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 />

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 />

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 />

Environmental Club from Greenwood<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 />
1,300 trees along the High Line Canal in<br />
the Village. <strong>GV</strong><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 />
