    logo_ksbSedona AZ (August 24, 2016) – The topic of “Arizona Water Sentinels and Water Quality in the Verde Watershed” will be featured at KSB’s Wednesday September 14th Preserving the Wonder™ Speaker Series. 

    Members, residents and visitors are all welcome to join Keep Sedona Beautiful (“KSB”) at 5:30 p.m. at its historic Pushmataha Center on 360 Brewer Road.  The evening will include complimentary appetizers donated by El Rincon Restaurante Mexicano and refreshments provided by KSB. 

    20160826_OakCreekAccording to Jennifer Martin, Water Sentinels Program Coordinator for the Sierra Club – Grand Canyon Chapter, “The Verde is one of the most ecologically significant watersheds in the State, as well as the source of drinking water for millions of people.  It is also one of the most threatened.  The work of the Arizona Water Sentinels helps track water quality on the river so management agencies have hard information on which they can base their decisions and plans.”

    Ms. Martin will discuss how the program works to protect, improve and restore Arizona rivers and streams by promoting volunteer water quality monitoring, public education and citizen action for clean water within the state.

    Since its establishment in 2006, the Arizona Water Sentinels program has trained, equipped and fielded hundreds of volunteers who have participated in water quality and flow monitoring, stream clean-ups, and stream restoration projects across the state.  It seeks to organize people at the grass roots level to build communities of effective advocates for watershed protection in Arizona. The organization has maintained a continuous set of data on the Verde River since 2006.

    The Bloody Machine
    By Tommy Acosta
    What is a life anyway? A single “life?” Is it nothing more than a collection of emotions and thoughts, reverberating pain and pleasure, hopes, dreams and fear? Are we merely meat; flesh and blood creations encapsulating what we believe is a soul? Or is a single life the microcosm and macrocosm of human life on earth, each one of us a unique representation of who we believe we are and the whole of humanity at once? We are born. We grow old. We die. Everything we experience is but a dream between those two points. Or are we manifestations of a Divine Creator, every one of us complete in the image that we were made? So, we are told.
