GOVERNMENT MAYOR RON reports ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL GREENWOOD VILLAGE DAY Greenwood Village Day once again was successful thanks to many Village employees. Their dedication provided a high level of service to create this memorable event for our residents. While I would like to list and personally thank each member of our staff, I will refrain from doing so for fear of missing someone. If you attended Ron Rakowsky rrakowsky@ greenwoodvillage.com 303-486-5741 the event and interact with Village staff in the near future, please pass on your appreciation directly to them. I had the opportunity to observe Greenwood Village Day happenings and interact with many of you from the steering wheel of a golf cart. It was great to ride around and see all of our residents coming together to enjoy all the festivities, including the fireworks, which was another first-rate performance. I also enjoyed giving ride-alongs to members of the community and staff. PD Sgt. Tracy Thompson with Mayor Ron Saturday, July 27, 2019, will be here before we know it! Make sure you mark your calendar for another fantastic Greenwood Village Day! BACK TO SCHOOL SAFETY Whether your student is headed back to elementary, middle, or high school, <strong>August</strong> can be an exciting yet busy time for everyone as they prepare for another year of learning. With all the fun and excitement, I want to make sure parents as well as students are aware of back to school safety tips to start the new school year right. You can find these important tips, provided by the Police Department on pages 10-11 of this <strong>Newsletter</strong>. If you ever have any concerns related to your child’s safety, including traffic safety around schools, please don’t hesitate to contact your designated Police School Resource Officer or the Police Department at 303-773-2525. SUNDANCE HILLS PARADE During this year’s July 4th celebration, I was honored to participate in two parades with Sundance Hills and Village North neighborhoods. Bud Biggers provided his 1931 Ford Model A, driven by his college junior grandson Cherry Creek High School alumnus Mitchell Biggers, as my parade vehicle. Bud’s grandfather bought the vehicle from a Ford dealer as a new car. In pristine condition, with 32,000 plus miles, it was a memorable ride. Thanks Messieurs Biggers! AN EXCEPTIONAL CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE AT LANDMARK THEATRE Service is exceptional in Greenwood Village! For the past several months, as part of my report, I have highlighted a business and one of their employees who contribute to an exceptional customer service experience. After all, people are our most important asset! Ever since my parents took me to see Bambi and Fantasia, I have enjoyed movies. The cinema experience culminated with my appearance as an extra, with a center screen headshot, in Francis Ford Coppola’s, “Gardens of Stone.” Accordingly, this month, I recognize my favorite movie theatre usher, ticket tearer, and box office keeper — Mr. Ted Posselius. Ted has been at The Landmark Theatre at Greenwood Village since it first opened 10 years ago. A retired attorney, Ted has been Mayor Ron Rakowsky with Bud Biggers and his Model A Ford.
