San Manuel Miner 2/16/11

Three poachers fined more than $23,000; hunting licenses revoked for a total of 25 years MAMMOTH, Ariz. – Three Mammoth residents face a total of more than $23,000 in fines and restitution, and 25 years of hunting license revocations, for four poaching incidents in 2009 in which seven deer were unlawfully killed.

The “Operation Mammoth Bones” case, concluded

Friday by Arizona Game & Fish Commission action, resulted in hunting license revocations of ten years each for Dominic Rodriguez and Kyle Roan of Mammoth.

The commission ordered Rodriguez to pay $4,500 in restitution and Roan to pay $3,000 in restitution. The civil assessments were in

San Manuel

addition to $7,633 criminal fine against Roan and a $6,177 criminal fine for Rodriguez.

The commission also revoked the hunting license of Logan Formo of Mammoth for five years. He was also ordered to pay $1,500 in restitution and criminally fined $537.

“Poaching is not hunting.

It’s a crime against nature and

the citizens of Arizona,” said Regional Supervisor Raul Vega of the Arizona Game and Fish Department (AGFD) in Tucson. The investigation began in May 2009 with the discovery of two mule deer carcasses in the Tucson Wash area west of Mammoth.

“This was a tremendous team effort, and as a result

we were able to put together a good case against the three individuals involved,” said AGFD Wildlife Manager Ben Brochu, the lead investigator.

“We are especially grateful to the public for providing information that helped us solve these crimes, and to the Pinal County Attorney’s Office for prosecuting them.”

Information provided by the public to the AGFD Operation Game Thief Hotline (OGT) at 1-800-352-0700 led to a break in the case. OGT is available 24-hours a day, seven days a week. Information may be provided anonymously if needed, and online at http:// www.azgfd.gov/ogt_form. shtml.

Write On! now an elective for Mountain Vista students

By John Hernandez Mountain Vista students have a new elective class which allows them to be patriotic and creative.

The students make cards and write to our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan.

The class started out as an after school activity in November 2007. It was the idea of Bonnielee Walsh.

Bonnielee came up with the idea after writing her son who was stationed in Iraq during

Operation Iraqi Freedom. She would write letters and send packages of goodies which he shared with his friends. Her son wrote her a letter telling her about a soldier who had been in Iraq for 8 ½ months and had not received a letter from anyone. She then found out the information she needed to get the program started and the Write On! program was born.

Writing letters to our soldiers overseas is nothing new for

Above are some creative samples produced by the Mountain Vista Write On! class. (John Hernandez photo)

Bonnielee. While in high school, she wrote to soldiers fighting the war in Vietnam.

She had heard they were lonely and wrote letters to cheer them up. During the first Iraq War she wrote a Marine regularly.

After a year of writing each other, he asked if he could meet her. They have now been married for 20 years. Being married to a Sergeant Major in the Marines (retired) and having two sons in the service, she knows the hardships and loneliness they feel so far away from home.

“Whether you are for or against the war, you should care about the troops,” she said. “They should not be forgotten.”

Bonnielee said, “The kids in the class really want to write the troops.”

The students enjoy the class and are very creative and artistic when making the cards. Many of the soldiers write them back and some have sent gifts to the class in appreciation for them caring about the troops. One former Army recruiter who had been deployed sent everyone in the class a handmade bracelet made by Afghani women.

Another “pen pal” who was

By Jennifer R. Carnes My mom makes the best peanut brittle candy.

Period.

Well, she wouldn’t tell you that herself, but I have no problem unequivocally stating that.

I remember that she always made peanut brittle around the Christmas holidays.

She’d break it all up and put it in special holiday tins. We’d leave a tin in the mailbox for the mailman. All our relatives would get a tin along with their Christmas presents.

The absolutely best part, though, was all the pieces that she deemed too small to give away – those were ours to eat.

Watching her make the candy was really special too.

I always thought my mom was something of a magician. She always knew exactly when to put in the next ingredient. To the young child I was, it was magic when the clear, hot, bubbling confection turned that beautiful opaque caramel color signifying it was ready to cool.

It’s memories like these that the Oracle Historical Society needs. They also need kids

to be announced for kids to try out some of the recipes gathered.

The workshop series is being held in conjunction with the Smithsonian Exhibit, “Key Ingredients: America by Food,” which will be visiting the Tri-Community at the Oracle Historical Society’s Acadia Ranch Museum March 19 through May 1.

The wall hangings created by the workshop attendees will be displayed at the Museum during the opening reception March 19 from 1-5 p.m. They will be on display again April 9 and 10 during the Oracle Artists Studio Tour at the RLV OracleArt Barn.

Although not many participated in the first workshop, the class is still open to local youth. Kids ages 5 to 18 are welcome to participate as are their parents. A small materials fee of $5 is requested to help pay for the special photo fabric. The materials fee as well as a handwritten recipe and the family photo should be submitted as soon as possible to Maggie Miller; these can be left at the Oracle

Bonnielee Walsh and the Write On! class work on letters for servicemen and women. (John Hernandez photo) a pilot stationed in Egypt sent the class pencils and tablets that were decorated with Egyptian hieroglyphics.

Bonnielee lets the students be creative but insists that if they use an American flag drawing or art work that it be red, white and blue. If they use a ribbon it must be yellow as the reminder

to remember the troops.

Bonnielee buys some of the class supplies and they also get donations. They recycle old calendars and greeting cards as well as any card stock that has art work on it.

If you would like to help the Write On! Program, they are looking for donations of

construction paper, colored markers, glue, sticker art, rubber stamps, colored ink, used calendars or greeting cards, and ribbons. You can drop off the supplies at the Mountain Vista School office; let them know it is for the Write On program or for Bonnielee.

Kids, family recipes, special photos sought for workshop in Oracle who are willing to share their memories of family and food.

Last week, the Oracle Historical Society, along with RLV OracleArt and 4-H, hosted the first in a series of workshops for children, “Food is Art.” Organizers talked about the planned project. Kids participating will take an old family recipe (Nana’s enchiladas, Tio’s famous salsa or, in my daughter’s case, my mom’s peanut brittle) and a photo of the person who made the food. The recipe and the photo will be transferred to special photo fabric and then kids will create a special quilted wall hanging. (The photo and recipe will be returned when the project is complete.)

Local quilters Gloria Mork and Janet Walker will work with the young quilters. Artist Selina Littler and art educator Maggie Rush Miller will add their expertise as well.

Three more sessions are planned: March 4 at 10 a.m. and March 5 at 11 a.m. at the RLV OracleArt Barn for the quilting sessions. A third workshop will be held in April with the date and time

The first workshop held in the ‘Food is Art’ series kept these young ladies’ attention last week. The girls invite others to join them for the next three workshops. (Jennifer Carnes photo) Fire Station or at the Sierra Oaks School office. For more information or to make other arrangements, please contact Miller at 520-603-9077.

“Food is Art” is funded by a grant from the Arizona Commission on the Arts.

“Key Ingredients” is sponsored by the Arizona Humanities Council. To learn more, go online to www. oraclhistoricalsociety.org.

And if you want to find out what’s in my mom’s peanut brittle candy recipe, I guess

you’ll just have to attend the opening reception of the “Key Ingredients” exhibit and see it on my daughter Lauren’s wall hanging. (You might also check online at www. copperarea.com – I might just share it there.)

Economic development in the Copper Corridor

A self-sufficient Superior — A future the Chamber of Commerce strives to support

By Lana Jones The all-volunteer run Superior Chamber of Commerce works hundreds of hours each year to support businesses, non-profits, and the overall advancement of Superior.

They host five major yearly events, such as the recent Third Annual Home and Building Tour. They also contribute to and spearhead many other events around the town.

Why do the four officers, six board members, and close to 50 volunteers devote their time to these events and other chamber projects?

Pete Casillas, Chamber president, said it wasn’t for monetary or political gain.

“The gain is literally seeing our hometown succeed,” he said.

The yearly events help Superior succeed by drawing

attention to the community and bringing in significant sales for local businesses.

The events also support local non-profit groups and help supplement the Chamber’s operations budget.

The Chamber has been around for more than 25 years but has really stepped up their efforts in the past few years to support economic development and the quality of life in Superior.

Those two pieces—economic development and quality of life—go hand in hand, and that’s why the Chamber supports businesses and economic development.

That guiding principle is evident in their slogan.

“Support your local businesses!

When they succeed, our community succeeds!”

Casillas explained further:

“It’s important to find ways to be self-sufficient, self-reliant.

We’re built on a mining community but it doesn’t mean we need to depend on a mine to exist. Part of the Chamber’s goal is to be viable with or without a mine.”

To further that goal, the Chamber pursued and received their 501(c)(6) status last year and have multiple projects in the works.

The Chamber will operate the Caboose Visitor Center for the town. The Caboose’s grand opening is scheduled in March.

Mila Lira, Chamber board member, said that moving into the Caboose and making it a focal point was one of the most immediate projects the Chamber was working on.

Tribute Ralph R. Guadiana June 11, 1932- February 11, 2011

Ralph R. Guadiana, 78, passed away at his home in San Manuel on Feb. 11, 2011.

Ralph was born June 11, 1932 in Miami, during the Great Depression, and, started working at the age of six, selling newspapers, running errands, and, shining shoes. He continued working, throughout his childhood, so he could assist his family. He graduated from Miami High School, where he was an outstanding athlete.

After graduation, he enlisted in the U.S. Navy, serving in the Korean War, aboard the U.S.S. Colahan, as a Third Class Petty Officer-Torpedo-Man. During one mission, he saved his ship, and shipmates, by throwing a torpedo overboard, seconds before it exploded.

Ralph married his high school sweetheart, Lorenzo (Lencha) Madrid, while in the Navy.

After serving his country honorably, Ralph and Lencha moved to San Manuel, when the town was created. He was employed at Magma Copper Company for 30 years, as a Heavy Equipment Operator.

He, then, worked for Pinal County for 11 years. They raised their four children, Patsy, Ralph Jr., Kenny and Teresa in San Manuel, where Ralph and Lencha were active members of the community.

They were, also, active in their church, St. Bartholomew’s Roman Catholic Parish, Ralph worked for many years with Youth Ministry and the Cursillo movement, where he touched many lives by

Ralph R. Guadiana sharing his love of God, and, encouraging others to follow Christ.

After a long, hard, battle with cancer, Ralph was called to Heaven to be with the Lord.

He was at home, surrounded by his family and friends, who sent him off with prayers and love.

He is preceded in death by his parents, Eusebio and Agripina Guadiana; brother, Robert Guadiana, and, grandson, Christopher Garcia.

He is survived by his wife, Lencha; children, Patsy, Ralph Jr., Kenny and Teresa; nine grandchildren; 20 greatgrandchildren; brother, Mike and sister, Virginia; along with numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.

His smile, laugh, funny stories, sound advice and generous soul will be missed by all who loved him. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to St. Bartholomew’s Catholic Parish.

Services for Mr. Guadiana will be held on Saturday, Feb. 19, with Viewing at 9 a.m., Rosary at 10 a.m., and the Mass of Christian Burial at 11 a.m., at St. Bartholomew’s Catholic Church. Interment will follow at Valley View Cemetery in Mammoth.

Letter to the Editor:

Pinnacle pulls Verizon cell tower application from Supervisors’ agenda Editor, San Manuel Miner: Several interesting developments occurred last week regarding the proposal

by Verizon Wireless, and Oracle property owner Adrian Darimont, to erect a cell tower in the center of the town of Oracle. On Tuesday, February 8, the deadline for submittals to the Pinal County Planning and Development Dept. for inclusion in the packets for the upcoming Board of Supervisors’ meeting in Florence, we were notified that Pinnacle Consulting, Inc., the agent for the applicants, had requested the application for the tower be pulled from consideration.

This does not mean this application is off the table, since after attending a Concept Review meeting with the P and D Dept. staff, the application may be resubmitted again in the future.

However, District One Pinal County Supervisor Pete Rios has stepped in to attempt to seek some kind of compromise with Verizon Wireless, to try and find a reasonable solution to this controversy. Our opposition group has maintained steadfastly during this 14plus month ordeal, that we welcome improvement to Verizon Wireless’ cell service in Oracle - it is just that the location of the currently proposed tower is totally in the wrong location!

As if to emphasize the totally negative aspects of the proposed Darimont property tower location even further, Oracle Fire Department Battalion Chief

Larry Southard received on the same day a “ TIER TWO - Emergency and Hazardous Chemical Inventory” report from AT & T Mobility, which operates the cell tower constructed several years ago along the Highway 77 corridor, just a mile west of Oracle. This report is required by the EPA annually, and must be sent to fire departments that furnish protection to locations where hazardous material are being routinely stored. We were all astounded to learn that 606 pounds of sulphuric acid were normally stored onsite in the building below the AT&T tower.

This really nasty and extremely hazardous material is a normal component in lead-acid batteries, which make up part of the back-up emergency power system necessary for each cell tower installation.

While such hazardous materials are routinely required to have a spill containment system installed to safeguard public health and safety, the Darimont tower site is atop a 78 foothigh hill. Three permanent residences are located atop this hill, and another dozen or so are located just east and below the hill crest.

Should, for whatever reason, an industrial accident occur, and the containment system is breached, the health and safety of the families who live on a level with, or just below the tower elevation, would be in grave danger if acid spillage occurs. What were the tower permit applicants thinking??!! I am

afraid the answer is NOT! The obvious answer to all the negatives surrounding the Darimont tower location is for Oracle residents to work on a community-wide basis with both Pinnacle Consulting, Inc., and Verizon Wireless, to seek alternate sites for the much-needed tower. If this is done with real public involvement, there is no reason this could not be a win-win situation for Oracle residents, our fire department, and Verizon Wireless. To that end, our group that has been active in opposing the Darimont tower site will be similarly active in taking steps to accomplish this goal in coming weeks.

Since Adrian Darimont has proclaimed publicly that the $800.00 monthly fee for leasing his land to Verizon Wireless for this tower is of no financial consequence to him, and that his real goal was to improve Verizon Wireless cell service for his business ventures, his fellow Oracle residents, and the Oracle Fire Department, perhaps he will re-consider his position, and join our efforts.

Any question, please call 896-2832.

Thank you, /s/ Ross Hopkins

Joe Gibson Foundation provides first responders; some equipment to head to Copper Corridor On Monday, Jan. 17, the “Joe Gibson Foundation” generously donated 20 “First Responder Trauma Bags” and 12 “Automated External Defibrillator’s” (AED) to the Pinal County Sheriff’s Office.

The medical equipment will be used by our first responders in many of the remote areas of Pinal County. During medical emergencies seconds count; deputies can now provide lifesaving treatment until Emergency Medical Personnel (EMS) can respond.

Region B which includes most of the Copper Corridor will receive four First Responder Bags and one AED to use in emergency situations.

Sheriff Paul Babeu said, “All of my deputies have received Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) and First Aide training during the past two years. Since law enforcement is often first on scene, it is critical they be equipped with life-saving equipment and training to bridge the time gap between the time of a medical emergency and the arrival of EMS. The medical equipment donated by this foundation will give our deputies the tools they need to help continue the legacy of Dr. Gibson, by saving lives.”

FLORENCE – By order of state statutes, Pinal County voters will be electing a five member Board of Supervisors in 2012, based on population data gathered in the 2010 census.

As a result of the move to five districts, now is the time to figure out where the voting lines will go – a task that can last anywhere from six months or longer to get finalized. Pinal County Elections Director Steve Kizer is still waiting on the official numbers from the state.

“Estimates peg our current population at around 350,000,” Kizer said. “That will mean we will have five supervisor districts, each with about 70,000 people.”

Kizer pointed out that the lines are not drawn in a vacuum, but are carefully thought out to meet stringent requirements set by the U.S. Department of Justice. The Voting Rights Act and legal challenges through the years have resulted from redistricting efforts that did not take into account the careful consideration of certain protected classes.

Retrogression, or a diminishing of the ability of protected classes to be able to elect the candidate of their choice, is of particular concern in a diverse population such as Arizona’s.

“We must make sure that there is no retrogression for protected classes when we create the new voting districts,” Kizer stated.

He also said that other factors are looked at such as population demographics, communities of interest, contiguity and physical barriers.

With a major presidential election next year, the time for coming up with voting districts is an urgent matter for many states and counties throughout the nation.

“After the 2000 Census we had some time to develop lines and get the clearance from the Department of Justice,” Kizer

said. “Now with the election only a year away, the timeline for getting everything done is compressed.”

The Elections Department hopes to get the final numbers on Pinal County’s population from the state in February or March. Between April and June, Elections will work closely with the county’s mapping staff to begin the See Elections, Page 5

Petition campaign to end March 1

By Marci Heath Chairman, Committee to Divide Pinal County The petition campaign, currently underway in eight communities in southeast Pinal County, requesting the Federal Communications Commission to allow the residents of the area to receive Tucson TV channels from their satellite providers will end March 1.

At present, DISH Network and Direct TV are bound by their licensing rules to provide only Phoenix channels as “local” stations for all of Pinal County. The petition drive is aimed at changing that provision.

Locations where these petitions are available are: Mammoth ∙ La Casita Restaurant San Manuel

∙ DeMarco’s Restaurant ∙ Bea’s Bar ∙ Salt & Pepper Service Station ∙ Gordon’s Market on Thursday and Saturday, 10 a.m. - 2 p.m.

Oracle ∙ DeMarco’s Restaurant ∙ Dr. Huntington’s office ∙ Oracle Hardware ∙ Winding Roses ∙ Dub’s Plumbing SaddleBrooke Ranch ∙ Walter Morey, 360-9015745 ∙ George Kramer, 520-3856677 Marana ∙ A.R. Bergensen at arbergensen@yahoo.com.

Oracle Junction, Saddlebrooke and Eagle Crest residents need to contact Marci Heath at 520-385-9330 for locations of petitions.

Elections

to present various proposals for comment. The Elections Department will then present that information to the Supervisors.

“If everything goes right, we could be submitting the lines to the Department of Justice in September,” Kizer said. “We would hopefully hear back from them at the beginning of 2012.”

For now, it’s a matter of getting prepared for what is sure to be a buzz of activity when the official numbers arrive from the state.

“We have a good handle on what we need to do,” Kizer stated. “Our staff is dedicated and ready to go to make sure the lines are drawn in accordance with the law.”

Continued from Page 4 process of drawing the lines.

Kizer said he hopes to have the lines tentatively done between June and August.

“From June to August, we will also be waiting for the Arizona Redistricting Commission to finalize its plan,” Kizer said.

“Once the commission’s plan is finalized, we might have to make some minor changes to our lines to make sure that no voting precincts are part of two legislative or congressional districts.”

At the direction of the Board of Supervisors, Kizer and his staff will be holding public meetings in major areas throughout the county

DePuy Orthopaedics, a division of Johnson & Johnson, has issued a worldwide recall of it’s ASRTM Acetabular System for Total Hip Replacement, after determining that these hip implants may fail at an alarming rate. The “metal-on-metal” composition of these implants can release particles into the patient, potentially causing serious and painful reactions — sometimes requiring complete revision surgery.

Reportedly, Johnson & Johnson has been seeking medical releases from recipients so that their claims adjustors can speak with you directly and possibly take down statements without your having counsel present – an unwise action for any recipient to do.

was particularly proud of the volunteers.

“I’m really humbled by the number of volunteers we have,” he said. “We started three years ago with a handful.

We have close to 50 now.”

“I have to agree,” Lira said.

“The biggest thing is our volunteerism.”

She talked about how important the volunteers that manage the office were.

“You have to have that door open. You have to have someone to answer that phone, answer the email.

That’s something to be proud of,” she said. “We’ve kept it going.

We’ve grown and improved the Chamber.”

There’s still more work to be done though, both for the Chamber and the town.

“We need an operating budget so we can afford some staff, so we can have a full time office and have that permanent home because we play a role in the overall success of the community,” Lira said.

She said that the blighted buildings and getting the community to buy-in to local businesses were some of the biggest challenges facing the town.

First Avenue School hosts Family Activity Night First Avenue Elementary School was the scene of Family Activity Night last Tuesday evening. Students and their families enjoyed activities centered around science and reading.

School Principal Monica Barajas emphasized the night’s theme of “Let’s Clown Around.” Mr. Parrish’s classroom hosted an activity about sound amplification. Families learned interesting facts about the human body in Mrs. Aguirre’s class while Mrs. Reidhead’s classroom learned about the science of thumb prints. A book fair was held in the library and snacks were served in the cafeteria.

It was a fun evening for the students, families and teachers. (John Hernandez photos)

AND GET 100.

Open any new checking account.* Here’s the nitty-gritty: First, you’ll need to make an initial deposit of at least $100 – these can’t be funds from an existing Bank of the West account though. We also ask that you setup a recurring monthly deposit of at least $250, something like your paycheck.

Your account must be in good standing, so stop by a branch to learn more about that. Offer subject to change without prior notice, and some additional conditions and restrictions apply. It’s checking that pays you $100, and it’s another reason to go west. bankofthewest.com ©2011 Bank of the West. Member FDIC.
