Fred Cooper, the Golden Rain Foundation’s recreation manager, worked with company and in the fall of 1986 the cast, crew and their equipment rolled into LW and spent a week filming the episode. The PortaPak club (later to become the Video Producers Club) received permission to follow Landon’s company around the community and film them making the episode. Producer/Director Ann McGee, Writer Pat Dopp and Narrator Clay Dopp edited the footage and added voice-overs to create a 40-minute documentary of the Woman’s Club episode filming. The Leisure World Historical Society’s project to convert archived films to digital, recently found a copy of the documentary. It was converted to digital film by club Vice President Richard Erickson and posted to the Historical Society’s YouTube Channel. At the 10 a.m. meeting of the Historical Society, on Wednesday, May 25, the Historical Society will screen the documentary in Clubhouse 1. In it, the actors, crew and director are interviewed. How the clubhouses and shareholder’s units were used in the filming is included.

Depending on your mutual, you may receive one or two ballots. Shareholders in Mutuals 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 14 and 16 are scheduled to receive two different ballots this season: a yellow ballot to elect your Mutual board of directors and a blue ballot to elect your GRF director(s). Shareholders in Mutuals 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 15 and 17 are scheduled to receive a mutual ballot. Mutual 10 shareholders are scheduled to receive a GRF ballot. • Has my ballot been mailed? More than half the mutual ballots have already been mailed to households in Leisure World Seal Beach. Check the election schedule (see page 5) to see when the ballots were mailed. The GRF ballots were mailed May 5. • There are three people who live in my unit; do we each receive a ballot? One ballot is mailed to each household. The first shareholder member at each unit to properly cast their ballot and return it in the pre-paid envelope “wins.” • My mutual ballot has a bylaw amendment; why should I vote to amend the bylaws? Mutuals 1, 3, 4, 5 and 7 have placed proposed bylaws amendments on the ballot. The subjects of the amendments range from reducing the number of directors who serve on the board to instituting staggered elections. The amendments were prepared by the mutuals’ legal counsel. Read the amendment information on the reverse of the ballot before casting your yes or no vote on the front of the ballot. • Can I use a proxy or designate someone to vote on my behalf? Proxies are not permissible in GRF elections but may be used in Mutual elections. To ensure the ballot’s integrity, ballot envelopes must be signed by the GRF member connected to that household. • Are write-in candidates permitted? Foundation bylaws do not permit write-in candidates for GRF directors. There is a space on most mutual ballots for writein candidates. However, for the vote to be properly cast for the write-in candidate, that candidate must be nominated at the annual meeting (called “nominated from the floor”) and must be present to accept the nomination. • My mail is forwarded to a post office box or an address outside the community. Will my ballot be forwarded to me? No. As the voting rights are tied to the unit, ballots are all mailed to the units. However, a replacement ballot can be mailed to you at the address of your choice. Call Accurate Voting Services toll free at (855) 588-5522 to request a replacement ballot. • The candidates on my ballot are running unopposed; why should I vote? Your participation in the election process is critical for the operation of this community. Every vote counts. Additionally, the return of your properly cast ballot ensures that your Mutual will obtain the necessary number of votes to produce the annual meeting and counting of ballots. • I don’t know the candidates running for my mutual’s board of directors; why should I vote? Read the candidate Statement 3 of Qualifications (often referred to as a resume or biography) included with the ballot for information. Ask candidates questions on topics that are important to you. Attend meet-the-candidates events. Ask your friends and neighbors their opinion. If you decide you still do not want to cast your votes for any of the mutual candidates, you are still strongly encouraged to vote by checking the box labeled “abstain from voting – ballot counted for quorum only” portion of the ballot. This lets you participate in the election process by returning a properly cast ballot. • I’ve heard a quorum is necessary before the ballots can be counted. What is a quorum? A quorum is the minimum number of members who must be present to make meeting proceedings valid. In the case of elections, your participation in the voting process, i.e. your properly cast ballot, counts as your attendance. A quorum of 33-1/3 percent of the mutual corporation membership is required before the mutual ballots can be counted. • I lost my ballot OR can’t remember if I mailed my ballot. What do I do? Call Accurate Voting Services toll free at 855-588-5522 to have a replacement ballot mailed to you or to confirm if your ballot was received. • Where do I mail the ballot? The yellow and blue mailing envelopes are postage-paid and pre-addressed to the Inspector of Elections, Accurate Voting Services, Inc., P.O. Box 6117, Laguna Niguel, CA 92607-6117. Drop the ballot in a U.S. Mailbox as soon as possible. Your ballot must be received before 12 noon on the business day BEFORE the annual meeting. You may also hand deliver your ballot to Clubhouse 4 on the day of the annual meeting. See instructions on your ballot for further information. Don’t forget to sign the outside return envelope! • I still have questions about annual meetings and elections. Who can help me? Contact Courtney Knapp, stock transfer supervisor, at 4316586, ext. 346, or courtneyk@ lwsb.com for assistance. Merger will affect more than 2 million The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) has approved the merger of Time Warner Cable and Charter Communications, making Charter the dominant pay-TV and Internet service provider in Southern California with more than 2 million customer homes, according to news reports. As part of the $67-billion deal, Charter Communications acquired Time Warner Cable and Bright House Networks after Administrative Law Judge Karl Bemesderfer recommended that the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) approve Charter’s takeover plans. The CPUC voted to accept that recommendation on the merger May 12. The deal is waiting for approval from the Federal Communications Commission and the U.S. Department of Justice. Those decisions are expected within the week.

THE BINGO CLUB Hawaiian Gardens Outside the Wall Outside The Wall Senior programs planned on Elder Abuse Awareness Day by Les H. Cohen, Mutual 15 Legislative Advocate Emeritus/OC Ombudsman According to the U.S Department of Health and Human Services, an estimated 5 million senior citizens are abused, neglected, and exploited. Each year on June 15, communities and municipalities around the world plan activities and programs to recognize World Elder Abuse Awareness Day (WEAAD). Its an opportunity to share information and Les H. Cohen spread awareness about abuse, neglect and exploitation in seniors’ lives. Everyone can make a difference, but together we can unite as one person, one action, one nation. Take a stand united against elder abuse. WEAAD was officially launched in 2006 by the International Network for the Prevention of Elder Abuse (INPEA) and World Health Organization (WHO) at the United Nations. When launched, the purpose was to provide opportunities for communities to promote a better understanding of elder abuse and neglect. That has been accomplished by raising awareness of the cultural, social, economic and demographics processes affecting the elder abuse situations. WEAAD serves as the international call for action as many cases of elder abuse or neglect as many cases go unreported. You can help by taking action to speak out.

THEATER CLUB—Tosca Lies (l-r), Taylor White and Sally Glausser hold yellow ribbon that will be used to make large bows for Yellow Ribbon Day. The large yellow bows will adorn the light poles along Golden Rain Road. Yellow is a common symbol of support for U.S. troops. It is also a remembrance for prisoners of war and those missing in action (POW/MIA). Theater Club Yellow Ribbon Day honors Vietnam vets by Taylor White LW contributor “Tie a Yellow Ribbon Round the Old Oak Tree”—this song, first sung in the early 1970s, has become an icon for welcoming home American military veterans. Back in the 1970s; however, veterans of the Vietnam War were not warmly welcomed when they came home. They did not get parades or applause at airports. Now more than 50 years later, the Leisure World Theater Club invites every resident of Leisure World to help give Vietnam veterans the “Welcome Home” they never had as part of LW’s Memorial Day observance on Monday, May 30, at the Amphitheater. Residents are asked to “Tie a Yellow Ribbon” somewhere on their property. The Theater Club will make large yellow bows that will be displayed along Golden Rain Road from the front entrance to the Amphitheater. Yellow Ribbon Day is not meant to diminish the honor and bravery of other veterans but to create a sense of belonging for all U.S. troops.

That was in 2005,” Nelson said. He has driven about 40,000 miles since then with no mechanical problems— after he remounted the rear suspension and got a new drive shaft.

Shanghai LW marathoner meets trio of runners Jeanne and Tom Pontac recently returned from a two-week trip to China. While on the bullet train to Shanghai, they ran into a trio of marathon runners, who had just completed the Wuhan Marathon the day before. As running is a universal language, Tom was able to understand and share their recent victory. In appreciation, he gave them one of his marathon shirts and they gave him one of theirs from the marathon, which he is wearing in the photo. The trip was terrific in many ways but this was definitely one of the surprise highlights which helped make it unexpectedly special. For a Healthy Lifestyle, Tom suggests joining the Leisure Leggers at 8 a.m. on Mondays at Clubhouse 6 for a brisk “walk and talk.” Dues are 99 cents a year to belong to the “Healthiest Club in Leisure World.” For information, call Tom at 304-0880.

Dorothy was born Sept. 13, 1918, in New York. She proudly served during World War II as part of the Navy’s Women Accepted for Volunteer Emergency Service (WAVES). Dorothy freely shared her love for the United States of America, and the freedoms we enjoy; with an abiding respect for the men and women of the military who continue to serve this country. Dorothy loved history earning a history degree in 1968 at California State College, Los Angeles. Her extensive research skills were helpful to her father in the preparation of speeches, and in tracing her family’s genealogy. As an extremely well read individual she could easily quote different philosophers and authors, providing the right context to invoke thought. Dorothy enjoyed writing poetry, gardening, painting and learning. She often described her father as a Renaissance man, but that description was more autobiographical. She is survived by her sister Sally Andelman, two nieces, three nephews and numerous grandnieces and grandnephews. She is interned at Mount Sinai Memorial Park Hollywood Hills Cemetery in Los Angeles, California. In Memoriam Elsie Lenahan 99, Mutual 1 April 1, 2016 SHOW From page 2 units were used in the filming is included. Many shareholders were used as extras in the show. After the PortaPak production is screened at the meeting, the finished episode that aired on NBC in November of 1986 will be shown. It was episode 6 from the show’s third season and is titled “Love at Second Sight.” It begins with Landon and co-star Victor French entering the community through the St. Andrews Gate. The episode aired on Nov. 5, 1986. All shareholders are invited to attend the screening of the documentary that shows how Leisure World became part of Hollywood. LUNCHEON: From page 16 residents are asked to bring a dish to share. Tickets will be available for the cash drawing and several other drawings. There will also be entertainment and various “showings” from talented Mutual 11 residents. par•lay - verb [trans] (parlay something into) Noun; A cumulative series of bets in which winnings accruing from each transaction are used as a stake for a further bet. Memorial Day, originally known as Decoration Day, started after the Civil War and became a federal holiday in 1971. My family always went to the cemeteries to decorate and honor the graves of our lost heroes who died while serving in the U.S. military. Sometimes there would be a parade and always a picnic. Many tasty recipes graced those picnic tables. My grandma’s fried chicken (freshly killed the day before by my grandpa, plucked and cut-up by mom) My grandma would dip each piece in spicy flour then in buttermilk and again in flour and fry in her cast iron chicken fryer. It was simply the best! My mom’s potato salad, Aunt Gwen’s cole slaw, celery sticks filled with pimento cheese spread, bread & butter pickles, black olives, cakes and pies and oh, so much more. Here is the recipe for a Strawberry Blueberry Pie that I just love, hope you will too! INGREDIENTS 1 frozen pie crust, follow instructions on package 1 lb fresh strawberries, washed and hulled ½ cup blueberries ( if frozen, thaw) ½ cup sugar 1 tbsp corn starch 1 small lemon, juiced 8 ounces softened cream cheese 2/3 cup sour cream ¼ cup sugar 1 tsp vanilla INSTRUCTIONS Cook pie crust according to package directions and cool completely, or make your own pie crust. Chop ½ pound of the strawberries., Cut the other ½ pound of strawberries in half. In a medium sauce pan, combine ½ cup sugar, corn starch, lemon juice, chopped strawberries and blueberries. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until thickened. Remove from heat In a medium mixing bowl combine softened cream cheese, sour cream, remaining sugar and vanilla. Using a hand mixer or a whisk, beat mixture until completely combined and smooth. Spread cream cheese mixture into bottom of completely cooled pie crust. Add the largely chopped strawberries to the thickened strawberry and blueberry glaze mixture and stir gently until they are all coated and then pour that mixture over the cream cheese mixture in the pie crust and refrigerate for 2-3 hours or until ready to serve. ******************************************************** CLASSIFIED Notice to Readers • Publication of advertisements in the LW News does not indicate an endorsement of any advertiser. • Readers are responsible for verifying claims, licenses, references, etc. • California law requires that contractors taking jobs that total $500 or more (labor and materials) be licensed by Contractors State License Board.
