Mesnard As our state and nation grapple with the emerging challenge of how to overcome the global COVID-19 pandemic and resulting economic crisis, it is more important than ever for Arizona to resist the temptation to abandon the free-market principles…

We’re staying home, missing our club meetings and friends, and needing a lot more hugs. We’ve had to learn how to breathe through a mask—something that isn’t easy, because sometimes it fogs up our glasses.…
Judee Curtis “So many dances to teach and so little time.” I’ve said this many times, but I didn’t realize how true it was until March 13. It seems like forever since I last taught dances to the loyal dancers who stay in Arizona year-round. Plus, “Goodbyes” and “See you next January!” were not said…
