RECOGNIZING VILLAGE HEROES This month, we honor two young people in our community, Bodie and Gates Piantanida! Bodie, 9, and Gates, 5 accepted a job during their Holiday break to be the dog walkers for the Fitzgerald family. When the Fitzgeralds returned from their trip, it was payday for the Piantanida brothers. These little guys had already decided they would not accept money from the Fitzgerald family. They told Mrs. Fitzgerald that they wanted to give her a Christmas present by not accepting their “paycheck.” Mrs. Fitzgerald insisted and paid them anyway. When Bodie and Gates got home with their paycheck, they asked their mom, Lisa, if she could take them to the store because they wanted to spend Mrs. Fitzgerald’s Christmas present on socks for homeless kids and they did just that! They purchased 37 pairs of socks for the Greenwood Village Sock Drive. Thanks Bodie and Gates for your sincere kindness and generosity to help others in need! In addition your efforts put us over the top in the South Metro Sock Challenge (see last month’s Newsletter). If you would like to nominate a Village Hero — someone who has done a great deed or made a remarkable contribution in the Village in a big or small way, please send RAMBLE WITH RON Due to the fall and winter seasons, Ramble with Ron will be suspended until the spring. If you have some ideas or suggestions about living or working in Greenwood Village that you would like to share with Mayor Ron Rakowsky, send him an email at rrakowsky@greenwoodvillage.com or call the Mayor’s Office at 303-486-5745. Boy Scout Troop 345 with Planning & Zoning Commission members. your nomination to mgallegos@greenwoodvillage.com.

WATERFOWL DIE-OFFS FOUND IN VILLAGE AND METRO AREA A few ducks, and several geese, have recently been reported dead in the Denver metro area including a few dead geese found in Greenwood Village. Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) veterinary staff conducted a necropsy of several of the dead geese and found that the most significant factor to their deaths is a bacterial infection with Riemerella anatipestifer, also known as “New Duck Disease.” This disease affects primarily waterfowl, but it can cause disease in poultry and other birds. All of the dead birds examined from the Denver metro die-off have tested negative for avian influenza viruses and avian paramyxoviruses (Newcastle disease). Greenwood Village is home to large populations of resident Canada Geese year-round. In addition, large migratory flocks of geese make temporary residence in the area during the winter months. These large, congregated flocks create ideal conditions for various illnesses to travel amongst their populations. If you observe dead waterfowl, please call the Police Department’s Animal Control Officers at 303-773- 2525 for removal. It is important that you do not make contact with dead or sick fowl and do not allow your pets to have interactions. For more information, please call Colorado Parks and Wildlife Northeast Region Service Center at 303-291-7227. GV PG. 4 GV NEWSLETTER | MARCH 2019
