I occasionally have some residents tell me that there is not enough to do,
and I hope those who feel likewise will note the statistics I just presented.
There are numerous events each month if you want to be actively involved in
our community from educational, to entertainment, to physical fitness. That
coupled with 40 sanctioned clubs should keep anyone as busy as they want to
be. We are extremely fortunate to have a dedicated Activity Director and staff
members who want to provide us with a wonderful variety of things to do year
round.

All of the following numbers are for the 2014-2015 fiscal year: Lynn’s
department produced 302 events for an average of 25 per month. The total
number of residents who attended these events was 8,408. This number does
not reflect those of you who attended events such as, the Advertiser’s Meet
and Greet, craft fairs, new resident welcomes, club open houses, flu shots, etc.
During that same time period, there were 1,884 fitness classes (157/mo.) which
7,812 of you attended. In addition, a total of 40,379 residents used the exercise
equipment for an average of 3,365 per month. We had 1,325 SCAL guests and
the library computers were used 4,753 times. Our premier monthly magazine
“The ‘Breeze” takes Lynn and her staff about 10 days per month to compile
and send off to our layout artist. We have 46 paid advertisers, which allow the
publication to be in the black year after year.

you found them of interest. In continuing
my commitment to having an informed
community, I present more revealing numbers
concerning our Activities and Fitness Department. As you know, Lynn and Trish
and their staff members work very hard to provide you with events to attend
such as, bus trips, seminars, lunch and learn events and exercise classes.
ASSOCIATION NEWS
Dear Residents,
To paraphrase Mark Twain, “Giving
up smoking is the easiest thing in the
world. I know because I’ve done it
thousands of times.” Setting a goal,
whether it be to lose weight, earn a
promotion or spend more time with
your family, is easy — it’s carrying
through that proves problematic.
-
T H E
B R E E Z E
And yet, the world’s most successful
people are intensely goal-orientated.
They know what they want, and they
focus on achieving it every day. So what’s the difference between a
top executive and everybody else?
“The fact is that successful people fail far more than unsuccessful
people,” says Brian Tracy, a top management consultant, in a recent
Q&A with SUCCESS Magazine. “Successful people try more things,
fall down, pick themselves up and try again — over and over
before they finally win.” So how can you learn to quit giving up on
your goals? SUCCESS Magazine offers the following tips for more
successful goal-setting:
• Write down a list of goals. Cynthia Kersey, author of
“Unstoppable: 45 Powerful Stories of Perseverance and
Triumph from People Just Like You,” suggests focusing
on how you want to be remembered. “List the qualities,
deeds and characteristics for which you would like to be
remembered by your friends, spouse, children, co-workers,
the community and even the world.”
• Set out a plan to accomplish your goals. Tracy suggests listing
what little steps will take you to your goal, then organizing
them by priority and sequence. Figure out how much time
and money you will need to accomplish your goals, and
revisit and revise your plan accordingly.
• Manage your mindset. Keep your focus by surrounding
yourself with people who will help you accomplish your
goals. Arrange your workspace
and home so you’ll be reminded
of your commitments. “When you
form the habit of starting your
productivity earlier in the day,
associating with more positive
people, managing the news
and information you feed your
mind, controlling the language
you use — especially the ways in
which you describe yourself —
you will find it easier to succeed,”
says Jim Cathcart, professional
speaker and founder of the
Cathcart Institute Inc. “Become
the person who would achieve your goals and who would
deserve them.” For more information, visit www.SUCCESS.

Aliante Master Association
The Aliante Master Association Board Meeting will be held on
Thursday, September 24 at 7 p.m. at the new Deer Springs office,
located at 2760 Deer Springs Way, Suite 104, North Las Vegas,
NV 89084. All Aliante residents are encouraged to attend.
BOARD MEMBER MESSAGE
Dear Residents:
President Geller has asked each of the
Board members to write an article for
“The Breeze” on a periodic basis; he was
gracious enough to allow me to be one
of the first Board members to participate.
Thank you very much, President Geller,
for your kindness and thoughtfulness.
It has been several years since I have had
the opportunity to write an article for
“The Breeze” and to directly address our
community in writing. I extend a warm
and hardy WELCOME to all of our new owners and residents who
have made Sun City Aliante their home these past few years and a
fond “Hi, what’s new?” to our long time community members. You
have all made a very wise decision in moving to SCAL, as we are, in
my opinion, the premier community in the Las Vegas Valley.
The primary function of the Board of Directors is to: 1. Maintain and
enhance our property values; 2. Ensure the quiet use and enjoyment
of our common elements by all of our residents and; 3. Ensure that
we are fiscally responsible in our finances and that we spend our
money wisely.
Directors, under Nevada law, are fiduciaries and must always act only
in the best interest of the Association. Directors must avoid, at all
costs, any improprieties in carrying out their duties and must also
avoid any appearance of impropriety. We must always act in the
most ethical manner possible and maintain the highest degree of
integrity and transparency.
I believe that our present Board, and our prior Boards, has succeeded
in exemplary fashion in living up to, and exceeding, these goals. SCAL has great amenities; is financially very secure; and has not
had an assessment increase in nine years. The true value of our
community, however, is the wonderful people who live here and

NEIGHBORHOOD WATCH
We are all deeply saddened by
the passing of Jerry Overton, the
coordinator of the Neighborhood Watch
program for Sun City Aliante.
Jim Blossey, who has assisted Jerry
with Neighborhood Watch, is the new
coordinator for the program at Sun City
Aliante.
The transition has gone fairly smoothly, but Jim is asking for the help
of all Neighborhood Watch block captains current and past.
All block captains and patrol volunteers are asked to attend one of
the Neighborhood Watch meetings held on Thursday, September 17
at 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. The agenda includes plans to review the current
program and to share information.
A special invitation is extended to all residents to attend the
meetings on September 17 to learn details of the Neighborhood
Watch program and consider participating either as a block captain
or a patrol volunteer.
For more information, please contact Jim Blossey at 775- 530- 5119
and [email protected].

make it great. Our residents are the lifeblood of our community, and
you are the ones who make it work.
I encourage everyone to attend our Board meetings, which are held
the second Wednesday of every month at 7 p.m. in the Vista Room.
Join us and see how the Board conducts the Association’s business
which, in reality, affects you in your daily lives. Please make your
voices heard during the two Homeowner’s Forums; and should you
have any questions between Board meetings, please feel free to
discuss those concerns directly with any of our Board members.
I have been a Board member since November 2006 and have served
as President, Vice-President and Secretary. I still get a thrill every
time I walk into the clubhouse and look out over the golf course and
mountains, and I thank God that I have the good fortune to live here.
Once again, thank you for choosing SCAL as your home and for
being part of this exciting, vibrant and wonderful community. Enjoy
life!
Respectfully,
Mark Smith

It’s September, and that means it’s time
to reset your sprinkler clocks for the fall
watering months of September, October
and November. During these months, you
should water three times a week. Check
your bill for your watering days or visit
www.snwa.com for more information.
Are you thinking about replacing or
planting a tree? Remember to remove
the nursery transport stake and place
two large pole tree stakes on either side
of the root ball. Drive them into the ground so they are secure.
Use non-abrasive “spring-loaded” tree ties to attach the tree to the
stakes, alternating sides as you attach them. Using this method and
spring-loaded ties will allow the tree trunk to move and grow strong,
yet have support when needed. In very windy areas, like Sun City
Aliante, you should use three stakes, placing the third stake on the
side of the prevailing winds.
COMMUNICATIONS COMMITTEE
Would you like to log onto the Sun City Aliante Website? The address
is http://www.suncityaliantenlv.com/ login.asp. The Communication
Committee will hold a workshop for interested residents on
September 10. The Committee will continue to hold monthly
workshops on the second Thursday of the month.
Come join us on September 10 from 9 a.m. to 11a. m. in the Billard
Room and learn more about Sun City Aliante’s website. We look
forward to seeing you there.
For more information, contact Lynda Towers, chairperson of the
Communications Committee, at 702-255-9494 and

Being a good neighbor means picking up after our dogs daily and
not putting out any seeds or food out for the wildlife.
Be safe in your home - Don’t be tempted to leave your garage door
open. It’s against the CC&Rs and the North Las Vegas police say that
leaving the garage door open or cracked offers easy access for a
thief; it’s also a good idea to keep the door between the garage and
the house locked at all times.
If you plan to do any work on the outside of your home, you
will need to submit an application to the Architectural Review
Committee (ARC) prior to the meeting (which meets twice a month
to review applications). Almost all requests require you to complete
a plot plan, which we can provide, and some requests require
pictures and samples.
If you have questions about your project, you are invited to attend
the ARC workshop that is held the Thursday prior to each ARC
meeting starting at 8:30 a.m. in the Vista Room; just remember to
turn your application and plot plan in prior to the meeting, so we
can place it on the agenda. The ARC will meet on September 4 and
September 18 at 8:30 a.m. in the Vista Room.

Tee It Up
With A Pro
By Paul Cox, PGA
The Women We Love
there is someone to take care of us.
October is Breast Cancer
Awareness Month. Take care of
the ladies in your life; and on
behalf of us guys, please take
care of yourselves, ladies, so
I thought it would be fitting to tell a great story about a wonderful
lady from the LPGA. This is my personal favorite story about an LPGA
member who comes from my old stomping grounds at Mission Hills
Country Club in Rancho Mirage, California. See if you can guess who
before the end of the story.
~Paul
At The Club:
Come and get back in the swing of things and bring a friend.
Couples lessons are the price of singles lessons for the whole month
of October. It is never too late to start this great game! Email me at
[email protected]. Let’s get started.
Golf Quote:
“The most important shot in golf is the next one.”

Blood Pressure Checks
Friday, September 11, 9 a.m.
Donna McCarthur from Centennial Hills Hospital will perform free
blood pressure checks on Friday, September 11, from 9 a.m.-10
a.m. in the community center. No advance sign up is necessary,
and tests are done on a first-come, first-serve basis.
-
Beyond the
track, there are
the practice
facilities,
vendor
grounds,
security, “talent
contract riders,”
tents, roping,
officiating,
volunteers, and
then, the food
and beverage...
Ay, Yai, Yai.
Needless to
say, the staff gets very stressed, and everyone working is usually
happy when it is all over. One of the wonderful ladies of the LPGA
took it upon herself to say, “thank you,” in a grand and glorious
manner one morning at Mission Hills Country Club during the 2010
Kraft Nabisco Dinah Shore Tournament.
Not many are privy to the amount of work that goes into running
a professional event at a golf club. The agronomical scenario on
its own is mind blowing. The PGA or LPGA want their own say
on course setup and agronomy practices; and often, some of the
requests can take a year or two to grow-in or out.
This is our club, our community and I’m glad to be a part of it,
T H E
B R E E Z E
The morning staff of about 45 associates showed up on the first day
of the ProAm at the crack of dawn to begin what they knew would
be a grueling week. They were stunned to find that breakfast was
waiting for them in the kitchen. Most people told me that they were
amazed and thought that management was responsible.
Much to their surprise, they soon realized that their host, chef and
server of the wonderful breakfast was Lorena Ochoa. Lorena ate with
the staff and thanked them for all they had done and were going to
do for the rest of the week.
It is no surprise who the country club staff cheers for still today,
when she makes a rare golf appearance. Lorena finished a
respectable 4th that year at Mission Hills prior to her hiatus from
golf, but she left a positive lifetime impression on golf and golf fans.
I look forward to seeing you on the practice tee at Aliante Golf Club,
and I look forward to helping you improve your skills and your
enjoyment of the game.

Time For Your Influenza,
Pneumonia, Shingles and Pertussis
(Whooping Cough) Shots!
Autumn Begins on September 23
Flu season is just around the corner, and anyone can be a potential
target. Are you aware of the suggested vaccines by the CDC for the
55+ population? Immunizations are an important factor in staying
healthy and protecting against disease.
-
T H E
B R E E Z E
The Activities Department is making access to vaccines convenient
for Sun City Aliante residents. Shots are given on a first-come, firstserve basis. Many vaccines are covered under prescription plans, but
if payment is needed, it can be made directly to Vons/Albertsons
Pharmacy. Shots will be administered by Vons/Albertsons
pharmacists at the SCAL Community Center on the following dates.
Influenza and Pneumonia Clinic
Saturday, September 26
11 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Our best protection against the debilitating effects of Influenza and
Pneumonia is to get a shot. Contrary to popular myth, you cannot
get the flu from the vaccine. Shots will be given by Vons/Albertsons
Pharmacy at the SCAL Community Center on Saturday, September
26, 11 a.m. - 1 p.m.
Both the regular flu and high dose flu vaccine and both pneumonia
vaccines are provided at no charge for all Medicare B and Medicare
D participants (private insurers should check with their insurance
8 - September 2015
carriers prior to getting shots at SCAL). The high dose flu vaccine is
only for age 65 plus. The pneumonia vaccine will also be available
for those age 65 plus. This is done on a first-come, first-served basis.
Payments (for those without insurance) are made directly to Vons/
Albertsons Pharmacy. Cash prices are: regular flu $25; high dose flu
$55; Pneumovax (pneumonia) $85; and Prevnar (pneumonia) $180.
Shingles/tdap (Whooping Cough) clinic:
Saturday, October 3
11 a.m. to 1 p.m.
If you are 60 years or older, you are
indicated for a shingles vaccine.
According to the Centers for Disease
Control (CDC), approximately one in
three people will experience herpes
zoster (shingles) in their lifetime.
Even though zoster generally
presents as a rash, typically patients
also experience extreme pain which
can last for weeks or months. During
this clinic, the whooping cough
vaccine will also be available for
certain qualified participants. The
Whooping Cough Vaccine also contains tetanus and diphtheria, so
it can be substituted for your usual booster of tetanus. Everyone
19-64 is indicated for this booster and anyone age 65 and older who
is going to be in contact with young children. Co-pays and costs will
vary. Shots will be given by Vons/Albertsons Pharmacy at the SCAL
Community Center on Saturday, October 3, 11 a.m. - 1 p.m. Cash
prices: tdap (whooping cough) $54.99 and Zostavax (shingles) $220.

Do You Know Your Family
History? Discover it Using
These Tips
Have you ever wondered about your heritage or ancestry? If so,
you’re not alone. Research shows that 78 percent of Americans are
interested in discovering their family history.
-
T H E
B R E E Z E
If you’re ready to uncover the hidden treasures of your family tree,
there’s no time like the present to unearth the past. Ancestry.com, a
website that specializes in aggregating historical records, offers these
tips:
• Start with what you know. The best place to start your family
history journey is with information you already have. Write
down what you know about your ancestors, and talk to
family members.
• Organize your family tree. Organizing your family tree can
seem daunting, but software or the Internet can streamline
the process. Programs such as Family Tree Maker make it
easy to organize and update your family history.
• Decide which ancestor or branch of your tree you want to
research. Once you have organized your family tree, decide
what direction you would like to take your research. Which
ancestor have you always wanted to know more about?
Which branch of your family tree has gaps in it? Are there
any family mysteries you would like to solve?
• Search family history records. Researching your family
history has never been easier. With sites like Ancestry.
10 - September 2015
com, which houses 8 billion historical records online, a
simple online search can help you find family members in
historical censuses, military and immigration records and old
newspaper articles. Use these records to trace your family
history.
• Connect with others researching their family history. Family
history is a growing hobby, and several Web sites offer
message boards where users post questions and offer
advice. Lots of people with experience in family history are
happy to offer free advice and help, and who knows, you
might even connect with a distant cousin.

Why are Immunizations So
Important for You?
Monday, September 21, 11 a.m.
Are you aware of the vaccines recommended by the Centers for
Disease Control (CDC) for the 55 plus population? Immunizations
are an important factor in staying healthy and protecting against
disease. Every year five to 20 percent of Americans get sick with
the flu. If you are age 60 or older, you should consider a shingles
vaccine. According to the CDC, approximately one in three people
will experience the shingles in their lifetime.
Immunization topics that will be covered include: pneumonia,
phingles, influenza, and pertussis (whooping cough). The speaker
will outline the CDC guidelines for when you should receive a
particular vaccine and why. A general overview of the costs of
vaccines through insurance or cash costs will be provided. The
discussion will also touch on travel vaccines and the importance of
being up-to-date on immunizations before traveling. Sign up at the

Born and raised in Scotland, Jack Walker remains
a favorite with luxury cruise lines throughout the
world. Walker is a well-rounded and experienced
stage veteran. After moving to Las Vegas,
he graced some of Las Vegas’ biggest stages
including Mandalay Bay, Venetian, Mystere Theater
at Treasure Island and the Mirage.

Walker’s main claim to fame is his voice – and
what a voice it is! When asked where he studied,
he is quick to admit that he never did – that he’s
completely self-taught. Frankly, that’s hard to
imagine. There are times he can sound like a
crooner. Other times, a rocker (although a mild
one). Yet his extraordinary range, tone quality and
control stand him as an extraordinary talent on
the opera or concert stage.
His signature show “Across the Pond” is a collection of musical influences performed
in three languages. With a broad repertoire covering music styles including Opera,
Contemporary and Classic Pop, Broadway, Adult Contemporary Crossover, Scottish,
and Irish favorites all interlaced with anecdotal humor and dry wit. Jack will leave you
wondering just what’s coming next.
The SCAL Board of Directors encourages all residents to attend
this 10-year anniversary celebration. There is no charge for
this event. Seating is limited to 200; so sign up early!

The Foundation Assisting Seniors, Inc., a 501c (3) non-profit
charitable corporation, is dedicated to improving the quality of life
in the senior Sun City communities of Aliante, Anthem and Solera.
Volunteers in these communities have assisted over 9,000 seniors in
the last year. Each community service group loans out an inventory
of durable medical equipment for short-term use at no charge. They
also provide minor home maintenance such as replacing light bulbs,
furnace filters, smoke alarms/CO detector batteries, etc. for seniors
who have difficulty with these chores. The foundation has also
recently initiated the “How Are You?” call safety program designed to
call subscribers every day of the week to check on their welfare.
SUN CITY ALIANTE HIGHLIGHTS
Million Dollar Quartet
FRANKIE MORENO IN CONCERT
SCAL residents were ready to rock like it was 1956 again at the Tony®
Award Winning musical, Million Dollar Quartet on July 15 at Harrah’s.
The performance took audiences back to December 4, 1956, when a
twist of fate brought Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins and
Elvis Presley together in one of the most memorable nights in music.
Based around that historical event, the musical recounts how the
legends ended up in the same room at Sun Records in Memphis for
one of the greatest rock ‘n’ roll jam sessions in history.
It was a rockin’ good time for SCAL residents and other members
of the audience at the Cabaret Jazz at The Smith Center on June 9.
They were wowed by Frankie Moreno in Concert as he performed
a rendition of original and classic hits and vintage funk- infused
sounds. Named “Las Vegas Headliner of the Year” two times running,
Moreno frequently brings his special performances to Cabaret Jazz.
Our next trip to see Mareno perform is on September 8.
A Good Old Fashioned Ice Cream Social
with a Modern Twist
-
I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream! On July 23, the
Activities Department hosted a good old fashioned ice cream social
in celebration of “National Creative Ice Cream Flavors Day,” a day to
ponder over
or taste the
many creative,
awkward or
just plain silly
different types
of ice cream
flavors. A variety
of yummy ice
cream flavors
(purchased
from Scoops Ice Cream Shop, located in the Smith’s shopping center)
were offered as well as delicious toppings including fruit, nuts,
sprinkles and chocolate, chocolate fudge and butterscotch syrup.
What a delicious treat on a hot July afternoon!

SENIORS WITH WARM HEARTS
-
T H E
B R E E Z E
Seniors with Warm Hearts (SWWH) would like to extend a big
“THANK YOU” to the community for your generous support of their
recent school supply drive. They were able to provide many of the
needed items requested by S.A.F.E. House, Detweiler Elementary
School and Del Sol High School. They are happy to be able to help
to impact the lives of students in need in a positive way so they can
better focus on their academic success.
For those who may want to know more about them, Seniors with
Warm Hearts is a group of community residents who volunteer their
time and efforts to support disadvantaged and abused children
and their families at S.A.F.E. House. In addition, they recently
added a food drive to help at-risk seniors in the Las Vegas Valley
and homeless and at-risk teens. Some of their members recently
volunteered at Project 150 for a Back-To-School Teen Shopping
Day. Project 150 is a walk-in center for teens in need and the
project supplies them with necessities, such as food and clothing
and mentoring and assistance through their high school years. In
addition to the school supply drive, SWWH also set up a “Holiday
Giving Tree” at the SCAL Community Center, where residents may
select an ornament tag and fulfill a S.A.F.E. House child’s wish with a
toy or a gift.
Seniors with Warm Hearts is always looking for more volunteers for
these worthy causes. The success of their program depends on warm
hearted seniors willing to volunteer to keep the projects moving
forward. Their next meeting is October 15 at 11 a.m. For more
information, contact Dolores Abbott at 702-406-2222, Carol Hoyt at
702-647-1289 or Karen Nutto at 201-787-9391.

SCAL SONGSTERS SPOTLIGHT
Marta Swart
Marta Swart began piano
lessons at age three. She could
not read music, but she was
able to hear a piece and play
the correct notes. Seventeen
years later she gave up on the
piano lessons and switched to
voice and general music studies.
She grew up as an only child in
La Grande, Oregon, where she
played in bands and sang in
choirs in junior high school, high
school and college. She was a
music education major at the University of Oregon, and when she
graduated, she began teaching vocal music to junior high students
in Albany, Oregon. She later worked as music librarian at Willamette
University.
Marta met her husband, George, through friends. She continued in
music education by substituting, while raising her two daughters.
Her husband was in educational administration, but they never
worked in the same school district. For 22 years, she taught
elementary music in Portland, Oregon.
Marta and George retired and began spending winters in Yuma,
Arizona. They liked Yuma so much that they built a home there and
moved there permanently in 2001. There she was active in leading
the choir in her community, singing in church choir and playing in
weekly jam sessions. She said she learned a lot about country music
at the jam sessions, although classical music is her favorite. Besides
the piano, she also plays flute and oboe. In her retirement, she enjoys
quilting and crocheting, and she and George enjoy genealogy.
The Swarts moved to Sun City Aliante in 2011 to be closer to her two
daughters. One is a nurse; the other is a teacher. She also has three
granddaughters who all live close by. She joined the Sun City Aliante
Songsters and is able to sing with the altos, the second sopranos,
fill-in as occasional director, warm-up coach and a back-up piano
player, filling in where needed. She is also a part of the Aliante Treble
Makers (ATMs).
She says she really enjoys the variety of music the Songsters sing as
well as the variety of parts she gets to play and sing. “It keeps me
thinking,” claims Marta. The Songsters are lucky to have this talented
lady as a part of their group.
