The Best Of Two Worlds

EDITOR´S LETTER

We start February with the hopes that this month will bring better news regarding our national economy and the prices of many products and services that every day go higher, and higher and don’t ever seem to stop. I don’t know if people take notice of the prices; the smaller products and everything we consume daily everyday skyrocket. This becomes evident when one goes out to restaurants, for leisure, entertainment, and to do other things. Not to mention when one goes to the supermarket, because every time the prices get worse. I wonder how long this will last. Are we in a recession yet? And you, what do you think about this? Send me your comments at editor@newsazb.com

On another note, I would like to share that this month of February will be full of local activities in Tucson, such as the Gem Show, which is an international event with vendors and exhibitors of jewels, fossils, and minerals. You will be able to see all around Tucson that there are lots of tarps offering a near-infinite selection of items. We strongly recommend you visit any of these tarps – you will enjoy it. For more information, visit www.visittucson.org

We also have the pleasure of inviting you to join us in our first event of the year, the Women’s Health and Wellness Fair, where SAABE AZ (Southern Arizona Alliance for Bilingual Education), in collaboration with Arizona Bilingual News, LatinasAZ, and Arizona Complete Health, will be offering up to 30 free mammograms on Saturday, February 11th at El Pueblo Center from 9 AM to 2 PM. Additionally, there will be a health fair offering different products, services, and resources for free, such as vaccines for all ages (provided by El Rio Health) and other health services accessible to all. Remember, Saturday, February 11th starting at 9 AM with the mammograms. Appointment is needed for the mammograms; call (520) 274-7255 to make one. For more information on donations, booths, and sponsorships, call (520) 305-4110 www.saabeaz.org www.azbilingual.com

Lastly, I invite you to read us both on paper and online. We have very interesting advertisements and articles promoting our local economy, education, health, business, events, and relevant information. Furthermore, our team and collaborators are always working tirelessly for you. Arizona Bilingual is distributed in Tucson, Pima County, Southern Arizona, and Northern Sonora, Mexico.
