‘Visions of Superior danced in their heads,’ study seeks answers on communal priorities
Talkin’ values … Dr. Dee Alsop of Hearts & Minds facilitates a June 9 meeting aimed at identifying community values and priorities for use in developing a ‘vision’ for Superior. (Cindy Tracy photo)
By Cindy Tracy An insightful session of brainstorming and sharing community issues, concerns and aspirations was a first step last week in a visioning initiative that aims to definite the town’s values and priorities for use in planning and decision making. Vice Mayor Olga Lopez hosted the “Superior Community Values and Priorities Project” on June 9 at the Superior Junior-Senior High multipurpose room. The event was sponsored by the Town of Superior and Resolution Copper, the latter of which provided the speaker. That individual was Dee Allsop, Ph.D. He is the CEO and managing partner of Hearts and Minds Strategies, a Wirthlin inspired consultancy. Based in Reston, Virginia, the firm’s mission is “to provide strategic decision making insight and advice to help clients understand the hearts and minds of the people that matter most to their enterprise, and transform that understanding into measurable success.” After being introduced by Adam Hawkins representing Resolution, Allsop gave an overview of what “community values and priorities initiatives” actually are. He outlined what those present would be doing that evening and what activities would take place over the next few
months to hone in on and discover Superior’s key values and priorities. He said his company believed in understanding our personal values by using our hearts and our minds. “Our belief is that if I’m a company and if I understand those people who matter most to me, what they believe, what they feel in their hearts and their minds, I’m going to know a lot better how to serve them,” he said. “That is the whole idea of what we do in my company.” Hearts and Minds strategies are inspired by Dr. Richard B. Wirthlin, a pioneer in values based research. Allsop outlined some of the clients his company had worked for. This has included the Superstition Vistas values based study here in the local region of Arizona. He discussed the concept that once you know a community’s values, the discussion you make then tend to reflect those values. A vision based on those values is one people are going to care about. He explained two study methods for the project. One was what they were going to do that night, the Advanced Strategy Online (ASO). This involved the use of a computer to instantly compile data from a focused brainstorming session led by Allsop. Gretchen Comey, Solutions Director of Hearts and Minds, handled the computer work as the group present
went through the survey. Planned is a resident survey with 200 Superior inhabitants. Opinions on topics like Superior quality of life, verification of values, ideal community, priorities and key issues would be given by phone, online or written. The sample would be weighted to be representative of the
town population. The project seeks to identify the common shared values of the community using this methodology. You eventually find yourself in a place, according to Allsop, where you can protect and promote those shared values and people are going to be able to support them.
He discussed the theories in greater detail. He explained about “strategic hinges,” “mind maps,” and “laddering.” He said there are things about living in a place that are personal to individuals. He sometimes asks

How will changes to AHCCCS affect local communities? By Lana Jones Changes to AHCCCS, Arizona’s Medicaid agency, proposed by Governor Jan Brewer will affect locals’ ability to see a doctor. The first set of changes, which went into effect April 1, reduced the fees paid to medical providers, like doctors and hospitals, five percent. For example, if AHCCCS used to pay providers $100 for giving a patient an x-ray, now they’ll only pay $95. Neal Jensen, CEO of Cobre Valley Regional Medical Center,
said that ACHHHS already didn’t pay close to what it costs to provide medical services. Cobre Valley serves a region including Superior, Kearny, Hayden, Winkelman, Globe, Miami, and San Carlos. “If physicians aren’t making a living in the community, they’re going to leave,” Jensen said. “Many family providers are working very hard to make a living today and they’re struggling to meet their day to day need,” he said, “and because of that, it’s very hard to recruit to
Cobre Valley’s Superior Clinic
rural areas.” Reducing payments to providers is going to make it even harder for physicians, and hospitals, to operate in rural areas. “It’s going to impact all the doctors and the ability to see a doctor. We need to look at basic care in our community and our ability to recruit to these areas. It’s a huge concern for Kearny and Superior and even Globe,” Jensen said. The Governor’s plan also leaves an opening for an additional provider rate reduction of five
percent on October 1. Another change is scheduled to go into effect on July 1: AHCCCS will stop enrolling childless adults close to the federal poverty line. Parents at or above 75 percent of the federal poverty line will also be affected although their children will still be eligible. People already in the system will still receive coverage but AHCCCS won’t accept new enrollment of those groups. This change is being challenged in court because it may conflict with Proposition 204. Voters approved Proposition 204 in 2000. It provides health care for anyone under the federal poverty line. The lawsuit, filed last week, questions the Governor’s and legislature’s authority to remove benefits that were voterapproved. Jensen said he hopes the lawsuit will bring the legislature and Governor back to the table because the hospitals have come up with a way to cover these patients. It’s called a provider assessment model. In this model the state would assess Cobre Valley, for example, $1 million. The state would use that money to pay Medicaid claims. If the state pays claims of $1 million, the federal government would reimburse them $2 million.
The state could give $1 million back to Cobre Valley and keep the rest. In this model, the hospital would get all its money back so it wouldn’t have to increase fees. “It’s budget neutral for the state and it ends up giving the state the funds it needs to run the program,” said Jensen. If this model were adopted, the state wouldn’t need to lower provider rates or restrict AHCCCS enrollment. If this model isn’t adopted, how will medical providers cope with continued cuts? The provider rate reduction is expected to cost rural hospitals $11 million. Restricting enrollment will cost them $133 million. Hospitals, clinics, and private practices are businesses; they can’t continue operating long if costs exceed revenues. Jensen said that some of the costs are deferred to others. Everyone else pays more when provider rates and enrollment eligibility are cut because patients are still going to come and get services. The other options are dropping less profitable services, trying to operate more efficiently, and trying to grow. Jensen said that Cobre Valley couldn’t cut services. “We’re a safety net hospital. We can’t cut services,” he said. Cobre Valley is focusing on growth, reducing expenses, and
improving operating efficiencies to stay in business. “We try to provide more services so our citizens stay here,” said Jensen. “The next thing is reduce expenses: negotiate better contracts for supplies and equipment.” He’s very concerned about the impact these cuts could have on Cobre Valley’s hospital, clinics, and physicians. “The difficulty of having, recruiting, and keeping providers in the rural areas is going to be exponentially increased,” he said. “We need to work collaboratively to be successful and it’s a team. I’m very concerned about a piece of that team suffering. We’re all in this together.”

Guzman contract addition approved by board By Cindy Tracy In a special Superior school board meeting Monday, the board extended the contract of Superintendent/Principal Pete Guzman to the year 2014. Guzman still had approximately a year left on his contract when the board took the action to extend it. The vote of the board for the extension was unanimous. A 1969 Hayden High School graduate, Guzman earned his associate of arts degree in 1971 and his bachelor of arts in 1973. He also holds a master’s in education degree and an administration certificate from Northern Arizona University. He worked for the HaydenWinkelman school district where he held positions as teacher,
coach, athletic director and principal. He left the district to build the Cobre Valley Institute of Technology in Globe (CVIT) “from the ground up.” CVIT is a JTED (Joint Technological Education District) that provides career technical education for students from its member districts. These include Superior, HaydenWinkelman, Globe, Miami and San Carlos. Guzman remains the superintendent of CVIT. He was named superintendent in the Superior district in 2002. Subsequently he became principal of Superior’s John F. Kennedy Elementary School and Superior High School. He was selected by the Arizona School Boards Association in

The Evolution of Understanding
Part One: Things that could really Bum You Out By Taylor Sheaffer Ritter Typically, I would write about the happenings of a school board meeting in a third person, very non-personal voice…just give you the short version of the legalese to let you know what’s up and go on with my day. Yet, recently SB 1308 was passed, requiring that on or before June 30, 2011, the governing board of each school district, educating students in grades seven through 12, are required to conduct a public meeting to review and consider incorporating ageappropriate dating abuse information into the district’s health curriculum. As a prequel to articles addressing SB 1308 and smart dating and friendship etiquette ideas, I decided to focus on a equally relevant and related topic, Internet Safety and Secrecy. I decided to call this series “The Evolution of Understanding” because what a child currently understands has evolved enormously from what a similarly aged child understood 50 years ago, I would even venture to say 10 years ago. Actually, I can say 10 years ago since 10 years ago, at 18 years old, I was just starting my first year of college away from my parents and halfway through that year, I received my first cell phone. Many kids reading this are thinking ‘OHHHH THE HORROR!’, but in reality, 10 years ago 18 was a reasonable age to get your first cell phone. I was waiting in line at the store a few days ago and saw a seven year old texting like a maniac on his own phone. My poor children are going to be denied and probably feel neglected, because they are not getting a phone until I deem they need one, probably age 16. Good grief, can you imagine in 2017, being four years old and not having a cell phone? What will my son/daughter do? Gee Golly, I don’t know—learn how to swim or watch Sesame Street or build a sand castle, you know, do kid things rather than adult things. Due to the advent of cell phones, smart phones, the internet, video games, mass media, et cetera, children have access to more sensitive information at a much younger age and (yes, this is my opinion) at an age far below that which they have the
correct ability/fully formed psyche to understand the information and consequences of utilizing it. This argument works not only for Internet Safety and Secrecy, but is also as one of a few possibilities for why SB 1308 was brought forward. So we’ll start with the topic most closely related to dating abuse, Online Predators, and continue to Things that could really Bum You Out. Online Predators Back in the day, which Dane Cook famously said “was a Wednesday,” kids met other kids at the park or at school or at summer camp or something—they engaged it real live face-to-face conversations. I know that seems totally silly, but it is the honest-to-goodness truth. Teenagers met their prospective girlfriend/ boyfriend in class. Here they would awkwardly ask each other to borrow a pen or a piece of paper, even with book bags stuffed with new Sharpies/ Pilots/ Bics and more notebooks than necessary, just so they could attempt and then fumble striking up a conversation about how rockin’ the other’s purple/blue/striped/skull converse were. Then the “technogods,” Steve Jobs and Bill Gates, were born and all that personal contact got thrown in the recycling bin with the empty Coke can. I am not knocking meeting people online…had I not ventured online, I would have never met my fiancé Ben and life would be bleak. I am simply explaining that as methods evolve, so do the inherent dangers. The WWWW aka Wonderful World Wide Web, does not require that someone disclose the truth, it is likely increasingly popular because people can escape reality and either Google someone else’s intimate details or simply make up new details and become someone else. You have no way of knowing if Abby O’Shaunessy, 14 of Bisbee, who likes Muse, Nicky Minaj and the Twilight Series, is really Abby O’Shaunessy, 14 of Bisbee. Yeah, they might be Abby, 14, but she might have posted a picture of her cute, skinny cousin and is hiding that she actually weighs 276 lbs and has back acne, among other things. However, Abby

O’Shaunessy, 14 of Bisbee, who likes Muse, Nicky Minaj and the Twilight Series, could really be Mike Von Austin, 63, from Tucson, who really likes young boys and knives. The point is, you never know who you are talking to and even if you were smart enough to do a background check before you agreed to meet “Abby” for pizza, you should never meet someone from the internet unless they agree to meet you in a public place with a few of your friends. Be smart. Make sure your parents know every detail of your outing. A can of Bear Mace is always an excellent idea, in any situation. Things that could really Bum You Out With nifty apps like Facebook and Twitter it is exceedingly easy to let the planet know the minutia taking place in your life and as annoying as I find it when someone updates their status that they are “gettin’ gas with my peeps,” “super-stoked on the latest Lost episode,” “making a killer PB&J with bacon” or that their “phone is literally blowing up, [they] feel so special” thus proving that they are indeed daft and do not actually know the definition of literally…these sort of updates are not dangerous, just useless. Updates that would be unwise to post are similar to “the rents (parents) are gone for the weekend, here all by my lonesome” since the creepy sex offender in town could see this and see an opportunity. Don’t post information revealing your location, especially if you are alone. Additionally, it’s never a good idea to post things like “ahh bummer, I just realized that I left my car unlocked” or “me and the fam are peacing-out for the next two weeks and heading to New Hampshire to see my grandparents” again, open opportunities for unsavory individuals. Along these lines, do not give out personal information (i.e. credit/debit card info, address, social security info, etc.) to an unknown person; a good rule to live by is the only people who need it should already have it. This takes us to posts that will come back to haunt you. While some people think it is awesome that they can literally detail
every moment of their lives online (this is the correct usage of literally), most don’t understand that this can really end up hurting you. Most of you have probably heard “What I do on my own time is my own business,” and this was definitely true until Twitter and Facebook and their respective apps. What you do on your own time is only your business if you don’t broadcast it to the planet. Once something is posted online, as New York Representative Anthony Weiner has found out in a rather massive way, it cannot be removed; there will always be some trace of it, no matter how many times you delete it. Sure, this is not a big deal if what you put out there is “I love to lounge around in my underwear and eat Oreos and pickles,” but if what you post is “delivering a package for work…this work van blows chunks…the speed maxes out at 85mph,” you might find the response to be slightly more intense. Universities, graduate programs, internships, and employers are increasingly checking up on their potential and current students/ employees. So tweeting “delivering a package for work…this work van blows chunks…the speed maxes out at 85mph” told your employer several things (a) you are screwing around on work time, (b) you are tweeting/texting while you are driving, (c) not only are you doing this, but you are doing it in a company vehicle, (d) AND you are doing it at 85mph. Ohhh and you’re careless in several different respects. I do not know an employer that would let that slide. The same can be said of a student who spent college partying and posting pictures of his drunken shenanigans (including peeing on the Dean of the Medical School’s car) to his Facebook…the Dean had a very simple choice when said student applied for medical school and as part of the evaluation process, they Facebooked the student. DENIED! Keep this in the back of your mind, if you would be even remotely ashamed for your grandmother and her friends to happen upon it, probably keep it off the web. Look for Part Two in next week’s edition!

Local student attends Girls State at University of Arizona PHOENIX – With her junior year of high school behind her, Adrienne Hernandez is one of nearly 300 young women from across Arizona preparing to attend the 64rdAmerican Legion Auxiliary Girls State on the campus of the University of Arizona in Tucson, June 5-11, 2011. This premier program is a leadership conference designed to provide practical insight
into the working of government, to instill a sense of pride and loyalty to America and create friendships and memories that last a lifetime. Hernandez attends Superior High School. A key component of the Girls State program involves mock senate sessions complete with debating of bills that range in topic from
personal issues to political concerns. Campaigns are held to elect city, county, party and state officials. The elected Governor and Secretary of State return to preside over the following year’s Arizona Girls State. In addition to legislative forums, the girls hear distinguished guest speakers. “The Girls State experience is one
of both privilege and responsibility. While it offers each girl amazing opportunities for personal growth, there is certainly the expectation that she will be energized to share that learned knowledge with others in her local community,” said Penny Maklary, the Director of Arizona American Legion Auxiliary Girls State. Maklary, along with American
Legion Auxiliary volunteers, former girls state citizens and educators encourage the delegates to continue their community service and practice good citizenship. For more information on Girls State or the American Legion Auxiliary contact the Auxiliary Unit located in your city or the American Legion Auxiliary Department of
Arizona at 602-241-1080. As the largest women’s patriotic service organization in the world, it is fitting that The American Legion Auxiliary is the proud sponsor of both Girls State and Girls Nation. Founded in 1919, the Auxiliary boasts a membership of nearly 900,000 members and has a commanding presence in more than 9,500 communities nationwide.
Yee-Haw! Superior’s Night of the Cowboy is comin’ soon By Taylor Sheaffer Ritter That time of year is coming up… ohh yes, straw bales, wranglers and honky-tonk, with a little brew mixed in. Night of the Cowboy is heading towards us like a stampede so you best be ready to pull those britches up and dive right in, because it will be
here Saturday, July 30. Tina Gutierrez and Mike McKee are heading up the Superior Chamber of Commerce planning committee for this awesome event and is buzzing like a bee over all the plans she has to make the night a memorable one. Since it is a rather large event to put on, the committee would be very
happy to have the help of volunteers to make this night one for the Guinness record books. This year the wonderful party will be taking place at Los Hermanos and will include dinner, dancing, along with loads of lovely speeches by cool people. The fee for this magnanimous event to commemorate National
Cowboy Day is $15 per person for the dinner, $20 per person for the dance or $35 for both. The proceeds raise funds for the Superior Chamber of Commerce. There will be dinner music provided by local group, Los Romanticos; you might be familiar with their music if you’ve heard them play during the
Safari campouts. The Dance will be performed by the famously energetic Moonshine Mafia. The Superior Chamber of Commerce is in desperate need of volunteers for set-up and decorating…they are looking to transform Los Hermanos into a barn-style dance hall. It’ll be a bona fide hoe down!
Opening ceremonies start at 5 p.m., dinner at 6 p.m. and the dance from 8 p.m. to midnight. Please contact Mike McKee at 520-827-0471, Tina Gutierrez at 520827-0177 or the Superior Chamber of Commerce 520-689-0200 if you are willing to volunteer or would like more information.

It’s Free. It’s Easy. It’s the Law. One call to 811 gets underground utility lines marked for FREE – whether you are a homeowner or professional excavator. Every digging job requires a call—even small projects—so be sure to: • Call 811 two days before starting any digging project • Wait for the site to be marked • Respect the marks • Dig with care Not calling can be life-threatening and costly. You can harm yourself or others, disrupt service to an entire neighborhood, and potentially be responsible for injuries, repair costs, and criminal penalties.

Superior Little League: Knockin’ it Outta the Ball Park By Taylor Sheaffer Ritter If you’ve headed up or down Sunset Drive recently in the evenings, you have probably seen the bright lights of the new field. If you live in the vicinity of the field, you can hear the adorable young lady who is announcing for the games. And, if you live within a block of the field, you are probably pretty excited that those incredibly bright lights seem to be drawing all the bugs to them for a block radius, thus alleviating your back patio of the swarms. Not only does the use of the field have the aforementioned perks, it also means that the kids are busy! Super Busy! Little League provides a great outlet for the children of the community to get all that pent up energy out, it creates ready-made friends and it teaches team building and more importantly, the ability to work together for a great outcome. The Superior Little League has also produced some seriously talented athletes, as was proven this season with our fantastic Junior and Senior High baseball and softball teams: these kids mean business! When you head to a game, the kids are excited, their parents are excited, heck, even the birds flapping around overhead are excited (yet probably
hoping they don’t experience a Randy Johnson repeat and get knocked out of the sky by a ball). Some of this excitement comes from the fact that the teams are playing on a newly renovated field. For the first time, Superior Little League athletes will play home games on a grass field, donated graciously by Resolution Copper Mining. Resolution Copper Company took the opportunity to not only sod the little league field, but also insert some money back into the community by hiring Copper Resource Contracting and Superior Environmental to provide upgrades and renovations to the existing field. The work was extensive and, no doubt, many of you experienced the transformation; the work included leveling and surveying of the field, along with the installation of an irrigation system and sod in the outfield. In addition to the funding provided by Resolution Copper, in-kind donations were received from Tetra Tech for the purchase of a new storage unit and 5D Mining for the purchase and installation of a new flag pole. As a result of all financial help provided, the Superior Little League was also able to install new baseline fencing through funding received from 2010 season concession sales. Additionally, renovations to existing restroom
facilities have been made possible through donations received from Resolution Copper, Cementation, USA and Sunstate Sales. Luckily, the upgrades were able to begin prior to the 2010 season with the installation of outfield gates and the replacement of the backstop and dugout fencing. These upgrades were made possible
through donations received from 5D Mining and 2009 season concession sales. The fields were in tip-top shape for the season to begin. “We are very thankful to Resolution Copper Mining for their ongoing support as well as all donors, sponsors and volunteers that have helped make these field upgrades
possible,” members of the Superior Little League said. The season has been cruising right along and recently the Superior Little League announced its All Star Season will kick off on Wednesday, June 15, 6 p.m. with the regular season closing ceremonies and all-star team announcements at the Little League

Thanks to the residents of Superior and the wonderful community events like ‘Superior Has Heart’, hosted by a local volunteer committee and ‘Cancer Fight By Candlelight’, planned by Superior High School’s FCCLA group, over the last three years the American Cancer Society has had nearly $30,000 more support for its mission. Unfortunately, the first ‘Relay For Life of Superior’, in honor of Mike McKee, has been canceled, but the support of the local community continues on with other fundraising events. The American Cancer Society representative says, “Thank you to everyone for all you do and have done to support the American Cancer Society.” For more information on the American Cancer Society, please contact Tamika Davis at 602-952-7509 or tamika. davis@cancer.org
Vision
Continued from Page 1 people to tell him things they like, and then pick the one most important to them in a list. “We can do this several times and then begin to see a picture that emerges,” he said. This is what a “mind map” is. He said that in this kind of questioning, you start out talking about the place and end up talking about individuals. In talking about surveys the company has done in Florida, Wyoming, Hawaii, and Arizona (Superstition Vistas), he shared that a priority for this group of people in that new development, a healthy lifestyle was a priority. A primary orientation had to do with recreation and open space. An orientation in some communities was, he said, a need for significant change. Throughout the fun Q&A session that followed, several insights about Superior priorities emerged by a process of distilling the different forms of question on the computer. One fact that came to light among several was that the presence of family and friends in the community was a factor in why they lived there. Allsop said that was not the case in some communities. For more details about the study or with questions, call Olga Lopez at 520-827-4119.

Flowers For All ... Some of you may have known about it, some of you may not have…but the ladies at Copper Gecko had a test run of possible classes that they will be holding in the autumn when the shop opens back up following the Summer respite from the heat. As the first run began, Tina Gutierrez lovingly showed many encouraging students how to make flowers out of craft paper and man, were they smart! As the night unfolded, so did the many varieties of blooms made by the very apt students from the community of Superior. Look towards the end of the summer to find more information on the types of classes and times that will be held at the Copper Gecko, they are sure to be super cool! (Taylor Sheaffer Ritter photo)
