Last week was busy but entirely worthwhile. With the Mayor of Glendale and Chair of Fighter Country Partnership and others who are very knowledgeable of Luke AFB issues, I participated in an editorial board meeting with "Luke Forward Now" as our subject. Next day attended a Governor Brewer hosted press conference on the same subject. The following day, with the past chair of Fighter Country, I briefed the AZ Chamber of Commerce on our efforts to get our businesses and citizens to demonstrate this State's support for Luke being selected as the second training site for the F-35.
Although Luke and the F-35 were the primary subjects for the early part of the week, the Cincinnati Reds cornered the second half. The city and others sponsored two nights of events to commemorate the opening of the Reds practice fields and clubhouse. We are fortunate to call the Reds neighbors as they are a first class outfit. We are now finished with the construction of the city-owned portion of the Goodyear Recreational Complex. Done, finally-----and on schedule.
