Business Briefcase
ByConnorDziawura
IN THE BIZ
Hello, everyone, and welcome to another week of Business Briefcase. Summer is approaching its end and fall is nearly upon us, so plenty of announcements are coming your way in the business world. Whether it is a new business or important city plans, or from Halloween events to business seminars, it is likely business owners and West Valley residents can find something worthwhile approaching in the coming months. Marketplace Collaborative, a new indoor farmers market, celebrated its grand opening on August 26. The market, located at 13735 W. Auto Drive, Suite 112, Goodyear, is open from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturdays. The indoor venue provides a great way for Valley residents to support their local businesses and stay out of the sun. For more information, or to become a vendor, visit marketplacecollaborative. com/market. Buckeye’s Economic Development Department is looking for residents to participate in a survey. The questionnaire, which can be found at BuckeyeAZ.gov, will allow participants to voice their opinions on the city’s needs for future businesses and services. Participants can also enter a drawing, where three winners will be awarded a $50 gift certificate to a Buckeye retailer. The city of Goodyear released its
Dollars & SENSE Fiscal Management and Priorities 2017-2018 pamphlet. Noting its recognition by the U.S. Census Bureau as the 14th fastest-growing city in the country, Goodyear shows it is facing moderate overall revenue growth and has accomplished many feats in the past fiscal year. One new goal for 2017-18 is to implement a new financial system. This will provide more online access for services for residents, as well as more transparency. The city also wants to create incentives to attract more businesses to the area. The Cleveland Indians are planning an expansion of the Goodyear Ballpark, the cost of which will not affect the city. Changes to Goodyear Branch Library hours, InFocus magazine scheduling and city recreation are just some of the other planned changes in the upcoming year. The full issue can be found at GoodyearAZ.gov. AT&T recently upgraded 12 cell towers in the Southwest Valley as part of its continued effort to improve service for customers. The newly upgraded 4G LTE towers span Goodyear, Buckeye, Avondale, Tolleson and Litchfield Park. This upgrade aims to give customers faster speeds for many uses, including social media and network connectivity. This follows $425 million in investments by AT&T in Phoenix networks between 2014 and 2016. Haymaker Restaurant, a popular West Valley establishment located at 1800 N.

Dentist Forrest Noelck follows in father’s footsteps ByChristinaFuoco-Karasinski When Forrest Noelck was a child, he visited his father at his dental office. “Take Your Child to Work Day” was so important to Alan Noelck that he would have a catered lunch and interesting cases. “I thought that was how it was every day in the office,” Noelck said with a laugh. “That was the only exposure I had to it for a while. I would pop in for those and go as a patient, of course. I never thought about being a dentist.” That changed his sophomore year at ASU when he went on a hike with his dad. “I asked him one time, ‘What do you like about being a dentist?’” said the 27-year-old alumnus of Westview High School in Avondale. “He talked to me for a little bit, and what his day-to-day was like. I asked him about how he keeps up with changing trends in dentistry.” Noelck was convinced that he had to follow in his father’s footsteps. After schooling and a handful of residencies, he joined his dad’s practice on July 31. “It’s been a long time coming, but something I never thought would happen,” he said. The journey to his father’s dental practice is an interesting one. He moved to Colorado for dental school, based on his love of hiking and skiing. While there, he worked for a variety of community clinics before heading to Portland, Oregon, for a general practice residency at the VA. “With that, I got a lot of experience across all aspects of dentistry,” Noelck

said. Working at the community clinics and the VA gave him the experience and confidence he needed to join his father’s practice. He admitted that he felt uncomfortable going straight from dental school to the Litchfield Park practice. Noelck likes the importance that his father and his staff place on patients. They take the time to get to know clients and what they want. “They aren’t trying to push through as many patients as they can,” he said. “Their big focus is on the patient.” The staff works well with Forrest Noelck worked in Guatemala on children who patients who are afraid of den- had never seen a dentist.

Avondale venue hosts Ben’s Bells fundraiser ByChristinaFuoco-Karasinski When Kelly Meadows moved to the West Valley and laid eyes on Western Avenue in Historic Avondale, she fell in love. “It’s so different and such a unique place,” she said. “I always kept my eye on it.” She thought about rehabbing a building and leasing it, but she took a chance in October 2016 and opened BOONgarden, a community art, garden and coffee space. “I had just received my master gardener certification and I was into art,” Meadows said. “I wasn’t sure how I was going to support it, then I thought maybe coffee. I realized that craft coffee is a needed thing in the West Valley.” She and her staff learned everything they could about the different styles of coffee. Besides coffee, it is known for its hibiscus lemonade tea, created with the flowers from its garden. Now, BOONgarden is working to help others. From 6 to 8 p.m. Friday, September 15, it is hosting “Coffee and Kindness” benefit for Ben’s Bells, a nonprofit that creates and builds bells and leaves them to be found. The organization was founded to honor a young man who died and to inspire kindness. BOONgarden Guests are invited to paint Ben’s Bells beads and Kindness Coins while enjoying a coffee or meal.

Reservations are not required for the free “Coffee and Kindness” event. BOONgarden is giving 20 percent of all food and beverage sales to Ben’s Bells. “Halfway through the event, they will give a little speech about the benefits of kindness and doing random acts for kindness,” she said. “Ben’s Bells will then take the parts and assemble them back at their gallery.” Meadows is planning on hosting more benefits. “Hopefully in the future, we can take this idea and run with our own version of it; something for Avondale,” she said. “We’re thinking about painting
rocks with a special message and putting them in people’s yard. I haven’t quite decided yet.” As for BOONgarden, she’s letting her staff work their magic. “We’re looking into roasting our own beans,” she said. “It’s a lot of fun. It’s really kind of a blessing that all four of us are very dedicated and passionate. I give them free rein to explore the different things they want to pursue here.” BOONgarden 214 W.

Litchfield Park plans authentic Oktoberfest celebration ByCarsonMlnarik The city of Litchfield Park is keeping its Oktoberfest authentic by transforming The Wigwam into a mini Germany for a day. The event is set for September 16, which is the opening day of the official Munich celebration. “It’s a nice tie-in to the German cel-
ebration, of course, and a great way to kick off the season in Arizona,” said Tricia Kramer, Litchfield Park’s special events coordinator. The city’s event draws close to 900 attendees on the resort’s front lawn. The Wigwam has been home to the celebration for the past 13 years. “It’s a great community event,” Kramer said.
