From spy balloons and economic development to nationally televised trials and local elections, quite a few stories made the headlines in 2011. As Camp Verde moves into 2012, here’s a look at some of the stories that were in the news.
January
? Some residents of Camp Verde and surrounding communities become alarmed when a company named STARA Technologies, based out of Gilbert, approached town leaders for permission to open up a “spy balloon” testing facility inside town limits. The company chose Camp Verde, claiming the region had similar topography to Afghanistan, where the balloons will ultimately be used. The Town Council signed off on the project, but the company later changed its mind and looked for a different location.
? Andrew Brooks and Preston Brogdon, two Marines finishing overseas tours of duty, are welcomed home by the American Legion Riders. The motorcycle group works to escort returning servicemen and women when they returns to the Verde Valley.
? The Town of Camp Verde begins the process of revising its town codes in earnest. Many of the existing codes were copied from Yavapai County rules when the town incorporated in 1986. Originally meant to be temporary, the codes were sometimes outdated and led to problems and red tape headaches for residents.
? The Camp Verde Chamber of Commerce turns 30. The chamber was formed in 1981 to better represent local business interests apart from the Verde Valley Chamber of Commerce that represented many businesses at the time.
February
? The Camp Verde Journal turns 30. Founded in 1981 by Jerry Newton and Dimas Vasquez, the paper dedicated itself to covering local news in the lower Verde Valley. The paper was later sold a few years later and is today owned and operated by Larson Newspapers.
? Yavapai County signs onto a regional trails plan with other local communities in the Verde Valley. The long-term goal of the effort is to eventually form a linked trail system throughout the area.
? Clayton Young, assistant fire chief for the Camp Verde Fire District, is named the new head chief. He replaces Phil Harbeson who retired after nearly four decades of service dedicated to protecting the town.
? The Pecan, Wine & Antique Festival draws a crowd to Camp Verde for a weekend to sample the nuts and fruits of the vine from local vintners. The festival is once again headed up by Verde Entertainments, a local group that took over the organizational duties after the town dropped primary sponsorship of the event.
? Robert Gustafson, 55, of Rimrock, is sentenced to 21 years in prison after his involvement in a gunfight with Yavapai County Sheriff’s Office deputies. No one was injured.
? The Yavapai-Apache Nation marks the 126th anniversary of its expulsion from the Verde Valley in 1875, an event known as Exodus. The tribes were forced to march three grueling days to the military reservation in San Carlos and weren’t allowed to return until 1900.
? Yavapai College announces budget cuts, including the closing of its Camp Verde campus on Apache Lane. Financial reasons were cited, along with the changing nature of the use of technology in higher education.

? The Yavapai County Board of Supervisors abandons the submitted plans for the Villas at Beaver Creek, a 137-condominium project first approved in 2005. The project could never get off the ground due to numerous setbacks and economic concerns.
March
? The trial of self-help author and motivational speaker James Arthur Ray begins in Camp Verde, attracting considerable media attention. Ray was charged with three counts of manslaughter following an October 2009 sweat lodge event at a resort near Sedona that cost three people their lives: Lizbeth Neuman, 49, of Minnesota, Kirby Brown, 38, of New York and James Shore, 40, of Wisconsin.

The town, along with a massive volunteer recruitment effort, had stepped up the previous year to help keep the 19th century military post open to the public after the state park system’s budget was gutted by the Legislature.
? Bob Burnside beats Steve Goetting to retain his seat as mayor. Alan Buchanan, Carol German and Bruce George also win their seats on the Town Council.
? The Verde Valley Archaeological Center moves into office space in the Fort Verde Plaza shopping center along Main Street. The center is the culmination of efforts by the Verde Valley Archaeological Society to provide a home for artifacts from the region, along with serving as an educational resource and potential engine of economic development.
? Lloyd Oliver, 88, the second to last of the original Navajo Code Talkers and resident of Camp Verde, dies. Oliver and his fellow Navajo used their own language to create a code during World War II that the Japanese were never able to break.
? In a ruling from the bench in Camp Verde, Yavapai County Superior Court Judge Tina Ainley set bail for Ricardo Costa, a man accused of molesting children, at $75 million, believed to be one of the highest in American history. The bail amount was eventually ruled “constitutionally excessive” by the Arizona Court of Appeals. Costa would later plead guilty and be deported to his native Brazil.
April
? The U.S. Geographic Survey releases a study identifying the likely source of the water in Montezuma Well, a natural wonder that formed thousands of years ago as a limestone sinkhole. The water is believed to seep in through a basalt formation, explaining the elevated levels of carbon dioxide in the water that make it impossible for fish to survive.
? The Camp Verde Unified School District Governing Board eliminates the position of director of operations, putting former Camp Verde High School Principal Chris Schultz out of a job.
? The U.S. Geological Survey releases a new groundwater model for the region, the results of a five-year study.
