November is here—a month for reflection and preparation. This year, November begins on a Saturday. As we fall into bed that night, we also set our clocks back one hour, giving us the gift of extra time: to rest, to read, or to enjoy a sunrise on Sunday morning.
celebrations: Veterans Day and Thanksgiving.
Veterans Day, observed on November 11, honors all who have served in our nation's armed forces—men and women who dedicated themselves to duty, often spending long periods away from home in defense of our freedoms. Its origins trace back to Armistice Day, commemorating the end of World War I, and it was renamed Veterans Day in 1954. For their service and sacrifice, we remain deeply grateful.
Thanksgiving has its own unique story in North America. Its roots lie in English harvest traditions, with early observances recorded as far back as 1619. The more familiar Pilgrim gathering of 1621 and Puritan observance of 1631 are also part of its history. George Washington proclaimed the first National Thanksgiving in 1789; Abraham Lincoln established it as an annual holiday in 1863; and in 1941 President Franklin D. Roosevelt and Congress set the 4th Thursday of November as the official date.
Today, Thanksgiving is a time of parades—like the famous Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade—gatherings of family and friends, shared meals, and football on TV The following days bring several traditions of their own: Black Friday, the official start of the holiday shopping season; Small Business Saturday, supporting local shops; and the lesser-known Day of Listening, a reminder to give our full attention to others and truly hear what they are saying.
November also encourages us to practice kindness and tolerance. November 13 is World Kindness Day, and November 16 is the International Day of Tolerance. Here in Sun City Aliante, listening closely, practicing patience, and showing kindness are all ways we can continue building a community we are proud to call home.

Many events occur every November, not just Thanksgiving and Veteran's Day!
First, give thanks for the courage almost 250 years ago, of the leaders of the 13 colonies that signed the Declaration of Independence, and in 1789 became the United States of America. We all have a lot to be grateful for since. Jot down what you and yours are grateful or thankful for, and share it. Extend your gratitude to every day of the year. Share your thanks with your family, friends and neighbors, the community, and even strangers, not just pilgrims.
Veterans Day celebrates and recognizes the sacrifices, and dedication, to honor of all those who served, or serve now, draft or volunteer, in our armed forces. I'm proud of my: dad (Korea), an uncle (Vietnam), and a grandfather (WW2 RIP). Ask ones you know, or meet at events, if they would share their stories, and thank them, even if they don't share.
In addition to these two big days, around our community and across the country, a huge variety of interesting things happen in November, not just turkey sandwiches and Black Friday! We can all be healthier, and live more fully, with not much effort. Here are a few you might consider:

Great American Smokeout, 20 November. The American Cancer Society's one-day event challenges smokers to stop using tobacco; still the single largest preventable cause of death and disease in the U.S. Quitting can significantly reduce your risk of cancers, heart disease, and stroke. If you smoke, consider quitting, or cutting back to live a healthier life. https://www.cancer.org/cancer/riskprevention/tobacco/great-american-smokeout.html
American Diabetes Month, to raise awareness, educate people on effects and symptoms, and raise money for research. A serious, and increasingly common disease, diabetes is one of the leading causes of disability and death in the United States. Millions of people have, or are at risk of, diabetes, with millions of new cases annually. Please consider your diet and exercise, both fundamental for managing and preventing diabetes by helping control blood sugar, improving insulin sensitivity, and managing weight. https://diabetes.org/newsroom/pressreleases/american-diabetes-month-we-fight-you
Alzheimer's Awareness Month, to raise awareness of early-onset warning signs, supporting those who suffer from the disease and their families, and money for research. The disease, a progressive brain disorder not a normal part of aging, affects millions, with millions of new diagnoses annually. https://alzfdn.org/alzawarenessmonth/
National Recycling Day, 15 November, Be prudent about what you buy. Do I really need it, how long will I use it? Learn how to better recycle, which recycled products to buy, and how to reduce waste. https://kab.org/our-signature-programs/america-recycles-day/ What can we recycle? Not as much as you might think: https://www.republicservices.com/cms/documents/municipality/Neva da/Residential-Recyclables-List-English.pdf
National Take a Hike Day, 17 November (Perhaps not the best Event Day name.) WALK, enjoy nature, improve your health! Our Fall weather is beautiful. Get out and explore the many new, nearby trails.
The American Hiking Society highlights the day by partnering with animal rescues to get adoptable dogs out for walks.

It's been a long road, but we made it — the pool renovation is officially complete, and the pool reopened on Friday, October 17!
While we hit a few bumps along the way, I'm happy to say we stayed on schedule. If you r e m e m b e r , w e o r i g i n a l l y e s t i m a t e d reopening between late September and midOctober — and we landed right within that window
Yes, the closure was a bit longer than usual, but there was a lot happening behind the scenes. We were juggling multiple projects and coordinating with several vendors to make it all come together.
A huge thank you goes to our Facilities Manager, Juan Macias, and his amazing team. They handled everything from the pool deck and sauna repaint, to the sauna interior rebuild, shower tile repairs, shower surround deep cleaning, pool furniture assembly, and a final complete deep cleaning of the entire pool area. Their hard work truly shows and saved the association on costs.
And of course, thank you to all of you — the homeowners — for your patience and understanding throughout the renovation. We couldn't have done it without your support.
Take a look below for a time line and photos that capture the project from start to finish. We hope you enjoy the refreshed space!
• Full ceiling & beam sanding & paint preparation
• Full ceiling, beam & flashing repaint
• Pool walls new color selected and full repaint
• Sauna heater replacement
• Sauna electric power reconfigured
• Sauna exteriors repaint (in house)
• Sauna interior reconfiguration & refresh (in house)
• Sauna floor replacement (in house)
• Frosted windows between fitness center & pool area
• Pool and Hot tub re-plastered (SNHD requested)
• Pool drains reconfigured to new code requirements (SNHD)
• New depth markers installed on the deck (SNHD)
• New indoor pool furniture purchased, built and placed (in house)
• Four new storage benches replacing worn out net storage containers
I invite you to check out our awesome new pool area and wish you a Happy Thanksgiving!

General Manager, Sun City Aliante
The first article in an Irregular Series by Mark Benz Sun City Aliante is at the center of significant new adjacent housing developments. They feature many amenities maintained by the City of North Las Vegas, that the public can use for free. When you're bored with walking in SCAL, explore the accessible walking/bike paths, and adjacent parks to our East. I combined these into a route called the "SCAL Four Park Loop" shown in this article. No dog is required for you to walk/bike the loop!
SCAL "Four Park Loop" Route: Start/end at any Park, or your house! Mostly flat. ~97% paved, NO major streets to cross. ~1 hour/~3 mi.
You can start most anywhere, at your house, or at a park You know 2 of them (labeled P1 and P2). The Four Park Loop route includes 2 new parks, on public trails in the new Heartland homes to our East (P3 and P4). Again, you don't need a dog to enjoy the loop walk. 'Though to me, the route looks more like a steak or a boot, than a loop…
All the way around the complete loop is about 3 miles. You can do the full loop yourself or with friends. Go just as far as you, or your pooch wants to, and return. It's about 1 mile each between 3 of the labeled Parks: P1 to P2, P2 to P4, and P4 up and around back to P1.
There are many benches, covered tables, trash cans, dog poop stations, trees, and play structures, etc. along the way to rest and enjoy. Don't forget to bring a full, reusable water bottle too.
As you can see from the blue-dashed line, if you walk or bike counterclockwise, the route is all left turns.
The Counter-clockwise Route: Head south out of SCAL on Widewing Dr. to Park 2. At Elkhorn, turn left. Keep making left turns along the sidewalks and trails, through the Heartland homes to our East, to Parks 3 and 4.
You have an option to visit P3 via Golden Buckwheat Dr and use the path out the back to P4, or continue northeast on Elkhorn, and turn left on Niles Wild Dr., to directly reach P4.
From P4, stroll northwest on the asphalt or concrete paths, and turn left again where they end at the sidewalk at Grand Teton. Here note the Tule Springs Fossil Beds' TUSK Kiosk sign. It will soon to be the gateway to 7 miles of ADA trails! Turn left again and walk west on the wide Grand Teton sidewalk, finally turning left at the bench to re-enter SCAL to P1. The whole route is quite flat, with about the same elevation change we have from Elkhorn to Ground Robin. The route is mostly either concrete sidewalk or asphalt-paved trail. The Association and the City plan to install a new sidewalk between Ground Robin and Grand Teton soon.
For variety, take the SCAL Four Park Loop clockwise. Then, it's all right turns and the reverse of the route described above.
The Extras:
If you want to, explore a bit farther northeast on Elkhorn. There is a BIG new public park at the corner of Elkhorn and Tule Springs Parkway, with lots of amenities. On the other (west) side of SCAL, a couple of blocks down Farm Road, you'll find two new parks, a regular one called Atlas Park, and a linear one that ends back at Elkhorn, called Orion's Belt. Enjoy!
I'll see you out there! ~Mark Benz
continued from page 6
Take YOUSELF and maybe your dog(s) out for a REAL adventure on the “SCAL Four Park Loop,” featuring beautiful mountain views, trees, and no cars much of the way. To do “The Loop”, walk past the Widewing at Elkhorn park, and keep turning left. Re-enter SCAL from Grand Teton. For details, please see the related Explore the Neighborhood: “SCAL Four Park Loop“ article in this Breeze!
On Veteran's Day, November 11 (observed) SCAL's own Veterans Club holds their Annual Spaghetti Dinner Saturday 8 November, from 4 pm in the Vista Room, with an Opportunity Table with nicely used items available. Tickets are $12 at the Community Center On the 11th, please join us for a Veterans Appreciation Event at the Comm
11
To
dentoni3@yahoo.com. The Veterans Auxiliary plans to make their annual lap blanket presentation to VA Hospital patients on the 11th or 18th. Auxiliary members also get together to address cards in appreciation to our SCAL veterans for Veterans Day.
Other Veterans Day events across the Valley include the biggest Parade west of the Mississippi in Downtown Las Vegas from 10-noon on the 11th. Following the parade, the Nevada Department of Veterans Services (NDVS) hosts a Veterans Day ceremony at the Nevada State Veterans Memorial in Las Vegas at the Southern Nevada Veterans Memorial Cemetery. Nationally, the VFW is honoring Veterans with 2 minutes of silence in remembrance at 11:11am here. https://heroes.vfw.org/page/175842/data/1?ea.tracking.id=2025Vets DayEngageMEM2&ea.url.id=8590633
Thank you all. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving, and Veterans Day, however you choose to celebrate.

Debbie Kent Lifestyle Director
Hello, Sun City Aliante Residents,
While we may not see the leaves changing like other parts of the country, fall in Las Vegas still
evenings make it the perfect time to enjoy the outdoors, connect with neighbors, and start preparing for the upcoming holiday season. It's a wonderful time of year to celebrate community, friendship, and the traditions that make our neighborhood special.
With the holidays quickly approaching, many of us are excited to bring festive cheer to our homes. From sparkling lights to colorful wreaths and holi
throughout Sun City Aliante. To ensure the community remains beautiful and enjoyable for everyone, please remember to follow the Holiday Decorating Guidelines listed below
Holiday Decorating Guidelines
• Respect Your Neighbors' Peaceful Enjoyment
Decorations should not shine directly into adjacent homes or create excessive noise. The goal is to share holiday joy without disturbing others' comfort.
• Timing is Everything
For winter holidays celebrated in December, decorations may go up as early as November 15. For all other publicly observed holidays during the year, decorations may be displayed up to two weeks before the holiday.
• Taking Decorations Down
All holiday decorations and lights should be removed within 30 days after the holiday has ended.
These guidelines are not meant to limit creativity, but rather to keep the community festive, welcoming, and respectful for everyone. They help preserve the overall beauty of Sun City Aliante while allowing each homeowner to show their holiday spirit.
As we move into the holiday season, let's celebrate with kindness, consideration, and community pride. If you have any questions about the g u i d e
suncityaliante@fsrnevada.com.
On behalf of the Association, we wish you a wonderful fall season and a joyful holiday ahead. May your celebrations be festive, your decorations bright, and your home filled with warmth and cheer
Happy Fall and Happy Holidays!
Best regards,
Daniel Massella Assistant General Manager

THE SEASON OF GRATITUDE ~ During the holiday season, especially, I feel thankful and grateful for my many blessings… family, friends, career and more. Gratitude is a vital part of the Buddhist philosophy; but in the West, we have to rediscover its enormous power It suggests that having an attitude of gratitude will change your life and bring you more happiness, satisfaction, better health and greater resiliency It sounds good to me!
Speaking of Gratitude… My heartfelt thanks to the Smith's Pharmacist Lisa Hammel for setting up an Immunization Clinic in the Community Center on September 19 and a Mobile Shot Clinic in the Parking Lot on October 13. This marks six ye
immunizations directly to us.

Be informed before your make important Medicare decisions for 2026.

This month we will celebrate Thanksgiving with a delicious holiday meal (my favorite). If you are health conscious, go for the protein first. Eat plenty of turkey! It's not only good for you; it helps suppress your appetite. Of course, you'll want to save some calories for stuffing, gravy, sweet potatoes and delicious desserts.
If you have any questions about The Breeze or eBlast, please reach out to me at 702-429-1623 or email twilliamson@suncityaliante.us. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!
Trish Williamson Editor, The Breeze
I hope everyone is doing well. First, I want to hope that you all had a pleasant summer as we approach cooler temperatures. We have been pretty busy in Ward 4, as w e l l a s a r o u n d t h e c i t y, m a k i n g c h a
accommodate the needs of our current residents and those moving here daily
I want to recap a few things I have been involved in since the last Breeze article. One highlight was our amazing Paws in the Park event on October 25. The theme this year was Halloween, with parents and their dogs dressing alike for prizes in multiple contests. The event was held at our Nature Discovery Park with help from many sponsors in our business community I must personally thank Christy Stevens of Hearts Alive Village, a nonprofit animal clinic located on Decatur at Cheyenne, for once again taking the time to microchip over 125 dogs to ensure they can be returned to their owners if lost.
We have also signed a new one-year contract renewal with the Animal Foundation in Las Vegas to work with our city in providing proper care for animals brought to their facility by residents and our animal protection officers. As a proactive animal advocate, I have requested that they report to the City Council in open session quarterly to answer questions and share how they are improving the adoption process and the treatment of all animals in their care.
I would also like to thank all our volunteers, especially those from Sun City, who helped make our 11th annual event honoring military veterans and first responders on October 4 another success. Thank you to everyone who participated.
Additionally, I had the privilege of be
Commander Program and have been assigned to the 99th Wing. I will be working with Lieutenant Colonel Cooper on issues related to housing and growth encroachment at Nellis Air Force Base. My role in the public works sector of the 99th Wing will give us opportunities to partner on initiatives that benefit the airmen, many of whom live here in Ward 4 and North Las Vegas. It is an honor to be selected for this position.
We are also exploring the area east of Losee, working with the Bureau of Land Management to acquire additional land near the VA. This will allow us to provide more services in North Las Vegas, including much-needed affordable housing, medical services, additional trails and parks, and more restaurants, shopping, and grocery options. There is no reason residents should have to travel to other parts of the valley for essential services.
I am also aware of traffic concerns and accidents at various locations around Ward 4. I am working with different departments, including our police, to address these issues and make the area safer for all residents, especially senior citizens.
Lastly, I want to specifically address the repaving of streets in your community I received many calls regarding what residents felt was an inferior coating. I requested that both the contractor and our city inspectors review the quality of the work. It was explained that this heavy coating is designed to last longer than a spray coating. It will take some time to smooth out as it is used, and any gravel or debris left on the road will be swept up. I want to assure you that the work done in Sun City is quality work, and both the city and contractors stand behind it. You can always email me with any questions on any issue, and I will make sure either I or the proper department respond in a timely manner.
Have a very safe and happy Thanksgiving. Please participate in honoring Veterans Day on November 11. And for our Marine veterans, a special birthday wish, as November 10 is the official birthday of the Marine Corps.
Yours in service, Councilman Richard Cherchio

On March 17, 2003, I moved into my new home in Sun City Aliante. There were only four homes built at that time, and there were no amenities such as the Community Center or Aliante Golf Course. In fact, Aliante Parkway was then called Simmons St.
It's been fun watching the community grow and change over all these years. I moved in with two dogs, Casper, a white shepherd, and Cosmo, a golden retriever My mother trained guide dogs for the blind, and Cosmo was not suited to be a guide dog ; so, we kept him. He loved balls. When he saw his first golf ball, he wanted to chase it, but I didn't think the golfers would appreciate that.
I met new neighbors because of our dogs. Mark and Gerri Smith had two dogs that were beautiful greyhounds. When Casper dug a hole under the fence went exploring, he visited the new neighbors whose garage door was open. He walked into their house as if he lived there. That's how I met Linda and Owen.
Alan and Ginnie Kahare, who lived across the street, had a small dog named Cooper That's how I met many of my neighbors who for the most part still live in this community. Both my dogs, Casper and Cosmo, have passed away They lived to be 13 and 14.
Next I had Hercules, a Rhodesian Ridgeback – a great dog I didn't think I would ever get another dog when he passed away unexpectedly from heart problems. Now I have Midnight, a part border collie and part black lab. She is a rescue dog and quite smart – very friendly, but she has a big bark. She is 12 years old and we walk every day. That's her favorite part of the day other than naps. I have always had dogs in my life because they are great company
My most recent new neighbors, Robert and Debi, have a sweet little guy named Jackson.
When my cousin died, I promised her I would take her dog, Layla. But unfortunately Midnight didn't want to share her “Mommy.” However, I found a great home for her in this community with Mary and Stan, and they love her I was very lucky to get a great home for her because she wasn't a young dog. But she's a good girl!
Midnight has a boyfriend, or at least in her mind, a sweet dog, Sam, who belongs to another great couple, Phil and Patty, who live in this community ~ Cindy Carpenter

online. There will be many different delivery trucks in the community such as Amazon, UPS, FedEx, USPS and even some unmarked vehicles contracted to make deliveries.
The street smart criminal, commonly called a porch pirate, is watching and waiting for that truck. The porch pirate does their Christmas shopping on your front porch. How do we stop it? Porch pirates never seem to be caught and our stolen packages are never returned so we need to be vigilant. If you have ordered a package, try to be home waiting for it to be delivered. Watch from your front window or listen for the delivery person to hopefully ring your bell. If you can't be home, ask a neighbor to watch for your package.
During the holidays, friends or family may come to stay for a visit. Your guest will park in your driveway or on the street. Most street smart thieves will look in the vehicle to see if anything is in plain sight, such as a package. The thief will first try the door to see if it's unlocked or just break a window, reach in, and grab anything they can. What can you do about it? Never leave anything in plain sight, take packages, clothes, glasses and even a garage door “clicker” into the house or put it in the trunk or covered storage area. Make sure the car is locked, and if it has an alarm, be sure to use it.
These crime questions can be answered by your Neighborhood Watch Block Captains. If you don't know who your block captain is or would like information regarding the Sun City Aliante Neighborhood Watch program, contact our Coordinator, Jim Blossey at jimandpatb@embarqmail.com or 775-530-5119. All residents are invited to attend our monthly Neighborhood Watch meetings. The next meeting will be held November 20, 2025 at 4:30 p.m. in the Social Hall.
Be safe: if you see something, say something! Your Neighborhood Watch Block Captains
neighborhood look beautiful, but when piles of rocks, soil, or mulch are left on streets for days, they become more than just an eyesore—they create real safety
swerve into oncoming traffic, and reduce visibility at intersections. At night or in poor weather, these piles are especially hard to see and can cause accidents or property damage. Neighborhood Patrol has a Policy and a procedure when encountering this type of safety hazard ~ UNMARKED PILES OF LANDSCAPING MATERIAL IN THE ROADWAY
The owner of the residence or their contractor has the primary responsibility to ensure that piles of dirt/gravel/rock/etc. on the street are marked with cones. If Patrol comes across piles in the street that do not have cones and it is daytime, we try to contact the resident or contractor at the scene and ask them to place cones, especially if the pile is not to be cleared by dark. We also notify the Customer Service Coordinator If no one can be contacted, Patrol will leave cones to help prevent an accident and complete an ongoing event report; so, residents can be contacted by the Community Center Customer Service Office, and the cones returned.
Pedestrians are also at risk. Walkers, bike riders and people with disabilities may be forced into the roadway to get around the piles, putting them in danger from passing vehicles. In addition, loose materials can wash into storm drains during rain, clogging the system and causing localized flooding. This runoff can also carry debris into waterways, harming the environment.
At a recent meeting with GardaWorld Leadership it was agreed that the security guards will also place cones when encountering unmarked piles of landscaping materials.
landscaping materials are placed safely, marked properly and promptly moved to the worksite. Temporary safety cones or reflective barriers can help alert drivers until the materials are cleared. What seems like a
hazard—responsible handling keeps everyone safe and the community looking its best.

The Advertisers' Meet and Greet was October 30. If you made it to the event, you got to meet a large number of The Breeze advertisers. Maybe you were able to take advantage of any specials being offered, and even possibly, you wo
offered. If you didn't make it to the event, why not?
The Advertisers' Meet and Greet happens twice a year It's your chance to put a face to that plumbing ad you saw, or a contact name to that financial advisor, or even get a chance to look at or try the latest product from that medical supply vendor. You get a raffle ticket when you check in. That ticket enters you into raffles of items donated by the vendors, including gift cards for restaurants and other businesses. These raffles take place throughout the Meet and Greet.
These are not just advertisers. These are established companies, who have been associated with The Breeze magazine and the Sun City Aliante community for a long time, some even from the beginning. They know how the homes have been built, and can diagnose any problems accurately and quickly They know the people, having worked with many of them over the years, and get a lot of work in the community through referrals. They do quality work at reasonable prices. They also host presentations for the Lunch and Learns and the Snack and Learns, with information to enlighten us, help us, and entertain us. These events happen all month long. You can get more information on upcoming events through the weekly eBlasts (that go out to 75% of the households in Sun City Aliante). Not getting the eBlasts? Stop by the Front Desk at the Community Center to fill out a green card to get your name added to the list.
If you missed this Meet and Greet… How do you find out about what companies are available to you? The answer can be found on the Sun C i t y A l i a n t
Magazines, then select Breeze Advertisers. You'll see a list of all the advertisers in The Breeze, along with a link to their individual websites. You don't have to scroll through the entire list to find what you're looking for. There are links to take you to Home Services, Personal Services, and more.
The advertisers in The Breeze have strong ties to the Sun City Aliante c o m m u n i t y Ta k e

energy usage, and excess energy goes back to the “Grid” and gets credited to your account at 75% of the retail price.
Get a smaller bill with Net MeteringWith net metering, NV Energy credits your power bill for the excess energy produced. What you send back wipes out what you use at 100% - a 1-for-1 ratio.

By Gary Schall
They say that “60 is the new 40.” That doesn't mean there is some secret elixir that reverses aging. It refers to the fact that we are living longer Along with that comes the realization that, previously, you would talk about 60 and retirement in the same breath. Today, that talk may be about 60 and your next shift at work. Therein lies the reason for this column.
The job market today is far removed from when we first started looking for work. Back then, you'd grab the newspaper, flip through the classifieds, send in an application, get an interview the following week, and know within a week or so if you got the job. Today, you apply to a job posted online, and hope you'll hear something to let you know if someone even got it. Today's hiring process may sometimes take six months or more.
My goal, if you're actively seeking, or considering looking, is to help you navigate today's job search maze. Future articles will cover topics like resumes, LinkedIn, and networking. Today I'm focusing on your current network. Your network is not just those within your field, or those you've worked with. Your network consists of anyone you come into contact with on a regular basis. Popular TV host Joel Osteen refers to these people as “gatekeepers.”
Gatekeepers are those who can help you get your foot in the door This used to mean someone in HR, or maybe even the receptionist at the front desk. Today, it could be anyone. In my network alone, I've had connections who met their gatekeepers while walking their dog, talking with someone in line at the store, and even someone who got to a hiring manager through someone in the chair next to them at the hairdresser's. Remember, anyone could be the key to your next position. Have your elevator speech ready to go, and make sure it's 30 seconds or less.
Here's the hard part, though. In order for this to work for you, you'll need to take stock on how you treat random people you meet. Start by always being pleasant, no matter what your circumstances. If you're waiting for your car to be serviced, and it's taking longer than you'd like, stay pleasant in the waiting room. You never know what position the other people in that same room might have, or who might also be waiting for their vehicle. When I worked for a software company years ago, I traveled a lot and went to many trade shows. My boss made it crystal clear; ”When you walk out that door to go on-site, you are officially working.” Treat everyone like you would like to be treated, and you just might be surprised at what they have to offer

"We need to take care of children because they are our future.”
Born and raised in Seattle, Washington, Mike Condon landed his first job at F W Woolworths at age 14 and soon started rising up the corporate ladder. Later, he joined Burger King and became District
Starbucks as a Store Manager and then a M
trained new managers, including those from international locations, such as
customs. He also ran the Bumper Street Events Festival for five years which featured iconic concert artists.
In 2009, after 31 years in the corporate world, Mike opened his own coffee shop in Sea Tac, Washington, called Mike's Community Cup. "This was during the worst financial recessions, but I was determined to make a difference in the community," reflected Mike.
"We opened the coffee shop with a pledge to the community of donating 10 cents from each cup sold to help the community We soon found out that it would not be enough to support the community needs," Mike continued. "During the first month we were open, there was a major apartment complex fire, and we donated blankets and pillows to help those affected. Then I met a candidate for City Council, Pam Fernald,. who helped me understand the many needs of the community.”
Mike met with community leaders ~ local school principals, PTA boards, athletic directors, coaches and teachers ~ to learn their needs. He wanted to explore ways to generate more funds to help the community "I had a large sports memorabilia collection; so, we set up drawings and gave customers a chance to win prizes for their donations to our drives," Mike noted.
Over the 10 years his coffee shop was open, Mike was able to donate over 750,000 school supplies to the community, raise funds to help send a DECA high school team to Orlando, and send a high school b a n d t o Wa s h i n g t o n , D . C . f o r P re s i d e n t O b a m a ' s s e c o n d inauguration.
What inspired Mike? "I wanted to take care of kids. They are our future. Also, I don't think a lot of people understand that you can make a real difference in a community if you try. I have learned if you put people before profit, the profit will come," he said.
In addition, each year he would supply Thanksgiving dinners to local families in need, donate 100 toys at Christmas to Children's Hospital, help coach DECA students, judge poetry competitions, and assist with career days. At the start of the school year, his team would take coffee, pastries, and other breakfast treats to local schools for the teachers and staff.
When an athletic director came to me and said they needed to replace the weight room floor at the school as it was dangerous for the students, we replaced the floor. When a high school coach came
to me about wanting to restart the baseball program, I worked with purveyors to get deep discounts to get equipment to revive the program. When the cross-country coach came to me to let me know he had some great runners but they did not have proper shoes, I spoke with my nephew who was a marathon runner, and he said most runners only used their shoes for one race. He was able to talk to other runners and supply shoes for the team.
It's no surprise that Mike was named Community Member of the Year by the Highline School District, and also named as National Small Business of the Year by Independent We Stand, beating out 350 businesses nationwide, and named as one of King 5 news station's top 10 coffee shops in the Best Western Washington for 5 years straight.
On another occasion, the community came to him with concerns about City Council members who were not working for the interests of t h e c o m m u n i t y. H
community leaders to create a PAC to find six different community members to run in the next election. Their efforts resulted in new transparent City Council that was open and honest.
Mike sold his coffee shop in 2019, tried to retire but could not do it. He went back to work at Seattle University running all the coffee shops on campus. He finally retired in 2023 and moved to Las Vegas. After looking at several HOAs, he decided on Sun City Aliante. In his free time, he works out every day and remains committed to children and his community serving as a Crossing Guard for local schools mornings and afternoons. He is passionate about baseball, football and anything that's sports related.

Twenty-one years ago, the Forget-MeKnots were a group of knitters and crocheters who got together and wanted to find a way we could give back to our community
We chose Foster Children of Clark County and the Homeless of Las Vegas as our charities. Our club has changed as we now have more than twice as many members. We have added Cross Stitch, Needle Point and many other forms of needle work. Along with that we have jewelry making and are up for any other craft that you might bring to the club.
We just gave seven large bags to Foster Children of Clark County There were Baby Blankets, Baby Sweaters, Baby Hats, Ponchos, Sweaters, Teen Hats, Lap Blankets, and other miscellaneous items. They can use anything we give them since the children's ages run from newborn to eighteen years old.
Come and join us. You can either bring your own project or come to learn how to do one of our crafts. We have patterns, hooks, needles, and yarn to get you started, as well as people willing to teach you. The Forget-Me-Knots meet every Monday in the Community Center from 1 to 4 p.m. in the Social Hall. If you have any questions you can get in touch with Collette Stickney at 702-373-2163 and acollette19@yahoo.com or Mady Shapiro at 702399- 5347 and shapiromr@yahoo.com.

International Stand Up to Bullying Day, November 18, is a powerful reminder that silence enables cruelty, and speaking out can spark change. Observed in schools, workplaces, and communities around the world, this day encourages individuals to take a visible stand against bullying in all its forms—whether physical, verbal, social, or cyber
Bullying thrives on fear, isolation, and indifference. Victims often suffer in silence, feeling powerless and alone. International Stand Up to Bullying Day challenges that narrative by promoting solidarity, empathy, and action. Participants often wear pink shirts as a symbol of support, inspired by a Canadian student-led protest where classmates rallied behind a boy bullied for wearing pink.
The day is not just about awareness ~ it's about empowerment. It urges bystanders to become upstanders, equipping them with the courage to intervene, report, and support. It also fosters open conversations about mental health, respect, and inclusion, creating safer environments where everyone feels valued.
Educators and leaders use this day to reinforce anti-bullying policies and teach conflict resolution, kindness, and digital citizenship. Students share stories, create art, and pledge to be allies. Online campaigns amplify voices and spread messages of hope.
Ultimately, International Stand Up to Bullying Day is a celebration of humanity's better instincts—the willingness to protect, uplift, and unite. It reminds us that even small acts of courage can dismantle cycles of harm and build cultures of compassion. When we stand together, bullying loses its power And that's a victory worth wearing pink for
