Work on Queen Creek bridge east of Superior underway The Arizona Department of Transportation has begun making improvements to the Queen Creek bridge on US 60 just east of Superior next week. The work will require lane closures on approximately one mile of the highway. Lane restrictions will take place during the following work hours: • 6:30 a.m. to midnight Wednesday (Nov. 9) • 6:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Thursday (Nov. 10) What to expect during

construction: • Crews will alternate eastbound and westbound traffic on one open lane between milepost 227 west of the bridge and milepost 228 east of the Queen Creek tunnel. • The bridge’s new surface will need to cure for 12 hours on Wednesday; therefore the speed limit will be reduced to 5 mph at the approaches to the bridge to reduce vibrations from vehicles. • The speed limit will be reduced to 35 mph through

the construction zone on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. • Motorists should expect delays of up to 15 minutes. • For safety purposes, motorists waiting to follow the pilot car will not be permitted to wait inside of the tunnel. • Crews will work from 6:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday, Tuesday and Thursday, and from 6:30 a.m. to midnight on Wednesday. • Drivers should proceed through the work zone

with caution, slow down, and be alert for construction equipment and personnel. The project schedule is subject to change due to a variety of reasons, including weather, material availability and mechanical difficulties. For information about the transportation of oversized/overweight loads through the construction zone, please call ADOT Commercial Permits at 602-712-8851 or go to www.azdot.gov/mvd.

Substance Abuse in Superior and the Social Host By Taylor Beard On Wednesday, Oct. 26, I attended the Superior Substance Abuse Coalition’s Town Hall meeting. Whether it was the weather (rainy) or the passing of HR 1904 (some were celebrating, while others were rather upset), the town hall meeting was rather lacking that which gives it purpose – townsfolk. On the contributing panel was Pete Guzman, SUSD Superintendent; Todd Pryor, SFD Fire Chief; Larry Bravo, Justice of the Peace; Chris Magana of Community Bridges; Jayme Valenzuela of the Pinal County Sheriff’s Office; Lt. Mike Campbell of the Superior Police Department; John Tameron representing local business; Father James of St. Francis Parish; and Scott Campagna representing faithbased recovery. The Town Hall setting was meant to stimulate discussion and it did just that. This discussion was meant to determine whether the goals of

the Superior Substance Abuse Coalition should change or remain the same. The majority of the discussion focused on what those in attendance felt were issues contributing to underage alcohol and drug abuse, such as lack of activities for children, lack of role models, necessary education, easy access to the substance in question and the cultural attributes of the community. It is the last two contributors that I would like to focus on. I sat there, stuffing my face with the pizza that was provided for the discussion, listening to numerous accounts of alcohol at Little League games, alcohol and drugs being readily available in home environments and alcohol being available to youths at social gatherings. I grew up in Utah, where even my occasional glass of wine at age 29 is severely frowned upon. I would have never had an alcoholic beverage handed to me at age 16,

even at a familial non-Mormon gathering. It just didn’t happen. It was repeatedly brought up during the meeting that alcohol is just a cultural thing in Superior. Sure, I can understand the cultural thing; but we are in Superior, Arizona, United States, not Superior, Alsace, France, where drinking at a much younger age is accepted. Whether it is cultural or not, in the United States, it’s still illegal. Sure. Age 21 seems a little harsh in comparison to many other countries where the drinking age is 18 (some even younger than that). But how do you think the Europeans feel about waiting to drive until they’re 18? One of the reasons why Europeans cannot drive until they are 18 is the fact that the portion of the brain that accesses risk does not fully develop until at least 18, in some cases as late as 21. This same argument could be made for drinking age.

If a child doesn’t have the ability to access risk (it just simply is not being factored into their decisions at all), then they are going to want to continue that buzzed feeling they are getting from the screwdrivers they have been drinking. Continue drinking, continue buzzing, right? Wrong. The child isn’t able to consider the compound theory when it comes to alcohol: consistent heavy drinking compounds to put a person in a coma rather than keep them buzzed. Here’s another scenario. Maybe the child has a slightly higher alcohol tolerance and isn’t put into a coma. Still not having the ability to assess risk and being beyond inebriated, the child hops in his car and heads up to Globe for a movie. All those winding curves and steep cliffs? This is a recipe for a serious disaster. By being able to drive at

16, they have enough danger going on already. There is no need to add alcohol into that equation. Think about it: in Europe you cannot drink until you are 18 and you cannot drive until you are 18, so they have covered their bases pretty well. At least kids are on the cusp of being able to make sound decisions. As the availability of alcohol to underage youth seemed like the topic that the group wanted to focus on, why it happens, how to stop it, what the consequences are, etc., I decided to shed light on an ordinance that the town passed a couple years back to help stop underage drinking. Obviously, there are many things that can be done to curb underage drinking, but the threat of a record, fines and community service is a wonderful deterrent. On Aug. 2, 2009, the Town of Superior passed a new ordinance meant to impact underage drinking.

Town of Superior Ordinance No. 105, Chapter 10-1-22Permitting or Encouraging of Underage Drinking, states the following: “(a) No person of legal drinking age in Arizona may knowingly permit or fail to take responsible action to prevent illegal consumption of spirituous liquor by an underage person on premises owned by the person or under the person’s control. The subsection does not apply to spirituous liquor used exclusively as part of a religious service. (b) A person who violates this section is guilty of a class 1 misdemeanor.” In the past, the kid drinking the beer out in the backyard was the one who cited with underage drinking, so parents probably didn’t pay much attention. This ordinance changes things. This ordinance means that if you are the adult having the Margarita/Mojito party in your home, that whether or not you gave Darla, your buddy from high See SSAC, Page 10

Veterans Day is Friday – remember to say thank you By Jennifer R. Carnes Every year on Nov. 11 my aunt and thousands of others just like her take time to participate in little patriotic events sponsored by the American Legion or Veterans of Foreign War posts throughout the United States. To them, Veterans Day is more than an excuse to have a three-day weekend. To them, Veterans Day is a chance to honor the men and women who served in the military and protected the very freedoms afforded by this country. My aunt sells little American flags as a fundraiser for her local American Legion. Like many Americans, men in my family have served in several branches of the military. My uncle Steve was in the Air Force, serving as an aviation mechanic at Edwards Air Force Base and at other bases in the world. My uncle Richard served in the Navy aboard the USS Carl Vincent. My uncle Bernie was also in the Navy and served aboard

the USS Saratoga at the tail end of the Vietnam War. My uncle Mike was in the Army during Vietnam. Their older brother Ralph was also in the Army and served in Korea and Vietnam. My cousin Jeff is still in the Army. He is stationed at Camp David and serves with the President’s communication advance team. Some of my other cousins have also served in the military, several of whom served tours of duty in Afghanistan and Iraq. I’m very proud of my uncles and cousins. I’m also very proud of the men and women in the Copper Corridor who have served in the military or who are still serving in the military. We try to honor those men and women with our “Service Salute” or “Lest We Forget” columns whenever a family member or friend updates the newspaper on the military person’s status. Veterans Day is usually celebrated on Nov. 11. This year, the date seems a bit more significant – Nov.

11, 2011 or 11-11-11. Why is it so significant? I know that I studied the history of Veterans Day when I was in grade school – a lifetime ago (certainly many more years than I’m willing to admit). Honestly, I wasn’t sure I was remembering it right. So I did what I do best – researched it. Veterans Day is always celebrated on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month because that is when hostilities officially ended in 1918, World War I, the war to end all wars. The Treaty of Versaillles was signed on June 28, 1919, but the end of the war was generally acknowledged seven months earlier when an armistice went into effect. In November 1919, President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed November 11 as Armistice Day. “To us in America,” he said, “the reflections of Armistice Day will be filled with solemn pride in the heroism of those who died in the country’s service and with gratitude for the victory,

both because of the thing from which it has freed us and because of the opportunity it has given America to show her sympathy with peace and justice in the councils of nations.” Originally, Armistice Day was meant to be celebrated with parades and public meetings and a brief suspension of business beginning at 11 a.m. The day was declared an official legal holiday on June 4, 1926, when the U.S. Congress passed a concurrent resolution: “Therefore be it Resolved by the Senate (the House of Representatives concurring), that the President of the United States is requested to issue a proclamation calling upon the officials to display the flag of the United States on all Government buildings on November 11 and inviting the people of the United States to observe the day in schools and churches, or other suitable places, with appropriate ceremonies of friendly relations with all other

peoples.” Congress passed an official Act on May 13, 1938 that required the day be dedicated to the cause of world peace. It was primarily set aside to honor veterans of World War I, but in 1954, after World War II and the Korean Conflict, the 83rd Congress amended the Act of 1938, striking out the word “Armistice” and inserting in its place the word “Veterans.” With its June 1, 1954 approval, the legislation ensured that November 11th became a day to honor American veterans of all wars. The Uniform Holiday Bill, signed June 28, 1968, moved Veterans Day to a Monday, observed first with much confusion on Oct. 25, 1971. The move was designed to give federal employees a threeday weekend. Other holidays, Washington’s Birthday, Memorial Day and Columbus Day, were also moved to Mondays (and continue to this day to be observed on that day). But in 1975, President

Gerald R. Ford signed Public Law 94-97, returning the annual observance of Veterans Day to Nov. 11. This Friday, on Nov. 11, kids will be out of school. Government offices and banks will be closed. Retail stores will have their “pre-Black Friday” sales in full effect. Please, take a moment to consider those men and women who have sacrificed and served for the common good. And if you know someone who is a veteran (or someone who is still serving) or if you happen to meet someone on the street, take a moment to say, “Thank you.” And if you’re over in the Safford area and happen upon a very patriotic elderly woman who is selling small American flags, buy one from her and tell her that her niece says, “Hi, Aunt Lou.” Editor’s note: More information on the history of Veterans Day can be found online at www.va.gov/opa/ vetsday.

Energy audit recommends changes designed to save district money By Taylor Beard When you think about how you would like the elected officials of your school board and by proxy, your school district to behave, you consider things like looking out for the best well-being of the students, being wellrounded in terms of the type of educational opportunities available to said students, and utilizing the taxpayers’ contribution, bearing in mind the two prior qualities, in the most effective manner. The Superior United School

District appears to be well on their way to harnessing these qualities. All across the country, school districts have cut out the arts and music in an effort to deal with the crippling economic recession we are all experiencing. Unfortunately, while the arts and music are an essential element of education, you do not typically make the big bucks with a humanities degree; therefore, it makes sense that some of the humanities would be the first to go when cuts

are made. You do not have to venture far to completely understand that Superior, Arizona and the nation beyond are experiencing some of the most trying times felt for decades. So when the arts and music were cut from the local curriculum, it was a sad, but understandable decision. The Superior School District Board does have the students’, along with the taxpayers’ best interests in mind. And while they are not able to bring back arts and music yet, they are progressively moving ahead

in efforts to save money and energy so that one day, hopefully soon, they will be able to bring a more diverse curriculum back to the students of Superior. One extensive way the school district is doing this is through putting the entirety of the school district through a technical energy audit as a means to ascertain how they can save energy and funds. The audit was conducted by APS Energy Services and the findings indicated that there are significant energy and operation cost reduction opportunities available at John F. Kennedy Elementary School & District Office, the Superior Junior Senior High School, and the district transportation center. In conducting the audit, APS was considerate of what they call the “‘Triple Bottom

Line,’ a 21st century concept, intended to capture a far greater breadth of criteria for measuring success, namely the economic, ecological, and social impacts of the project,” as stated in the audit summary. The Superior School Board decided to move forward with the recommended changes understanding that by doing so they realize the immense savings created by the project, along with maximizing their carbon footprint reduction in creating the best environment for their students, faculty and visitors. So what was determined by the audit and what changes are being made? First, it found that depending on which projects the board decided to pursue, the utility cost reductions from the program are expected to be

up to 43 percent annually. So where the school district spent around $150k annually on their utilities, this would potentially bring the bill down to $84,500, saving taxpayers more than $64k a year. That’s huge! Think of all the things that could be done with money like that. It was found that the total savings of the project over the course of the 15 year project term would be $1,346,108. For more information on the energy audit, please feel free to contact the Superior Unified School District at 520-689-3000.

The Globe-Miami Community Concert Association will be hosting the 52nd Street Jazz Band at Miami High on Monday, Nov. 14, at 7 p.m. Based in Phoenix, the 52nd Street Jazz Band plays “Chicago Style” jazz which is often applied to the sound of Chicagoans such as Eddie Condon, Muggsy Spanier and Bud Freeman. The rhythm sections of these bands substitute the string bass for the tuba and the guitar for the banjo. “Musically we play in more of a swing-style, 4-to-the-bar manner rather than the 2-beat style of many traditional dixieland bands,” states band leader, Joe Hopkins. “The New Orleans preference for the ensemble sound is deemphasized in favor of solos and is also faster paced, resembling the hustle-bustle of big city life.” The 52nd Street Jazz Band plays a wide variety of tunes, including most of those of more traditional jazz bands plus many of the Great American Songbook selections from the 1930’s by See Band, Page 7

Dr. Doris Helmich unanimously selected as interim president of CAC PINAL COUNTY, Ariz. – Dr. Doris Helmich has been named the interim president of Central Arizona College. The unanimous decision came during a Pinal County Community College District Governing Board special meeting held on Wednesday, Nov. 2, at CAC’s Signal Peak Campus. Helmich will serve as interim until the conclusion of a nationwide search for a new president. The Governing Board will announce details of her tenure as interim president at the regularly scheduled Governing Board Meeting on Nov. 15 at the Superstition Mountain Campus in Apache Junction, Ariz. Details pertaining to a nationwide search will be announced by the CAC Governing Board at a future date. Helmich replaces Dennis Jenkins who announced his retirement as president/CEO on Nov. 1 after serving in the role since July 1, 2007. He spent almost 40 years at the institution. “Central Arizona College is a vital and integral part of Pinal County,” Helmich said. “It is a wonderful institution of higher education that has the ability to serve the

many diverse communities that comprise our area. We have outstanding and caring faculty, a first-rate staff, and incredible students who are excited about the possibilities of our future.” Helmich said that her immediate goal is to listen and refocus the college on helping students learn. “Creating lifelong learners is the mission of the college and the reason we exist,” she emphatically stated. CAC’s employees are primed to carry out that mission. “We have many talented faculty and staff members who have terrific ideas,” Helmich stated. “I need to hear those ideas. I need to listen - really listen – and empower our people to be creative and make good decisions. It is time for us to come together as an organization to serve the people of Pinal County to the best of our ability.” Helmich said her leadership philosophy is to serve and that everyone will have a chance to be heard and express their viewpoint. “When all is said and done, we will need to put aside personal agendas and make decisions that are in the best interest of our students and

the future of Central Arizona College.” Helmich recognizes that communication is a vital key to success and plans to institute regular communication efforts that help combat the fear, uncertainty and doubt that creep into organizations when employees are kept in the dark. “I want and need to know what the community, the employees and the students think of Central Arizona College,” she said. “It is how we will improve.” Helmich acknowledged that accreditation is a huge priority and that she will depend on the entire faculty and staff to create a systems portfolio worthy of a positive review. “I have confidence that we are able to do this - and to do this with style - with everyone’s participation,” she said. “My vision for CAC is that we can be the best community college in the state by focusing on helping students learn inside and outside of the classroom. Our newly-approved strategic goals include an emphasis on student learning through access, retention and student completion. Our key indicators for performance on these goals will be shared

soon.” Helmich said her goal is to breed a collegial atmosphere where employees are committed to each other’s success that ultimately leads to a high-performing organization focused on helping students learn. A native New Englander with roots in Rhode Island, Helmich joined the CAC family in 2001 as director of student success, while also spending time in the

Pastor’s Corner

By Rev. Dennis Van Gorp Family Life Christian Center Psalm 23:3 “You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies.” Many of us have read, or quoted, the Shepherd’s Psalm hundreds of times. Most have missed the significance of this verse. David was very familiar with being in the presence of his enemies. Once, he hid in the recesses of a cave while King Saul slept near the entrance. He knew very well the

feeling of helplessness when surrounded by the enemy. In his writings you can hear the frustration and fear of the situations he encountered. We all have enemies who come against us. Luke 1:71 tells about God saving us from our enemies and from all who hate us. Other verses also mention God delivering us from our enemies. Even God Almighty recognizes who our enemies are and what the situation is. The first part of our verse talks about God preparing a

table. The table represents the negotiating process. I recall some national leaders who put off their peace talks because they could not agree on the shape of the table they were to sit at. A table between you and your enemies, placed there by God, indicates His desire to see you as friends and at peace with each other. In Hebrews 12:14 we read, “make every effort to live at peace with each other.” And

over in Romans 12:18, “if it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.” The Apostle Paul gives us some good advice in the last few verses in Romans 12. “Do not take revenge. If your enemy is hungry, feed

him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink. Overcome evil with good.” God places you in a position where you can settle your differences. He brings you close to each other so that you are face to face. God cares about our relationships with

others; so He prepares that table, placing it in the middle of our disagreement. We can choose to get angry with God, or work on becoming friends with those who we dislike. Turn your hatred and anger into peace and harmony. Shalom!

Continued from Page 4 school’s 15 year-old daughter, the prickly pear margarita she is sipping on the porch, you will still be cited under the social host ordinance; heck, you didn’t even have to know that Darla was at the party, let alone that she had a margarita, to get cited. So what can you do to save yourself the trouble of notifying your attorney that they are about to make bank off your Class 1 misdemeanor? If you’re having a party, make it either a youth allowed or non-youth party… this way if youth are allowed, you know that you need to monitor the party at all times. Though even if it is a nonyouth party, youths are pretty clever and can sneak in, so you might want to monitor just in case. Make certain that any adults attending your party understand your stance of no underage drinking, since unfortunately even if they are the person who gave the kid some wine, if the party is at your house, you are going to get slapped with the citation. Plus, wouldn’t it be a bummer to introduce a teenager to alcohol thinking, ‘Johnny’s always been a good kid, seems to have his wits about him’, then two years later when Johnny is a raging alcoholic at 17 and mows down a group of kids playing soccer, to know that you were the person who started him on that path.

I don’t know about you, but that would really bum me out. Definitely not worth the risk. For more information on what you can do to deter underage drinking, email ssacsuperiorcoalition@yahoo. com or visit www.superiorsubstanceabusecoalition.org.
