for
feature writing in 1990. But Curtin spent
just as much time reliving the horrific
Sunday in 1991 that began with a United
Airlines plane crash in Widefield, killing
its 20 passengers (many local residents)
and five crew, and ended that night with
a local nursing home fire that claimed
10 lives.
He recalled those details and we all
shuddered once again, even those who
worked outside the newsroom. And
we related to the current staff covering those fires and
floods of the past
two summers.
We enjoyed more
old tales from Barb
Reichert, who became the paper’s
first and only female
sports editor before leaving for Chicago
in 1998 — she’s back now, working for
U.S. Figure Skating. And we relished
the reflections of Jennifer Butcher, the
superb human resources director for
25 years (1986-2011), as well as 47-year
veteran Linda Navarro, still writing for
The Gazette today.
The stories could have continued
all night, but that wasn’t necessary.
Everyone enjoyed the nostalgia, and current Publisher Dan Steever — here just
14 months — marveled at how so many
people nodded knowingly when others
brought up even obscure anecdotes.
If this little soiree had happened a
few years ago, it wouldn’t have been
so pleasant, after The Gazette deterio-
rated so visibly during the last decade
before its longtime parent company,
Freedom Communications, finally
sold to new owners. Then, late last year,
Clarity Media Group (a Philip Anschutz
company) swooped in, bought the paper, poured resources back into it and
stopped the hemorrhaging.
But Clarity didn’t buy that old building, and the aged presses were on their
last legs. The paper
now is printed by
the Denver Post,
and Clarity moved
the remaining operations late this
week to 30 E. Pikes
Peak Ave., with The
Gazette’s nameplate already on its new
location in advance.
Thankfully, the ownership saw fit to
invite the “alumni association” to share
the moment and smell those presses one
last time. Some had to swallow resentment, because they were among the victims laid off or forced out. But many
came because we share the history of
having been part of this city’s dominant
paper.
We share something else: still wanting The Gazette to succeed, even if we
disagree with some of its new agenda,
because any healthy city and its business
community need a daily newspaper to
love, hate, curse and enjoy.
No matter where the building is. CSBJ

CVB, RBA win full funding amid overrides
By John Hazlehurst
[email protected]
“It’s been a great week!” said Colorado
Springs Convention and Visitors Bureau
CEO Doug Price, reacting to City Council’s
decision to sustain Mayor Steve Bach’s
veto of a proposed $1.3 million cut in the
organization’s budget, following on the
Price
heels of the state Economic Development
Commission’s support of the City for Champions proposal.
Mayor Bach’s veto was sustained by a 5-4 Council vote,
with Council President Keith King reversing his previous
vote to withhold funds. He was joined by Councilors Jan
Martin, Val Snider, Jill Gaebler and Merv Bennett.
“I wish that more people knew what the
CVB has done (in promoting visitation in
the region),” Martin said in support.
In a similar reversal, Council also restored $35,000 in withheld funds to the
Regional Business Alliance. Don Knight
Martin
joined the majority in voting to sustain
Bach’s veto and restore the funding, while Keith King
stuck with his original vote to withhold.
“Like it or not,” said Bennett, “the RBA is the only organization in town dedicated to job creation.”
Councilor Joel Miller didn’t change his earlier stance,
saying, “To continually fund organizations because that’s
the way we’ve always done it flies in the face of our efforts
to optimize and maximize our (tax) dollars.”
Those actions were important victories for the business
community, which had been angered and dismayed by
Council’s earlier decisions. They were also victories for
Bach, who has vigorously supported the RBA and CVB.
But Council didn’t hesitate to override Bach’s veto of

NORAD Tracks Santa program draws national fire
he
NOR AD
Tracks Santa
program captured
much attention
when it was inadvertently developed
at a Colorado Springs
military outpost way
back in 1955. Now,
nearly 60 years later, Cameron
it’s doing the same M O I X
thing for a very different reason.
As most of you have read, heard or
seen by now, the newest iteration of the
North American Aerospace Defense
Command’s holiday kiddie program —
developed in part by Microsoft — has
incorporated something new.
Well, most seem to think so.
This year — the program’s 58th anniversary — NORAD overhauled its widely
popular Santa tracker. The new website
at noradsanta.org was launched Dec. 1
from Peterson Air Force Base and depicts
Santa flying his sleigh (Big Red One)
on Christmas morning accompanied
by an escort of what appear to be two
fighter jets.
NORAD’s increased use of its own
image has raised the eyebrows and
concerns of child advocacy groups and
media commentators from border to
border. More than 311,000 people had
watched the 39-second “NORAD Tracks
Santa Trailer Video 2013” on YouTube
by 1 p.m. Wednesday — additionally,
147,000 had viewed the longer, live-action “NORAD Tracks Santa Command
Video 2013.”
While the aircraft in the computer-animated short film are hardly intimidating, with cartoonish bodies and nearly
indiscernible loads, the live-action sequence is a bit more intense, with talk
of missile threats, enemy targets and
fighters that appear armed.
NORAD officials have said that the
move was to reinforce their position as
a militaristic entity, and some say that
targeting children is the key to developing a strong crop of future soldiers — or
interest them in non-military STEM and
aerospace fields.
But even so, some say that the hubbub
is over nothing at all.
In an interview with Associated Press,
U.S. Navy Capt. Jeff Davis told reporters
that the depiction is not a new one and
that Santa has taken advantage of a jet
escort since the 1960s. Davis also claims
that the jets in question are unarmed
Canadian Air Force CF-18s with oversized fuel tanks that may appear bomblike to some, according to the report.
Even if Capt. Davis is wrong, what
should one expect from the continent’s
defense-command cooperative?
It’s NORAD: And if you don’t like the
way they do things, I’m sure there are
other Santa-stalking methods out there
by now.
In fact, Google, a company steeped
in competition and creativity, has qui-

com/SantaTracker, kids and their caretakers can experience a similar selection
of Christmas fun without the fighter jets
and national security jargon. The services, powered by Google Maps, also
include games, a holiday countdown and
tours of Santa’s Village. The application
is available for free download and works
as a simple Chrome browser extension.
It’s unclear — albeit likely — whether
Google developed the site and app to
take advantage of the NORAD “controversy” or if it was merely fueled by the
company’s rivalry with Microsoft, but
one thing is certain — it’s good timing.
In press releases and public comments,
NORAD has continued to defend its site
and the video under scrutiny as nonthreatening and safe for use by kids of
all ages. There are parents out there,
however, who would rather not expose
their children to what some consider
DoD indoctrination.
Either way, whether you go the aerospace/defense route or down the safe techie trail, children of all kinds should be
able to stalk Santa no matter their stance
on military activity. CSBJ

By Marija B. Vader
[email protected]
Walking through Magic Town, one finds guests
transported back to a day, place and time in the life of
the artist who created it, sculptor Michael Garman.
Guests see the joyful faces of the guys at the bar, the
hopeful face of a child wanting popcorn at the movies,
the solemn face of a priest delivering last rites.
And so much more.
A creative display within the Michael Garman
Museum & Gallery, Magic Town features miniature
trash cans, tiny little cowboy boots and cowboy hats,
happy dogs, all amid brick buildings in a fictional
cityscape of Garman’s history.
Magic Town honors the street characters “that he
grew up with, hoboed with, wino’d with and took him
in,” said Mary Koehler, public relations director for the
Garman business in Old Colorado City.
“He went to the soup kitchens, he stood in line at the
missions,” Koehler said. “Those are the stories that are
the most personal. His story is what Magic Town is.”
“I did a tremendous amount of drinking and drugging in the early days,” Garman said in a telephone
interview from his home in Newport Beach, Calif. “I
turned it into a sculptural autobiography.”
Garman grew up in Dallas and initially learned
how to sculpt from his father. His father died when
Garman was young, and a sweetheart died during
high school.
“He kind of wanted to just run away” after high
school, Koehler said.
Breakthrough in Chile
After spending considerable time hitchhiking around
the country with his Nikon camera, Garman hitchhiked
through Mexico. He walked through Central America
to Santiago, Chile, where he talked his way into an art
class and further honed his sculpting skills.
He started creating street characters, hobos and
vagabonds, “which was him and the people he lived
with in the wino districts of Dallas, San Francisco and
such as football and baseball players, on request.
“Bring us a picture, and we’ll make you that football

Exelis spin-off to create largest public
company in Springs
CityBits
The Business Journal staff reports
Defense contractor Exelis Inc. announced last week
that it will spin off a segment of its IT Services division
to create a Springs-based Mission Services company.
The independence of Exelis Mission Systems —
currently a part of the company’s Information and
Technical Services division located in Colorado Springs
— is expected to be complete by summer and will then
be subject to approval by the board of directors, according to the news release.
Mission Systems currently employs about 7,000 workers in more than 100 locations across 18 countries.
The company’s estimated revenue for 2013 is approximately $1.5 billion. The split will allow each company to more effectively compete in their respective
markets, with the soon-to-be renamed and rebranded Mission Systems working primarily on contracts with
the U.S. government.
Upon the transaction’s completion, the newly formed independent company will be led by Kenneth Hunzeker,
who has served as Mission Systems president and general manager since April 2011.

Leechpit to reopen on Westside in early 2014
Nearly six months after Adam Leech was forced to close his shop on the Colorado
College campus, he announced that the Leechpit is reopening on the Westside.
Leech said in a news release Tuesday that the record shop/thrift store will reopen
around Feb. 1 in a 4,000-square-foot space at 3020 W. Colorado Ave. Suite A.
The shop was formerly home to CS West Bikes and increases Leech’s floorspace
threefold, when compared to his former location at 802 N. Nevada Ave.
“We have gotten really good at making the most of less than perfect conditions,” Leech said in the release. “But now we get to see what we can do with a
proper store!”
Leech also said that the store will house a “new Discarded Art Museum,” which
will be “dedicated to the discarded and often anonymous arts and artists on the
outside of the arts world.” According to the release, the collection will feature the
world’s largest display of “hobo nickels” — an art form in which small coins are
creatively modified — and the owner’s private collection of “found and folk art,
castaway dolls and doll houses, miniatures, toys, ephemera and memorabilia.”
Leechpit.com is where the owner and his wife Heather have maintained a retail presence since the previous store was closed July 13. After Leechpit spent 10
years in a rehabbed gas station at the northwest corner of North Nevada Avenue
and East Dale Street, Colorado College declined to renew Leech’s two-year lease.

FAC names Hall interim CEO
Historic Alamo Hotel building sold for $5.9 million
The historic four-story Alamo Hotel building in downtown Colorado Springs was recently purchased for
$5.9 million by a local investor. Matterhorn Development LLC sold the 42,556-square-foot building, which was
constructed around 1900, to Carlisle’s Alamo LLC. Matterhorn purchased the property in 2006 for $5.7 million.
Cascade Commercial Group brokered the recent sale and will be retained to market the building for lease.
“What makes this sale unique is the good properties are not lasting long,” said Cascade Broker/Owner Ted
Link in an interview. “They are being sold at an astonishing rate.”
Located at 128 S. Tejon St., the building, which represents a fraction of the original Alamo Hotel, was remodeled in 1976. The remaining structure includes some original amenities and the original stone facade.
Cascade said that the building, which sold for $138 per square foot, was 90 percent occupied upon closing,
with significant tenants including the Gaspar Law Group, the Law Firm of Graham and Black, and MacKenzie’s
Chop House — operated under multiple names by Concept Restaurants since 1975.
The property sold near an 8 percent capitalization rate with financing arranged through Terrix Financial.
“CAP rates were higher in the beginning of the year, ranging from 9-10 percent and they have now dropped,”
Link said. “One of the reasons long-term debt has stayed fairly consistent is because the feds have not increased
the living rates.”
The Alamo Hotel building was listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places in 1977. According to
History Colorado, the building was originally constructed in the mid 1880s with additions built throughout
the remainder of the 19th century.

as a trustee of the FAC, during which
time she was a member of the executive

also marketing committee chair.
“Having the freedom to take the reins
of this historic institution puts me square
in the middle of my lifelong passion for
the arts and love of the Fine Arts Center,”
Nechie said Monday in a news release.
“I believe in the importance of the arts
in building a healthy quality of life and
a strong economic environment for our
community. This opportunity to help
not only maintain stability of staff and
funding sources, but to help identify relevance for all audiences, taps into my
strengths.”
Hall replaces Sam Gappmayer, who
resigned Nov. 22 to accept a position as
CEO of the Peoria Riverfront Museum
in Peoria, Ill.
The FAC board plans to begin the
search for a permanent CEO soon.

Members of the crew at Buttercup’s
Frozen Yogurt said farewell Monday
in a Facebook post, announcing that
the downtown sweet shop will shut
down before Christmas.
“Buttercup’s will be closing this
Sunday, Dec. 22nd,” the Facebook
announcement read. “We have truly
enjoyed serving you these past 2+
years! Thank you for your support, we
wish you all the best! –The Buttercup’s
Staff.”
Co-owner Lexie Spirinac said that
after much discussion with business
partner Josh Mitchell, the two decided
to call it quits. The
1,800-square-foot
parlor has been
in Suite 110 of
the U.S. Olympic
Committee building at 27 S. Tejon
St. since mid-2011.
“Josh and I did a
lot of thinking and
finally just decided
to close the shop,” she said. “It’s best for
the store and it’s best for both of us.”
Although Spirinac said the shutdown
is entirely voluntary, she also cited issues related to competition — there
are more than a dozen frozen yogurt
vendors around town — downtown
parking and what she referred to as a
“tough economy.”
Although engaged in her role as coowner, Spirinac has not been active in
day-to-day operations since gaining
full-time employment with the USOC
a year ago. She works in both strategic planning as well as diversity and
inclusion.
“We really enjoyed the experience ...
but it’s just time for our next adventure,” she said, adding that starting a
small business at such a young age is

Spirinac said that she and Mitchell

franchising rights and that “if someone
was interested in franchising down the
road, we would be 100 percent interested in getting off the ground with
that.” She said that prospective tenants
are considering taking over the space
upon Buttercup’s closure.
Buttercup’s — named after their dog,
whose name came from the 1987 film
“Princess Bride” — employs nine parttime workers.
“It’s always tough,” Spirinac said.

Kathleen Flarity (center), here conducting a training at Memorial, knows all too well how compassion fatigue can impact emergency room staff and military medical personnel.
Compassion fatigue has impact in ERs as well
By Marija B. Vader
[email protected]
Caregivers may experience compassion fatigue when
they are continually exposed to traumatic injuries,
often seen during war, and also inside hospital emergency rooms.
Memorial Hospital Nurse Kathleen Flarity also works
as a commissioned colonel in the Air Force Reserves.
She has studied compassion fatigue since being deployed
to Afghanistan.
“I just finished 33 years in the military,” Flarity said.
“I have watched countless friends and colleagues, both
in the military and civilians, suffer the effects of caring for the wounded and caring for critically ill and
injured patients.
“It’s not normal for a 19-year-old respiratory therapist
to take care of ... a triple amputee.”
Her extensive experience led Flarity to study compassion fatigue, allowing her to learn how to help
prevent it and to treat caregivers who experience it.

2013 Year in Review
Memorial staffer first in nation to study ER falls
By Marija B. Vader
[email protected]
When people fall in
an emergency room, any
medical treatment as a result of the fall is paid for by
the hospital. Historically,
there’s been no assessment
Flarity
tool to ascertain the risk
level of falling in emergency departments
— until Dr. Kathleen Flarity created one
for Memorial Hospital.
“There was nothing in the United States
and nothing worldwide,” said Flarity, 51,
who has a doctorate of nursing practice.
She practices and teaches at Memorial
Hospital, and is a colonel in the U.S. Air
Force Reserves.
“If a patient falls in our hospital, it’s
our fault,” she said. “It’s a measurement
of quality for most hospitals.”
Hospital falls account for almost 40 percent of inpatient incidents, most resulting
in minor injuries. However, 6 percent of
falls cause serious injuries. National studies
conducted regarding falls in hospitals have
not separated the emergency department
from the balance of the hospital.
“We knew the emergency department

was different. Our goal is to improve
patient safety and reduce falls — but
there weren’t any tools looked at in the
emergency department. We are the busiest emergency department in the state,”
Flarity said.
Between Memorial Central and its
North campus, combined, ED hospital
staff treat more than 140,000 patients a
year, or 400 patients each day.
From the beginning
One study in 2009 compiled information after the fact, so Flarity considered it
unreliable. As a result, she “started from
scratch” to identify the fall risk in all the
patients admitted through the emergency
department at the Memorial’s hospitals,
Central and North.
Nurses in the emergency department
collected data on each patient. For each
patient, they mapped the fall risk criteria.
Research showed the population is
younger in the emergency room than
those admitted to the hospital, Flarity said.
“Every single patient who came in to
the emergency room, the admitting nurse
would assess the fall risk,” she said.
Before the study, not all falls were
counted. The study, conducted from 2010
to 2012, considered 91,190 emergency department patients — only adults, and of
those, 110 patients fell. Of those falls, there
were no significant injuries, she said.
“Our Central campus has a higher acuity, and we have the behavioral health
unit,” Flarity said.
“Now there’s something that every single
emergency department in the world can
compare theirs against,” she said of the fall
rate. The study found that 44 percent of
the people who fell were intoxicated. The
mean age was 46.
“Originally, I thought it was the older
people who fell,” Flarity said.
Program for at-risk patients
Following the study, the hospital instituted a program for persons at risk for falls.
The system requires patients at high fall
risk to wear yellow booties and a yellow
gown. Depending on the criteria, patients
at a higher risk would be required to have
an alarm on the bed.
“If a patient started scooting off the
bed, the alarm would go off,” she said,
highlighting the geriatric population. “If
a patient wets or soils themselves, based
on the literature, they’re more likely to fall
because they try to get out of bed.”
Part of the process includes education, as
health care professionals clarify to patients
and their family members why the patient
is wearing yellow.
Now that every patient is assessed for
fall risk and all falls are being reported,
“we’re seeing 16.7 percent fewer falls, and
100 percent reduction in serious injuries,”
Flarity said.
Flarity copyrighted her study, so others
who want to study falls in their hospital
emergency departments using her riskassessment tool must request permission
from her.
So far, nine emergency departments
from Arizona to New Jersey are using the
tool to study falls. Flarity said there was a
void, so she filled it.
“When you look at the data and see
there’s nothing out there,” she said, “you
just kind of have to do something.”
In August, the hospital had its lowest fall
rate, with 1.19 falls per 1,000 patients, said
Paula Freund, media relations specialist
at Memorial.
“We had seven falls in the month of
August, and that’s the lowest ever since
we started measuring falls,” she said.
“That’s all the effort of everyone being
vigilant.” CSBJ

Law embraces her task at EPC Public Health
By Rebecca Tonn
[email protected]
Jill Law, director of El Paso County Public Health since March 2012, received
her registered nurse degree from Beth-El College of Nursing at UCCS and has a
master’s in health administration from the University of Phoenix. Prior to her
current position, she served as the agency’s division director of health services,
overseeing six departments. Before joining EPCPH in 1995, she worked at Cedar
Springs Psychiatric Unit and the Penrose Hospital Surgical Unit.
During the Waldo Canyon and Black Forest fires and ensuing floods, Law
led teams that established and operated disaster assistance centers, helping
thousands of residents.
Since moving from Kansas in 1983, she has hiked all over Colorado and enjoys
taking crossfit classes and spending time with family and friends. Recently, Law
took time with the Business Journal to talk about her career and goals.
one on one
JILL LAW
We’re
constantly
being challenged
with how to keep
the core public
services funded.”
How did your career as a nurse prepare you for your current role?
As nurses, we are expected to be flexible, adaptable and accustomed to change,
and certainly, looking back, as a registered nurse — moving from looking out for the
health of an individual [patient] to the health of a population — was a good fit. In
public health, we really focus on population-based health outcomes. So having worked
my way from registered nurse to public health nurse to program manager to division
director to public health director was really 18 years of growing in my public health
care roles and learning to shift and adapt into leadership roles.
As division director, I got to work closely with the past two public health directors — and that was my unknowing preparation for the role I had no idea would be
my future career.
Prior to this role, what was the highlight of your career?
When I was the division director of health services, I really had the opportunity to
bring together that clinical side and the population-based care side of public health.
And really the highlight for me was being able to help facilitate taking the staff in
the direction of population-based care, which involved shifting to the mindset that
whatever we do on a day-to-day basis globally helps improve the overall population.
The goal is to help improve the health of an entire population.
And we were able to have the luxury of helping design this building [on Garden of
the Gods Road], along with the architects, engineers and plumbers. It was a year-long
process and very exciting. We made an effort to match up our current needs with
future needs. We built a building for the future.
What are the current challenges facing the health department?
Really, the challenges have and will continue to remain the same — and that is the
ever-moving funding streams and the reduction in funding we have seen over the
years in our federal and state contracts. We’re constantly being challenged with how
to keep the core public services funded. For instance — [for] the reduction and control
of communicable diseases — we do restaurant inspections to prevent food-borne illnesses and give immunizations to children and adults. Those are only two examples
of services we provide that require resources in order to maintain those services for
the public. Our funding streams come from federal, state and county [governments],
fee-based services and donations.
During your tenure, what has been your most significant accomplishment?
We became the first accredited public health department in Colorado, by the National
Public Health Accreditation Board. We are one of only 19 agencies accredited in the
nation [out of about 3,000 agencies]. We are the only accredited agency in Colorado.
The PHAB is governed by a board of directors who are public health leaders. Ultimately,
by becoming an accredited facility, it really demonstrates meeting public health accountability standards — and very few agencies have even started the process. A
community should have the luxury of knowing that its public health department
has been put through a very detailed evaluation of their policy, procedures, what it
delivers as its public health services, and its accountability standards.
What are your goals for the department in the next year or so?
One of the goals for 2014 is to be able to get back to focusing strictly on public health.
In 2013, we went through a merger of services with the county. Previously, we had our
own internal finance and employee benefit programs, and we’ve merged with El Paso
County’s services. This allows me to not have to manage those two internal departments, which gives me time to focus on what I know best. I will continue to work on
improving the funding streams for the agency, and I want to strengthen the public
health system — which is more than a local health department. It’s all the agencies
coming together and delivering services to improve overall health.
What’s one thing you’d like Colorado Springs to know about your department?
One of the key things I’d like Colorado Springs to know about the public health
department is when there’s an emergency — like the Black Forest fire and the floods
in Manitou Springs and elsewhere — that our team is onsite, responding and helping.
It may be related to protection of groundwater and getting wells recapped or going
into Manitou and guiding cleanup efforts, especially for restaurants. They have many
challenges to clean up so they can rapidly and safely reopen for business.
And we really, really like what we do — serving the public — and we’re grateful
for the opportunity. I’m going on 19 years, and I wouldn’t be doing it if I didn’t really
like it and believe in it. CSBJ

Payne helps Peak Vista serve
community, overcome barriers
By Cameron Moix
[email protected]
P
eak Vista Community Health Centers and its mission to improve health and
well-being in the Pikes Peak region are what keeps Colorado Springs native
Matt Payne close to home. Payne, a 35-year-old husband and father, identifies
with and helps facilitate the nonprofit’s mission to increase health care accessibility despite the barriers some patients may face. As director of clinical support
services, he oversees several departments and also works with several other
community programs and nonprofits. Payne took some time during a live interview this week to tell the Business Journal about the services Peak Vista offers
and what he has been doing to help since joining the team in 2007.
Why did you choose to stay in your
hometown of Colorado Springs?
I have a lot of roots here. My family all lives here,
my parents live here, my wife’s family all lives here.
I also have a lot of connections here and I’m really
involved in the community, so there is a lot keeping
me here right now.
How are you involved in the community?
In 2011, I went through Leadership Pikes Peak’s
Leadership Now program. Before that I had hardly
done any community service or volunteer work.
But that really ignited me to get involved in the
community, and so right away I got on the board
of Urban Peak, which is basically a homeless shelter
for youth. I’m also the incoming board chair of the
Rocky Mountain Field Institute, which does a lot of
ecological work, trail building and environmental
stewardship.
Do you think the Springs provides a good
environment for young professionals?
Yes and no. I think there are a lot of good things
about Colorado Springs and a lot of hidden gems
and treasures here that many people don’t know
about. ... I think it is getting better and there is a lot of
movement around stimulating the environment for
young professionals, and to attract young professionals and keep them here. I think we have a long way
to go and that it’s on the radar of our mayor and City
Council, but probably not to the extent it should be.
There are a lot of activities here and lots of appeal for
young professionals. What this community doesn’t
necessarily have is a lot of economic opportunity.
... I think it is going to get better, and I think things
like City for Champions, while not perfect, are the
kinds of things we need to stimulate the economy
and attract young professionals.
How did you become interested in health care?
As an undergraduate, I wanted to be a geologist
but then I took an intro to psych class and just fell
in love with it. I love trying to understand people —
people are fascinating to me. That’s kind of where
it all started.
How do you feel that Peak Vista’s values align
with your own?
I would say that’s definitely one of the things that
keeps me working here: Our mission and the work
that we do is so important. Even with the changes
brought about by the Affordable Care Act, there are
still going to be people out there without great access to care or who can’t afford the help they need.
... Growing up, our family was poor and my parents
were laid off and we were uninsured, so getting
sick was a big deal. ... So health care and health care
advocacy and improving the way the system works
is something I am really passionate about.
What do you do in your spare time?
On top of the two boards that I serve on and the
Leadership Pikes Peak committee, I own a photography company. ... I also teach photography classes
and lessons, which keeps me crazy busy. ... On top
of that, I climb mountains: I’ve climbed all of the
Fourteeners, I’ve climbed 83 of the 100 tallest peaks
in Colorado, and hopefully by the end of next year
I will have climbed all of them. The photography
and the climbing go hand in hand real nicely. CSBJ

FOCUS HEALTH CARE QUARTERLY
Working to end cancer, aided by technology and screening
By Dr. Robert J. Hoyer
Few words evoke as much dread or fear as
“cancer.” New research and cutting-edge care
are redefining what a cancer diagnosis means.
Cancer specialists now have more options
in customizing a person’s care than ever before. While cancer is never a diagnosis anyone
Hoyer
wants to receive, these medical advances are
changing the face of living with cancer.
People might assume that such state-of-the-art treatment
is only found at Ivy League medical
centers or major East Coast and West
Coast cities. Truth is, Colorado is home
to some of the most advanced cancer
care available in the U.S.
Lung cancer, the leading cancer killer,
accounts for more than a quarter of all
cancer deaths with an estimated 160,340
people dying of it each year. That’s more
than colon, breast and prostate cancer
combined. Yet, as scary as this sounds,
physicians right here are putting a decent
dent in those dire statistics.
Memorial Hospital recently launched a low-cost lung CT
screening program. Designed for long-time smokers, these
screenings enable physicians to detect malignancies at a very
early stage, which helps to improve survival. The service is
provided at an affordable cost – $75 – so that price does not
prevent someone from taking this potentially life-saving
measure.
One of the physicians currently involved in the development
of lung cancer screening guidelines is Dr. Matthew Blum, a
Memorial thoracic surgeon and one of just six general thoracic
surgeons in the state of Colorado. He and his partner, Dr.
Jenifer Marks, armed with these screenings as a road map,
are able to remove early-stage lung cancers using minimally
invasive techniques.
Meanwhile Memorial’s partners, Aurora-based University
of Colorado Hospital and the University of Colorado Cancer
Center, offer not only the latest treatment, but scientific discovery. The University of Colorado Cancer Center is the
only National Cancer Institute-designated cancer center
for hundreds of miles, the only one in
Colorado and one of just a few dozen
nationally. That means that Colorado
patients have greater access to clinical
trials and the latest medical knowledge
than just about anyone in the country.
And since Memorial Hospital is now affiliated with the University of Colorado
Health, Colorado Springs residents have
greater access to this expertise.
Consider the drug Crizotinib.
Researchers at UCCC were instrumental
in developing this chemotherapy drug
that targets specific molecules. This kind of personalized
therapy improves quality of life and survival, and it began
here in Colorado. Comparable ground-breaking work takes
place at this elite institution on a regular basis.
Even so, treatment and research are only two components
of cancer care. The expert staff and the tools available to them
enhance the level of care provided. This is why UC Health
invested more than $40 million in a state-of-the-art electronic
medical record system and other technology. The electronic
Colorado patients have
greater access to clinical
trials and the latest
medical knowledge than
just about anyone in the
country.
Lung screenings help physicians detect malignancies in longtime
smokers and begin treatment as soon as possible.

don’t miss a beat!’
Kaiser offers integrated
coordinated patient care
By Dr. Richard Spurlock
Individuals and employers alike are
navigating a complex health care system
these days. In Colorado Springs, Kaiser
Permanente is working to address this
complexity head-on as it incorporates
technology, evidence-based research and
collaborative care teams to provide highSpurlock
quality, coordinated patient care.
Kaiser Permanente is unique in that it is both an
insurance company and a health care provider. The
nonprofit health plan has had a presence in Southern
Colorado since 1997, with 56,000 members currently
living in the community. These members have access
to a network of nearly 800 primary and specialty care
physicians, along with Kaiser Permanente physicians at
medical offices in Pueblo and Briargate Senior Health
Center in Colorado Springs.
Kaiser Permanente’s integrated care-delivery system
extends beyond the four walls of an exam room. In
Southern Colorado specifically, the health plan is offering several new programs designed to streamline
hospital and outpatient care.
Hospitalist program
One such program is Kaiser Permanente’s Hospitalist
program at Memorial Central and Memorial North
hospitals. Primary care physicians do not typically see
patients while they are in the hospital. Instead, they
delegate care of their hospitalized patients to hospitalists.
As the name implies, hospitalists are board-certified
internal medicine or family medicine physicians who
specialize in caring for patients in the hospital. Four
Kaiser Permanente physicians serve as staff hospitalists
at both Memorial hospitals seven days a week.
Hospital-based care is not new to Kaiser Permanente
in Colorado, as its physicians have provided this type of
inpatient care for almost 25 years. The distinct advantage
of the Hospitalist program at the Memorial hospitals is
that it provides a direct line of communication between
hospital staff and Kaiser Permanente providers to view
and communicate patient information electronically.
Hospitalists send patient discharge reports to primary
care physicians in real time, even before the patient
leaves the hospital. This helps align follow-up treatment
with the care received in the hospital.
“Our staffing model is designed to ensure more time
per patient than the national average, giving us at least
10 hours at the hospital each day,” said Dr. Kelly Foley,
Kaiser Permanente’s assistant regional department chief
of hospital medicine in Southern Colorado.
“As a result, we have time to determine how we can
best support patients and their families during their
hospital stays and after they are discharged. We have
a direct line to all Kaiser Permanente services and can
easily refer patients when we identify a particular need.”
Another component of the integrated care deliv-

Pager and text message alerts beep and buzz in unison across
the Penrose Hospital campus. “STEMI ALERT TO PH ER (10
MIN OUT) 59 YR MALE,” reads the message. With efficiency
patterned after race-car pit crews, the medical team springs into
action. A 59-year-old man is experiencing a “STEMI” — the most
dangerous and time-sensitive type of heart attack — and he’s
Campbell
headed to Penrose Hospital. The ambulance will be here in 10
minutes. Every minute that can be saved in providing treatment is important.
Each year more than 1.2 million people in the United States suffer heart
attacks. Heart attacks are a leading killer of both men and women in the
United States. Those who survive a heart attack frequently experience lifelong
disability.
During a heart attack, a clot blocks the flow of blood that delivers oxygen
to the heart muscle. Without this oxygen, the heart begins to die. The more
time that passes without treatment to restore the flow of blood, the greater
the chance of damage or death.
In the past 10 years, medical professionals have been working to increase
the speed with which appropriate heart attack treatment can be delivered. For
“John,” our 59-year-old man in this case, the process began with him calling
9-1-1, soon after he experienced crushing chest pain. The fire department and
ambulance teams quickly arrived at his home and performed an EKG — a
test of the heart’s electrical activity — which confirmed he was having a heart
attack. He was given preliminary treatment and loaded into the ambulance.
While he was on the way to the hospital, a copy of his EKG was faxed to the
Penrose Emergency Department, where the physician confirmed the STEMI
diagnosis and initiated what they call a Cardiac Alert: The pager message
above was sent to alert the treatment team that John would soon be arriving.
Hospitals have clot-busting drugs and other artery-opening treatments that

record allows physicians to share medical information about
their patients more effectively and completely. Memorial
employs five medical oncologists who, in partnership with
UCCC, can help enroll many of their patients into the latest
clinical trials and share records and information with trusted
counterparts.
Among the other improvements at Memorial is the most
advanced PET/CT scanner currently available and it allows
for planning more precise delivery of radiation therapy. This
high-tech machine is one of just six in the western U.S. and
one of the few found outside of an academic medical center.
Such an investment is more than just an upgrade to a new toy
or gadget. It truly means the difference in Memorial Cancer
Center being able to provide the highest level of care to our
patients.
Despite these significant advances, the emotional drain of
this disease cannot be underestimated, which is why Memorial
Cancer Center couples its expert clinical care and technology with a nurse navigator program. Navigators, as the title
implies, are nurses who help patients navigate the complex
world associated with their care.
The numerous appointments cancer patients have can be
daunting to keep up with, and the nurse navigators provide
this assistance along with education and emotional support
throughout the patient’s journey.
Perhaps someday the word “cancer” will be no more threatening than a cold or the flu. Until then, an army of brilliant minds and compassionate care providers, right here in
Colorado, won’t rest.
Dr. Robert J. Hoyer is the oncology service line director for

ery system is Kaiser Permanente Care Connections
(KPCC). Offered at no additional charge to members,
KPCC features nine nurses, two medical assistants
and a disease management coordinator. Their work
includes helping members manage chronic conditions,
wellness coaching, assistance in accessing preventive
care and transitioning care from the hospital to outpatient settings. Approximately 3,000 Kaiser Permanente
members access KPCC services each month.
According to Dawn Wainright, RN, BSN, KPCC
collaborative care coordinator, “We know that coordinated patient care improves health outcomes and
reduces costs. By working in partnership with primary
care physicians, KPCC staff are able to identify gaps
in care and connect members to services they need to
achieve their best health.”
A direct example is KPCC’s approach to identifying
and supporting members with uncontrolled diabetes:
1. Staff begin by using data derived from Kaiser
Permanente’s HealthConnect® electronic medical record
to contact members who have uncontrolled diabetes
(hemoglobin A1C levels of 8 or higher).
2. Members are then contacted via email and phone
to identify any barriers to adhering to their medications or making healthy lifestyle choices. KPCC staff
develop a care plan for members, which is shared and
implemented with their primary care physicians.
3. Long-term, KPCC staff work with members to
reinforce messages they receive from their physicians
and connect them to community resources. Members
are also able to attend diabetes management classes led
by Kaiser Permanente dietitians. Since these classes
began in early 2012, 47 percent of participating individuals have achieved greater control of their blood sugar.
“KPCC is designed to educate our members on what’s
available and more importantly, offer hope and care,”
said Donna Calhoon, RN, KPCC collaborative care
coordinator. “All too often, patients don’t know who
to ask for help. That’s where the KPCC staff come in,
to serve as their long-term partner in health.”
Coordinated health care depends on patients, providers and care teams working together. For employers, it
results in reduced health care costs and more productive
employees. For individuals, it helps them stay out of the
hospital and live longer, healthier lives.
“The KPCC program literally saved my life,” said
Debbie Torrez, Kaiser Permanente member from
Colorado Springs. “I am a diabetic and when I found
out about the program I wasn’t doing well. Donna and
her team helped me get the medication I needed, connected me with doctors and followed up to see how I
was doing. I urge others to seek out KPCC because they
are truly here to help.”
Dr. Richard Spurlock, who has a master’s in business administration, is the medical director for Kaiser
Permanente in Southern Colorado and a part of the
Colorado Permanente Medical Group.

Envisioning a better tomorrow
M
ost people in the Colorado Springs business community
see Chris Jenkins as an energetic but usually soft-spoken
developer, taking the reins of Nor’wood Development Group
from his father David. But there is a lot more to the younger
Jenkins than many probably realize.
He obviously cares about what’s going on here, today and in
the future. He’s been directly involved with such local entities
as the Downtown Partnership, the Regional Business Alliance
and Operation 6035 during the past decade.
But he also constantly watches and studies many other cities,
what they’re doing to improve themselves, what we might learn
from them that might work here, especially
in revitalizing urban areas.
Jenkins is smart enough to know he can’t
change the world himself. But as the City
for Champions campaign took shape, pulling together key political, educational,
military and philanthropic figures from
across Colorado Springs, Jenkins fit perfectly as the overall group’s guiding force.
And when the news came Monday with the state Economic
Development Commission approving full funding for Colorado
Springs’ four proposed City for Champions venues, Jenkins
saw the moment as even more than just the chance to see
those four projects become reality. He and others, including
El Pomar Foundation executive and University of Colorado
Regent Kyle Hybl, understood the projects could inspire much
more progress, sooner than many might expect.
For Colorado Springs, the City for Champions package can
become a catalyst unlike anything we’ve seen here in decades,
if not generations. No, it’s not perfect, but as mentioned after
the news came Monday, perhaps the best comparison might go
back 100 years to Spencer Penrose building The Broadmoor, the
Pikes Peak Highway and Cog Railway, then later the Broadmoor
Ice Palace (which became the first World Arena).
Those visionary projects helped carry the city and its tourism industry through the 20th Century. Now, early in a new
century, we have this opportunity. As the downtown portions
take shape, the potential reaches far beyond “just” the Olympic
museum and the stadium/events sportsplex. This could lead to
an entirely new area of commercial and residential development
(perhaps other projects as well, like the science and children’s
museums), businesses large and small from retail to restaurants
and more, plus apartments and condos that literally could add
thousands of downtown-area residents.
But for Jenkins, it’s not simply about developers now being willing to jump into
the parade.
“In cities trying to change, attitude is the
first thing that has to change,” Jenkins said.
“With what happened today, the attitude
is changing now, and with that comes new
excitement.”
Granted, nobody can expect an instant tidal wave of blind
support. We know that City for Champions still has opponents
who are absolutely convinced this whole idea is wrong and
misguided. They don’t want any public money involved and
are determined to stop that from happening.
Those folks need to realize the City for Champions projects
will not just benefit a few. They will enhance the quality of life for
all of Colorado Springs, they will boost our tourism industry by
luring new visitors to the region, and they will create momentum
from that new “attitude” for shaping a more dynamic downtown.
And the best part is that Colorado Springs has 40-something
civic leaders like Chris Jenkins, Kyle Hybl and others to see
it through. CSBJ

Preparing business for employee retirement
A
sk six different people when they want
to retire, and chances are you’ll get
six different answers.
If you’re a business owner with an aging workforce, the answer to that question
can have big implications. While business
owners might have given thought to their
own retirement plans, they need to devote
just as much time to planning for when
their employees retire.
The traditional retirement age of 65
has long been the target plugged into retirement calculators across the country.
According to Northwestern Mutual’s latest
Planning and Progress Survey, the reality
is a bit different. There’s a noticeable gap in
the age pre-retirees believe they will retire
at and the age they actually do.
On average, pre-retirees say they will
retire at age 68. Yet, the mean age of retirement among those already retired is
59. For business owners, that means your
employees nearing retirement age might
be retiring sooner than you — and they
— expect. As a business owner, the time
to start planning for employee retirement
is now.
Your employees, especially long-term
ones, not only keep your business running smoothly, but they also give you a
key competitive advantage. Their many
years of experience, strong relationships
with clients and business partners and indepth knowledge of your business make
retaining them all the more important.
Here are a few ways
you can retain your
top talent by making
work as enjoyable as
that early morning tee
time … well, almost.
• Give a little, get
a lot: Allowing your
older employees to
work from home or Kevin
part-time (with or K A V E N E Y
without benefits) gives
them the flexibility they want while helping you keep your top performers for a
few more years.
• Old school meets new school: How
your company does business might have
changed drastically over the years. Even
your top talent might require training in
new skills. Providing older employees the
training they need can remove obstacles in
their way and help them continue working.
• It’s all about the perks: Rewarding
your key employees with exclusive benefits demonstrates your understanding of
how valuable they are to your company’s
success. A financial expert can help you
develop a plan to enhance your benefits
program, helping you protect, reward and
retain your most talented team members.
We all want to retire someday.
Retirement is referred to as our “golden
years,” after all. Eventually, your older
employees will leave your organization.
All business owners need to have a plan in
place to pass along retirees’ knowledge and
be prepared for a potential labor shortage.
You should have a formal succession
plan and programs to retain the valuable
knowledge of your older employees to
ensure the continuity of your business.
• Identify key employees: For starters,
determine the employees whose knowledge and experience is essential to your
business.
• Job shadowing:
Once you’ve identified your key employees approaching retirement,
consider assigning
another employee
to job shadow them
and learn some of
the secrets to their
success.
• Give words to thoughts: At this point,
for a few of your employees, some duties
might be as natural as a reflex. Consider
having them write up job processes and
workflows as well as list out key contacts
and the location of vital documents.
Also, as your older employees retire, you
might not be able to hire a replacement
immediately. Business owners should prepare for the potential labor shortage. One
solution might be to make an investment
to improve your technology. It might also
be an ideal time to review your current employees’ duties and see how your business
might be able to operate more efficiently.
While nothing can replace the contribution of your key employees, one way to help
retain them and prepare for their eventual
retirement is to establish a mentoring program. Pairing up younger employees with
more experienced ones in your workforce
holds countless benefits.
Experienced employees can provide
younger workers
with valuable insight
into your organization and introduce
them to key business
partners. Younger
employees also bring
fresh insight to the
table and could introduce older employees
to new technology
that makes certain tasks more efficient.
The workforce is more diverse than
ever. Mentoring programs bring your
employees together, build teamwork and
help them share ideas.
While you might not be able to predict
when your employees will retire, you can
plan for it. So when they do, your biggest
concern will be throwing them the perfect
party at the office.

Four tips to boost health and productivity in 2014
M
any popular
New Year’s
resolutions focus
on how to improve
health. Healthier
habits not only improve physical health
and well-being, but
also provide a boost
to mental health and
productivity.
L E T S O N
Small habit changes can make a big difference. For example, swapping out one sugary drink
per day for water reduces calorie intake
and can lead to increased health benefits;
taking the stairs instead of the elevator adds exercise into a daily routine
and may lead to more positive changes
throughout the day.
Here are four tips to make a difference
in personal health for the New Year.
1. Make an appointment. One of the
easiest ways to stay healthy is to make
sure to get recommended exams, screenings and immunizations. Screenings are
designed to help detect some diseases in
their early, most treatable stages. Staying
up-to-date on immunizations helps prevent the spread of preventable diseases,
such as pertussis (whooping cough) and
varicella (chickenpox). Getting an annual flu vaccination can reduce your
number of sick days at work, while pro-

tecting those around you from getting ill.
2. Swap out sugary drinks for water.
Rethink your drink and choose water
instead of juice or soda. Extra calories
from sugar-sweetened beverages may
lead to weight gain. Keep a bottle of water nearby or fill a pitcher of water and
keep it in the fridge.
Add a slice of lemon,
lime, or cucumber
for flavor.
3. Increase physical activity. For important health benefits, adults need 150
minutes of moderate activity every week.
If 150 minutes sounds like a lot of time,
remember it doesn’t have to be done all
at once. Not only is it best to spread out
your activity during the week, but you
can even break it up into 10 minutes at
a time. Try walking the stairs, take a
standing stretch break during the day, or
hold a walking meeting with colleagues.
Exercise helps improve overall health,
reduces stress, can boost your mood,
and decreases your risk for many chronic
diseases.
4. Make a plan to quit using tobacco. Tobacco use, of any kind, and exposure to tobacco smoke can increase
your chance of getting cancer, heart
disease and stroke, as well as respiratory, reproductive, and oral health issues.
Businesses also suffer from the effects of
tobacco. Tobacco use causes employees
to miss work more often due to sickness, and makes them more expensive to
insure. Each year, smoking deaths cost
businesses $97 billion nationwide. Free
resources are available to help people
quit:
• The Colorado
QuitLine provides
free resources and
an individual quit
coach to help individuals stop using
tobacco. Call 1-800784-8669 or (1-800-QUITNOW), or visit
www.coquitline.org.
• Tobaccofreeco.org provides resources online in English and Spanish to help
you or someone you love quit.
• COQUITmobile.org is a free text
message-based program that gives
instant support and coaching to quit
through a cell phone.
The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention is also tackling these “winnable battles,” as they are common issues
that can have a big impact on people’s
overall health.
Perhaps some of these four tips are
lifestyle changes you’ve already made,
and if that’s the case, continue to follow

Did City Council, acting as the Utilities Board,
do the right thing in stopping $256,000 in
CSU’s annual grants spread among 86 area
nonprofits?
Yes, that’s not a Utilities
function since ratepayers
are the owners.
No, it’s appropriate to
support nonprofits as a
corporate utility would.
Unsure, this falls in a gray
area and apparently doesn’t
impact local rates.

Call: Timing is crucial
From page 18
can stop a heart attack and restore the
flow of blood to the heart. If these treatments are given soon after the symptoms
begin, they can prevent or limit death
and damage of the heart muscle. To be
most effective, these treatments need to
be given within one hour of the initial
heart attack symptoms.
When John arrives at the hospital, he
is quickly wheeled into the emergency
room where the team goes to work. In a
flurry of activity, tests are done, medication administered, and in less than 10
minutes, he is rushed to the “cath lab”
where a wire can be inserted to open
the vessel in his heart that has become
blocked.
In 32 minutes from the time he passed
through the hospital door, just over an
hour after his initial chest pain, John’s
heart muscle is receiving blood to the
area that was being starved. John was
discharged from the hospital two days
later with minimal damage to his heart
and expectations for a full recovery.
Acting quickly to initiate treatment is
key when someone experiences a heart
attack.
While people tend to take action when
they have crushing chest pain, too often heart attacks present with less clearcut symptoms: pain in the jaw, neck,
shoulders, back or stomach, shortness
of breath, cold sweat or nausea.
Often people attribute these symptoms
to something else, waiting for symptoms
to pass while their heart muscle is dying.
For our patients in Colorado Springs,
the typical person experiencing a heart
attack waits more than two hours before
seeking treatment, with one out of five
waiting more than six hours.
The most important thing to do if
someone may be having a heart attack
is to call 9-1-1 quickly.
Activating the Emergency Medical
System allows them to quickly come to
the patient and to begin the treatment
process on location and while en route to
the hospital. As we saw in John’s case, the
fire department and ambulance team are
able to alert the hospital when they’re on
their way, so the Emergency Department
team is prepared to act quickly upon
arrival.
“Time is muscle,” is the statement frequently heard about heart attack care.
An entire system of medical professionals has been fine-tuned to quickly provide the treatment that can save lives and
minimize permanent damage.
Setting that system in motion is easy,
by dialing 9-1-1, and can only be done
by the person experiencing the heart
attack or by someone who cares about
them. In the words of a new national
education campaign, “Make the call,
don’t miss a beat!”

coordinator at Penrose-St. Francis Health

less-expensive options to the painted
pieces.
Health matters
In the late 2000s, Garman was diagnosed with congestive heart failure.
“Doctors had given him two years to
get his affairs in order,” Koehler recalled.
Garman’s son, an artist in his own
right who had apprenticed with him,
left the company. One daughter lived in
Germany, and the other had just graduated college “so there was no one to take
over the line,” Koehler said.
Garman did not want to sell his art
and production, so he announced his
retirement.
“He wasn’t prepared for the community’s response” of shock and disappointment, Koehler said.
Garman’s receiving his health diagnosis coincided with the economic crash
of 2008, when foreclosures and vacancy
signs dotted Old Colorado City. “He
didn’t want to add to that,” Koehler said.
He moved to California, and doctors
there are treating his condition differently than physicians here.
“He has a serious condition,” Koehler
said. “At least the doctors are more
hopeful.”
He became the artist-in-residence of
the company he founded and turned
over the business reins to his daughter,
Vanessa Garman.
At the time, only around 290 of
Garman’s 496 original sculptures were
being reproduced. Vanessa Garman’s
dream was to produce all of her father’s
sculptures. It is Michael Garman’s wish
to have any one of his pieces available to
ship to a customer at any given moment,
Koehler said.
Annual sales last year topped
$408,200, with 6,732 sculptures sold,
and “I have the expectation this year
will be better,” Koehler said.
In all, Garman’s sculptures range
from bronze-finished sculptures for
$40 to $1,300 custom-painted shadow
boxes. CSBJ

develop techniques where fight-or-flight does not dominate.” When caregivers are
in a fight-or-flight moment, they’re less able to deal with the subtleties of medical
emergencies, he added.
“Helping our colleagues [stay] in that calm space helps them be better providers,”
he said.
After training, nurses experienced statistically significant improvement in burnout
and secondary traumatic stress, Flarity said. They also improved in compassion
satisfaction, the joy people feel from doing their jobs, she said.
“I found it to be a valid tool in professionals’ quality of life. We tested the participants five weeks later,” Flarity said.
Whether the training maintains its resiliency one year later is yet to be determined, she said.
“My goal is to take it to the military. It would be a challenge to get it to the military,
but I think it works,” Flarity said. “It’s what I’m most proud of.”
Flarity’s military career
In addition to her job as a nurse at Memorial, Flarity serves as mobilization assistant to the assistant Air Force surgeon general in medical force development and
also to the assistant Air Force surgeon general, nursing service.
She began her military career in 1980 when she served as a combat medic in the
Army in Korea. She was commissioned in the Army Reserve in 1988 and continued
her military career while working as a nurse.
She was assigned to the 50th General Hospital in Seattle. As head nurse there,
she deployed to Saudi Arabia during operations Desert Shield and Desert Storm.
During her military career, she earned a number of college degrees, including a
Ph.D. in education and a doctorate of nursing practice.
In 1995, Flarity transferred to the U.S. Air Force Reserve in Washington.
The Air Force Reserves commissioned her a colonel in 2011.
“Kathleen is one of the most exceptional people I’ve met,” Mesnikoff said. “She
is absolutely tireless, incredibly devoted.”
“I’m a good multi-tasker. I’m organized,” Flarity said. “I’m very blessed and I have
a very supportive family.”
“Both of us have used this training to teach others and to transform our own
lives,” Mesnikoff said. CSBJ

GIVE! Now Underway:
My Year of Gratitude
Michael Hannigan / [email protected]
Every year thousands of people in the Pikes Peak region give back and get
involved with local non-profits through a fun, effective program with a
simple motto: Live Here. Give Here. In 2013, 59 dynamic, local non-profits
represent the most competitive group of applicants ever, including PPCF’s
own Pinello Ranch, Pikes Peak Urban Gardens, and UpaDowna.
Vision without funding is just a
hallucination.
The GIVE! campaign will draw to a close
in just two short weeks, and people all over
the Pikes Peak region are realizing what
a powerful philanthropic tool GIVE! has
become.
Donate today at indygive.com!
I hope you will take a moment to celebrate
the 59 visionary organizations represented in GIVE! More importantly, I
hope you will recognize the visionary people who work for these critical
community resources.
While space in this column precludes me from listing everyone, I’d like
to help you understand the passion, dedication, intelligence, the energy,
and hard work behind each and every GIVE! nonprofit.
• Ann at Safe Place for Pets tirelessly advocates for pet adoption.
• Deborah at Imagination Celebration pours energy into community
creativity.
• Natalie at the Manitou Art Center inspires collaboration among artists.
• Jim and Birgitta make theater exciting for everyone at the MAT.
• Kristy at Citizens Project makes sure everyone’s voice is heard.
• Steve at Concrete Couch helps people make magic through community
art.
• Larry at Pikes Peak Urban Gardens believes everyone can grow their
own food.
• Noreen at Community Partnership cares about ‘kiddos’ who need a
head start in life.
• Nick at Fostering Hope stabilizes foster kids and helps them heal.
• Alicia at Catamount encourages kids to learn about and care for
nature.
• Cory at Medicine Wheel advocates for state-of-the-art trail design.
• Rebecca at RMFI rallies thousands of volunteers to restore fire and
flood damaged areas.
• Susan at TOSC believes we need a world-class trail network in the
Pikes Peak region.
• Howard at Energy Resource Center builds self-sufficiency one
homeowner at a time.
• Nicole at Kids on Bikes changes a kid’s view of the future, one bike at a
time.
• Janet at Teller County Search and Rescue selflessly drops everything to
respond when needed.
• Lori at NAMI gives hope to families affected by mental illness.
And there are 42 others... with incredible people, every one, every day,
working for us.
These folks are our colleagues, our friends, our neighbors. When
they wake up each morning, they ask: “How can I make life better for
everyone?”
How can we help them accomplish that daily goal?
It’s really easy: Just GIVE! It’s the least we can do, because hallucinating
about our future just isn’t productive.
Why I Choose Colorado Springs
Sara Barad / [email protected]
As the holidays approach, I am wrapping gifts,
spreading cheer, and bracing myself for the
inevitable barrage of questions from wellmeaning friends: “You still live in Colorado
Springs?” “Why?” “What is there to DO
there?” “When are you planning to move?”
This is indicative of a larger problem, which
has received a lot of press and attention lately:
brain drain.
The mass exodus of young professionals from
the Pikes Peak region is causing city leaders
to call for regional investments to attract
and retain young professionals. While I agree that a soccer stadium,
affordable downtown housing, and several new museums will improve
our city, they are not the reason I am committed to staying in Colorado
Springs.
Colorado Springs is my hometown, and, because of that, I have had
opportunities that I wouldn’t have had anywhere else. Through
elementary, middle, and high school, I built relationships with
organizations and people such as Jim and Birgitta at the Millibo Art
Theatre, Sally Hybl, Susan Dawn Carson, and Becca Sickbert at the
Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center, and countless other community
leaders.
When I attended Colorado College, I strengthened my relationships
with the two organizations by volunteering, interning, teaching,
and performing. These experiences led me to create my own major
in Arts Administration, and become involved in more community
organizations: Concrete Couch, Springs Ensemble Theatre, Manitou
Arts Center, COPPeR, the Colorado Springs Independent, KRCC, etc.
By the time I graduated from college, my networks and connections
had built me a job with the Pikes Peak Community Foundation, where
I can continue to serve and engage with the community that gave me so
much.
This year, when confronted with my concerned friends’ questions,
instead of sheepishly shrugging, shaking my head, and mumbling
incoherently until they change the subject, I will explain that I have far
too much invested in this community to justify leaving. The
question shouldn’t be: how can Colorado Springs invest
in young professionals; it should be: how can we convince
young professionals that Colorado Springs is worthy of
their investment?
