<p>BOULDER, CO –January 31, 2020: Homewatch CareGivers of Boulder County presented Susan Finnegan,61, of Longmont with the 2020 Leslie Weidner Award for Excellence in Caregiving. The award was given to Mrs. Finnegan in recognition of her ten-year dedication to providing exceptional care for clients. </p>
<p> Since 2010, Finnegan has worked for the company as a personal care provider, helping her clients stay safe and maintain independence at home. Susan was inspired by her grandmother whom she was very close with and spent a lot of time with. “I really missed my Grandmother after she died in 2008. I decided to go back to school and get a social work certificate with an emphasis in elder care. While I was attending classes I heard about Homewatch CareGivers and felt it would be a good way for me to get involved with the elder population and to honor my grandmothers’ memory.”</p>
<p>Director of Operations, Andrea Bertelsen said, “Susan has been a phenomenal piece to our success since she started back in 2010. Her loyalty and especially her attention to detail is what sets her apart. Clients lover her from the start and that is why she has been with our client, Gary Mahlman, for six years. Susan also helps us out in the field with care management and ensures that our clients are getting the quality of care they deserve.”</p>
<p>To this day, Susan continues to work with Gary. Gary says, “Susan is such a good worker and friend. She comes every week and I know she’ll always be here for me. Susan and I go shopping at King Soopers and Walgreens and she cleans my apartment so well. I’m very glad Susan has been here by my side for six years.”</p>
<p>The expressed feelings by Gary are very mutual with Susan. “I enjoy being with people and I want to make a positive impact. Gary is probably the gentlest, sweetest person I’ve ever known. Although I began working with Homewatch to be around the elderly population, Gary is a few years younger than me! He and I both grew up in the era of really good music and share an appreciation for the sounds of the 70’s and early 80’s. Gary amazes me with his ability to remember musical facts and artists. I have a family member who suffers from the same challenges that Gary has. Being with Gary helps me to understand those challenges better. Gary gives me hope for a happy future for my family member.”</p>
<p>The Leslie Weidner Memorial Award for Excellence in Caregiving was established by Homewatch CareGivers of Boulder County in January of 2007 in memory of their managing nurse, Leslie Weidner. Each January, a Homewatch caregiver is selected who embodies the compassion, dedication and kindness that Mrs. Weidner brought to Boulder seniors for over twenty years. Mrs. Weidner lost her battle with breast cancer in December of 2006.</p>

<p>The production of <strong style="font-style: italic;">HEISENBERG</strong>, by Simon Stephens, draws to a close this weekend, 8/31 and 9/1, at <a href="http://thedairy.org/Online/Heisenberg" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Dairy Center for the Arts.</a> </p>
<p>The title has nothing to do with the character in AMC’s “Breaking Bad”. British playwright Simon Stephens borrows his title from the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle of quantum physics. The play tells the story of an electric encounter that thrusts two strangers, Georgie, a 42-year-old bipolar woman, and Alex, a 75-year-old butcher, into a fascinating and life-changing game. In the words of renowned physicist, Richard Feynman, “I will not describe it in terms of an analogy with something familiar. I will simply describe it.” (<u>See</u> Richard P. Feynman, “The Messenger Lectures”, 1964, MIT.) And that is exactly what Stephens does with his unconventional take on the opposites attract theory of relationships; he simply describes it and leaves it up to us to struggle with our desire to see it in terms of something familiar. In a nod to quantum entanglement, the play is also a study in the way that two people can change each other, in this case for the better.</p>
<p><em><strong>HEISENBERG</strong></em> is directed by Chris Thatcher, an acting coach and director formerly from Los Angeles. Thatcher has run the “Chris Thatcher Acting Studio” in Boulder for over a decade, and is the founder of “Drala Productions”. He says “we chose this play to expose our community to the diversity of human relationships free from judgment or bias.” Thatcher happens to have another auspicious Boulder connection: He was an undergrad theater major and advisee of the late Boulder theatre luminary, Gordon Wickstrom.

<p>Playwright Simon Stephens is internationally renowned for his award-winning play, <em>The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time</em>. Boulder’s production of <em><strong>HEISENBERG</strong></em> stars Kasey Lohman and Danny Mann, and is running at the Carsen Theater at The Dairy Center for the Arts in an intimate audience configuration as it was in the original Off-Broadway and Broadway productions.

<p></p>
<p>Written by Colorado teenager, Maya Claridge, who is also the spokesperson for Bullied To Bold, the book is striking a chord with teens and adults alike. "Every parent, teacher, grandparent and adult who interacts with teenagers today should read this book," said a representative for the Anti-bullying Coalition of America. "It depicts a raw and real case of bullying, showing adults how easily it happens without us knowing and how deadly it can be."</p>
<p></p>
<p>Claridge wrote the book to accompany her Bullied to Bold tour and to share more of her story. "I want kids to know that they can overcome being bullied and I want parents to know how to identify the signs," Claridge said.</p>

An estimated 200 Fireside Elementary children proudly rode their bikes and many more participated by walking or carpooling to school. Fireside has been a Green Star school since 2011. Students, parents and staff continue to work hard towards a zero waste way of life. A contest was held with multiple other Boulder Valley School District schools to award a smoothie party to the entire student body of the school with the most bike riding participants. Students also registered for a chance to win a new helmet from Louisville Cyclery.

<p>Claridge made an appearance on Colorado & Company last Friday to promote the tour and the release of her new single hit, entitled, PUT IT DOWN, a song she wrote and recorded to accompany the tour and remind kids that they can put down their fear and their pain and rise about being bullied.</p>

<p>Booked in many schools throughout the metro area, the response from both teachers and students has been overwhelming. A Silver Hills Middle School 6th grade teacher said, "Maya is amazing and the impact she has had on our students was incredible. I want her to come back and speak to the 6th graders every year." Another teacher told us that Maya's presentation was "better than any anti-bullying group we have brought into the school thus far." Students actually break in tears while she is speaking. "Maya opens her presentation with a video that is so real, it choked me up," said one 6th grade student. "Her message is powerful," a school counselor told us.</p>
