    Camp Verde AZ (June 30, 2017) – Monday, July 10 starting at 4:30p join Astronomers of the Verde Valley on the Library balcony to view the activity on the sun’s surface. Then take a seat in the Terracotta Room for a presentation from Dr. Jeffrey Hall, Director of Lowell Observatory

    The Astronomers of the Verde Valley are well-known in Camp Verde for their star-gazing and dark sky programs, but what about looking at the sun? Did you know that they also have special sun-viewing telescopes that allow people to see activity happening on the sun’s surface? Come and look for yourself on Monday, July 10 at 4:30p. Then, cool off inside the library and give your attention to Dr. Hall as he makes a connection between solar activity and our planet’s climate.

    Dr. Jeffrey Hall has served as Director of Lowell Observatory since June 2010. He is part of the team working on Lowell’s Solar Stellar Spectrograph project, a long-term project monitoring solar and stellar activity cycles. The project aims to lend an astronomical perspective to solar influences on terrestrial climate.

    City Council Weighs ATV Ban Ordinance Proposal
    By Tommy Acosta
    The Sedona City Council at its May 23, 2023 meeting took no action on a proposed ordinance that would ban all off-road vehicles from being driven on state-owned public roads or streets owned by the city. The ordinance, spearheaded by Sedona Mayor Scott Jablow on the premise that such vehicles pose a risk to the health, safety and welfare of the community, would impose heavy fines to anyone driving the ATVs or OHVs on city streets, including S.R. 179 and S.R. 89A. ATV rental companies have admitted that such vehicles are not intended or designed to be driven on paved roads, yet, in Arizona, they are allowed to do so under Arizona Revised Statute 28-1174 (4B). Opponents against the ordinance argued at the meeting that if adopted the ban would cripple the ATV rental industry in Sedona and cause much hardship to the owners and employees, as it would effectively, as written, destroy their livelihood.
