CAREFREE TRUTH
Letters from Readers: 8/9/13
(Lyn's note: Please feel free to send us any pictures you'd like included. If your photos are for sale, let us know and we will put them under that category. We have a special section for that purpose. Check out Tom Baker's photos for sale. He's the photographer who took that gorgeous photo in the Carefree Gardens Photo Contest that was both the judges' first pick and the public favorite. It's now featured on the Town of Carefree website, and will be the cover of the 2014 Gardens calendar that will be for sale later this summer at Carefree Town Hall. If anyone would like to buy a print of any of Herbert's photos, all profits will be donated to one of the local non-profit organizations.) Here's the link to this week's Pictures of the Week.

Economic Development Update
by Mayor David Schwan
I want to acknowledge the good work of Council member Melissa Price and Gary Neiss, Town Administrator, to promote economic development in Carefree.
Over the past months these two dedicated people have organized meetings with real estate developers, landlords, business owners, economists and others to understand how Carefree can improve our economic climate. In general these meeting have confirmed Carefree’s plan to move forward. In sum, Carefree should invest in our municipal amenities to attract more people and activities into our commercial core. Businesses will come to serve these people.
We know that new businesses are coming into Carefree such as Brix, Sweet Blessings bakery at 100 Easy Street, and a planned new restaurant in the Galleria building. Melissa and Gary are also talking directly to other potential business investors. They have invited entrepreneurs to come to Carefree for a few hours, walk about Town and see the opportunities in Carefree.
Melissa and Gary have never publicized their efforts to get applause for themselves; they’ve simply done a good, quiet job of trying to improve Carefree.
I hope everyone in the community will support their efforts. Tell your friends and business acquaintances that, “The door is open - Carefree wants your business and we want to you to join us in newfound success.”
(Lyn's note: This was also published in the August edition of the CITYSunTimes and in the 8/2 edition of Carefree Today.)
Melissa:
Again, more kudos for your efforts with producing Carefree Today and I echo the Mayor’s comments about your hard work towards economic development. It is nice to see the effort and not just talk with little action and no results.
I like the inclusion of both “Life as it should be” and “where the sun marks time”.

Proud to be a friend of just a firefighter
Rural Metro provides ambulance service to the Town of Carefree. Rural Metro also employees the people who provide fire protection in the Town of Carefree.
Yesterday, August 4th, Rural Metro filed a pre-arranged Chapter 11 Bankruptcy. The intent of a pre-arranged Chapter 11 Bankruptcy is to reorganize a company’s finances and to continue operations as an ongoing firm.
Rural Metro has advised Carefree that there will be no change in the services provided to Carefree’s citizens during the bankruptcy process.
(Lyn's note: As many of you are aware, the fire station, the fire truck, and the equipment on it belong to the Town of Carefree, and are paid for in full.)
Thank you so much for adding in the volunteer recruitment press release for Foothills Caring Corps. As you know, we lose 45% of our volunteer force during the summer months and are always happy to have new recruits join our team!
Regards,
Debbra Determan
Hi Lyn. Carefree resident, Tom Taylor, was the winner of first prize in the Desert Foothills Photography Contest. I was wondering if you could announce him as winner and publish the attached photograph showing the winning entry. The 2014 contest will be launched in the Fall and we will hopefully increase the number of entrants.
Kind regards.

Congratulations to the Catalos and the Cave Creek Montessori Family!!
Ask any parents of young children what's most important to them in a preschool program, and they'll respond, "That our child is safe, has fun, and learns a lot." For twenty years, Roy and Kathy Catalo, the Valley's preeminent Montessori educators, have partnered with parents to ensure that their children spend their days happily engaged in purposeful activities.
High school sweethearts, the Catalos married in 1985. In the early days of their marriage, Roy worked in real estate while Kathy taught, having earned her degree in early childhood education. In 1988, Kathy earned her Montessori teaching certificate.
Once they started a family, the Catalos wanted to have more control over their lives and began looking at opportunities to buy or start their own business. As it happened, one afternoon Roy was playing basketball in his driveway with some neighborhood children when his father dropped by. Seeing how much fun Roy and the children were having, he casually suggested that Roy and Kathy open a school. Since that had been Kathy's dream all along, the rest, as they say, is history.
It took almost two years to find a good fit, but when Kathy's mentor agreed to sell Arcadia Montessori North, the Catalos jumped at the opportunity. They renamed the school Paradise Valley Montessori, and in just a few years, grew the school from 33 students, ages 3-6, to nearly 250, ranging from preschool to third grade. In search of more family time and a more intimate school, they sold Paradise Valley Montessori in 1998.
Just a few months later, Roy came across the perfect site for their new school, a 2.5-acre property - - convenient to Cave Creek, North Phoenix, and North Scottsdale - - with a neat slump block house, a big old barn and large grassy field out front.
Cave Creek Montessori opened that August with nine students, two goats, and a horse. The school did double duty that first year, serving as the Catalo family residence as well. Enrollment grew steadily as word spread about this remarkable school where children developed self-confidence and concentration well beyond their peers.
In 2004, two new classrooms were added. The new wing blends in seamlessly with the original structure, maintaining its elegant lines and home-like warmth. All the classrooms are large and airy, and each has a canopy-covered wooden deck just outside.
Cave Creek Montessori continues to flourish, and Kathy and Roy look forward to their next twenty years in Montessori. When not at school, they're golfing, exercising or traveling - - and almost always together. Roy serves as a director of the Maricopa County Sheriff Department's Youth Assistance Foundation. This year, he's chairing the Toy Drive, which will provide 4,000 toys for needy children.
With their two daughters now grown, they've rededicated themselves to Dr. Montessori's vision, "...That humanity which is revealed in all its intellectual splendor during the sweet and tender age of childhood should be respected with a kind of religious veneration. It is like the sun which appears at dawn or a flower just beginning to bloom. Education cannot be effective unless it helps a child to open up himself to life." Thanks to Kathy and Roy, thousands of young Valley children opened up to life, and as a result, will lead more fulfilling and productive lives. And that's something to celebrate.
ImagesAZ Magazine Expands Distribution to 46,500 magazines
Beginning October 2013, the local magazine will have an expanded distribution of 46,500 magazines in two separate regions.
For more than 13 years, ImagesAZ magazine has been the premiere lifestyle publication in the north Valley. Written to inform, inspire and entertain, the magazine's aim is to showcase the community's personality through high-quality storytelling. The content is kept local and relevant - and written with integrity and style. As a result, no other magazine resonates with local families and residents like ImagesAZ. Readers look forward to its arrival and typically keep each piece for months after its publication. This is because readers engage with the magazine: they read the stories, they see the advertisements, and they discuss it with friends and neighbors.
Beginning October 2013, ImagesAZ magazine's distribution will increase to 46,500 area households.
- Anthem/New River/Tramonto edition will remain at 16,500.
- Carefree/Cave Creek/North Scottsdale edition will increase from 18,500 to 30,000.
"At ImagesAZ, we take a lot of pride in providing a service to the community," says ImagesAZ publisher and owner Shelly Spence. "We are thrilled to be expanding our reach and, therefore, to be uniting more residents, business owners and personalities in the community."
In addition, ImagesAZ has gone the extra mile to back our reach with a verifiable audit. Anyone can say their publication reaches a certain number of households, but we can back it up through the industry's most trusted independent auditor, Alliance for Audited Media.
If you have any questions regarding information in this press release, please contact ImagesAZ at shelly@imagesaz.com.
