6 to vie for 3 Chandler Council seats BY KEVIN REAGAN Staff Writer

Chandler voters will get to pick from six candidates to fill three city council seats in the Aug. 4 Primary Election. The six candidates who filed petitions by the April 6 deadline include Beth Brizel, Christine Ellis, OD Harris, Rick Heumann, and incumbents Jeremy McClymonds and and Mark Stewart. Stewart is seeking a second term on the council and McClymonds will be campaigning for the first time since he was appointed to fill an empty council seat in 2018. Heumann previously sat on the

council from 2008 to 2016 before he got termed out. He has since spent the last few years serving on the Chandler Planning and Zoning Commission and has headed the Chandler Chamber of Commerce Public Policy Committee. At least one new person will join the council this year because Councilman Sam Huang has chosen to run for congressional office rather than seek re-election to the council. Huang is in a three-way race for the Republican nomination in the 9th Congressional District with businessman Dave Giles and pharmacist Nicholas Tutora. They are vying for a chance to take on first-term Congressman and

former Phoenix Mayor Greg Stanton, who is facing a challenge in his party from activist Talia Fuentes-Wolfe. Brizel, Harris, and Ellis will all be running their first campaigns for a council seat. Brizel previously served a four-year term on the Kyrene School District Governing Board. It’s unclear how much the ongoing COVID-19 crisis will interfere with this year’s campaigns, but the pandemic was enough to convince one potential candidate not to turn in ballot petitions. Joseph Curbelo, a real estate broker, discontinued his campaign in order to dedicate more time to his career and family during this tumultuous pandem-

ic.

The remaining candidates are adapting to a new campaign reality that’s dictated by social distancing and no person-to-person contact. Ellis, whose background is in the medical field, said her campaign has begun focusing more on digital strategies as the pandemic continues to keep voters indoors. She said she has not shifted away from her focus on higher education and neighborhood resources due to the lingering health crisis but she has begun thinking about how Chandler is being See

Churches confronting virus-related challenges BY KEVIN REAGAN Staff Writer

Pastor Mike Japenga describes himself as a hugger. He likes being able to calmly reach out and comfort members of Chandler Presbyterian Church during moments of grief, sadness, and despair. But the COVID-19 pandemic has suddenly forced Japenga to keep a safe distance from his parishioners. Even

during a recent graveside funeral for one of his member’s fathers, Japenga had to remind himself not to make contact with the mourners. “It was so weird to see each other and just wave,” Japenga said, “that’s the way it has to be for right now.” The pastor finds himself facing the same challenge as all faith leaders across the country – maintaining a See

Business rent relief order fraught with uncertainty BY PAUL MARYNIAK Executive Editor And HOWARD FISCHER Capitol Media Services

Saying some landlords are weighing evictions, Gov. Doug Ducey last week ordered judges around the state to immediately suspend such legal actions against commercial tenants affected by

the pandemic. But a major Valley strip mall owner and others fear that may not offer much of a lifeline to many struggling small businesses. Chandler Chamber CEO/President Terri Kimble says that while Ducey’s order “is another tool in the toolbox” for businesses to use in their struggle to See

sense of community among parishioners, but from a distance. With Passover just celebrated last week and Easter being marked today, rabbis, ministers and priests confronted unprecedented challenges. Churches and synagogues in Chandler and throughout the East Valley had closed their doors because of social-distancing guidelines, morphing congregations into digital audiences. Sun Lakes Jewish Congregation Rabbi Irwin Wiener started sending weekly letters to his congregants while Japenga transitioned to taping his sermons every Sunday and posting the videos on his church’s website and social media channels. Videotaped services seem like an easy fix to working around the pandemic’s limitations, but Japenga said challenges, questions and conflicts arise every day because of COVID-19. His church can’t have its music team in the room while recording sermons, the pastor said, because it might put them over the government’s 10-person quota. The church has had to restrategize how it will keep helping homeless individuals, while keeping them and the church’s staff safe. One of the toughest decisions Japenga’s had to make thus far was to cancel Chandler Presbyterian’s Easter celebrations – some of the church’s most popular services of the year.

“It just breaks my heart that we’re not going to be able to be together physically as a church family,” Japenga said. “That’s just the way it is.” Before the crisis hit, Japenga was planning to have the theme of this year’s Lent focus on “change,” a word that’s taken on a new meaning for the pastor these last few weeks. People grow and change during times of extreme adversity, Japenga added, so this global pandemic will probably be a test to everyone’s character. Cornerstone Church, located on Alma School Road, is also grappling with the reality of not being able to host any Easter celebrations this year. The church will typically commemorate this week in April with well-attended activities that feature carnivals, games, and petting zoos. “All of that’s off the table right now because people can’t be present in person,” said Pastor Linn Winters. “That’s a radical shift.” Cornerstone will broadcast a Sunday service online, but no other festivities are currently planned. Since Easter traditionally brings more non-churchgoers out to the pews, pastors across the country are preparing for the lack of in-person services to impact their church’s finances. Nearly 80 percent of pastors surveyed across the United States have already reported a drop in their donations, according to data collected by the Barna Group. But 95 percent of the survey’s respondents are confident their churches will survive the pandemic

Winters said his church has noticed a 9-percent drop in contributions, which is enough to force some minor adjustments, yet not quite significant to trigger a catastrophic impact. COVID-19 has further pushed Cornerstone to completely re-evaluate how it serves the community, Winters said, and the church continues to approach new challenges on a daily basis. “We’re rewriting the book every single day,” the pastor said. In addition to live-streaming his sermons, Winters is filming a variety of supplemental content to keep church members engaged while they’re stuck at home. The pastor records 10-minute discussions that tackle specific questions related to self-isolation and staying safe during the pandemic. Cornerstone also is calling all 1,100 of its elderly members and asking them if they require any assistance buying groceries. A prayer chain Cornerstone recently started got 800 initial responses and the church is in the process of reaching out to each respondent. Rabbis also are facing the same challenges as they prepare for Passover this week. Rabbi Susan Schanerman, whose Congregation NefeshSoul meets at a Unitarian church in Chandler, held a virtual seder on YouTube, where she also is presenting Shabbat services. As with church leaders, she added, closures have put a financial strain on synagogues. “Rabbis, cantors and other syna-

gogue staff absolutely depend on the financial support of their congregations for their livelihoods,” she said. “We do not receive funds from an umbrella organization. If donations begin to decline, this will put a serious financial strain on synagogues and staff. “We hope that our members continue to support us, knowing that they are often struggling financially themselves,” she added. With donations plummeting, some pastors also have to worry about mortgages for churches or other buildings on larger campuses, and Bishop Deborah Hutterer, the spiritual leader of the Grand Canyon Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, which covers 89 congregations serving 44,000 members across Arizona, southern Nevada and St. George, Utah. Most couples put their wedding plans on hold, she said, and those that have been held were limited to 10 people. And she and Schanerman both reminded people that social distancing doesn’t mean that pastors and rabbis have put their sense of responsibility on a shelf. “We continue to provide services and classes through online platforms,” Schanerman said. “We continue to provide pastoral care and support from a distance or in person. Our work does not cease when our physical doors close.” As for reopening for services, Pastor Ryan Gear of Chandler’s The Well said his members will be following the guidance of medical professionals. “We are glad to worship online as long as needed to flatten the curve,” Gear said.

Chandler brewery making, donating hand sanitizer

BY LACEY LYONS Staff Writer

San Tan Brewery Company has found a way to give back to the community by turning their expired beer into medical grade hand sanitizer calling it “SanTanitizer.” “We want to make sure we take care of the people in our community that are helping to flatten the curve, save lives and get Arizona back to work,” said Anthony Canecchia, founder and brewmaster of Chandler brewery. Canecchia founded San Tan Brewery Company in 2007 and has built a strong reputation for Arizona’s favorite craft brewery. San Tan Spirits are distilled, aged and distributed locally to pubs in Chandler, Uptown Phoenix and to Sky Harbor International Airport. The company has been a partner with Crescent Crown Distributing for over 10 years and will recycle and distill over 16,000 gallons of expired draft beer to produce 400 gallons of hand sanitizer. SanTanitizer will be distilled from IPA style beer and have a tropical aroma. Crescent Crown is providing the “out of code” beer that it couldn’t distribute

to local pubs. The San Tan Brewery staff will then distill and “keg” batches of sanitizer to donate to the Chandler community with the first batch of 120 gallons going to HonorHealth, Canecchia said. “They are in the frontlines and we want to keep them supplied with

sanitizer and then be able to take care of the people in our community,” said Canecchia. San Tan Brewery also plans to donate some sanitizer to first responders in Chandler. “It is essential that as a community we act together, we work together and

we communicate,” said Canecchia. “ The community will also be able to purchase 4-ounce bottles of hand sanitizer for $5 with their takeout, curbside pickup or delivery meal from San Tan Brewery in the upcoming weeks, Canecchia said. “Anyone’s purchase of SanTanitizer online goes right to keeping our employees employed,” said Canecchia. “These people are our family and I want to keep them from becoming a part of the unemployment statistic.” San Tan Brewery is currently offering take out, curbside pick-up and delivery of their food and will update their website and social media platforms as soon as SanTanitizer is available for public purchase. “When ordering take out, I think people are trying to maintain normalcy to stay positive, and it makes me proud as an Arizonan to see how much the community is stepping up to flatten the curve,” said Canecchia. “The more people who support local, the more they are keeping the people who work and live in their community healthy, strong and working,” he added.

Chandler firm making sanitizer for the vulnerable BY KEVIN REAGAN Staff Writer

A Chandler cosmetic ingredient manufacturer is producing bottles of hand sanitizer for vulnerable populations at risk of contracting the COVID-19 virus. Floratech, which produces ingredients for hygiene and cosmetic products, has distributed more than 2,500 bottles of disinfectant sanitizer to elderly residents across the Valley. The company is working with churches and food banks to make sure their sanitizer is delivered to residents who would most benefit from keeping their hands clean during the pandemic. Floratech President Steve Brown said his company is not charging for the sanitizer and will keep producing bottles as long as they have the materials to do so. “We’re not trying to make any money off of it,” Brown said. “In fact, we have not taken a penny in payment for it.” When the COVID-19 pandemic hit Arizona last month, Floratech quickly set up an assembly line of workers inside a conference room and got to work filling up bottles individually by hand. None of the company’s 100 employees have been assigned to this project, Brown explained, because the workers filling bottles are doing so voluntarily. As hospitals and nursing homes stock up on cleaning supplies to keep patients safe during the pandemic, demand for materials to manufacture hand sanitizer has suddenly surged and created much uncertainty in the market. In an attempt to encourage manufacturers to make more sanitizer, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced last month it would be more “flexible” with firms wishing to make the alcohol-based product. Brown said Floratech only had

one drum of ethyl alcohol and a few hundred bottles to begin making their sanitizer. The company put in multiple orders for more alcohol, but Brown said most of them have either been canceled or delayed. “What would have been automatic two months ago is now sporadic,” Brown said, “you can’t be sure you’re going to get what you order.” Packaging materials have also become scarce, Brown added, since so much of the supply is made in China, where distribution channels have been interrupted by the coronavirus. Floratech currently has enough supply to keep making sanitizer over the near future, but Brown said the availability of raw materials may not be

as steady as it normally would. Several other companies have been donating resources to Chandler residents in an effort to stave off the pandemic’s negative impacts on the global economy. Oofos, an international footwear company, recently donated several pairs of shoes to health care workers at Chandler Regional Medical Center. AvAir, a Chandler-based aviation company, has given each of its employees an extra $500 to spend at local restaurants and businesses. Brown said his company’s always had the compulsion to give back to the community, especially during a time when nearly every business has been impacted by the public health crisis. Floratech opened in Arizona in 1975

and currently has facilities in Chandler and Buckeye, manufacturing ingredients that are sent to clients like Mary Kay or Johnson and Johnson. Though Floratech experienced a business lull in February, Brown said the company’s sales have increased within the last month. “I don’t know if that is a lasting trend,” the president said. “But it seems that people want their ingredients now in case transportation is disrupted and they can’t get them in the future.” Despite so much uncertainty about the future, Brown said Floratech plans to continue filling bottles of sanitizer until the pandemic starts to subside. “We will make every drop that we can and get it out to the community as soon as we can,” he added.

Chandler family recounts virus test frustration BY KEVIN REAGAN Staff Writer

A lack of available testing kits to diagnose the COVID-19 virus has generated frustration and confusion among Valley residents who fear they may be carrying the contagion. That frustration has played out in Chandler as well. For the last few weeks, residents across Arizona have been reporting barriers they’ve encountered when trying to get tested for the contagious disease. Public health officials have encouraged only those with clear symptoms of the virus to seek out testing since Arizona has not had a steady supply of testing materials. The state ramped up its testing numbers throughout March, yet hospitals were prioritizing testing for the elderly or the immunocompromised. In Chandler, Phoenix ER & Medical Hospital at 3050 S. Dobson Road, is offering free COVID-19 evaluations and testing. Pre-register at phoenixerhospital.com. Information: 480-284-5867. Though colleges have been trying to fill the gap by manufacturing testing kits of their own, the Arizona Department of Health Services has warned medical providers to still be cautious when it comes to ordering COVID-19 tests. ADHS Director Cara Christ advised doctors in late March they should not depend on having test results to manage treatment for patients suspected of having the virus.

“The current reality in Arizona and the rest of the country is that there are not available supplies to meet testing demand,” Christ wrote. “There is no specific treatment or management strategy [for COVID-19] and results should not change clinical management.” One Chandler family recently shared with the SanTan Sun News their experience of trying and failing to get a member of their household tested over the last couple weeks. Sarah Liou provided the following timeline of events after one of her relatives in Chandler started to feel symptoms of the coronavirus. March 22: Liou’s relative wakes up coughing, feverish, and to general feelings of lethargy. March 23: The symptoms have not gone away and the relative is starting to notice they’re having trouble breathing. The relative suffers from asthma and hypertension and worries the coronavirus might make their pre-existing conditions worse. March 24: The family contacts their doctor to inquire about receiving a COVID-19 test. They leave a message with a triage nurse. A physician’s assistant calls back an hour later and claims Liou’s relative cannot be tested if they haven’t had a fever for at least three full days. The physician’s assistant informs the family their office simply doesn’t have enough tests and the relative doesn’t meet the

office’s qualifications. The relative takes some Tylenol and rests. March 25: Liou’s relative wakes up feeling worse than before. They notify the doctor and are told nothing can be done if the relative’s temperature is less than 103 degrees. The family calls Banner Health’s testing hotline and is told to call back the following morning since there are no more available appointments for that day. March 26: Family calls hotline again and is placed on hold for more than 30 minutes. A representative says the relative’s symptoms sound like COVID-19, but advises they’re low on test kits and encourages family to try an urgent care center. The family contacts several nearby centers and each claims they have no tests available. They scan social media looking for more care centers. Only one reports having some testing kits, but they’re reserved for patients who recently traveled abroad or came into contact with a carrier of the virus. March 30: The relative has had the fever for several days now and calls their primary doctor again. The office claims they’re expecting a shipment of new testing kits later that day. An hour later, Liou’s relative calls back and is allegedly told the new tests were rerouted to a hospital that recently ran out. The relative is placed on a waiting list and told to await further instructions. April 5: The relative gives up for now with trying to get tested. Their

doctor reports still not having tests, but believes the relative’s ongoing symptoms suggest they may have the virus. Liou’s entire family self-isolates at home and avoids contact with outsiders in case they might be carrying the virus. Though the whole ordeal has been frustrating, Liou said her family doesn’t fault the doctors or hospitals since they’ve been placed in a dilemma that’s beyond their control. April 6: The Arizona Department of Health reports conducting more than 32,500 COVID-19 tests and confirms 2,456 cases of the virus. Doctors and officials around the country say that lengthy delays in getting results have persisted and that continued uneven access to tests has prolonged rationing and hampered patient care, according to the New York Times, which quote one healthcare official as saying “many local communities are flying blind.” At least 305,000 people in the U.S. have tested positive for the virus, although many public health experts say the actual number is much higher, the Times said. On April 6, President Trump said that the number of coronavirus tests in the U.S. now exceeds that in other countries, though the Times noted that on a per capita basis, the U.S. had tested far fewer people than several other countries. Federal inquiries have begun to determine how the nation’s testing capacity seemed to wilt in the early stages of the pandemic.

With no place to go, EV dairy farmers dump milk BY KEVIN REAGAN Staff Writer

A Chandler dairy farmer says the COVID-19 pandemic is pushing farmers to reluctantly dump some of their milk because there’s no place for their product to go. Rosemarie Burgos-Zimbelman, a long-time Chandler resident and dairy nutritionist, said school closures and export blockades have disrupted the dairy industry’s distribution channels, causing milk inventories to quickly clog up and not get shipped out. Burgos-Zimbelman’s family has had a dairy farm near Maricopa since 1997 and said their co-op, the United Dairymen of Arizona, has been dumping up to a million pounds of milk each day due to the public health crisis. “Everyone’s really scared,” said Burgos-Zimbelman, adding that most dairy farmers are already expecting 2020 to be a bad year for them financially. United Dairymen’s members collectively produce about 12 million pounds of milk per day. But the current pandemic has been interrupting where farmers are able to deliver their supply. Mexico announced last month it would temporarily stop accepting Arizona’s exports of dairy products due to the health crisis. United Dairymen CEO Keith Murfield said that decision will have a major impact on a local industry that generates a $7-billion footprint on Arizona’s economy.

added Burgos-Zimbelman, because dairies have to keep generating milk despite the market turmoil that’s taking place. Farmers have to keep milking cows every day, she said, or else the animals get stressed and they get thrown off their schedule. “It’s not something that we can Chandler resident and dairy nutritionist Rosemarie Burgos-Zimbelman and her family turn off,” she said. own the Rio Blanco Dairy Farm in Maricopa. Once farmers (Special to SanTan Sun News) fill up their tanks, the milk then must “Mexican exports contribute to over go through a testing and pasteurization $100 million in sales each year,” Murfield process at separate facilities before it is wrote in a statement, “and the inability deemed safe for human consumption. to move products across the border is “It’s not like you can just come to our catastrophic for our farmers.” dairy and fill up a mason jar or gallon jug,” On April 1, Gov. Doug Ducey asked Burgos-Zimbelman added. “It has to go the U.S. Department of Agriculture to through a process.” help intervene by getting the Mexican Farmers care deeply about their cows, government to come up with alternatives she said, and hate the idea of sending for local businesses that have existing them off to a slaughterhouse in order to relationships with the country. reduce the herd. “The dairy industry in Arizona is a “We’re not in the beef business,” crucial part of our local food supply, our Burgos-Zimbelman said, “we’re producing export market and Arizona’s agricultural milk and taking care of our cows.” sector,” Ducey wrote the agency. Though schools and restaurants The whole dilemma is more compliare likely not buying as much milk as cated than what the public might think,

before, grocery stores seem to have no problem selling milk – so much so that some stores started restricting customers to one or two gallons per visit. As shoppers began stockpiling their grocery carts in early March, stores quickly reacted by setting limitations on several essential food items. Burgos-Zimbelman said the dairies are trying to get stores to lift these restrictions so shelves can get restocked more frequently. Store managers likely had good intentions, she said, but there’s currently no milk shortage that would necessitate any type of quota. The East Valley region had once been a mecca for dairy farmers before cities like Chandler and Mesa began to urbanize and develop its farmland into subdivisions. Now, most farms have either moved south to Pinal County or consolidated their operations with other farmers. Membership in the UDA has been falling significantly since the 1990s, said Burgos-Zimbleman, who worries some farms might completely perish by the time COVID-19 has subsided. “Everyone’s really scared,” she said. “But we all know that there’s kids out there without food and we think we just need to find a way to bridge that gap and hopefully survive the next couple months.” The United Food Bank is accepting donations to help cover the costs of processing and transporting milk so it can be delivered to needy families in Arizona.

City revisioning Chandler Airpark as jobs hub SANTAN SUN NEWS STAFF

City officials have initiated a ninemonth process to reevaluate the economic potential of the Chandler Airpark. As vacant land becomes increasingly scarce in the city, planners are looking to the nine square miles surrounding the airpark as a space to strategically attract targeted industries. “It really is our final frontier of economic development,” said Micah Miranda, the city’s director of economic development. The airpark is currently home to more than 280 businesses and 10,000

jobs. But Miranda believes this economic corridor has the space and potential to add several thousand more jobs by prioritizing more industrial and commercial projects. The airpark corridor has been dominated by mostly retail jobs, Miranda added, so the city has the opportunity to further evaluate how to diversify the corridor’s economic landscape. City Council voted last month to spend $164,000 on updating the airpark’s area plan, which hasn’t been done since 1998. Since that time, the city’s population has grown immensely and its airport has experienced a boost in activity.

When the 1998 plan was written, most businesses around the airpark catered to the agriculture industry across the East Valley. But as the region has urbanized and developed over the last 20 years, farming has been pushed down to Pinal County and the local economy has had to expand to different industries. Some of the airpark’s current employers include FedEx, Zovio, Liberty Mutual Insurance, Offerpad, Crown Castle and Cardinal Health. With the city’s airport centrally located within the airpark, the city could consider reserving more of the corridor’s acres for aviation-related

commercial uses. Chris Andres, the airport’s administrator, said the airport often has up to 1,000 landings and take-offs from its runways on a daily basis. The city’s also in the process of updating the airport’s master plan by taking stock of what types of facilities it may need to further attract more business in the future. There has been a slowdown in activity within the last couple weeks, Andres added, which may be attributed to the COVID-19 pandemic shutting down businesses and events. See

Ocotillo restaurateur succumbs to cancer SANTAN SUN NEWS STAFF

Patrick King, a lifelong restaurateur and owner of three Ocotillo restaurants, died April 5 after a battle with melanoma. He was 55.

Chandler educators adjust to online learning BY KEVIN REAGAN Staff Writer

When the news came that Chandler-Gilbert Community College would be shifting to online instruction for the rest of the semester, Mike McFavilen immediately jumped into action. The chemistry instructor spent the following days taping hours of lectures from inside his tiny home office and then posting them to his YouTube account. “I pretty much dropped everything else and just started recording,” McFavilen recalled. He quickly adjusted to a new routine: wake up at 5 a.m., start recording lectures, and get as much done before his 3-year-old son interrupted him. Despite the hectic schedule, McFavilen managed to get 21 hours of content uploaded in less than 10 days. His circumstances are a bit more chaotic than other Chandler teachers quickly transitioning to online instruction amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. McFavilen’s wife is about to give birth to their second child, which will sequester the father for a two-week paternity leave while his students resume their classes online. Since McFavilen’s technically not supposed to work while on leave, he’s had to plan out the rest of the semester within a handful of days. “If I don’t have stuff planned out

generate a wealth of online content, he knows there are still some elements of chemistry best taught in a lab and can’t be mimicked at home. Students may be able to watch scientists simulate experiments through videos, but McFavilen said it’s not the same as working in a lab with their own hands. “It doesn’t quite fly,” he said. “You actually have to do those actions.” There are simply too many liabilities that come with having students conduct experiments at home, McFavilen added, and so he’ll probably forego any lab assignments for the rest of the semester. As a result, his department may have to adjust science courses next year to ensure students get any lab training they missed during the COVID-19 pandemic. “We’ll probably have to do more hand-holding in future semesters,” he said. Matthew Frable, a music teacher at Chandler’s Seton Catholic Preparatory High School, has also struggled finding ways to transition hands-on activities to an online format for his students. He’s accustomed to moving around his classroom, watching students practice their instruments and listening for them to hit the right notes -- all of which See

Virus challenges dentists’ delivery of care BY KEVIN REAGAN Staff Writer

The COVID-19 pandemic is placing Chandler’s dentists in the tricky predicament of keeping their practices open while not being allowed to provide care for several types of patients. Dr. Tyler Clayton, who works at Crossroads Dental Group on Germann Road, said he’s seen his patient numbers drop by about half since Gov. Doug Ducey ordered all dentists to only perform emergency procedures until the pandemic subsides. In an effort to preserve the state’s supply of masks and gloves, dentists like Clayton have been told to perform only urgent treatments for patients experiencing pain or discomfort. There are now hundreds of patients who may be waiting indefinitely to get routine dental care, Clayton said, which may lead to problems the longer their treatment is postponed. “We know that there’s many, many patients that will experience further dental problems because of this,” Clayton said. Dentists across the state find themselves in this unprecedented situation of only taking on a handful of patients each day while still trying to maintain their regular business operations. Even though dentists are seeing much fewer patients, Clayton said his staff must still be frugal with their inventory of masks and gloves. As hospitals scramble to meet a new demand for pro-

tective gear, the supply for other health providers has suddenly constricted. “There are days where we have to be extremely careful and cautious with what we have,” Clayton said. Some practices may have chosen to close during the pandemic, but Clayton said he feels a moral obligation to continue providing as many emergency treatments as possible. Dentists can help prevent some patients from walking into emergency rooms and straining the resources of local hospitals, Clayton added, and that helps doctors and nurses focus on delivering care to COVID-19 patients.

Clayton recalled a young man who recently came to his office in immense pain and a swollen mouth. “He was shaking, he was in so much pain,” the dentist said. His parents didn’t want to take the boy to a hospital, fearing he might catch the coronavirus there. So, they looked to Clayton to provide care at his own office. Clayton was able to manage the boy’s infection with an emergency root canal, sparing a hospital visit. That case exemplified how dentists are helping to conserve medical resources, Clayton said, and why anyone in pain shouldn’t put off dental care during this pandemic. But deciding which patients should be prioritized during this time can be challenging for dentists, since none of them want to risk a patient’s health by delaying care. “That’s the difficult position we’re in,” said Dr. Jennifer Enos, president of the Arizona Dental Association. Enos has a dental practice in Chandler and said her staff has been pushing back all non-urgent appointments to early May. No one knows for sure when this pandemic will end, Enos said, making it hard for dentists to know when they can start seeing regular patients again. Dentists in Arizona want to keep working, Enos added, but they feel limited in what they can do for the community. “It is incredibly difficult to know that

there’s this crisis going on and there’s very little that we can contribute to it at this point,” Enos said. The Dental Association advises hundreds of dentists across Arizona on best practices to keep their offices thriving and patients healthy. When Enos began her one-year term as president in January, she wasn’t quite expecting to deal with a global health crisis that would completely disrupt the industry. There’s several third-parties being impacted by how COVID-19 is affecting dentists, she said. When dentists can’t see as many patients, it means less business for all the labs and vendors who produce dental supplies. Right now, most of the association’s members are asking Enos how they’re going to weather this pandemic financially without laying off staff. “That’s still an ongoing question because the system is changing quite a bit,” Enos said. “The answer a week ago is different than it is today.” Dentists are hoping stimulus packages recently passed by Congress will soon provide some relief to hygienists and receptionists who have had hours cut. If the crisis drags on for several more weeks, the Dental Association is preparing to come up with a contingency plan that would better organize how dental patients are referred and treated. Not all dental offices in Arizona are equipped to treat a COVID-19 patient, Enos said, so there needs to be communication between all health providers to identify which oral surgeons can handle this specific demographic. Other states have established networks to better streamline care, but Enos said mimicking that in the Valley could be a challenge. “It is difficult in such a large metropolitan area to get everybody on the same page,” Enos said. Clayton is preparing for the ongoing pandemic to potentially hurt his practice in the coming weeks. But he’s trying to remain optimistic during this period of uncertainty and focus on the patients he’s still able to treat. “I’d rather do at least what I can to provide care to the community and hopefully make a small change,” Clayton said.

Questions remain in the wake of school closures SANTAN SUN NEWS STAFF

Chandler Unified School District is now providing an all-virtual learning environment but students – especially high school seniors – confront a slew of unanswered questions after social distancing and concerns over COVID-19 spread abruptly ended what started as a typical school year. Gov. Doug Ducey and state Superintendent of Schools Kathy Hoffman on March 30 ordered all schools in Arizona closed for the remainder of the 2019-20 year. But the state Board of Education at its first meeting after the closures left numerous questions unanswered. As of April 8, Chandler Unified Superintendent Camille Casteel in her latest public statement on the district website – dated March 30 – pleaded for patience from parents and students, promising some answers while she and her staff "coordinate with other district and state officials.” “Your child’s safety and health is our top priority and we will continue to work hard to minimize the impact related to their education.” Casteel wrote. Students in lower grades were directed to five different online platforms, each requiring a separate log-in protocol. A reminder parents and students stated: “When normal structures get disrupted, other responsibilities are placed on us and our students (e.g. taking care of younger siblings, helping provide a source of income, etc). Please have compassion for how much and when expectations are to be achieved. … Start by reviewing where you left off and slowly move to new material.” The district expanded its free distribution of cold breakfast and lunch sacks for all children 18 and under, though it requires children to be present when the meals are picked up Breakfast and lunch sites are opened 9:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m. Monday, Wednesday and Friday at Chandler, Perry and Hamilton high schools; Andersen, Santan and Willis junior highs and Sanborn Elementary. “Monday’s distribution will contain meals for Monday and Tuesday. Wednesday’s distribution will contain meals for Wednesday and Thursday. This allows us to limit contact with the

public yet still serve the daily needs of the community,” the district said. Unlike many districts, Chandler Unified also offered “grab and go” dinners and snacks 4-6 p.m. on Monday, Wednesday and Friday at Basha High and Frye and Hartford elementary schools. The closures impact seniors particularly hard since proms are virtually unlikely to be held and commencement exercises are in jeopardy. However, the district said it had not made a decision on either of those critical milestones.

educational opportunities that were provided during the days the schools were shuttered. That can include both online instruction and independent study through printed materials. But the rule does have an escape clause of sorts: if a student actually has not been doing anything while at home, schools can decide that he or she met the requirements if they were “on track to meet the minimum course of study and competency requirements prior to the school closure.’’ That can include, the rule says,

Your child’s safety and health is our top priority “ and we will continue to work hard to minimize the impact related to their education.” – Camille Casteel In a tribute to the Class of 2020, Perry High School started putting the lights in its stadium every night at 8:20 p.m. for 20 minutes through May 27, the scheduled day for graduations. In military time, that’s 20:20. State universities in Arizona, as well as community colleges in Maricopa County, already have canceled commencement exercises. In the meantime, all other Chandler school activities, such as concerts, plays and spring field trips, have been canceled. On the other hand, everything else at all schools – from trips and carnivals to plays and celebrations – have been cancelled. The state Board of Education decided that Arizona’s 86,000 high school seniors won’t be prevented from graduating just because the governor shut down schools. The board adopted an emergency rule that bars school districts and charter schools from withholding academic credit or a diploma “solely because the student missed instructional time due to a school closure issued by the governor.’’ The rule also says that schools, in determining if a student meets the minimum course and competency requirements, may consider whether that student has successfully completed the

whether the student was passing all of his or her courses. Also acceptable would be passing scores on locally or nationally administered academic assessments. That decision ultimately would be made by local school officials. And the rule spells out that when schools determine that students are entitled to academic credits and to graduate that they get their transcripts and diplomas “in the same manner’’ as if there had not been a closure. Hoffman told Capitol Media Services that the board wants students to be given the benefit of the doubt and get to graduate, even if they didn’t do any work at all since schools were shuttered last month. “There are definitely situations across the state where students are not going to be able to access high-quality curriculum, whether that’s because they don’t have the ability to get online, or they’re sick, or their family’s sick,’’ she said, citing “so many unique circumstances.’’ “I definitely would not encourage anybody to stop trying or stop working to access high-quality instruction and curriculum,’’ Hoffman said. “I just think we need to be honest that there’s going to be situations don’t have the ability to meet all the typical expectations we

would have during a normal school year.’’ Board of Education member Armando Ruiz worried about the larger effects of the shutdown of close to a third of the school year will have on students. “It’s going to take from three to five years for kids to catch up,’’ he said. Ruiz was particularly focused on students in the lower grades – and particularly from families who lack access to the internet. “I’ve heard people say you can do packets,’’ Ruiz said. “Parents are often ill-prepared to teach their kids at home.’’ He cited children in homes where the parents speak only Spanish and lack any way of getting help. “This is going to be an ongoing challenge for our state,’’ Hoffman said. “There’s no easy solution to make it up.’’ Hoffman conceded, “This will definitely be a multi-year project. It’s not something we can fix overnight.’’ In adopting the rules for graduation, board members declined to consider several suggestions for alterations. In a filing with the board, a group of school superintendents wanted a requirement to keep community colleges, universities and other post-secondary institutions from revoking already-issued admission letters which were contingent on successful completion of the school year. Hoffman, however, said the board does not regulate these institutions and has no legal right to direct what they do. They also suggested -- and the state board did not consider -- a “better but not worse’’ grading policy that allows students to use the time schools are closed to not only take advantage of learning opportunities but also make up missed work or retake exams. That would allow teachers at the end of the school year to update grades, but only to improve them and not to lower them. Board members in their discussion did not explain their decision not to consider those recommendations. But Hoffman said the board still could take up these issues at a regular meeting. “Today my intention was to prioritize and take care of some of the high-need areas,’’ she said.

is difficult to do from a computer. “Making the change so quickly was difficult because I had very little material prepared that easily transitioned to online learning,” Frable recalled. “We just had a few days’ notice before we had to be teaching online.” The school bought a few extra keyboards for Frable to loan out to students who didn’t have pianos at home. That has made it easier to assign songs for students to practice, Frable noted, but it’s not quite the same as having everyone play together as an ensemble. “I think students are also struggling with having to spend so much time at the computer sitting still,” Frable said. “They also miss the social aspect of seeing their friends.” Seton Principal Victor Serna said his school is taking a “balanced” approach to online learning by not overwhelming students with too much work during a stressful time. Seton teachers post assignments online at 9 a.m. and students have until the following afternoon to finish it. The Chandler Unified School District has chosen not to penalize students who don’t submit online assignments for the rest of the school year or let bad grades impact their overall score. CUSD teachers have been told to email out a number of math and English assignments throughout the week. But scores on these assignments

will only count for secondary students if it positively boosts their grade. Assignments won’t count at all for elementary students. At the college level, instructors like Nichole Neal plan to continue grading her students the same as before the switch to online instruction. Neal teaches engineering courses at Chandler-Gilbert Community College and said they’ve entertained the idea of handing out “pass” or “fail” grades this semester. But students at this level still need to be held responsible for their work, Neal said, so she plans to continue issuing letter grades. She’s begun recording live lectures from her home, where students can hear Neal go through PowerPoint pre-

sentations and explain upcoming assignments. Her students are in the middle of working on a group project that has them designing solar-energy homes in Chandler. It’s been difficult making sure students are still showing their work from home, Neal said, but she’s found some ways to work around this barrier. She plans to have students digitally send her photos of their scratch work so Neal can physically see how they arrived at an answer. “It’s challenging us in a good way to use the different forms of technology that we typically may not use in our face-to-face classes,” Neal said. The college’s engineering department was already in the process of offering a fully-online program as an option by the fall 2021. So, the COVID-19 pandemic has unexpectedly pushed faculty toward a direction they were already headed, Neal added, and forced instructors to think how they can better engage with students virtually. Yet, some educators like Mike McFavilen will always prefer teaching students face-to-face inside a classroom. He feels like he can better respond to a student’s needs and reactions when he’s standing in front of them. If they appear too bored, McFavilen can instantly improvise something to better get their attention. “You can change and reflect based off of what you’re seeing in that classroom,” he said. “Online, I don’t have that flexibility.”

Jobless claims continue soaring in state BY HOWARD FISCHER Capitol Media Services

The number of Arizonans out of work and seeking benefits hit yet another new record this past week as the state economy continues to feel the effects of COVID-19. New figures from the state Department of Economic Security show there were 129,215 initial claims for the week ending April 3. That compares with 88,688 the week before, 29,348 the week before that – and fewer than 3,000 at the end of February. But it will be at least two weeks before any of these people see any checks. DES spokeswoman Tasya Peterson said it normally takes 14 days to process the applications and determine eligibility. In some cases, she said, it can take a week beyond that. But Peterson noted that the benefits, when approved, are retroactive to the date of the application. And due to a recent change in Arizona law, there is no longer a one-week waiting period. Less clear is how much people will get, at least initially. Arizona law provides for those who lose their jobs through no fault of their own to receive half of what they were making. But there is a cap of $240 a week, the second lowest in the country. Congress did approve legislation

adding an extra $600 a week. But Peterson said her agency is still waiting for clear guidance from the U.S. Department of Labor before increasing the size of the checks. And that $600 boost only applies for the time between March 28 through the end of July. The labor situation has been complicated not only by the virus but by the decision of Gov. Doug Ducey to issue a “stay-at-home’’ order for all but essential workers. That still allows people to travel for things like buying groceries and picking up meals at restaurants. But it has left many companies unable to sustain their current workforce. In general, eligibility for unemployment benefits requires recipients to do at least four jobs searches a week. But a change in state law, necessitated to get federal dollars, expands eligibility to cover those who cannot work because of COVID-19, whether because they have it, they have been furloughed, or they are at home taking care of someone because of the virus. There were among the 6.6 million unemployment claims nationwide by the end of March, twice the 3.3 million of a week earlier. While the numbers are staggering, Arizona economists say they probably do not include all the people out of work and may be “just

the top half of an iceberg which has still many claims to come.” “Phone lines are clogged, websites are crashing, so there’s just a huge backup I think of claims yet to be filed,” said Arizona State University economics professor Lee McPheters, who was “startled” by the latest state jobless claims. “Because of the pent-up unemployment claims that people have not been able to file I think at least through the rest of the month we’re going to see huge numbers,” he said. “I just couldn’t tell you what they look like, but there is a lot more bad economic news to come.” Experts said it is the inevitable result of non-essential businesses closing their doors and people across the country practicing social distancing to tamp down the spread of COVID-19, which has led to an economy in freefall. “Anything that involved people getting together in close contact is getting shut down in an effort to control the outbreak,” said George Hammond, an economics expert at the University of Arizona. “That is generating these unprecedented levels of claims for unemployment insurance.” The Congressional Budget Office, noting that last week’s unemployment claims were about 10 times larger than the worst weeks of the 2007-2009

recession, released a gloomy second-quarter forecast. “The unemployment rate is expected to exceed 10 percent during the second quarter,” CBO Director Phillip Swagel said in a blog post. In the face of those numbers, the federal government is rushing to pump money back into the economy. DES, which handles about 3,500 unemployment claims in a typical week, said that it has already boosted its call center workforce from 13 to 100. McPheters said overwhelmed unemployment services departments like DES mean the problem is likely worse than anyone realizes – even though claims in Arizona have “essentially tripled in the most recent release that we have.” But McPheters said the state is better positioned to climb out of the coming economic troubles than it was in the past – whenever that turnaround comes. “Going into this downturn, compared to years past we are much more diverse now than we have been over past decades,” McPheters said. “This is all kind of based on the idea – is it a hope, is it scientifically viable – that all of this begins to reverse after June. That the virus infection curve starts turning down in June and things get back to normal,” he said.

SMILE AND EAT CONFIDENTLY Hamilton High School senior Shannon Maloney is taking the cancellation of big moments like the prom and graduation ceremonies in stride. (Pablo Robles/Staff Photographer)

Virus robs area high school seniors of memories BY KEVIN REAGAN Staff Writer

Shannon Maloney’s robotics club was excited to return to school and get back to work. The Hamilton High School student and her classmates had already spent at least 1,000 hours building and tweaking a robot to take to a regional competition this spring. They had just programmed their robot to start moving on its own when they got some troubling news; there’d be no competition this month because of the COVID-19 pandemic. In effort to curb the spread of the contagious virus, nearly all social events around Arizona have been shut down until further notice. Now as Maloney waits to hear whether the competition will be rescheduled for the summer, she’s left feeling like all the club’s work might have been for nothing. “We spent pretty much the entire third quarter – from the first Saturday in January up until the end of third quarter – working on this every day,” Maloney said. The competition is one of several events Maloney’s expecting to miss as her last year of high school winds down. Prom, graduation and end-of-theyear parties are all either already canceled or about to be scrubbed or postponed while the world waits for the pandemic to wane. Some school districts, including Mesa, already have canceled a commencement ceremony and officials are promising to explore “creative” alternatives. Some have discussed holding a ceremony later in the summer while others are exploring a virtual commencement. Maloney is not too disappointed at the prospect of missing out on these traditional events that mark the end of high school. It doesn’t make sense to have a bunch of students assemble in a confined space, she said, where they could potentially infect each other.

“I think for the good of society, to get everybody to overcome this pandemic, it’s okay to get rid of those things,” Maloney said. She might host a fancy dinner in lieu of a prom and doesn’t mind potentially having to stand six feet from her classmates at graduation. Maloney’s one of nearly 47,000 students in the Chandler Unified School District who’s had their fourth quarter abruptly interrupted by the ongoing public health crisis. The pandemic hit while CUSD was on its two-week spring break, slowing down the district’s ability to quickly transition instruction over to an online format. Superintendent Camille Casteel recently assured the district’s Governing Board her staff was working as fast as possible to have students learning again and asked for patience during this unprecedented event. “I understand how some of our parents are very concerned that we haven’t rolled everything out,” Casteel told the school board on March 25. “We are in the process of mobilizing over 5,000 employees to provide quality learning materials to 47,000 children and it’s just taken us a few days to gear up to that level.” On March 30, the district formally implemented its “distance learning” plan, which requires teachers to electronically hand out a number of assignments each week. The district is checking to see who logs online every day, but it won’t penalize students for not completing virtual assignments since some may struggle to gain digital access. Chandler Unified is also offering paper assignments that can be picked up in-person. Elementary students won’t have assignments count to their overall grade and secondary students will receive credit only if the assignments improve their existing grade. Chandler Unified said it will devote extra time and attention to students at See

survive, it’s not a panacea. Noting that at least some landlords themselves also are up against the wall financially, she is urging Chandler businesses to open a dialogue now rather than later with their landlords. “There are two sides of this,” Kimble said, explaining that with landlords, “sometimes their hands are tied with their bank or venture capital.” Michael Pollack, a Chandler owner of strip malls across the county and in three other states, agrees. He said the federal government must overcome the sluggish delivery of relief funds and get money into the hands of cash-strapped business owners fast. “What most people don’t realize is that landlords have loans,” Pollack said. “They don’t understand what the terms of those loans really mean.” Noting many of those loans forbid lease changes without the lender’s permission,” Pollack explained, “If you do it without the consent of the lender, then you can be in default of your loan and the remedies available for the lenders could be used.” Those remedies include a nullification of the loan and even foreclosure. “Even if a landlord could afford a adaptations to their leases, unfortunately with those loan documents out there, it’s not easy at all,” he said. Worse, he said, many loans end up being sold to investment companies where “you learn real fast, there’s nobody to talk to.” Ducey’s order says commercial landlords must consider deferring rent payments for those who cannot pay the bill due to financial hardship created by COVID-19. The order also encourages landlords to work with tenants to waive late fees, penalties and interest due to late payments as well as develop repayment plans. The governor’s directive to the courts is that “a commercial eviction action including lock out, notice to vacate or any other attempt to inhibit the operations of a business shall be temporarily suspended for tenants unable to pay rent due to financial hardship caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.’’ The only exception in Ducey’s order is in cases where a judge determines that staying any eviction action is “contrary to the interest of justice.’’ His order does not spell out what that includes. Ducey’s order, which covers businesses up to 500 employees, is effective through the end of May. His directive comes nearly two weeks after a similar executive order dealing with residential rentals. But in the residential order, Ducey barred police officers and constables from carrying out eviction orders under certain triggers related directly or indirectly to COVID-19. The order for business-landlord situations only directs judges on what they may and may not do. Aaron Nash, spokesman for the Arizona Supreme Court, said there is no concern on the part of the justices that Ducey has tread into their area of jurisdiction since judges can still determine

in return for signing a five-year lease and that the tenant already sought a delay in making the first month’s payment. “So, from the landlord’s standpoint, he’s taking a look at it and saying, ‘Okay. I just gave you five months free rent. Did you put some savings?’” Kimbell said. “When you got months of not paying a bill, the landlord is going to wonder what you did with that money,” she said. “There are really two sides to this because landlords are businesses too.” Ducey’s order on business evictions spells out that tenants getting any form of public assistance must apply “a portion’’ to any current or past-due rents. The Arizona Small Business Association last week put out this "cheat sheet" as a guide to some of the major federal assistance programs That includes a available to businesses.

risk of not graduating or not advancing to their next grade level. Maloney said her teachers have gone a great job making themselves available to answer questions and posting assignments through Google Classrooms. During her first week of distance

learning, Maloney’s teachers have assigned her to write a paragraph in Spanish about life under quarantine, answer some free-response chemistry questions, and start a book report on “The Color Purple.” She is enrolled in several Advanced Placement courses, which allow students to take a rigorous exam at the end of the year to earn college credit.

College Board, which administers the exams, recently announced they will allow students to take the timed tests at home on their personal computers. Maloney said she’s not worried about earning enough credits to graduate. She was already doing well before the pandemic hit and expects the district to be more accommodating during this tumultuous time.

“Everybody’s fourth quarter is messed up,” she said. “We have to be lenient with how many assignments we’re going to have or what final exams are.” Though her senior year didn’t end quite the way she imagined, Maloney said she’s trying to remain calm until the pandemic subsides and looks forward to attending the University of Arizona in the fall.

Rosati’s patriarch enjoyed life and cookies BY CHRISTINA FUOCO-KARASINSKI Staff Writer

Fred Rosati loved people. Even in his last few years, the patriarch of the Rosati’s Pizza restaurant group that includes an eatery in Ocotillo would strike up conversations with fellow shoppers at area stores. Mr. Rosati died March 30 at 102 in Cave Creek. “He’d go to Walmart with his caretaker, get a motorized cart and talk to everyone” said his daughter, Regina Rosati, with a laugh. “He loved people. He loved to talk to everyone.” Born in Chicago on June 23, 1917, Mr. Rosati was one of 10 children and the “keeper of a great family restaurant tradition.” In the late 1890s, his family served Italian food to customers in New York. After the turn of the century, the family moved to Chicago and opened another restaurant that served Italian-style pizza

before founding the chain. He opened his first pizzeria in Mount Prospect, Illinois, in 1964, and cofounded the franchise in the 1970s. His sons Rick and Jeff are the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, respectively. In 1946, the World War II veteran married Theresa Cortina, who survives him at age 100, along with his other children Stephanie Haack, Michael, Annamarie Bensfield and William, and their significant others. He was also proud of his 14 grandchildren and six great-grandchildren. “He was healthy throughout his entire life,” Haack said. “I never saw anybody who could eat so many cookies and he never gained a pound. His bloodwork was always perfect.” Mr. Rosati wintered with his children in Cave Creek and summered in Door County, Wisconsin. “He loved to go fishing,” Regina said “My name is Lori Savachka. I am 53 years old and finally in the best shape of my life. From May 1, 2017-April 30, 2018 I lost 100 pounds! I have gone from 227lbs to 127lbs and have lost over 100 inches!

about his time on the Mink River. “He would spend his summers there and his winters in Arizona. Those were his two favorite places. He was the kind of person who everybody liked. Once you met him, you liked him immediately. Everybody was always included. There was always room for one more.” Haack said religion was important to Mr. Rosati and he “never, ever missed Mass. He went to Mass at 102, two weeks before he died.” His heart was into having fun, especially when his children were little. “When we were kids, we’d play hide and seek,” Haack said. “He would hide on top of the refrigerator and jump down. This is the type of guy he was. We were really, really little. We never looked on top of the refrigerator. He was very athletic, so he could jump down with no problem at all.” His life goal was to see his favorite team, the Chicago Cubs, win the World

Series. It happened when he was 99. “He loved baseball passionately,” Haack said. “He was 99 when they won. He waited a long time, but he was really, just, so happy. That was one of the highlights of his life.” Baseball was in his blood. He coached Little League Baseball in Riverside, Illinois. When he wasn’t coaching in an official capacity, he would host a game for the neighborhood kids, serving as umpire and pitcher for both teams. When they were done, they’d have pizza straight from the oven at the Rosati home. “He never had a bad day,” Haack said. “Every morning he was ready to go. He always had plans. He was 102 and still had plans. He loved life and was very generous. He gave to so many charities. He would see something on TV and have to give. He would always say, ‘You have to enjoy your life and don’t worry,’ which is especially poignant now.”

All-Arizona baseball season plan creates controversy BY CARSON FIELD Cronkite News

Nearly a month has passed since the COVID-19 pandemic brought the sports world to a halt. Every active league postponed or canceled seasons, including Major League Baseball. But MLB is working on a plan to reboot the sport in a move that will be judged bold or foolish, depending on how it unfolds. Last week, ESPN’s Jeff Passan reported that baseball is discussing a plan to begin the 2020 season in May with all 30 teams living and playing in Arizona. If approved, the league would reportedly use Chase Field, the home of the Arizona Diamondbacks, along with the Valley’s 10 spring training facilities. Fans would not be allowed to attend games, but they would be televised. A MLB statement Tuesday addressed the report. “MLB has been actively considering numerous contingency plans that would allow play to commence once the public health situation has improved to the point that it is safe to do so,” the statement said. “While we have discussed the idea of staging games at one location as one potential option, we have not settled on that option or developed a detailed plan.” Sports fans are longing for the resumption of live games and events, but some members of the baseball community see the plan as flawed in several ways. Perhaps most important: It’s a health concern. According to the Arizona Department of Health Services, the state currently has 2,575 coronavirus cases – 1,494 of which are located in Maricopa County, where all the games would be played. With still so much unknown about the virus and its spread, Zach Buchanan, who covers the Arizona Diamondbacks for The Athletic, believes the idea is too risky from a health perspective. “Can you guarantee that every player that takes the field is not carrying the virus? Not without really widespread testing, which we don’t have right now,” Buchanan said. “There’s just a lot of different ways this can fall apart, so I don’t think it’s really a plan that makes a lot of sense.” Buchanan isn’t alone. USA Today baseball columnist Bob

Milwaukee Brewers infielder Brock Holt hails from Texas but many MLB players come from other parts of the world. “Having everybody come in from different states and countries,” could provide challenges, sportswriter Bob Nightengale said. (Photo by Reno Del Toro/Cronkite News)

Nightengale said he thinks having hundreds of MLB personnel coming from different areas to one location could create more issues. Players came from 48 of 50 states and from 23 other countries last season, according to Baseball Almanac. “A problem is having everybody come in from different states and countries and thinking that everybody is going to be isolated,” Nightengale said. “And nobody testing positive is a real stretch. People are saying, ‘Wait a minute, it’s going way too fast; let’s just take our time.’” Additionally, health concerns surround where the players would be housed. With players likely to be based in Valley hotels, it could create worry for the owners of the properties, including Jon Erickson, who is the director of sales and marketing at Sheraton Downtown Phoenix. “Our first concern is the safety and health of our staff and guests,” Erickson said. “This doesn’t affect us until it’s made official and at that time, we’ll decide what’s best for the safety of our

staff here at our hotel.” Buchanan and Nightengale share other doubts about the plan. There are plenty of concerns regarding the financial side of playing all the games in Arizona. The Major League Players Association will have to sign off on the idea, which could cost its players money. “They’re not going to be getting their major-league salaries because there are no fans at the games, so would they want to take a pay cut to also not see their families? I doubt it,” Buchanan said. Nightengale added, “If there’s no fans in the stands, the owners say that’s a third of the profit, so who’s going to pay for that? They also don’t have the naming rights or the stadium advertising. If you’re the New York Mets and you’re playing at Chase Field, it doesn’t do you any good because it doesn’t say Citi Field.” Arizona’s heat is another issue to consider. The average high temperature in Phoenix during June is 104 degrees, according to the National Weather Service. The average high spikes to 107 degrees in July. It is likely that games

would have to be played early in the morning or in the evening to avoid the sweltering heat and also accommodate television viewers in the east. And with only 11 ballparks including Chase Field and the Cactus League facilities, MLB will need to be creative to find other stadium options. Some possibilities could include using local college facilities, such as Arizona State’s Phoenix Municipal Stadium, Grand Canyon University’s GCU Ballpark, or Packard Stadium, the former home of ASU baseball. If all of these facilities were available, plus if Chase Field were able to host doubleheaders, every MLB team could play a game on any given day. But this is all hypothetical. And if Buchanan had to predict, the talks will evaporate quickly. “I doubt we’ll hear much about it going forward,” Buchanan said. “They’re at the drawing board trying to come up with ways to do it and kick ideas around, and that’s fine. But I doubt that we’ll be seeing baseball in this form.

State warns Chandler firm on COVID-19 advertising SANTAN SUN NEWS STAFF

Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich is demanding a Chandler-based company stop advertising products that might imply they can provide immunity from the COVID-19 virus. Prepper’s Discount on Frye Road has allegedly been promoting a product it calls “immunity tablets” in conjunction with gas masks the company’s been selling during the coronavirus pandemic. One promotion showed the company giving away 10 of these immunity tablets with the purchase of two masks. On April 6, Brnovich’s office wrote

to Prepper’s Discount and warned the company it was misleading the public if it didn’t have any scientific evidence

to prove the immunity tablets were resistant to COVID-19. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has not yet approved any product that prevents or treats the coronavirus. “The AGO demands that Prepper’s Discount, Inc. immediately and permanently cease and desist from marketing or selling merchandise in any manner that suggests that the merchandise provides immunity from COVID-19,” Brnovich’s letter stated. If the company did not cease promotion of the tablets, Brnovich’s office warned Prepper’s Discount could be liable to pay large civil penalties.

“The AGO will not tolerate attempts by businesses to prey on the fears of Arizonans during this public health crisis by using misrepresentations to sell or advertise products,” the letter said. The company’s website now has a disclaimer stating, “No supplements sold can or will provide a cure for COVID-19.” Prepper’s Discount appears to sell a wide variety of survival gear like flashlights, knives, ponchos, and fire-starter kits. The company’s still selling bottles of “Instant Immunity” capsules on its website, but makes no mention of COVID-19 in the product’s description.

Chandler businesses get creative in virus’ wake BY KEVIN REAGAN Staff Writer

Chandler businesses impacted by the catastrophic COVID-19 pandemic are finding creative ways to continue delivering services to their customers. Though patrons aren’t able to dine inside Ginger Monkey on Ocotillo Road, the restaurant is running up a mini market of essential food items. High-demand items like eggs, bread, butter, and even toilet paper can be ordered by calling Ginger Monkey and then picked up at the restaurant within the same day. Jackson Armstrong, the restaurant’s owner, said the mobile-market idea seemed like a productive way to get rid of all the inventory Ginger Monkey won’t be using these next few weeks. Since customers have been ordered not to visit restaurants and bars, Armstrong said businesses like his have to find alternative uses for all its products before the food goes bad. Patrons are able to buy a five-pound bag of potatoes for $4, a chub of ground beef for $25, three oranges for $1, and a packet of instant yeast for $4, among other items. There are some food items that are

getting increasingly hard to find around grocery stores, Armstrong said, so it made sense for his restaurant to open up its pantry to the public. Other restaurants across the Valley have been introducing a similar concept in order to sell off unused items. But Armstrong sees his market as serving a greater purpose – one that benefits his

neighbors during this time of uncertainty. “If it’s filling a need in the community, then I’m all for that,” he said. “That’s what we’re all about.” The Living Room at 2475 W. Queen Creek Road, Chandler, also has started a commissary selling a variety of typical grocery items as well as offering a takeout dinner menu of salads, pizza and

Dettails are at livingroomwinebar.com Ginger Monkey, which opened in 2016, was preparing to debut its renovated dining room when the COVID-19 pandemic struck in early March. The Food Network visited the restaurant earlier this year to feature it in an episode of “Restaurant: Impossible,” featuring makeovers of restaurants across the country. Armstrong said he’s contractually barred from discussing specifics about the renovations until the restaurant’s episode airs. Armstrong said his staff has begun selling meals to volunteers at local nonprofits to bring in a little revenue. “We’re getting creative to have some cash flow coming through the bank,” he said. “It’s a fraction of what we normally do, but it’s something.” It’s important to remain optimistic during this time, Armstrong added, because he knows Ginger Monkey has better days ahead. “I want to stay on the offense instead of just playing defense because I believe that when we open up it’s See

Consultants offer advice for local businesses BY KEVIN REAGAN Staff Writer

Businesses across Chandler may be nervous about how the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact but local business counselors say there are many resources available that can help companies persevere during this tumultuous time. About 90 percent of the city’s businesses expect the pandemic to impact their operations, according to a recent poll done by the Chandler Chamber of Commerce. Many businesses told the Chamber they might have to temporarily close and are looking for financial relief to keep their doors open. Chandler Innovations, a program that helps local entrepreneurs launch their business, is looking to assist Chandler’s business community by offering mentorship and steering companies to helpful resources. CEO Diana White and Tom Fulcher, the organization’s entrepreneur-in-residence, shared their thoughts with the Chandler Arizonan. Their responses were edited for clarity and length. Q: What is Chandler Innovations doing at the moment to help the business community? White: Prior to what we have going on now, we offered curriculum, resources for mentors, we offered access to funding and capital. We offer a myriad of things including community events. Since everything’s gone virtual, there’s not a whole lot we can do with

the social distancing rule. We decided to take all those resources and bring it virtually. With the city’s support, we’ve also decided to open it up and not have it just be for companies that Chandler Innovations only deal with… Now we’re opening it up to pretty much any Chandler business that is struggling and needs help. We are offering that service free of charge to them. We want to do everything that we possibly can to help the entire economic ecosystem for Chandler. Fulcher: We’re both working oneon-one with clients. We’re running a series of webinars using local experts to kind of host town halls to cover some of the key issues that are going on. For our internal clients, we have a system where we offer communication where I am also sharing various announce-

ments. Those are just three of the key ways I’m interacting with our clients and happy to interact with other Chandler small businesses who can go to our website and request assistance. Q: Since you interact one-on-one with businesses, what are their biggest concerns or questions they have at this time? Fulcher: Small businesses care very deeply about their employees and what they can do to keep their employees at this time while still managing the business. Both startups and existing companies are asking about access to capital. I’m working hard to keep people updated with changes (to economic disaster loans) and walking people through that process. Some people just want to talk about how this is impacting their business and how they’re gonna move

forward. Q: Are you thinking about the longterm impacts this crisis will have on the business community in terms of entrepreneurs not having the ability to start their business? White: I feel like we might see the opposite. We know that the economy is going to take a really bad hit and I think that’s going to prompt a lot of people to say ‘Maybe this is the time that I strike out on my own and figure out what I’m going to do with this idea.’ Many of these ideas will come in forms of solutions to our new norm -- whatever that turns out to be. Fulcher: I am seeing some innovation already. A client had a concept patented a few years ago but they hadn’t really pursued it too actively. But this particular product has applications in our current environment. So, they’re very excited about moving forward. In the startup community, one of the questions is certainly around investor funding and we have seen through multiple reports that investor funding is down significantly in the first quarter. Investors tend to currently invest in places where they’ve already invested. They are tracking and keeping in touch with new businesses for future investment but that early-stage investment is a little delayed.

Grocery warehouses addressing bare shelves BY DZEVIDA SADIKOVIC Cronkite News

Empty store shelves symbolize the frustrations and fears of the COVID-19 pandemic. Mark Miller, president of the Arizona Food Marketing Alliance, in an email interview, discussed how panic led to hoarding but warehouses are being replenished, the rising popularity of grocery delivery services and the appreciation felt by industry employees who are working hard for Arizonans. “The Arizona Food Marketing Alliance is a trade organization that helps with education, legislation, regulation and connecting, he said. “We represent most of the food industry – this includes large local and corporate grocery chains. AFMA supports independent grocery stores throughout the state and helps the convenience store industry with the same goals. “Our members are made up of the wholesalers, brokers and suppliers that service grocery and convenience stores with their food and beverage needs.” Question: We’ve seen customers treat grocery store workers like heroes. What is that like? Answer: This industry is made up of some of the hardest working people you will ever meet. This includes those involved with transporting food and beverages from the distribution centers to stores and those responsible for stocking the shelves and checking out shoppers. The grocery and food service industry has always focused on customer service and taking care of the customer. They’ve risen to the occasion to shine and have set a new standard in delivering world-class customer care during this, one of our nation’s biggest crises. Q: What is Arizona’s grocery industry doing to provide an uninterrupted food supply to the state’s grocery stores? A: Looking back just a few weeks ago, our stores were full and well-mer-

chandised. Our distribution centers had plenty of product on hand to keep all the stores full and well-presented for many weeks. Then the panic hit, the stress went across the state like a fire. Our customers were unsure and frightened that they were not going to be able to get the food they needed to feed their families. The word came that the restaurants were starting to close. This started more panic throughout the industry. The panic caused shoppers to over buy what they considered to be the essentials. This included sanitation items, paper goods and most food items. Stores were under pressure every day to replenish merchandise that was sold out. This panic caused most stores to put limits on the number of items that each customer could buy. These limits have helped to slow down the over buying and that is giving the industry a chance to replenish our warehouses.

Q: What do you say to people alarmed by empty shelves? A: America has one of the best food systems in the world. Our sophisticated systems ensure that our stores have the ability to satisfy all the demands from our customers. The uncertainty triggered hoarding on several high demand items. The hoarding caused the fear, the fear amplified the overbuying. Arizona has a large food supply that was moved very quickly into homes. We are starting to see improvements over the last several days. With product limits, we believe our customers will start to see less out of stock, and that should calm the over purchasing of items. Q: Is the issue one in which such items as chicken and toilet paper aren’t available in grocery store warehouses, or is manufacturing and processing not keeping up with high demand no one envisioned?

A: Certain items that come from animals have a natural limit. A hen can only lay one egg over a 24- hour period. A cow can only produce so much milk in a given time. Q: Is it hard to force limits on the number of products customers are allowed to buy? A: Our stores are in the customer service business, so putting these limits on these high demand products was not an easy decision, but it was necessary. Q: In some U.S. stores, the police or the National Guard have been brought in to restock shelves and enforce purchase limits on certain items when they become available. Your thoughts? A: This is not the case in Arizona. The National Guard is helping with transportation and stocking in some stores. Some stores do have security guards on a normal basis. While there have been a few issues, in most cases our customers have been appreciative and supportive of our employees. Q: Several chains, such as Bashas’ and Safeway, are reserving special hours for seniors, who are thought to have the highest risk of infection. Do you expect that to continue, and what has been the response from seniors? A: We are not sure at this point. We will continue to keep our vulnerable customers safe during this crisis. Q: Are rural areas or any other areas in Phoenix and elsewhere experiencing more shortages on food and other household items such as hand sanitizers and toilet paper? A: The shortages on high demand items are consistent throughout the entire state. Q: What are some measures that you are taking to protect workers at grocery stores and other food supply companies when it comes to the exposure to the coronavirus? A: Several stores will be installing clear plexiglass to ensure customers and checkers have a barrier and safe distance at the checkout.

ASU economist looks at virus-stricken economy

Here, the higher fatality rate and the panic response of consumers has really changed everything. So, in addition to the economic problems is the overlay of panic on a national scale and apparently on a global scale, in most countries. Q: So how do economists account for something like this? A: After the severe recession of 2008, economists adopted the term “black swan,” referring to events that are rare, unpredictable and have wide impact. The financial crisis was a black swan event. One of the features of a black swan event is that typically, as you start working back through the history, all the analysis suggests we should have seen this coming.

Lee McPheters, research professor of economics in the W. P. Carey School of Business at Arizona State University and director of the school’s JPMorgan Chase Economic Outlook Center, offered his analysis of the of the economy last week. He said that while the current economic free fall is unprecedented, recovery could potentially be quick. Question: Have you ever seen anything like this pandemic? Answer: No. That’s despite the fact that the common flu has tended to have increasingly greater fatalities in recent years. We have built that into our common understanding of, “This is life in the 21st century and there’s flu, but life and the economy go on.”

nesses during this time? White: I believe that the government and all affiliated entities are doing whatever they can as quickly as they can once they find out the need. I think this is going to be an evolutionary process. I don’t think there’s one quick fix. I think they’re trying to be as proactive as they can, but in a sense, they can’t help but be reactive because this is something new. We’ve never experienced this before. Nobody has a crystal ball. We can’t know what we don’t know yet. Fulcher: The biggest thing people are looking for now is clarity on how stimulus packages apply to them. That’s a gap we’re trying to help Chandler clients on.

gonna be great,” he said. “We’ve got a brand-new restaurant.” Nearly every business throughout Chandler is preparing for the coronavirus to hurt its operations in the coming months. According to a recent survey by the Chandler Chamber of Commerce, 90 percent of 550 local businesses foresee the pandemic impacting them, many expecting to lay off workers or temporarily close.

innovation in response to the unexpected supply shortages happening in various markets? White: I think we’re already seeing innovation. We’ve got distillery companies now making hand sanitizer. We’ve got a myriad of companies changing the way they do business to kind of keep up with the demand. We’ve got people donating supplies. We’re trying to come together and we’re trying to do the best that we can. This is the type of adversity that brings the entrepreneur out in everybody. Fulcher: There’s a COVID-19 taskforce tech fund out there looking to immediately fund small businesses with innovations in this area. I spoke with a client who’s already in the process of looking into that COVID tech fund. So, there’s definitely some innovation out there... I know I’m digging in

trying to understand these new funds and opportunities for innovation. Q: The Chandler Chamber came out with a survey showing that 90 percent of local businesses were expecting a negative impact as a result of this pandemic. Are you surprised by those results and does it concern you? White: I’m not surprised. We’re all business owners, entrepreneurs, founders, executives. But we’re all human beings. Anytime something like this happens, it doesn’t matter how much of a grasp you have on business. There tends to be a little bit of uncertainty and maybe a little bit of panic. There’s some truth to it. We are going to see changes. There’s going to be a new normal. I believe there’s always balance in economics. It may get bad, but it always seems to bounce back. Q: Do you have any parting advice

for business owners to get through this difficult time? White: Be cautious. Be safe. But don’t panic. Definitely get a partner, especially if you’re about to make some heavy decisions. If you’re going to take out a loan, layoff employees, take in a partner to figure out if those are the right moves at the right times. I think that is critical. And taking a moment to breathe before making those rash decisions. This is definitely the time to be strategic. Fulcher: Social distancing is not the same as emotional distancing. So, find people to talk to and people who can help. There’s a lot of resources, a lot of people who want to help. Knowing you are part of something as opposed to on your own is a huge difference in how you perceive what’s going on and how you react.

Yet, Chandler business owners are devising crafty strategies to provide products that can easily be delivered with the minimum amount of person-to-person contact. TouchUps Salon on Dobson Road is handing out coloring kits to help customers keep their gray hairs concealed. Anthony Colello, the salon’s owner, said stylists will be mixing colors to match the specific shades of each client and providing enough color to get them through this period of self-isolation. “It will cover what you can see in the mirror,” Colello said.

Colello posted a how-to video on YouTube demonstrating how his clients are to part their hair and apply streaks of color along their roots. Residents who are not regular clients of TouchUps can still order a kit by undergoing a curbside consultation, in which stylists will examine the customer’s hair through their car window. When the COVID-19 virus forced salons across Arizona to stop styling hair, Colello worried his clients would attempt to continue coloring themselves by purchasing the boxed dyes. “Box color can be a nightmare to

get out of people’s hair,” said Colello, noting it can cost a client hundreds of dollars to fix the damage. To better protect the scalps of his clients, Colello decided to offer his $50 coloring kits once he realized his salon likely won’t be booking any new appointments for at least another month. These kits likely won’t be enough to sustain the salon, Colello added, but they’re really meant to offer some relief to clients during this unstable time. “This isn’t about making money right now,” he said. “This is about providing a service to the community.”

Coronavirus has a valuable retirement lesson BY DR. HAROLD WONG Guest Writer

On March 18, the DowJones stock market index had a steep drop, briefly pushing the 30-stock index below the level where it closed on Jan. 19, 2017, the day before President Trump took office. Due to the coronavirus shut-down of the US economy, the historic stock market meltdown has wiped out years of gains in a matter of weeks. After

hitting a low of 18,591.93 at the March 23 close, there has been a substantial rebound but many have lost 20-35 percent or more of their retirement savings. The data on March 26 showed that a record 3.28 million Americans filed for unemployment benefits during the last week, compared to 281,000 the previous week. Here are the retirement planning lessons that might be learned by this unforeseen health and financial crisis: Your emergency savings should be at least 12-18 months’ living expenses held

in the bank or somewhere safe. This exceeds the normal six months goal espoused by financial planners. In contrast, many surveys over the last three years found that 30-40 percent of Americans don’t have $1,000 of emergency savings. If you are within 10 years of retirement or already retired, you can’t have most of your life savings in the stock market. Since the beginning of this century on January 1, 2000, there has been the 2000-2002 Dot-Com Crash and the 2008-2009 Financial Meltdown, where the stock market dropped by about 50 percent. The coronavirus panic occurred and

In comparison, with the average 2 percent dividends from S&P 500 stocks over the last 20 years, she’d have to save $1,250,000 to get the same $25,000 of income. Yet, in a financial panic major companies often cut their dividends to save cash. She would have had to save an extra $1 million ($1,250,000 vs. $250,000) in order to get the same $25,000 income. How many people can save an extra $1 million? What has to change to achieve the above four steps? One has to substantially increase one’s savings and safe retirement cash flow.

Due to the coronavirus shut-down of the US “ economy, the historic stock market meltdown has wiped out years of gains in a matter of weeks.” within five weeks people could have lost 35 percent or more of their life savings. You are safer with at least two streams of income besides your primary job. It could be a side business where you net $20,000 per year and a private pension fund that generates the same. If you have $40,000 a year of steady income outside of your job, most can survive for the year. Your primary goal should be maximizing the amount of steady (safe and predictable) cash flow that you get in retirement. One can maximize one’s Social Security Benefits; receive an 8-10 percent rate of cash flow from private pensions; or earn 7-9 percent from real estate lending or equipment leasing. Your amount of safe retirement cash flow is often more important than your rate of return on traditional Wall Street investments. Example: A nurse deposited $250,000 in a private pension fund at age 62 and will receive $25,000 of annual income when she turns age 70.

The average U.S. savings rate is about 8 percent of after-tax income versus 37 percent in China. Suppose your family household income was $75,000. If you add a side business that nets $15,000, that allows you to save $5,000 of tax. And if you save $10,000 from your $75,000 of income, that’s a total $30,000 of annual savings. If you can earn an average 7 percent in 20 years, you’ll have an extra $1,315,955 if it’s in a tax-deferred retirement account. In low-cost Arizona, that’s financial freedom for most people.

“

Panic buying in and of itself is somewhat of a black swan. It was totally unexpected by grocery stores and retail outlets but I guess in hindsight, they should have thought that like in a hurricane, people will empty the shelves.

from page 28

In hindsight, we should have had much better and wider investment in public health. Q: So, is it too soon to predict what will happen with the economy? A: We don’t have very many indicators that have a high level of frequency. The stock market is a daily indicator and that’s why it has so much attention. But the stock market is disconnected from the real economy, which is jobs and output and production. One indicator that economists focus on is initial claims for unemployment insurance. Arizona’s labor force is about 3.5 million people. So 1 percent is 35,000. So, if 35,000 file for unemployment, the unemployment rate goes up by 1 percent. That might continue for several weeks. Arizona has been running at about 4.5 percent unemployment and I expect that to double. Q: What about other segments of the Arizona economy? A: The big picture is to look at the drivers of the Arizona economy and one of the drivers is population growth. A big portion of our population growth is made up of people moving here from

other states. Well, people aren’t moving right now. There has been pent-up demand for housing, but I think that with in-migration grinding to a complete halt, it will have an effect on construction. What I think we’ll see possibly is smaller businesses failing, which means commercial space available in more of the strip malls and smaller square footage offices and retail spaces because it will be hard for them to start back up. That’s why there’s a tremendous emphasis on trying to stop small businesses from failing because they employ a

large percentage of people working in this country. Q: The new federal aid plan that’s expected to be approved provides for a $1,200 payment to many Americans. Will that help? A: This has been done before. It was done in 2001 and in 2008 and economists writing in economic journals, which are not widely read, show that in both cases, only about 20 percent of that stimulus money was spent on consumer goods and services. About 50 percent was spent paying off bills. About 30 percent held onto the money because they thought things would get even worse than they were. So, the effect of mailing people a thousand dollars may not be that a thousand dollars gets into the spending stream. We can’t say if that will be the case now. Q: And what about all those empty store shelves? A: You’re getting into the world of psychology there. People feel they need to do something to try to control circumstances and they believe they can do this by buying toilet paper. There is no reason to believe there is a shortage, from my understanding. The problem is in the stocking and, to some extent, the distribution. There’s no reason to think there will be physical

damage to production. Panic buying in and of itself is somewhat of a black swan. It was totally unexpected by grocery stores and retail outlets but I guess in hindsight, they should have thought that like in a hurricane, people will empty the shelves. Q: What could recovery look like? A: If we see that, during that second and third quarter, the economy loses jobs, once the turnaround comes, there will probably be a rapid rehiring of all the people laid off. It’s what economists call a V-shaped recession, a sharp dropping down and a strong comeback. For the 2008 recession, it took Arizona about seven to eight years to come back. Here, I would expect that we will see a comeback probably in the early part of 2021, based on history and what we saw in previous sharp downturns. I looked at some numbers for the 1918 flu, and when the recovery got going, it was only a couple of years to get back to the prior level of employment. But all bets are off. We just don’t know. In the long run, we still won’t be able to incorporate this sort of thing. But the hope is, as we did with the financial crisis, after we get out of this, we’ll say, “What could we as a country do better to prepare for this sort of thing?”

Chandler Little Leagues postpone season until May BY ZACH ALVIRA Sports Editor

The coronavirus outbreak has impacted Little League baseball and softball leagues across the East Valley. Little League International announced play would be suspended until at least May 11 due to the outbreak across the United States. Doug Brewster, the president of Chandler National Little League, anticipated a delay to the league. Even before Little League officially announced the postponement, he had already taken precautionary measures into his own hands. “We had already canceled Opening Day ceremonies, but we thought we would be able to play the games,” Brewster said. “I had actually reached out to Little League prior to that to ask them what their stance on it was. When they did respond with something, I felt good about the decision because it gave us a direction and put everyone on the same page.” Brewster has been involved with Chandler National for 20 years, dating back to when his son, who is now 25, started playing. He’s been a member of the board for 18 years and is in his 11th as president. He simply has a love for the game of baseball and the league, especially with coaches who share the same passion. “At least it hasn’t been completely canceled,” said Rich Groppenbacher, one of Chandler National’s coaches. “We are holding out hope at least AllStars will take place this summer. This group of kids last year lost in the state championship. We have a good squad coming back and every 12-year-old’s dream is to make it to Williamsport.” Most parents, like Groppenbacher, have expressed the same optimism regarding the season and eventually being able to play, including Somsak Smith. Smith has coached his son, Karson,

in Chandler National for 6 years now. The duo started in the league together when Karson was 5 years old, playing other sports along the way. The postponement of the season creates a bit of a silver lining for the Smith family, especially given Karson’s involvement in club baseball, too. “My son plays a lot of baseball. Last year the All-Star season didn’t end until late July then we went right into club ball in the fall,” Smith said. “For me, I think it’s a good opportunity for him to step away from baseball and not get burned out.” Across the East Valley, there has been a feeling of disappointment and anguish for players. Phil Cardis, the president of the Red Mountain Little League in Mesa, said this was apparent in those involved in his league. “Initially, I don’t think they were really understanding the depth of everything but now there’s been a lot of empathy for what we are trying to do as a community.” Cardis is in his first year as president of Red Mountain Little League, which

serves as many as 450 players. He has been involved with the league for 3 years, watching both of his kids play. He admitted while he was disappointed with the league’s postponement, he knows it is out of an abundance of caution for both players and parents of the league.

plaints from parents due to the postponement. However, none have come across his email. “I’ve gotten zero complaints, and I normally see all of those come through,” Larson said. “I saw some people criticize Little League International because they announced it would be postponed before schools were even closed. But now, I haven’t heard anything.” Larson became involved with Gilbert National 8 years ago when his son, who is now a junior at Mesquite High School, played. Since then, he has served as president and a member of the board. His family is feeling the impact of school closures, as high school athletics have been put on pause. Still, he can’t help but feel for the players in Gilbert National that are in their last season of eligibility for the Little League World Series. Ashley Jacobson, a parent in the Ahwatukee Little League, said the postponement of the league was disappointing for her three sons, Carter, 11, Lucas, 8, and Miles, 3. They’ve all gone through several changes over the last couple of weeks with schools shutting down and now baseball being postponed. While it’s been hard on all of

They’re kind of taking things day-by-day, I know they miss playing ball. Being “able to sit and watch kids play sports is one of our favorite things to do this time of year. I understand why they did it, but it is still a little disappointing. ” – Ashley Jacobson, Parent Nate Moore, whose son, Dru, plays in Skyline Little League in Mesa, shared the same sentiment. Moore said Dru has taken batting practice in the cage in their backyard along with other drills during the postponement. While they may begin the transition to club ball, they’re still hopeful for the Skyline season to resume. After two consecutive years of lopsided losses, Moore believes the league can compete and even make it past other leagues across the East Valley in postseason tournaments. “We really felt it was our year,” Moore said. “I know Dru is a little disappointed because of that.” Even with the possible resumption of play being in May, there remains a chance to salvage the All-Star season. All-Star selection typically begins midway through the season. Those who make the teams then compete in the state tournament. The Majors All-Star team is able to advance to regional tournaments and beyond. Should they make it, they would end up in South Williamsport, Penn. for the Little League World Series. In Gilbert, the impact of the Little League postponement is being felt across all three of the city’s leagues. Dennis Larson, a longtime board member in the Gilbert National Little League, expected to see some com-

them, it’s been more difficult for Carter, who is in his last season. “They’re kind of taking things dayby-day, I know they miss playing ball,” Jacobson said. “Being able to sit and watch kids play sports is one of our favorite things to do this time of year. I understand why they did it, but it is still a little disappointing.” Several members of the Ahwatukee Little League felt the same way about the postponement early on. But after Ahwatukee Little League officials announced a family member of one of its players had tested positive for COVID-19, those feelings may have changed. “I think this gives another reason that we made a good decision on postponing the league,” said Ray Ng, the president of Ahwatukee Little League. “We want to make sure the community knows this is close to home and it’s not just stuff we read on the news. We should take this seriously for everybody’s safety.” Ng said the decision to push the league back as far as officials did was questioned by parents. But the positive test for the family member shows the virus can be anywhere. “We want to make sure our community is safe and the folks that are of older age that volunteer with the league are all safe,” Ng said. “We are all disappointed, but we want to air on the side of caution here.”

Holocaust survivor’s book applies in these times BY DAVID LEIBOWITZ Columnist

The memoir will feel slight in your hands, only 165 pages long. Even so, for sheer insight per page, Man’s Search For Meaning has no rival among books written in the last 100 years. It is the story of Viktor Frankl, a psychiatrist from Vienna, and how he survived the Nazi death camps. It is a tale of extreme struggle, despair, loss, grief and the many ways in which life can challenge us. In other words, a perfect book for life in the face of COVID-19. I first read Frankl’s book while slogging through the crash of a marriage in my early 30s. The end of that relationship left me bitter, ashamed and feeling toxic on a daily basis. Reading about the victims of Auschwitz and their suffering provided some much-needed perspective.

The Nazis took away everything Frankl valued: His wife, his mother, his father, his brother, his possessions, everything down to the manuscript he considered his life’s work. What they could not steal was what Frankl describes as “the last of the human freedoms – to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.” Over the years, that quote has crossed my mind thousands of times: At the bedside of my mother as she wasted away in the hospital; in the face of professional disappointments and losses that made me angry, frustrated or despondent; while driving along the freeway and getting cut off by a moron; and over this past week, dealing with the fallout of the coronavirus outbreak. There’s liberation in the idea: That ultimately we all get to choose our own attitude, no matter what happens around us or to us, no matter how life tests us. Of course, Frankl wasn’t done dispens-

ing wisdom with one quote, which is why I have read his book at least once a year since the first time I picked it up. He writes eloquently about surviving the icy cold march to a work site by fixing his imagination upon the face of his wife as he stumbled along for miles. Her face, he explains, allowed him to grasp “the greatest secret that human poetry and human thought and belief” hold for us. “The salvation of man,” Frankl writes, “is through love and in love.” Re-reading the book again over the past few days, I found myself thinking, of all things, about a spat I witnessed in the grocery store: A grown man threatening an elderly woman for adding what he believed to be too many cans of soup to her shopping cart. Profanities flew. The old woman gave as good as she got. Eventually they went off in separate directions trailing f-bombs in their wake, but not before the man delivered this pearl.

“B–-h, you’ll be dead soon enough anyways.” Frankl, whose book covers far greater deprivation than a lack of Campbell’s chicken noodle in a can, writes with insight about suffering and how it can lead us to find meaning in our lives. Suffering pushes us to live in one of two ways, he writes. “(We) may remain brave, dignified and unselfish. Or in the bitter fight for self-preservation he may forget his human dignity and become no more than an animal.” For Frankl, finding meaning in life is the ultimate goal. Twice he quotes Nietzsche on the subject: “He who has a ‘why’ to live for can bear almost any ‘how.’” My thought: If the COVID-19 crisis tests us in the most profound ways, you’ll be glad you read the book. If not and I’m just being overly dramatic, you’ll be glad anyways. There are far worse ways to spend a couple hours in quarantine.

Sun Lakes veterans aiding others in pandemic BY GEORGE STAHL Guest Writer

Memorial Day, red paper poppies, and the Jewish War Veterans Copper State Post 619 have been synonymous for the past 25 years. The Sun Lakes JWV Poppy Program raises funds for local veterans’ organizations in the Phoenix area to offset costs for thousands of men, women and their families who served our country in all branches of the military. This year, a new crisis faces our nation in the form of the COVID-19 pandemic. That means that for Post 619, there is a new objective for the volunteers who, conditions permitting and the threat of COVID-19 is subsiding, will be posted at local Frye’s Grocery Stores on Memorial Day weekend to receive your donations. One of the organizations JWV assists is

Veterans First. The group helps vets and their spouses, surviving spouses, veterans with compromised health, disabled veterans, and veterans struggling with families with children. In this time of COVID-19, Veterans First works to provide food for our elderly and vulnerable veterans who are in need of food. Some veterans are not capable of getting to stores or handling other essential activities during this self-isolation period. They need extra help and the people at Veterans First and JWV Post 619 are there for them. Another local group, U.S. Vets-Phoenix, also benefits from money raised by the poppy sales. According to Michelle Jamison, Executive Director of U.S. Vets- Phoenix, “Jewish War Veterans Post 619 has donated

over $42,000 to our organization.” In light of what has been gripping the world since December, Jamison said, “Now, with the COVID-19 pandemic, Post 619 has come through for us again, with a sizeable donation to be used to place homeless vets into motels and supply them with food. We know we can always count on the Jewish War Veterans to come to our rescue.” Bob Brooks, commander of JWV Copper State Post 619, said “As long as the circumstance permits, we will be out in front of three of the local Frye’s Grocery Stores on Memorial Day weekend.” According to Brooks, if the group is not able to poppy at the stores, a contribution would be welcomed. A check can be made out to “Jewish War Veterans Copper State Post 619,” can be mailed to P.O. Box 13113, Sun Lakes, AZ. 85248.

For more information contact Bob Brooks at robtlinda72@gmail.com or 480588-1827. The members at the Post invite you to attend their meetings, resuming in September on the third Sunday of the month, at Sun Lake’s Country Club. These are unprecedented and uncertain times, an overwhelming number of us are in need, and are frightened. A great number of the organizations that JWV Post 619 helps support are on the front lines and in tune with the needs of the vets they help. With your support, vets’ lives will be a little easier, and together we can overcome the odds of COVID-19. For those who served us when it was crucial, your contribution now or anytime will help support a vet thru the JWV Post 619 Poppy Program., our major source of fundraising. We say thank you.

‘Wild and eccentric’ Chandler author pens novel BY SRIANTHI PERERA Contributor

Chandler resident Denita McDade credits herself with having “a wild and eccentric” personality. “I have always considered myself very animated and spontaneous with how I choose to live life,” she said. “It doesn’t take much persuasion to get me to go on adventures, and when telling a story or critiquing a movie I just watched, I am usually the one who has multiple plot twists to add for entertainment,” the mother of two added. McDade’s quirky side has helped her embark on a new adventure with her self-published, young adult thriller novel, “Dissemblance,” via New York-based Austin Macauley Publishers. The book highlights the escapades and corruption of a wealthy family looking to retain its money and power through the generations. “The idea behind this story was triggered by events in the news surrounding a few dirty politicians in control, then incorporating that with some of the dark conspiracy theories that I have heard in the past,” she said. “When you mix politics, money and greed, the story almost writes itself.”

Chandler author Denita McDade’s new novel, “Dissemblance,” centers around the mysterious death of a politician’s son and leads to some explosive twists as his brother looks into the death. (Special to SanTan Sun News)

Set in a small town, “Dissemblance” captures the drama following the unexpected death of a respected local politician’s teen-aged son. As the family and town mourn his

loss, curiosity leads the surviving brother to dig around for answers and find closure, only to uncover a web of lies, scandal and murder from those closest to him.

“I have always loved a good mystery, crime, suspense story, but always hate how the writer holds back in the end. I wanted to write a story that would shock the reader and leave them with their jaw dropped,” McDade said. The author had a love of thrillers instilled in her when young and thanks her father for it. He took her to see the movie “Pulp Fiction” on a daddy/daughter date “when I was far too young, and that genre has been a passion ever since,” she said. “For me, it’s the same adrenaline rush that you would experience on a roller coaster when I am brought to the edge of my seat in suspense,” she added. Now in her mid-30s, McDade has not studied writing formally but been an avid reader. Steven King is her favorite author, but she also reads self-help and inspirational books such as those written by Iyanla Vanzant, Kute Blackson and Pete Adams. Story telling has always been a passion, and she enjoys coming up with and sharing stories verbally or in written form. She received plenty of time to practice when her kids were smaller. See

Chandler woman making masks for workers BY KEVIN REAGAN Staff Writer

A Chandler woman is making protective face masks for workers who must still venture outside their homes and report to work amidst the COVID-19 health crisis. Jessica Srinivasan recently delivered 100 face masks to nutritional workers of the Chandler Unified School District who spend several hours each day hand-delivering food to lines of cars at various campuses. Srinivasan spent up to 15 hours cutting, ironing, and sewing 75 of the masks herself. The rest were stitched together by another volunteer. The Chandler mother said she had initially joined a Facebook group that was dedicated to making masks for local health care workers. A shortage of basic protective gear in hospitals across the country has been forcing community members to fill the deficit themselves by cranking out masks through their sewing machines at home. But Srinivasan realized there were several people not working in hospitals or nursing homes who were also at risk of getting exposed to the COVID-19 virus. Once she discovered the local school district still had employees directly interacting with the public, Srinivasan knew they might benefit from some extra protection. “They probably need it more than

anyone right now,” she said. Srinivasan used to run a children’s boutique and already had a stash of fabrics and supplies saved up by the time her family went into self-isolation a couple weeks ago. Though she’s often having to care for a 6-year-old son with special needs, Srinivasan found the time to begin crafting together masks that would meet the federal government’s strict guidelines.

All her masks consist of two layers of 100-percent cotton fabric and include a pocket where an additional air filter can be placed. Srinivasan is currently in the process of sewing more masks for school nurses who have been assigned to preside over special daycares for the children of health care workers. She’s additionally been tracking people on Facebook who have been posting requests for protective masks and has volunteered to meet their needs. In less than a 48-hour period, Srinivisan

had accumulated orders for more than 60 masks. “This was just my way of giving back,” she said. “I need to do something for this community that means a lot to us and this is the only thing I could think of to do.” A couple months ago, Srinivasan put out a call for help in Chandler for residents to support her family in a contest to win a bike that would accommodate her special-needs son.

Photographer aims for quarantine life in Chandler BY KEVIN REAGAN Staff Writer

A local photographer is looking to document the lives of Chandler and Gilbert residents during the COVID-19 pandemic by shooting them from 10 feet away. Edit Vasadi Denning, a wedding photographer from Gilbert, is offering to take free photos of local couples and families willing to pose either inside or outside of their homes. Denning wants to capture both the mundane and extraordinary moments of everyday life during the global pandemic as residents continue to adjust to a distant, isolated lifestyle. Not only will these photos help to document this unusual event, Denning said, but they can visually remind residents that everyone is making sacrifices to keep COVID-19 from spreading. “I would like people to see that we’re all staying home,” the photographer said. “It’s kind of like an awareness to stay home.” Denning launched the “Stay Home” project last week and plans to publish photos online as she progresses. Though she is not charging subjects to be photographed, Denning is encouraging them to make a donation to Arizona Together, a charitable organization helping to combat impacts of the coronavirus.

Photographer Edit Vasadi Denning is trying to capture life under quarantine in Chandler and Gilbert, such as the photo she took of the little girl on the right. (Special to the SanTan Sun News /Edit Vasadi Denning)

Residents in Chandler, Gilbert and Queen Creek areas can schedule appointments through Denning’s website and the photographer will travel out to their homes. She’s not too picky as to who can request an appointment, but Denning is particularly interested in finding images that can tell an impactful story -- like family members attempting to visit a

quarantined elderly relative. Denning promises to keep a safe distance from her subjects and may even try to photograph families through the windows or doorways of their homes. Denning said she was inspired to start the project after reading about photographers in other states offering a

similar service to their neighbors. Cara Soulia, a photographer based in Massachusetts, began photographing families from their front yards shortly after the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention advised citizens to limit outdoor activities. See

social media, pledging support for the Srinivasan family. By early April, enough donations had been collected for the family to purchase the custom-made bike. Srinivasan said that experience made her feel extremely connected with the community. So now she wants to give back to Chandler at a time when the city’s facing an unprecedented health crisis. “I’m really thankful for everyone in Chandler who came together,” Srinivasan said. She hopes to receive the bike by next month, since her son’s had a difficult time adjusting to quarantine life. He’s nonverbal and nonmobile and depends on his parents to keep him entertained throughout the day. Srinivasan said her family tries to go for walks or drives around Chandler, but her son misses the routine he had grown accustomed to before the pandemic.

PHOTOGRAPHER from page 37

After scrolling through Soulia’s portraits, Denning said she was motivated to recreate the project within her own community -- almost as a way to help her neighbors feel more connected during a turbulent time. These last couple weeks have felt so bizarre not socializing with anyone and staying away from public places, she said, adding, “We talk to people online but it’s just not the same.” Denning is accustomed to documenting happy couples on their wedding day. But she likely won’t have any weddings to photograph in the foreseeable future, pushing her to find some of the lighter moments happening in people’s homes during this pandemic. “It gives me a warm feeling to see families together now that they’re able to spend more time together,” Denning said. But there’s still a haunting element to these pictures, Denning said, because the viewer knows these subjects are almost trapped by circumstances that are out of their control.

stormed around the concept for a few days creating the characters and general direction of the story before starting to write. She let the details of the story develop as she wrote. It took about nine months to write the original manuscript, and another six months to rework it.

“We’re constantly doing stuff to keep him happy and sane,” she added. As for the masks, Srinivasan plans to continue finding special populations in need of protection for however long this pandemic lasts. “I think people are still wanting them, so I’ll keep making them,” she said. Srinivasan’s not the only Chandler resident to devote her time to making masks in recent weeks. Shannon Brannan’s Facebook group, Mask Making for Arizona Health Care Workers, has attracted 680 members within the first two weeks it was created. The Chandler woman said her group’s masks are not exactly intended to replace the masks used to treat COVID-19 patients -- they’re rather meant to supplement the masks used for other medical tasks. “We have nurses right now who are contacting us because they can’t use those masks unless they’re working on a COVID-19 patient,” Brannan told Public News Service. “A lot of the hospitals now have agreed to let them bring their own ready-made masks.”

“It is also a little bit sad in some ways because they’ve been in that environment for weeks now,” she added. Denning grew up in Hungary and immigrated to the United States with her husband 11 years ago. She took up photography to thwart off feelings of loneliness she experienced after relocating to a country that was far away from her friends and family. She discovered she enjoyed capturing images that are frozen in time and sharing them with others. She’s not sure yet what she may do with all her quarantine-focused photos after the COVID-19 outbreak subsides, but she hopes her subjects will get some joy out of them. Denning also hosts a podcast that explores multicultural traditions and relationships. She’s decided to devote the podcast’s next few episodes to local couples who have had their weddings interrupted by COVID-19.

Dance studios adjust to live without a stage BY COTY DOLORES MIRANDA Contributor

The proverbial adage “When life gives you lemons…” has a new ending for some area dance students. It now concludes with “make cupcakes.” Dance Studio 111 students during their self-quarantine are trying their hands at cooking lessons and other online activities created by owner/teacher Kimberly Lewis. And Michele Rubino, founder and owner of the nonprofit Ahwatukee Children’s Theatre is also finding ways to engage her students in both theatre and choir. As her company, like many others, is being battered by closings and stayat-home mandates, ACT is hosting an online telethon today, April 8, to raise funds to help offset losses. The telethon features hourly entertainment from ACT students. “Beginning at 9 a.m., every hour we’ll post a performance by one of our students and people can log on to our Facebook page to watch and then donate to ACT,” said Rubino, who founded ACT in 1998. Rubino’s infectious enthusiasm doesn’t appear to have waned with the pandemic. Ahwatukee Children Theatre productions that were readying for stage have, of course, been postponed. But that hasn’t stopped actors from practicing. Amber Chen and Allie Tam, both 10, were scheduled to alternate the role of Snow White in performances scheduled for April 21 at the Salvation Army Kroc Center. They’ve elected to run lines and practice songs virtually during the quarantine. Chen and Tam admit it’s not ideal, but say it’s better than nothing. “I really miss rehearsal at ACT but being with Amber through Zoom was helpful and reminded me of the fun that I have at rehearsal,” said Allie, a Chandler Traditional Academy Independence fifth grade student. “It was awesome connecting with my friend after not being able to see her.” Amber, a fourth grader at Kyrene Monte Vista Elementary, agreed. “I’ve really missed having play practice at ACT, so getting together with Allie through Zoom was really helpful. Not only do we work on lines and songs so when we finally do get to perform, we’ll be ready,” Amber said, adding: “But just having a friend to chat with who shares my interests has been great.” ACT is also helping their high school and middle school show choirs rehearse by Zoom, leading to some “chaotic sessions,” said Rubino. Meanwhile, Innerlight Dance Studio is also scrambling to keep their students engaged as they shuttered their school at 1442 E. Chandler Blvd., Chan

dler, in March. Lisa Dionisio and Jeannine Taylor purchased the studio in 2015. “In the beginning we did things to keep the kids involved in dance but still using the social distancing guidelines,” said Dionisio. “We made bingo cards and had dance things for them to do like stretch their feet and perform certain exercises. “We also added some stuff to help them help their parents around the house,” she continued. “They all took pictures of their completed cards and shared with each other on social media. “Then after we found out our school was going to be closed all year, we set up online classes with the kids to help keep them involved with the sport they love.” The Innerlight Dance bingo cards, distributed online to 160 students, include the expected like “Stretch for 30 minutes” and “practice a new dance skill you recently learned” to the unexpected like “write a short story” and “clean something for your parents.” When all tasks are fulfilled, and all spaces filled, the students are rewarded with candy. They’ll receive their winnings when school reopens, said Dionisio. Innerlight’s 29 online classes are priced at half the usual live class rate and include instruction in ballet, jazz, contemporary and hip hop. Meanwhile, at Dance Studio 111, Lewis is providing a plethora of online activities on Instagram and YouTube. On April 1, students tuned in to see “Miss Kimberly” and her daughter/sous chef Avery create chicken parmesan. Lewis’ pasta sauce recipe had already See

But perhaps it was the cupcake baking session that attracted a wide range of participants including Ahwatukee brothers Porter and Cooper Gregg, ages 15 and 12 respectively. “I’ve cooked and baked with Ms. Kimberly many times, but never baked cupcakes with her,” said Cooper, with Porter adding he’d made cupcakes prior as well – but never before by following a livestream tutorial. The brothers, along with older sisters Olivia and Bella Gregg, said they’re keeping busy during quarantine, not only with Dance Studio 111 cooking classes but online activities and more. “I’m gaming, taking online classes for Desert Vista and I have a film class so I’m watching movies,” said Porter, a Desert Vista High School sophomore.

How to be outdoors while socially distant BY ANDY LENARTZ

Guest Writer

Achieving needed outdoor time while maintaining social distancing requires adjusting some of our routines. Governor Ducey’s stay-at-home order on March 30 lists outdoor exercise activities as essential, but the order also requires appropriate physical distancing. Numerous people have asked for suggestions on Phoenix trails and parks where one can avoid crowds. As stating specific areas will increase crowding, here are some general recommendations, based on current federal, state and city guidelines. Avoid the main trailheads. The main parking lots and trailheads have been busy and crowded, making social distancing a challenge. This is particularly prevalent in Phoenix, where conflicting federal, state and city guidelines have resulted in inconsistency with regards to parks and facilities being open. As some areas have closed to users, it

is putting increased pressure on the parks which have remained open. At this time, the trails at City of Phoenix Parks, including South Mountain, remain open to users. Some limitations have been implemented, such as restricting access to facilities and amenities and restricting parking at the busier trailheads. Expect further limitations to be implemented in order to reduce crowds at busier areas such as Pima Canyon and Camelback. Use official neighborhood access points instead of the main parking areas and trailhead to provide proper social distancing. The large Phoenix parks all have

numerous officially designated access points beyond the crowded main trails. Online maps of each park identify these locations, which usually have space for only a few vehicles. This provides a natural limit on the number of users. Don’t make your own access points. Park Rangers and staff have enough issues to deal with at the moment. Get outdoors in your neighborhood. Many neighborhood and smaller local parks have plenty of space to spread out, with room for exercise routines, yoga, or simply to enjoy time outside. Taking the activities you are already doing outside can be a great way to relieve stress and get some of that immunity-boosting vitamin D. I find an isolated section of a local park with my family and set up camp chairs, where I work while the kids do their schoolwork, taking frequent soccer breaks. Outdoor picnics are also a great idea, particularly now with our perfect weather and nightly sunset displays. Time your trip. At the moment, area parks have been the most crowded between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. Avoiding this time will cut down on interactions with

other users. Utilize your space. If you have a yard or deck, take your activities outdoors now while you still can. Spend time walking around your neighborhood. Social isolation doesn’t prevent us from talking to neighbors, as long as we maintain some distance. Avoid facilities. Based on current recommendations, avoiding restrooms, ramadas, tables, drinking fountains, and especially playground equipment seems like a reasonable precaution. Plan ahead, bring your own water. Camp chairs are a great way to relax outdoors while avoiding shared facilities. Be adaptable. Before heading out, identify several options for trails and trailheads in the event parking is full or your intended area is crowded. Be prepared to change patterns as state or city guidelines are adjusted. With continuously changing requirements and policies, assume that restrooms, water, and facilities will not be available. Phoenix will begin to heat up soon. So, take advantage, get outside now. Do so safely, be kind to others and appreciate this perfect extended spring.

Ahwatukee native’s band releases new single BY CHRISTINA FUOCO-KARASINSKI Staff Writer

Ahwatukee native and DED vocalist Joe Cotela contends he’s a workaholic – just like his bandmates guitarist David Ludlow, bassist Kyle Koelsch and drummer Matt Reinhard. It’s the Valley hard rock band’s drive that kept it in the forefront of fans’ minds while it relentlessly worked on the follow up to its debut album “Mis-An-Thrope.” On March 12, DED launched its new single “A Mannequin Idol (Lullaby),” packaged with a second song, “Eyes Sewn Shut.” They’re paving a path to a new album later this year, the first release under Sure-tone Records’ renewed, multiple-year deal with ADA Worldwide for exclusive distribution. “We were going back and forth from Vegas to work on this album,” Cotela says. “We’d go out on tour. We toured with In This Moment, went to Europe with Wage War. We played Shiprock and all kinds of things like that. “It was a great, busy time, but there was no stopping for us. We didn’t want to go away just because we were working on the album. We wanted to stay relevant and stay in people’s faces. It was exhausting but worthwhile.” DED has something to say, and the new music, helmed by rock producer Kevin Churko (Five Finger Death Punch, Ozzy Osbourne, Disturbed) is the vehicle for that. “I hope the lyrics connect even more so than the last album,” Cotela said. “That was the big thing with the last record – the people connected with the lyrics. We hope we fulfilled what

Ahwatukee native Joe Cotela got a tad psychedelic for some of the artwork marketing his brand, DED. (Special to the SanTan Sun News)

people want but, not to be selfish, it fulfills what we want. If it connects with fans, too, that’s a win in my opinion. “I’m proud to be making music that hopefully makes people think, pulls them out of ruts or makes them feel empowered, makes them better themselves, or want to start their own band or use their own voice or express themselves in their own way. “It’s a circle, and I know because I got caught in that circle because of the people who were doing it before.” Cotela says “Mis-An-Thrope” came from a place of anger and disappointment with life. This time, he felt compelled to choose his words correctly. “The new music is about clarity through suffering, positivity through negativity, and the frustration that

comes with knowing that everyone can be better than they are, that I can be better than I am, because change starts with yourself,” he explained, adding: “We want people to strive and try and be conscious of the things they consume, the way they act, the things they share and celebrate, and the way they live their life – to understand how that all affects their soul and what their legacy is going to be. And that goes for myself as well.” Churko had a lot to do with that. “Sonically, he’s untouchable,” Cotela said of Churko. “I think he makes enormous-sounding albums. There’s a lot of melody to the album. He’s very good with piano. We fall on the side of unconventional creativity more than music theory. “We don’t know a lot of that stuff.

We just know how to make the sounds that follow the sound. He pushed us to embrace ourselves and our influences and where we’re at right now. He’s just a great person. We had a great time together.” The EP kicks off with Churko’s haunting piano sounds leading to the fury of “A Mannequin Idol.” “It’s not something we would have necessarily done by ourselves,” Cotela contends. “He’s a shredder drummer and pianist and songwriter. We loved how it sounded. It’s so haunting and different for us. We wanted to embrace new ideas.” Those new ideas are shared by DED, who had been on tour with In This Moment, Black Veil Brides and Raven Black. The package is scheduled and comes to Arizona Federal Theatre on April 27, although the virus has clouded any concert dates right now. Now living in New York, Cotela is in a relationship with In This Moment singer Maria Brink. “Hometown shows are special,” said Cotela, calling Arizona Federal Theatre “special” because “that’s a place I’ve gone to see so many shows – the Smashing Pumpkins, Korn, Crosby Stills and Nash. I’ve played most of the venues in Arizona. “Our families and our friends are in (local) bands and it’s a cool camaraderie when we all come home. We’re proud of each other. We’re glowing with that upward trajectory. When I see another band from home at a sold-out show, it’s a win for me, even though it wasn’t me. “I want to see other bands succeed. I’m imagining the sentiment is the same with others.”

Don’t lose sight during the pandemic of other sacrifices BY RABBI DR. IRWIN WIENER Guest Writer

The days are filled with news about the pandemic. The nights are filled with repetition about the pandemic. This is as it should be. However, we need to understand that the world continues to turn. While we are seriously concerned about where to go or when will it end, it is also necessary for us to continue, as best we can, the daily pursuits of our lives. This in no way lessens the severity of what we are experiencing. What we should under as the world turns, we too should turn with it. For example: In about a month, we should commemorate the end of one of the worst nightmares of our history as a nation – the end of the Vietnam War. Forty-five years ago, the debacle initiated by our leaders ended in defeat – a humiliating defeat – the worst in our nation’s history. How many have visited or seen pictures of the Vietnam Memorial? The starkness of it should be a reminder that, in addition to sacrificing 58,220 of our finest, there was a darkness that enveloped us and created an atmosphere

of mistrust that exists to this day. These men and women, we need to remember, will never have families of their own, no children to shower with affection, no stories of growing old, no tomorrows, only yesterdays. The survivors and their families are left with the horrors of emptiness that will never be filled. Each veteran returned to a country that showed contempt for their service and the sacrifices associated with that service. There were no parades, no outpouring of love and affection for those who survived this nightmare. There was a movie, “The Last Full Measure,” in which is depicted the

agony of loss and the frustration of reckless involvement. Limbs were lost, lives shattered, remains still missing to this very day. For what? For whom? These questions and more linger and will never be forgotten by time. Over, and over, I watched the pain of the afflicted. In their faces, I saw the blank stare of men and women who were searching for the key to survival, to find truth in their efforts. Yes, they gave “the last full measure” in attempting to fulfill the obligations they swore to uphold. None of us will truly understand the torment, the agony, the despair felt as their comrades fell at their feet. None of us will truly understand the fear of not knowing whether there would be a tomorrow or wholeness. The blood that was spilled, that now nourishes the earth where they fell, should be a reminder of our shame. Perhaps only eyes washed by tears

can really see clearly the futility of that senseless war. Perhaps the tragedies we encounter are less significant than what happens within us. To me, the greatest sin of this debacle was the attempt to justify the sacrifice. The film I alluded to symbolizes true patriotism, true heroism. Names such as Airman First Class William Pitsenbarger illustrate what is right with our country. Names on the Vietnam Memorial, such as Major Alan Pasco, a childhood friend of mine, are a testament to the bravery and dedication of so many because of love of country, love of humanity, love of life. These two represent all that is good in us, the sacrifices we are willing to make to protect who we are, and yet to be. These two also represent the men and women who serve our country daily through their untiring service. Perhaps the names enshrined will serve as a reminder that the traumas they suffered will never be forgotten. Yes, we are in the midst of a terrible pandemic, and yes, we need to be concerned about survival today. This does not negate the need to remember all the sacrifices made over the course of our history as a nation – especially the ugliness that ended 45 years ago. - Rabbi Irwin Wiener is spiritual leader of the Sun Lakes Jewish Congregation.

Hiking along a trail and finding God along the way BY LYNNE HARTKE Guest Writer

The surrounding hills on South Mountain are alive with flowers. The yellow brittlebush is the most prominent, covering the slopes with long-stemmed blooms shooting out from a base of silver-green leaves. Joining the yellow abundance, is the pale violet of desert lavender, the soft orange of the globemallow, the tiny white rock daisies, and the purple stalks of lupine. It is easy for my mutt, Mollie, and I to practice social distancing on a day when the trails were still open. After walking three miles, we are passed by two mountain bikers and a pair of joggers. I hear snatches of conversations as they speed by. Of school closures. Of

business interruptions. Of the virus on all our minds. Their voices echo in the quiet morning until they are out of

range and out of sight. A quail standing sentry on a boulder outcropping cries out in the silence. “Where are you?” Where are you?” His mate answers from under a mesquite tree in a timeless call-and-response ritual. “Here I am. Here I am.” My phone pings with reception when we reach the saddle, a flat section between peaks. A family member had sent out a group text, checking in on everyone, followed by a flurry of responses. “How is everyone doing?” “I’m working from home today.”

“The kids are driving me crazy.” “Where can I buy flour?” We join in the call and response that is happening all over the world as we gather our friends and family closer through phone calls, emails, and text messages, a way to check in on those who matter as we take our turns standing sentry. I head up the ridgeline, stopping to take photographs. I usually take closeups of the flowers, but today my heart is hungry for vistas larger than myself. I shoot frame after frame of the surrounding peaks, towering above the saguaros and ocotillo. “I lift up my eyes to the mountains – where does my help come from?” the psalmist wrote in Psalm 121:1(NIV). He answered in the next verse, “My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.” “Where are you?” My soul echoes the psalmist’s question. The sun bursts out from the clouds, shooting out light beams on the wildflowers and cactus covering the mountain slopes. The places small and frightened inside me expand and make room for hope. The truth reverberates in the stillness. “Here I am. Here I am.” - Lynne Hartke is the author of Underz a Desert Sky and the wife of pastor and Chandler Mayor Kevin Hartke.

Lasagna soup a one-pot wonder of deliciousness We all need a little comfort right now, or at least some delicious comfort food. Allow me to introduce you to my new favorite dish. If you love lasagna, you’re going to absolutely be giddy over making this simple soup that tastes exactly like lasagna. I can’t stop making it for friends and

Ingredients: 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 3 cloves of garlic, minced 1 sweet yellow onion, chopped fine 1 ½ lbs ground turkey, beef or Italian sausage (I prefer half beef or turkey with half sausage) 1 (24oz) jar marinara sauce (prefer Rao’s Tomato Basil) 1 (15oz) can diced tomatoes, or half a pint of fresh cherry tomatoes, chopped

family, and I sort of get a kick out of watching them come back for seconds – and thirds – and then holding their tummy because they’ve eaten too much. Be prepared for the same reaction. This lasagna soup is just scrumptious. I often hear that folks love lasagna but only order it in restaurants because it’s

rather tedious to assemble. With lasagna soup, it’s a one-pot wonder of deliciousness without the stress. In fact, you don’t even cook the lasagna noodles ahead of time. You simply throw the raw noodles into the soup. It’s just as delicious whether you use turkey, beef, Italian pork sausage or a combination of all three.

½ cup chopped basil, plus more for topping 1 teaspoon oregano, dried or fresh 4 cups chicken broth 1 cup water 1 cup heavy cream 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon pepper 8 ounces lasagna noodles, broken into pieces (about 10 noodles) 1 cup whole milk Ricotta

1 cup shredded mozzarella 1 cup parmesan cheese, plus more for topping Directions: In a pot, heat the olive oil and sauté the garlic and onion until soft and translucent. Add the turkey, beef or sausage and cook until browned. Add the marinara sauce, diced tomatoes, chopped basil, oregano, chicken broth, 1 cup of water, heavy cream, salt and pepper. Simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring often. Break the lasagna noodles into bite-sized

Watch my how-to video: jandatri.com/recipe/lasagne-soup.

One of the things that really makes it taste like lasagna is the ricotta mixture that you dollop on top of the soup when you plate it. If you like Italian cuisine, if you like easy, if you like to please people with a hearty dish that they will adore, then I hope you make lasagna soup soon.

pieces, (about 1-2 inches pieces) and add them to the pot. Stir occasionally until the noodles are tender. Do not overcook the noodles. They should be al dente, or a bit firm but cooked through. Meanwhile, in a bowl, combine the ricotta, shredded mozzarella and parmesan cheese, mixing to combine. When the soup is done, spoon it into a bowl, top with a big dollop of the ricotta mixture and sprinkle with parmesan and fresh basil. Buon appetito!
