As the calendar page turns, bringing in a crisp New

Year, I extend my warmest thoughts to you and your

loved ones. If you’re reading this, I want you to know

that you are not just the heart but the soul of what

we do. Let’s embrace 2024’s horizon with laughter

and gratitude because there’s so much to be thankful

for. I’m proud of our past year’s successes, and I’m

proud of the senior services team and the excellent

work they do. We have plenty of good things to look

forward to, like more Tai Chi classes (by popular

demand) and a new modular that will bring our

Caregiver activities, fitness classes, and health &

wellness activities back to the main campus, just to

name a few. Trust me when I say it’s going to be a

good year. I want to encourage you to contribute

ideas or suggestions for future activities that

promote health & wellness, increase participation,

encourage independence, and foster fun most of all.

We are committed to you and our community. Lastly,

remember, the only time we should ever look back is

to see how far we’ve come. Here’s to another year of

bright possibilities, new achievements, strengthening

old friendships, and making new ones. Mostly, here’s

to you. You’re the reason we do what we do.

SENIOR SERVICES

with Jessica Martinez

Hello all,

Welcome back to Connecting Waters, or welcome if you are new to

this column. My name is Jessica Martinez, I am the Community Liaison

for Senior Services. I use this column to answer some FAQs I receive

from seniors around the community. Some range from really common

questions about our services to wacky questions like: “My dog needs a

haircut, can you guys do that for me?” (Yes, I’ve really been asked that

question before). I am here to answer them all!

My father is alone and I would like him to participate in

senior activities to socialize. How can I convince him?

Ah, a very common question. I recommend bringing him into the

center to have breakfast and then tour our site to see the daily

activities we have. We can arrange for him to meet our friendly

Intake Coordinator Christina Reyes to see what other services

might interest him such our eyeglass program or our exercise

groups.

I know sometimes it is hard to convince our parents to get

involved (I know, I have a very stubborn dad), but I think getting

them to just come into Senior Services will easily change their

minds! I promise, we’re a fun party over here!

More questions? Contact me at 480.362.7386 or jessica.martinez2@srpmic-nsn.gov

I am Akimel O’odham (River People)

from Salt River. I grew up with my father

Joseph (bot) and my mother Hazel

Ca-wak-ka-ma (Laguna Pueblo), an

older brother and two younger sisters.

Our house was built by my father. While

he was working on it, we basically

lived outside. We cooked outside, slept

outside and even watched TV outside

and took baths outside.

My brother and I would also hunt and

fish with my dad. He taught us how to

clean and cook what we got, mostly

small game like doves, rabbits and little

mountain deer.

For fun, we would swim in ditches and

play in the fields, making mud pies and

throwing dirt balls. It’s bad, but when

we were little, we thought the planes

were spraying water on the fields and

we would try to run under them.

We played baseball with the neighbor

kids. I remember we would often sit

on their roof and watch their mom and

aunt make tortillas, cemait. It was very

elegant, like a dance, the way they

would toss the tortillas and roll them on

the comal.

One of my favorite things growing up

was sitting in the tree house my brother

and father built and listening to stories

my brother made up about native life

past. I was very proud of him. He could

just pick up any instrument and play

it. He had a band that would play at

the trade fair every year at the old day

school.

I have been working in the community

for more than 30 years, with Social

Services, Youth Services, even at

Seniors Services before. I just like

helping people. It’s what I’m called to

do.

When I learned about the recreation

position at Senior Services, I was

excited to come back. The thing I

like most about my job is my people.

I love making them happy. I love

seeing joy in them when they say they

cannot do something and I give them

encouragement and then their creation

comes out and shines and they are so

happy. It gives me joy.

When I am not working, I love to

take care of my family. I have seven

grandchildren who live with me. We

love going to the movies and cooking

and eating together. I also like to bead.

I bead all kinds of things, but I most like

to bead pouches and then give them

away.

SENIOR SERVICES

Program Spotlight

Health & Wellness

Senior Services Health & Wellness

is a new program that launched in

early 2023. It empowers community

seniors and adults with adaptive needs

to improve their health through fun

classes, workshops and events that

educate and inspire in the five core

areas of wellness: Physical, Mental,

Emotional, Spiritual and Social.

“We want to create opportunities to

keep our seniors healthy and active

to improve their quality of life,” says

Celinda Joe, health & wellness program

manager.

Celinda has been busy. She kicked

off the program with a senior wellness

expo in February 2023 and since added

regularly scheduled programming

including Yoga for Fall Prevention, Tai

Chi, a Walking Club and a Senior Book

Club. In addition, Health & Wellness

offers a variety of fun, hands-on

workshops such as making a fruit and

veggie charcuterie board, prepping

healthy meals and dance classes.

“The program has been growing

fast so we’ve been blessed to have

James Nunez join our team. He has

been invaluable helping to facilitate

the programs and even providing

transportation,” said Celinda. “We

are also fortunate to collaborate with

Diabetes Prevention Services, Injury

Prevention and the Salt River Tribal

Library. They have been key to helping

our program grow.”

The program also completed its

first service project in December.

Participants made cozy lap blankets

and delivered them to the seniors at

The Caring House in Gila River. They

also sang Christmas carols to them

in O’odham and shared some holiday

treats.

“I am a key believer that giving of

yourself promotes emotional, spiritual

and psychological wellness. When you

are serving others, you are not thinking

of yourself,” said Celinda.

“Helping others brings us joy

too.”

Future Health & Wellness

activities will emphasize

other skills to enhance

wellness and improve mental

health, such as spending

time outside, socializing,

prioritizing exercise, keeping

a gratitude journal, and

discovering new hobbies

and passions. In addition,

participants are encouraged

to explore their religious

or traditional beliefs and to

build a network of emotional

support.

“Being well is about more

than being physically healthy,

it’s about building habits,

routines and social circles

that nourish mind, body and

soul,” said Celinda. “Our

Health & Wellness program

provides information and

opportunities to bring our

community’s seniors and

adults with adaptive needs

together to socialize, to learn

and to become stronger

physically, emotionally and

spiritually.”

Community Spotlight

Wilfred

Charlie

I was raised in Wickenburg because

my dad worked for the railroad. I lived

with my mom and dad, three sisters and

my older brother. I was the youngest of

the bunch.

During the summer, I lived with my

grandparents, Paul Stepp Shaw and

Sadie Juan Shaw, in their house at

Camelback and Extension. It was a little

sandwich house and it was so nice and

cool in the summer. It had a kitchen,

dining room and family room, which is

where the three of us would sleep.

It was back in the day so we had to

haul water in big metal milk cans from

Indian School and Extension. There

was a wood stove and there was an

outhouse.

I had cousins that lived nearby and

we walked everywhere and swam in the

ditches. We’d walk all the way to Ever

Green and spend the whole day there

and then float down the canal and get

out at Extension to go

back to the house.

We were barefoot.

Nothing was paved so

we’d carry cardboard

and run as fast as we

could, then throw the

cardboard down and

dance around on it until

our feet had feeling again and then we

pick it up and go again.

“I had cousins that

lived nearby and we

walked everywhere

and swam in the

ditches.”

On weekends, my parents would visit

and the whole family would go to the

Verde or Salt rivers and

have picnics.

On Sundays, my

grandpa would take me

and my cousins around

the community in his

truck and we would pick

up bottles and go into

Mesa and turn them in

for money so we could get candy or ice

cream.

We’d also have big family meals on

Sundays with the whole family, cousins,

aunts, uncles, everyone. We’d put

tables together. It was

nothing fancy but it was

good.

In high school, I met

my wife of 49 years,

Sharlene. I graduated

in 1975 and left

Wickenburg to live in the

community. I got a job in

the police department

as a dispatcher. I was

only 17, but I don’t think

they knew that. I worked with the police

for eight years, doing patrol and I

eventually became a sergeant.

Wilfred’s grandparents

“It’s always been

important for me

to help people...

For the rest of my

life, it was instilled

in me. I teach it to

my kids.”

Growing up, I always wanted to be

a policeman. I used to watch Adam

12 all the time. Back then, the station

was by the old ballfield

on Agency Road, now

Longmore. In 1978,

they started the fire

department and we were

cross-trained to help as

firefighters. I actually

delivered a baby in a

parking lot once.

It’s always been

important for me to help

people. When I was about

10, we were driving to my grandparents

and there was a bad car accident.

There was a woman sitting

helped her and I wanted to help her but

I was just a kid. For

the rest of my life,

they offer—we just

ask them to pay it

I left the force for eight years and then

came back in 1992. Everyone knew me

of me as their officer. Our house

was like the Kool-Aid house, all the

neighborhood kids would come. Not

all of them had a

and we enjoyed

taking them hiking

to swim and have

picnics.

I also enjoyed

being Santa for

many years. We

knew the families

that needed help,

especially the ones

that would never ask for it. We’d dress

up, me as Santa, and deliver presents

from Toys for Tots.

CULTURAL CONNECTIONS

Cultural Connections

Remembering the Sandwich House

They are nearly all but gone, yet there

still linger many fond memories of the

sandwich house. But how did this little

house come to be and what does it

mean to us?

Cultural Resources Director Kelly

Washington shared a bit about the

origins of the sandwich house.

“It was really an innovation of our

people,” Kelly said. “They are unique

and something you don’t really see

anywhere else.”

For a long time, the River People lived

in round houses called ki: in O’odham

or va in Piipaash. They were made

of branches and other light natural

material that could be bent into a dome

shape. The roofs were thatched and

covered with mud and dirt to make them

rainproof.

These houses were sturdy, but when

a family or community member died, it

was tradition to burn the house and all

the deceased’s personal belongings.

The remaining family then chose a new

plot of land and built a new house.

As more non-Native settlers, especially

the Spanish with their adobe houses,

came to the community, they wondered

at this practice and thought that

sturdier, more permanent homes would

be better.

To encourage community members

to start building adobe houses, wellmeaning

groups offered a variety of

incentives to families who built them.

Around that time in the 1930s, the

canals in the community were being

redone with concrete. The redwood

Florine Carlos courtesy of the Huhugam Ki: Museum.

planking that had lined the canals

became available to the community.

“That’s where the innovation came in.

The men of our communities took these

materials and developed their own

version of the adobe house,” said Kelly.

“The planks were nailed horizontally

to vertical beams and mud was then

packed, or sandwiched, between the

planks to form the walls.”

This was men’s work. When a house

needed to be built, male family

members and other men from the

community would come and make the

mud pits on site. Female relatives and

women from the community would come

too and cook all day to provide meals

for the men as they worked.

Often, the houses could be completed

in a couple of days.

Darayne Achin holds a photo of herself

with her grandma’s sandwich house in

the background and remembers such a

time.

When I was about 5, we were all

picking cotton. My grandma told me to

take my brother and start dinner.

I put in wood chips and some

newspaper and some bigger logs—I

knew how not to smother the fire—but I

didn’t think it was catching fast enough,

so got some kerosene and I dumped

it in and all over the place. The house

caught fire.

We thought we were going to get in

trouble so we ran and hid. They found

us later and were so grateful that we

were OK, we were not punished, but the

house was gone.

What I remember most though is that

the next day all the men and women

in our family came, the men with tools

and women with food and things for

the family. The men worked all day and

had the frame done and mud made.

The women cooked. Others from the

community stopped by to help and

within a day or so, we had a house.

14 WINTER 2024

SRPMIC SENIOR SERVICES 15



CULTURAL LIVING

Darayne and her brother lived with

her grandma from age 2 to 6. She

remembers that it was one room with a

big wooden pole in the middle, a woodburning

stove in the corner opposite

the door and an icebox next to the

door. There was a double bed for her

grandma and her husband and little

beds for her and her brother. Outside

was a shed with no windows that stayed

really cool and dark where her grandma

would store canned goods and other

foods.

As time went on, the Bureau of

Indian Affairs and Housing and Urban

Development encouraged block

and other homes with more modern

materials.

“Eventually, the sandwich homes

16 WINTER 2024

would not pass code and were

abandoned. By the 1970s, they began to

disappear,” said Kelly. He considers how

we have moved from homes by family

and community, where everyone was

together to houses built by others with

everyone in their separate rooms and

he wonders what we have lost.

“Back then, I never thought of [my

grandparents’ house] as traditional. It

was just a house,” said Kelly. “I miss

the smells of the earth and natural

materials. They immediately transform

me back to that time in that house.

I doubt people have the same fond

memories of today’s houses.”

BETTER LIVING

Better Living

Making NEAT Part of

Your Day

As we age, there are things we can do

to stay healthy, active and independent

as long as possible. Exercise is one

of them. But exercise is about more

than maintaining a healthy weight, it

improves our lives in many ways.

As we get older, we begin to lose

our strength, balance and flexibility. It

becomes harder to perform everyday

tasks, putting us at risk of losing our

independence. But regular exercise,

even as little as 15 to 20 minutes a

day, improves strength, balance and

flexibility. It becomes easier to do the

things we need to do and we have more

energy to enjoy our hobbies, friends,

family and grandchildren.

In addition to changes we see on the

outside, exercise does incredible things

inside. It helps to lower blood

pressure, improve bone density, reduce

brain fog and boost our immune system.

It also reduces the risk of cognitive

decline, heart disease, diabetes and

other chronic conditions. Plus, all those

endorphins just make us happier.

So what should we be doing? Just

get moving. We don’t have to run a

marathon or lift an elephant. Adding

small “movement moments” throughout

the day can have a significant impact.

Ideally, these movements would include

a mix of aerobic exercise, stretching

and strength or resistance training.

We can make these moments easier to

incorporate in to our day by tying them

to something we already do like some

squats while brushing our teeth, walking

while talking on the phone, standing on

one foot while waiting in line or doing a

set of an exercise during commercials.

It all adds up and as we become more

fit, we can add more movements.

Any way we slice it, exercise makes

for better living.

Simple things you can do:

• Walk your dog

• Park further from your

destination

• Take the stairs

• Stretch every time you get up

• Put on your favorite song and

dance

• Get a fitness buddy and make

it fun!

18 WINTER 2024

Linda Post remembers first

learning about SHRRP in the

community newspaper. In

the 10 years since, SHRRP

has completed many home

improvement projects and

repairs on Linda’s home.

“They replaced my windows,

built a ramp to the door, redid a

bathroom and replaced the AC,”

said Linda. “They also redid the

roof. It was over 23 years old

and the shingles were coming

off. They had it done in like four

hours—they were better than

Santa’s helpers!”

Of all the projects, the new

flooring is Linda’s favorite.

“It looks so suave and you

don’t see the dog hair on it. It

brightens my mood and reminds

me of an old farm house.”

Linda recommends that

seniors not hesitate to call,

“They are really good. They

know what they are doing.”

Rito Lopez, SHRRP Assistant

Operations Manager, is proud

of the program and impact it

makes in the lives of those

it serves, “When you see the

emotions it makes in the lives of

our seniors and

their homes, it

makes us want

to continue to

find ways to

improve and

expedite our

services.”

SHRRP

provides a

variety of

services to

qualified

community

residents. These can include complex

renovations and retrofitting of interiors

to meet health and safety needs such

as, but not limited to:

• Kitchen Cabinets

• Flooring

• Handicap Bathrooms

• Ramps

• Exterior Door Covers

• Roofing

SHRRP also provides day-to-day

services that seniors and those with

adaptive and medical needs may

find challenging such as changing air

filters, repairing exterior doors that

do not close correctly or improperly

sealed windows.

Qualified individuals must be

members of the community, age 55+

or qualify with a medical disability,

and have a home condition that

detrimentally affects the individual’s

health, welfare and/or safety.

If you think you or someone you know may qualify,

call the SHRRP helpline Monday - Friday,

8 a.m. - 5 p.m. at 480.362.7800.

If you are an existing SHRRP client with an afterhours/weekend HVAC or

plumbing emergency, you can call community dispatch to reach an on-call

technician or plumber at 480.850.9230.
