How Anza stays fit
By Allison Renck It’s been scientifically proven that exercise has many benefits. People that exercise appear to have fewer health problems, report feeling better, and overall have a better quality of life. Studies show that exercise lessens depression symptoms, reduces anxiety and decreases stress. For those looking to reap the positive benefits of exercise, Anza offers many opportunities to stay fit and feel good while doing it.
Mormon Church Exercise Classes One of those opportunities is the fitness class offered at the Mormon Church at 8:00 a.m. on Mondays and Wednesdays and 5:30 p.m. on Thursdays. This class is free to the public due to the generosity of the church and exercise facilitator Eve Cannella. Eve has facilitated this class in different locations around Anza for three years. She began teaching the class at Anza Mormon Church in January.
Eve said that she enjoys bringing people together to get fit and that this class “keeps her active.” The class began with low impact stretches and then increased the rate to include an aerobic workout. Hula Hoops were included to help work the midsection and increase coordination. All participants appeared to be enjoying the workout and the music was upbeat. This class is open to all women of any fitness level, Eve advises everyone to go at their own pace.
Take a Walk! Due to the nice weather that often occurs in Anza, many people in the community stay fit by walking. Walking is good exercise; it gets people out into the natural world. Archives of Internal Medicine reported that 30 minutes of walking a day will lengthen a person’s life by 1.3 years. It is estimated that 110 million Americans walk for exercise across all age levels. Scott Sandersfeld is one of those

Gallucci said today before the Senate Veterans Affairs Committee, regarding accusations that possibly 40 veterans may have died waiting for care at the Phoenix VA Medical Center. “We do not know who the veterans are who may have died waiting for care,” said Gallucci, an Iraq War veteran and deputy director of VFW’s National Veterans Service directorate. “We do not know if other hospitals are cooking their appointment scheduling books just

Breeding facility operator who abused animals sentenced First contact from Anza Morocco
By Jodi Thomas Earlier this month an interesting email came to the Anza Valley Outlook from a gentleman living half a world away in Morocco. He was excited to learn that California has a community called Anza because the community he lives in in Morocco is also called Anza. His name is Lahcen Aoubahane, and he said he is looking for individuals in the Anza community in California to contact him if they

would like to share stories about their life here in the states. Some information on Morocco and the area Lahcen Aoubahane lives: Morocco is found on the top part of Africa right below Spain. The country is bordered by the waters of Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean and by the county of Algeria. Morocco is an ethnically diverse country with a rich culture and civilization. The different civilizations in
the region’s history have impacted Moroccan social structures bringing diversity in Morocco’s different regions. Throughout Morocco’s history, it has hosted many people coming from all different areas of the world. It has hosted the Phoenicians, Carthaginians, Jews and Arabs from the east; it has hosted Sub-Saharan Africans from the south; and it has hosted the Romans, Vandals, Andalusian and the Moors from the north.
All these civilizations impacted the social structure of today’s Morocco. Morocco values and seeks to protect these differences and diversity.
