"Charity
Dine-Off"
Contest Starts
Feb. 13
at Silver Spur Saloon &
Eatery
Order special entrees to benefit Cave
Creek Film & Arts Festival, Cave Creek Merchants Chamber
of Commerce, Cave Creek Museum, and Desert Foothills
Theater
Contest
runs
through March 31
- Non-profit with the most entrees ordered will win $500
(CAVE
CREEK) – The owners of Silver Spur Saloon & Eatery have
come up with a unique way to help local non-profits. The
"Charity Dine-Off"
event begins Friday, February 13 and pits four local
non-profits against each other in a fun contest to see
which charity's dish receives the most orders over a
six-week period. Silver Spur Saloon is located in the
heart of Cave Creek at 6245 E. Cave Creek Road in
Frontier Town.
"This
year is even more challenging for our local non-profits
since donations are down and they are no longer
receiving funding from the Town," said Marc Peagler,
proprietor of Silver Spur Saloon & Eatery. "We hope this
fun contest will increase awareness of each non-profit's
mission and raise much-needed funds for them."
The
restaurant's chef, Dave LaFave, created four new dishes
for each of the non-profits, priced at $15.95 each.
Representatives from the charities tasted the dishes and
then by means of a straw draw, chose their dish and
named it.
Each
time a patron orders one of the special dishes, 10
percent of that dish will be donated to the appropriate
non-profit. In addition, the charity with the most
dishes ordered at the end of the contest will win an
extra $500. The contest ends on
Tuesday, March 31 |

The
Spirit of the Old West Alive Mary Brown Interview
Join us February 18th at Bison Western Museum
(SCOTTSDALE)
–
The Spirit of the Old West Alive lecture series
continues February 18th, the fifth in the
series to honor people who have “kept the spirit of the
old west alive”. Mary Brown founder of Festival of the
West has certainly contributed to keeping the spirit of
the old west alive! She will join us as we discuss her
life and the last 19 years running the largest and
highest rated western festival in the country.
Festival has awarded the coveted Cowboy Spirit Award to
the likes of Roy Rogers & Dale Evans, Gene Autry, Ben
Johnson, Rex Allen, Jack Palance, Shirley Jones, and
John Wayne. This year’s recipients will be Hugh O’Brien
and Rex Allen Jr. Mary’s memories of all of these
celebrities and more will fill the evening’s
discussion and pictures. Many of the volunteers, family
and friends who have known Mary will be on hand to
contribute their memories as well. (www.festivalofthewest.com)
The
Spirit of the Old West Alive (SOWA) was founded by
LeeAnn Sharpe with the purpose of collecting oral
histories. “Too often we see the passing of significant
people in our history without their stories being
recorded. It means so much more to hear their stories
directly from the individual. To hear their voice, to
see their body language and pick up on their
personality,” Sharpe comments. These video taped
interviews will be available as DVD’s and online for
research.
“We
honor those people who have impacted our western
experience. Mary Brown and her wonderful festivals have
introduced western history to a whole new generation,”
Sharpe comments. “These are delightful gatherings for
anyone interested in networking in the western world.”

Scott MacIntyre: Another
Incredible Talent Out of Arizona Makes the Top 36 Of
American Idol
If you are not a fan
of American Idol you might give it another look. When
they go through the run of bad contestants in the early
shows I too tune out. But now they have narrowed the
field to some unbelievable talent. And one Scottsdale
Arizona contestant has made the Top 36 cut. What a
beautiful story this talented young man has to tell.
Even if he doesn’t make it to the end of Idol, I thank
them for bringing him to the attention of the world. He
will be a shining star no matter what else Idol brings.

Astronomical Event
4,000 Years Ago Depicted on Desert Floor
By LeeAnn Sharpe
Pete Norris is a man
on a mission. His mission is to document and save
ancient geoglyphs in the desert along Carefree Highway
in Desert Hills AZ that are in
the path of future
development. Geoglyphs are drawings made by ancient
peoples on the ground, in this case using various size
and types of rocks to form a pattern and tell a story.
Norris is an expert at
crytanalysis, or the art of breaking codes. He believes
that the geoglyphs he found in north Phoenix depict a
known astronomical event some 4,000 years ago. The
pattern and number of rocks clearly describe, to the
trained eye, where the event happened and for how long.
It tells of a meteor event, the number of meteor showers
and the direction they crossed the ancient skies. The
event is known to astronomers and has been recorded
elsewhere in history on pottery and wall art and is
documented to have occurred in 3,200B.C. “The sequences
and the counts line up with this meteor event,” he said.

It is in all our interest for Carefree to be known as a
citizen friendly community. Improved transparency in
our local government will help build community goodwill
and encourage resident involvement in local issues.
Transparency in government ensures our elected
officials are acting in our interest. It also advances
the opportunity for productive ideas and healthy
debate. More effective communication and proactive
collaboration between the government and the
community on issues of importance is a positive step
toward a more transparent government.

An acclaimed new
play in the style of The Vagina Monologues, My
First Time features four actors telling real stories
– from the hysterical to the heartbreaking – about first
sexual experiences. In 1998, nearly a decade before the
rise of blogging, a Web site was created that allowed
people to anonymously share their own stories about
their “First Times.” The site became an instant
phenomenon with more than 40,000 stories pouring in from
around the globe that were silly, sweet, absurd, funny,
straight, gay, shy, sexy and everything in between.
These true stories and all of the unique characters in
them are brought to life in this unforgettable play
written by Ken Davenport and starring Valley actors
Roxanne Garcia, Vi Flaten, Joshua Yeatts and Dion
Johnson.
These performances
contain adult themes and language.

License plate law change coming Jan. 1
License plate
frames are something most drivers probably don't
think about much, but they'd better start paying
more attention.
Starting January 1st,
frames become illegal if they obscure the state
name on the license plate. Police will be able
to stop drivers if "Arizona"
isn't clearly visible at the top of the plate.
Violators can be hit with an average fine of
$135, plus court fees, depending on the city
where the violation is discovered.

Victory is won not in miles, but in inches.
Win a little now, hold your ground, and
later, win a little more.— Louis L’Amour
-
When you tug at a single thing in nature,
you find it attached to the rest of the
world. — John Muir
-
Laughter is the sun that drives
winter from the human face. — Victor
Hugo
-
”Whatever you give a
woman, she will make
greater.”
If you give her sperm,
she'll give you a baby.
If you give her a house,
she'll give you a home.
If you give her
groceries, she'll give
you a meal.
If you give her a smile,
she'll give you her
heart.
She multiplies and
enlarges what is given
to her.
So, if you give her any
crap, be ready to
receive a ton of shit.

production of. King Henry V
by
William Shakespeare directed by Davis McCallum
Phoenix:
March
26 – 29, 2009 Tucson: April 2 – 5, 2009 Young,
restless and ambitious, Henry V inherits a troubled
crown and seeks to secure his position at home by
launching a hasty invasion of France. The charismatic
warrior King’s aggressive pursuit of the French crown
earns him iconic status, uniting England and France and
briefly banishing the civil strife that will long
outlive him. This Shakespearean epic expertly balances
the thrilling heroics of battle with the painful and
complex reactions of men who are sometimes unsure of the
justice of their cause. KING HENRY V is a rousing,
fascinating story about the power of courage and the
price of glory. |

Late Nite Catechism
By Vicki Quade & Maripat Donovan, Ongoing; call for dates and times,
Stage 2, Scottsdale Center for the Performing Arts, Single ticket
price: $36, The longest-running play in the Valley is still in a
class by itself! Audience members are the students in catechism
class, and Patti Hannon is "Sister" in this hilarious interactive
comedy. You better be on your best behavior, or else Sister is
likely to put you in the corner‹on stage! Every performance is
unique and will appeal to all, regardless of one¹s faith.
Late Nite Catechism II: Sometimes We Feel Guilty Because We Are
Guilty By Maripat
Donovan, Ongoing; call for dates and times,
Stage 2, Scottsdale Center for the Performing Arts, Single ticket
price: $36, That¹s right, the fun continues in Sister¹s second
catechism class! You don¹t need to graduate from the first class to
enjoy this one; Sister will give extra attention to her slower
students. Sister has felt banners, a filmstrip, handouts, historical
facts and hysterical insights to explain every nun¹s goal: getting
into heaven and bringing along as many of the faithful as possible.
Using a special version of Chutes and Ladders to demonstrate her
point, Sister tells us where we¹ve gone wrong, and no one is excused
from her firm belief that "sometimes we feel guilty because we are
guilty."

Battle of
Picacho Peak
On April 15th
1862 the Civil
War’s most
western battle
was fought
approximately 50
miles north of
Tucson at
Picacho Peak in
what was then
New Mexico
Territory. There
were 3 Union
casualties and
no confirmed
Confederate
casualties. For
years the Civil
War Re-enactors
returned to
Picacho Peak
State Park to
re-fight this
battle fought
almost 150 years
ago. This annual
event includes
period
re-enactment of
not only the
battle but also
the camp and
lifestyle of the
civil war
period.
The following
year, the Union
divided New
Mexico Territory
along the
Arizona New
Mexico border,
Prescott was the
provisional
capitol. The
skirmish at
Picacho Pass
itself is
considered the
high-water mark
of the
Confederate
West.
Alas for Picacho
Peak State Park,
funding
constraints have
forced the
battle to be
moved to the
Pioneer Village
one mile south
of Anthem AZ.
The Battle will
be fought in the
Pioneer Village
complex March 14
& 15.
Pioneer Village
is 1 mile north
of the Carefree
Highway (State
Route 74) about
30 miles North
of Phoenix. The
museum
celebrated its
Grand Opening on
February 15,
1969, with Phase
1 of the Living
History Village.
The Pioneer
Living History
Village is
dedicated to the
original
founders' dreams
that our Western
heritage in
Arizona is
preserved for
future
generations to
see. The village
houses 30
historic
buildings from
the 1880s to the
turn of the
century. Most of
them can be
viewed and
experienced by
the public. We
welcome field
trips from
schools, home
schools, tour
agents,
destination
planners and
communities -
The Village is a
"Classroom
Without Walls".
In 2009 alone
over 600 school
children have
experienced the
Pioneer Village
classroom.
Dedicated
volunteers keep
this historical
site a “living”
history. Thank
you one and all.
Pioneer Village
can be reached
