Opportunity Zones The Opportunity Zone program was created to revitalize economically distressed communities using private invest- ments rather than taxpayer dollars, with the investors gaining certain tax advantages. The proposed Opportunity Zone regulations were released in October 2018 for comment and a hearing held.

Q: The current language does not address use of the Opportunity Zones program on tribal trust lands. Is this a program that the Community can utilize? President Martin Harvier: If you look at the Opportu- nity Zone map (see graphic), it designates the entire Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community as an Opportunity Zone. The problem is that the Opportunity Zone language does not include administer- ing the program on tribal trust lands.

March 21, 2019 O'odham Action News 13 Skeg tas! Good Day! My name is Kaily LaRue Toney. I am the daughter of Kathy Johnson-Toney and Theodus “Odie” Toney. I am 22 years old and currently a senior at Grand Canyon University. I have entered the halfway mark of my reign and I am so excited for the next half of my journey as Miss Salt River.

My Platform I have focused my platform on mental health. There are many who are experiencing mental illnesses; I see it as a huge issue within our Community that holds many of our young people back. I have had my struggles with depression, anxiety and self-doubt and know the pain that it brings. It is an issue not often talked about in the Community. Over time, I hope it can become a topic that is not pushed to the side; but rather, we can embrace the positive change that can come from treating mental illnesses. It should not be an illness that is allowed to overcome our people. During the next few months, I will be planning an event alongside Miss Salt River First Attendant Veronica Flores that will focus on mental health and culture, merging our platforms to uplift and inspire the young women in our Community. I am very grateful to hold the title Miss Salt River. It has been challenging, but through it all, I know I have grown and have become empowered with every event and each person I meet. I am very excited for the next few months.

Future Participants I encourage the young women who are thinking about running for the Miss Salt River title to go for it because [if you leave your comfort zone, you’ll find] growth that you never expected to happen for yourself. Please reach out to me through the pageant committee for any questions or if you would like to know more about my personal experience so far. I would love to meet you all! It feels good to be surrounded by good energy and to be able to take that energy and give back to my people and everyone I come in contact with. Ske:g Tas. My Message to the Community name is I hope that with every event I have Kennise attended thus far, I have represented Aurora Rose you, my people, in the best way.

I’m a fresh- man at Mountain View High School and I hope to attend BYU Hawaii to study marine biology.

Thus Far As Jr. Miss Salt River, I have the opportunity to visit different tribes and learn about their tradi- tions through pageants, conferences and special events. The highlight of my reign so far would be attending the Fifth Annual Miss and Mr. Indian Scott- sdale Community College pageant. This event meant the world to me because my brother and I were able to hold a title together. There I got to hear him say his farewells and pass his title on after his successful year. We were able to lean on each other for support, see each other at events, and do what we love: to represent our Community.

My Platform The platform I have chosen is “Empowering and Inspiring the Next Generation.” I feel it’s important to let the youth in our Community know their self-worth, help find their identity, and know they can reach great heights with hard work and dedi- cation.

Future Participants I would like to encourage the young ladies in our Community to begin thinking about running for this prestigious leadership role. It allows you to travel and gain new experiences, but more importantly it helps our young women to become outspoken, strong, educated and culturally aware. I encourage all young ladies ages 13 to 16 to enter the 27th Annual Jr. Miss Salt River pageant and to attend our recruitment sessions. If you have any questions, please contact our Miss Salt River Committee.

To the Community I look forward to the New Year with new opportunities and the upcoming 2019 pageant. It’s my honor to represent the Onk Akimel O’odham and Xalychidom Piipaash as Jr. Miss Salt River 2018-2019. Thank you, and many blessings to you all in the New Year.

Below the Rim stayed on top of their game and took the championship title, while SR Visak took third place in their division. They had some tougher competition with teams who overwhelmed them in height, but they never gave up and gave it their all. Below the Rim - Noah Lasiloo, Kael Andrews, Nashoba Redhouse, Jojo Chavez, Sidney Klock, Devon Strong, Father-and-son coaches Kent and Keith Josh Correa, RJ Lopez, Silah Smith, Salese Schurz, Lana Shirley, and Makenna Douglas (not pictured).

For the coaches, the opportunity to work, have fun and pass on “old school” basketball knowledge to the players is their reward.

You are all appreciated, and we thank you for giving the coaches the opportunity to work with your children. To all the extended families who made it to Camp Verde to support the teams, we truly appre- ciate your being there. Your presence motivated the players, along with all the cheers! Thank you.
