Yucca District E-News for...
August 22, 2019

This week I welcomed my new Council Assistant, Shannon Beck. Ms. Beck is a transplant from the Midwest where she worked for a local police department. Over the next few weeks as Ms. Beck learns to perform her new duties there will be a transition from my former Council Assistant, Shelli Henson to Shannon Beck. Ms. Henson will now be staffing Councilmember Ray Malnar exclusively. Please join me in welcoming Shannon to the Council Assistant team.
 
This week I had the pleasure of attending the annual Fiesta Bowl luncheon representing Glendale along with Mayor Jerry Weiers and Councilmember Ray Malnar. Coach Urban Meyers was the guest speaker and he did an amazing job. The take away from his remarks was that great teams have members that put the team before self. Glendale is the proud host of the Fiesta Bowl each January. The history of the games played in Glendale has been outstanding. You can be sure that when you attend the Fiesta Bowl you are watching the very best of college football.

It's still very hot so be sure to protect yourselves, your children and your pets when outside. Please do not leave children or pets in the car. 
  
Sincerely,
