ENJOY THE TRAILS IN<br />

GREENWOOD VILLAGE<br />

With the spring weather upon us, I want to share<br />

some important warm weather walking<br />

tips as we enjoy the 47 miles of<br />

Greenwood Village trails. A brisk daily<br />

walk can be less taxing on your joints<br />

than running and other cardio exercises<br />

— but it still gets your heart rate up if<br />

you keep a quick pace. Research also<br />

found that averaging 4,400 daily steps<br />

per day reduces mortality by 41 percent.<br />

And that rate progressively improves up<br />

to about 7,500 steps.<br />

George Lantz<br />

Here are some tips to keep in mind:<br />

Timing: Try to avoid exercising outside<br />

in the hot part of the day. It is usually<br />

hottest between noon and 3 p.m.<br />

303-486-5741 APPRECIATION FOR<br />

Hydrate: Drink water before, during and after physical<br />

activity, even if you do not feel thirsty. Bring a bottle<br />

of water with you, or plan water stops along your<br />

route.<br />

Dress Appropriately: Wear lightweight, light-colored,<br />

loose-fitting clothes. Moisture-wicking fabric can be a<br />

big help. Protect yourself from the sun with sunglasses,<br />

a hat or visor and plenty of sweat-resistant sunscreen.<br />

Listen To Your Body: Take frequent breaks in the<br />

shade, and drink water before you are thirsty. Allow<br />

yourself time to adapt to the heat — some experts say<br />

this can take from 4 to 14 days. You may not be able<br />

to work out for as long or hard when it is very hot.<br />

Doctor’s Orders: Check with your healthcare<br />

professional before starting any exercise routine or<br />

moving your workout outdoors if you have<br />

cardiovascular disease, diabetes, or any medical<br />

concerns. Certain medications like beta blockers, ace<br />

receptor blockers, ace inhibitors, calcium channel<br />

blockers and diuretics can exaggerate the body’s<br />

response to heat.<br />

Buddy Up: If you can, work out with a partner for<br />

safety and fun!<br />

The Village has miles of wonderful trails to explore.<br />

NEW ARAPAHOE COUNTY<br />

HEALTH DEPARTMENT<br />

Since 1966, Tri-County Health Department (TCHD) has<br />

been providing public health services for Arapahoe, Douglas,<br />

and Adams counties. In 2021, Douglas County, followed by<br />

Adams County, announced their intention to leave TCHD.<br />

With those departures, it became necessary for Arapahoe<br />

County to form their own public health department to meet<br />

the needs of residents and businesses. This department will<br />

be in place starting January 1, 2023.<br />

To meet this timeline, the Arapahoe Board of County<br />

Commissioners set up a project team to guide the<br />

development of a new health department. The project team<br />

was tasked to:<br />

• Understand and define the public health services within<br />

the County.<br />

• Prioritize a list of services for consideration.<br />

• Establish communications with stakeholders.<br />

WILDFIRE PREVENTION AND READINESS<br />

SIX LESSONS FROM<br />

THE MARSHALL FIRE<br />

Could a wildfire like the Marshall Fire occur in our fire<br />

district? Yes. And because it could occur here, it’s important<br />

that we consider lessons from that devastating wildfire and<br />

act on them.<br />

South Metro Fire Rescue’s Community Risk Reduction<br />

Bureau and its <strong>web</strong>site are great sources for information on<br />

wildfire mitigation. Most property owners could benefit from<br />

the following mitigation tips:<br />

• Remove dead leaves and needles from gutters regularly.<br />

• Remove dead leaves and needles from the base of exterior<br />

walls and from under decking.<br />

• Remove junipers from within 30 feet of any home,<br />

business, church or other structure.<br />

Mitigation is effective at protecting our families and property<br />

from low- and moderate-intensity wildfires. The Marshall<br />

Fire was pushed by hurricane-force winds with gusts<br />

exceeding 100 mph. Mitigation is not effective against highand<br />

extreme-intensity wildfires. That is Lesson 1.<br />

• Lesson 2: When extreme wildfires are burning near or<br />

through neighborhoods, the only option is evacuation.<br />

• Lesson 3: It’s critical that residents register for their<br />

county’s reverse emergency notification systems. We have<br />

to opt-in to add our cell phones to the contact lists for<br />

pre-evacuation and evacuation alerts from the sheriff’s<br />

offices.<br />

• Those alerts include information on the incident, its<br />

location, its predicted growth, and where evacuees<br />

should go. However, if you’re in a neighborhood or<br />

other area threatened by an approaching wildfire, you<br />

can evacuate before receiving an alert.<br />

• Lesson 4: All families need a neighborhood evacuation<br />

plan. It should identify a location in a different zip code<br />

where family members will meet if they are separated<br />

when an evacuation is ordered or become separated while<br />

evacuating. It also should consider options for children<br />

old enough to stay home alone on any other day, but not<br />

old enough to drive.<br />

• Lesson 5: We all need a family communications plan. As<br />

you are packing your car, you probably shouldn’t answer<br />

calls from concerned friends and family about the<br />

impending disaster. Instead, they should call a designated<br />

family member who will act as the family information<br />

officer. You can check-in when you’re able.<br />

• Lesson 6: Inventory<br />

your home now<br />

before an emergency<br />

occurs. That<br />

inventory will make<br />

your interactions<br />

with your insurance<br />

agent much easier.<br />

As you create the<br />

inventory, you’ll<br />

know if your<br />

insurance policy<br />

covers the proper<br />

value of the home<br />

and its contents.<br />

preparedness, visit<br />

GOVERNMENT<br />

HELP YOUR INSURANCE<br />

COMPANY HELP YOU<br />

Is your home insurance policy adequate? If a fire damages or<br />

destroys your house, will your insurance policy cover both<br />

the structure and all of its contents?<br />

When was the last time you checked your coverage?<br />

Insurance agents recommend reviewing coverage annually to<br />

make sure recent purchases or modifications to homes and<br />

their contents are covered adequately. I don’t want any of you<br />

to be interviewed after a fire or other incident lamenting that<br />

your policy was inadequate.<br />

If a fire or other disaster does damage your home, you can<br />

help your insurance company by providing it with a detailed<br />

inventory of your home. Several insurance company <strong>web</strong>sites<br />

suggest an updated inventory will help you settle your<br />

insurance claim faster, verify losses for tax purposes, and help<br />

you purchase the proper amount of insurance.<br />

This inventory should include a brief description of each<br />

item including its age, current value, make, model and serial<br />

number. Consider home electronics, furniture, art,<br />

IS MULCH A FIRE ATTRACTANT<br />

Mulches can be used to conserve moisture and reduce weed<br />

growth. To reduce fire danger, it is best to use a non-organic<br />

mulch such as pea gravel or stone, but leaf mold or compost is<br />

also acceptable. Mulch can be organic or inorganic. South<br />

Metro Fire Rescue does not recommend using pine bark, thick<br />

layers of pine needles or other mulches that readily carry fire.<br />

appliances, toys, clothing, tools,<br />

dishes, utensils, jewelry, yard tools<br />

and bedding. For clothing, count the<br />

items you own by category (such as<br />

coats or shoes) rather than listing<br />

each item separately unless certain<br />

items are particularly valuable. Attach<br />

sales receipts, purchase contracts and<br />

appraisals whenever possible.<br />

Additionally,<br />

• Store this inventory offsite, in a<br />

safe deposit box or electronically<br />

in the cloud.<br />

• Take photos.<br />

Personal Wildfire Action Planner<br />

• Make a video.<br />

• Create a back-up copy and leave it with a relative or friend<br />

who lives elsewhere.<br />

• Update your inventory annually, before reviewing your<br />

insurance policy.<br />

Describing everything in your home is a daunting challenge.<br />

Start small. Pick one room and inventory its contents before<br />

moving to another room. If you do a couple rooms each<br />

Saturday, you’ll be done in no time.<br />

Renters should complete an inventory, too, in addition to<br />

having renter’s insurance. The landlord’s policy probably<br />

doesn’t cover your belongings. Protect yourself with a solid<br />

renter’s insurance policy.<br />

Waiting until after the emergency, when your life is upside<br />

down and you are buried under an avalanche of emotions, to<br />

compile an inventory will doom the process to stress and<br />

failure. Prepare yourself and your family today. <strong>GV</strong><br />

Elementary to plant a tree at Westlands<br />

Park on Friday, April 15.<br />

Did you know in 2021, Greenwood Village<br />

invested over $350,000 in the planting and<br />

care of trees? That’s almost $23 per<br />

resident. This included the planting of over<br />

300 trees, pruning of 800 trees, and<br />

removal of 100 trees. Greenwood Village<br />

has 12,000 trees in the Village, and nearly<br />

SNARF’S SANDWICHES<br />

8775 East Orchard Road, Suite 801 • eatsnarfs.com/tech-center<br />

Open Daily from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. • 720-693-9350<br />

In the mood for handcrafted, oven-toasted, and ridiculously<br />

addictive subs? Welcome to the newly opened Snarf’s<br />

Sandwiches located at 8775 East Orchard Road #801 here in<br />

Greenwood Village. Snarf’s award-winning submarine<br />

sandwiches are made to order using only the finest<br />

ingredients including premium meats and cheeses, crisp<br />

veggies, their own blend of giardiniera peppers, and signature<br />

oven-toasted bread.<br />

It all began with one man’s quest for the world’s finest<br />

sandwich. In 1996, founder Jimmy Seidel “Snarf” opened his<br />

very first Snarf’s Sandwiches in Boulder in what’s<br />

affectionately referred to as “The Shack.” “Snarfs” was the<br />

nickname given to Jimmy in college because he loves to eat<br />

and tended to “snarf down” his food. Based in Colorado and<br />

family owned, Snarf’s has grown to over 25 locations in<br />

Colorado, Texas, and Missouri. According to Marketing<br />

Director Helen Wood, “We’ve had our eyes on Greenwood<br />

Village for quite a while. A lot of our customers have been<br />
