extend our heartfelt thanks to all who expressed condolences

by way of cards, � owers, food or kind words at the passing of our mother. We are deeply touched by your generosity,

thoughtfulness and prayers.

� ank you so very much,William, Je� , Sandy &

children

thoughtfulness and prayers.

These past few weeks we have seen the world we live in go through some major changes. We have seen lives and jobs lost. One thing for certain we are all affected

one way or another. Staying at home, working at home, why is this so hard? I remember a time growing up when my youngest sister came down with a form of Scarlet Fever. It was a highly contagious and deadly disease bringing an immediate change to our family. Our family doctor came to our home, so you know it was a long time ago! We all lined up for our shots and were informed we would be quarantine for the next 3 weeks! Imagine, if you will, 3 weeks no smart phones, no cable or satellite TV. No DVDs, streaming of movies or video games. Just 3 weeks trapped with my 7 brothers and sisters! Imagine my mother having to try to keep us all busy! Did all of us survive? Yes! What did we all learn through it? First, we learned the value of prayer, specifically the value of my mother’s prayers! My mother kept a normal routine for us all, getting up at regular

The Value of Familytimes, eating our meals as usual, and our usual chores! We learned the value of family, the value of helping and encouraging one another! You know I think the snow falling outside our windows seemed magical that winter, along with the birds who looked for food out in the cold. Lessons learned! The bigger the crisis, the greater the need, the tougher the solution there, the answer is smaller! As we fast forward to today and our crisis. We have smart phones and TVs, unlimited access to movies and video games, social media that keeps us connected with instant messaging. What have we learned? With social distancing we learn the further the distance the closer we become, the more we help others, we help ourselves. Family is more important than ever and now we know how valuable toilet paper really is! These are times that leaders are born for and heroes step up in! Here at Family First our doors are still closed, but we are still available to our clients and anyone in need here in our community. We continue to connect through social media, the phone and curbside drop-offs and pick-ups at our centers for diapers, car seats, and baby clothes! We continue to learn more about the value of prayer and keeping our faith, hope and trust in God as He answers them! We are excited as we see God continue to supply all of our needs despite all that is going on through this crisis. We thank God for all of you who have answered the call to meet the needs of others!

Let’s Learn Something New!PHENOMENAL PHENOLOGY

Many thanks to Laura Faulkenberry @ MammothSan Manuel PK-12 School for this week’s lesson.

PHENOLOGY SCRAMBLE

“Citizen scientists” from the general public help professional scientists by observing and reporting information to websites. Phenology (“fee-nol-o-gee”) is a huge part of citizen science. Phenology is the study of life cycle (biological) events connected to seasonal changes. A phenophase is a specific event in a plant or animal’s life cycle, such as flowering, fruiting, hibernation, and migration. As desert dwellers, we’re familiar with indications that winter is ending and summer is coming. Some may be welcome – new leaves on the cottonwoods, the bright pink bloom on a hedgehog, turkey vultures soaring again in the sky. Some maybe not so welcome – the full- blown dust devil or rattlesnake that crosses your path. Not all seasonal changes are biological. For example, a dust devil is not alive. In the coloring page below, which one of these seasonal events is NOT* a phenophase?

The USA National Phenology Network (NPN) is a nationwide organization dedicated to providing citizen scientists (including kids) training and opportunities to contribute to phenological monitoring. Nature’s Notebook is one project of the NPN and a current effort that we in southern Arizona can help with is called Flowers for Bats. You observe and report the flowering of agave and saguaros, which will be useful for the study of lesser long-nosed bats who use these flowers. Check this out, sign up and find other ways to participate by going to usanpn.org/natures_notebook

San Manuel Elks Wednesday Night Tacos

Town of Kearny Announces RAD Change of Service The Town of Kearny and RAD have announced a change of service for residential and commercial customers. Eff ective April 15 your new weekly trash and recycling day moving forward is Wednesday. Bulk services changed on March 1 to the second Thursday of each month and may be scheduled before noon on the day prior to your area pick-up date. Commercial services are every Wednesday, starting April 15. Please place both garbage and recycling carts out the night prior or by 6 a.m. on your service day. Allow 3 feet between each cart and 10 feet away from cars, mailboxes, landscape or other items that may interfere with service and 2 feet away from the building. Face cart so lid opens toward the street (handles toward building). Do not overfi ll or place additional garbage on top. Lids must be fully closed. This reduces airborne trash on windy days. Questions? Call Customer Service at 480-983-9100.

San Manuel VFW Meetings Canceled Due to COVID-19, all VFW Post 2767 (San Manuel) meetings are canceled. They will resume when the crisis has passed.

Tri-Community Food Bank is Open The Tri-Community Food Bank located at 108 Redwood Drive in Mammoth continues to be in business. We are observing social distancing.

The thrift shop is closed and is not accepting donations. Call 520-487-2010 for more information.

Wild� re Safety

Much of the southwest is considered a high-hazard fi re environment. Within this hazardous environment are individual homes, and entire communities ill-prepared to survive an intense wildfi re. It is not a question of “if” a wildfi re will occur, but when. The odds of losing human life and property are growing. The Town of Kearny would like to protect you and the community from the dangers of wildfi res. The Fire Chief is very concerned about this upcoming fi re season. Even though we have received more rain than usual, it has caused more weeds. Once the rain stops, the weeds will dry out and this will make for a dangerous fi re season. Please clear weeds, dry grass, dry shrubs or dead trees surrounding your property. Thank you for your support.

Eagle One Veteran Outreach

23-24 Superior Food Bank

The Superior Food Bank will be distributing the food boxes on Thursday and Friday, April 23-24. We open at 3 p.m. each day. NOTICE: we are doing it diff erently this month. We will be doing a ‘drive-through’ method this time. You will line up to the north on Lobb and Porphyry, and proceed to the building. We have signs and plenty of people on hand to guide you. This should go faster than the other way with all the extra people coming. Thank you for your patience.

Mayors from across Pinal County presented a letter to Governor Doug Ducey and the Pinal County Board of Supervisors requesting that COVID-19 positive cases by zip code be released. Mayor Debra Sommers (Kearny), Mayor Joe Dietz (Mammoth) and Mayor Mila Besich (Superior) signed onto the letter asking for the data to be released.

On Sunday, April 12, 2020 the Arizona Department of Health Services released the data by zip code. For the Copper Corridor, the areas showing cases are the Mammoth, San Manuel, Superior and Kearny zip codes showing 1-5 cases as positive in each zip code. You can track the data online: https://bit.ly/3eiXZub The data is critical to

allow first responders to know how many positive cases could be in their service community. Last week there was concern that an employee at Family Dollar in Kearny contracted COVID-19, after a brief stay in the hospital the patient was released and it was confirmed via a Facebook post that he did not have COVID-19. While the data may

show that there are not any positive cases in communities, the virus is still listed as widespread across the state and everyone is reminded to continue to practicing physical distancing, wearing masks, limiting activities outside of the home, washing hands and staying home if you do not

feel well. There are still not enough testing kits to test everyone and many may be carrying the virus but be asymptomatic. This data should be a reminder that the precautions everyone is taking, is working to help flatten the curve and stopping the spread of COVID-19.

According to state law, there are two methods by which police may arrest suspected offenders. The suspect may be physically taken into the department and booked into jail, or the arresting officer may write a citation and release the suspect to appear in court later. All suspects are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. Only criminal citations are listed. All damages are estimates. Activity listed April 5-18.April 13 Curtis Duane Nelson, 22 was arrested in the 100 block of Tilbury Dr. and was charged with possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia. He was cited and released. Calls not listed include: ambulance request (12), traffic stop (2), citizen assist (1), suspicious activity (4), animal/cattle complaint (1), disturbance (3), vacation house check (1), alarm drop (2), agency assist (3), violation of an emergency order (1), trespassing (1), abandoned vehicle (1), found property (1), unwanted subject (2) and welfare check (1).

The Arizona Department of Transportation is replacing the Gila River bridge on State Route 77 in Winkelman on the Gila/Pinal county line. Work began in September 2019 and is scheduled to extend to the summer of 2021. Traffic is restricted to a single lane in alternating directions using a temporary traffic signal, and a 15-foot vehicle-width limit is in place. Drivers should expect delays. In addition to a new concrete bridge, the project also includes guardrail and pavement markings.

Vehicles should proceed through the work zone with caution, slow down and watch for construction personnel and equipment.Stay InformedSchedules are subject to change based on weather and other unforeseen factors. For more information, please call the ADOT Bilingual Project Information Line at 1-855-712-8530. For real-time highway conditions statewide, visit ADOT’s Traveler Information Site at www.az511.gov, follow ADOT on Twitter (@ArizonaDOT) or call 511, except while driving.

Work continues on Winkelman Bridge replacement; artistic embellishments now visible
