The SPOT OutdoorAdventure Camp

What is The SPOT?Teens: the SPOT is your place to be this summer. You’ve spent the winter conquering Skyrim, surviving the zombie apocalypse, and winning the Hunger Games. Now it’s time to get outside and have some real adventures.

Learn how to raft through whitewater. Climb, jump, and fly between trees on a high ropes course. Bike down some tough trails and show the rest of us how it’s done. Camp in the backcountry and learn real survival tips and strategies. Just because we’re in the woods, it doesn’t mean that we’re eating granola and spam - with us you’ll learn to cook really good food over an open fire.

Of course, every adventurer has to spend some time in civilization. This is why you’ll be catching some of the best events and attractions that our area has to offer at Elitch Gardens, Water World, a Rockies game, and more. And at the end of the summer put all of your newly learned awesome skills to the test with our three day backpacking trip. With our intense three day sessions throughout the summer, you won’t have time to get bored of that same CoD map again and again or another Adventure Time rerun. Because really - isn’t it time to make your own adventures?

Parents: the SPOT is our adventure based summer camp for teens ages 12-16. Each session begins with a day trip on Tuesday and then an overnight trip from Wednesday to Thursday. All outdoor adventure activities are facilitated by professional outfitters and our day to day staff are there to see that your kids are safe, having fun, and completely exhausted when they get home. Don’t you deserve a break this summer too?

LONGMONT— Colorado Sen-ate President Brandon Shaffer an-nounced Monday night via You-Tube that he will run for the 4thCongressional District in 2012.The video shows Shaffer addres-

sing a group of friends and familyduring a backyardparty on theFourth of July.“A lot of you

know that wehave been consid-ering a very im-portant decisionin our family,”Shaffer said. “Be-fore we an-nounced our decision to the gener-al public, we thought we’d bring agroup of very close friends andfamily and neighbors and peoplewho have been very supportiveover the years together to sharethe decision that we’ve made withyou first.

“Tomorrow (Tuesday), I amgoing to announce that I am an of-ficial candidate for Congress.”

The announcement was metwith cheers by the crowd and ateasing admonition to “Get back tothe food” by Shaffer.

Shaffer, D-Longmont, had con-sidered running in 2008 butstepped aside for the candidacy ofBetsy Markey, who defeated in-cumbent Republican Marilyn Mus-grave. After current U.S. Rep. CoryGardner, a Republican, defeatedMarkey in her bid for re-election,Shaffer’s name was discussed as apossible challenger.

The 4th CD has been at the cen-ter of a re-districting battle by theLegislature, with the exact lines tobe considered by a judge this fall.

LONGMONT— Every Inde-pendence Day, the biggestbackyard party in town can

be found at Thompson Park.“I’m all about the parades and

stuff, but this is way better,” saidShelley Kunselman, who hit thepark at 7 a.m. to grab a shady pic-nic spot. “I see a bunch of people Iknow, chat with them, and thenmake the rounds again in about anhour. And you can’t beat the mu-sic.”Or the heat. Temperatures rose

through the 90s as the annualLongmont Symphony Orchestraconcert and July 4 community pic-nic went on. Most families huggedthe shade of a tree or an awning;two members of the LongmontChorale briefly passed out fromthe warmth.“No rain this year,” opening

singer Dan Wright told the crowdwith a chuckle. “Remember lastyear?”Without the showers that wash-

ed the park in 2010 and almostcanceled the event, patriotic deco-rations had free reign to take overevery available space and table.Tri-color strawberries, with white

chocolate and blue sprinkles.Cookies shaped like the continen-tal United States. Even a smallwhite “Old Glory” Christmas tree,decorated to the hilt with wood-

block flags, “USA” cutouts and anUncle Sam teddy bear, among oth-er star-spangled touches.“Everyone likes it,” said the

tree’s owner, Kathy Howell of

Erie. “I am starting to reach satu-ration, but for now, I just keepadding things.”Some keep adding people as

well. For Evelyn Josephsohn, thiscame in the middle of her familyreunion, with 25 people descend-ing on Longmont from as far awayas Montana.“This is quite a special Fourth of

July for us,” she said, as the familyset up its picnic table, entered inthe afternoon’s contest as “Red,White and Balloons,” a namethought up by Josephsohn’sgranddaughter.It’s also the young ones, she

noted, who were responsible forthe family’s picnic site: as close tothe cannon for the 1812 Overtureas possible. That same cannonmade a few picnickers jump dur-ing the national anthem, as a mis-chievous Kim Knake set it off intime for “The bombs bursting inair ...”“There seems to be a quick trig-

ger around here,” joked formerMayor Roger Lange, a master ofceremonies for the afternoon.

DENVER— One gay man video-taped for the project shares thathis extended family reacted to hisnews of testing positive for HIV byasking him to use a plastic plate,cup and utensils at mealtime.Another subject, a 14-year-old

boy infected with HIV at birth byhis mother, answers a questionabout future dating. He thinks itcould work “if she could just ac-cept me for who I am rather thanwhat I have.”

Their testimonies now liveamong 173 other interviews re-corded so far by The Positive Proj-ect, a Denver nonprofit organiza-tion dedicated to getting personalstories with information about HIVto those infected, affected and atrisk through a free, digital, onlinearchive.Tony Miles and Dawn Shearer,

both mental health professionals,

launched the project in 2000. Yearsof privately listening to the testimo-nies of HIV-positive clients con-vinced them that a related video ar-chive could be another resource infighting the HIV/AIDS pandemic,which hit the United States 30years ago this summer.Patient confidentiality prevented

them from sharing their clients’stories.“But anyone who participates in

the project needs to be preparedfor the fact that clips of their inter-view could show up on NBC Night-ly News,” Miles said.The duo got interviewees
