By Jennifer R. Carnes Its not easy to be a girl especially in this day and age. The right school. The right clothes. The right friends. Peer pressure. Peer pressure. Peer pressure. Theres so much more that girls have to know just to succeed, not to mention fi nding a place just to fi t in. But a group of Tri-Community girls have found just that place a place where they can be themselves without fear of recrimination or embarrassment. They have a safe place where they can talk about body image, self acceptance and peer pressure. They have a place where they can just be themselves. Maggie Miller, who for years has led the Rancho Linda Vista OracleArt Summer Art Workshop, last year started a girls camp. It ran through the month of June and was open to girls ages 9-13. The

camp was so successful, she brought it back again this year for girls ages 10-17, this time with a little help from the SaddleBrooke Community Outreach program. The camp runs Mondays through Fridays from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. through July 1. The cost is $10 per day, although Maggie wont turn a girl away for fi nancial reasons. I could not do this alone, she said. With the additional funding from the SaddleBrooke group, girls this year have been able to do more crafts, take a few more fi eld trips and even learn about building a business. This Friday, the girls will be at the 77North Marketplace in Catalina selling the items that they have spent the past couple of weeks making. They will have purses, jewelry and even some handmade soaps. And money that they earn will be used to open each girl

a savings account at a local bank. When next years camp rolls around, the girls will have a chance to see what their money has earned in interest. Maggie has had some help from volunteers very awesome volunteers, she said. Community members, moms and even a couple of ladies from the SaddleBrooke Community Outreach program have spent time with the girls, teaching them something about crafting or about life. (Yes, even this reporter/mom spent time with the girls Thursday morning we learned how to make rings from buttons and wire.) Justine, one of the older girls in the group, explained how she and other girls are learning about staying healthy. Its helping us take care of our bodies, she said. Girls are learning about eating more fresh fruits and vegetables as well as learning

By Jennifer R. Carnes Mammoth residents may soon see some increases to their monthly bills. Last week, the Mammoth Town Council narrowly approved increases to water, sewer, garbage and cemetery rates. The council considered the rate adjustments to help the town pay its bills. As recommended by staff, the rates will be: Garbage $12.40 per can, a rate increase of $2 per month. Water 10 percent increase, approximately $2.43 per month.

Sewer fi ve percent increase, approximately $0.74 per month. Cemetery (fees for burial not including cost of the plot) $632 (actual cost per burial is $832 and currently the town is charging $250). The total monthly increase is approximately $5.17. The measure was approved three to two with Vice Mayor Frances Wickham and Councilman Robert Koch casting the dissenting votes. The Council will have to hold a public hearing concerning the water and sewer rate increases before the rates can take effect.

By Jennifer R. Carnes While by no means unanimous, the Oracle School Board last week voted to put the question of whether to sell $16 million in bonds into the hands of the voters. The measure passed three to two in favor of calling the election. Board President Kurt Steffens and Clerk Nellie Doran voted against the measure. Each member was given the opportunity to express

their concerns and feelings about all the information that the group has received from the Capital Improvement Planning Committee as well as from community members, both in favor of the election and against the timing. I feel like Im being rushed, Doran told her fellow board members. Clearly, there is a need, she said, adding, I dont think its a $16 million fi x up. Doran explained that when

the previous board put together an override for the voters to approve, the board clearly defi ned what exactly the voters were being asked to approve. I feel like we havent done that yet, she said. Steffens was in favor of holding off until the following year. We can no longer use band-aids on a bleeding artery, he said, suggesting that instead of repairing most of the buildings

in the district and replacing only a few, that the district consider demolishing all but a few and replacing them with brand new buildings. Im basically suggesting, he said, putting it off until next year and bringing a more clearly defi ned plan to the voters. Board member Alicia Bristow admitted she was torn. Its bad economic times, she said, explaining that she like many others lives on a

For well over a decade, RLV Oracle Arts has been hosting a free summer arts camp for young people in the Tri-Community. This summer, after teaching successes experienced during the school year, the producers of the camp have organized the recreational and educational activities according to gender. The all girls session of summer camp has been in full swing for two weeks now and features instruction related to the sensitivities and emotional lives of girls aged 10-17. The boys version of the summer camp will be in session from July 5 -July 29. The camp will focus on the lives of boys, exploring both physical, mental and emotional aspects of what it means to be a boy in the 21stCentury. Activities will include daily swimming and swimming instruction, fi lm and video projects, martial arts, theatre games, poetry and practical

Editor, San Manuel Miner: We are pleased to announce that the second - and final - Oracle Town Meeting to discuss the results of a public search for an alternate Verizon Wireless cell tower location in Oracle, will be held at 6 p.m. on Thursday, July 7, at the Oracle Community Center. A total of 15 Oracle landowners over a three-week period offered up parcels of land for Verizon Wireless to consider for installation of this communications facility. However, the last three sites were not evaluated with the first dozen parcels offered, because the owners did not contact us until after the search phase was concluded on the first of June.

Pinnacle Consulting, Inc., and Verizon Wireless will have completed their site engineering evaluations of the 12 sites considered by July 7, and will present their findings at this Town Meeting. Pinnacle and Verizon had agreed originally to consider up to 10 sites, and rank and rate these sites in terms of their suitability for offering the best improvement in cell service for Oracle residents. Details about the top three ranking finalist sites will be presented at the July 7 Town Meeting, and Pinnacle Consulting, Inc. Representatives will be available to discuss these choices with the public at that time. Both Pinal County District One Supervisor

Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu was named the 2011 National Sheriff of the Year by the National Sheriffs Association (NSA). The award was presented Sunday, June 19, at the opening session of the NSAs Annual Conference in St. Louis, Missouri. The National Sheriffs Association (NSA) established the Ferris E. Lucas award in 1995 to recognize an outstanding sheriff of the year for contributions made to improve the Office of Sheriff on the local, state, and national levels, and for involvement in the

community above and beyond the responsibilities required. The award is given in memory of Ferris E. Lucas, NSA Past President (1944-46) and executive director (1964-82), who completed 50 years of distinguished service and leadership in law enforcement. This years award is sponsored by Pursuit Products, Inc. In 2008, Sheriff Paul Babeu won his first term in a landslide election victory over the incumbent sheriff. Since being elected as the Pinal County Sheriff, he has become one of the

Sheriff Paul Babeu named 2011 National Sheriff of the Yearmost progressive Sheriffs in the country. Sheriff Babeu has earned both statewide and national attention for his strong stance against illegal immigration. His stance and actions against those responsible for drug and human trafficking has earned him the distinction as one of Americas Toughest Sheriffs on Illegal Immigration. The Pinal County Sheriffs Office is the third largest in the state of Arizona with more than 700 employees. Under Sheriff Babeus direction, the Pinal County Sheriffs Office has acquired both innovative equipment and technology through $7,000,000 in grant funding. Citizens of Pinal County used to have to wait up to 15 minutes for a deputy to respond, the response time has now been cut in half. Sheriff Babeu is a strong proponent of regional efforts to improve public safety. The approach has allowed all agencies

within Pinal County to pool their resources and work together, saving money and improving service. Thanks to Sheriff Babeu, Pinal County now has a Regional SWAT, Traffic and Narcotics Task Force. Sheriff Babeu has also organized a Citizens on Patrol program and a Citizen Alert Network which has brought the community forward and more active with the Sheriffs Office. Sheriff Babeu is an Advisory Board Member for the National Organization for Victims Assistance. He is also in his second term as the President of the Arizona Sheriffs Association. Sheriff Babeu has become a national spokesman on border crimes, illegal immigration and the need to secure the U.S./Mexico border. He has worked on the development of the 10 Point Border Security Plan with Senator John McCain and Senator Jon Kyl.

Im very humbled by this recognition for the exemplary work of our staff, volunteers and the strong community support by the public, Babeu said. We will not let up, but strive for further agency improvements in an effort to best protect our families. National Sheriffs Association (NSA) is the largest association of law enforcement professionals in the United States, representing more than 3,000 elected sheriffs across the nation, and a total membership of more than 20,000. NSA is a non-profit organization dedicated to raising the level of professionalism among sheriffs, their deputies, and others in the field of criminal justice and public safety. Throughout its 69-year history, NSA has served as an information clearinghouse for sheriffs, deputies, chiefs of police, other law enforcement professionals, state governments and the federal government. NSA also provides management training

for sheriffs and their command personnel at the National Sheriffs Institute and through other innovative programs, workshops, and seminars. The National Sheriffs Association, located in Alexandria, Virginia, also oversees the highly successful Triad Program and Neighborhood Watch.

Letter to the Editor: Final meeting set for Verizon tower

Pete Rios, and Oracle Fire Department representatives will also be on hand to answer any questions from the audience. For those of you interested

in this issue, please mark your calendars for 6 p.m on Thursday, July 7, and plan to join us at the OCC to learn about what we hope is

a final solution to this local cell service problem. Please understand that I, as just a facilitator, have no inside information about the top three choices, and will find out the results along with the rest of Oracle residents on Thursday, July 7. Thank you,/s/ Ross Hopkins

Dear Friends and Family, Charging electrical equip-ment in foreign countries is always a touch and go kind of adventure. I always break out all of the necessary con-verters, adapters, gizmos, and whatchamacallits, I try to follow proper voltage pro-cedures, and I STILL must anoint the thing with holy wa-ter and pray over it with gusto as I merely hope for the best. I got this fancy little Blackberry before I came on this adven-ture as a means of keeping in touch (just in case) and Ive already had many a headache over this phone as Ive at-tempted to be smarter than the Smart Phone . . . give me an old rotary phone any day and Id be perfectly happy. So, I should have know the moment I plugged the thing in it would roll over and die a gruesome electronic death. Before I gave up and had an electrifying funeral for the dearly departed cellphone, I knew that there was one hero who might just save the day. I am currently stay-ing in the home of Tanya, one of my previous English stu-dents. Tanyas Dad is a com-puter engineer--a master of electronics, a whiz with com-puters, a genius with wires . . . not to mention he is a trea-

sure trove of information, ideas, and unrelenting energy (he is so funny!). He was all to eager to become Doctor Electronica and dive right into resuscitating my poor Belly Up Blackberry. After inspecting the decaying hunk of plastic for a few minutes, it was determined that the prob-lem was actually in the charger and it was rushed straight into emergency surgery. When the good doctor decided he need-ed to crack open the charger to bring it back to life, I thought, What in the heck? It cant get much worse than it already is! So, then the procedure be-gan with me poised nearby to act as a nurse, handing over tools and offering as-sistance. Doctor Electronica then disappeared and I heard loud banging coming from the next room as the crippled charger was hammered apart . . . and then he returned with magnifying glasses (includ-ing the third hand, which was a magnifying glass with arms), Geiger-meters, wires, torches, and every manner of electrical equipment known to man. He focused on the task at hand like a kid at play, plea-sure and fulfillment dancing in his eyes and joy dancing upon his lips. Every now and then,

he let loose with a mania-cal laugh or a Ho Ho! He explained the procedure in a mix of Bulgarian and English, two whole pairs of glasses bal-anced on his nose so that he could adequately see the in-tricate workings of my phone charger. He held an eyeglass in his eye as he inspected the equipment bit by bit, testing the electrical voltage with his Geiger-meter, firing a sharp gizmo and touching each electrical crevice with the hot point. At one point, as he tested the plugged-in charger, he commented, Very Danger-ous! High Voltage! That caused me to repeatedly make sure the thing wasnt plugged in as he poked and prodded each little nodule! When he asked me to hold a what-chamacallit steady on a point of the open charger for him, I hesitated and definitely made sure it wasnt plugged in be-fore I touched it!!! Dont worry! he said, Not plugged in! WHEW!!! He worked like a man on a mission as he fixed apparent cracks and bro-ken wires, disappearing pe-riodically to bring out wires, machines, magnifying glasses, sewing pins, wax, hot ma-chines, Geiger-meters, solar chargers, cables, air pumps,

more gizmos and whatchama-callits, etc . . . pretty much everything BESIDES the Bul-garian Rakiya, which might have solved the problem in the first place. Must remember . . . this side positive charge, this side nega-tive charge . . . he mumbled as there was a mad flurry or wires, cables, sparks, and fin-gers. I was dumbfounded, befuddled, and bewildered . . . you can imagine my shock and excitement when my phone, plugged into the deconstruct-ed charger, eventually burst back to life as if returning to this world after a near-death experience. Super! Chudes-no! the Doc and I chanted as my Blackberry sputtered and breathed new life. Won-der of wonder, joy of joys . . . my phone lives. Who would have thought?!!? I think, at this point, Id trust this man with my first born child! As I now sit here cradling the poor dear cellphone in my arms, whispering sweet nothings in its electronic ears, I thank dear Doctor Electronica for saving its life . . . voltage by electrical voltage, charge by electrical charge.

San Manuel Elks will be serving a Roast Chicken DinnerFriday, June 24, 5-7 p.m.

Dinner will include:1/2 chicken, all the fixins, dessert, coffee or tea.Cost is $8 per person.

Public is invited.

the only item Soul believed was unnecessary was lighting the football fi eld. Board member Jack Siddle said that the Board had a heavy decision to make. I cant help but think that we should let the people speak at the ballot box, he said. Why not let the people speak? The voters in the district will now have to decide at the polls in the November 8 election. What is the bottom line to taxpayers should they approve the bond election? The district would sell bonds several times throughout the duration of the bond time frame of 10 years. Taxpayers should expect to see their property tax rates to increase by approximately $0.60 per $100 of assessed value with the tax rate creeping down over the life of all the bonds,

Government have opposed the timing and planning in the bond election issue. In a letter sent to members of the Oracle School District Governing Board prior to last weeks meeting, the PCCEG Chairman, Fred MacKenzie asked the Board to consider tabling action on the issue until January 2012. MacKenzie wrote, The condition that prompted the proposed bond sale in the amount of $15,500,000 took many years to develop, perhaps as long as 20 years. It appears for whatever reason, proper maintenance procedures were not followed, resulting in the deterioration of the buildings and grounds in both Oracle Ridge School and Mountain Vista School. This occurred before this current board took offi ce and therefore we are not criticizing you. We are simply looking to you to do your homework and propose a solution before putting the proposed bond sale up for a vote of the Board of Directors and later on the ballot. What we have seen so far, is just a large number of desired items with the funds from the proposed bond sale but no short term tactical or long term strategic plan to accomplish it. The meeting last week was classifi ed as a special meeting and a Call to the Public was not included on the agenda, a fact which prompted MacKenzie to submit his letter. Lets work together and take the time to do this right, MacKenzie added. If you will work with us and consider our suggestions, we will work with you. PCCEG wants to be part of the solution but if you choose not to include us, it will be your decision. We can either be a valuable ally or a formidable opponent. Lets

let the residents of the school district understand the issues thoroughly before you ask them to vote and more importantly, get their input. Suggested Priority One projects includes demolishing the Bateman Building which was built in 1958 and construction of a new middle school building, with a total approximate cost of $1.1 million. Other items in the Priority One list include: re-roofi ng two primary buildings, fi nishing the security fencing project, putting new roofs on buildings 1001 and 1003, repairing the roof on the administration building, upgrading phone and internet services on the Mountain Vista Campus, purchasing four new buses (three as replacements plus an extra), remodeling and updating the middle school science lab. The Oracle School Board can still reverse its decision on the bond election. The group will need to approve a resolution formally calling the election and specifying the priorities and amounts to be spent before the next steps can be taken. Should the resolution fail, the district would be unable to proceed with the election. The resolution calling for the election will be on the Boards next regularly scheduled meeting, July 14, at 6 p.m. at the Oracle Ridge Board Room. There will be a special meeting today (June 22) at 2:30 p.m. for the Board to work on the priorities and dollar amounts for the resolution. At the request of local resident Venden Leach, a Call to the Public has been added to the agenda. The public is invited to weigh in on the subject during the Call to the Public. Board members are not allowed to respond to any comments other than to make directions to staff.

averaging $0.51 per $100 of assessed value. Taxpayers would be repaying the debt until 2034-35. For a home valued at $100,000 (full cash value is approximately 80 percent of market value) this would mean an estimated yearly tax increase of $51.08. For a home valued at $250,000, the estimated yearly tax increase would be $127.70. Commercial and industrial properties would be taxed a little heavier: property valued at $100,000 would see an estimated average increase of $102.16 in their annual tax bill. Property valued at $2.5 million would see an increase of $2,554. These tax fi gures are entirely dependent on the assessed valuation of the property in the district remaining constant over the term of the bonds.

By John Hernandez The recent closing of Gordons IGA Market in San Manuel has left a void in the areas business community. The Tri-Community is now left with only one full service grocery store in the area, the Oracle Market. The Oracle Market is located in the building that used to be the old Hildreths Market at 760 East American Avenue in Oracle. It is a full service grocery store carrying a wide variety of grocery items at competitive prices. Managers Glen and Carol Merriman invite the people of San Manuel and Mammoth to come and try them out. We welcome any new customers, they said. This Friday, June 24, Oracle Market is offering free eggs and a cup of coffee for fi rst time customers. Just for coming in and looking at what Oracle Market offers, you will receive one dozen eggs free (1 dozen per family) and you can have a cup of fresh Java City coffee. You can also ask Glen about the wish list: if there is a product the store does not carry

and you use regularly, Glen will try it out on the shelves. If this product continues to sell, the market will put it on their regular product list. Besides your standard grocery store items, the Oracle Market has a full service deli and meat department. The butchers will cut your meat to order. They carry quality meats and cold cuts. The deli has a variety of cold cuts and cheeses at prices comparable to other larger markets. Deli items such as homemade cole slaw, potato and macaroni salad are available. They make their own salsa, beef and pork chorizo and sell bulk bacon. A variety of Mexican products are available including El Guapo spices and dried chiles, masa, tripe, hominy, Jarritos Mexican sodas, and La Michoacana paletas. They carry organic milk and soy milk along with their regular dairy products. Oracle Market has daily hot food to go or you can eat it in the store at the tables in the hot food section.
