The SVE Woodshop provides a great work and meeting place for residents who enjoy all aspects of woodworking. Club members willingly share their talents, and we learn and grow together.
Our four woodturning lathes are heavily utilized for making bowls, platters, vases, urns, pencil holders, canes, spindles, and ornaments. We would need a “time-slot” scheduling system if so many club members didn’t own their own lathes.
We have table saws, compound miter saws, band saws, drill presses, belt sanders and disc sanders. Planer, joiner, shaper, and router table see heavy use by our cabinetmakers, woodworkers, and woodturners. Experts use two scroll saws for intarsia and scrollwork. We have a separate fi nishing room to avoid dust contamination when putting a fi nish on
our projects.The SVE Woodshop has always been an important amenity
of our community. At fi rst it was very small, and sparsely equipped (by the developer) with low-cost equipment. Gradually, the old equipment has all been replaced with top-quality equipment. Ample space was provided by the Association when the Palo Verde Building was completed. Today, the Woodshop boasts an inventory of over $100,000 top-quality machines, power tools, hand tools, and supplies. The inventory has been provided through the funds raised by the Woodshop’s annual Spaghetti Dinner, project work for the Association and residents, and recycling of aluminum cans. The Association pays for and maintains our space and provides utilities.

ALS CHALLENGEOn August 26, SVE resident Mary Logan took the ALS
(Lou Gehrig Disease) Ice Bucket Challenge from one of her Lawton, OK childhood friends to do the same. She was helped with her SVE friends Ralph and Sue Edholm and Mary Jo and Don Courtright. Don performed the ceremonial dousing.
ALS affects primarily men 40 to 75 years of age. About 30,000 Americans have the disease. There is no cure. As of September 5, 2014, the ALS Association has received over 109 million dollars in donations due to the popularity of the Challenge on social media. This far surpasses previous years’ annual donations. Read more about this disease and challenge by visiting the ALS Association website at www.alsa.org.

Sunland Village East Outlook October 2014 3
CHAPEL NOTESPastor Richard Koerselman
As I sit and write this column, the greater Phoenix area is recovering from a massive, historic, rain storm. Before the monsoons go away for another year, the clouds decided to empty out all they had on one, single Monday morning. Retention basins spilled over into the streets, trees toppled over because of water soaked soil, cars stalled and traffi c tried to shrink from three lanes to one to get through the fl ooded roads.
The media called it a Monsoon Event. And it was. When rain comes to the Arizona desert, everything seems to slow down and in some cases stops completely. I was taken by surprise when I fi rst moved to the Valley to see people drop what they were doing, go to the window or stand under their covered patio and watch it rain. Rain was and still is an event.
I grew up on an Iowa farm, a land of gentle rolling hills, not too hilly to be subject to erosion and not too fl at which would prevent proper drainage. Iowa gets over 30 inches each year (Phoenix gets about 7) so the lay of the land is important. If Iowa were as fl at as the Valley, the crops would be fl ooded out.
But no matter where one lives or how much it rains, one thing we know. The God of the universe who manages billions and billions of planets, stars and whatever else is fl ying around us, also knows the value of rain to care for our planet earth.
The Bible says this about rain, crops, grounds and people: The ground receives a blessing from God when it drinks up
the rain that regularly comes and falls on it and yields useful plants for those who farm it. Hebrews 6:7 (The Common English Bible)
The ground here is almost given human qualities. It receives a blessing when it drinks up the rain. Whether it’s a fl ood of water or a mere one hundredth of an inch, the ground likes it and more importantly receives a blessing from God, because it is able to grow crops and water our beautiful, thirsty saguaros.
So the next time we get one of our rare rains, consider the ground, it is drinking heartedly as it is receiving a divine blessing from the Lord God who made it.
Garden Condo IIICongratulations to the hearty Summer Survivors, who
weathered another Arizona summer and monsoon season. It is time to stop bowling in the streets and welcome back the winter visitors of Garden Condo III. You have been missed!
To celebrate this, as well as greeting our newest residents, who moved in over the summer, we will let the good times roll. Our Fall Pizza Party will be held on November 13th in the Auditorium. Plan to join us at 5PM for social time. BYOB and snacks to share.
There will be catered pizza, salad and dessert, games and prizes, all for the bargain price of $7.00 per person. Cost of new friends? Priceless! This is a perfect opportunity to make new friends and renew old acquaintances. YOUR attendance is vital to a successful event. Watch the bulletin boards at the mailboxes for information on ticket sales.
A big thank you to JoAnn Wallgren and the many volunteers for heading these fun events in the past. We look forward to working with our volunteers to bring you festivities for the Fall Pizza Party, Winter Picnic in January and Spring Fling in March. If you are able to volunteer, we need You! The opportunities are for selling tickets, serving on the social committee and/ or cleaning up after the event. We are equal opportunity “employers”, both men and women are encouraged to volunteer. New ideas ALWAYS welcome. Please contact Julie or Teresa.
See you soon. Julie Hansen (678 448 8843) or Teresa Esterly (320 249 8898).

LIBRARY NEWSPOSIDON’S ADVENTURE is acclaimed to be Dirk Pitt’s
most dangerous adventure. It is the greatest advance in American defense technology in decades—an attack submarine capable of incredible underwater speeds. Nothing else in any other nation’s naval arsenal even comes close. There is only one problem: A key element of the prototype is missing—and the man who developed it is dead. At the same time, ships have started vanishing mid-ocean, usually never to be found again, but when they are, sometimes bodies are found aboard . . What is going on? And what does it have to do with an Italian submarine that disappeared in 1943, lost at sea? Or was she? And the author is? Who else but Clive Cussler. Cussler is a very popular and addictive author at the SVE library. The above information is paraphrased from the offi cial web site of Clive Cussler. His paperbacks alone take more than a shelf of space.
The SVE library has many forms of media – audio books, cd music, VHS tapes, and DVD’s, because the people of SVE are very generous to share with our community the items that they are no longer using. All donations are very much appreciated. However, the full shelves mean that some things should be weeded. Your help is needed. Please tell us what should be kept and what should be moved to other libraries. There is a notebook under the bulletin board that is waiting for your suggestions.
Wednesday, November 5th will be the volunteer meeting at the SVE library at 9:00 a.m. If you are interested in volunteering your time at our library, please come. For more information please call Loretta at 380-9840. If you have not been to the library, please come to see one of the SVE showcases.
ALZHEIMER’S/CAREGIVERS GROUP
If you know or live with someone who has memory loss, please come to the S.V.E Alzheimer’s/caregivers group on the third Thursday of the month at 1:00 pm in the Saguaro Room. You will receive excellent support, information and resources.
Next meetings will be October 16, November 20 and December 18. For further information call, Jan Vineyard at 480-373-5859.

DID YOU KNOW . . . Charlie Walker
The fi rst commercial ever broadcast over television was on July 1, 1941 over WNBT in New York, now WNBC. The camera focused on a wristwatch, and the announcer said, “It’s ten minutes after ten, Bulova watch time.” The commercial cost Bulova nine dollars.
Understand there is a kind of shrimp with eyes in its tail. Well okay, but how does it know where it’s going, not where it’s been?
Can’t remember how many g’s in exaggerate? Spelling trick: If you are bragging you’re exaggerating.
Tootsie Rolls were the fi rst wrapped candy in America. The “pone” is the person who sits on the dealer’s right in
a card game. Well okay, but where did they get that word?The French boxing federation offi cially banned fi ghters
from kissing each other at the end of their bouts in 1924. No comment on this one.
In the original Olympics, trainers were required to attend in the nude. Why? To stop women sneaking into the competitions from which they were banned. One woman had attended an event disguised as her son’s trainer, so came the ban.
Few Americans know which woman was the model for the Statue of Liberty that was designed by French sculptor Bartholdi. While working on the statue, he had his mother Charlotte, stand as the model because he said she looked strong and honest. Although she is practically unknown today, her face has been immortalized as one of the most famous in the world. (I had to put this one in.)

Travel NewsMickey Sommerfeld
Cruising is the ideal vacation for multi-generational families and senior travelers. Cruising caters to all ages and all kinds of personalities. There is card playing, movies, swimming, massages, art auction dance lessons, lectures, fantastic entertainment, fi tness center, aerobics, yoga, pilates, games (golf, tennis, bocce ball etc.), casino, ballroom dancing, shopping (I’m sure I haven’t mentioned everything) and just plain relaxing. The beauty of a cruise is dinner time when the entire family or friends can join together over a delicious meal (no dishes and clean-up to do) and reconnect, talk about the days adventures, pleasures or tours.
Join Warren and Mickey and many other SVE residentsfor a ten day Caribbean Cruise Jan. 18th, 2015 on the new Royal Princess. Cabins are selling fast and that means the price goes up so sign up soon.

We hope to see all of you who have signed up to bowl, and maybe there is the possibility of meeting some new bowlers.

Subs and those who would like to sub are also invited.

FITNESS CENTERPlan on coming to the “Discover Your Neighborhood”
event November 8th in the SVE Auditorium. Our Octane supplier, Gym Source, will be bringing in a new Octane Lateral machine for a two week demonstration for residents to try, beginning with the November 8th introduction. It is a three dimensional elliptical machine. The Fitness Club board is excited to introduce this piece of equipment to the SVE residents as a potential piece of equipment we would like to add to our Fitness Center. Come and try it out during the two week trial. With all the upgrades done this past summer, we are ready for our winter residents to return.
There are videos available for loan that show how our equipment works. The videos can also be borrowed to show a physical therapist what we have available. This lets the therapist recommend what a person can use after having completed physical therapy.
We still need your help and assistance. We would like to purchase additional exercise equipment. If you are in a position to help out, please make your check payable to “the Fitness Club” and mail or deliver it to the SVE HOA offi ce at 2145 S. Farnsworth Drive, Mesa, AZ 85209. All contributions will be greatly appreciated and will be honored on a future plaque. Thanks for your continued support of our great facility and all the positive and favorable comments.

SHUFFLEBOARD CLUB NEWS
Carleton MooreFall is here, the weather is cooling and people are
returning to SVE so we can play shuffl eboard again. We play Monday, Wednesday and Saturday at 9:00am as soon as the wax won’t melt on the boards –we hope this will be October 13. Keep your eyes on the bulletin boards at the shuffl eboard courts to see when we begin. If you’ve played before come on back; or if you’ve never played, we will be glad to show you the tricks (if we haven’t forgotten them). We are a friendly group and usually have coffee and cookies on Saturday. Come on down, up or over as the case may be. You may play any or all days. The boards are north of the auditorium near the tennis courts. If you take a peek, you can see if things are starting.
We play two games for ten cents a game. You win, you get your opponent’s dime. Yes, there is an athletic scholarship fund for those who forget their dime. We call those open play games “jackpot” games. All equipment is furnished If I can play you can too! Please come. Our president is Marion Yoder 656-4626.
Tennis TalkDiana Roskuski
More seasonal Club members are arriving daily! To get everyone in the swing of things for the 2014-15 season, the annual Welcome Back Chili Party for Tennis Club members and spouses will be hosted by Paul & Lona Christoffers on their patio beginning at 5 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 25th. A sign-up sheet to bring a dish will be posted at the courts.
The Venture Out Fall Classic tournament begins on Oct. 27th , and East Valley Senior Tennis League play begins on Nov. 3rd.
The SVE Tennis Club welcomes new players of any skill level. If you are new
in the Village and would like to play next season in League, contact Roger Betts for rating/team information at 480-319-9036 or [email protected] . Free lessons for beginners begin in mid-November.
There are numerous tips for doubles strategy on the internet; here are two from P. J. Simmons, a self-proclaimed Tennisaholic and student of the game:
Get your fi rst serve in! As soon as you miss your fi rst serve, your opponents get into “attack” mindset (or should!) on your second serve. Take a little pace off to boost your fi rst serve percentage. The team with the highest
fi rst serve percentage in doubles has a big advantage.
Move with your partner and cover the middle! Move with your partner - left and right, up and back – think of “windshield wipers” moving as a unit and follow the ball. If your partner (or opposing player) is pulled out side, one of you should be touching the center line of the court with one foot to be covering the middle. There’s only one exception to moving like windshield wipers: if you hit the ball to the middle of the opposing court, you and your partner should move in slightly towards each other to cover the middle.

DOGS ‘R US
L. PaulsenCele Mae is a chubby little 5-pound Chihuahua at home
with Sue Carr. She will be 9 years old on Oct. 2. Sue had never had a dog before adopting Cele Mae. A friend of Sue’s was looking for a dog, and Sue found this little girl puppy in Apache Junction. At six weeks old, she picked up the dog for her friend, only to fi nd that her friend couldn’t have a dog.
Cele Mae has a favorite friend she loves to meet early in the morning. Sue walks her down to the Palo Verde building where she meets Mary Garcia at work. Mary always has a treat and some loving caresses for her favorite puppy.
Recently, Sue had an accident and had to be taken to the hospital. Cele Mae went to her little house and cried when they took Sue out the door. Some great help followed for Cele, fi rst with Gary Chestek taking her to Betty Elm’s and then Darlene Sandifur took her home with her until Sue was able to be home again. It’s so great to have help when you need it.
Cele Mae is the friendliest, sweetest, kissy little dog, and everyone who meets her loves her.
The next meeting of the Dog Club will be October 18 in the Mesa Verde room. Coffee at 9:30 a.m. and meeting at 10. Offi cers are: Joyce Huettner, President; Peggy Rasberry, Secretary; Linda Ansell and Sue Moody, Treasurers.
“Compassion for animals is intimately connected with goodness of character; and it may be confi dently asserted that he who is cruel to animals cannot be a good man.” Schaupenhauer. FAMILY HOME
EVENINGDarlene Rich
The Family Home Evening Group meets the second Monday of every month in the Mesa Verde Room at 6:00 pm. We have a pot luck dinner followed by a wide variety of programs. Our pot luck dinners are always delicious and more than plenty of food. Please bring enough to serve about 10 - 12 people. We furnish all table service items and water to drink for the meal.
The program planned for our October 13th meeting is one of our fun theme nights. It will be all about “babies” and will include games, music and entertainment! Please bring a photo of yourself as a baby no older than two years old if possible. If not, bring what you have. We will be identifying who is who. Also bring a photo of “the cutest baby in your family” to be voted on. We promise not to tell your family which child, grandchild, or great grandchild you picked, but maybe they will win a blue ribbon! Be sure to keep your photos covered or in a sack until we are ready to show them. Someone will be collecting them to display for the games.
Feel free to bring your friends. All are welcome! However, please call Darlene Rich at 986-6985 to advise if you plan to attend so that we can have an accurate count for the table space we will need. See you there with your photos!
