The 2016 Carefree Desert Garden calendars are now available at Carefree Town Hall, 8 Sundial Circle, Carefree, and they are gorgeous! If you like to take pictures, visit the Gardens.  Our entry period for the Gardens photo contest is January.  Your picture could be in the 2017 calendar.

Let's show our appreciation of former Mayor David Schwan, and let's help find a cure for ALS!) 

 

Mega kudos to the current Town Council and their positions on buying versus leasing.  Mike Farrar could not have been more accurate with his statement, “that every investment is fought over, vetted, and earned”.  As one who wanted to protect the Cash Reserves, I vividly recall the discussions on whether to pay off the fire station and engine along with early discussions if the Town should expand the Town Hall with new Council Chambers.  Congratulations on the Planning Award.  May the Council keep up the good work.

John and Ted:

As we have come to expect, you two did a great job at the November 11, 2015, Veterans Day event.  Having been there, I know how much work is involved.  It gets bigger and better each year…congratulations and many, many thanks.

(Lyn's note: As always, there will be a Carefree Truth issue on the Carefree Veteran's Day event.  But the videos take time, so it will probably be sometime next week.)

 

 

Lyn, I'm getting close to finishing the Black Mountain Coffee Shop, 2 weeks plus or minus.

Thank you,

Martin Holmes
