Anthem council meets tonight STAFF REPORT
The Anthem Community Council will meet at 6:30 p.m., tonight at the Anthem Community Center for the board’s monthly meeting. Amongst the items to be discussed is a recommendation by the Fiscal and Resource Management Committee to move $500,000 from the operating fund to the reserve fund.
Additionally the Community Planning and Development Committee will give a report about their July 3 meeting. During the meeting a group called Anthem Loves Dogs addressed the committee about their desire for a dog park to be created in Anthem. Currently the closest dog park is Jackass Acres located on the frontage road between Anthem and New River.
The Planning Committee also is weighing the needs for other amenities such as additional sports fields, a competition pool, improvements to the amphitheater, as well as other requested recreational facilities. The complete meeting agenda can be found at onlineatanthem. com/sites/default/files/072512council-agenda.pdf
Boulder Creek grad competes in British Open STAFF REPORT

FACEBOOK.COM/TheFOOTHILLS.FOCUS
Scott Pinckney, a 2007 Boulder Creek graduate, represented Anthem during the British Open on Thursday and Friday at Royal Lytham St. Anne in England. Pinckney, who eventually missed the cut by two shots,
ended the first round of the Major just four shots off the lead and alone in 14th place. On the 7,086 - yard par – 70 layout Pinckney shot a 2-underpar 68 on Thursday highlighted by six birdies along with two bogeys and one double bogey. Round two would be his undoing though as Pinckney
shot a triple bogey, five bogeys and one birdie. The Arizona State graduate was the state runner-up both his junior and senior seasons at Boulder Creek. He also helped the Jaguars team to the state tournament during the 2006 season.
director continued from page 3 school level, Hreha said he has a lot of things he wants to do. Though Anthem is attached to the Valley he said he sees some parallels of being around the Jaguars program and what it was like in Kingman. “I already sense the tightknit community feel,” he said. “I want to get out and talk to as many people as possible and use the resources in the local community. I’ll ask them what they perceive is working and what isn’t working when it comes to the relationship between the high school’s athletic programs and the business community. I want
to take advantage of what is working and change the things that aren’t.” When it comes to success for the athletic department and his coaches Hreha said there’s one simple key. “I’ll try and get across the importance of communicating, whether it’s with the parents, the student-athletes, with the community and with me,” he said. Hreha said he feels strongly about the role of high school coaches. “Well, they wouldn’t keep track of wins and losses if people didn’t think that was important,
but good coaches help foster good young men and women,” he said. “ For some students there are athletic opportunites beyond high school, but for most teens it’s an avenue to have some fun, but also learn some life lessons that will help them in college or in whatever they pursue. I’m excited to get started, to work with the coaches, the students and to meet as many people in the community as I possibly can.”
