Truex Jr. steers support to cancer patients BY CHRISTINA FUOCO-KARASINSKI West Valley View Executive Editor

o Martin Truex Jr., racing in the NASCAR circuit means more than jockeying between competitors. The New Jersey native and his longtime partner, Sherry Pollex, use his position to support the community with causes like ovarian and childhood cancers. “We were so fortunate as kids to be healthy and to have great families and access to things to be successful,” Truex Jr. said. “We felt very fortunate, and we do our part to help give back to kids.” Truex Jr. and Pollex established the Martin Truex Jr. Foundation in 2007, which started as a way to help children in need. In 2014, Pollex was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer and the couple refocused their mission to raise awareness, boost advocacy and generate ﬁnancial support for

Pollex’s cancer recurred in December, according to her Instagram. “Unfortunately, my cancer is back (which is expected with Stage 3C recurrent ovarian cancer as the cancer begins to outsmart the drugs we are on),” Pollex said in her posted message, which included photos of her and Truex Jr. in her hospital room. “So here I am going to battle again. “Praying my doctors can remove all of the disease so I can start chemo again soon and be out there fighting for all of you soon! Much love to all of you out there fighting or caring for a loved one that is.” The Martin Truex Jr. Foundation recently broke ground on pediatric emergency department at Novant Health in Huntersville, North Carolina. NBC Sports reported the foundation is well known within racing circles for its Catwalk for a Cause in Statesville, North Carolina. It has steered $600,000 toward cancer initiatives at Atrium Health and Novant Health in Charlotte. The foundation and Pollex’s organization, Sherry Strong, celebrated the grand opening of the Sherry Strong Integrative Medicine Oncology Clinic at Novant Health’s new Weisinger Cancer Institute in Charlotte, North Carolina. Truex will put rubber to the road on Saturday, Nov. 6, during the NASCAR Xfinity Series Championship Race at Phoenix Raceway. Truex won the first race of the

NEWS 2021 season in Avondale in March. “That was my first win at the track,” he said. “I always feel like it’s a good track for me. It was one of my better tracks until they repaved it in 2011.” Then known as Phoenix International Raceway, the track was repaved into a reconfigured 1-mile oval for about $10 million. “It’s been hit or miss since they repaved it,” said Truex Jr., the driver of the No. 19 Auto-Owners Insurance Toyota Camry for Joe Gibbs Racing. “The last couple of years have been tough on us. We’re definitely feeling really good about it now.” Besides Avondale, he won Martinsville I, Darlington 1 and Richmond II this season. He is one of seven Cup Series drivers to have won multiple races this year (Kyle Larson, Alex Bowman, Ryan Blaney, Kyle Busch, Denny Hamlin and Chase Elliott). For the 2022 NASCAR Cup Series, which starts at the Daytona 500, fans will see cars that are more cost effective for teams and safer for drivers. It will also reportedly intensify the quality of racing, “It’s going to be a big learning curve

Rooney...continued from page 1 “Prior to my experience here in Avondale, I was a deputy chief for the Peoria Fire Department, and under my duties there I was the emergency manager for the city of Peoria for a little over nine years,” Rooney said. “Then, when I went to the city of Lodi, California, I was not only the fire chief, I was the emergency director as well. So, I feel like I have a lot of knowledge and expertise in that area. I believe that helped in their decision to appoint me into this position here.” In his new role, Rooney will report to the public safety chief, former Avondale Police Chief Dale Nannenga. “Assistant Chief Rooney is well qualified to handle this new role,” Nannenga said. “With the enhanced coordination between the police and fire departments as a result of this public safety restructuring, the assistant chief for emergency management will serve as a bridge between the two areas to ensure that emergency operations in the city are efficient and well coordinated.”

Rooney’s long and distinguished career in the fire service was honored when he was recently inducted into the Arizona Fire Service Hall of Fame, which recognizes individuals who have made a significant, positive contribution to the fire service and their community and which brings credit to the fire service. He joins a list of 59 other fire leaders who received this honor. “I was very surprised, and it was very surreal,” Rooney said. “I’m really humbled by the fact you work at your career and you do it for a long period of time and you always wonder if you’re making a difference and you always wonder if you’re doing it right. When things like this come up, it kind of reassures you that you did. And, so, I’m really thankful and grateful for the communities I’ve worked for and the ability to be able to make a difference.” Rooney said he’s looking forward to paving the way for future assistant chiefs of emergency operations. It will ultimately benefit the Avondale community. “It’s starting everything from the ground up. It’s putting everything to-

gether and working with both police and ﬁre in what our ultimate goal is for the public safety of the citizens of Avondale,” he said. “It’s building what we want, building what we need to do and having the resources to do that. That is all really exciting to me.” A West Valley resident since 1984, Rooney is thankful he has been able to serve the communities he cares about. “It’s the honor of serving. They’ve all given me the ability to serve the public. That’s what I’m about.

Great Hearts breaks ground in Buckeye NEWS

WEST VALLEY VIEW NEWS | NOVEMBER 3, 2021

BY LAUREN SERRATO

West Valley View Staff Writer

reat Hearts broke ground on its first school in Buckeye on Oct. 26, during a ceremony attended by Mayor Eric Orsborn, Great Hearts Arizona President Erik Twist and preparatory headmaster Tony Cruz. In response to an increasing demand for top-tier education across the Valley, representatives of Arizona-born and -based Great Hearts Academies decided to expand its network of nonprofit public charter schools. Roosevelt Preparatory Academy is slated to open fall 2022 in Buckeye. Orsborn acknowledged the addition of a new Great Hearts school in Buckeye will add to the city’s ongoing mission to give students a quality education in their hometown. “As the mayor of Buckeye, one of the most important jobs I have is ensuring our future generation of residents have access to the best education possible and Great Hearts delivers on that and more,” Orsborn said.

“The class of 2021 had nearly 700 students graduate and secured over $58 million in merit-based scholarships, achieved higher than the national average on SATs and ACTs, so we cannot wait for this campus to open its doors in August of next year.” The Roosevelt Campus is named after Quentin Roosevelt, the youngest son of the 26th U.S. president, Theodore “Teddy” Roosevelt, and First Lady Edith Roosevelt. The new school’s mascot will be the Aces, a nod to Quentin’s career as a pursuit pilot during World War I. Erik Twist, Great Hearts Arizona president, said he hopes the students who will soon fill the Roosevelt campus will emulate Quentin Roosevelt. He’s confident in their success because of Great Hearts’ reputation in shaping responsible, dedicated students. “Great Hearts is more than just preparing kids for a career, for the workplace, we do that better than anyone in this state, and we can prove that by the men and women that are now building great

to solve problems.” Tony Cruz, Great Hearts Roosevelt headmaster, ended the ceremony by acknowledging the growth of the city of Buckeye but said there is much more to the city than its population, similar to Great Hearts being more than its successful numbers. “I’m reminded that it is not the size of a city that represents its quality,” Cruz said. “We are growing fast, and we will continue to do so. But that will not make us great. We will attract large companies and create economic opportunities. We will build the infrastructure necessary to create economic opportunities to support them, but that is not going to make us great. “What will make the city of Buckeye great is not the number of people here but the quality of those people, the men and women who committed themselves to the pursuit of the highest ideals of quality service to one another. … We at Great Hearts have the blessing of joining you in doing this. Our contribution is unique in that we will cultivate the souls of the children here so that one day they can continue the good work of making the city great as it grows.” Roosevelt Preparatory Academy will be located at Jackrabbit Trail and the Roosevelt Canal. Applications for Roosevelt Preparatory Academy run from Nov. 8 to Dec. 10. If more applications are received than seats are available, all applications received during open enrollment will be entered into a random lottery on Jan. 19 and ordered on a wait list. Offers and registration will begin on Jan. 20. For more information, visit greatheartsroosevelt.org.

That is what Great Hearts has stood up to do, and that’s what it does so well,” Twist said. Roosevelt will be the 23rd Arizona location for Great Hearts. The 25-acre campus will be its largest. Roosevelt Prep will be the ﬁrst Great Hearts school with a new architectural design that lends to a more classical look with large roman columns. The school will serve approximately 800 K-8 students when it opens and will expand each grade level until it becomes a fully enrolled K-12 campus. At full capacity, Roosevelt will accommodate about 1,100 students. During the groundbreaking breaking ceremony, Lt. Col. Peter Cossette spoke to the crowd about his experience as a father of two children who attend a Great Hearts school. “At Great Hearts, the teacher’s aides, the instructors, the teachers themselves, the school leadership and the kids’ classmates have been such a huge part of shaping their lives, and we are really grateful to have been a part of that,” Cossette said. “This school’s devotion to the growth of our kids has inspired us as parents. … This school, the curriculum and their teachers have built resilient kids that have an incredible foundation

total, the city will remove 26 trees and receive 135 new trees with this program. “This partnership advances safety and sustainability in Avondale,” said Danae Presler, Avondale’s sustainability officer. “The city is pleased to increase the overall tree canopy in our community while also helping ensure safety and reliability of the local electrical grid.” The extra trees will be planted in public parks and rights of way in Avondale’s SRP territory, improving community aesthetics and adding to the city’s shade canopy. Planting more trees also helps reduce excess CO2, filter out air pollutants, and provide beneficial habitat for avian wildlife. The city also recognizes how precious wa-

ter is in our desert environment and will be choosing water-wise trees that are drought tolerant and require low water use. “As part of the service we provide customers, each year SRP’s tree crews trim and remove thousands of trees growing directly under power lines,” said Lori Jones, SRP’s maintenance services manager. “This program goes one step above. Not only do we remove encroaching trees that pose reliability risks and potential safety hazards, we replace each removal with at least three power-line-friendly trees that help beautify the community and increase its urban canopy.” If not properly managed, certain trees pose risks to power reliability and public

safety, especially during monsoon season. Avondale and SRP take pride in the community having safe, reliable power throughout the year. Tree removals will begin Nov. 9, and plantings will start Nov. 15. The program is expected to be completed by early December. Avondale residents can help grow the city’s tree canopy by planting trees in their own yards. Planting the right tree in the right location can also help reduce electricity bills by naturally cooling your home. SRP provides up to two free desert-adapted trees for customers through the SRP Shade Tree Program. For more information, visit srpnet.com.

As the community and event grow, Avondale Fiesta will continue to bring people together to embrace the rich culture in Avondale.” Bryan Hughes, Avondale Parks and Recreation director, added, “Avondale’s event team did an exceptional job of celebrating the Hispanic culture in Avondale,

while driving visitors and attention to the businesses in our historic core, Old Town. “Avondale is honored to receive such an award, as it recognizes the dedication it takes to provide quality programs for our community.” Annually, the association recognizes, awards and publicly honors Arizona communities that demonstrate excel-

lence in long-range planning, resource management, and innovative approaches to deliver superb parks and recreation services with fiscally sound business practices. Agencies are invited to submit applications within multiple categories. For more information, go to youtu.be/ cakfwfqVvQI or visit avondaleaz.gov/ events.

n areas with overhead power lines, certain trees cause safety concerns, as they can grow too tall and come into contact with power lines, bringing potential for fire or power outages. To address this concern, the city of Avondale, in partnership with Salt River Project’s (SRP) Right Tree Right Place program, will soon remove city-owned trees encroaching on power lines and instead plant new appropriate power-line friendly trees. At least three new trees will be planted for every one tree removed. SRP will provide the city with trees of a more suitable height in areas where trees are growing too close to power lines. In

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Make educated decision on vaccinations

Editor: There is a problem with Dr. Till’s impassioned plea for everyone to get vaccinated for COVID-19 (Oct. 27, West Valley View). Her contention that the tragic deaths in her ICU would have been prevented if the patients had been vaccinated is not supportable with evidence. Surely Dr. Till is aware that the CDC recently changed its definition for “vaccine.” In the definition for “vaccination,” the word “immunity” has been switched to “protection.” Perhaps the change was because, in August, Dr. Kobi Haviv, medical director of Herzog Hospital in Jerusalem, said “85% to 90% of the hospitalizations are in fully vaccinated people” and “95% of the severe patients are vaccinated.” Indeed, the Illinois Department of Public Health last week reported that 77.7% of its COVID-19 deaths were vaccinated. Furthermore, why no mention of natural immunity in Dr. Till’s article? Multiple studies now have demonstrated the power of immunity acquired by previously having the virus, suggesting that natural immunity is as good or better than vaccine-induced immunity. The refusal to acknowledge what is known about protective immunity and the continuous employment of manipulative messaging has damaged the credibility of public health officials. Nevertheless, Dr. Till offers a piece of advice we all would do well to follow — “make an educated decision for your health, your family and the community.” Steve Harrison Buckeye

‘Is Kelly missing the mark?’ Editor: First, I’d like to compliment J.D. Hayworth on his column with the above title. For the first time in a long time, he chose to discuss an issue of national interest. After 12 years in Congress, he’s undoubtedly well-versed in public policy, and it was nice that he chose to discuss PFAS (polyfluoroalkyl substances) instead of loading the column with snarky, racist comments about the country’s Democrat leaders. PFAS are apparently chemicals used around the world in military ordinance. The United States has determined that PFAS have dangerous long-term effects on the users, and J.D. is rightfully concerned that if our military is forced to obey our laws with regard to public health, it will make us noncompetitive with the rest of the world. Interestingly, or ironically, one of the major news networks ran a story last week about the VA’s refusal to treat returning veterans for cancers and other ailments from long-term exposure to known carcinogens in Afghanistan and other places. J.D.’s article seems to acknowledge that PFAS are dangerous to human health, but they are willing to overlook that problem in the interest of obtaining military products as cheaply as possible. J.D. doesn’t directly offer a solution, but his column seems to be endorsing letting the military ignore public safety issues in the interest of making the strongest military organization in the world stronger. I hope that J.D. will discuss this important issue in more detail, including what the responsibility of Veterans Affairs should be when military heroes return home. Ken Scruggs Buckeye

Was I right or was I right? Editor: For a long time, back in the 2010-20 years, I wrote almost weekly letters to the View blasting progressives for their insidious attacks on the Constitution. I equated progressives to a plague, which, if not stopped, would change our republic into a communist dictatorship. For my patriotic insight, many years before it’s time, I was regularity castigated by left-wing zealots. I was called a racist and many worse things for my patriotism and love for our great nation. So now we are in 2021 and we have the worst president in history trying to do everything in his power to destroy our way of life and to destroy the greatest nation in history. The progressives are insane as they follow our senator into the washroom at ASU to harass her. Parents are being attacked by the feds for exercising their First Amendment rights against the communist-controlled school boards all across America. I could go on and on and on and on! But I don’t need to. Today, America is waking up to the progressive/communist threat as never before. Hopefully it is not too late. Hopefully with God’s help, America will

endure these sinister attacks, and we can Make America Great Again, Again! So, my question to all of you in the West Valley is, when I was writing all my letters five to 10 years ago, was I right or was I right? The answer is that I was as “right as rain.” I was a prophet and proud of it. No apologies necessary and thanks to all the patriots. Keep up the fight against progressive tyranny! God bless the American republic forever. Roy Azzarello Mesa

OPINION

Grant Woods was the best of Arizonans WEST VALLEY VIEW NEWS | NOVEMBER 3, 2021

BY DAVID LEIBOWITZ West Valley View Columnist

very story requires a headline, so when Grant Woods left us Oct. 23 at age 67, the headline writers called him “Former Arizona Attorney General.” This is absolutely true — Grant served two terms as AG between 1990 and 1998 — but also a wretchedly poor summation of everything he encompassed as a human being. Father of five. Grandfather to JoJo. Husband. Attorney. Writer. Talk show host. Political commentator. Playwright. Musician. Community volunteer. World-class joker. Tennis player. Patriot. Basketball court trash talker. Songwriter. Pain in the butt. I’ll stop there, though the breadth of Grant’s many passions calls out for more. If it’s possible to cram a century of living into 67 years, Grant did so,

which is a life lesson I will take away from having known him. Another one is to lead with your heart, to follow love where it takes you. Grant was passionate about music and writing songs. In 2015, he asked me to help him drum up publicity for one of his endless side projects: songs he’d written performed by artists with Arizona ties. He had lined up a long list of talented musicians, including Nils Lofgren of the E Street Band, Lawrence Zubia of the Pistoleros, bluesman Hans Olson, and legendary local vocalists Alice Tatum and Francine Reed. I’ll confess to some initial fear that a lawyer dabbling in songwriting might be, you know, not great. I never should have worried. My favorite track on the album is “Me and Preacher,” sung by Blaine Long. It remains on my Spotify playlist, and I sing along every time it pops up. Some of Grant’s lyrics: “You’ve got to try when the burning’s high/ And you must believe when the

pain is deep/ You’ve got to march right on, singing that gospel song. The day will come, when the Lord will set you free.” That was Grant, always marching on, singing his truth. We worked together for some clients where lawyering and public relations intersected. I admired his intelligence and charisma. Grant was rarely the first to speak. He never dominated the conversation. He was the voice of wisdom, an experienced legal mind who sliced through the posturing, bad ideas and ego clashes. He took pride in getting the team where we needed to go. He was like that on the basketball court at lunchtime, too. Grant liked to bring the ball up court, a point guard who distributed to teammates and launched Steph Curry-length jumpshots, of which he made a surprising number. No hoops game with Grant was complete without trash talk. One of the guys we played with was an assistant city manager named Dave,

John Nix 602-234-3426 9515 W Camelback Rd, Phoenix geico.com/phoenix-nix ¡Hablamos Español!

who like Grant never met a shot he didn’t like. Grant prided himself on getting in your face on defense. Dave, not so much. This led Grant to refer to him as “Ave” for days on end. Why? “Because there’s no D in Dave.” At age 28, fresh out of law school, Grant served as chief of staff for then-Congressman John McCain. Theirs was a lifelong bond marked by a mutual love of Arizona, its sports teams and its politics. Both men put people before party, service before self. At McCain’s funeral, Grant’s eulogy gained national attention. His final summation of the great senator provides another lesson to be remembered. “He served his country with honor,” Grant said of his friend. “He fought the good fight. He finished the race. He kept the faith.” That was Grant Woods in a paragraph. He marched right on. He fought the good fight. He was the best of us. David Leibowitz has called the Valley home since 1995.

in the area that are 100 acres or more have been developed into solar farms by large energy companies. Many 1-acre residential lots can also be found in the area. Unfinished 1-acre lots are in high demand in this part of Tonopah, with the average selling price being $50,000 per acre. “During the pandemic, we saw an increase in housing demand, and with the shortage of affordable homes in the Valley, we see a tremendous opportunity to develop in the area,” said Kuldip Verma, CEO of Vermaland. “There is a big shortage of finished lots, so we are getting ready for zone changes and preplat.” The plans include 2,500 single-fam-

ily homes, 500 multifamily units, and commercial and industrial complexes. Once the zoning is finished, Verma plans to either sell or partner with a builder to develop the community. In addition to several solar projects, Vermaland’s most recent residential project was a gated subdivision located in the foothills of the White Tank Mountains at Highway 303 and Northern Avenue. The 246-lot development was sold in late 2019. Vermaland has been in the land business as a wholesale buyer and seller for 20 years. Verma and his team donated $5 million in land and cash to the Vermaland Charity Foundation to be used for residential and commercial development.

Business Briefcase

BY LAUREN SERRATO

West Valley View Staff Writer

ello, and welcome back to Business Briefcase. A build-for-rent community just broke ground in Avondale, and we’re going to share everything we know. When complete, the community will offer 187 homes to West Valley residents. Avondale is growing at a rate of nearly 2.5% annually and its population has increased by 21.15% since the most recent census. This year, the city has reached its highest population of 92,363. The development will help support the increasing population. Scottsdale-based The Empire Group of Companies’ The Village at The BLVD will include 187 single-family homes for rent within the gated community located in Avondale, just west of Avondale Boulevard on the southwest corner of 111th Avenue and Roosevelt Street. A groundbreaking ceremony held Oct. 26 included presentations from

Avondale Councilmember Curtis Nielsen; Economic Development and Tourism Director Ken Chapa; Empire Group of Companies’ President of Land Development Shelby Duplessis and Empire Group partner Randy Grudzinski. “The city of Avondale is excited to see this project come to fruition,” Mayor Kenn Weise said. “This is exactly the kind of development the city envisioned for The BLVD. The Village at The BLVD will offer high-quality residential amenities that are in such high demand in the Southwest Valley. This in turn will attract complementary investment — such as more dining, entertainment and retail establishments — in this booming corridor.” Village at The BLVD is a gated community that will offer one-, two- and three-bedroom floor plans with private backyards. The homes all have a single story with 9-foot ceilings, stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops and a state-of-the art smart home technolo-

gy package. Situated on approximately 15 acres, the community will include a pool and clubhouse area with barbeques, a fitness center, walking paths, and a greenbelt area for recreation activities. “We are pleased to be working with the city of Avondale and bringing Village at The BLVD to the area,” Duplessis said. “Demand for rentals is strong and people are looking for space and privacy yet still wanting to be close to shopping and entertainment. Village at The BLVD is designed with a focus on walkability.” Empire Group has four other communities in development in the West Valley. The first to open was Village at Harvard Crossing in Goodyear, which is now fully leased. Empire Group partners with Stellar Residential on the leasing and management of its communities. Village at The BLVD is targeted to begin leasing in September 2022. To learn more about Empire Group of Companies and Village at The BLVD, visit builtbyempire.com.

Harvard Investments, Toll Brothers, Värde acquire Estrella

BY WEST VALLEY VIEW STAFF

arvard Investments, Toll Brothers and Värde Partners formed a joint venture to acquire the remaining undeveloped land in Estrella, a mixed-use master-planned community in Goodyear. The acquisition includes more than 18,000 acres of entitled land. This purchase is one of the largest acquisitions of an active master-planned community in Arizona to date. “We are excited to add Estrella to our portfolio of properties across the southwestern United States and to work with both Toll Brothers and Värde Partners to apply our collective knowledge to the future growth of Estrella,” said Tim Brislin, vice president of Harvard Investments. “Our intention for Estrella is to build on its foundation of excellent planning and its reputation as a best-in-class master-planned community.” Estrella is already home to more than 7,000 families. The community offers amenities, including two clubhouses, resort-style pools and a waterpark, 72 acres of lakes, 50-plus miles of paths and

trails, and the Yacht Club of Estrella. The assets acquired include current and future home sites, multifamily and commercial parcels and developer-owned amenities, including the award-winning Nicklaus Design course at the Golf Club of Estrella and community welcome center Casa Lucero. “Toll Brothers is excited to partner with Harvard Investments and Värde Partners as we continue to shape the growth of this exceptional community,” said Bob Flaherty, group president for Toll Brothers. “We look forward to being part of the development team and an active builder in Estrella, together with a broad roster of quality builders who have been and will continue to be a driving force behind the growth of this extraordinary community.” Estrella will continue to actively develop new neighborhoods for a wide variety of builders, with additional parcels coming online in the near term. Future commercial opportunities will be market driven. Estrella currently represents nearly 18% of the land area in Goodyear, and future plans for the area will not only add to the population and

job growth but also are expected to continue to have a positive impact on the local economy. In addition to enhancing the existing amenities, as development continues it is anticipated that additional amenities will be added for Estrella residents. “Värde Partners continues to invest meaningfully in residential development projects in the Phoenix metro area, and we see the strong potential for Estrella to grow as a leading master-planned community

under this venture with Toll Brothers and Harvard Investments,” said Brendan Bosman, managing director at Värde Partners. Planning includes the continuation of the Lucero and Montecito villages, as well as new villages east of Estrella Parkway. With the active and vibrant home buyer market, the goal is to increase the variety of new home offerings and the number of builders, and to add more Estrella neighborhoods for home shoppers.

Badminton is therapy for Desert Edge

BY KARLI KARANGES

West Valley View Contributing Writer

he fall season has come to a close for Desert Edge High School badminton. The team finished the season with a record of 7-7, ranked No. 20. However, it wasn’t practice that got them their wins throughout the season. The Scorpions got through their season together, through therapy. Desert Edge is a relatively young team, with this year’s season being just their fourth year as an official program. Nonetheless, head coach Stephen Kraynick was still setting goals for the team and anticipating a strong season for the Scorpions. “We’re really good, actually. I have had very high expectations this year,” Kraynick said. “Our goal was to try to make the top 20 in the state, because we are only year four. We are still a fairly young team. Some of these kids have been with me for two or three years now, so I have a nice core group of people. I really think we can make our goal overall this year.” And they did. The Scorpions were cutting it close, but they were able to achieve their goal. In their singles and doubles matches, the Desert Edge badminton team fought their way through the season and made it to the top 20. However, it was not just their skills as athletes that helped the Scorpions reach their goal. In singles, the athletic skills of a player plays a strong role in winning a match. “In singles, you have much more court available to you and so you have to come up with a different game plan. It’s more athletic and it’s more of a grinding type, but those who have a stronger mental view usually will do much better,” Kraynick said. In doubles, finding the right partner plays an even bigger role.

“Doubles is completely different. You have a partner, less court, less space, but not always. So, with that, you have to plan your team’s strengths and weaknesses and have them compliment each other, whereas in singles it’s just you. You try to find a nice balance so it is almost like you have a complete player out there,” he added. However, if you were to ask the Scorpions what the most important skill to have during a match is, they would say you would need to have the mental skill. Most of the girls on the Desert Edge badminton have been playing singles and doubles for their high school for two or three years. Having both the athletic skills and the mental skills to switch their mindset and gameplay back and forth for every match. However, that is not the part of the game that sticks out in their minds. The Scorpions say that the mental aspect of it all is what they love most about the sport of badminton. “When I’m feeling relaxed that’s when I enjoy it the most. I know I can put in my best effort. Just knowing that when the birdie comes, it’s my time to shine and I’m ready to hit it,” senior Melissa Leor said. “It’s therapeutic, honestly. Our coach literally calls practice therapy. It’s a great stress reliever,” senior Anyanka Carlson said. “I like how it can release stress, and I believe that is my biggest strength too,” junior Kaylyn Huynh added. Being able to keep it fun, stay connected with your doubles partner, use each practice and game therapeutically, and stay relaxed while also letting out some steam are the skills. These are the aspects of the game that the team loves the most and believes matter the most. “We don’t call our practices ‘practices.’ We call them ‘therapy sessions,’” Kraynick said.

Desert Edge’s badminton program, which finished as the No. 20 team in Division II, used the game as a therapy session for players to bond and overcome other challenges they face in life. (Photo by Karli Karanges)

Agua Fria alumni raising EMCC’s Veterans Day ceremony returns to campus money for museum WEST VALLEY VIEW NEWS | NOVEMBER 3, 2021

BY WEST VALLEY VIEW STAFF

he Litchfield Park Historical Society and Museum will host the benefit concert “A Musical Homecoming” with six talented alumni from Agua Fria High School at 7 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 27, in its auditorium. “Whether you are an alum or not, this is going to be a fantastic concert,” said Judy Fulton, Litchfield Park Historical Society board member and event chair. “We are so excited to welcome home these amazing Agua Fria graduates to showcase their talent together, especially since this year marks Agua Fria High School’s 65th anniversary.” The performers include Matt Cartsonis, who plays mandolin, banjo and guitar.

strella Mountain Community College is gearing up for its eighth Veterans Day Ceremony and Fun Run, which will be held in person this year on Thursday, Nov. 11, at the Estrella North Plaza on campus, 3000 N.

SUDOKU TIME

The idea of Go Figure is to arrive at the figures given at the bottom and right-hand columns of the diagram by following the arithmetic signs in the order they are given (that is, from left to right and top to bottom). Use only the numbers below the diagram to complete its blank squares and use each of the nine numbers only once.

EVEN EXCHANGE

by Donna Pettman

Place a number in the empty boxes in such a way that each row across, each column down and each small 9-box square contains all of the numbers from one to nine.

DIFFICULTY THIS WEEK H H

H Moderate HH Challenging HHH HOO BOY!

Each numbered row contains two clues and two answers. The two answers differ from each other by only one letter, which has already been inserted. For example, if you exchange the A from MASTER for an I, you get MISTER. Do not change the order of the letters.

SCRAMBLERS Unscramble the letters within each rectangle to form four ordinary words.

Then rearrange the boxed letters to form the mystery word, which will complete the gag!

Barbara Potter Arnold

Barbara Potter Arnold, 92, of Goodyear, Arizona died October 19, 2021 in Goodyear, Arizona. She was born April 25, 1929 to William and Rowena Buck-Friis. Barbara arrived just prior to the 1929 stock market crash and the following Great Depression. Despite the hardships of that time, she had a very happy childhood. She met the love of her life, Jerome W. Potter, at Fresno State. He was completing his degree after serving as a WWII pilot in Europe. They married three months later, and raised four wonderful children. Sadly, Jerome died in 1984, but Barbara followed her dreams of traveling to far away places, with Africa being first on her list. It was on the tennis courts in Lafayette, California that she met Stewart Arnold. They fell in love and married in 1991. Barbara and Stewart retired to Goodyear, Arizona and joined the Active Adult community of Pebble Creek where she continued her athletic lifestyle of tennis, golf, and Bocce Ball. Just like when she was raising her four children, her home was always open. She was an amazing cook and hostess for marathon card games for the ladies, which often ended in the wee hours with Biscuits and Gravy. Barbara had a servant's heart, often sowing her love through acts of kindness to everyone she met. She was a loving wife, mother, and beloved "Mere" to her grandchildren. She's completed her journey here on earth, and "Oh Boy" what a life she had. Barbara is survived by her daughter Susan (Jim – deceased) Tearpak; sons, Thomas (Julie) Potter, Rob (Carole) Potter, and Rich Potter. She also leaves behind eight grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren and a host of nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her first husband Jerome W. Potter, Stewart Arnold, daughter-in-law Brenda Potter, son-in-law Jim Tearpak, and granddaughter April Potter. The family suggest that donations be made to the Alzheimer's charity of your choice. Funeral arrangements are private at this time. To leave the family condolences, please visit www.thompsonfuneralchapel.com/ obituary/Barbara-Arnold
