Renewing Vows on Valentine’s Day
Seventeen SVE couples gathered in the auditorium to celebrate Valentine’s Day by renewing their wedding vows, officiated by Reverend Korselman. The Village Singers and several piano players entertained while many enjoyed cake and punch. A big thanks to everyone who volunteered with their talents to make this Valentine’s Day special!
Construction Activity at SVE
Arizona Cinematographer Larry Arbana demonstrates a drone outside the auditorium. The SVE Computer Club invited Larry to do a slide presentation of photos of Arizona taken with his drone.
There will be a lot of construction activity near the tennis complex this summer as all six courts will be reconstructed along with new fencing and other appearance improvements. This will begin late April and be completed in August.
During the reconstruction, no courts will be available for play. They will reopen once they are all completed, after the final inspection and acceptance of the work. Hopefully, those tennis players here over the summer will be able to find other courts in the area to play on such as the local high school tennis courts.
Residents will notice construction traffic and noise such as truck beeping noises and other activity. There will likely be a few very early morning (2-6 a.m.) distractions also when concrete is placed since cooler temperatures are important for quality concrete. More updates will be coming with more specific information. We will also notify residents in the immediate area individually.
We will be sending out updates on all of the projects going on in the community this summer so residents are aware of what to expect. Thanks for your patience and understanding.
Representatives of the tennis club raised $120,000 which will go toward renovating the tennis courts this summer. Bingo representatives are donating $30,000 for the project. The Association Board of Directors thanks everyone for their generous donations.

CHAPEL NOTESRichard Koerselman
When Alaska experienced a terrible earthquake a couple decades ago, the governor’s wife said that she had received many letters and phone calls asking her to help people’s relatives and friends. She also received many offers of help. But she received one letter she won’t forget. It was from a ten-year-old boy from Bemidji, Minnesota, who sent her two nickels. He said he hoped it would help some of the suffering the quake had caused. In a postscript to his letter he had written these words: “P.S. If you need more, please let me know.”
I like the little boy’s generosity, and I like his readiness to give more if it was needed. And he showed confidence in his gift even though it was small.
It is easy for us to overlook small donations. When there is a big multi-million drive by a church or university, very
large donors may be listed, but rarely do we see a list of the small contributions.
The Bible says this about a small giver:As Jesus looked up, he saw the rich putting their gifts into
the temple treasury. He also saw a poor widow put in two very small copper coins. “Truly I tell you,” he said, “this poor widow has put in more than all the others. All these people gave their gifts out of their wealth; but she out of her poverty put in all she had to live on.” Luke 21:1-4
We lift up the givers whose contributions may be small but that doesn’t mean their commitment is any less. If they are giving out of their poverty, they are making a sacrifice - probably giving up something else in order to help out. That is called sacrificial giving which is the kind of giving Jesus was commending.

PANCAKE BREAKFAST Ed Malone
Oops! I goofed. I sent the wrong article to the Outlook staff for the March Outlook. My bad.
Our February breakfast got off to a fast start. We served 109Guests by 7:15am. For the morning we served 619 guests plusStaff. After expenses, our profit was $2047.00.
During the March breakfast, we served 657 guests and 5 kids plus staff. After expenses our profit was $2063.00.
For you to get a feel for how much food we use at a breakfast, this month we used 150 lbs of pancake mix, 12 gallons of syrup, 23 gallons of orange juice, 60 quarts if liquid eggs and approximately 1440 sausages. Plus coffee, salsa etc. It gets to be a big deal.
Our volunteers not only make and serve the food but cleanup afterward. They are VERY SPECIAL!
SVE is a great place to live and work.

FITNESS CENTERDiane Loram
Mobility, stability and strength are the three components of synergistic training. This approach maximizes strength, reduces the chance of injuries and improves daily life and sports performance. It’s based on the idea that the whole body is more than the sum of its parts.
Stability is a skill that becomes better with practice. Standing helps balance while sitting requires little or no stability skill. People between the ages of 50 and 90 stand less and sit more, resulting in reduced stability. It isn’t until people reach 70 to 80 years of age that most people begin to notice instability. What can you do? Research balance and stability exercises and incorporate the ones that fit you the best into your workouts. Be sure to practice them in a safe and controlled environment.
Your assistance is needed to assure the Fitness Center equipment is maintained in good working order. There have been a number of issues with failure of the audio jacks on the treadmills, bikes, etc. These jacks will only accept 3.5 mm headset plugs. If your headset plug doesn’t easily fit into the jack – do not force it. Forcing it causes it to “stretch” and thus fail for other users. Jack replacement costs approx. $60. This repair is done at the quarterly maintenance check by the manufacturer representative, thus possibly leaving them inoperable for months. Service trip calls between quarterly maintenance are very expensive.
Your support in protecting our investment in the Fitness Centers is appreciated.
GENEALOGY Bonnie Catton
At our March meeting, members were asked to
select an ancestor and give a talk about that person. There was quite a variety presented. Some of interest were connected to famous people like Henry Ford’s chauffeur and his story. Another
ancestor story revealed an historical antiguary to Henry VIII dating back to 1500s
from England before families began emigrating to other countries. Thanks to everyone for sharing your ancestor’s story.
We would like to thank Bev Bachman, for her presentation on using family tree maker as a valuable resource to store and share family history. Bev has maintained excellent records both paper and electronic. Writing our family story was discussed and time to get it done is now for each and everyone of us.
For our next meeting, April 18th, Katie Gertz will be our guest speaker. Katie’s talk will be: An Immigrants Road to Citizenship. Katie is the president of the East Valley Chapter of the Family History Society of Arizona. She gives presentations on genealogy topics all over the Phoenix area and California. Katie teaches many computer classes in both Mac and PC and also does repairs. Katie always is a welcomed speaker and gives an exceptional and informative talk that you won’t want to miss!
April 18th will be our last meeting until next fall. Our group will resume meeting on October 17th, 2018. We meet the third Wednesday of the month at 9 am in the Mesa Verde room. We welcome new members to join us in finding your family history. Remember to update your email address to receive Gary VanValkenburg’s informative and interesting emails with genealogy bits, hints and tips. Gary also has asked members to be thinking of ideas for speakers and programs for next year.
Thank you everyone for your interest and participation this past season. Have a wonderful summer and hopefully you will share your genealogy finds next October.

Take time out from your tax worries and join us on Monday, April 9, for a pot luck meal, fellowship and a serenade by the Desert Choir Grpoup. They are a group of sixty to seventy adults who love to sing. They are directed by Holly Ashby. The Desert Choir Group will be bringing us a variety of songs from patriotic to classical with a few show tunes in the mix. They have a fantastic accompanist, Maureen Magnusson, who by herself, is a joy to hear.
The musicians come from all walks of life, including retired school teachers and professional musicians, men and women who have sung and performed most of their lives. They perform their beautiful music at mobile home parks, churches, hospitals and assisted living homes. They love to put a smile on everyone’s face. Hope you will come out and enjoy this evening of beautiful music!
Because of the size of the group meeting with us, we will be meeting in the larger Oakwood room directly behind our normal meeting place. We hope to see you at 6pm.

We expanded the Quilt Show to three rooms and hope all who attended enjoyed the wonderful items on display and found the way to the Mesa Verde room where Elaine Ekdom was our featured quilter. She had many quilts but also products of different art forms.
Bettelu Baker has many classes set up each month that are well attended.
We had lots of quilts at the Craft Fair and hope you found one for yourself that might be a gift to you or another loved one.
Darlene Mathews, Twyla Roos, and Patty Sneller were in charge of our first rummage sale last month and it was a hit.
This month we are doing a shower for Helen’s Hope Chest that works with foster childrenwho go to the Chest four times a year.
Dianne Hetland has become our official photographer.. Congrats.
Mary Lou Harp has taken over the raffle quilt and has worked very hard getting our quilt to the public at pancake breakfasts and quilt shops.
Cindy Stone intrigued us with quilts themed by zentangle,a doodle kind of art that can transform into any medium and Cindy showed two she had made that had to be pieced together and quilted with math in mind.
Alice Leach enlightened us on needles, thread and batting. A lesson showed the use of the right needle for the fabric. Also, the weight of thread to fabric must fit,so that thread does not show as a heavy line , and batting must not appear too thick.

LADIES’ GOLFKay Romstadt
Blue skies and sunshine .. that’s what is flooding our golf course to the pleasure of our golf leagues! We received and posted a note from Leisure World, thanking the ladies from SVE who participated in their recent Invitational. Leisure World, in turn, sent several of their players to participate in our 9-Hole Invitational, and we again congratulate the SVE winners Gaylene Thomson and Joy Stevens!
We also had 36 ladies travel to Sunland Village for their Home and Home. The winners of that event were Connie Binfet and Tarri Minor. We congratulate them and know they will use their talents in planning and co-hosting next year’s event, along with the two first-place winners from Sunland Village.
Our ladies’ 9-hole and 18-hole leagues play every Tuesday and Thursday here at Sunland Village East, and we would be happy if you could join us! If you have any questions, feel free to call our president, Judy Hileman, at 724-714-7477. For those winter residents who will be leaving us for the next several months, travel safely and know that we will miss you. Enjoy your reunion with family and friends .. and hurry back to us for another season in the Valley of the Sun!
CLUBS/SPORTSTENNIS TALK
Sandy SaxenaThe Tennis Club’s March tournament was a grand finale to

A big salute to SVE winners: 1st Place - - Bernie Koob & Dave Stoudt (1.5); 2nd Place - - Kathy Fackrell & Kris Peterson (4+); 1st Place Consolation - - Carol Stoudt & Jean Rock (1.5), Ray Vikander & Mark Groher (2.0); 2nd Place Consolation - - Rhonda Breese & Suzie Manternach (1.5), Eric Manternach & Darrell Kennedy (1.5), Jan Schuler & Eileen Stephenson (2.0), Steve Breese & Brian Bettin (2.5), and, Paul Fackrell & Doug Robinson (4+).
Most of our 200 Tennis Club members volunteer in multiple capacities during the championships, and their work is appreciated for our biggest fundraising effort of the year. This year our fundraising goes towards the renovations of the courts. Special thanks to Tournament Director, Tom Bostock and Concession Director, Marilyn Owen.
An enthusiastic group of members purchased almost 75 pies at the annual auction to raise funds for the Multiple Sclerosis Society on February 18. Almost $7,500 was donated that day and will sponsor the SVE Tennis Club team in the November MS Walk at the Phoenix Zoo.
Officers for the 2018-19 season are: Doug Shjeflo, president; Tom Matrejean, vice president; Dorothy Danielson, secretary; and, Cindy Clark, treasurer.
Renovation of the tennis courts should begin in late April. Come up and watch with us as the courts go through changes.
Join us at the courts!

VOLLEYBALLMarcia Gregorac
The first Monday in March 5, we will have a potluck at 5:00pm at Mesa Verde room.
Volleyball is 8-9 Monday-Saturday , number of players and weather permitting, no need to sign up in advance.
We meet at the pickle ball courts behind the south swimming pool.
We meet thru April. Come, play and bring new friends. Any questions,call Marcia 347-819-6144.
WATER VOLLEYBALLMike Lauer
If you are contemplating playing water volleyball, there is no time like the present. Beautiful weather, fun-loving people, low impact exercise. Why wait?
We usually play on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at 2:00 pm but sometimes none of the “regulars” show up and set up the court. The reason for that is that the players that want to play regularly participate in an email notification system that lets us know that we have at least six players. When less than six players “sign up” to play, we don’t set up the court.
I would be glad to introduce you to the game. We can meet at the pool, hit the ball around, and discuss the game. I can also tell you on game days around 12:30 pm if we are going to play that day. Just give me a call.
Don’t forget your sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat. We also recommend water shoes. Visit us on Facebook at “SVE Water Volleyball.” If you have questions about our group, please call Mike Lauer at 602-291-2823.

SUNSATIONALS Vickie Briscoe
The Sunsational’s jazz dancers are the highlighted group this month. This enthusiastic group is working on their show-stopping dance to “Hurray for Hollywood.” Our instructor, Stephani Szoke, has choreographed a delightful dance celebrating the tinsel town. With kicks, turns, fancy footwork and sexy sashays, the dancers bring to life the flair of old Hollywood. They will definitely add “jazz” to next year’s Sunsational Review.
All of the Sunsationals are working diligently on their dances, whether it be jazz, clogging or tap. Though not all of us get every step right, yet there is still a great deal of laughter and camaraderie that makes the whole experience fun. The dancing, sweating, learning, and laughing make for fun and successful sessions.

Not many dull moments in the lives of the Azulies. Three new board members were elected in February to serve a 2-year term. Our new president is Scott Rowe. Outgoing board member and president Gerry Tillman expressed his gratitude to the association for the help and support he received during the past years.
Our streets are now looking great thanks to the company who did the crack seal and seal coating near end of February.
March 3 our annual golf tournament was held. Congratulations to the First Place Team--Evan De Boer, Al Mechem, Colleen Brown, Lois Jordheim and Second Place Team--Ron Nelson, Bob Bomstad, Elaine Schueller, Judy Hardes. Following the tournament, ham sandwiches and potluck dishes were enjoyed. Thanks to Jim Tollefsbol and his wife Gloria for organizing this fun event.
March 12 is the date for starting our re-roofing project. Notices will be sent via e-mail with approximate dates you can expect your condo to be re-roofed. It has been suggested to remove pictures from walls and precious nick-nacks from shelves to ensure they are not affected by any vibrations that may occur. The project should be completed by end of June, 2018.
It was a fun evening for all those who attended our March 27th Mexican themed Farewell Party.

PICKLEBALLPaula Henry
In March we had our annual end-of-the year celebration with a fabulous pot-luck and dance music. We ate and danced the night away – until 8:30. Retirement living got us home and in bed early. We jitterbugged;we line danced and we slow danced. We had somekaraoke entertainment and we were definitely entertained as Bob, Brad and Coert danced the night away. Thanks guys; it was fun watching you. We had a limbo contest to see how low we could go. Congrats to Sylvia who won the limbo contest. We had a $1.00 dance for the honor of dancing with two special guys. Most importantly, we enjoyed a dance off to find out who among us had been married the longest. Congratulations to Gene and Elaine Fedrenko with 63 years; Les and Betty Johnson with 60 years and Mert and Nancy Hubbard with 59 years. You all inspire us.
In March we had our first ever interclub co-ed, ladies and men’s March Madness competitive fun event. Thanks to Linda Johnson and Christy Vanderhill for overseeing this event. It was neat to see our competitive natures surface and to watch some great pickleball play! It is so true what they say, “It is not whether you win or lose, it is how you play the game” that counts. Friendship, laugher, fun and nourishment filled both days. We invite you to join us at the courts for a pickleball welcome and to let us introduce you to pickleball.
