Keeping your home secure

ECRWSS Carrier Route PreSorted Standard U.S. POSTAGE PAID

Permit No. 371 Cave Creek, AZ

NORTH VALLEY –Feeling safe at home is a high priority – no one wants to be the victim of a crime. But what are the best ways to keep your home and belongings secure? “Some of the best tips we can offer are the most basic ones,” Phoenix Police Sergeant Jona-than Howard noted. “One of our reminders we put out during the holidays was our TLC campaign. It works year round and not just in vehicles. We encourage people to TAKE, LOCK IT, CONCEAL IT.” Removing easily seen cash, electronics, firearms, etc. from cars makes them less attractive to thieves. Howard noted that Phoe-nix PD encourages residents to “secure their property, walk around once in a while and look for obvious situations that would ‘invite’ a thief, and get to know your neighbors so you can watch out for each other.”Maricopa County Sheriff’s Of-fice Officer Christopher Heg-strom concurred with Sergeant Howard’s safety tips. “Lock your doors (homes and cars), and don’t leave valuables in plain sight,” Hegstrom stated. “In the home – leave a light on also a radio or television on to have some noise.”

CAVE CREEK – The Cave Creek Town Coun-cil recall saga has been ongoing since early last year. Now, the candidates are set on the ballot, and the special election is scheduled for March 10. Current candidates will be opposed individually. Susan Clancy is opposing Councilmember Adam Trenk. Dick Esser is op-posing Councilmember Reg Monachino. Steve La-Mar is opposing Council-member Charlie Spitzer. Mark Lipsky is opposing Councilmember Mike Durkin. This recall election will be conducted by mail-in vot-ing. Town of Cave Creek residents will be receiving ballots by mail in early February. Ballots must be mailed in by March 10.

Turning back the hands of time?

Northbound I-17 guardrails repaired

NORTH VALLEY – Arizona was potentially going to join the majority of the USA on Daylight Savings Time, but the bill has been pulled indefinitely. Peoria Representative Phil Lovas had introduced a measure to place Arizona on Daylight Savings Time. The mixed reac-tion from state residents caused Lovas to ask that the bill be put on indefinite hold, according to a statement he released. Since the bill will be held, it will not be moving forward to a vote. The bill would have placed Arizona on Mountain Standard Time and initiated Daylight Sav-ings Time throughout the state. It was intended to address busi-ness issues arising from Arizona

not changing time zones.

Arizona is one of the only states in the US not to observe Daylight Savings Time. Parts of Hawaii do not observe it. Prior to 2006, most of Indiana did not observe DST, but after legislation passed in 2005, Indiana began observ-ing in 2006. The concept of Daylight Savings Time is, essentially, to save daylight. Daylight Sav-ings Time gives an extra hour of light in the fall and winter mornings. It’s also been reported to save electricity, but studies differ on to what extent DST actually saves en-ergy. DST also affects traffic – turning the clocks back or for-ward affects when drivers are

NEW RIVER – The northbound I-17 near New River had brief lane closures Jan. 12 and 13 while Arizona De-partment of Transportation workers repaired guardrails along the side of the freeway. Crews repaired guardrail sections just south of the New River exit and south of the Table Mesa Road exit. To keep up-to-date on roadwork, visit www.azdot.gov.

Locally, the sheriff ’s office provides police services for Anthem east of the I-17 and New River and provides law enforcement through contract services to Carefree and Cave Creek. The Phoe-nix Police Department provides police services to Anthem west of the I-17, Tramonto, and the Sonoran Foothills area. Neither MCSO nor Phoenix PD is reporting a crime wave in the North Valley. “Overall, property crime is down significantly in Phoenix,” Howard noted. “Current crime stats with maps and locations are available at www.raidsonline.com. People can check their neighborhoods for current criminal activity. This is currently a 14-day turn around on reporting.” Hegstrom noted that MCSO had ar-rested a burglary suspect recently. “There was a slight rise in burglaries, but a suspect was taken into custody in connection with the small rash,” Heg-strom said. If you do have your car or home broken into, both MCSO and Phoenix

Keeping Your Home Safefrom pg. 1

PD stress that it’s crucial to call law enforcement immediately. “The first thing you should do is contact your local law enforcement agency,” Hegstrom emphasized. “If your home or car has been burglarized, in order to preserve the crime scene for the deputies to see the aftermath of the crime, limit your contact with the home or car.”“Call the police and avoid touching anything that may have suspect evi-dence, like DNA or fingerprints,” How-ard said. “Avoid going into a burglar-ized home unless you know the suspects have already left. The police will do this for you if you are unsure.” Howard also noted that these crimes often lack witnesses; neighbors can help each other by watching out for suspi-cious activity. Howard recommended that residents record serial numbers and model numbers and take photo-graphs of high-profile items to help the police recover and return the items if they are stolen. Joining the neighborhood watch offers benefits to residents who want to keep watchful for community crime. Law enforcement recommends com-munity alertness, with a reminder for

citizens not to confront suspects on their own. “Being alert and aware of your sur-roundings and watching out for your neighborhood is everyone's responsibil-ity,” Howard noted. “That being said, I would not encourage untrained people to ‘patrol.’” “The Maricopa County Sheriff ’s Of-fice is always looking for good witnesses to a crime; however, we never encour-age the public to act as law enforce-ment,” Hegstrom said. “What we do ask is for you to be vigilant and report any suspicious activity or anything that appears to be out of the ordinary in your neighborhood.” In Anthem, residents can join the Anthem Neighborhood Watch, which works to prevent community crime. For more information, see www.onlineatan-them.com/anthem-neighborhood-watch. Phoenix residents can join a local Blockwatch group. “We encourage people to start or join their local Blockwatch group to ensure their activities in neighborhood safety remain lawful and safe,” Howard said. “Residents can contact their local precinct Community Action Officer for additional information. Precinct and officer information can be found at www.phoenix.gov/police.”

IRS tax season opens Jan. 20

PHOENIX – The IRS will begin accepting tax returns electroni-cally on Jan. 20. Paper tax re-turns will begin processing at the same time. The decision follows Congress renewing a number of “ex-tender” provisions of the tax law that expired at the end of 2013. These provisions were renewed by Congress through the end of 2014. The final legislation was signed into law Dec 19, 2014. The IRS reminds taxpayers that filing electronically is the most accurate way to file a tax return and the fastest way to get a refund.

Game and Fish seeking hunt input

PHOENIX – The Arizona Game and Fish Department is accepting comments on im-proving the hunt guidelines to continue the sustainable management of the state’s game animals, while providing as much hunting recreation as possible. Comments on the existing hunt guidelines may be submit-ted through Feb. 15, either by e-mail to [email protected], or by mail to Hunt Guide-lines, Arizona Game and Fish Department, 5000 W. Carefree Highway, Phoenix, AZ 85086. The hunt guidelines pro-vide the biological and social parameters that make up the “recipes” used by wildlife man-agers to formulate the annual hunt recommendations (sea-son structures, season lengths, season dates, permits allocated, etc.) and results in the hunts in which sportsmen, women and children participate. However, wildlife biologists note that while wildlife is held in the public’s trust, and hunt-ing opportunity is important, using science-based principles in shaping the guideline process remains paramount to assure healthy, sustainable, and diverse wildlife populations in perpetu-ity. After all the comments are received, reviewed and pro-cessed, the department will host public meetings across the state to present the proposed revisions, answer questions, and collect any further public input. A final draft will then be prepared and posted on the department’s Web site prior to being presented to the Arizona Game and Fish Commission in September. The existing hunt guidelines, as well as information on the hunt guidelines process, can be found at www.azgfd.gov/hunt-guidelines.

headed to or from work and whether or not it is dark out at that time. According to Cali-fornia’s Energy Commission, DST can help prevent crime since more people are out and about when it is light out. When the sun rises at its latest in the winter, schoolchildren can end up waiting for the bus in pre-dawn light; turning the clocks back in November helps prevent this. While Daylight Savings Time has benefits, it’s never been popular in Arizona. Most recently, it was enacted in 1967 and given up after one year. The state’s climate plays into this – for example, the sun sets around 7:40 p.m. in July. Observing DST would move clocks forward an hour, mean-ing the sun would be setting at 8:40 p.m. Plus, since the state has not been observing DST for so long, it would be chal-lenging to get used to. So will Arizona be shift-ing to Daylight Savings Time in the future? The issue may arise again. Representative Lovas’ bill will likely not be the catalyst that brings DST to Arizona, however. What do you think? Should Arizona observe Daylight Sav-ings Time? Tell us on Face-book, Facebook.com/TheFoot-hillsFocus.

Around the bluhmin’ Town: Winter chills

Judy Bluhm

Brrr! Have you been able to stay warm lately? The harsh winter blast of frigid cold (and I am talking about Phoenix) has been enough to send more than a few people over the edge. I thought folks only got cranky when we were dealing with relentless triple digits in the Valley of the Constant Inferno, but no, freezing temperatures can make us snap too. It is just “not normal” to have to endure twenty-five degrees and icy wind raging from the north at fifty miles an hour. What the heck is happening here? A few of us lost trees and

watched with horror as pretty green plants got frost-burned and turned a crisp brown. (Clever were the folks who put little Styrofoam cups on their cacti and covered the lanta-nas with sheets). Kids could be seen outside bundled up like snowmen. Local grocery stores claimed there was a run on instant hot cocoa. Did the waterfalls in Anthem really freeze? Some homes in Cave Creek had their pipes burst. New Year celebrations were cancelled due to the storm. People lit up their fireplaces (even on no burn days). Hmm…guess we with the thinning blood are not exactly “prepared” for such drops in the thermostats.

I tried to use a new (well – not exactly new, but trendy now) mind technique called “imagine and it will happen.” A study from John Hopkins Medical School states that if people who are really hungry imagine themselves eating, it will lessen their appetite. This “imagine” technique is sup-posed to work with all sorts of conditions. I thought I would give it a whirl and imagined that the weather was lovely, warm, and balmy. I tried this, especially when I was out walking and facing frigid wind and nasty cold. Maybe my concentration wasn’t quite right, because imagining warmer weather didn’t do too much for me. However, since this tech-nique was first discovered as a success for people who have M&M cravings (and other chocolate affections), I did try it with food. I imagined that I was eating lots of chocolate chip cookies when I made myself a cup of coffee. My “imagine” experiment failed miserably. I ended up obsess-ing about cookies and had to make a batch (of course I gave them to grandkids – after I ate a few). They actually tasted better than I imagined. Oh, but I digress. I was talking about the Nordic blast of weather we’ve been having, not delicious little mouth-watering chocolate cook-ies. Did I mention that my husband bought me a warm scarf, fuzzy hat, and pair of lined gloves? Thoughtful man. When it gets below forty de-grees in Phoenix, I am ready. I also bought my daughter’s little doggy, Chopper, a fine wool sweater. However, when I went to put it on him, he bared his teeth and chased me all around her house like I was trying to murder him! Hey, ten pounds of growling fury was not appropriate when I was only trying to help! I took his little coat back to Wal-Mart and got myself a pair of warm socks instead.


Suzie Black: moving to the future

SCOTTSDALE – Not often a visitor to an exhibit or show of fine art gets the chance to see such variety in an artist’s work. What fun was in store for the visitor that met local artist Suzie Black during the recent Hidden In The Hills Studio Tour at the Harmon Studios in North Scottsdale. Instantly you are taken with the variety of line, imaginative use of space, and the kaleidoscope of color that bounced off the surface of each canvas. As Suzie walks her visitors through her artistic journey, they observe the meticulous details, expan-sive stretches of color pushing objects beyond their surface and finally that popped an “oh WOW” in response to the con-tinuing intricacy in her work. No surprise this gutsy “out there” artist grew up in a New

Jersey suburb minutes from Manhattan. A daughter of a successful interior designer and painter, Suzie was used to look-ing at colors, designs, interiors, and canvases that challenged the edge on contemporary comfort levels. Conversations about art with her mother were part of Suzie’s earliest memo-ries. Finally, when Suzie was a senior in high school, she found herself “home alone” and made the bold move into her mother’s studio. With brushes in hand and oils spread out on a palette, she went to work on her first canvas. A star was born…Suzie presented her painting as her final project for senior humani-ties class. The painting was met with such enthusiasm that her parents hug it in their home for the next 30 years, and Suzie was off on her art career.

After high school, Suzie was off to George Washington University and the Corcoran School of Art. She received advanced degrees in both Art Therapy and Art Education. Her artistic heroes became the likes of van Gogh, Schiele, Diebenkorn, Matisse, and Gauguin. Suzie grew fasci-nated by art therapy and the psychology behind expressing emotions and telling the stories of our “hidden selves” through art. This has lead to a 40-year adventure in the exploration of color and form. When asked how she sees herself expanding, Suzie replies, “My expansion is here and now in the form of larger works. I’m looking toward more mysterious subject mat-ter to lead the viewer into the painting. I will be introducing

figures in my work that are not quite realistic, but work with the composition of abstract expressionism. I intend on heading back to the Scottsdale Artist School to be part of the Academy program for an intensive study on the human figure. I believe in the impor-tance of study to further your art.” Suzie is also turning her attention to gallery representa-tion as well. Suzie is also part of the “study process” as a teacher. She creates in her home studio in Scottsdale, which she calls her “artist loft.” Once a week, she teaches art classes in her studio to help others realize

their dreams and aspirations to paint. Suzie teaches a class at Arizona Art Supply once a month, and beginning this win-ter, she will be teaching classes and offering workshops at Terravita, in North Scottsdale. Recently, Suzie was accepted into Xanadu Gallery on Main Street in Scottsdale. To see more of Suzie Black’s work, sign up for her classes, or visit her studio, see her Web site at www.suzieblack.com.

Gone Girl (dir. David Fincher)David Fincher has made a career taking audiences to dark places with bad people. In the begin-ning moments of Gillian Flynn’s scripted adaptation of her popular novel, a man is gently caressing the head of a beautiful woman, the way two people in love would; however, the voice-over narra-tion concerning the situation is a violent soliloquy of hatred. Fincher meticulously expands the impres-sions of deceit and hatred seen in the opening and seduces the viewer into a two-hour plus unsettling journey that is also completely mesmerizing.

Nightcrawler (dir. Dan Gilroy)There’s strange and then there’s creepy. That is the best descrip-tion of Jake Gyllenhaal’s obses-sively motivated news chaser, Lou Bloom, in director Dan Gilroy’s exceptional “Nightcrawler.” Pho-tographed in the midnight hour, the film begins, and continues to build upon, the darkness it peers into. Gyllenhaal’s performance is impressive; he is disturbed, arro-gant, and controlling, yet charming when it benefits him. It’s madden-ing at times to watch this character, though it’s difficult to look away; just like curiosity draws eyes to flashing lights and sirens, Gilroy utilizes this same quality on the viewer with impressive results.

Ida (dir. Pawel Pawlikowski) At its center, “Ida” is about the exploration for truth and the deliberation of faith. At a mere 80 minutes and with a straightforward narrative structure, director Pawel Pawlikowski offers more in this short time than other films twice

as long. The two lead actors, on a journey together for truth, display both innocence and experience in a world that is harshly unaccom-modating and grossly influenced by history. The quiet and some-times-haunting landscapes look to consume the characters while also being beautifully composed with monochrome photography that fittingly supports the narra-tive themes expressed. “Ida” is yet another exceptional example of foreign filmmaking.

Snowpiercer (dir. Bong Joon-ho)Director Bong Joon-ho crafts

an exceptional science fiction film, one that displays a profound message about the world by wrapping the the-matic significance within individualized compart-ments of a never-ending train ride. With one group pursuing freedom and another continued oppression, the narrative metaphors for indulgent privilege and abusive power are displayed in the well-composed train compartments while the filmmaking techniques continuously display a right to left framing mechanism that accom-modates the struggle between the two factions. “Snowpiercer” is an ac-tion packed and thought provoking film, one that

displays all the best qualities of the genre.

Inherent Vice (dir. Paul Thomas Anderson)This California noir displays the many talents of director Paul Thomas Anderson, whose impres-sive abilities are on constant display here. Whether Anderson’s talent to adapt difficult novels, his always purposeful storytelling style, or nods to film history that influence numerous frames of his films, “In-herent Vice” is better because of them all. The film takes cue from numerous avenues, with noir char-acteristics that blend with the end of the 1960’s socio-political land-scape and the changing identity of those. Here, Joaquin Phoenix’s private investigator Doc, unwilling to compromise the freewheeling lifestyle of the past. Where the film leads may frustrate some viewers but it is undeniably fascinating to see a master filmmaker at work.

Whiplash (dir. Damien Chazelle)Is a certain amount of unrelenting push needed to reveal potential? To what lengths should talent be pushed? These two questions play prominent within the narrative, one that is supported by a great lead performance from Miles Teller as an obsessed jazz student and a stunning supportive performance by J.K. Simmons as the profan-ity spewing, emotionally tortur-ing instructor. Chazelle keeps the narrative predictability unstable by building characters with challeng-ing motivations, leading to a fitting tension filled finale. Chazelle ma-

neuvers the film with skillful guid-ance accompanied by exceptional performances, making “Whiplash” as bold and confident as the jazz music that supports it.

Selma (dir. Ava DuVernay)The media has correlated much to the connection between “Selma” and current events involving race issues in America. “Selma” crafts a compelling portrait of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., played sublimely by David Oleyowo, as a man conflicted and motivated by the changes occurring from his leadership. Moreso, DuVernay displays one of the best portray-als of the civil rights movement through political structures and the democracy of the people that helped promote change. Even in the midst of racially charged events prompting violent debates, “Selma” shows the brutality but it also exhibits the overwhelming presence of peace promoted by Dr. King and the importance of the lives of all people of every race both immedi-ate and for future populations.

Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance) (dir: Ale-jandro González Iñárritu)“Birdman” is a film that just flows together seamlessly. The per-formances from the actors, the guidance of the director, and the movements of the camera create an unmistakable rhythm. The story ac-commodates the characters and the locations offer an authenticity for everything to exist harmoniously together. Michael Keaton’s perfor-mance is impressive, one of the best

of his extensive career. “Birdman” is simply a brilliant film filled with intricacy and idiosyncrasy.

Under the Skin (dir. Jonathan Glazer)Writer/director Jonathan Glazer’s impressive film “Under The Skin” is one of the best genre films of recent memory. With a near silent and purposefully ambiguous narra-tive, the film moves with a hallu-cinatory yet naturalistic aesthetic through the streets of Scotland, following Scarlett Johannson’s curi-ous and deadly being. The purpose of the lead character is never fully realized, but it doesn’t matter be-cause the journey is so ambitiously designed that the mystery becomes nothing short of consuming. “Un-der the Skin” is a brilliant addition to the science fiction genre.

Boyhood (dir. Richard Linklater)Twelve years of commitment to an idea and Richard Linklater accom-plished one remarkable feat of film-making. “Boyhood” is an audience experience, a series of timepieces that bring you back to a specific time not too long ago. Through a series of normal, insignificant life events a young boy grows into a man amidst the backdrop of a changing world. Mason, played straightforward by Eller Coltrane, is consistently relat-able and a reflection of his parents’ influence over time. Perhaps the most compelling and brilliant aspect of this film is the subtle influence seen in Mason’s changing character, from the socioeconomic features, to political climate, and the familial aspects that become unintentionally inherited by us all. It all works in en-gulfing the viewer into the familiarity of the past and the journey of grow-ing up. “Boyhood” is a delicate and heartfelt coming-of-age work of art.

AntiqueAppraisal Day to be held Jan. 17

CAVE CREEK – The New Year is a great time to sort through items in your attic, garage, or storage unit and decide what’s worth keeping. It’s also the perfect time to bring your vintage and antique pieces to Cave Creek Mu-seum, 6140 Skyline Drive, for its annual “Antique Appraisal Day” on Saturday, Jan. 17, 9:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m. Scottsdale appraiser Sean Morton, an expert with more than 25 years experience working in the fine arts and antiques field, will examine treasures, discuss their origins, and provide a verbal range of value. The fee is $20 per item, with a limit of two items per session. Guests may attend more than one session. Proceeds benefit the Museum. Evelyn Johnson, Cave Creek Museum’s executive director, said she has learned never to throw anything away until an appraiser assesses it. “Whether you have an heirloom piece of jewelry or an old item that appears to look worthless, it’s always a good idea to have an expert

take a look at it,” she said, adding that the Museum once had a patron bring in what he thought was a Tiffany lamp knockoff that turned out to be worth thousands of dollars. Morton, who appears regu-larly on a local television show, has been helping the Museum with its Antique Appraisal Day fundraiser for more than 13 years. He said the improvement of the economy has been a wel-come relief, but no new brick-and-mortar antique stores have opened up. “The internet has been pushing the antique field in a new direction. Not a bad direction – just different for the “old school” people,” he said. As for “what’s hot” right now: “Advertising signage of any kind,” he said. “Modern,

hip 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s well-designed and well-made furniture are also very popu-lar.” And “what’s not” in de-mand: “Victorian cut glass and oak furniture,” he said. Morton said contemporary art is finding a new market. “Western art has taken a “back seat” to the change in taste and sensibilities of a new generation. There are some exceptions of course,” he said. With the Super Bowl and other major sports events being hosted in Arizona, is the timing right to sell sports memora-bilia? “The sports autograph category is relatively strong. It depends on if the item has been certified by a nationally respected company that issues authentication documenta-tion, such as Professional Coin Grading Service and others like that,” he said. Even if you plan on keeping your valuables, having an idea of their worth can help you and your family plan for the future. “This is particularly true for Baby Boomers who should plan early regarding which items their children may want, which historical items they own that perhaps should be donated and the correct timing to sell,” he said. The Museum also will host a special “Art for Art’s Sake” children’s program on Sun-day, Jan. 25 from 1:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. Admission to the children’s program is free, but because seating is limited, reservations are suggested.

ANTHEM – The six students receiving Rotary Club of Anthem scholar-ships to help with their first year in college will receive an extra $500 next semester. Scholarship students who graduated from Boulder Creek High School are Rachel Di-eman (University of Arizona), Caitlan Patcher (Northern Arizona Uni-versity), and Kristi Poling (UA). The Sandra Day O’Connor High School graduates are David Lind (Princeton University) and Brandon Rios (UA). Megan Villandre, who graduated from Anthem Preparatory Academy, is attending the University of Notre Dame. This one-time schol-arship augmentation is possible thanks to a grant from Rotary District 5490, which serves the Rotary Clubs in north-western Arizona and parts of California and Nevada. Last spring, the Rotary Club of Anthem Foundation Committee applied for and received the one-time Scholarship Augmentation District Grant of $3,000. The scholarship pro-gram began soon after the club received its charter in 2003. Starting with one $500 scholar-ship, the program grew to six $1,000 scholarships this academic year. The Rotary Club of Anthem seeks applicants from the two public high schools serving Anthem, and any Anthem high school se-nior attending a private or parochial high school

Do-overs are for Children

Cave Creek is faced with a recall elec-tion with my name, Charlie Spitzer, on the ballot. Steve LaMar, the person who’s put his name up against mine, received the absolute lowest number of votes of twelve candidates in the original 2013 council election. Those who initiated this recall forget that “do-overs” are for kids in the playground when they don’t get their way. It’s immature and ethically wrong to think adults can label a do-over a political “recall” simply because they, too, didn’t get their way. This was the reason a recall was decided by the opposition before I and my fellow councilmen were even sworn in. Since then, they have twisted and fabricated facts to support their recall mission. Now, Mr. LaMar hopes a do-over will give him the results he didn’t get the first time around. My constituents elected me Coun-cilman because they felt I had the background and integrity for the job and, to date, I’ve served them well. I have a passion and commitment to do what's right for Cave Creek. I have neither hidden agendas nor disingenu-ous goals. I have obligations to no one but the citizens of Cave Creek.

To the New River parents who bought their child a dirt bike – bright yellow – and then did not feel it was necessary to teach this child to respect other people’s property…The New River Senior Center just spent a lot of money getting the parking lot in front of the center redone. After spending Sunday (Jan. 4) listening to this child go as fast as he could on the road thru the Kiwanis park and on 15th Avenue (and mak-ing him remove the bike from the ball fields), I came to the center and discov-ered tire tracks on the sidewalks, ruts in the parking lot and proof of his general disrespect in front of the building. This child was going as fast as he could on the road with another child on back with no hel-met or protective gear on 15th Avenue. I will be calling the police if this bike is seen again in the park.

in the region. Applicants submit information on their community involvement and extracurricu-lar activities, and write an essay based on the principles of Rotary International. Grade point aver-ages and advanced placement and honors courses taken are part of the evaluation process used by the Scholarship Committee. As one of 34,216 Rotary clubs worldwide, the Rotary Club of Anthem also sponsors Interact Clubs at both Boulder Creek and Sandra Day O’Connor High Schools. Interact – or Inter-national Action – gives young people an opportunity to par-ticipate in fun-filled, meaningful service projects while developing leadership skills and meeting new friends. For more information on the Rotary Club of Anthem, go to www.AnthemRotary.org.

My vision was, and will always be for a thriving, positive Cave Creek that re-tains its Western, desert rural heritage. I appreciate and respect those who seek truth not in media propaganda, but in facts acquired by personal research and inquiry. That said, I invite fellow Cave Creek residents to contact me with questions and concerns on issues im-portant to our town as well as ones they may have about my honesty, integrity and dedication to the job to which I’ve sworn. I am proud to be seated on a Coun-cil that has accomplished unprec-edented transparency, from streaming meetings live to publishing all town financial transactions and emails. We have worked towards purchasing open space, something no other previous ad-ministration has done. We have passed a budget $1m less than the previous year, with a reduction in government staff, and with no reduction in service. We have corrected years of non-main-tenance of public utilities, in order to protect our infrastructure. You can count on my commitment of continued dedication and service to our Town. Unlike my opponent, I am NOT asking for a do-over. I’m simply asking for your vote so I can continue the job you’ve elected me to do.

Nora is a 14 month old, spayed, female Dilute Tortie/Calico. Clearly, she's one gorgeous cat! She's also very sweet and gets along well with kids.

Bailey is a beautiful one year old calico. She is super social, friendly and talkative and loves to be in the middle of the action!

Nala is an incredibly sweet natured, GORGEOUS, 13 year old, spayed, female Russian Blue. She was the primary companion to a disabled little girl for many years until they had to move away. She would do best with a quiet household – great for a retired or semi-retired family.

Lisa is just one year old and has the best, most unique black and white markings. Everyone who

Pets of the Week: Nora, bailey, Nala, Lisa, and Winnie

sees her raves over her beauty. She, of course, soaks it in!

Winnie is just over a year old. She’s stunning gorgeous – I mean, look at that face! She’s very sweet and loves to prance around so that everyone admires her beauty.

All of these beautiful cats are fully vaccinated, spayed, and microchipped and ready to meet their forever family. For more information, please call Anthem Pets at (480) 287-3542, or email at [email protected].

If you’re not in a position to adopt but would still like to help Anthem Pets, please consider making a donation so we can continue to rescue animals like this from a life of cruelty and neglect. Anthem Pets is a non-profit organization serving lost, found, and abandoned animals in the North Valley since 2005. Operating on donations only, it aims to find forever homes for abandoned animals and return wayward pets to owners. For more information, visit www.anthempets.org.

CAVE CREEK – Kate East-burn (pictured), Sonoran Trails Middle School English Language Arts Teacher, won a $5,000 grant that will support a work-shop for her classroom. Eastburn wrote and submit-ted the application that won the School Challenge sponsored by the Arizona Diamondbacks and University of Phoenix. Out of over 400 applications submitted, 30 were chosen. Eastburn will use the funds for the Sadlier-Oxford Vocabu-lary Workshop. This workshop is word-rich, and focuses on synonyms and antonyms, parts of speech, and vocabulary in context. Follow-up activities in the workshop allow students to illustrate understanding of new words. Cooperative activities, as well as oral and kinesthetic

activities, are included in each unit. Congratulations to Eastburn and Sonoran Trails Middle School on winning this grant.
