Sprinkles Cupcakes
Supporting the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation Sprinkle some money for a limited edition cupcake and a worthy cause (SCOTTSDALE, Ariz.) – Sprinkles Cupcakes and MIX 96.9 DJ Chris Parker have partnered up in order to raise money and promote awareness for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. From June 8th through June 10th, 100% of the proceeds from Sprinkles’ Triple Chocolate cupcake will go directly to supporting cystic fibrosis. Decorated with the letter “C,” the limited edition triple chocolate is a brand new flavor from Sprinkles and is made of Belgian dark chocolate cake with bittersweet chocolate frosting topped with bittersweet chocolate ganache, a delectable treat for a great cause. “There are about 1,000 new cases diagnosed each year,” says Sprinkles President and Co-Founder Charles Nelson. “This is the second year Sprinkles Cupcakes has joined forces with AZ’s Finest to raise funds for Cystic Fybrosis. We are thrilled to continue to help fund research for a cure.” AZ's Finest is an elite group of Arizona’s most prominent people that honor professional and charitable achievements. Chris Parker was selected as one of 20 single business men and women to be honored in 2009. All honorees have pledged their commitment to AZ’s Finest crusade to individually raise a minimum of $3,000 throughout the campaign in honor of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. “It’s a tremendous privilege to be an honoree, but even more so to see the change and progress in the individuals with this disease,” says Parker. “Children and adults living with Cystic Fibrosis are leading healthier lives and living longer because the strides the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation has accomplished.” A longtime fan of Sprinkles’ delicious treats, Parker is excited to have The Original Cupcake Bakery on board again after the success of last year’s limited edition cupcake fundraiser for 2008 AZ’s Finest Honoree ABC 15’s Kaley O’Kelley, which raised $3,000 for Cystic Fibrosis. “Apart from their popular desserts, Sprinkles is well respected for their philanthropic dedication,” Parker mentions. “The Founders, Candace and Charles Nelson are truly to thank, as their allegiance and passion are truly unparalleled.” For more information visit www.Sprinkles.com or call (480) 970-4321. Sprinkles is located at 4501 N. Scottsdale Road on the northeast corner of Scottsdale and Camelback roads, across from Scottsdale Fashion Square. ABOUT CYSTIC FIBROSIS FOUNDATION The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation of Arizona, headquartered in Phoenix, Ariz., a non-profit donor-supported organization, is dedicated to assuring the development of the means to cure and control cystic fibrosis and to improving the quality of life for those with the disease. The Foundation is the leading organization in the United States devoted to cystic fibrosis. Cystic fibrosis is the #1 life shortening disease of children and young adults in the U.S. It is an inherited chronic disease that affects the lungs and digestive system of about 30,000 children and adults in the United States (70,000 worldwide). A defective gene and its protein product cause the body to produce unusually thick, sticky mucus that clogs the lungs and leads to life-threatening lung infections; and obstructs the pancreas and stops natural enzymes from helping the body break down and absorb food. While today there exists no cure, an arsenal of remedies have been produced to help treat the disease, dramatically extending the life expectancy of people living with CF. For more information about Cystic Fibrosis Foundation visit www.cff.org. ABOUT SPRINKLES CUPCAKES Sprinkles Cupcakes are a deliciously sophisticated update on an American classic. Baked fresh in small batches throughout the day, Sprinkles cupcakes are handcrafted from the finest ingredients and contain no preservatives, trans fats or artificial flavors.

“This is our way of expressing our gratitude to all those who have worked hard to protect our freedom and to those who have put their lives in danger to keep us safe,” Peagler said. “And you don’t have to be active to qualify for the discount. Just show us your identification or a medal or certificate. This also applies to non-uniform law enforcement employees.”
Peagler said the entire community is invited to join in on the fun. The weekend schedule follows:

Valley View
Community Food Bank nurtures ‘neighbors helping
neighbors’ program at new site in Surprise
JOY SLAGOWSKI DAILY NEWS-SUN
Surprise’s new food bank is introducing itself to
the community with an open house and food drive.
"We want the community to know this is a place
for them to come if they need help or to volunteer,"
said Director Jesse Ramirez. "And the main thing is
for the city of Surprise to come out and fill our
warehouse with donated food."
"It’s neighbors helping neighbors," Ramirez said.
Valley View Community Food Bank, which opened its
Surprise location (11081 N. Milgard Way, just
southwest of Dysart and Varney roads) in March, is
hosting the event from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday.
The independent food bank started two years ago
at 11115 W. Nevada Ave. in Youngtown.
The grand opening will feature a ribbon cutting
with the Surprise Regional Chamber of Commerce at
10:30 a.m., and live musical entertainment.
Hot dogs and tours of the warehouse and facility
also will take place.
The "Fire Up Freedom" fire truck will be on site.
Ramirez said the Surprise Fire Department is
conducting food drives at each of its locations —
22443 N. 163rd Ave., 16645 W. Clearview Blvd., 18600
N. Reems Road, 15440 N. Cotton Lane, 15517 N.
Parkview Place, 16750 N. Village Drive East and
16171 W. Cactus Road — where residents can drop off
nonperishables.
Donations help more than 300 customers per day at
the food bank locations, Ramirez said.
The food bank also is introducing a program May
23 that will allow anyone to come in and get a bag
of fresh produce and bread, no questions asked, only
with the request they share with others in need.
A new program with which the food bank is
affiliated is making that possible, Ramirez said.
"We don’t want any produce to go bad, and we are
increasing the amount coming in and need to share
that with the community," Ramirez said.
Ramirez said he hopes the open house will inspire
more people to volunteer, either as individuals or
as groups.
"We would love to have 150 to 200 more
volunteers," Ramirez said. "We had 180 Boy Scouts
come in and do a project a couple of weeks ago."

SUDDEN
CARDIAC DEATH LEADING CAUSE OF DEATH IN YOUNG ATHLETES
MORE THAN 300 YOUNG ATHLETES IN THE U.S. DIE SUDDENLY
44th ANNUAL TOPS (TEAM OF PHYSICIANS FOR
STUDENTS) FREE PHYSICALS MAY 2ND,
SUNNYSLOPE HIGH SCHOOL (35 W. Dunlap, Phoenix)
Founded by Dr. Paul M. Steingard in 1965, nearly 3000 high school
student athletes receive free physicals through this program
annually
Major sponsors include Arizona Osteopathic Medical Association,
Arizona Heart Institute, Midwestern University, John C. Lincoln
Healthcare Foundation
PHOENIX, AZ— While ECGs are used regularly in pre-screening athletes in Europe, particularly in Italy, debate has been ongoing as to whether the United States should call for more rigorous and broad health screening of athletes. The American Heart Association recommends deeper examination only if a first-line physical and family history raises questions or issues. The TOPS (Team of Physicians for Students) is addressing this issue by offering free physical exams, with cardiac screening, to Arizona student athletes. The cardiac screenings, which include an electrocardiogram (EKG) and echocardiogram (ECHO), are based on a 20-year Italian program that dramatically reduced the incidence of sudden death in young athletes. This year’s event is Saturday, May 2nd at Sunnyslope High School, (35 W. Dunlap in Phoenix). For additional information, contact Betty Toothman, Steingard Medical Group, 602.336.7840 or www.aztops.org.
“Traditional thinking cites the high cost of EKGs and Echocardiograms as being prohibitive,” Dr. Paul M. Steingard, D.O., founder of the program now known as TOPS, explained. “The cost of those tests can range up to $1000, when done by private physicians. When done in mass by volunteers, there is no cost to the athlete. Every student athlete receives an EKG, which is read by a volunteer cardiologist from the Arizona Heart Institute. Last year, six of the more than 2300 students tested at Sunnyslope were found to have cardiac related issues; 95 others had high blood pressure and an additional 22 had a variety of other medical concerns. Two other TOPS programs were held last year in Maricopa County drawing an additional 1300 students.”
Forty-four years ago, Paul Steingard, D.O., a local osteopathic physician and father of four, realized that many of his teenage patients were playing sports with serious injuries. He believed that something should be done to protect these young people from possibly permanent injuries. Thus was born what is now the TOPS (Team of Physicians for Students) Program. Working in conjunction with the Arizona Osteopathic Medical Association (AOMA), which took over sponsorship of the program 15 years ago, and sponsors like Arizona Heart Institute, John C. Lincoln Healthcare Foundation and Midwestern University, the program has grown through the years to reach nearly 3000 students throughout Maricopa County. Thanks to the foresight of these sponsors, student athletes are now being diagnosed early with problems ranging from vision or hearing problems to more serious problems like potentially life threatening cardiac conditions.
“What we were finding,” Dr. Paul Steingard explained, “was that many students from lower income families could not afford the physicals that were required to participate in sports. Some of these kids were tremendous athletes but their parents did not have insurance. When kids do not participate in sports, they may put their energies elsewhere. We figured giving back to the community in this way was a ‘win-win’ situation. Of course, I never realized it would get so big or that we would have other TOPS programs throughout the country.”
Altogether in 2008 the TOPS program in Arizona screened 3588 student athletes. The Glendale Union High School District, realizing the value of this program, provides the physical facilities and considerable resources including printing, announcements and manpower. Additionally, TOPS partners with the Maricopa County Health Department, Physicians Physical Therapy Service, Arrowhead Hospital, Gilbert Hospital, Phillips Medical, Gateway Community College and numerous other groups for resources and volunteers. The Valley of the Sun Chapter of the National Football Foundation coordinates the educational component, arranges for event security, and is developing a national training program and promotional campaign.

A beautiful spring evening of art, artists, jewelry, upscale Southwestern culinary treats, wine and fun is in store for guests at Sharlot Hall Museum’s annual An Evening at Sharlot’s Place fundraiser on Saturday, May 9, 3:30 p.m. to 7 p.m.
The event includes a live art auction, an elegant silent auction, a jewelry raffle and an art exhibition complemented by luscious hors d’oeuvres prepared by Á la Carte Catering.
The live auction features the donated works of 31 local and nationally recognized artists, including John Coleman CA, Judith Durr, Joni Falk, Mike Greenfield, Jesse Hummingbird, Russell Houston, Stephen E. Lee, Alex Maldonado, Patricia Mathes, Bill Nebeker CA, Bill Neely, Doug Oliver, Cynthia Rigden, G. Eric Slayton and Rafe Terry.
A “quick draw” with artists Barbara Kimmel-Palmer and Jesse Hummingbird, and a “quick sculpt” with Cynthia Rigden, wood-carver Bill Neely and featured artist Stephen E. Lee are new activities for this year’s event. These works, completed during the evening, will be sold at the live auction.
Other items included in the live auction include a ride in Sharlot Hall’s 1927 Durant Motors Star Four Touring car in Prescott’s Fourth of July parade, a behind-the-scene tour of Museum collections, and a catered dinner in the Museum’s historic Ranch House.
The silent auction will include unique items from local merchants, exceptional selections from Sharlot’s Timeless Treasures gift store, and special gift baskets. An exclusive piece of jewelry will be raffled off. This 48-inch necklace captures the beauty of Arizona. It is crafted from rare sleeping beauty turquoise with apatite and 14-karat gold spacers and features a dramatic horse pendant cast in sterling silver. The necklace will be on display beginning April 1 at Sharlot’s Timeless Treasures Museum Store where raffle tickets are on sale for $10 each and three for $20.
This is a unique opportunity for area residents to meet and greet local artists and to purchase their work at attractive auction prices. Tickets are $40 per person or $60 per couple, and proceeds benefit the Museum. Reservations are required by April 25 and can be made by calling 928-445-3122 ext 15.
Arizona history will come alive at the event with tables hosted by Living History interpreters: Sharlot M. Hall (Blue Rose Theater Director Jody Drake), John C. Frémont (John Langellier, Museum Executive Director), and a young Maynard Dixon (Steve Kile, Prescott Regulators).
One of the highlights of the evening’s exhibition will be a Maynard Dixon watercolor sketch of a cowboy on a running horse that is inscribed by the artist as a gift to Sharlot M. Hall, the Museum’s founder and namesake. The Maynard Dixon exhibit can be seen during the event’s art preview dates, April 27 through May 9.
Dixon, the noted illustrator, landscape, and mural painter of the early 20th-century American West, was a little-known painter from California in 1900 when he came to visit Hall in Prescott. They shared a passion for the arts and deep respect for the beauty of Arizona. Their time together prompted Dixon to declare, “Miss Hall is one worth knowing. In her quiet way she is a heroine.” Their friendship lasted for years. Both were inspired by Arizona and its rich heritage and each went on to play important roles in the history of the arts, Hall with her poetry and Dixon with his paintings.

Late Nite Catechism
By Vicki Quade & Maripat Donovan, Ongoing; call for dates and times,
Stage 2, Scottsdale Center for the Performing Arts, Single ticket
price: $36, The longest-running play in the Valley is still in a
class by itself! Audience members are the students in catechism
class, and Patti Hannon is "Sister" in this hilarious interactive
comedy. You better be on your best behavior, or else Sister is
likely to put you in the corner‹on stage! Every performance is
unique and will appeal to all, regardless of one¹s faith.
Late Nite Catechism II: Sometimes We Feel Guilty Because We Are
Guilty By Maripat
Donovan, Ongoing; call for dates and times,
Stage 2, Scottsdale Center for the Performing Arts, Single ticket
price: $36, That¹s right, the fun continues in Sister¹s second
catechism class! You don¹t need to graduate from the first class to
enjoy this one; Sister will give extra attention to her slower
students. Sister has felt banners, a filmstrip, handouts, historical
facts and hysterical insights to explain every nun¹s goal: getting
into heaven and bringing along as many of the faithful as possible.
Using a special version of Chutes and Ladders to demonstrate her
point, Sister tells us where we¹ve gone wrong, and no one is excused
from her firm belief that "sometimes we feel guilty because we are
guilty."
