A mystery vandal is trashing political signs around Oracle. The same thing happened two years ago when several signs were ripped up and thrown in porta potties at the time of the Oracle Run. The perpetrator remains unidentified and is still at large.
So who's responsible is an open question. Messing with political signs is a felony under AZ law...which may be part of the thrill experienced by the sign vandal There has been speculation that because all the signs stolen, bent up and trashed support Democrats, the other party (and maybe its MAGA wing) is responsible. One such openly MAGAite accosted me on our own property two years ago, screaming, completely unhinged, when I declined to allow posting of a Trump/Pence sign across from the OHS.

Race Director Darrell Klesch reveals Michael Moore's charcoal rendering of Oracle's majestic oak puntuated landscape. (Oracle runner Jane Redmann drew the insert!) Klesch and Kaz just installed the work on The Message Board next to the Oracle Post Office. Topping the run off will be award presentations of framed Michael Moore prints to triumphant runners (and walkers). The tough 10K run is one of Oracle's premier annual events drawing an appreciative audience from near and far.
Put composer/conductor Brian Holman (pictured here with Kaz) together with Steve Cook (Oracle Piano Society), Sharon Holnback (Triangle L), and Oracle Historical Society leaders (John Hernandez, Cinnamon Schiek, Kevin Armbrust), Damien Clinco (Arizona Historical Society) and what do you get? A remarkable co-mingling of talent and energy that produced a multi-media production for the ages right in our own back yard.
If there's such a thing as a classic Oracle creative collaboration, back-to-back performances of "The Mine with the Iron Door" at the Triangle L and OrCA, accompanied by a talented ensemble of young musicians, gave exhilirating life to Holman's score (with Steve Cook on the weather machine, of course). |
AuthorKaz and I moved to Oracle in 1979. The house we bought dated to the late 1940s. With little advance knowledge of the place, we set out to build a new life together, intending to settle in and raise a family. Categories
