Friends of airman killed: ‘He always had a smile on his face’ BY ANDREA ESTRADA Glendale Star Staff Writer

It felt like another normal day for Amiri Myers. But a phone call with bad news changed everything. After finding out his best friend, Cody J. Fryhover, had been shot and killed, Myers said he ended the call immediately. “I can’t really explain how it feels. It feels unreal. Just before that happened, I was talking to him, texting him, Snapchatting,” Myers said. “And the next day, I found out.” Police said Fryhover, 21, who was a Luke Air Force Base airman, attempted to break into an Alta Camelback apartment at 4949 N. Seventh Street in Phoenix on August 18.

A tenant told authorities he shot the airman after Fryhover removed the patio door off its hinge and kicked the glass door. Fryhover was transported to a local hospital, where police said he was pronounced dead. “Losing a member of the Air Force family is always difficult to come to terms with, no matter the situation, and I send my sincere condolences to Cody’s family and friends following this tragic situation,” said Brig. Gen. Todd Canterbury, 56th Fighter Wing Commander, in a statement. U.S. Air Force Capt. Candice Dillitte told The Glendale Star the incident is under investigation and Phoenix police are working with the Air Force Office of Spe-

Senators discuss child sexual abuse act

cial Investigations. “Throughout that investigation, I think more details on what exactly transpired will come out,” Dillitte said. Myers, who lives in Leesburg, Florida, and met Fryhover at Leesburg High School when they were freshmen, doesn’t believe his friend wanted to burglarize the apartment. “That sounds like the Cody that would just be lost,” Myers said. “This has happened before; people mistaking their apartments for another person’s apartment, and that’s how I see it, because Cody was, in no way, capable of thinking like that. He was never worried about another person’s belongings or another person’s ‘anything.’” SEE AIRMAN PAGE 3

Sens. Paul Boyer and Heather Carter — lead sponsor and co-sponsor, respectively, of the Arizona Child Protection Act (AZCPA) — co-hosted a seminar at the South Mountain Community Library in Phoenix on August 19 to inform the public of the new legislation and answer questions about the act intended to aid sexual abuse victims. The AZCPA changes the statute of limitations for filing suits against perpetrators of sexual abuse of a child, as a University of Mew Hampshire study claims 1 in 4 girls and 1 in 6 boys will be a victim of sexual abuse before they turn 18. Before the act was put into place, claims of childhood sexual abuse had to be filed before the SEE AZCPA PAGE 2

victim reached the age of 20. Now, survivors both over and under the age of 30 have their chance to file civil suits extended. The AZCPA allows survivors born on or before May 26, 1999, when the legislation was enacted, a one-time, 18-month period to file a civil suit that lasts until December 31, 2020. Survivors born on or after May 27, 1999, have until they turn 30 — 10 more years than original law — to file a civil suit. Among those thankful for the new legislation is Bridie Farrell, a former U.S. speedskater who was a victim of sexual abuse as a child, and now speaks around the country as part of the Zero Abuse Project. The legislation, led by the two senators, cannot change her past, but can help to give some peace to those who experience the same crimes. “I have been public with my story for six and a half years, and I’ve never met someone who has stood up, without even knowing me, but has stood up. I’m talking nobody in the Olympic Committee, nobody in USA Speedskating, with all due respect no one in my family, no one in the U.S. State Legislature than Sen. Paul Boy-

er,” Farrell said. “And she (Sen. Carter) stood up, too, and said that whatever it takes we’ll get this bill passed.” Boyer, R-Glendale, said when he sponsored the AZCPA, he was contacted by several members of the community who were victims of similar abuse to what the act hopes to prevent.

Many of them felt they had no legal recourse until now to attain justice for the crimes committed against them. This legislation, he said, is something he is both proud of and hopes will serve as a first step in lowering rates or ending childhood sexual abuse. “This is one of those issues where you can look back and say, ‘If I did nothing else with my life, this is very satisfying.’ Just knowing that it helps in protecting kids is a big deal for me,” Boyer said. Carter, R-Cave Creek, also said the passed legislation, though it only technically affects Arizona, will help victims of other states to attain their own justice, as there are several states that are modeling their own legislation on sexual abuse suits on the Arizona method. “It’s a model for the rest of the country to follow as well,” she said. There are still many steps to take, in the eyes of both senators and those associated with the AZCPA. One course of action, they said, is put together preventative plan to keep this type of crime from happening in the future, including raising awareness in schools, churches and “other places where a kid

can be a kid.” For now, the passing of the AZCPA is still, they believe, a cause for celebration. “Anything we can do to stop this type of abuse is huge,” Boyer said. “Nobody deserves that, and we hope that this can be a start to something even bigger.”

Banner Health begins construction on new progressive care unit BY GLENDALE STAR STAFF Construction is underway on a new 40-bed patient care unit at the Banner Thunderbird Medical Center. Banner Health recently authorized the project, which costs $17.5 million and will provide support for patients who require advanced heart monitoring. The new progressive care unit will feature private rooms for patients who have a history of heart problems and require close monitoring of their heart rhythms during their stay. The unit will also serve as a stepping stone for patients well enough to leave the intensive care unit, but who require a higher level of monitoring than what’s provided in the hospital’s medical-surgical units. It will also include a lobby, a conference room and a private consultation room for doctors to meet with families.

“The new ﬂoor will allow us to get patients from the emergency room to a patient room more quickly, even during our busiest times,” Banner Thunderbird CEO Deb Krmpotic said. Construction will convert 36,774 square feet of shelled space — space constructed to meet future needs — on the sixth ﬂoor of Thunderbird’s south tower into the new patient unit. Smithgroup has been selected as the architect on the project and J. E. Dunn Construction has been chosen as the general contractor. When completed, Banner Thunderbird will have 595 licensed beds, making it the third largest hospital in the Valley. It’s anticipated the new unit will open to patients next summer. “It’s going to help make health care easier and life better for some of our sickest patients,” Krmpotic said.

Police searching for man Glendale standing up after attempted kidnapping for veterans BY GLENDALE STAR STAFF Glendale police are searching for a man who allegedly attempted to kidnap a teenage girl while she was waiting to be picked up by a school bus earlier this month. According to officers, the incident happened at 7:40 a.m. August 13 in the area of 63rd Avenue and Golden Lane. While the 13-year-old girl was waiting for the bus, she saw a man she didn’t know sitting on the rear of a white car in the far west parking lot of the Olive Tree apartments. Asking her if she had a boyfriend, the man approached her on foot. He grabbed her right arm and waist, but she escaped. Neither vehicle description nor the direction he ﬂed has been provided.

Desert Young Marines visit Navajo Code Talkers BY ERIC NEWMAN

Glendale Star Staff Writer

Four Glendale members of the Desert Young Marines — a Glendale branch of a national youth organization specializing in education and service — joined around 150 youth nationwide at Window Rock on August 14 to celebrate, honor and learn from World War II Navajo Code Talkers. The Young Marines traveled to take part in a three-day celebration of the group — of which just five veterans are still living — which transmitted secret messages across enemy lines using unique dialect as code. The language was unwritten at the time and of extreme complexity, making it incredibly difficult for Japanese enemies to detect the code on Pacific missions from 1942 to 1945. In 1942, around 420 Navajo people served the military as code talkers. For three days, including Navajo Code Talkers Day on August 14, the Young Marines took part in a variety of activities on the reservation, including participation in a celebratory parade, a trail run and clean up, community ser-

The event is a major annual programming aspect of the Young Marines, who celebrate those who have served the United States in a military capacity. “Navajo Code Talkers Day is an event that the Young Marines and the Navajo Code Talkers look forward to every year,” said Brenda McNulty, Young Marines event coordinator. “Our partnership between the descendants of the Navajo Code Talkers and the Young Marines has strengthened

difficulty of serving in the war, as well as the pride the Code Talkers have for their service, made the trip worthwhile. Torres would recommend the activities to anybody considering membership in the Young Marines, or simply those interested in learning about the history of the wars in which the United States has participated. “Being able to honor their bravery and service, that ability to be there in person, same with my kids, is something none of us will forget,” she said. This event, along with many others, served as confirmation for Torres of why she and her family are so proud to be part of the group. Since 1959 the Young Marines have grown from one chapter with a handful of members to 264 units and 8,500 youth and 2,500 volunteers. They have units in 40 states, Washington D.C., Japan and a variety of other countries. “It teaches them leadership, confidence and so many other positive traits,” Torres said. “And, if they’re able to do this type of thing where they learn about history and some amazing people, that’s even better.”

Why golf on a hot summer day? Because it’s there BY DAVID LEIBOWITZ Glendale Star Columnist

The emails came back to back early Tuesday afternoon, two apologies for canceling meetings on short notice. With my schedule suddenly as wide open as the upper deck at an Arizona Diamondbacks’ game, I did what any reasonable Arizona resident would do on a record-breaking 113-degree afternoon in August. I went to play golf. Over at The Phoenician, the cart kid seemed surprised to see me. “It’s too hot for most normal people,” he said. “But if you drink a lot of water out there, you should be OK.” Who doesn’t appreciate such unbridled optimism? I loaded the golf cart cooler with 10 bottles of water and headed out. Forget hitting my driver. I could have fired the ball out of a grenade launcher on the first tee and not endangered a soul —

the course was that devoid of signs of life. Even the jackrabbits looked a little woozy lying in the shade. You may ask why a grown man would risk heat stroke by playing 18 holes of golf in the middle of a searing August afternoon. Allow me to paraphrase the British adventurer George Leigh Mallory, who in 1923 was asked by a reporter for the New York Times why he wanted to summit Mount Everest. “Because it’s there,” Mallory famously explained. Because I can — that’s the only logical explanation for my strange fascination with doing things outside when few other folks will. Before taking up golf a few years back, I used to hike Piestewa Peak during the hottest part of the hottest days of summer. My goal? To be the only person on the mountain. Part of the motivation was foolish pride and part of it was

Don’t disrupt health care coverage BY JASON BARRAZA Guest Columnist

We hear a lot of talk these days of health care reform, but it’s important to consider the hundreds of millions of Americans who currently receive quality care thanks to their health plans. I am one of those Americans, and I think my story represents the peace of mind — in otherwise traumatic situations — that quality coverage can provide Arizonans. On one Sunday morning in 2016, I was getting ready to drive our family to church. I suddenly had this shooting pain in my back, and it felt like someone was squeezing my chest. I couldn’t breathe, and I thought I was having a heart attack. We immediately went to the hospi-

tal and, after a battery of tests, the doctors determined I would need surgery to remove my gall bladder. Fortunately, the procedure went smoothly, and thanks to my health plan I paid next to nothing. Without my health plan, this emergency would have been a major financial challenge for our family. Total costs would have exceeded $36,000. With our health coverage, we only owed $80. As policymakers look for ways to improve the health care system, it’s important they not disrupt coverage for those of us who are happy with our health plan. Families like mine.

how annoying other hikers can be with that peppy “hiya!” whenever you cross paths. Regardless, there was always someone else out hiking and spoiling the solitude. Golf in the extreme heat also inevitably draws a few hardy souls no matter how scorching the temperature. And it does have its advantages. Golfers who favor fancy courses will tell you that a summer round on a hot day is about 80% less expensive than playing in the fall. Golf in August is also at least twice as fast as playing a round in February. My Tuesday afternoon round was done in two hours and 10 minutes. Given that a round of golf is allegedly supposed to take four hours, being 46% more efficient only added to my sense of accomplishment. So did setting a personal best by drinking 14 bottles of water. I’ll spare you the details on restroom pit stops. Not long ago, I spoke to my doctor about undertaking outdoor activities when the Valley is as hot as the surface

of Venus. His sage advice: “Make sure you stay hydrated and stop if you start to feel lightheaded or begin to cramp. Mostly, just try to use common sense.” Unfortunately, if you read this column on a regular basis, you’re likely aware that common sense isn’t my strong suit. This explains the four wood I dunked into the water on the 18th hole, all the times I voted for Joe Arpaio and wearing a round of golf played in inhumane conditions as a badge of honor. Afterward, I contented myself with the knowledge that I fared better than Mallory did on Everest. He attempted another trek to the summit a year after that New York Times interview. Some climbers located his frozen corpse 75 years later on the mountain’s northern slope. All I got was a little sunburn on my nose and a double bogey on 18.

Getting people oﬀ the streets is fundamental BY CLINT HICKMAN

Maricopa County District 4 Supervisor

Everybody should have a place to call home. This country is too great, our economy is too strong and our duty to one another is too fundamental to accept otherwise. This is what I believe. I also understand it’s not that simple. Ending homelessness entirely is the right goal, but no matter how hard we work or how many great programs we support, it probably won’t happen in my lifetime or yours. But that doesn’t mean we stand on the sidelines and do nothing. As a business leader and a county supervisor, I’m proud to support ideas that have impact. The ones that provide jobs and second chances to those teetering on the edge. The ones that connect people to stabilizing resources at critical moments. The ones that make a positive difference not only in the lives of individuals, but entire communities. This summer, the Board of Supervisors approved $2 million in federal and county dollars to fund proven programs and initiatives helping to reduce homelessness, unemployment and repeat visitors to our jails. Many of these programs are run in partnership with our cities and towns, which are hyper-focused on community solutions that can make neighborhoods better. Here are a few examples that will improve quality of life in the West Valley: • Expanded partnerships with the cities of Avondale and Surprise to increase shelter options for the growing population of unsheltered individuals and families • Investments in community action programs which provide financial assistance and crisis case management to at-risk individuals in multiple cities and towns • Renewed agreements with trusted partners such as Native American Connections, Community Bridges,

A New Leaf and Lutheran Social Services, which provide housing, shelter and navigation services The county believes in regional solutions to homelessness because no single government, no single nonprofit and no single person — however well-intentioned — can solve this problem alone. But I also believe in personal investment. For most of my adult life, my family’s farm has been hiring people that others have written off, offering paid work to nonviolent offenders while they’re incarcerated. Recently, we expanded Hickman Family Farms’ reentry program to include temporary housing so those willing to work have a guaranteed roof over the head for as long as they need. I’m excited that Maricopa County is also working to make a difference in this area. One example funded this year is a collaboration called “Hand in Hand,” which connects those in the justice system who have experienced homelessness with supportive housing, physical/mental health and navigation services while in jail, and community services upon release. The people who benefit from Hand in Hand are the frequent ﬂyers. Those who come back to jail again and again, often for misdemeanors, many of which are related to lack of housing. This program looks at the individual’s needs and provides resources that give them the greatest chance of staying out of jail. Getting people off the streets and connecting them with affordable housing and jobs is an important part of building safe, healthy communities. Maricopa County is a regional leader and active partner on this issue, bringing people to the table and funding proven programs. We may not be able to do everything, but each of us can do something. I hope you’ll join us.

OPINION

Arizona high school students will receive ﬁnancial education this fall BY KIMBERLY YEE ARIZONA TREASURER Guest Columnist

As the back-to-school season is finally upon us, it is encouraging to think about all that our children will learn in this new academic school year. I was among the many parents in Arizona packing lunch boxes and taking the traditional “first day of school” photos of my children. As they headed into their new classrooms, I smiled, thinking about all of the opportunities they will have. This school year, Arizonans have something new to smile about as all our high school students will be taught financial literacy during their economics class as a requirement before they graduate. This change is due to legislation I advanced during my first weeks in office as the state treasurer. SB 1184 passed through both the Senate and the House of Representatives with wide, bipartisan support and was signed by Gov. Doug Ducey on April 11. The importance of Arizonans knowing the basics of personal money management being taught in schools became obvious 12 years ago, when I spoke at a student orientation for freshmen being introduced to college life. As I walked to the ballroom, where I was to give a speech, I saw a group of credit card companies lined up table after table, ready to register hundreds of young students as new carriers of credit cards. During the forum, I asked the college students in the audience, “How many of you just signed up for your first credit card?” Dozens of hands went up. Then I asked, “How many of you have ever taken a financial education class in your high school?” Not one hand went up. This eye-opening experience occurred more than a decade ago. And the situation has not improved. Consider the following statistics: • Outstanding student loan debt stands at $1.6 trillion, up from $1.52 trillion the previous year • Only 41% of adults in the United States have a budget and keep track of their spending • Of millennials ages 18 to 34, 1 in 8

individuals have debts in collections • 39% of millennial women don’t pay their bills on time and are twice as likely as millennial men to take out a high interest loan to cover a $2,000 emergency • A record 7 million Americans are three months behind in their car payments As Arizona’s newly elected treasurer, it was important for me to continue my advocacy of financial education and make this important issue a cornerstone of my administration. My financial literacy bill was just the start. In June, I appointed Arizona’s first task force on financial literacy, aimed at making sure all Arizonans will have the opportunity to attain proficiency in basic money management. This 17-member task force is already taking the next steps to bring resources to students, seniors, military veterans and vulnerable populations who need help with managing their money across our great state. While the task force is hard at work, our high school students will be starting the new school year with learning the basics about personal finances. This is a critical life skill. Finally, Arizona students will be prepared to manage their money before going out into the world as adults. They will be taught the basic skills of balancing their checkbook and understanding the consequences of not paying off credit card debt month to month. Financial education empowers young people to achieve financial freedom so they can attain their personal and professional goals. With that freedom, our young people can achieve anything. Kimberly Yee is the treasurer of Arizona. She oversees the cash management of Arizona’s $40 billion state budget and payments to agencies, local governments and schools and manages $16 billion in assets under management.

Oscar’s Pier 83 implements allergy-detection software BY NATALIE URQUIZA

Glendale Star Contributing Writer

There are times when going to a restaurant can be difficult, especially if you are allergic to specific foods. Oscar’s Pier 83, a Glendale staple for 15 years, now caters to such people. The restaurant recently implemented a new system: MenuStar by CertiStar. CertiStar was founded by Shandee Chernow, who has her own food allergies. She ended up quitting her job of selling software to start the company. “I decided there has to be a better way in the food industry to handle food-allergic customers,” Chernow said. When the owner of Oscar’s Pier 83, Ron Skehan, found out about MenuStar, he got on board with the new system because he wanted to provide accuracy in his foods’ ingredients to those with allergies.

“Before, all we did was guess or advise our customer, ‘It’s your allergy; you should know what you can and cannot have,’” Skehan said. When he met with CertiStar and put the system into effect, the process became more detailed. “My hope was to tap into a revenue stream,” Skehan said. “We were not offering the consumers the information they needed.” Chernow and Skehan made it clear the system is quick and easy. They said it works within seconds. “You can put in any combo of foods,” Chernow said. “There are 107 different foods that are known to cause food-allergic reactions. This makes it super easy. Just put in the list of what you are allergic to and you get the menu back and you get either green, yellow or red.” Through the MenuStar system, green confirms to guests there are no allergy possibilities, while yellow signifies the food can be allergy-friendly with modifications, whether it be leaving off a component or cooking the food in a clean pan. CertiStar wants to make sure no one has to rely on knowledge of a partic-

ular person or the restaurant to remember every single thing that is in the food. MenuStar gives a more fact- and data-based answer. “We don’t want to go with, ‘Eh, you should be OK,’” Chernow said. “We want to make sure we go with an abundance of cautions.” Oscar’s Pier 83 has a special iPad programmed with MenuStar. Staff can assist customers in researching their allergies if needed. In “less than a minute they can identify multiple items on our menu that are safe for them to eat,” Skehan said. “Believe me, there is a revenue stream that most restaurants aren’t tapping into. It is begging to pay off for us already.” Because the system works within seconds, it does not take longn to familiarize staff. If anything, Skehan said more money can be saved by reducing the amount of training time needed by employees. In the past, Oscar’s Pier 83 had to be

specific with employees, such as teaching them if a certain food contained gluten or not. “We save time training the individual by them picking up the iPad and clicking on an allergy,” Skehan said. “Everyone knows how to use a computer nowadays. Especially the young crew we have employed here.” According to Chernow, MenuStar’s reliability is due to its database of more than 300,000 foods and ingredients. The system stores each item the restaurant sells, down to the exact ingredients and brands. “We cross reference all the allergies a person puts in,” Chernow said. “For example, my pork allergy. We are not looking for the word ‘pork.’ Pork presents itself in many different ways.” When Skehan received the initial set up, he and his employees would go through dry runs for training. Occasionally they would spot a few mistakes. And if a mistake should arise, it can simply be corrected. “We bring it to the programmer’s attention and he has it corrected in less than a minute. Right now, we are running 98% accurate, and having only been on board for three weeks, it is pretty impressive.”

bellclub. Moving along, check out Village CBD. The herbal medicine store specializes in CBD and Kratom products. CBD is offered in a variety of forms, like infused beverages, edibles, supplements, tinctures/oils, vape/concentrate, hemp ﬂower and topical/skin care. There are event pet products. Kratom can be purchased in forms like capsules, powder, extracts and taffy. A variety of brands are offered. The shop does not require medical cards, doctor recommendations or prescriptions, as products are legal for over-the-counter sale, though customers must be at least 18 years old. Village CBD is at 5140 W. Peoria Avenue, Suite 150, between 51st and 53rd avenues. For more information on Village CBD, exactly what CBD and Kratom are or what customers use them for, visit village-cbd-inc.business.site.

freshments and networking, while the meeting will occupy the final portion. This event is targeted at individuals who own a downtown business or even just have some sort of stake in the success of the community. It is suggested that guests bring business cards, as networking aside there will be a door prize drawing. Bringing a door prize related to your business is suggested, too. The event will be once again held at Off the Cuff, 5817 W. Glendale Avenue, next to the Cuff restaurant. For more information, contact Glendale Chamber Special Projects Coordinator Shea Kinkead at 623-937-4754 or skinkead@glendaleazchamber.org.

Cardinals’ Isabella lets his work ethic speak for him BY CHRISTINA FUOCO-KARASINSKI

Andy Isabella has a reputation for not being a big talker. But outside of State Farm Stadium, he’s a different character. He loves his time with the Cardinals, especially working with the likes of coach Kliff Kingsbury and wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald. “It’s been fun,” Isabella said. “I think I’ve been down here for a month and a half now and it seems like I’ve been down here for a day. “They keep us super busy like from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. every day, every night.” That was before the preseason and his minor knee injury. He returned ready to play in mid-August. QB Charles Kanoff targeted Isabella four times, the last of which Isabella ran for a 59-yard TD against Oakland in August. Isabella’s journey to the Cardinals began at Mayfield High School in Mayfield, Ohio. He admits football wasn’t his first love; it was soccer and

track. His senior year at Mayﬁeld, he took ﬁrst at state in the 100-meter dash. “I was actually a really good soccer player growing up,” Isabella said. “My

mom wanted me to stick with soccer, but I always had a love for football for some reason. Even just growing up, my dad loved football, so we would watch his sport. I gravitated toward football as I got older.” He committed to UMass (the University of Massachusetts Amherst) to play college football. On the team from 2015 to 2018, he had 231 receptions for 3,526 yards and 30 TDs. Isabella was Pro Football Focus’ highest-rated wide receiver in college football, posting a season grade of 93.2. Isabella started as a mechanical engineering major and then switched to industrial engineering. When the “football thing” looked like it was going to work out, he switched majors so he could ﬁnish earlier. Isabella is thrilled to be with the

Cardinals, who made him their second round pick in 2019. The move reunited him with his former UMass coach, Spencer Whipple, who serves as an offensive quality control coach for the Cardinals. “It’s nice to have a familiar face,” he said. “He’s someone to look up to, too. He’s like an older brother to me.” If Isabella has one goal with the Cardinals, it’s to find his spot. “Hopefully, they’ll have a nice role for me to play and I can fill that role to the best of my ability,” he said. “Every guy there is talented and can make plays. You have to be on your A game — every practice, every meeting. “It can definitely become overwhelming. I try to treat each day as a new opportunity because there is so much talent.” That includes Chase Edmonds, a running back to whom he’s grown close. “We’ve been talking a lot,” Isabella said. “He’s really an outgoing and friendly guy.”

Soderstrom (2019), Barrett Hayton (2018) and Nick Merkley (2015). In addition, top prospects Kevin Bahl, Tyler Steenbergen, Nate Schnarr, Cam Dineen, Brayden Burke and Ivan Prosvetov will also attend. For more information, visit anaheimducks.com/rookiefaceoff.

Cunanan coming oﬀ on the right foot for the Vikings BY ERIC NEWMAN

Glendale Star Staff Writer

Kyle Cunanan, set to be the first freshman to start on the Sunnyslope football team since 2006, according to special teams coach Eric Tellez, made a lasting first impression in his initial varsity practice. The entire Vikings roster, meeting their potential kicker for the first time in an offseason training session, put lot of unspoken pressure on his foot as he was part of a one-man field-goal-kicking game with simple rules. Make it, and practice was over. Miss the kick, and the team would run sprints — a tough punishment on a hot summer day, especially with potential teammates and captions watching. The ball sailed just wide. Tellez, rather than being disappointed, was impressed. He had already seen some talent from Cunanan — he had made seven of eight kicks beforehand — but was most encouraged that the miss did not shatter the young player’s confidence. “He asked me the other day when he

would have a chance to do it again. He wanted that pressure. That was really cool to see,” Tellez said. Tellez has worked with Sunnyslope kickers for over a decade, and said the promise he has seen from Cunanan, matched with a need for a player of his talent, made the perfect ﬁt. The Vikings needed a kicker af-

Camelback Ranch announces 2020 schedule BY GLENDALE STAR STAFF Camelback Ranch in Glendale, entering its 12th year as the spring home of the defending National League champion Los Angeles Dodgers and Chicago White Sox, has announced its 30-game 2020 schedule. There will be Cactus League baseball at The Ranch daily from Saturday, February 22, through Sunday, March 22. The Dodgers and White Sox will have separate home opening days in 2020. The White Sox will face the Los Angeles Angels in their opener on Saturday, February 22. The Dodgers’ debut is the following day, when they welcome the Chicago Cubs on Sunday, February 23, to complete the attractive opening weekend of play. First-pitch times will be announced at a later date. Opponents, The Dodgers and White Sox face each other three times — Monday, February 24, and the ﬁnal two Saturdays, March 14 and March 21. Besides the Dodgers, ﬁve other 2018

postseason clubs — Cleveland Indians, Colorado Rockies, Chicago Cubs, Milwaukee Brewers and Oakland Athletics — will appear at Camelback Ranch in 2020. The hometown Arizona Diamondbacks will travel across town twice to play at Camelback Ranch — Saturday, February 29 vs. the Dodgers and Sunday, March 22 vs. the White Sox in the spring ﬁnale. Rounding out the 2020 slate of games at Camelback Ranch are appearances by the Cincinnati Reds, Kansas City Royals, San Diego Padres, San Francisco Giants, Seattle Mariners and Texas Rangers. Visit camelbackranchbaseball.com to sign up for a waiting list to be notiﬁed as soon as ticket packages — including season tickets, mini-plans, suites and group tickets — become available this fall. Single-game tickets go on sale Monday, January 6, starting as low as $10.

ter losing threeyear starter Peter Seivert to graduation, and nobody currently on the roster looked ready to start. Cunanan’s start comes as the result of him just looking to play freshman football with some school friends. A soccer player — he will try out for the Vikings soccer team in the winter sports season — Cunanan kicked a few footballs for fun in eighth grade, but the thought of varsity football never crossed his mind. “I thought I could try kicking, see how it goes, and this summer I went out and discovered I had a knack for it. I came out here, and they decided to bring me on up,” Cunanan said. Tellez said that, in his years of coaching, nobody has been as mature of a kicker at that age as Cunanan. The testament from the several alumni that stop by practice to help with current Sunnyslope kickers proves it, too. Cunanan has hit ﬁeld goals from around 40 yards in practice and is working on morphing his technique

from a soccer kick to football kick in order to elevate his consistency and aim. But, what stands out most is his willingness to work on what Tellez calls “some of the boring stuff.” “The thing about Kyle is he’s focused,” Tellez said. “There’s a lot of kids that are soccer players that can come out and kick 40-yarders like he does, but he’s got this drive that you don’t always see, to do the repetitions, working muscle memory over and over.” “And he’s not just a kicker, he’s a football player. He’s doing the sprints and conditioning and training just like everybody else, and that’s what makes him different from other soccer players on the football team.” Practices and the rise to the varsity level have been a positive experience for Cunanan, but when he kicks for Sunnyslope the regular season, there will be points, potentially to decide a win or loss, and not just summer sprints on the line. But, he said he is looking forward to the pressure each night will bring, and believes he has the tools to succeed. “There will deﬁnitely be some nerves at ﬁrst,” Cunanan said. “They’ll all be looking at me, and it will be my job to make the kick, but I think once I’ve done that for a little bit, it will be more comfortable and fun.”

Kurt, Brenda Warner-founded organization celebrates one year BY ERIC NEWMAN

Treasure House, a supportive living community for young adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities in Glendale, celebrated its first anniversary on August 25. Since becoming CEO in November, Lauri Tanner saw the facility grow from four residents to 50% occupancy in around 14 apartments. She said she would not be surprised if, by this time next year, the unit of 29 residents and one staff apartment are filled to capacity. Because of the individualized strategies and support for cognitively disabled young adults, focusing on memory, decision-making, learning and concentration, Tanner is astounded at not only the quick growth, but also the success she has seen from residents of maintaining a life they desire. “The residents that have come in, and the growth of confidence they’ve had, both physically and emotionally, is great. So many of them are more social and are getting to live a life they and their families have been hoping for,” Tanner said. Those benefiting include Dylan

Rhodes, a 19-year-old resident who moved to the facility in June from Peoria. He works at Banner Thunderbird Hospital full time and is saving money to purchase a car. He attested to the quality of care he has received and appreciates the level of independence Treasure House allows him. “Words can’t describe it — I love it so much,” Rhodes said. “I just love all the residents and staff and it feels like I have a second family. At home I needed frequent reminders, but here I am going

at my own pace and finding my own routine.” The residence serves individuals in their 20s and 30s who no longer receive federally mandated educational services and who want to build productive, meaningful and connected lives. But, Treasure House does not just serve simply as a place to live. Founded by Hall of Fame quarterback Kurt Warner and wife Brenda, the residence also provides employment opportunities and the ability to pursue a

variety of different hobbies and take fun trips throughout the Valley. Tanner has enjoyed many of the activities, and fondly remembers a celebrity game night Treasure House put on in February. Special guests at the Van Buren in Phoenix included Cardinals receiver Larry Fitzgerald interacting with Treasure House residents. She said the event raised around $330,000 in one night, just one instance of the support Treasure House has gotten from local people and businesses. “The enthusiasm we’ve seen from the community is tremendous. We were blown away by the generosity,” she said. While Tanner and the Treasure House staff is focused on creating and maintaining the residence in its current state, there have been whispers of expansion at some point, either within Arizona or throughout the United States. However, that is certainly not in the cards, just yet. “I think this model is great, and maybe we’ll get to a point that we’re spreading out,” Tanner said. “But, for now, our goal is to provide the best experience for the residents at this facility that we can.”

BY GLENDALE STAR STAFF Thirty years ago, Walking Connection co-founders, Northwest Valley residents and husband-and-wife duo Gene and Jo Ann Taylor could not have foreseen how far their dream would take them. It all began with a local walking club Jo Ann started in the Sun City area through her then-employer, Nike. As the group of walking enthusiasts grew, so did the media attention, which ignited interest by local companies and corporate sponsors, thus expanding the walking program across the Valley. Soon thereafter, a trail hiking program was added for the more adventuresome, seeking trail hikes throughout Arizona. Walking Connection was born. Then came the big step: creating

to it as it exists, untouched, in a place that is new to us. Walking simply is the best way to do that.” Gene added, “Much of western life moves past us through the pane of glass: cars, planes and, more frequently, the screen of a cellphone, tablet or 50-inch HD television. Transportation or electronics make up a lot of our dayto-day life experiences. “Taking an adventurous walk through a foreign landscape, along a footpath that has stood for thousands of years, or to walk into a village and meet an ethnic tribe of people who still live their lives as their ancestors did generations before them, changes that… forever.” For more information about Walking Connection’s small-group and independent adventure travel destinations, visit walkingconnection.com.

What are we going to do with what we know we need to do? Here’s an unusual story, created by a usual cause, with the usual effects, until now! Some sailors had been drinking. It was late on a dark night and they wished to return to their ship. They arrived at the place where they had left their rowboat and drew out the oars. They rowed and rowed and seemed to make little progress. Finally, the most sober among them discovered that they had never loosened the boat’s painter from the wharf. A painter is rope that is attached from the back or front of the rowboat to a wharf. There’s a lesson here that can set captives free. God asks us to do two things in order to go forward. Not only do we need to row, we also need to cut loose of past, present or future things holding us back. Unresolved issues behind us in our past can impede us from

what God and life have for us in the future. There’s no future other than the past when we are tied to the wharf. The harder we try, the more exhausted we become. Our effort is not as strong as a wharf. I’m sure all of us can relate to this in one degree or another. Some are tied to wounds from their childhood. Others are tied to unmet expectations they had of themselves or others. Some are tied to a spouse who cheated on them, a pastor who disappointed them, a business partner who betrayed them or a person

who offends or offended them. Some are tied to humanistic philosophy and a world view that produces nothing but confusion in the end. Some are tied to besetting habits. Some are tied to fear of the future and what it will bring. Others are tied to false self-image and identity issues. The list goes on and on. Think of the rope of unforgiveness. Unforgiveness is the rope which ties us to the wharf of the past. We can row like crazy, but wherever we go our unforgiveness goes with us. We are handcuffed to the one who caused our pain. It’s like dragging around a person who weighs 500 pounds with us wherever we go. It wears us out. We eventually give up, coping with but not confronting the rope which ties us to the wharf. Forgiveness is not for others. Forgiveness is for us. It’s the key to the handcuffs, freeing us from them. We are free, but we need to uncuff ourselves to experience what can be, rather than what was. Playing the victim only reinforces unforgiveness by blame-shifting. Victimization may empower us to row harder and faster on the fuel of hate or revenge. But, row as we will, we will still be tethered to the wharf of victimization. Like a rat inside the cage on the wheel of misfortune, we’re going nowhere. May I say something personal? You are not a victim. You are a human being, made in the image of God, who had something bad, even devastating, happen to you. What happened to you is not who you are. Quit taking on a false identity or you will be tied to the wharf ad nauseum. You will become a lightning rod for calamity, and a mighty magnet attracting problems from near and far. Many of you would agree with much of what I have written so far. The key is doing something about it. The solution is often as simple as untying the rope. The rope, not the wharf, is the problem. Here’s the solution all effective, life-transforming counseling is aim-

ing you toward. When you are finally ready, loosen your grip on the rope of your issue, then let go. Don’t look back. You’re not going that way. Now that we know what we need to do, what are we going to do with what we know we need to do? Probably nothing. Here’s an explanation from author James Clear. “Human beings have been procrastinating for centuries. The problem is so timeless, in fact, that ancient Greek philosophers like Socrates and Aristotle developed a word to describe this type of behavior: Akrasia. Akrasia is the state of acting against your better judgment. It is when you do one thing even though you know you should do something else. Akrasia is procrastination or a lack of self-control. Akrasia is what prevents you from following through on what you set out to do.” Why do we do this? Our brain values long-term goals for our future self, when it’s in the future. But when the time comes to decide in the present, we will no longer make a choice for our future self. We are in the present and our brain is thinking about the present self. Researchers have discovered the present self likes instant gratification, not long-term payoff. Being present-minded takes us backward to the road of least resistance and back to being tied to the wharf. People, this isn’t information, it’s illumination. Understanding how our brain works, then managing your brain, empowers you to bridge the gap between where you are and where you want to be. Decide to be future-minded. A decision is a breakthrough into your real self in seed form.

West Valley robotics team wants region to get involved BY ANDREA ESTRADA Glendale Star Staff Writer

PUZZLE ANSWERS

Ten years ago, when Pavan and Sharon Vasudev started coaching the Beep Patrol, a FIRST Robotics team from Litchfield Park, they didn’t know what to expect. Today, the couple mentor and encourage K-12 children in the West Valley to be science and technology leaders and innovators. “I’m an engineer, and I wanted to do something with my children that would help develop them. I heard about this program called FIRST LEGO League,” Pavan said. “We didn’t know what we were getting into, but jumped headfirst in. It was an amazing experience.” That program is one of four research and robotics programs under FIRST Robotics, a worldwide, youth-serving nonprofit helping young people discover a passion for STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) and develop skills they’ll need to succeed in today’s competitive workforce. The four programs — First LEGO League Jr. (6-10), FIRST LEGO League (9-16), FIRST Tech Challenge (12-18) and FIRST Robotics Competition (1418) — exhibit a series of team-based robotics challenges throughout the year, including designing, building, coding and operating Android smartphone-controlled robots, as well as industrial-size ones. “The competitions are unlike anything else. They make the children feel

like rock stars. What you see there is all the teams are cheering for each other. As much as there’s competition in wanting to have the best robot, it drives us to support the community,” Vasudev said. That kind of attitude reflects some of FIRST Robotics’ philosophies, including that one of “Gracious Professionalism.” According to the nonprofit’s website, “Gracious Professionalism” is a way of doing things that encourages high-quality work, emphasizes the value of others and

respects individuals and the community. Unlike other STEM programs, FIRST Robotics is full-encompassing, Sharon said. “We promote the entire engineering life cycle … promote what the industry calls soft skills; the business side. It’s just as important for these kids to learn to grow their business as it is for them to develop their tech skills,” she said. Recently, the Beep Patrol, which is made up of more than 25 student team

members, held a presentation at Arrowhead BMW for WESTMARC — the Western Maricopa Coalition — which supports six issue committees that focus on specific economic development workforce needs in the West Valley, including education and workforce development. The team presented STEM, leadership, communication and other skills they’ve learned through the programs, Pavan said. “The education committee, we’ve seen their strategic report where they talk about increasing STEM; increasing soft skills in students K-12. We know that (FIRST Robotics) is key to both of those together,” he said. The students also talked about forming a STEM coalition between First Robotics, WESTMARC and other West Valley institutions, Pavan added. According to Sharon, the East Valley outnumbers the West Valley when it comes to FIRST Robotics teams. For that reason, she encourages parents and the youth to get involved. “It doesn’t matter your education or your skill set. There’s a place for you to mentor these kids,” she said. “You can add value to them.” According to its website, a FIRST Robotics mentor can be a person of any age and can bring either technical or nontechnical expertise to the program.
