Pickleball Tourney Raises $4K for Assistance League


Sun City’s Pickleball Club continues to gather steam in whatever effort it undertakes. Climbing membership, check; soaring competition, check; successful tournaments, check. The latter is especially true as the Club hosted its second tournament to benefit Operation School Bell, a program of the Assistance League of Las Vegas that helps outfit schoolchildren in need with clothing and educational supplies.
According to Club President Augie Costanzo, the tournament, which was held last month at Desert Vista, welcomed players from Arizona, California, Nevada, Utah and Wisconsin in competition that included Women’s Doubles (30 players); Men’s Doubles (26 players); and Mixed Doubles (48 players). In all, the tournament hosted 104 players and raised over $4,586. After expenses, the Club donated more than $4,000 to the Assistance League, double what it turned in last year.   
Augie wishes to thank all the volunteers who put in countless hours to ensure the Club's tournaments go off without a hitch. "Without the volunteers, our success would not be possible," he said.

he Summit has heard residents’ requests and is happy to offer a special dinner event on Saturday, May 25, 6-9 p.m. The idea for the event draws from the popular Sunday brunches, which have been attracting happy crowds who enjoy a delicious menu and the live piano stylings of Rod Ouano.
The event includes a choice of two dinner entrees – sirloin steak with mashed potatoes, green beans and rice pilaf, along with a mixed green salad and a dessert of either lemon cake or strawberry cheesecake. Dinner option 2 features salmon Marsala, brown rice, roasted red potatoes, honey-glazed carrots with a mixed green salad and dessert. The dinner is priced at $35 for members; $40 for non-members.
In addition to the food, The Summit Trio Band will entertain diners as they enjoy their meals, table conversation and an unbeatable view of the Las Vegas Skyline.
Tickets are on sale now at The Summit Snack Bar. Get them now before the event sells out.

Don't Park on Sun City Curbs

​SCSCAI reminds residents when parking on Sun City streets to be mindful of the rounded curbs. While it is easy to roll up onto the curb and sidewalk while parking your car and leave it there, it is actually a violation of a city parking law, which can net you a ticket.

CORRECTION

Virtual Vietnam Wall

​We have all heard, and many of us have seen the Vietnam Memorial Wall. Did you know that there is now a virtual wall available on the Web? At virtualwall.org, you can access information on those who served or were lost by clicking on the state, city (or in many cases the neighborhood) where the U.S. veteran lived. The names will appear in alphabetical order. One click and you can access their picture, a short military biography and medals awarded.
