Neighborhood Group Follows Local School With Widget

The Phoenix Central Neighborhood Association in Arizona was created in August, 2008, by Alton J. Jones. His goal was to begin a dialogue with residents, property owners and business owners within the geographical boundaries of Indian School and Thomas Roads and 7th Avenue and 3rd Street about business, crime, education, entertainment, politics, sports and transportation.

To enhance the dialogue about prep sports and its local high school – also named Phoenix Central – the web site has created and activated a one-school, five-sport MaxPreps’ data module:

This is the first neighborhood-based web site to use the widget, another example of the expanding role of citizen journalism and reporting.
