Welcome to Sun City
In the last few months, more than 60 homes have sold per month
in Sun City. at means there is a high demand to live in our
community and these new residents are recently retired or still
working! We are nding that many of our newest residents do
not know about the activity card. In fact, there are many homes
that we show have new owners, who have not picked up their
Sue Papilion, SCSCAI
activity cards, so this article is for them.
Executive Director
[email protected]
When your home sale is recorded with Clark County, it usually
takes our membership department two weeks to get notice of the change in ownership.
At that point, our staff is ready to issue your activity card. Your rst step is to come into the
Administration office at Mountain Shadows community center and sign up for a simple
orientation. e Activity Card that’s issued will have your resident account number and
allows you access to the tness centers, swimming pools, tness classes, clubs and if you
play golf, earns you special resident rates and 20 percent off everything in the pro shops.
You also will receive the Link Magazine. So, it is worth the time to take orientation.
At orientation, you will meet other new residents, see a computer presentation of
where to nd the answers to questions you may have about remodeling, painting, landscaping, pool rules and lots of other things. Golf gives you two free coupons to play
any of the courses, and you will receive an invitation to the New Residents Social,
which is basically a meet-and-greet with appetizers and wine. e social takes place on
the last Tuesday of the month at the Pinnacle community center and is hosted by the
Board of Directors. e event is so popular that several old-timers come to meet and
help new residents, too.
Since so many residents today are working, Sun City will begin to keep the administrative office open until 7 p.m. on ursday nights, starting this month. And soon one
of our tness centers and swimming pools will stay open until 10 p.m. Having new
residents in Sun City Summerlin is good for the community, for property values and
activity involvement. We all need to go out of our way to welcome new neighbors and
new potential members to our clubs. If someone moves onto your street, take the time
to go over and say, “Hi” and “Welcome!”

President’s Message
Will Sun City Summerlin
See Changes by 2020?
In mid-June a forecasting seminar
was held for the Board of Directors
and interested residents of Sun City.
It was scheduled because we feel
David Steinman,
President, SCSCAI that changing with the times is so
Board of Directors important for Sun City to keep pace
with the new residents who purchase
homes in ourcommunity. ese new residents have
different needs and interests from those who moved into
Sun City during the late 1980s and early 1990s. A person
who came to Sun City in 1990 did not regularly use computers, Wi-Fi, cell phones and ipads unlike our new moveins of 2015. It has been 26 years since the rst residents
purchased homes in Sun City and the world has produced a very different way to communicate since then.
We have learned that tness is extremely popular
with the residents of our community. A question that
resulted from the seminar was, “Do we have the most
efficient exercise machines in our tness centers?”
Another targeted if we are offering the classes that
today’s residents need.
Over the next several months, you may see some
changes to our programs. We will do this because we
want the value of living in Sun City to be appealing to
seniors looking for a new retirement community.
Currently, Sun City Summerlin has about 80 organizations and clubs. As we gain new residents, we will possibly
see the creation of new clubs based upon the needs of
people who live in a different world than the one that
existed in 1990.
One of the big challenges of our community will be
the factor of residents living longer and the high cost of
care for those with serious medical issues. Seniors are
trying to stay longer in their independent living environments. is produces a constant need for senior
services or private citizens to care for these residents
and make sure they live in a safe place and their health
is satisfactory.
As we age in place and avoid the high cost of assisted
living and long-term nursing care, our community will
have to react to this change in the lives of our residents.
Sure, we are going to have the “young” seniors moving
into our beautiful community, but we always have to be
mindful of the “older” senior who elects to remain with
us during his or her years of greater challenge.
Top, technology and websites was a hot topic during a resident
workshop held in June. The event, which was open to all residents,
focused on keeping amenities on pace with the next generation of
Sun City home buyers.
Over the next several months, you may
see some changes to our programs. We will
do this because we want the value of living
in Sun City to be appealing to seniors
looking for a new retirement community.

Avoid Red Flag Potential for Mail Theft
Residents should take precautions to reduce
their chance of becoming victims of mail
theft. Instead of using your home’s mail
box to send outgoing letters, consider
using the secure post office boxes located
at Sun City’s community centers. For
your safety, also remember to remove mail
as soon as it’s delivered. If you must deposit mail
into your home’s mail box, DO NOT raise the red ag. In addition to
signaling the mail carrier, the ag also may catch the attention of others.
More on Mailboxes: Per SCSCAI’s CC&R’s enforced by the office of
Community Standards, mailboxes and posts are the responsibility of each
home owner. Mailboxes should be black or white (depending on where
you reside. All posts within the community are black). If you need to
replace your mailbox you will not be able to nd an exact model. Replace
it with one as close as possible to the original. Some of these models are
available in locking units. ey can be found at home improvement stores.

Why You Need Water
Water is the most common substance
on earth, and it’s also the most common substance in the human body,
making up more than 60 percent of
a person’s body weight. While you
could potentially live without food
for weeks, you’re unlikely to last
more than a few days without water.
Kristie McWhorter,
Staying hydrated is extremely

important; water is used by your

body to perform almost every major
[email protected]
[email protected] function. For example, your body
uses water to transport nutrients and
oxygen to cells; regulate your body temperature; moisten
mouth, eye and nose tissues; protect organs and tissues;
lubricate joints; and ush out waste products. Without
proper hydration, the body’s normal functions can become
seriously inhibited.
Dehydration occurs when liquid is replaced at a slower
rate than it is being used up by the body. Common causes are
diarrhea, vomiting and sweating. Early symptoms include
dry mouth, the inability to produce tears or sweat, muscle
cramping and lightheadedness. At its worst, dehydration
can be life-threatening.
We are half way through our hot summer and it is important to have extra water in situations that involve physical
activity. It’s also a good idea to avoid outdoor exposure and
limit physical activity when it’s particularly hot or humid
outside. Pay close attention to physical cues (thirst, dizziness, headache), which might indicate your uid levels are
getting low. Keep drinking water close at hand during these
hot summer months to stay hydrated and healthy!

Exercising Safely: Coming Back After a Surgery
Tuesday, August 11, 12 p.m.

n MR. GYM ETIQUETTE
——————————————
Safety first! What's safe for you
is safe for others. A gym is a placee
with lots of opportunity to get hurt, and we can put
not only ourselves, but others at risk for injury. Some
simple tips to keep safe while working out include:
1. Use the equipment the way it was designed to be
used. Example? A treadmill is designed for walking and
running, not for doing weight lifting. Hand weights can
become missiles and ankle weights can come
unstrapped and cause a trip hazard.
2. Keep the floor clear. Never leave bags, towels, hand
weights or plates on the floor, even if you are doing circuits. Those extra steps between you and the rack or
the locker count as cardio!
3. Know and admit your limits. Anyone can experience
declines in balance, vision or strength for many reasons. Ignoring these problems is like an accident waiting to happen. Don't self-treat. Have the courage to
admit you need some help if you are experiencing
some physical problems.

Slow Down, You Move Too

become stronger. Having stronger
muscles means you have more stamina to do the activities
you enjoy doing, like walking, tennis, golf, dancing, tness
classes, swimming and strength training.
I often see residents performing only short range-ofmotion exercises, which can cause your joint action or movement to shorten, causing more stiffness in your joints.
Short range-of-motion exercises will ultimately decrease
your overall muscle strength and functionality, setting you
up for more injuries down the road.
A safe and effective strength-training program needs to
include full range-of-motion exercises for two out of three
sets going at a slow, controlled pace (2 or more seconds in
each direction). If you would like a little more intensity, add
one set of pulsing or short R-O-M exercises. Doing this
will allow your muscles to work all muscle bers to their
proper length, and you will gain greater muscle strength
over time.

“I worked for Harley-Davidson for 43 years as a tool and

looked up one day and saw a hummingbird had made her
nest in the seat of his motorcycle wind chime.
“She’s a biker bird,” he said. “She looks so perfect, like
she’s riding the motorcycle.”
Charlotte said she’d notice the bird would dart in and
out of their entryway every time she or Charles headed

“I didn’t know what it was doing until I saw the nest up

CLUB SPOTLIGHT: Sun City Charities, Inc.
A Helping Hand When You Need One
Located at the rear of the Desert Vista parking lot, at
10362 Sun City Blvd., is a very important building staffed
entirely by resident volunteers. According to new President Mike Lee, the organization provides help to Sun City
residents seeking to contact government services;
helps with running errands; offers rides to the supermarket and doctor’s office; and works with handy men
who change lightbulbs, smoke detector batteries and
more. While Mike explained there are no formal charges
for these services, Charities does appreciate a donation
to help cover its operating costs. Talking about his volunteers, Mike said the handy men are invaluable, but they
are getting older and he would like to see others step up
to help with his group’s growing needs.
Handy With a Hammer
Gordon Fast is one of Charities’ volunteers, who is a selftaught handyman. He has lived in Sun City Summerlin
for two and a half years and enjoys being a volunteer handyman because it is “a labor of love that gives me a good
feeling to help people,” Gordon said. “I can do it when others can’t. If you feel like you want to help people, please
join us!”
Dave McConnell is another volunteer handymen who
moved to Sun City last November. “I have been a handyman
most of my life. I was a professional handyman in Pennsylvania for 10 years. I gained some of my knowledge by
working in a tool mill. I think that this is a great service
because it gives people someone they can trust and not
be ripped off. So far, everyone I’ve met has been extremely
nice, and the people I have helped have just been very
grateful for the work. It gives you a great feeling. The last
lady I worked for said, ‘You just made my day!’ ”
Aside from these gentlemen, there are countless satisfied clients who want others to know what an asset
Charities’ volunteers are to Sun City.
Cerna Kalen just loves the handymen. “They are very
friendly and helpful,” she said. “They will do light jobs
like change lightbulbs, which I cannot reach, change the
smoke detector batteries and move a heavy box.”
Another resident, Edie Klar, said, “I’m just very grateful for the wonderful program that is offered. I've had to
call them several times for transportation to get me to a
medical procedure and, in the seven-and-a-half years
I’ve been a widow, these people have been invaluable to
my survival. The handymen have helped me get things
done that I had always relied upon my husband to do. I
don’t know where I’d be without them!”
If you would like to add your name to the Charities’
handyman list or have questions about the organization,
call 254-5831.
