He always spoke of those years as the “best thing that ever happened to him.” He spent many years working with CCC Legacy Chapter 44, in Phoenix making sure that everyone

understood what these boys accomplished and how we should never forget what they did for America. He was a cherished husband and best friend to Nellie; the greatest father to Gloria Fraijo, Esther (Jerry) Breckenridge, Arquimedes (Denise) Fraijo and JoAnn Cano; adored grandfather to Shannon (Kris) Estes, Sara (Brian) Ketter, Jesse (Crystal) Breckenridge, Luis and Mico Cano, Rebecca and Nick Fraijo; and the very best ‘Ole Tata’ to Sean, Kendrick, Sabrina, Sage, Audrey, and Naomi and baby girl Breckenridge.

Are you ready for a healthier life? Weight loss not only improves your quality of life, but also prevents or lowers your risk of developing diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, back and joint pain. You’ve probably tried to lose weight before, but gained it back. Studies have shown that patients on traditional weight loss programs lose weight, but often regain two-thirds of it within one year and almost all

of it within � ve years. � e LAP-BAND® System is an adjustable band that is placed around the top of your stomach laparoscopically (using a video camera and small incisions), reducing the stomach capacity and creating an earlier feeling of fullness. It is an e� ective and reversible surgical method for weight loss. It’s safer and less invasive than gastric bypass, as there is no stomach cutting or stapling. Dr. Werner Andrade is now o� ering this procedure at Cobre Valley Regional Medical Center.

Sheriff’s Report

ByMila Lira After years of planning and drawing, several public meetings and reviewed by the Pinal County Supervisors the new five supervisor district boundaries are official. The county announced last week that they have received official approval from the Department of Justice to accept the district boundaries. The 2010 Census found that Pinal County’s population is at 375,770. By law, Pinal County was required to add two new supervisors once it passed the population threshold set in statute, as determined by the official US

Census Bureau data. The new officials will run for election in the November 2012 election and will take their oaths of office in January 2013. “After all the time and effort that we put into this process by reaching out to the public, I am not surprised that our redistricting maps were so quickly pre-cleared by the US Justice Department,” said Pinal County Board of Supervisors’ Chairman Pete Rios. “I thank our Elections Department staff for all their hard work.” The Copper Corridor Communities (Aravaipa,

Superior, Kearny, Mammoth, San Manuel, Oracle, and Mammoth) all remain in Supervisor District 1, along with the other district one community precincts of Coolidge (Northeast, Northwest and South), Eloy, Randolph, and Cactus Forest. Added to the district are the north and south precincts of Florence. Due to the redistricting, SaddleBrooke East and West are both moving from District 1 and into the newly formed District 4. The SaddleBrooke precincts will join the Town of Maricopa, Red Rock and Arizona City. To review the

Department of Justice accepts County Redistricting Planpopulation break outs for each precinct/district visit the county website at: http://bit.ly/zrMaO3 The Maricopa Monitor announced last week that former Kearny resident Cheryl Chase has announced that she will be running for Pinal County District 2 Supervisor. The position is currently held by Bryan Martyn. Martyn announced

recently that he will not seek re-election. Chase has been employed by the Pinal County Sheriff’s Office (PCSO) as the director of community relations office for the past three years under Sheriff Babeu. Chase represented the Copper Corridor in the Arizona Legislature as a representative for District 23. District Two includes most of the

unincorporated community of San Tan and parts of Apache Junction. Now that the boundaries have been drawn candidates wishing to run for County Supervisor may pick up election packets from the Pinal County Elections Department.

Post Office boxes come in many different sizes. But all have the same shape. This is something the children at the Superior Head Start learned Monday during their walking field trip to the United States Post Office. The children toured the lobby and then

each mailed a local letter. They also searched for the Superior Head Start mailbox and commented on the different sizes of the mailboxes and locations. “How do you open the box if you forget?” asked one child. “How old is the box?”

asked another. Other children commented on the items they saw and wondered what might be inside their families’ mailboxes. The children also asked why there were some small and much larger mailboxes. The Post Office tour

coincided with the children’s lessons this week on boxes. The children are spending the week comparing, measuring and decorating recycled tissue boxes using collage and craft items. The boxes were donated by a community member. The field trip was a fun

adventure for the students learning about boxes, touring the Post Office and discussing the cost of mailing a package and purchasing stamps. The day ended with the teacher reading the story, Never Mail an Elephant. The children exclaimed with

delight what they would attempt to mail and what they would enjoy receiving in the mail after their teacher shared her persona experience of receiving a fresh coconut in her mailbox sent by her family while they were vacationing in Hawaii.

By Mila Lira This weekend more than 60,000 people celebrated the Arizona Centennial at the Arizona Best Fest which was held at the Arizona State Capitol Mall in Phoenix on Saturday and Sunday. The event was designed to celebrate the best of everything in Arizona and the Copper Corridor was not forgotten. Event organizers invited the Copper Corridor Economic Development Coalition to bring the Mobile Visitor Center to the event. The MVC is used by the coalition to promote tourism in the corridor. Over the two-day event, volunteers from throughout the Copper

Corridor provided information about all there is to see and do in the corridor. It is estimated that the volunteers at the MVC provided information to at least 3,000 people. There were many event pavilions that celebrated Arizona’s history, natural resources, military presence and ethnic contributions. There were several mentions about the people, places and resources in the Copper Corridor. Local companies with a presence in the Copper Corridor helped to sponsor the Arizona Best Fest pavilions. Asarco/Grupo Mexico sponsored the Hispanic Pavilion which featured the

contributions of Hispanics throughout Arizona as well as provided event goers an opportunity to visit a car show, eat traditional Hispanic foods and make piñatas, cascarones (confetti eggs) and paper flowers. There were also many folklorico dance troops and mariachis from across the state that performed, as well as the Powerdrive band which has local roots to the corridor. Resolution Copper sponsored the Natural Resources pavilion which featured a large museum tent that talked about the history and industries of the natural resources in Arizona. The tent also featured a display on the Arizona National Scenic Trail. This pavilion

Copper Corridor communities represented at Best Festincluded demonstration and information booths from the Bureau of Land Management,

Arizona Game and Fish, the Arizona Off Highway Users Association and the Forest

Service. The Copper Corridor MVC was also in the Natural Resources Pavilion.


By Mila Lira On Thursday last week, officials from Resolution Copper explained to the United States Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee that if the Southeast Arizona Land Exchange and Conservation Act of 2012 is not approved by the end of the year there is great concern that Rio Tinto may choose to invest in other projects. Resolution Copper Vice President Jon Cherry explained in his testimony that to date Resolution Copper has invested $750 million studying the feasibility of the project, and that to continue moving forward Resolution will need to request another $6 billion to fully develop the project from their parent company Rio Tinto. The hearing was called by Senator Jeff Bingaman (D-N.M.), chairman of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee. Bingaman called the hearing because of the differences in the bill that was approved in the house in October H.R. 1904 and Senate bill 409 which was introduced in 111th Congress. In the current version of the bill, the National Environmental Protection Act (NEPA) will be completed after the land is exchanged. S.B. 409 required that NEPA be completed before the land is exchanged and it also gave the Secretary of Agriculture the final say to approve the exchange provided the secretary felt it was in the best interest of the public. Resolution Copper officials also testified that they expect the mine plan of operations to be completed by the second quarter of this year and that the completion of the operation plan will trigger the NEPA process. Senators John McCain and Jon Kyle testified in

Resolution Copper – Funding could be in jeopardysupport of the project. Several letters of support for the project were submitted by local governments including the Town of Superior. Shan Lewis from the Inter Tribal Council of Arizona testified in opposition of the project. He expressed concern that the project will jeopardize sacred sites for the San Carlos Apache Tribe. In a press conference following the hearing Cherry explained that the hearing went as they had expected and he thanked Congressman Paul Gosar and Senators McCain and Kyle for their support. If the Southeast Arizona Land Exchange and Conservation Act of 2012 is approved it will transfer 2,422 acres of land in the Tonto National Forest known as the Oak Flat Campground to Resolution Copper. In turn Resolution will convey 5,300 acres of Arizona conservation land

to the United States, the majority of which lies in

the San Pedro River Valley. The Resolution Copper

project is expected to create 3,700 mining jobs

and 3,000 construction jobs.

CVRMC CEO Named to the AZ Hospital and Healthcare Association Board of Directors

Neal Jensen

Neal Jensen, Chief Executive Officer of Cobre Valley Regional Medical Center has accepted the honor of representing rural hospitals on the Board of Directors of the Arizona Hospital and Healthcare Association (AzHHA). “This board is a well-respected group of healthcare executives, physicians, and community leaders and it’s a great opportunity for me to network and learn from people who have excelled professionally. I’m excited and honored to be part of the board,” Jensen speaks of his recent appointment. The AzHHA is a statewide trade association representing more than 100 hospitals, healthcare systems, affiliated health organizations, and the patients and communities

they serve. With a mission of sustaining and improving the health of Arizonans, AzHHA supports its members by providing advocacy, education and services. Jensen served as the Chief Financial Officer for CVRMC for 10 years before being promoted to CEO in 2008, a time when the economy began to turn. “Many hospitals are cutting services, our position is to bring new services to the people we serve. Our equipment and people are top of the line,” Jensen speaks about his strategies to withstand the economic recession and changes in healthcare. “We are providing more education and training than ever before. Customer service, quality, and growth are the focus of

CVRMC as we continue our work to provide excellent care for our patients and their families.” Rural hospitals see a wider variety of patient cases and the experience for the staff is much greater. Rural hospitals face legislative and economic changes with more impact than urban hospitals. “Rural healthcare compared to urban healthcare is like night and day,” Jensen states. “Anything that happens to the healthcare industry is magnified at rural hospitals. We are very sensitive to community healthcare changes. If we lose a couple of doctors, it could be crippling. I am pleased to be adding another voice for rural hospitals on the Arizona Hospital and Healthcare Association.”

Saturday, Feb. 18, at the Superior Little League Field. This tournament provides an easy and fun way for everyone to get involved and help raise funds for the Superior Little League. Cornhole is a game similar to horseshoes except you use wooden boxes called Cornhole platforms and corn bags instead of horseshoes and metal stakes. Contestants take turns pitching their cornbags at the Cornhole platform until a contestant reaches the score of 21 points. Registration for the tournament begins at noon and the tournament will begin promptly at 2 p.m. The registration fee is $30 per team. Prizes will be awarded to the first and second place teams. There will be food and raffles available throughout the day.

By Rev. Dennis Van GorpFamily Life Christian Center Solomon wrote in Ecclesiastes 2:10, “I denied myself nothing my eyes desired; I refused my heart no pleasure.” Many people view life in that same manner. He continued his thoughts in the next verse, “Yet, everything was meaningless.” He did it all and gained nothing. His father, King David, wrote in Psalm 1, a number of things to consider when life isn’t working out quite the way we expected. First of all, don’t just follow the crowd, they may not know where they are going either. Second, learn to love the Word of God, it is an instruction manual for living life. Third, study and practice the laws of God. When we give God control of our life, we find this promise in Psalm 4:5 & 8, “Trust in the LORD; you will sleep in peace and dwell in safety.” The Psalmist adds

Pastor’s Cornerthat our heart will be filled with great joy. We know this to be true because of Psalm 9:10; God has never ignored or abandoned those who seek Him. Paul, in Galatians 3, speaks about trying to be Godly through our own human efforts. Solomon experienced how useless that could be. There is only one thing we can do of ourselves; that is to say yes to Jesus and let Him be our Savior and Lord. When God is in charge, the result is found in Psalm 126:2. “Our mouths were filled with laughter, our tongues with songs of joy. Then it was said among the nations, ‘the LORD has done great things for them’.” That is the best way – our life blossoming and prospering. Then we will not have to experience what Solomon tried, living life for its pleasure and finding none. With all of his immense wealth, he couldn’t buy happiness or hope. Only God can provide a life full of goodness and contentment.
