Wow! When we were young we never thought we would be writing 2015 on checks, and we never would have believed that checks would not be needed! Our grandfathers grew up with horse and wagon transportation and saw airplanes before they died. We grew up without air conditioning and now we live in the desert. Life is wonderful, exciting and fun! Sue Papilion, SCSCAI January is an exciting month for Sun City. It is the month Executive Director staff and committees start planning for Sun City’s new scal year that begins July 1, 2015. Also, the election kicks off for new Board of Directors at the Residents’ Forum on January 14. e event offers a chance for residents to meet each candidate and ask him or her questions. Planning is key to keeping Sun City nancially sound. Strategies help to reserve enough money to replace expensive equipment, vehicles and update facilities, which is the rst order of business. Staff managers review their department's reserve items and request that the Common Area Properties Committee inspects and, hopefully, approves their recommendations for replacement. For example, Golf may need to replace a mower, so a CAP inspector reviews the maintenance record and total cost of ownership report, as well as looks at the item before a decision is made. You may not be affected by the purchase of a mower, but you probably have an opinion on how or if Desert Vista should be remodeled, or if new pool furniture is needed. After appropriate committees make their decisions on replacements, the Board of Directors reviews the request and makes its own suggestions. Committees are an important arm of the Board of Directors, which is responsible for the overall budget, management and organization of the community. Each committee plays an important role in the decisions made by your Board of Directors. e committees need new volunteers all the time. If you don't have a major area of expertise, don't worry, your interest is enough to get you started. If you care about your community, YOU ARE NEEDED! is year, make a New Year’s resolution to give some time back to your Sun City Summerlin resort, and you will nd it is fun and you will meet new people, too. For information, call my office, 966-1409, and I will aim you in the right direction.

Election Committee Set to Count BOD Ballots on February 25 The Election Committee is preparing to conduct the annual election of Sun City directors. This year, Tuesday, February 24, 2015, is designated as Election Day and will be the last day for residents to cast their ballots. Counting of the ballots will be on Wednesday, February 25, 2015. Four positions will be filled. Each home has four (4) votes that may be cast for one candidate or divided among all in any manner desired. It is critical that not more than four (4) votes are marked. Ballots (part of the Link mailing label) and a return envelope will be included in your February Link. The ballot instructions are printed on the back of the address label, with the ballot portion perforated so the name and address can be removed by tearing it off at the perforations. After you mark your votes on this ballot, remove the address portion and insert the ballot into the envelope so that the bar code shows through the window in the envelope. It may then be mailed to the Administration Office, Mountain Shadows Community Center, 9107 Del Webb Boulevard, Las Vegas, NV 89134; or save Sun City the cost of postage by personally depositing your ballot into the ballot box at Mountain Shadows. If you mail your ballot, it must arrive no later than 5 p.m. on February 24. The polls for voting will close at 5 p.m. on February 24. Should you lose or accidentally destroy your ballot, another can be obtained at the Administration Office. Before requesting a replacement ballot, be certain that another member of your household has not already voted. If two ballots are received from the same household, BOTH will be voided. Also, if more than four (4) votes are marked on a ballot, all votes will be voided. The following is an alphabetical listing of candidates for this election: 1 James Akers 2 Ken Caroccia 3 Joe O’Connell 4 Ken Resnick 5 Bob Robey 6 Karl Wiedemann One MEET THE CANDIDATES event will be held.

Each candidate may provide a photo and a statement that will be published in the February Link. LINK · JANUARY 2015 · 7 “Volunteering is the ultimate exercise in democracy. We vote in elections once a year, but when we volunteer, we vote every day about the kind of community we want to live in.” – Anonymous M ary Bird is the office manager at Sun City Summerlin Charities, the community service organization whose volunteers provide handyman services and transportation for residents who are unable to drive. Mary oversees the volunteers. “My job is to make things ow smoothly for drivers, handymen and the clients they serve,” said Mary, emphasizing how the organization always needs more volunteers, especially drivers. Lea Solomon is a longtime Security Patrol volunteer. Not long after Lea’s husband died, she was awakened by a chirping sound coming from her smoke detector. At rst, she worried that it meant that there was a re hazard, but quickly realized it was just her smoke detector’s batteries telling her that they needed to be replaced. “I called Charities and the nicest handyman came to my house that day. He climbed a long ladder, changed the batteries and I’ll always be grateful to him,” Lea said. For six years, Ralph Pendelton has been a volunteer driver and a handyman. He takes non-drivers to medical appointments, grocery shopping, to the beauty salon, “or pretty much wherever they need to go,” Ralph said.

Good luck! - LINK · JANUARY 2015 · 17 Health & Fitness Making Resolutions a Reality Whether you want to lose weight, quit smoking, get your nances in order or spend more time with your family, here’s some advice to help make your resolutions stick. Remember, winners do what losers don’t want to do. Have passion, take Kristie McWhorter, action, and you'll get what you’re MS, CPT, GFI, after. Director of Fitness [email protected] Set a very speci c goal. [email protected] Resolving to “exercise more,” for example, is not speci c enough. “I will work out 30 minutes a day four days a week” is more speci c. If you want to spend more time with your family, make an appointment every week to spend time together. Set a goal that has a measurable outcome. “Getting in shape” is not quanti able. Without a goal that is measurable, how will you know when you’ve made progress or even reached it? Assign a timeline. “Someday” is not a day of the week. e difference between a dream and a goal is a timeframe for making it happen. A deadline also can help motivate you and prevent you from procrastinating. Identify small steps. Major life changes don’t just happen; they happen one step at a time. Keep putting one foot in front of the other. Steady progress through well-chosen, realistic, interval steps produces results. Know what those steps are before you set out. Create accountability. If you know precisely what you want — and there are real consequences for not doing the assigned work — you are more likely to continue in your pursuit of your goal. Find someone in your circle of family or friends to whom you can be accountable. Make periodic reports on your progress. Change your lifestyle. It is difficult to be overweight or inactive without a lifestyle that supports it. Willpower will not make things change. Be sure to clean up your environment by removing obstacles in your way. Remember that you don’t break habits: You replace one behavior with a new one.

Ryan boulevards. Security Patrol head driver Tak Matsumoto explains that the speed limit on all remaining streets is 25 mph. “ at includes posted connector Judy Hunt, Chief, Sun streets such as Button Willow, Darby City Summerlin Falls and Villa Ridge, as well as Security Patrol neighborhood residential streets, whose speed limits are not posted,” Tak said. Resident drivers must come to a full stop at intersection stop signs. For maximum visibility, stop signs at Sun City’s intersections are larger than standard signs. Furthermore, lighted stop signs blink at some of the community’s busier intersections. Sun City streets are public roads, whose laws are enforced by the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department. “Our Patrol volunteers do not confront drivers who exceed posted speed limits, or those who fail to obey stop signs,” said Sun City Summerlin Security Patrol Chief Judy Hunt. “Traffic citations are levied by Metro police officers who de nitely patrol in Sun City Summerlin. Moving violation nes are steep and often accompanied by points that may increase insurance premiums.” Citations and nes levied in traffic court won’t always change the bad habits of careless drivers, regardless of age. For bad drivers to become more attentive, too often the results of their carelessness must be personally experienced in an accident that happens to them or someone they love, reports the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department. On the favorable side, older drivers tend to limit their driving during bad weather and at night, according to AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety. ey also realize a lower incidence of impaired driving as they are less likely to drink and drive. Additionally, 77 percent of older motor vehicle occupants wear seat belts compared to lesser numbers among younger motorists. Experienced drivers tend to plan familiar routes on well-lit streets, and they maintain adequate distance between their car and those in front of them. Mature drivers avoid such distractions as listening to loud music, talking on a cell phone, texting or eating while driving. Resident drivers must come to a full stop at intersection stop signs. For maximum visibility, some stop signs blink at the community’s busier intersections. Driving helps active adults stay mobile and independent, but the risk of being injured in even a minor fenderbender is genuine. Vision should be checked annually with glasses and corrective lenses worn if prescribed for driving, cites the Center for Disease Control and Motor Vehicle Injuries. To avoid possible side effects or drug interactions, drivers should be certain that their doctor or pharmacist reviews prescribed medications. Within the boundaries of Sun City, the Security Patrol Procedures Manual reminds volunteer Patrol drivers that golf carts must obey traffic regulations. Gas-driven or battery-operated golf carts are permissible on public streets, whose speed limits do not exceed 35 mph. Head lights must be operational after dark. Exactly as when operating any motor vehicle, golf cart drivers in residential communities are required to have a valid driver’s license in their possession. ~ Ellen Greenspan/Link LINK · JANUARY 2015 · 21 Water, Water Everywhere — Not Sun City Departments Work to Reduce Liquid Costs Sun City Summerlin’s Golf Maintenance Department completed a xeriscaping project at Highland Falls Golf Course in October aimed at reducing expenses for water and maintenance. e plan is part of an expansive turf reduction project approved by Sun City’s Board of Directors through the Southern Nevada Water Authority’s water rebate program. According to GCM Director Brian Bagwell, the work at Highland Falls involved 6 acres of grassy area in front of the lake that runs along Sun City Boulevard. Brian and his golf superintendent Roger Knight worked on a plan to utilize drought-tolerant plants, along with different sizes, shapes and colors of rock placed in pleasing patterns. In addition to the work in front of Highland Falls, Brian described other projects at Highland Falls’ Hole No. 12. e project, Brian said, will be featured in an upcoming SNWA newsletter that will showcase the breadth of the design, which features a large, impressive dry creek bed. In addition to the work completed by the Golf Maintenance Department, Louis Darling, director of Landscape, is heading up equally impressive projects in his department. “We are in the process of turf reduction on Greenbelt No. 7, which is also known as Sundial West Park, located on Sundial Drive, west of Del Webb Boulevard between Big Timber and Highvale. is greenbelt is watered with Golf potable (drinking) water and is a very large park. Work is under way and we expect to be nished by the end of February,” Louis said. After that, Louis said he will begin working with a landscape designer to create an aesthetically pleasing plan that will eliminate much of the grass surrounding the Desert Vista community center. Stay tuned for more information on that project as it develops. ~ Jeannette Carrillo/Link n HOLE IN ONE Nine & Wine ————————————————————— Gene Engelson No. 3 Highland Falls October 21 It’s Back!

Landscape Turn Your Attention to Roses, Texas Rangers January is here and I have a couple of reminders to mention. First, if you’re a rose bush grower you already know this, but for everyone else it’s time to prune your roses. Also, if you plan on doing a restoration pruning on your Leucophyllums (Texas rangers), this is when you want to do it. Remember, the lower you cut them the higher the chance that they will sprout from the roots, which will create more plants. If this happens and you don’t want them, cut off the sprouts. Do not spray herbicide, which could kill the main plant. I wish everyone a healthy and happy New Year. ~ Louis Darling, Director of Landscape LINK · JANUARY 2015 · 23 Architectural Review Committee No More Pink Houses, In Accordance With Architectural Review Committee Standards e Community Standards office has more than 50 approved color schemes for residents to choose from when painting the outside of their home, and none of them is pink, not any more.
