Carbondale’s community supported, weekly newspaper

Edgar the raven wascaught reciting poetrylast week on his perchjust outside of Car-bondale. He is thenamesake of poetEdgar Allan Poe, whogained fame with hisnarrative poem “TheRaven” in 1845. TheEdgar shown here reportedly comesaround about fivedays a week andhangs out with a horseand two goats on RedHill. A nearby residentfeeds him his favoritemeal, which is grapesand organic oatsquares. After threemonths of visits, thecurious bird almosteats out of thewoman’s hand. On a related note, The Sopris Sun launches its monthly PoetryCorner this week, and readers should be assured there will be a dearth of poetry on thesepages “nevermore.”

Poetry heals thewounds inflicted by reason. — Novalis

The Roaring Fork Valley—Carbon-dale in particular—is blessed with anabundance of poets who are practic-ing, honing, sharing, and publishingtheir work. There arewriting groups thatmeet regularly in Glen-wood, Basalt, Aspen,and right here in Car-bondale.

To take advantage of all this talentand dedication, and to offer a platformfor local poets, The Sopris Sun will befeaturing a regular (most likelymonthly) poetry column. Poets wholive in the 81623 zip code will be givensome priority since The Sun is, afterall, Carbondale’s community sup-ported newspaper, but the work of allValley poets will be considered. The

column will appear (loosely) in theissue that comes out the last week ofevery month, providing there is space.Space will depend, in large part, onhow much advertising and donor sup-port is available for each issue. (If youwould like to sponsor the poetry cor-ner, contact your friendly poetry edi-tor at the address listed below.)

GuidelinesAny local poet inter-

ested in sharing his or herwork in the paper should

send one to three poems in the body ofan e-mail to our poetry editor, Jose Al-cantara, at [email protected]. Allwork will remain the property of itsauthor.

Please include your full name andtown of residence. Poems not selectedfor publication in the next issue will bekept for future consideration.

We kick off this first installmentwith a poem by Jose himself.

Hell Roaring

Bundling all of my sins in a blue bagI strap on my holey sandalsand head to church.

Where I live, everything is high gothic –vaulted ceilings, shaded columnslight falling in beams through blue green windows.

Someone let the birds in again.Their songs filling the chapellike smoke from a censer.

Bending low, I hear the Hosannas blowingfrom the untransubstantiated trumpetsthat will later turn to red currant wine.

The apse is a hundred silver spires.The altar, like everything on highis stone gilt in snow.

Four miles in, I drop to my knees,immerse my head in the gurgling font,and shudder at the icy hand of God.

Introducing e Sopris Sun’s new Poetry Corner

Beautiful people, you areDear Editor:

About a month ago I discovered the beau-tiful people of Carbondale. I was on my firstcamping trip with my wife and another fam-ily at Paonia State Park. Sunday we returnedthrough Carbondale on our way home toBroomfield. My friend was pulling a smallcamper when the wheels on his pickuplocked up. He managed to get pulled over tothe side of the road. He had hit a boulder inthe road on the way to Paonia and damagedhis transmission, which gave out as we ap-proached Carbondale.

We decided to tow the camper with mymachine and have his Honda towed to thedealer in Glenwood Springs. The light plugon his trailer did not match my Highlanderand we were directed to the local NAPAdealer. The young man at NAPA spent a lotof time helping us get the adaptors installedto make the trip safely. We thanked him anddecided to have lunch at your diner in town.

As we parked behind the diner, a Mexi-can-American gentleman in a pickup trucktried to communicate something about ourtrailer. We finally understood that we had leftone of the wheel chocks several miles back,where we had first broken down. Wethanked him and decided to eat first beforegoing back to retrieve it. We finished lunchand when we approached our rig, we foundthe wheel chocks, beside the trailer. Appar-ently unsure if we understood his message,your fine citizen had gone back to retrievethe missing chocks, saving us the round trip.We spotted his pickup parked nearby and lefta note of gratitude.

The beautiful people of Carbondale

turned a frustrating day into a delightful cel-ebration of people helping people. Thankyou Carbondale!

Disappointed with First FridayDear Editor:

The direction that First Fridays has takenis disappointing, appalling and a far cry from

what its founders envisioned. Over 10 yearsago several galleries were dismayed by thefailure to promote the local business by thechamber of commerce or any other group.

The result of numerous meetings was tostart an “art walk” the first Friday of eachmonth to introduce people to artists andgallery offerings in town. We envisionedstrolls along Main Street where people couldvisit galleries, meet artists and share a glass ofwine. After First Fridays became successful,the galleries were delighted that the chamberwas becoming interested and it soon tookover with the arts council.

Shortly after the chamber took over thereshould have been some clue about thechange of philosophy when a First Friday’sfocus was on golf. The art walk concept wasalmost forgotten as the focus shifted to thestreets and entertainment, and a circus at-mosphere was achieved.

First Fridays took on a life of its’ own.Crowds came. Who was I to complain?Though it rarely made any difference insales, First Fridays gave us an opportunityto see old friends and make new ones, andshow them the works of the exceptionalartists we represent.

The problem lies in the chamber’s recentdirection to sell sponsorships for vendors toset up on Main Street. These sponsorships, ac-cording to the chamber, are necessary to keepFirst Friday going, because they aren’t gettingenough support from Carbondale businesses.

Did I mention that two of the businessesthat Carbondale closes its’ streets for are aGlenwood Springs car dealer and a rug storein Basalt and Aspen? The proliferation of

The “back to school” buzz at CrystalRiver Elementary School this fall is not justabout eager students with shiny new schoolsupplies getting to know their new teachers.This year, the start of the school year is alsoabout the start of a new chapter of CRES.

Teachers, parents and community mem-bers are being invited to participate in a se-ries of Vision to Action meetings this fallwith the goal of selecting or developing anew model and a new identity for CRES byDecember 2014.

Crystal River Elementary School staffparticipated in an all-day retreat last weekfacilitated by Colin Laird, who is also theThird Street Center director. Through aprocess of exploring their core educationalbeliefs and discussing the strengths and chal-lenges of the school, the staff identified somepossible models and strategies for the schoolto adopt. Laird will continue to work withthe staff over the next couple of weeks to so-lidify the potential options.

Once the staff comes to consensus aboutthe models they would like to explore, com-munity members will have the opportunityto learn about and weigh in on each modelat the Vision to Action meetings. A Com-munity Action Team, consisting of parents,community members, and school and dis-trict staff was formed this summer to helporganize the Vision to Action meetings.

School PTO President Angela Hanley isheading up this team.

“We have an incredibly talented teachingstaff at CRES,” Hanley told The Sopris Sun,“but what we really need is an effectivemodel for focusing the energy and talents ofour teachers. I’m thrilled that the district isgiving us this opportunity to choose a modelthat’s just right for our school.”

Why CRES?Last year, through a series of several meet-

ings involving over 1,000 community mem-bers, the district created a new vision forRoaring Fork chool District schools. This vi-sion includes a list of 17 commitments includ-ing: Students develop resilience, determinationand the belief they can succeed; empower allstaff to create an exceptional environment inwhich to work and go to school; providemeaningful, engaging, experiential learning op-portunities. (The entire list of commitmentscan be found at www.rfsd.k12.co.us ).

Whatever model is adopted by CRES, itwill provide a specific approach for meetingthese commitments.

Why is CRES undertaking this process ofidentifying a new model to align with the newdistrict vision when other schools are not? AsRFSD Assistant Superintendent Rob Stein ex-plained to The Sun, “CRES has been dippingin and out of ‘Priority Improvement Status,’ asthe state defines it, for a number of years. That’sjust one indicator showing that the school is

not performing up to its potential. We’ve alsobeen hearing from the community that theywant to clarify the school’s identity and developsome unique aspects of the school.”

When Stein learned last spring that CRESmight be eligible to join the state’s Turn-around Network he was eager to pursuethat possibility. According to the ColoradoDepartment of Education website, the Turn-around Network provides “targeted sup-port, resources and flexibility” to lowperforming schools with the goal of im-proving school performance and studentachievement, as well as identifying effectivestrategies that could serve as a model forother schools.

Schools are categorized as “Priority Im-provement Status” and “low performingschools” based on the results of their stu-dents’ standardized test scores.

Crystal River Elementary officially joinedthe Turnaround Network last spring. Thenetwork is providing resources to supportthe process of selecting a new model for theschool this year. The network also supportedthe work of five teacher Action Teams thissummer: twenty-seven CRES teachersworked in teams to review all aspects of theschool from academic achievement and par-ent involvement to the social/emotional de-velopment of students. Building on existingstrengths of the school, the teams developedconcrete action steps for helping the schoolimprove in all of these areas.

Crystal River Elementary teacher and Ac-tion Team Coordinator Marie Voss-Patter-son was very pleased with the results of thiswork. “The teachers worked so hard thissummer and their hard work definitely paidoff,” Voss-Patterson said. “They came upwith some very insightful ideas for helpingteachers really reflect on their practice andgetting all kids engaged and challenged.”

Stein emphasized that the work theteacher Action Teams accomplished thissummer will be foundational to the futureof CRES no matter what new models andstrategies are adopted.

According to Stein, all district schoolswill undergo a review process similar to theone that the Turnaround Network providedfor CRES. The action plan that results fromeach review will vary for each school. Thefact that CRES was able to join the Turn-around Network enabled the school to get ajumpstart on this process.

Stein is very optimistic about CRES. “I’mreally happy so far with the work the staffhas done over the summer and the way theparents and community have rallied in sup-port of the school,” he said. “The conversa-tions we’re having are healthy and positive,at the same time both teachers and parentsrecognize the need for change and transfor-mation in the school.”

Next Steps:The initial Vision to Action meeting willbe held on Sept. 9 from 5:30 to 7:30p.m. at CRES. All community membersare invited to attend.

Change on the horizon at CRES

(Editor’s note: This is the second in a two-part series on the RE-1 School District’sPre-Collegiate program).

By Jimmy SerranoSopris Sun Intern

The Pre-Collegiate program provides aca-demic enrichment and financial support tostudents who will be the first generation intheir family to go to college. It has createdmany opportunities for me to challenge my-self by helping me take rigorous courses andby helping me experience college life duringthe summer. In middle school, there was a se-lection process that began by choosing aca-demically motivated students who werefirst-generation. They were given the chanceto apply and were later interviewed beforebeing accepted into the program. Ten were se-lected that year and I was among them.

Being a member of the Pre-Collegiate pro-gram involves meeting with our mentors, SueEdelstein and Bill Spence, to talk about manytopics such as how to improve time manage-ment and communication skills, as well ashelping us decide what discipline fits us bestfor college. Pre-Collegiate members are also

required to attend summer college programsat CMC, CU Boulder or other similar, rigor-ous programs. I applied and was acceptedinto the Colorado School of Mines’ 2014SUMMET program, which was a very inten-sive, three-week engineering program whereI stayed in the dormitories full-time and tookclasses that covered many topics such astrigonometry, calculus, computer science,physics, geophysics, petroleum engineering,as well as civil and mechanical engineering. Itwas a fantastic experience that opened myeyes to many things including the workloadsassociated with college, as well as the skillsrequired to be successful.

The Pre-Collegiate program is invaluablebecause it offers many preparatory courses,such as the PLAN test for the ACT, that helpsstudents push themselves to the next level. Italso puts them in contact with exceptionallylearned scholars, and helps cover the costs as-sociated with CMC or AP classes so thatmoney is never an obstacle when it comes tochoosing the most intensive classes possible.The Pre-Collegiate program opens doors formany and without its guidance, I would notbe where I am today.

If you’ve wandered into the food co-oplately you may have noticed that it’s a lotmore spacious. The store has expanded,and now has a table and chairs for peopleto hang out, socialize, and eat local or-ganic food.

The Carbondale Community Food Co-operative (CCFC) on Main Street is Car-bondale’s only member-owned naturalgrocery store. There are currently 465member-owners. A $75 lifetime member-ship fee means you own a share of the co-operative, have a voice in decision-making,receive weekend discounts and can orderbulk items. Although the store wouldn’t bewhat it is today without its member-own-ers, anyone and everyone can shop there.

A significant difference between a coop-erative and your average grocery store isthe ownership structure. Large grocerystores are owned by corporations that arelocated outside the Roaring Fork Valley,and distribute profits among managers andshareholders. The CCFC is owned by itsmembers. Profits are reinvested into thestore to expand and improve the selections.Eventually, the co-op hopes to create a div-idend program that returns profits to itsmember owners.

With the recent expansion, CCFC hasstarted a monthly lecture series on differenttopics related to organic food and sustain-able agriculture. The lecture series kicked

off on Aug. 7 with Dr. Jody Powell pre-senting “Natural vs. Organic, What’s theDifference?” She discussed current issuesaround the topic of food labeling andGMO’s. Dr. Powell explained the differencebetween a product labeled organic (onewith a label that reads “made with organic

ingredients”) and one labeled natural. Shealso discussed the possible health dangersof GMOs. The next lecture is scheduled forOctober with David Teitler, known tomany as Dr. Dave, on the issue of mush-rooms and our immune system.

The co-op also offers a monthly mem-

bership appreciation day where all mem-ber-owners receive 10 percent off their pur-chases (instead of the regular 5 percentdiscount on weekends), monthly specialsand a monthly newsletter highlighting newproducts, sales, and interesting naturalfood-related news.

All of the produce carried in the store isgrown to organic standards or beyond, andmuch is from local farmers. “We try to offera lot of local Colorado products,” said LisaEllena, the co-op’s assistant manager. “It’sgreat that we have such an abundance ofhealthy natural products made right here inour state.”

Local products include Gina Cucina’sdelicious soups, Potter Farms cage-freeeggs, Osage Garden’s vegetables and herbs,and honey, cookies, bars, marinades, juicesand more.

The co-op will be hosting a celebrationand fundraiser for the recent expansion onSept. 4 at 6 p.m., at Carbondale BeerWorks. There will be live music from LetThem Roar, food using Colorado ingredi-ents and great door prizes. One dollar ofevery CBW beer sold goes to the co-op.Come by to dance to some great music, eatdelicious food and enjoy some locallybrewed beer, all while supporting your localfood co-op!

Matthew Wampler and Cheyenne Beigh-tel are both finishing their first summer aslifeguards at the John M. Fleet SwimmingPool in Carbondale. Matthew attends Roar-ing Fork High School and Cheyenne goes toGlenwood Springs High School. Both arelooking forward to their junior year. Swim-ming is a core part of each of their lives.Matthew visited the swimming pool on aregular basis each summer as a child andCheyenne had been on the Team Soprisswim team for six years. Due to this, theydecided to become lifeguards and work atthe Carbondale pool.

To become lifeguards, Matthew andCheyenne had to take a lifeguard pre-test.which entailed swimming 300 meters (100meters freestyle, 100 meters breaststroke, and100 meters any style), and treading water fortwo minutes without using their hands. Oncethey passed, they also took a lifeguard certifi-cation class to learn first aid, CPR and to have

in-water training. They then applied to theswimming pool and were accepted. Cheyennebegan in June and Matthew in July.

A typical day for them is about seven tonine hours long. They get to the pool in themorning, clock in and change clothes. Thenthey remove the pool covers and lap lanes.

Once completed, they keep a careful eye outto make sure everyone at the pool is enjoy-ing themselves in a safe manner. When clos-ing they put the pool covers back on andclean the bathrooms.

Matthew and Cheyenne both love theirjob and the people they work with. They

enjoy almost everything about it, save for afew pet peeves. For example, when askedwhat it would take for someone to get whis-tled, Matthew replied, “Running. Everyoneruns.” Cheyenne explained that her petpeeve is babysitting. It annoys her when par-ents drop off their toddlers and expect tohave them watched. None of this gets intheir way though, and they enjoy every sec-ond of their jobs.

When asked whether she has had tojump in to save someone, Cheyenne said“I’ve had to jump in and rescue two dis-tressed swimmers.” Matthew has yet tojump in to rescue anyone, except for the oc-casional child in a floaty.

Generally, more children visit the poolexcept when the swimming lanes are open;during those times, more adults visit. Thereare usually four lifeguards who work for thepool, mainly high school students.

The John M. Fleet Swimming Pool’shours are from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and it willremain open until Sept. 1.

lieved we were contributing, but it wasmostly policy work, strategic work andfundraising. We wanted to get to know peo-ple outside our circle and provide some di-rect, personal help. A neighborrecommended PCP, it struck a chord, and wejumped in.

We soon realized how personally fortu-nate we were. College? An assumption forus … the thing that came after high school.Career? The world was wide open to ourchoices. Shaking hands, eye contact, net-working, which fork to use in a fine restau-rant … these were things we learned byosmosis from college-educated parents andgrandparents. The idea of sharing these skills

with a group of bright teens whose lovingfamilies didn’t have that kind of helpfulbackground was very appealing to us.

“Our” kids are now 16, entering theirjunior year at Roaring Fork High School.How different from the 12-year-olds we metfour years ago! We practically burst with ex-citement at seeing their growth as they expe-rience the world. As mentors, we do our best

to stimulate thoughtful discussion, bring inspeakers who can open new career paths ortell inspirational stories, enhance self esteem,and take mind-expanding field trips to placesranging from an opera at the Wheeler OperaHouse to behind-the-scenes looks at thecourt system and the hospital.

Sopris Sun Staff Report

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is ini-tiating its formal status review of the greatersage-grouse under the Endangered SpeciesAct by requesting information from a broadarray of state and federal agencies andtribes, along with industry and local con-servation partners, about the ground-dwelling bird’s population and efforts toprotect its sagebrush habitat, according toa press release.

During the next several months, the serv-ice will be gathering the best available sci-entific and commercial data to evaluate the

effectiveness of the unprecedented and on-going campaign to protect North America’slargest native grouse and its sagebrush habi-tat. The west’s vast “sagebrush sea” sup-ports an abundance of wildlife.

“We want to be sure we have the best,most up-to-date information on which tobase our determination,” said NoreenWalsh, Regional Director of the service’sMountain-Prairie Region.

In 2010, the service determined that thegreater sage-grouse was a candidate for pro-tection under the Endangered Species Act,but that action was precluded by higher pri-

ority listing actions. The U.S. Fish andWildlife Service (USFWS) agreed, as part ofa 2011 court settlement, to make an initialdetermination on whether to propose thespecies for listing by Sept. 30, 2015.

Federal and state partners are workingto put a comprehensive plan and adequateprotections in place to conserve imperiledsagebrush landscape in the face of threatssuch as fire and invasive species, expandingdevelopment and habitat fragmentation.

To ensure the service can fully considerthe cumulative effect of the conservationwork across the bird’s 165 million-acre

range in advance of September 2015 dead-line, the USFWS is requesting that informa-tion be provided by Dec. 31, 2014.

A long-lived, game bird currently man-aged by the states, the greater sage grouse isdependent on large, unfragmented tracts ofsagebrush containing a healthy understoryof grasses and forbs. Since the settlementera, the greater sage grouse has lost an esti-mated 56 percent of its historic habitat andis now found in 11 western states and twoCanadian provinces. Individual birds mayrange across 230 square miles in the courseof a year.


Rep. Jared Polis (D-Boulder) recently in-troduced the Rocky Mountain Recreationand Wilderness Preservation Act, whichwould safeguard roughly 60,000 acres ofland through wilderness and other desig-nations in Summit and eastern Eagle coun-ties, according to a press release.

“This proposal will benefit wildlife,strengthen our local businesses and econ-omy, and protect our beautiful wildernessin order to ensure it can be enjoyed by gen-erations to come,” said Rep. Polis. “The in-troduction of this bill is just the first step inthe journey to protect our wilderness andstrengthen our economy. I will continue towork with and listen to constituents andcommunity partners, including Conserva-

tion Colorado and others, to preserve thenatural beauty that our home is known for.”

Rep. Polis announced his bill at an eventin Breckenridge honoring the 50th an-niversary of the Wilderness Act. Represen-tatives from the International MountainBiking Association, A-Basin Ski Resort,Backpacker Magazine, Conservation Col-orado, as well as county and state localelected officials all spoke at the event insupport of Polis’s bill.

“As a business owner in Vail, I’m infavor of more protected wilderness landsand happy to see Congressman Polis intro-duce this bill,” said Tom Mullen, a smallbusiness owner in Vail. “People come herefor the opportunity to hike and be in beau-tiful, quiet areas, and that’s one reason my

business thrives in this mountain resort.”“It was amazing to see such a diverse

group of people all supportive of this bill,”said Will Roush of the Wilderness Workshopwho attended the event. “Rep. Polis did anamazing job of listening to the communityand crafting a bill that benefits everyone.”

Over the past five years, local commu-nity members have lobbied to protect theCentral Mountains. The legislation wouldadd new lands to Ptarmigan Peak, HolyCross, and Eagles Nest wilderness areas aswell as establishing three new wildernessareas: Hoosier Ridge, Tenmile, andWilliams Fork and the Porcupine GulchProtection Area. To protect important landsand trails for mountain biking and otherrecreation the legislation also includes the

Tenmile Recreation Management Area, arecreation hotspot.

People come to the Central Mountainsto hike, camp, ski, kayak, raft, hunt, fish,mountain bike, horseback ride, and useATVs, and snowmobiles. Outdoor recre-ation $13.2 billion in consumer spendingand is responsible for 125,000 jobs thatpay $4.2 billion in salaries and wages, ac-cording to some reports and studies.

A Wilderness Workshop spokesman saidthat Rep. Polis’ bill is a critical element inthe effort to enact the comprehensive pro-posal from Sen. Mark Udall that includesadditional lands in western Eagle andPitkin counties. Maps and text of the billare available on Congressman Polis’s web-site polis.house.gov/wilderness/.

interview skills and approaches to criticalthinking. We also seek special opportunitiesto help them gain a broader worldview sothey’ll have less to adjust to when they go tocollege. We present the opportunities andprovide references, but it is up to the studentsto pursue them. Examples have includedcommunity service trips to Thailand, NewOrleans, and Africa; opera lessons at theAspen Music Festival and School; summeracademics at the Colorado School of Mines;participation in Teen Socrates at the AspenInstitute; representation on a Roaring ForkSchool District interview team to select a staffmember; and more.

Little did we realize how much the kidsand their families would share with us, and

enrich our lives here in Bonedale. We seethem around town and share smiles andhugs. We’ve come to enjoy and respect Roar-ing Fork High School, whose staff we findto be dedicated to challenging and growingits students. The kids recommend books andfilms that connect us to youth culture. Withour Latino students, we have earned con-nections in their community, which is somuch a part of Carbondale but so little ex-perienced by many gringos. We’ve revisitedour own strengths and weaknesses in theprocess of deciding what we have to offerthem. We’ve seen children grow into focusedyoung adults who are seeking intellectualand life challenges, identifying theirstrengths, and looking toward their futures.We’ve earned the trust of these young peo-ple, a most precious thing.

We are especially pleased to be able tocollaborate in this Sopris Sun issue with ourmentee Jimmy Serrano. When we metJimmy and his parents, his father looked usin the eye and said, “Jimmy is ourhope.” Part of our job is to help parents un-derstand what is needed and expected fortheir children to succeed in college. Antonioand Maria, who emigrated as non-English-speaking political refugees from El Salvador,have consistently encouraged Jimmy. Whenwe met him as a seventh grader, his personalexploration of string theory sent Bill, whohas a doctorate in geophysics, to the Web toget current! Since then, Jimmy has openedup to be an all-round scholar and schoolparticipant. Initially resistant to school ac-tivities, he has become a mentor to elemen-tary school children, a participant in Mock

Trial, and maintained a 4.0 average whiletaking both AP and CMC courses as a soph-omore. This summer he was chosen fromhigh school applicants across the country tospend three weeks at the Colorado School ofMines. Like most of our “Team PCP,” Jimmyis learning not only to take whatever societythrows at him, but to take it and turn it intoan opportunity. He, as do each of them, hasa great future ahead of him.

We are grateful to the Roaring ForkSchool District for providing the basic fund-ing for the program and to the individualswhose private contributions help pay for ad-vanced classes, testing and special experi-ences. The PCP program is fabulous in somany ways, and we hope to be in touch withthese fine young people for years beyondtheir graduation.

vendors is far from the initial intent: to pro-mote downtown businesses. The chamberhas overstepped its bounds in “selling MainStreet.” Many businesses oppose the streetclosure, and vendors pose another element ofcompetition to the already struggling busi-ness owners, who pay premium prices forcentral Main Street locations. It is abhorrentto allow First Fridays to be turned into afundraiser for any group. And the focus forSeptember is motorcycles!

Carbondale merchants should be enragedat the concept of selling Main Street to any-one, much less businesses from other towns.

If the chamber can’t keep First Fridays going,perhaps it’s time to let it revert to its originalplan — a sedate little art walk.

Esselstyn returns to AVHSopris Sun Staff Report

At Aspen Valley Hospital on Sept. 7 at 1 p.m., arearesidents and visitors will have the unique opportunityto hear first-hand from renowned researcher, CaldwellEsselstyn, MD, about what he calls the “nutritional re-versal of cardiovascular disease.” This former surgeonand researcher with the Cleveland Clinic will discussscientific evidence about how the heart disease epi-demic in this country can be stopped in its tracks bychanging what we eat, according to a press release.

In addition to Dr. Esselstyn’s presentation, his wifeAnn will present healthy family recipes and discusspractical matters related to the preparation of plant-based foods. Tasting stations, provided by PyramidBistro, Spring Café, and Aspen Valley Hospital’s Cas-tle Creek Café will give participants the opportunityto taste test plant-based foods. Wrapping up the after-noon will be tours and information about Aspen Val-ley Hospital’s cardiac rehab program.

Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the

United States for both men and women. In the courseof a lifetime, one out of every two American men, andone out of every three American women, will havesome form of the disease. Treatment for heart diseaseincludes expensive cardiac drugs, “clot-busting” med-ications, lasers, stents, and procedures that bypassclogged arteries and widen them with balloons.

Dr. Esselstyn’s research shows that a plant-based,oil-free diet can not only prevent and stop the pro-gression of heart disease, but also reverse its effects.

According to Dr. Esselstyn, “Coronary artery dis-ease need not exist, and if it does, it need notprogress. It is my dream that one day we may entirelyabolish heart disease, the scourge of the affluent, mod-ern west, along with an impressive roster of otherchronic illnesses.”

Dr. Esselstyn holds a B.A. from Yale University anda medical degree from Western Reserve University. Hewas trained as a surgeon at the Cleveland Clinic andSt. George’s Hospital in London. Among other things,he was also a gold medal Olympian on the U.S. row-ing team in 1956, and was awarded the Bronze Starwhile serving in the Army as a surgeon in Viet Nam

in 1968. Dr. Esselstyn’s scientific publications exceed 150. In

1995 he published research on arresting and reversingcoronary artery disease, and 12 years later follow-upresults were published, making it one of the longestlongitudinal studies of its type. He and his wife Annhave followed a plant-based diet for 26 years.

Aspen Valley Hospital event organizer, former ICUnurse, and manager of the cardiac rehab program atAVH, Melody Durham, RN, explains why AVH is pre-senting this program. “We care for patients in the ERor ICU immediately following a cardiac event, or inour rehab program where we’re helping them regainsome semblance of their ‘old’ self. The impact on theirlives is significant, so our efforts toward prevention areextremely important.” Durham is a life-long vegetar-ian and has eaten only a plant-based diet for the pastsix years.

The “Healthy Foods, Health Lives” program is free,but seating and participation are limited. “Because weexpect a large turnout,” said Durham, “we’ve rented atent to accommodate as many people as possible.” Toensure a seat, make a reservation by calling 544-1393.
