Cactus
Shadows High School’s football team will again appear
on Cox‑TV in 2007. After a successful appearance
on the cable provider’s Game of the Week last season,
Cactus Shadows will host Saguaro at 7 p.m. Oct.
4.
The
Falcons will play two Thursday games in 2007. The
other is Sept. 20 at Paradise Valley. That game
is moved up a day in honor of the Jewish holiday
Rosh Hashanna.
Rental
harbor could
fill fast
Boaters
who want to harbor their watercraft at the soon‑to‑be‑built
Scorpion Bay Marina and Yacht Club are advised to
act fast.
Reservations
for a limited quantity of boat storage rental slips
are being taken on the marina’s Web site at scorpionbaymarina.com,
where boaters can download a reservation form and
view a list of rental fees.
Scorpion
Bay is a 164‑acre full‑service facility
scheduled to be constructed on the lake’s west side
in an area popularly known as “Dirty Shirt.” Construction
is expected to begin shortly, and boaters are encouraged
to reserve their storage slips immediately.
“These
slips will go fast,” said Dennis Gorney, a principal
in Lake Pleasant Marina Partners LLC.
Developers
are hoping the area becomes a popular destination
and service facility for boaters, fishermen, recreationists
and others visiting the lake region.
In
addition to wet storage for boats, plans call for
dry storage and other accommodations. The floating
dock portion of the marina will be protected by
a high‑tech wave attenuation system.
Other
planned marina amenities include a park‑like
setting, floating restrooms, stores for boating
accessories, convenience items and food, launch
ramp, covered and uncovered boat storage slips,
boat rentals and an easy‑access tram system
from parking areas.
