While exercising in
the Canoa Ranch Center
fitness room during a
recent lunchtime break,
I asked Tom Miller, a
custodian and GVR’s
Employee of the Month
for May 2016, “What do
you call that horrendous
sound coming from the
pool area?” Tom didn’t
hesitate. “Progress.”
The loud racket in
the closed-off indoor
swimming pool area

GVR Pickleball Club Named
‘Best of the Best’
by ideal-LIVING Magazine
T
he national active adult retirement
magazine, ideal-LIVING, has
named Green Valley Recreation,
Inc.’s Pickleball Club as the “Best of the
Best” in its Summer 2016 edition to be
published in June. The honorees also will
be revealed on the magazine’s website at
www.ideal-LIVING.com.
“We are excited about receiving this
designation,” said GVR CEO Kent J. Blumenthal, Ph.D., CAE, “because it validates
GVR’s vision of becoming the destination
of choice for active adults and retirees.

Gov. Doug Ducey on
May 11 signed House Bill
2592, which amends state
laws to allow nonprofit organizations with memberships to conduct electronic
balloting. The new law will
take effect in 90 days, and
paves the way for GVR
and other nonprofits to
conduct online balloting.
Initiated by GVR and
introduced by Rep. Chris
Ackerley (R-Sahuarita) in
February, the bill moved
fairly quickly through state
House and Senate with
little or no opposition.
Electronic balloting could
save GVR up to $20,000
annually by not having to
print, assemble and mail
paper ballots.
The legislation was
endorsed and supported
by GVR, the Greater
Green Valley Community Foundation, the
Green Valley Council, the
Community Associations
Institute Legislative Action
Committee and the Green
Valley/Sahuarita Chamber
of Commerce.

the 4th Wednesday of the month’s issue of the newspaper. For advertising information or questions about deadlines,

sought after by the next
generation of retirees, and
we have one of the finest
pickleball clubs and facilities
in the country.”
GVR’s Pickleball Club
was one of 10 designees in
this category to earn the
honors. Hundreds of nominations were submitted to
ideal-LIVING earlier this
year for 40 categories of
recognition. A special editorial committee assembled
by the publication reviewed
the qualifications of each
nominee and selected the
winners. GVR’s Pickleball
Club was selected as “Best
of the Best” in its category.
Coincidentally, the GVR
Pickleball Club also celebrates its 10-year anniversary as a GVR club in June.
Chartered in 2006 with
just 38 members, the club’s
membership has swelled to
696 members due to the
exploding popularity of the
sport among active adults.
One of 60+ GVR-recognized clubs, Pickleball
Club members play on
GVR’s 11 pickleball courts
located at Canoa Ranch
and East Centers.
The club also manages
the Pickleball Tournament
held in conjunction with
the annual GVR Foundation’s Southern Arizona
Senior Games that take
place during the entire
month of March in Green
Valley. The games feature
more than 30 competitions
for active adults over age
50 and draws over 1,200
participants and volunteers.
GVR Pickleball Club
President Jeff Harrell
said he’s surprised and
elated at the honor. “We
have such a welcoming,
social and friendly club
with nearly 700 members
here in Green Valley. Our
club members range from
beginner novice to highly
skilled instructors, but

Tom Miller Named Employee
of the Month for May
Facility Custodian Tom Miller has
been named Employee of the Month for
May. Assigned to Canoa Ranch Center,
Miller cares very much about his responsibilities, greeting members and serving
as a valuable good-will ambassador for
GVR. In fact, many members won’t
begin their exercise in the fitness room or
swimming pool until they’ve had a time
to say “hi” to Miller first.
He has been a GVR custodian since
January 2007 and has served at many
centers. Over the past two years, several
members approached senior staff to tell
them what a wonderful job Miller does
in keeping Canoa Ranch center looking
spic ‘n span. In fact, last summer when
custodial staff were rotated among various
GVR centers for cross-training, several
members asked when Miller would be

Staying Active, Independent
and Engaged at Any Age
Senior GVR members are
encouraged to take advantage of several beneficial
programs available through a
collaboration between GVR
and Casa Community Services, made possible with a
grant from the Freeport-McMoRan Foundation.
The Engage! program is
designed to help members
live a longer, healthier and
more independent lifestyle, and include a Senior
Lunch Program, discounted
Adult Day Services at Casa
Community, and a free class
focusing on aging well at
any stage of life. The next
class is at 10 am Wednesday,
June 8 at Desert Hills Center
Auditorium, and is free and
open to the community.
In early May, GVR and
Casa also mailed information
about the Engage! program
along with a questionnaire to
approximately 2,300 GVR
members. If you received
one, please complete and
return it in the postage-paid
envelope or drop it off at any
staffed GVR centers.
For more information
about the Engage! Program
or to register for the next
class, contact Project Coordinator Ashley Coggins at

We are interested in your input to evaluate the perceived value and effectiveness of each of these in sharing
news and information about GVR with members and
the greater Green Valley community.
You may take the survey online by visiting a link, or you
may pick up a paper survey at any major staffed center
beginning July 15. The survey takes less than a couple of

Benefit #3: Inertia A body in
motion tends to stay in motion
at a constant speed. A body at
rest tends to stay at rest. In water, it takes greater effort to start
and stop a movement leading
to increased workload to move,
greater core strength, and constant dynamic balance work.

Pool/Spa Use during Thunder and lightning
With monsoon season almost upon
us, it’s a good time to review pool safety
during lightning and thunderstorms.
Monsoon season is June 15 through
the end of September, and storms peak
during July and August.
GVR follows the guidelines provided by the National Lightning Safety
Institute (NLSI) to determine when to
close pools and spas. GVR will close
pools and spas when it is determined
that their use presents a danger. NLSI
guidelines state that pools/spas will be
evacuated before lightning is five miles
away and activities suspended until 30
minutes after the last observed thunder or lightning. Water is an excellent
conductive of electricity and lightning
can strike up to 30 miles away! Lightning can be deadly and the safety of our
members, guests and employees is our
first priority.

GVR Summer Pool Hours and Use
Those using GVR’s facilities should
be aware of weather at all times and
take precautions when lightning is in
the vicinity by immediately exiting
indoor and outdoor pools, spas and
showers. Staff has been trained to clear
pools and spas of occupants at the first
sight of lightning, no matter how far
away it appears. GVR has an internal
alert system to notify all employees
when pools are closing due to severe
weather and when they are reopened.
When lightning is detected, all GVR
pools will be closed. With the all clear
30 minutes after the last lightning is
detected, pools will be reopened by staff.
Summer pool hours of 5:30 am- 9 pm. With
summer break approaching, please be mindful
of the children’s hours for swimming. Children’s hours are 11 am- 1 pm and 4-6 pm daily
at all pools with exception of West Center.
Children’s hours at the West Center are Noon9 pm weekdays, and all day on weekends and
holidays.

JUNE GVR EXHIBITS
Canoa Hills – Diane West
After pursing numerous art forms over
the years, West discovered gourd art
in 1997. After retiring and moving to
Arizona in 1998 she was able to devote
much more time to gourd art as well as
oil painting, wood carving and jewelrymaking.
Canoa Ranch – Bonnie Roberts and
Joyce Cox
Bonnie and Joyce both paint oil on
canvases or boards. When Roberts paints,
she creates out of her own vision of what
excites her with an impressionistic approach. She creates with her eye and not
the camera’s eye. Cox uses a more realistic
approach, creating a painting exactly as it
appears.

U.S. Military Intelligence Corps Band
7 p.m. Tuesday, July 5
GVR welcomes the U.S. Army Military Intelligence
Corps Band, returning for a patriotic performance at
West Center. The U.S. Army Military Intelligence
Corps Band carries on the traditions started by the
musicians who accompanied General George Washington’s troops into battle more than 200 years ago.
Over the years, the band has been through numerous
moves and experienced several reorganizations. The
band was transferred to Ft. Bliss, Texas, and assigned
to the Artillery School on November 20, 1946. It was
designated the 62nd Army Band on May 15, 1947. On
June 14, 2011, the band moved its headquarters to Ft.
Huachuca, Ariz., where it remains today. The band was
officially designated as the U.S. Army Military Intelligence Corps Band on July 13, 2011. Come and hear
the talented men and women of Ft. Huachuca perform
patriotic favorites to celebrate Independence Day in
Green Valley!
This is a free concert with a limit of two tickets per

The GVR Pickleball Club
will celebrate its 10th
year anniversary this
month.
The Club was chartered
in 2006 with 38 members
who played on one court
at GVR’s East Center.
The court had previously
been used for paddle
tennis, volleyball and basketball. Due to the popularity of the sport, GVR in
2009 built two additional
courts at East Center, and
then four more courts at
Canoa Ranch Center in
2012.
Then in August 2015,
GVR opened four new lit
courts for day and evening play at East Center.
GVR Pickleball players
now have 11 dedicated
courts, and the GVR Pickleball Club membership
has nearly 700 members
and is growing.
The game of pickleball
was created over 50
years ago in the state of
Washington. The court is
the size of a badminton
court. The paddle looks
like an oversized ping
pong paddle and the
game uses a whiffle ball.
The smaller court makes
the game easier on the
body, but it still requires
quick reactions. Pickleball
is a wonderful way to
get outside, get a good

workout and have fun at
the same time with new
friends.
The best way to learn
about pickleball is to stop
by the courts at Canoa
Ranch or East Center any
morning, find a comfortable seat in the bleachers
and watch the action. No
doubt someone waiting
to play will explain the
game to you and how we
all wait for our turn to
play. Games take about
10 to 15 minutes and
when the game is done
the players leave the
court and the next group
of players enters. Paddles
are lined up so we know
who’s up next to play!
The club also offers
classes through GVR’s
leisure learning program as well as assisted
play. Club members are
instructors for the GVR
Pickleball 101, 201 and
202 classes, and assisted
play is offered at 4 pm on
Tuesdays and Thursdays
at East Center. This is
for newbies that are just
learning the basics of the
game and need to get
experience on the court
with coaches - paddles
are supplied! We also
offer Skills and Drills.
The club has purchased
a hitting wall and ball
machine for players that
want to improve their
game.
Because the sport is
so popular and the club
so large, it schedules
court time so that all GVR
pickleball players have an
equal opportunity to play.
Each day some court
time is assigned for “skill
level” play for each group
– beginners, intermediate
and advanced players.
