Council seeks pay raise, new primary election date

BY CONNOR DZIAWURA

Glendale Star Managing Editor

The Glendale City Council recently held a special meeting to refer two measures to the ballot for the November special election.

But several key councilmembers were absent from the discussion.

On Tuesday, November 5, Glendale voters will decide if mayoral and council salaries should be increased as well as if the city should conform with the state’s recent change to primary election dates.

Currently, Mayor Jerry Weiers’ salary is $48,000, while councilmembers’ salaries are $34,000.

If voters approve the raises, on January 1 Weiers’ salary will increase to $68,490 and councilmembers to $52,685. These would be

the first pay increases for Glendale’s mayor and council since 2006.

In comparison, according to council compensation commission research, Peoria annually pays its mayor $32,904 and its council $21,936. Elsewhere in the West Valley, the Surprise mayor is paid $46,000 and council $27,000.

Over in the East Valley, Mesa’s mayor annually makes $73,545 and council $40,582; Tempe’s mayor $59,472 and council $29,737; Chandler’s mayor $55,916 and council $32,743; and Gilbert’s mayor $43,631 and council $24,239.

The Phoenix mayor’s salary is the highest, at $87,998, while councilmembers receive $61,599. And in Scottsdale, the mayor is annually paid $36,000 and councilmembers

$18,000.

At the special meeting, Diane McCarthy, the Glendale council compensation commission’s chairwoman, said, “We strongly believe this is a fair and equitable recommendation based on the median salary for all Glendale employees.”

According to the Resolution No. R19-81 document, the formula established by the city council compensation commission puts councilmembers’ salaries at 1% less than the median salary of city employees. And the mayor’s salary will be 30% greater than that of councilmembers. Salaries will change along with city employee compensation, and will be reviewed annually by either the city manager or a designee to ensure compliance.

Chris DeJong may have missed the qualifying for the U.S. swim team in the 2004 and 2008 Olympics by a few seconds, but so far, he’s not missing out on business.

The Michigan native started a swim school concept in the Midwest that not only is unique in its target market but also for what it does for dying strip malls.

Now, he’s bringing his franchise to Arizona — with an eye on Litchfield Park and Arrowhead Ranch as two of the ideal sites for his Big Blue Swim School.

With a meeting for investors at print time scheduled in Phoenix on July 23, DeJong has identified about a dozen Valley communities for his franchise, which started in 2012 and has recently opened its fifth Illinois location.

As a student at the University of Michigan, DeJong, now 35, was a competitive swimmer and ranked among the top five in the world along with Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps. In fact, he and Phelps had the same coach.

While he lost to Phelps for a qualifying spot on the 2008 U.S. team by a mere 3/10ths of a second, he couldn’t stay out of the water.

“After that, my swimming career was over and I just started teaching,” said DeJong, who describes himself as someone who was always around water since his dad ran a marina on the shores of Lake Michigan.

“It was just kind of a reflex and a way to make ends meet when I realized that it was a really rewarding way to make a living,” he said.

So, out of a rented commercial pool in 2009, he started offering swimming lessons, targeting only children 6 months old to age 12.

“I loved it and got to share my pas-

sion with young kids,” said the father of two, 10 months and 3 years old.

And so Big Blue Swim School was born, first at a commercial pool he rented until he got together the money he needed to gut an abandoned supermarket and create his first official school.

Big Blue’s business model offers new life for dying strip malls abandoned by a big-box anchor, DeJong said.

Though he stressed that “our primary focus as a brand is to be in the path of least resistance for the consumer.”

That means being located in a community with families with young children “who know the importance of learning how to swim” and operating in a building “where it’s easiest for them to come and have some lessons.”

The number of young families is what guided DeJong in targeting Litchfield Park and Arrowhead as two of the prime locations for a Big Blue Swim School.

“Institutional landlords or the big landlords that own a lot of these shopping centers love our concept,” he said.

“We’re bringing families to the shopping center to do their swim lessons.

And then ultimately after their swim lesson, they’re hungry. So, they’ll go grab lunch and then usually run another errand within that same shopping center.

“Hard-goods retail is getting hit the hardest with Amazon and the like and so we’re able to backfill those spaces, and landlords really get excited about us because we bring 1,700 to 2,000 families a week to the shopping center.”

“That being said, we do have standalone locations,” he added, noting one school is located in an old car dealership.

As far as teaching is concerned, Big Blue’s concept aims to fill what DeJong sees as a hole in the billion-dollar swim-lesson industry.

With four-foot-deep pools where the water is kept at a 90-degree temperature, Big Blue relies on technology and full-time teachers to ensure that students learn to swim — and that their

July 25, 2019 parents can see their progress.

Open only in the evenings and weekends, Big Blue offers continuous weekly lessons that give parents the flexibility to start and stop lessons whenever they choose.

“We track each child’s progress every time they swim with us, so you’ll see new skills gained at every lesson,” he said, explaining how the company developed a software platform, called Lesson Buddy, that virtually manages the entire operation and provides a mobile app so parents can chart their child’s progress at will and schedule or cancel a lesson.

By employing only full-time instructors — and giving them a career path aimed at keeping them — DeJong said Big Blue also benefits from his own love affair with swimming.

“I bring a lot of high-level swimming knowledge to a curriculum that is designed to help kids learn how to swim faster,” he said. “I don’t mean that they learn how to swim across the pool faster. I mean they learn to swim in a shorter amount of time because we think our curriculum is the best out there. It touches on all different learning styles, so whether you’re an auditory or visual or kinesthetic learner, we make sure that every little skill that we teach addresses the needs of those different learning styles.

“And then we require mastery of every step in our curriculum before kids move on to the next. What that means is you’re not going to have an instructor just reciting a tired curriculum and hoping that some of it is absorbed by the kid. We actually call our instructors teachers because they’re trying to get mastery of the skill before they have that kid move on to the next skill. Then we track that progress on a daily basis and return that data back to parents on the phone.”

DeJong said he is optimistic about the prospects offered in Arizona.

He declined to discuss potential sites, but said he is looking forward to talking with investors in Phoenix.

Commission member John Crow, who lives in the Sahuaro District, said, “One of our objectives was to look at the current compensation and look at our plan and process as, sort of three key words, we wanted it to be consistent, we wanted it to be efficient and we wanted it to be fair. And when we looked at the way compensation had previously been structured, we found that it had not been changed for 13 years, so it was inconsistent.”

Council also discussed a change to primary election dates. In May the state changed the primary election date to the first Tuesday in August, beginning next year. Glendale is looking to continuously conform to this date and any future changes, according to City Clerk Julie K. Bower.

“I think this is really the catalyst to me that’s so critically important in why we do this. We don’t want to be opposing or conflicting with state law,” Weiers explained.

By conforming, he said, the possibility would be eliminated of a candidate challenging election results due to confusion over differences between state and municipal election dates.

As council is on recess until August, several councilmembers were notably absent at the special meeting: Jamie Aldama (Ocotillo District), Bart Turner (Barrel District) and Lauren Tolmachoff (Cholla District). Tolmachoff’s absence had been excused, Weiers said.

Only Weiers, Ian Hugh (Cactus District), Ray Malnar (Sahuaro District) and Vice Mayor Joyce Clark (Yucca District) were present.

But Bower said the special meeting couldn’t have been held later if they were to get the questions on the ballot in time.

Otherwise, the proposals would have been held until the spring election.

In addition to voting unanimously to send the two proposals to the ballot, the mayor and three present councilmembers approved a resolution to hold the November election with Maricopa County.

According to the council agenda packet, election costs could range from $127,582 to $255,165. Required publicity pamphlets could cost between $12,000 and $15,000.

This being a nonelection year, however, funds have yet to be allocated for the election, Bower said. That will require further council action.

More details were not specified, and as of print, the city has not told The Glendale Star from where the funding could come or when a recommendation will be made to council.

Local nonprofit in need of volunteers this summer

BY GLENDALE STAR STAFF Many isolated elders and homebound adults are without vital services such as transportation to doctor’s appointments and trips to the grocery store this summer.

Currently, there are 74 homebound adults waiting to be matched with volunteers through Duet: Partners in Health & Aging.

These free-of-charge services include help with grocery shopping, transportation to medical appointments, providing friendly visits, minor home repairs, assistance with basic paperwork and more.

“The summer has always been a desperate time for us to retain the volunteers that we have but also recruit new volunteers to help fill in the gap of volunteers who are out of town,” said Sue Reckinger, Duet’s senior director of volunteer services.

“Our highest need is volunteers who can take homebound adults to their medical appointments and trips to the

grocery store. Volunteers set their own hours and we match them with homebound adults close to them, so it’s as flexible and convenient as possible.”

Currently, the highest need locations for volunteers are south Scottsdale (85251 ZIP code) and south Glendale (85301 ZIP code).

Through volunteers, Duet is able to provide these services free of charge to help Valley seniors and homebound adults live as independently as possible. To become a volunteer with Duet, the first step is to attend an orientation.

Upcoming orientations include: 5 to 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, August 14, Duet, 10000 N. 31st Avenue, Suite D200, Phoenix 9 to 11:30 a.m. Saturday, September 21, Orangewood Presbyterian Church, 7321 N. 10th Street, Phoenix To sign up for a volunteer orientation, visit duetaz.org/volunteer, e-mail volunteer@duetaz.org or call 602-2745022.

Marriott’s Aloft hotel opens near Westgate

BY CONNOR DZIAWURA

Glendale Star Managing Editor

The newest hotel to hit Glendale places an emphasis on togetherness.

Keeping with that theme, the four-story, 100-room Aloft boasts a pool, bar and lounge area, along with plenty of seating and billiards. Going even further, Aloft plans to host live music at least once a month.

“One thing that we really focus on here at this property is really getting people out of their rooms and enjoying spending time with each other and not sitting there watching TV; really interacting,” said Jennie Holman, sales manager for Marriott’s new Aloft hotel, which opened recently near Westgate.

But for those who maybe need a little peace and quiet, there are meeting areas described by Holman as “semi-sound proof.”

“If you want to have a private conversation or if you’re working on your laptop in the lobby, they’re awesome areas to hang out and spend time in there,” she said.

For even more seclusion, the hotel has

100 rooms, 62 of which are king-size and 38 queen.

“Our room design is very modern,” Holman described. “We do just have the two different room types — the ones that have one king bed in them, and then the ones that have the two queen beds

in them. One thing that is super cool is even if you’re in the double room it will be queen-size beds and they won’t be smaller than that.”

And inside these rooms, some of the amenities guests will find include walk-in showers with rainfall showerheads (though a few rooms have bathtubs), Bluetooth-capable Marshall speakers, Wi-Fi, smart televisions and work nooks, among other features. Rooms are protected by key-

less entry.

“The overall design of the rooms themselves is very spacious, so it gives you the feel of a loft apartment in a downtown area. The windows themselves are very tall, and we have a shade that can either be opened up all the way

so you get lots of light and it feels very open, or they are actual blackout shades, so they will close all the way down. So, if you need to sleep in, you can keep it very dark in the room.

“Another thing that is really cool with our guest rooms is that all of them have very up-to-date technical amenities.

So, our smart TV does have access to Netflix, Hulu, any of your streaming services. We also have some very cool Marshall-brand speakers in the room that are Bluetooth, or we do actually have cords where you can hook it up to your phone via a phone jack so you can listen to your own music in the room.”

When the time comes to eat, guests can “Re:Fuel.” Holman called this feature perfect for those looking to grab something on the go.

“That’s going to be more of our breakfast option as well as snacks and drinks and stuff like that,” she explained of the Re:Fuel area. “So, the way that our breakfast works here is going to be everything comes in our ‘pot.’ There are different themed (to-go) pots — some of SEE ALOFT PAGE 7

Missing New Mexico man’s credit cards used in Glendale

BY CONNOR DZIAWURA

Glendale Star Managing Editor

A New Mexico man disappeared while traveling to Peoria for a job, and authorities are now searching for two men who used the missing man’s credit cards at a Home Depot in Glendale.

Craig Cavanaugh, 44, was last seen in Payson on July 4, according to Farmington, New Mexico, police.

Department spokeswoman Georgette Allen told The Glendale Star the 2012 Toyota Tacoma Cavanaugh had been driving, however, was found on July 14, a little over a week after his disappearance. She would not say where.

And yet, weeks later, Cavanaugh’s location is still a mystery.

A Facebook page, Help Us Find Craig Cavanaugh, has been set up find his whereabouts.

According to the page, Cavanaugh’s iPhone was last traced to the Mazatzal Hotel and Casino parking lot in Payson at 1:39 p.m. July 4. And according to police, a witness reported having seen Cavanaugh there that afternoon, though no formal evidence supports the claim.

“He was supposed to be home Thursday night/early Friday morning to leave for a Fourth of July vacation for the weekend.”

Instead, according to Allen, two men used Cavanaugh’s credit cards to purchase numerous items at several Valley stores in the days following his disappearance.

“The individuals in the photos used Mr. Cavanaugh’s credits cards at a Home Depot and Dillard’s in Glendale,

and attempted to use them at a Maverik in Payson and a QuikTrip in Peoria,” she said.

All the charges occurred between July 5 and July 7, added Nicole Brown, another spokeswoman for the Farmington Police Department.

Now, a Farmington detective is seeking the public’s assistance in identifying the two men who used Cavanaugh’s credit cards as well as finding the missing man’s whereabouts, police said.

The detective is working with authorities in Payson, Glendale and Phoenix.

According to police, a post regarding the two men and the credit cards has been shared more than 30,000 times

and has reached 1.6 million people.

And following the viral social media post, the detective received tips in the Farmington area as well as in Arizona.

As of print, however, the men have not been located or their identities revealed. If they are located, Farmington police said they will not charge them for fraud due to the crossing of jurisdictions.

Police are interested in uncovering more information on Cavanaugh’s whereabouts, however.

“FPD takes missing persons cases very seriously,” Farmington Police Deputy Chief Jessica Tyler said. “Due to the facts of the case as they stand, we are concerned for Mr. Cavanaugh’s safety. We are working diligently with the other agencies to find him.”

Police identified Cavanaugh as having hazel eyes and brown hair. He is 5-foot-11-inches and weighs 220 pounds.

“Basically it’s a waiting game,” a moderator for Help Us Find Craig Cavanaugh posted on July 16. “We wish we had more news. There are so many unanswered questions but we are leaving this in law enforcements (sic) hands.”

Anyone who believes they know either of the men or has information on Cavanaugh’s disappearance is asked to contact Farmington Police Department Detective Kenneth Smith at 505-5991005 or the FPD Detective Tip Hotline at 505-599-1068.

Some public restrooms closed due to illegal activity, damage

BY GLENDALE STAR STAFF Public restrooms at Murphy Park and in the Bank of America building were recently closed.

The city cited increased incidence of damage and growing health and safety concerns due to illegal activity as factors for the closure.

Despite the closure, the city plans to open Murphy Park restrooms during special events.

In a statement, officials said, “The city recognizes that public restrooms serve

as an amenity, not only for residents and visitors but for the downtown merchants who do not have public restroom facilities for their customers.”

Residents and the public are now directed to use restrooms inside City Hall and inside the Velma Teague Library during normal operating hours.

“The Glendale Police Department will work to mitigate potential issues that may occur due to the displacement of those who were inappropriately using the facilities,” the statement continued.

Founded by former Mayo Clinic physicians, AZCDH is a highly-dynamic gastroenterology group providing a full spectrum of care for more than 52,000 outpatient clinical cases per year across its 11 practice locations and two ambulatory surgery centers — spanning Phoenix, Glendale, Scottsdale, Avondale, Gilbert, Mesa, Maricopa and Queen Creek.

“As Arizona Centers for Digestive Health continues to grow, we felt the need to join a like-minded partner to help us expand access to our services to Phoenix patients,” said James Bachman, CEO of AZCDH. “In addition, we can now bring our high-quality, lowcost care into underserved areas outside of the Phoenix area and throughout the state, where patients have the most need for this level of expert care.”

Currently, AZDCH employs 17 fellowship-trained, board-certified physicians and 11 physician assistants and nurse practitioners. AZCDH is the only gastroenterology group in Arizona with an advanced gastroenterology fellowship program and the first group in the United States to perform ambulatory surgery center-based advanced therapeutic procedures, such as endoscopic ultrasounds.

AZCDH operates from a single platform to facilitate communications between physicians and referring providers. Its full continuum of care includes the 11 practices and two state-of-theart ambulatory surgery centers — allowing patients to receive best-in-class gastrointestinal care through one integrated network. AZCDH subspecialty expertise includes areas such as Barrett’s esophagus, inflammatory bowel disease, liver disease, pancreatic-biliary disorders and endoscopic ultrasound, which benefits patients, as these services are all under one roof instead of needing to seek additional care from multiple providers.

“We look forward to the great work we can accomplish together through our partnership with Arizona Centers for Digestive Health,” said Lew Little, CEO of Covenant Surgical Partners.

“Their integrated care model represents the future for Covenant.”

Due to its operational expertise and access to capital, Covenant’s partnership will provide AZCDH with the opportunity to expand its network across the state, advance its clinical quality and technology, and position the company for success for years to come.

As the key gastrointestinal partner for multiple hospitals and health systems across the region, AZCDH leads the market with its innovative, cost-effective gastrointestinal care. Covenant’s partnership will help AZCDH achieve its long-term growth goals and expand upon its community partnerships.

Company donates gas system to continuing education organization

BY GLENDALE STAR STAFF When Forrest Anderson Plumbing, Heating and Air Conditioning Inc., a family-owned business in the Phoenix area since 1961, was asked to remove a medical gas system from a commercial building, it chose to donate it to P.I.P.E. industries for training purposes.

Highlighting a commitment to training and development, the company’s donation will help future industry experts learn how to manage similar situations and contracts.

Forrest Anderson was contracted to remove an oxygen gas manifold from a commercial property, as the new owners were not allowed to use it.

Upon removing the box, piping, thermostats and pressure gauges, the team mounted it on a 4-by-8 piece of plywood to be used by P.I.P.E. industries for medical gas piping classes.

“When I went through the training, they didn’t always have these components on hand,” explained Mark Stevens of Forrest Anderson.

“They would just pull pieces out of a box, so newer technicians might not understand how it was installed. By

“This is an exciting industry with numerous opportunities for career development once individuals are trained and experienced.

“To continue to attract smart and ambitious people to the industry, we hope to support their education with donations like this medical gas system.”

The Piping Industry Progress and Education Trust Fund (P.I.P.E.) is a nonprofit 501-C5 established in 1954.

Leibo: What did we do to deserve this bunch?

BY DAVID LEIBOWITZ Glendale Star Columnist

In the ongoing uncivil war between President Donald Trump and Democrat congresswomen like Reps. Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar, Ayanna Pressley and Rashida Tlaib, I choose to side with … … neither side.

This choice may seem unfashionable in 2019, because we’re all supposed to have picked a squad by now and adorned ourselves in either red #MAGA hats or #ImpeachTrump T-shirts.

But I’ve never been much of a joiner.

I quit Boy Scouts at age 10, didn’t pledge a fraternity in college and have been a registered political independent for the better part of the last 25 years.

Plus, I subscribe to the notion that it is

indeed possible to judge people by the company they keep.

Let me be perfectly clear: In no way, shape or form do any of these combatants speak for me on the subject of how we might repair what currently ails America. They don’t have my back and I don’t have theirs.

Let’s take Trump first, since he’s the president of the United States, though you’d never know it by his demeanor, word choice or treatment of those who disagree with him.

Was Trump’s Twitter attack suggesting that “The Squad” members “go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came” a racist statement?

Of course. It was also abysmally stupid — three of the four targets are American-born — and un-American.

I mean, we’ve come a long way from the inscription on the Statue of Liberty — “Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free …” — to chants of “Send her back” filling the air at Trump’s July 17 rally in North Carolina.

So no, Trump doesn’t speak for me.

On the other hand, neither do progressive Democrats intent on pushing the country as far to the socialist left as possible.

Contrary to Rep. Ocasio-Cortez, I don’t believe we have a “manufactured crisis” at the Mexico-U.S border. And yes, Rep. Omar has herself wandered into Trump territory, tweeting, “Israel has hypnotized the world, may Allah awaken the people and help them see the evil doings of Israel.”

A month ago, I tried watching the Democrat debate, a project that lasted about 30 minutes.

Part of my lack of interest had to do with watching 20 people trying to have a conversation, but most of it had to do with moments like Joe Biden discussing wind farms and Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders and multiple others nattering on about “free college” and free everything else.

While I find Trump’s personality noxious, watching these 20 felt like attending

a faculty brunch at the nation’s most politically correct community college.

Couple them with the anti-American sentiment of The Squad and no, I won’t be joining that movement either.

Nor am I alone in wanting to be alone.

The most recent Gallup poll saw 27% of Americans call themselves Democrats and 26% identify as Republicans. Meanwhile, 46% chose independence of either party.

Back in the day, political pundits would have used that number to suggest the path to the White House demanded a moderate tack.

Not anymore.

Now the goal in advance of the 2020 election is clearly to inflame the base while depressing everyone else.

Heading into next year, expect more hate from Trump and more anti-Trump hate and leftward policy shifts from the Democrats. Meanwhile, the rest of us get to stand around wondering if anyone actually cares about solving the problems we face as a nation.

I’ve heard it said that countries get the leaders they deserve. If that’s true, I have to wonder what hellish crime America committed to merit this feckless bunch.

Clean elections create broader participation, transparency

BY GALEN PATON Guest Columnist

Hundreds of millions of dollars are spent on political campaigns, and the 2020 elections will be no different.

Many of these dollars are from organized donors assembled as countless political action committees or PACS — private corporations and unions. It can be overwhelming to think about running for office when you consider the amount of money in politics.

However, Arizona is one of 14 states in the nation where voters established an option for individuals to run for statewide and legislative office with

public monies. It was passed by voters to diminish the influence of special interest money by breaking the link between fundraising and governing that gives rise to corruption or its appearance, and to broaden the pool of candidates. A recent example of a clean elections candidate is Arizona’s superintendent of public instruction, who recently opined that her election was, in part, made possible because of the Citizens Clean Elections Act. Since its inception, candidates from all political parties have chosen to run clean for state offices

Rules of forcing entry You will be pleased to learn that the law limits your liability if you break a window on a car to rescue a child or a pet. However, you must follow the rules very closely for this protection.

The law basically says a person can use reasonable force to enter a locked and unattended motor vehicle to remove a minor or a domestic animal and is not liable for damages in a civil action if all of the following apply: 1. The person believes in good faith that the minor or the animal is in imminent danger of suffering physical injury or death unless they are removed from the motor vehicle. It is interesting to note that there is no mention of a minimum outside temperature. 2. The person determines that the vehicle is locked or there is no other way of opening the vehicle. As a police officer, I would frequently go to these calls only to find that the doors on the other side of the car were unlocked. Be sure to check all options before forcing entry.

3. You must contact the police, emergency medical or animal control before entering a motor vehicle. The operative word here is “before” you force entry.

4. You only use the amount of force that is necessary to gain access. So, don’t pull off a door with your truck

LESSONS FROM THE BENCH Judge Donald Watts Glendale Star Columnist

such as governor, secretary of state, attorney general as well as the Legislature. The act has fulfilled its intention: Broader participation and transparency in elections. Moreover, candidates who run with clean elections funding aren’t raising money from the same people they regulate.

Come August 1, candidates who have chosen to run as a clean elections candidate in the 2020 election will begin soliciting $5 qualifying contributions from registered voters in their districts so they can qualify for public funding and not rely on special interest money. There is 100% transparency of clean candidates’ campaign monies, as every single clean candidate is audit-

ed by the commission to ensure public funds are spent in compliance with the act.

Clearly, the Citizens Clean Elections Act is working. If you want to run for office, know that in Arizona, you can.

Public office is attainable. Learn more about running as a clean candidate by visiting azcleanelections.gov/run-foroffice/how-clean-funding-works.

Commissioner Galen Paton was appointed by Gov. Doug Ducey to the Citizens Clean Elections Commission. The commissioner had a long and rewarding career coaching high school and college softball, volleyball and basketball teams in the Southwest. He is a current member of the Realty Executives Tucson Elite group.

winch when all you had to do is break the window. 5. If you do use force to gain entry to a vehicle, you must stay with the minor or the animal until first responders arrive. Lastly, if you fail to do any part of this law you could be held liable for the damages.

When I was a police officer I responded to hundreds of calls of children or animals locked in the car. In every single case I was able to find a way to break into the car without damaging it or the owner returned in just a few minutes. I would respectfully recommend that you use caution and ensure you are complying with the statute before you force entry to a vehicle.

Lesson from the bench: Never ever, ever leave your children or pets in a vehicle unattended, especially during the summer months; they are simply too precious to be left alone.

Glendale CC partners with local business

BY GLENDALE STAR STAFF Glendale Community College, part of the Maricopa County Community College District, recently launched a program that provides a pathway to a fully fund college degrees for employees of local businesses.

GCC works with businesses to carefully craft a program to fit the needs of their employees. For instance, at Discover, employees can earn an organizational leadership certificate and an associate’s degree in organizational management from GCC. Discover Financial Services has arranged for professors to hold classes on site during the workday, and funds 100% of the tuition costs.

“At Glendale Community College, we are always looking at new innovative ways to deliver education to our unique and diverse community members,” said Kendra Swenson, business and IT faculty. “We’re adapting to when and how students learn, allowing for a more flexible way for students to achieve success both academically and in the workforce.

Dr. Teresa Leyba Ruiz, president, added, “Glendale Community College is committed to partnering with organizations that expand access to higher education and help more people gain the skills they need to advance in their lives.

We’re meeting students where they are, in the workplace, and contributing to the overall success of our community and economy.”

This program expands access to higher education and provides better opportunities to succeed in the workforce.

“There is no way I could go back to school without this program,” said Bryanna Gelner, a 10-year Discover employee. “I have a young son and live far away so juggling work, caring for my child and the drive time to GCC would be impossible. Through this program, I can take classes and study during work hours, plus there is tutoring available right after work from my peers and co-workers, which helps me branch out and connect with people in other departments.”

Cactus grad part of Women’s National Soccer Team champions

BY ERIC NEWMAN

Glendale Star Staff Writer

The dominating performance at the international stage U.S. Women’s National Soccer Team in the 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup had a bit of local flare to it.

Among those celebrating the hoisting of the country’s fourth trophy after a 2-0 win over the Netherlands on July 7 was Jessica McDonald, an Arizona native who graduated from Cactus High School over a decade ago. She, and several other members of the National Team, took part in several team celebrations before returning to the North Carolina Courage, her full-time club team in the NWSL. McDonald, who graduated from Cactus in 2006 and played several sports for the Cobras — she was a member of the 2004 and 2006 state championship basketball teams and remains one of the top performers at track and field beside her soccer excellence — was one of the oldest players on the National Team. She reflected on her experience at the World Cup, and said the pride runs even further than just representing Arizona and the United States.

“I’m out here not just representing the state I am from, not just my family name, not just the United States, but all the moms out there,” McDonald told Yahoo! Sports. “That’s super cool for me.”

Representing success for mothers was high on McDonald’s priority list

when it came to her time with the USWNT. She was the only mother on the roster, Her son, Jeremiah, who was born in 2012, spent time celebrating the championship with her on the field, making confetti angels on the ground.

“He doesn’t fully understand, but at least he’s an age right now where he’s actually going to remember this,” McDonald told The Associated Press.

“He’s going to look back and be like, ‘Wow, I was there. Wow, my mom is actually cool — like she said.’”

Now back with her team, McDonald will have to reintegrate herself with the Courage’s lineup, which has found success even without some of its top players during the World Cup. However, she fits back into the team.

Courage coach Paul Riley told the News and Observer, a local Carolina publication, that the returning players, including McDonald, will hopefully increase interest around the league and team and provide excellent experience and lessons for the rest of the women on the roster. “(The World Cup) has been massive for us and the league,” Riley said.

“They have to have that quality that they showed in France here now, and that goes for every player that’s in the league.”

Julie Ertz, a Mesa resident and graduate of Dobson High, was also a key contributor on the 2019 championship team.

First female sea lion born at Shipwreck Cove

BY GLENDALE STAR STAFF Wildlife World Zoo, Aquarium & Safari Park recently announced the birth of the first female sea lion pup at Shipwreck Cove.

The newborn’s animal care team named her Makara, which means “little sea creature” in Hindi. With her mom by her side, Makara is quite the adventurer and explores everything in her new world.

“She has already earned a special place in all of our hearts, and we are beyond thrilled for the public to get to know this amazing pup,” said Kate Conely, sea lion manager at Wildlife World.

Makara is the third pup to be born as a result of Wildlife World’s successful sea lion breeding program.

Makara, or “Little Mak” as she has been nicknamed by her trainers, has spent much of her time in the zoo’s off-exhibit pup nursery getting acclimated to water and preparing to begin swim lessons. The art of swimming is not a skill sea lions are born with.

After lots of water play using kiddie pools, the youngster is ready to graduate to swim lessons in the large public viewing pools. Markara’s lessons will

Like all marine mammals, sea lions are protected by the landmark legislation known as the Marine Mammal Protection Act (MMPA), first passed in 1972. The MMPA makes it illegal to hunt or harass any marine mammal species found in U.S. waters. Sea lions, like many marine animals, face an uncertain future due to ocean pollution, dwindling fish stock, and competition with human activities.

2019 Toyota Corolla hatchback; manual gearbox

Glendale Star Columnist The Corolla is the most popular model Toyota has sold. The last update was back in 2013, so the factory has created a new platform for this hatchback on 2019 versions which will transfer to the four-door sedans in 2020. Many potential customers will be glad to know that a six-speed manual transmission is still available, and that is what we requested. Those who don’t want to shift for themselves can still get the CVT automatic gearbox. Radical styling is not to be found on a Corolla, but it does get a lot of attention with that cute baby blue paint job.

Under the hood, there are three drivetrain choices. First is a base 1.8-liter, 139-horsepower, four-cylinder engine with

Other babies on display include a baby jaguar, colobus monkey, baboon and several hoofed animal species including a giraffe and wildebeests, and other youngsters throughout the 100-acre park.

As a USDA-licensed, private institution, accredited by the Zoological Association of America and the Alliance of Marine Mammal Parks & Aquariums, Wildlife World Zoo, Aquarium & Safari Park receives zero taxpayer funding. No tax dollars have ever been spent to build or operate Wildlife World in its 35-year history.

Wildlife World Zoo, Aquarium & Safari Park is located at 16501 W. Northern Avenue, Litchfield Park (southeast corner of State Route 303 and Northern Avenue). It is open seven days a week, 365 days a year, including all holidays.

Zoo exhibits are open from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. (last zoo admission is at 5 p.m.).

Aquarium exhibits are open from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. Admission includes access to the zoo, aquarium and safari park.

a CVT gearbox, rated at 33 mpg overall.

Second pick is a more powerful 2.0-liter, 169-horsepower engine with CVT rated at 34 mpg overall. Third is the same 169-horsepower motor, but with this manual gearbox, rated at 32 mpg overall,

with a 29/36 spread.

In the real world, we observed 27 mpg in heavy city driving, 31 in mixed commuting, and 35 cruising at 75 mph. Cruising at 60 mph on the local expressways topped out at 38.5 mpg. This is certainly more economical than the giant Toyota Land Cruiser SUV we drove earlier that sucked gas at 14 mpg.

The interior is nothing fancy, but the quality of the materials and workmanship is very nice. Most controls are simple and easy to use. The cabin can fit four full-size adults. There are a few gripes,

though. First, the adjustment range of the tilt wheel is too narrow. Secondly, there is too much glare reflecting off the gauge cluster due to the cheap plastic cover.

Third, a real manual parking brake would be better than the electric version. These are not deal killers, just minor aggravations we have to deal with.

In a sea of large luxury machines with six-figure price tags and gas-guzzler engines, the Corolla is one of the least expensive cars we have driven this year.

While it might not have the status of the exotic road warriors, it certainly is the most practical. This Toyota is inexpensive to purchase, easy to maintain, economical to run and comfortable to drive, yet it has high quality and is super reliable. Those seeking the best value for the dollar can’t go wrong with a Corolla.

Toy Con offers place to reminisce, find collectibles

BY LAURA LATZKO

Glendale Star Contributing Writer

Toys often hold a nostalgic place in our lives. Some people try to recapture those feelings of playing with Barbies, My Little Ponies, G.I. Joes or “Star Wars” action figures by collecting them.

On Saturday, July 27, Arizona Toy Con will bring together vendors from throughout the Southwest, who will offer vintage, collectible and modern toys from different time periods.

Cosplayers are encouraged to come in costume to show their appreciation for pop culture characters. In the past, guests have dressed as Transformers, G.I. Joe and “Star Wars” characters.

Show Manager Casey Goslin said the event is tailored toward more serious and casual collectors, with popular to one-of-a-kind items.

Goslin, also a store manager for Collectors Marketplace in Phoenix, has been taking part in toy shows for the last 15 years.

“I just love the community aspect of it, and the collectors coming together and just putting on a really good, family-friendly event,” Goslin said.

Goslin said the vintage toys especially will bring back nostalgic memories of childhood, as they often do for him.

“I’m almost 40 years old, and I’ve never grown up,” Goslin said.

During the event, parents and grandparents can share stories with young people in their lives about toys with which they used to play.

“Toy collectors come and enjoy a trip down memory lane and creating new memories with their family. I love when I see a little 5-year-old who knows the ’80s toys that most kids wouldn’t know,” Goslin said.

The toy convention is hosted by the Collectors Marketplace, a pop culture store in Phoenix that sells toys, comic books, video games and diecasts.

Originally known as the ICON toy convention, the event is in its seventh year.

Local collectors have been attending since it started and go to toy events around the country.

These individuals collect multiple items, and the local toy convention offers them a premiere shopping experience in their backyards.

Over the years, the event has become more focused on the toys.

“We just want it to be an old-fashioned toy show, with a bunch of tables

with awesome toys. We want to let the product speak for itself and be the main attraction,” Goslin said.

The toy convention will have over 125 toy vendors from Arizona, Texas, Nevada, New Mexico and California, who will sell turn-of-the-century to modern toys.

Items range in price from a few dollars to thousands of dollars.

Some of the vendors only do toy conventions and have reputations for having hard-to-find items.

“As soon as we announce they are going to be there, there are people that get excited because this is the only chance all year that people get to see what these guys bring out,” Goslin said.

In the past, vendors have had collectible items such as an unreleased HeMan strength tester, original Barbie dolls, G.I. Joe prototypes and a “Star

Wars” vinyl cape Jawa.

Buyers will also find popular items such as Funko Pop figures.

Goslin said the convention lets toy enthusiasts obtain childhood toys they no longer have.

“It’s a chance for them to recapture their childhood and get the stuff that they either lost or their mom sold while they were away,” Goslin said.

During the event, collectors also have a chance to network with vendors.

“There are people who are looking for something specific, and even if the vendor doesn’t have it on the table, it doesn’t mean that it’s not at home in their attic, basement or shed somewhere,” Goslin said.

‘Spamilton’ pokes fun of Miranda’s ‘Hamilton’

BY BRIDGETTE REDMAN

Glendale Star Contributing Writer

Can something truly be called a cultural phenomenon in this day and age if it hasn’t been spoofed?

Whether or not it can, there is little doubt that “Hamilton” has seeped into the culture in ways few Broadway shows have done in decades.

So, it isn’t surprising that Gerard Alessandrini, the master of Great White Way satire and the founder of “Forbidden Broadway,” has applied his talents to the hip-hop historical musical. His spoof, “Spamilton: An American Parody,” is touring the country, and The Phoenix Theatre Company is hosting it through August 11.

“Everyone who knows ‘Hamilton’ and loves ‘Hamilton’ loves this show — they hear the music, they know all the lyrics, and when they hear how we twist and play with it, it’s priceless,” said Datus Puryear, the actor who plays actor Leslie Odom Jr. and historical politician/lawyer Aaron Burr in the touring production.

“Everyone knows the show so well and they’re ready to have a good time.

We do the twist and they’re always right there with us.”

The twists include new words to familiar songs, creative casting, puppets and the skewering of other shows and Broadway personalities. In addition to Lin-Manuel Miranda’s hit musical, “Spamilton” also parodies “Gypsy,” “Chicago,” “The King and I,” “Assassins,” “Camelot,” “The Book of Mormon” and “Sweeney Todd.”

The show debuted in New York in July 2016 and continued a successful run that extended to Chicago, London and a national tour.

Puryear said he and many of his fellow cast members have auditioned many times for “Hamilton” (and he has been called back many times as well), and when they auditioned for “Spamilton,” they knew most the music by heart. It made it easier to jump into “Spamilton,” especially because they had only two weeks to rehearse before going live.

“If I didn’t know anything about Hamilton, it would have been hard.

Knowing it made that learning curve a lot easier,” Puryear said.

“Spamilton” is called a “night of musical comedy and dancing.” (Photo courtesy The Phoenix Theatre)

Puryear got a late introduction to musical theater. While he was involved in the arts and music throughout school, he’d never done theater until he was encouraged to audition for “Beauty and the Beast” during his senior year of high school. He was cast as the Beast.

“It was a whole other door that opened for me,” he said. “It made me regret not doing theater my previous four years. When I went to college for music, I continued to do shows. It was something new I had discovered.”

After college, he did a few commercials, had his first TV show on CBS, and then he booked “Spamilton.”

It’s a show he said is absolutely for everyone —whether they have seen “Hamilton” or not.

“When I first booked the role, I was thinking that this was just going to be for a niche audience,” Puryear said.

“A lot of people have seen ‘Hamilton,’ but not everyone. But no, you definitely don’t need to have seen ‘Hamilton’ to grasp what is going on. We spoof so many other shows, and the content in and of itself is so funny.”

In fact, he said, seeing “Spamilton” can prep you for seeing the real thing.

“For those who haven’t seen ‘Hamilton,’ it teaches you what it is about,” Puryear said.

The Glendale

tar

The touring experience has been fantastic for him. His 6-month-old son and his wife have joined him on tour. He said they’ve formed close bonds with everyone they travel with.

The show pianist made a special shirt for his son that has the “Spamilton” star on it and is emblazoned with the word “Spamiltot.”

“That has been the highlight of the show — the loving care of the cast, creative team, producers and directors,” Puryear said. “The whole experience of being on tour has been fantastic. The way they embrace my family has been wonderful.”

“Spamilton’s” creator, Alessandrini, is best known for “Forbidden Broadway,” a long-running off-Broadway revue that parodies musical theater. It opened in 1982 and was continually rewritten to include new material and spoof new musicals. It ran cabaret style and typically had four actors playing multiple roles. Over the decades, they released multiple CDs and toured the world. At times they stretched out to do such things as “Forbidden Hollywood.”

Some of the songs in “Spamilton” include such titles as “Lin-Manuel as Hamilton;” “Aaron Burr, Sir, Nervous-er;” “Look Around (The Schuyler Puppets);” several reprises of “Ticket

Beggar Woman” (a take-off on the beggar woman from Sondheim’s “Sweeney Todd” begging for tickets instead of alms); “Daveed Diggs — The Fresh Prince of Big Hair,” “Book of No More Mormons;” “Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Cries” and “The Film When It Happens.”

The show opens, not with Aaron Burr, but with the actor who played him on Broadway, Puryear’s role of Leslie Odom Jr. He sings the opening number about Miranda, a theatrical revolutionary who is out to change Broadway much the way the character he played — Alexander Hamilton — revolutionized America.

Puryear sings: How does a whipper snapper Student of rap And a Latin Trapped in the middle of a Manhattan flat With Broadway accolades While other writers kiss The corporate dollar Grow up to be a hip-hop op’ra Scholar?

At other times, the actor playing Miranda sings “I am not gonna let Broadway rot” instead of “I’m not throwing away my shot.”

While the show is a parody and spoof, it is clear that Alessandrini is himself a fan of “Hamilton” and Miranda, and “Spamilton” spoofs in the most admiring of terms.

Puryear encourages anyone who is a fan of musical theater to see “Spamilton.” The show, he pointed out, is only an hour and 15 minutes long — with no intermission.

“You’ll get a night of musical comedy and dancing,” Puryear said. “It’s a great night out. It’s fun filled, it’s not too long and it’s nonstop laughter.”

“Spamilton” When: 8 p.m. Wednesdays to Saturdays 3 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays through Sunday, August 11 Where: The Phoenix Theatre, 1825 N. Central Avenue, Phoenix Cost: Tickets are $38-$88 Info: 602-254-2151, phoenixtheatre.com

They cared, dared, shared and they all fared well Did you know Jesus was the first neighborhood activist? In Jesus, God’s Word became flesh. Jesus was sent

by God from heaven to earth to show us what God is like. The original language in the Bible clarifies Jesus’ mission. “Jesus pitched His tent in earth’s neighborhood…” Jesus came to earth to show the way, not just preach, screech, beseech or teach the way. He got involved. He wore blue jeans. He became a participant. He got his hands dirty. He had compassion. Then his compassion turned into passion and then action.

Jesus served people with no agenda. Most caring these days has some self-serving email attachment that comes with it. Jesus served people, just because. It was God’s love in action.

There is a story in the Bible of a paraplegic who had four friends. The friends heard that Jesus was speaking in a small house near them. The paraplegic couldn’t get to Jesus on his own, so the four men carried him to the house. The house, however, was crowded with people. So, what did the four friends do? They tore a hole in the roof of the house and lowered the paraplegic through the hole to Jesus.

Can you imagine what the homeowner thought of that? Try explaining that

CHURCH COMMUNITY CONNECTION Pastor Ed Delph Glendale Star Columnist

damage to your home insurance agent!

The paraplegic was incapable, incapacitated and inadequate to have faith himself. He was not able to approach Jesus for himself. Many people are like this man. They are hurt emotionally, physically and financially. They are paralyzed by past mistakes, their inability to forgive, bitterness, criticism, low self-esteem, negative circumstances, poverty, disease and the like in their lives.

However, this paraplegic had four roof-raising friends! He was personally limited but corporately connected. His four friends could transport him beyond his injury to places, people and peace that he could never reach on his own. Where they went, he could go.

He received the benefit of their faith, their hope, their perseverance and their resourcefulness. His climbing companions were friends born for adversity.

They were friends who stick closer together than a brother. When you have

friends like these, anything can happen.

His friends were hopeful that Jesus could heal their friend. Because they had hope, which is the expectation of future good, they had faith. Faith won’t let a crowd of people in a small house with no easy way in deter them.

Faith understands that when doors are closed, you try the roof. They raised the roof for their friend. Lesson: They cared, they dared, they shared and they all fared well. They weren’t too busy for their friend in need, a citizen of their community.

They lent him their faith. His healing came from Jesus, but his faith came from others. Jesus saw “their faith.”

People can be mended by the faith of others. Your “paralyzed” neighbor, boss, customers, friends, spouse or family member may not have faith, but you can! Don’t let a crowd of people crowd out being a blessing to others.

You never know what can happen when you get them in the presence of God. Sometimes miracles such as healing, salvation, even changes of attitude, are instant, as in this case. Other times, they require a process. God is responsible for which way the healing comes.

There are friends and there are crowds.

Our “friendly” ministry is to get them to Jesus, even if we need to do some

roof raising. Maybe even someday, in your time of need, someone may raise the roof for you.

Jesus saw the faith of the paraplegic’s friends, who were not intimidated by the need or the crowd. He spoke to the man and said, “Rise, take up your bed and go home.” The paraplegic rose, took up his bed and went home.

He said fare well to welfare for the rest of his life.

Think of it this way: The community is paralyzed with crowds of needs. The church is the four climbing companions who lend their faith to the needy until the needy can get their own faith.

That’s a win-win for everyone.

In the Scriptures there is a verse which says, “Love God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength and then love your neighbor as yourself.” Do you know what God is saying to us in this verse? “Neighbor, won’t you be My neighbor and then be your neighbor’s real neighbor?”

Think of that, you daring, sharing, caring, giving, radically different, faith-filled roof raisers.

Bellevue Heights Church donates bus to help refugees

BY GLENDALE STAR STAFF To help support the transportation needs of a refugee congregation, Bellevue Heights Church in Sun City donated one of its buses to the Arizona Karen Baptist Church.

Title to the 14-passenger bus was transferred recently to Pastor Tha Hser Tun and Tansy Kadoe, director of communications.

According to Kadoe, the bus was put into use immediately, transporting people to services on Sundays and throughout the week.

A large majority of the 400-member

Phoenix congregation fled their homeland of Burma (Myanmar), to escape violent government persecution of ethnic Karen and other minorities. Most spent several years in Thai refugee camps before being able to immigrate to the United States. For the past decade, Bellevue Heights has actively supported the ministry at Arizona Karen Baptist Church.

Worship services for AKBC are held at the Monte Vista Baptist Church, with a second campus at the former West Dunlap Baptist Church, both in Phoenix.

Glendale boy lands spot in Lego Creative Crew

BY CHRISTINA FUOCO-KARASINSKI Glendale Star Executive Editor

Dayton Harwood is one of the newest members of the Creative Crew at Arizona Mills’ Legoland Discovery Center in Tempe. And he has one goal in mind.

“I really hope to learn how to make a Pikachu out of regular Lego because I had this one a while ago that didn’t have all the pieces, so I didn’t get to finish it,” said Dayton, who will attend Self-Development Academy in the fall.

Dayton is one of 12 kids in the Creative Crew, a group of children chosen annually through a building competition at the Arizona Mills Legoland Discovery Center.

This year, the day-long event was Saturday, June 15. Kids between the ages of 6 and 10 created one-of-a-kind models in front of a live audience.

Judges included Master Model Builder Alec Posta, General Manager Claudio Di Capua and Operations Director Cassie Fairclough. Legoland Discovery Center mascot Bertie offered encouragement and entertainment as the 85 kids competed in two rounds. They were asked to build a Lego animal and something that represented a part of themselves.

The winners get an inside look at the inner-workings of the 60,000-square-foot interactive attraction, and they’ll also assist Posta with everything from testing new Lego models for special events to serving as ambassadors for visitors and dishing out advice.

The Creative Crew scores two free annual passes to Legoland Discovery Center Arizona, invitations to exclusive events and a Creative Crew T-shirt to wear to monthly Dayton Harwood of Glendale is a new member of the Cremeetings and activities. ative Crew, a group of 12 children chosen annually through a The other members are building competition at the Arizona Mills Legoland Discovery Center in Tempe.

Blackmer and Levi Ramirez of Phoe“They’re the top brass of the kid nix; Adelyn Suddock of Peoria; Abigail Master Builders,” said Posta, of Ah- White of Casa Grande; Layla Kretchwatukee. “They meet with me once a mer of Queen Creek; and Abigail month and have lessons. We do some Angeles, Micah Grayer and Brendan fun builds. I try and hit the seasons. Aylesworth of Chandler.

Like in October, we’ll build pumpkins “We obviously look for talented — I’ll teach them how to make spheres builders, but that’s not all it takes to — to grow their creativity, their build- be in the Creative Crew,” Posta said. ing ability and their love of Lego.”

“We’re looking for kids who think out-

side of the box. For example, we had them build an animal for the first round of the competition. We had one child build a whole family of turtles and it had a backstory. We chose them for the Creative Crew. It’s that extra level of creativity that brings your models to life. I think adults could learn from this, too.”

Dayton is definitely inspired by Lego. It’s one of his many creative outlets, which include Phoenix Children’s Choir and sports. He even has an invention book, in which he jots down his ideas before he forgets them.

“Lego really inspires me,” he said.

“They inspire me to do stuff during the day and not sit down and watch TV all day. They’re saying to me, ‘Do stuff.

Don’t lay down. Don’t watch TV. Build something.’”

His favorite set is an unfinished Ninjago project. His parents, Dylan and Macy Harwood, hope he perfects his Lego skills as a member of the Creative Crew.

“He loves to build and he’s super creative,” Macy said. “I want him to learn different techniques so he can reach his goals of building whatever he wants.”
