Manager’s Corner GENERAL MANAGER’S REPORT - SEPTEMBER 2014 Hello Trilogy! Over the past few months there have been lots of talk regarding the drought situation in California. In addition, there have been a number of regulations and restrictions imposed by Governor Brown. These restrictions have been reported on the internet, in newspaper articles, and on the local news; therefore, many of you may already be aware of them. The Trilogy Maintenance Association gets its water from Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District and Lee Lake Water District. The Association and Valley Crest Landscape are in James Niccoli constant communication with these agencies regarding the regulations and restrictions. The General Manager Association and Valley Crest are working together to comply with these restrictions and because it is such an important topic I have asked Valley Crest to share with the community: A) What actually are the restrictions imposed by Elsinore Valley Municipal and Lee Lake Water Districts and B) What is Valley Crest doing in order to comply with the restrictions. The following information is provided by Valley Crest Landscape: With California facing one of the most severe droughts on record, Governor Brown declared a drought State of Emergency in January 2014 and directed state officials to take all necessary actions to prepare for water shortages. Governor Brown asked all Californians to voluntarily reduce water consumption by 20 percent. Since then, many water agencies have implemented their own water use restrictions. Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District, which supplies water to most of the common areas throughout Trilogy HOA, has elevated their Water Restrictions to Stage II which is no longer simply voluntary cutbacks. Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District - Current Stage II water use restrictions are as follows: Water Use Prohibitions: • Washing down sidewalks or driveways • Overwatering, causing water to run off of a landscaped area • Using a hose without an automatic shutoff nozzle to wash a vehicle • Using a fountain or water feature unless the water is re-circulated Guidelines for outdoor water use and irrigation for residential and commercial: • Use sprinkler irrigation systems between the hours of 6:00 P.M. and before 6:00 A.M. • Limit sprinkler operation to no more than three times per week. • Watering by hand, with drip irrigation or reclaimed water is ok during daylight hours. • Sprinklers and irrigation systems should be adjusted to avoid overspray, runoff and waste. • Watering on windy days should be avoided. • Fix leaks or broken irrigation equipment as quickly as possible to reduce waste. Lee Lake Water District, which provides water to all the residences, (which includes the front yard irrigation), has not implemented any mandatory restrictions other than not irrigating between the hours of 6:00 A.M. to 6:00 P.M. Valley Crest has modified the existing irrigation scheduling to comply with the new restrictions. Since the common area landscape will now only be receiving 3 days of irrigation, signs of stress may show up in common turf areas. In addition, the Trilogy Board of Directors approved converting the Trilogy Parkway medians from turf to planters with drip irrigation and California water friendly plants. This will put a stop to the excessive runoff and save the HOA in overall water consumption.

Manager’s Corner… In order to maximize water use and prevent runoff as best as possible (it is almost impossible to stop runoff altogether), Valley Crest has programmed the controllers to use the cycle and soak method of irrigation. For example, instead of watering all at once, the sprinklers will be set to water the turf: • Up to 3 times a night • Approximately 5 minutes each watering zone • At least 1 hour in between each watering cycle Watering in increments gives compacted soil adequate time to soak up water. Once the water from the first round of watering is absorbed, then watering again about an hour later, the already moist soil will enable additional water to travel even deeper to the roots and in turn, create a healthier lawn. Valley Crest is also aware and sensitive to the effects the irrigation may have on your water bills. Nobody wants outrageous water bills; however, nobody wants to look at dead yellowing turf in the front yards either. The solution is to find that happy median point with over 1,147 residents (condos excluded); which you can imagine isn’t easy. Valley Crest is committed to providing excellent water management services and to providing solutions for creating a beautiful, yet sustainable landscape for the community. If you have issues please let us know so we can take the necessary steps to correct them. Message from Southern California Gas Company: SoCal Gas Customer Assistance programs Your community members may be eligible for a 20% discount on their monthly natural gas bill at their primary residence. SoCal Gas customers may also receive a discount on their Service Establishment Charge when starting new service. Discounts will be received once the easily completed application is approved by SoCal Gas. Recently the income requirements to qualify for California Alternate Rates for Energy (CARE) were raised so that a family of four that earns up to $47,700 can now receive the 20% off of their monthly natural gas bill. This also qualifies families for our Energy Savings Assistance Program for free energy-saving home upgrades such as attic insulation, window/door weather caulking, water heater blankets, furnace repairs and even sometimes furnace replacement. For more information, go to http://socalgas.com/for-your-home/assistance-programs/ RECENTLY COMPLETED PROJECTS: • Tree Trimming – Tree trimming for the month of August consisted of Noble Canyon. The trimming crews will begin work in Corral Canyon in September. Please note: the trees are trimmed to promote health and growth and because certain species are trimmed at different times of the year or every other year, not every tree may be trimmed in your canyon. In addition, the Association does not guarantee views and will not trim or top a tree for this reason.

Pacific Crest Lodge Automatic Door Opener – The automatic door operator for the main doors at the Pacific Crest Lodge have been installed. The opener operates the right side door as you enter the Lodge and the left side door as you exit the Lodge.

Lake Center Painting – Painting of the Lake Center trim, trellis and the Amphitheater trellis were completed by Painting Unlimited.

Asphalt Repair on Whitetail Drive – A sinkhole was repaired on Whitetail Drive near the emergency gate. The repair was performed by Nelson Paving Company.

Manager’s Corner… •

Library Leak – A leak in the ceiling of the library was repaired by the in-house maintenance staff and painted white to help create a lighter environment.

PROJECTS IN PROGRESS: • Drought Projects – At the August 5, 2014 General Session meeting the Board approved to remove the turf in the medians on Trilogy Parkway. The project will eliminate the current water runoff coming from the medians and generate significant water savings. In addition, 95% of the project is being paid for from a rebate program offered by the Metropolitan Water District. The Association has qualified and has received approval. The Association is currently acquiring final Riverside County approval and the work is tentatively scheduled to begin in late September.

Lake 16 - The Lake is still in bad shape and the golf course has not decided on a course of action. However, Management and representatives from the Board of Directors met on August 18, 2014. The Golf course explained to the Board that fixing the lake is a high priority; unfortunately, because the golf course is controlled by the courts and not a bank there are limited funds for capital improvement. The golf course is expected to provide the Board, their solution, in writing, regarding Lake 16 by mid September. Let’s keep our fingers crossed.

Speed Bumps - The report that Boulevard Engineering Studio’s performed on Cuyamaca Drive along with their speed control recommendations were presented to the Board at the August 5, 2014 General Session meeting. The Board understands that Cuyamaca is a private street and the Board is not obligated to follow the recommendation provided by Boulevard Engineering Studio. In addition, The Board may choose to do all of the recommendations or some of the recommendations all at once or in phases. The Board is scheduled to have further discussion regarding the speed bumps at the September 2, 2014 General Session meeting.

Community Website - The service agreement between the Association and Exolet, the new website provider, has been signed and executed. Exolet has met with the Communications Committee and will begin creating the new website. The website will take up to four (4) to six (6) months to be completed.

25 MPH Speed Limit Signs - At the August 5. 2014 General Session meeting the Board approved the purchase and installation of Speed Limit signs at all entry gates. The signs are scheduled to be installed in mid September.

AC Units for Blue Water Sports Club - At the August 5, 2014 General Session meeting the Board approved the purchase and installation of five (5) new high efficiency air conditioning units for the Blue Water Sports Club. The old units have become worn down and constantly needed repair and maintenance. In addition, the Association will be receiving $19,600 in rebates from Southern California Edison. The Association is currently acquiring final Riverside County approval and the work is tentatively scheduled to begin in late September or early October.

Lifestyles Desk… LAST DAYS IN VIETNAM During the chaotic final days of the Vietnam War, the North Vietnamese Army closes in on Saigon as South Vietnamese resistance crumbles. With the specter of a Communist victory looming and only a skeleton crew of diplomats and military operatives still in the country, the United States prepares to withdraw. As they begin to realize the reality of certain imprisonment and possible death of their South Vietnamese allies, American diplomats and soldiers confront a moral quandary: obey White House orders to evacuate only U.S. citizens, or risk being charged with treason and save the lives of as many South Vietnamese citizens as they can. With the clock ticking and the city under fire, heroes emerge as a small handful of Americans take matters into their own hands. Renowned Sundance Film Festival veteran Rory Kennedy dares to reopen the books on a war that scarred our national psyche. Chronicling a story few of us know, Kennedy’s potent documentary may both shock you and restore your faith in humanity. This film has not yet been rated

Hoping to find a young cricket pitcher he can turn into a major league baseball star, JB travels to India to produce a reality show competition called "Million Dollar Arm." He discovers Dinesh and Rinku, two 18 year old boys who have no idea about playing baseball, yet have a knack for throwing a fastball.

Blue Water Sports Club… COACHES CORNER Trilogy Fit Tip September 2014 There Is Wellness Success in Numbers! I know many people who are successful exercising regularly on their own. They plan their workout into their daily schedule, they have a routine that they know by heart, and they have the internal motivation to get to the sports club under any circumstances. Don’t you hate people like that? I’m kidding! Self-motivated people always impress me, but many of us—myself included--can benefit from exercising in a group. Group exercise classes, like the ones available at the Blue Water Sports Club, can be the remedy for all the reasons you tell yourself you will never be successful with an exercise program:

Meg Root ACE Certified Advanced Health & Fitness Specialist

• “I don’t hold myself accountable.” Trilogy is a community that feels like a family. If you’re MIA from a class, you may get a friendly knock on the door wondering where you are! • “I don’t know what to do.” The instructor takes care of that. There are classes for every fitness level and plenty of exercise modifications to make it safe and enjoyable for you. • “I can’t afford it.” When you do the math, classes cost only a few dollars. And if you’re into bargains, the more you go, the less they cost! What a motivator! • “Exercise is boring.” Trust me—not around here! With motivating music, fun routines, and plenty of laughs, exercise is anything but boring at the BWSC! Are you struggling to get your wellness in gear? Don’t go it alone. Call a friend and visit a class together. The first one is on us! You’ll be surrounded by the best support system in town and we won’t let you down! This fitness tip was brought to you by Meg Root. Meg is an ACE certified Advanced Health and Fitness Specialist. She teaches two specialty classes at the Blue Water Sports Club on Monday mornings: 9AM Strength, Mobility, and Balance, and 10am Moving for Wellness--a perfect class for beginners. E-mail her for more information at buffaloroamranch@yahoo.com.

Don’t forget to sign up for some great fitness classes at the Blue Water Sports Club.

PICKLEBALL CLUB Come join us Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8am to Noon and Sunday from 8:30 am to 11:00 am to find out why Pickleball is the fastest growing sport in America! We now have 4 courts for play for all levels of skill, and have paddles and balls available for new players. Unlike other racquet sports that require years to develop a variety of "strokes" and that depend upon a power serve; Pickle ball is a game that is easy to learn and play and with a little practice women and men compete on the same level. Starting all games with an underhand serve, it is a game of shot placement and volley. With the smaller court (from the picture you can see 4 courts fit within our Tennis court # 2), you get an excellent aerobic work out without the "pounding" of running all over a tennis court. Join us for great fun and a fun "work out". Come to the court at the days/times above and sign up at the desk in the lodge or contact Les Kuhns.

Chartered Club News… PHOTOGRAPHY CLUB At the August Photography Club meeting, results of the election were announced. Ellen Moralez joins Chuck Steen as co-president and the Board remains the same. We extend a huge thank you to Carol Revers for serving as co-president the last two years. The August Photo of the Month category was “Pictures That Tell A Story”. Bill Zastrow’s picture of the Lake at Hole 16 on the Trilogy Golf Course is the winning photo. The winning photos in the “Other” category were taken by Julie Craig of a baby in a flower pot and Judy Cheek at Yellowstone National Park. Since the majority of photos can be improved with simple editing techniques, Pamela Stahl provided us with a presentation on the basic editing steps. They are: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

Flip the photo (if needed). Crop as necessary. Resize ensuring you maintain the aspect ratio. Enhance by adjusting brightness and contrast and/or by sharpening the photo. If happy with the results, save your adjustments.

She then demonstrated how to enhance a photo by using contrast and adjusting the lighting level. Pamela finished her presentation by showing how to take a hazy photo and enhancing the sky to bring out the blue. Next month’s Picture of the Month category is “Before and After” using the basic editing techniques for adjusting brightness and contrast or by sharpening the photo. This provides us the opportunity to practice what Pamela presented. For all members and prospective members, annual dues are due in September. Please bring $12.00 cash with you to the September meeting. If you are interested in photography or any of our planned topics, please join us at a meeting. Meeting dates and planned activities for the next three months are: September 11th October 9th November 13th

Presentation by Harold Wolff on flash photography followed by a practice session Team activity Presentation on creating photo books All meetings are held at the Lake Center and begin at 1:00 p.m.

BE SURE TO GET YOUR TICKETS!! In addition to John’s award winning chili, our Sunshine Club provided lasagna, salad, garlic bread and dessert. The full-card bingo game resulted in a winner for every table. The bean bag toss got intense, but at the end of the day, Nadine was the women’s winner and Jim won for the men. Then Jim beat Nadine to become the grand prize winner. Kudos to the Sunshine Club for a great event. Shown below is a sampling of photos from this event.

Canyon Updates… COLDWATER CANYON Challenges Not one of us faces this life without a few challenges notched on to the side of our belts. It is what many consider to be the threads we sew together to create strength in our character, our minds and our souls. Moving to Trilogy with all its beauty, resources and friendships, we found many of our new friends sharing some of those character challenges with us as we became bonded in ways of lasting memories. Of such is the challenge to a local high school student Jordan Walker, his parents, family and girlfriend. A Friday night local high school all CIF football game, with many parents, grandparents, kids in frenetic spirit, cheering on their favorite team. The stakes were high, the game meant everything to families, friends, and especially the kids on the field and then, a freak accident. A star football Santiago High School Varsity team member, 16 year old is seriously injured. The crowd is silent, the injured players’ parents in the stands, in shock, his grandmother, Janice Walker, and Trilogy residents at home watching it on TV. That was in November of 2013. Much has been written of the strength of the Walker family, the hearts that openly supported the many community sponsored fund raisers for this family as they faced the mounting monetary demands placed upon them, what the future held for the health of their son. Direction became blurred in emotion as they journeyed through the slow but steady process of healing. Their faith, however always synchronized in restoring the positive where the negative sat waiting. Therapy guidance is on going, and Jordan is spirited fighter, a most optimistic young man, whose total focus is strengthening muscle use of his neck and shoulders to help in keeping him from toppling over when sitting as he goes about completing his high school education. Nervous at first about returning, until he saw groups of his friends who gathered him in shared prayer infusing him with the needed energy of support and healing. He has resumed his senior classes at Santiago High School, and with the incredible support of his mom, dad, granny, cousins, friends and last but far from very least his always at his side long time girlfriend, Brooke. He plans on furthering his education after graduation in college studying engineering. Through it all, a great big smile is among one of the most lasting and enchanting impression you are aware of about this young man. That GREAT BIG SMILE greeted Trilogy residents on August 10th at the Pacific Crest Lodge as the Walker Family - Jordan with brother, Shayne; mom, Ali; girlfriend, Brooke; cousin, Kendall and grandmother, Janice, hosted a special pizza and salad gathering to say a special Thank You for all their support given. Dad, Curtis not pictured, but there. Janice, usually making it happen on the food chain of most of the Trilogy events, working behind the scenes where she is comfortable, expressed overwhelming gratitude for the prayers and support the Trilogy Family has shown her family and grandson. It is a great story, could have been a tragic one, but for the strength of a family who faced with what seemed an unsurmountable challenge, united their energies to meet it head on. Challenges happen to people, families, everyday somewhere, random, never planned, changes lives, sacrifices made, but always present opportunity to show the strength of character we each possess in time of need. God Speed to the Boy with the Great Smile.

Community Happenings… Birthdays for Charity On August 13, 2014, the "Birthdays for Charity" group met for the first time at the Lake Center for lunch. There were 81 guests, who enjoyed a delicious Mexican style meal and an amazing luscious-tasting cake donated by Saddleback Canyon resident, Stevan Ruzic. The Birthdays for Charity group was organized by Karen Gross, Patti Blyleven, and Sally Wieringa. The vision of this group is to help others, by using the money that you would spend on a birthday gift for a friend and donate that money to a charity instead. The first charity to be selected was the Wounded Warriors Project. We are happy to say that the Wounded Warriors Project will receive $1,500.00 from the generous donations made by our very own charitable TRILOGY residents. Our next meeting will be held on November 6, 2014 at 12:00 p.m., at the Pacific Crest Lodge. If you would like information about the group, you can contact Patti, Karen or Sally and they would be happy to discuss "Birthdays for Charity" with you. And, on a personal note, Karen, Patti and Sally would like to thank everyone who helped make the first meeting such a success. Your generosity is truly appreciated.
