Picture Sunland Village East as it was in 1986.
Not been here for 25 years? Well, Marge and Gordon
Gerharter were here then and they can recall many
colorful stories about those years so long ago when
they moved to the house on Kiowa in April of that
year.
Owen and Lenora Schulz were their only
neighbors in their first days. Lenora is still living in
the village and they are neighbors in Garden Condo
III.
After the first residents arrived, the village started
to grow first with tennis courts and a 9- hole golf
course, then later the auditorium.
For the golf course pro shop a travel trailer was
used until a windstorm blew it over into the golf
course. Ray Daniels was the first president of the
fledgling club, followed by Ken Getman, who says
the Gerharters used to give some really nice parties.
The club started out with 2 foursomes and allowed
golfers from outside the village to come in for
league play.
Gordon said that in those days, Guadalupe was just
an unpaved trail, and Baseline ended at Ellsworth.
As there was no staff to maintain the grounds, sheep
were brought in to control the weeds! Coyotes and
fox were a common sight roaming the streets.
Gordon is a young looking 90 years old and
Marge is a spry 88. He says that now he can start
to brag out his age. The two were both born and
raised in Aberdeen S.D. where they farmed and
raised cattle. They also raised three children.
Dave, the youngest, lives in Nebraska and has three
boys, Lonnie is in Wyoming with two boys, and
Judy lives in Kansas City and has one boy and one
girl. There are seven grandchildren with only one
girl! Seems like females are hard to come by in the
Gerharter family.
Growing up in the depression years, Gordon
remembers that in the financial crash of 1929 he
lost $68.00 in the bank owned by his grandfather.
He laughs when he says that he did receive a check
for $0.75 in interest.
The Gerharters are not as active in their church as
they used to be, but Marge still makes lap blankets
for the veteran’s hospital. Spending an afternoon
with this couple and going back to the early days of
SVE was both interesting and entertaining.
MAY DAY TRADITIONS
Judy Janousek
Some of us may have memories
of placing a basket filled with
flowers on the door of a neighbor
or special friend, then laughing
as we ran away so we wouldn’t
be found out. This tradition,
going back hundreds of years,
was popular among children and
meant to demonstrate the joy of
gift giving. The history of May
Day dates back to pre-Christian
Europe as a tribute to Flora, the
Roman Goddess of flowers. The
first day of May was once referred
to as “bringing in the May”.
A popular European custom,
dating to the middle ages and
celebrated on May 1 is the maypole
dance. It comes from the Druids
of the British Isles. The tree used
was typically 12 to 60 feet tall with
ribbons attached at the top. The
dance around the pole evolved
over the years to involve intricate
patterns as the dancers wove
ribbons in and around as they
danced about the pole. If you have
traveled in Europe, you may have
seen maypoles that are left standing
in the town square in preparation
for the yearly celebration.
In more recent years, May 1
has become synonymous in some
countries as a day of political
demonstrations organized by
unions, communists, anarchists
and socialist groups. How much
nicer this world would be if we
all went back to celebrating the
day with gift giving, dancing and
the joy of spring.

Hearing Loss
Got You Confused?
Why do I hear in quiet but don’t always understand in noise? I’ve been told my high frequencies are gone—is there
anything that will help? What is that ringing in my head? Will open, closed or custom fit hearing instruments work
best for me? I have a dead ear—can sound be transferred to the good ear? Can a wireless device help me hear better
in certain situations? Am I a candidate for an invisible hearing device?
You have questions, we have Solutions!

BITS & PIECES
Charlie Walker
Holidays for this month: May
Day on the 1st, and Cinco de
Mayo on the 5th are well
known holidays. Of
historical interest is
V-E Day on the 8th.
This commemorates
the end of fighting
in Europe during WWII. T h e
German Army ceased fighting on May
2nd and formally surrendered on May
7th.
May 11th is Eat What You Want
Day. Since when do you have to have
a special day to eat what you want?
Finally, on the 12th is Limerick Day.
Looked up several limericks to include,
but found most were not the kind that
could be printed here.
The earliest known board game
was used around 3,000 B.C. It was the
ancestor of backgammon.
The giant squid has eyes as big
as pie plates, the largest on earth. On
earth?
Takes up to two
million flowers to make one
pound of honey. And what
about the work the bees do?
That should be considered I
would think.
Ugh for this month
– 60% of all mammals on
the earth are rodents. Double
ugh.
In 1647, New York became
the first city in America with a
paved street.
In 1986 the Pentagon made
almost $85 million worth of
phone calls. Wonder what the
cost is now. Maybe people in the
pentagon should be educated in the
wonderful world of e-mails. Or
how to say bye now!
In 1867, Napoleon III commanded
chemists to produce a special kind of
food for the army and navy. It was
margarine.
Sarsaparilla is the root that flavors
root beer.
The Muppet Show was banned
from TV in Saudi Arabia because one
of its stars was Miss Piggy. Pigs are
forbidden to Muslims.
Mothers Day falls on
the 8th this year, a day
we should remember to
say thanks to a special
lady. Have you ever
told her how much you
remember all the band-aides
she put on scraped knees, the
favorite birthday cakes she
never forgot, the nights she
soothed away our fears and
heart aches? If you haven’t,
then now is that time.
GOLF CONDO II
Wanda Katzman
Today it is the 10th of April as I write this and, for the
benefit of those residents already away for the summer, it
is 70 degrees and beautiful sunshine here. We miss you
already. Some good rain fell here yesterday and the golf
course is already more green today. Safe travels to all of you
still traveling.
We hope you return for the next season party schedule which
the “fun” social committee has planned for us. Welcome Back
Party Nov. 15, Christmas Party December 12, Valentine’s
Party February 07 and chicken dinner March 22.
It is sad to report some recent deaths on our street. Joanne
Dietz, formerly in 159, passed away in Wyoming after a
long illness. Shirley Fergus in #268 died this last week after
a extended illness. Our street grieves for them and their
families.
LIBRARY NEWS
Loretta Wellman
Our summer volunteer meeting was held early in April with
12 volunteers attending. We still could use some extra help in
the summer months, so please call me or one of the committee
members for scheduling. As many of you leave for the
summer, don’t forget us for donations or return of books. Even
though we have had some great books donated, we appreciate
any dropped off to add to our wonderful library. From all our
volunteers as well as our Village readers, thanks a lot.
“Paper Money”, by Adam Smith, is an interesting book I
found in our Non-Fiction section. Written in 1981, it provides
many fascinating insights into the causes and effects of prior
economic upheavals. The book tells stories of the 1980’s
inflation when Treasury Bills paid 15% and of hyperinflation
at its peak in 1923 when the exchange rate between the
dollar and the German mark was one trillion marks to one
dollar. A sign of inflation to come may be the announcement
by Wal-Mart of price increases coming this summer due to
high gasoline prices and supplier’s increases. This could
spread to other retailers. They say history repeats itself in a
slightly different way, but hopefully we won’t ever have to
experience hyperinflation. If you like history and stories of
financial surprises, you would enjoy this book.
th
We did have a happy event though the 7 of April. All three
golf condo II phases had their block watch with music, food and
dancing right out in mid street! Terri Teten came from the police
department and gave us an interesting and informative talk on ID
theft. Mike and Steve, once again, gave us an evening of music
and entertainment. They had the residents up and swaying to
the music and even line dancing. The block watch captains and
helpers all worked together, Gwen, Debbie, Cheryl, Jan, Wanda
and Mike even promised to do it again next season. We counted
approx. 130 residents joining in the fun for the evening.
Welcome to some of our new residents. Bradley and Carol
in #164, Bob & Colleen in #145, Larry & Thelma in #159
and Jeff & Aileen in 163. I am sure I might have missed
some of you and I am sorry for that. I would appreciate your
calling me if I did. 980-1061. You are all most welcome to
our happy street!
Pancake Breakfast
Ed Malone
Our final pancake breakfast of the season was another
success. We served 639 paid guests for a profit of $1,555.93.
For the 2010/2011 season we contributed $7,300.00 to the
SVE General Fund. Thank you all for your participation and
all of our wonderful volunteers.
In summary of this past season we served approximately
3,661 people, made 9,120 pancakes, 8,415 sausages and
scrabbled 8,240 eggs and 2,453 6 oz glasses of orange
juice. We used 57 gallons of syrup, 8,000 pads of
margarine and over 8,100 cups of coffee.
On April 6th, we had a pizza party for all of our
volunteers and had a chance to
visit rather then working. A
good time was had by all.
Looking forward to next
year.

THE PRESIDENT’S
DESK
Charlie Walker
Your HOA board spent a busy month in April getting a
lot of “housekeeping” chores done. The security contract
was awarded to a different company as it was substantially
cheaper for the same service. Replacing the asphalt in the
parking lot from the auditorium/office area, past the pool
and including the west parking by the mailbox has also been
contracted. These two jobs were discussed at the Board
meeting April 14th.
The board has also appointed four new committees to
research the feasibility of building a new south complex
exercise/weight/aerobics building, creating four new
pickleball courts, installing two wide screens on the
auditorium walls and having a Dog Park. No approvals will
be made on any of these projects until the committees have
completed and reported the data from their research.
Your board will put in a lot of work and research before
we undertake any large expenditure. With the economic
situation as it is, we must take into consideration the impact
of any project upon our village finances before a decision is
made.
ARCHITECTURAL
HIGHLIGHT
Thinking of painting? Preauthorization must be obtained
from the HOA office prior to repainting regardless of same
or a change of color selected. The color selections for
all exterior repainting of residential units and additions
shall be chosen from Board approved body only and trim
only color lists. Proper selection and use of the two colors
should ensure visual compatibility within the community.
Trim color may not be used as a body color. RCC&R
4.1.15
For driveways, walks and patios, the design pattern
and color must be compatible with the residence and the
general community décor. The color and design selection
shall be chosen from the BOD approved list available in
the HOA office and also requires preauthorization.
SECURITY KORNER
James Mayberry
We continue to have garage doors being left open, but the
numbers are slowly decreasing ( thank you ).
On several evenings security has found the Tennis Court
Room to be left unlocked. Please keep this room locked
when not in use. We have also found the outside door to the
restaurant water heater left unlocked. This should be kept
locked.
People have been seen riding their bicycles on the golf
course at night. Damage could be done if great care is not
taken.
There are many scam artists trying to take advantage of
the terrible time the Japanese people are having looking for
donations to nonexistent relief organizations.

BOOK CLUB NEWS
Barb Mack
The book club meets on the first Tuesday of each month,
(April 5th last month), at 10 am in the Saguaro Room. The
selection for April was The Zoo Keeper’s Wife by Diane
Ackerman. This story is a non-fiction narrative of World
War II in Poland and of the horrors and courage of the
people living there.
The zookeeper and his wife, Jan, and
Antonina Zabinski are bombed in their
zoo in Warsaw. In that wrecked animal
haven, they are able to rescue, save and
relocate more than 300 people away
from the Nazi army.
The
well-documented
story of their wartime
adventures
makes
a
touching
human
tragedy
and
the
relationships
with
the zoo animals adds
a special touch of
nature.
The club will meet
again on May 3rd to
discuss The Senator’s
Wife
by
Karen
Robards. Hope to see
you there!

(Family Home Evening Group)

Our monthly meeting for May will be held on May 9th, the
usual second Monday. We meet at 6:00 pm in the Mesa Verde
Room. Anyone who wishes to join us is invited to participate.
If you would like to attend, please call Darlene Rich, 986-6985
so that we may have a more accurate count of tables to set.

settings and water to drink will be furnished. We enjoy our
potluck dinners as it gives an opportunity to sample many
different and interesting dishes.
We will be having an unusual and interesting program for
May. Our guest speaker will be Joyce Schnell, a resident of
SVE. Joyce was born in British Guyana, South America, of
parents from India. She came to this country at age 20 and
has a very interesting perspective on that part of the world and
her cultural heritage. We are really looking forward to hearing
from her. It promises to be a very educational and enjoyable
evening. We would be happy to have you join us.
SVE Lapidary/
Silversmith Club
Paul Thovson
Most of our winter residents have departed for their
summer homes and those of us staying here will miss them
and the high level of activity in the lapidary shop. The shop
will continue to operate during the summer on Monday,
Wednesday, Friday, 8:30-11:20 AM, May through September
. Summertime is an excellent time to visit the shop and start a
project or learn some new lapidary skills. The Club members
voted to purchase a new furnace that can be programmed to
automatically control heat and burnout time. This will help in
controlling the time of casting jewelry. We will also be doing
minor repair work on the machines. When the temperature
gets up to 110 the shop is an excellent place to avoid the heat.
The food sales at the Craft Fair helped replenish the Club
treasury. Thanks to all the volunteers, the whole operation
ran smoothly. On April 5th we had our last monthly Club
meeting until October 4th.

SVE GENEALOGY
Jean McLane
The time has come to bid
farewell to winter visitors and
hope they have a safe journey
north.
For those doing genealogy
along the way check the www.
USGENWEB.com for societies
or libraries or cemeteries near
your destinations. If you are
short on space, just take a
pedigree chart with a few notes, and a digital camera. I am
quoting the FHSA President in the last newsletter and she also
says not to forget the newest genealogy tool, a flash drive.
I was going to report on the seminar but was unable to
go, but I know it was good and there is a new slate of state
officers.
We lost Ellen Satchwell and our condolances go to her
son Greg. Les and Diane Schmidt are moving back to MN
and we will miss them. Diane got me started doing family
research again after years of just thinking about it.
Rick’s program on the “Story Behind The National
Anthem” in March which was very interesting and he
answered many questions. He will have more material for
us when he returns in the fall.
Our April meeting was comparing “brick walls” and
listening to how some of them were broken. Interesting stories,
please come and share yours. We will not have meetings this
summer except for those wishing to go to the Mesa FHC the
first Wednesday of each month. If you would like to go, meet
on the Mesa Verde Room Patio at 8:45 A.M. to carpool to the
Center. If you don’t wish to spend a full day, invite a friend to
join you so you won’t be traveling alone.
Our meetings will be back on schedule in October with
the first program of the season. For those remaining, the
meeting room is available if you wish to get together or just
spend time researching our own material. Gene Trust has the
keys and our cabinets are full. We do have a reader and a lot
of fiche if anyone wishes to use it.
If you have questions or need help please call Gene Trust,
373-6052, or Jean McLane, 986-0002. One of us will be
available to help you or answer your questions.
Happy researching.

RED HAT SOCIETY
Shirley Miller
The Dazzling Dolls were all dressed in our purple
attire with red hats, but the colorful setting was very
green in honor of St Patrick’s Day. Thank you to Group
5 for hosting and providing the delicious treats.
As always, we had our fun pledge, cute stories,
birthday announcements, additions to get well list, and
each group gave us updates on their outings for the
month.
Fitting for the season, Myla O’Dell read us a story/
poem she wrote a few years ago for a local Portland
magazine contest regarding basketball. It was in regard
to her family’s thoughts on the changes in the basketball
game. Her mother was the basketball star in the family
having a father that was the coach. Myla won top prize
for her writing and we were happy to have her share it
with us.
Once again it is time to say good-bye to many of our
members that spend our hot months in other areas. We
wish them all a wonderful summer and safe return to us.
A Social Security representative will be the speaker
at our next Tea. You are welcome to attend whether you
are a member or not. Guests are always welcome.

SUNRUNNERS
Mylla O’Dell
For the March outing of the
Sunrunners, seven rigs headed south
to Yuma. Our first night’s dinner was
at the Masker’s Italian Restaurant, set
up in Marlene and Larry Masker’s RV.
She had tables for 14 people, complete
with wax-dripped candles made by
Marlene. Tom and Laurie Shade were
co-hosts, and besides the best spaghetti
you can imagine, we had salad, garlic
bread, and spumoni ice cream.
Monday morning we car-pooled to
the “Center of the World” at Felicity,
California. We received certificates
testifying that we stood on the
official center of the world. Sixteen
monuments highlight the memory of
humanity, a U.S. Marine Corps Korean
War Memorial, history of Arizona, etc.
We ate lunch at Lute’s Casino – not a
casino at all, but a definite landmark of
Yuma. It does have the state’s oldest
pool hall and domino parlor! In the
afternoon we hopped on down to the
Yuma Territorial Prison. Everyone was
tired, so we returned to our RV’s to rest
for the next day’s activities.
Our third day in Yuma was a trip to
the Peanut Patch. We had a free tour
by the owner, who told us all about the
history of peanuts in Yuma. They don’t
actually grow them there anymore,
they are now imported for use in
products created there. From peanuts,
we traveled down the road to the
“Camel Farm”. They actually do have
camels there, as well a ze-donk (zebra/
donkey). We had a young female tour
guide who had excellent knowledge of
the animals and enthusiasm to match.
Yuma Landing was a good choice for
dinner.
Besides fun tours and dinners, we had
SVE No-tap Bowling
Our No-Tap bowling season has ended and is going out
with a bang. The teams finished as follows. Nuts & Bolts,
Next Time, Misfits, OneDer’s, SOB’s, Lost #3, Bobs Gals, &
Bys Bunch. Some shining stars, Chuck and Sharon Strand,
John Ganzy, Curt Davis, Helen Bys, Norm Lundblum, Ruth
Morello,and Mylla O’Dell. Good Bowling Everyone!! Our
bowling banquet was on Friday April 8th. Summer bowling
has begun on Wednesday at 1:30 at Brunswick. Come out
and join us. Have a good summer and we’ll see you again
in the fall.
SVE Ladies Golf Club
Diane Hollis
It has been a busy month for the ladies golf league.
Congratulations to Colleen Riley, the new 2011 Hdc
18 Hole Champion, and Judy Clifton, the new 18 Hole
Club Champion. Congratulations also go out to Marjorie
Thomason, the new 2011 Hdc 9 Hole Champion, and
Arlene Zacher, the new 9 Hole Club Champion.
Our Home & Home with Leisure World was won by Peg
Schell and Shirley Clark’s team and Betty Gamsemer and
Pat Armstrongs’ team; a lst place tie. The Travel Team is
still holding lst place. The next 18 hole Home & Home
will be with Sunland Village.
Men’s Golf Club
On March 8th & 10th we had our Club Championship
Tournament. The awards were presented at our Awards Lunch
in the auditorium. The winner of the Club Championship this
year is Steve Marlatt. Following is a list of winners of the
fights:
Flight 1 Steve Marlatt, Flight 2 Mike Ryan, Flight 3 Jerry
Ryan, Fight 4 Bob
Gerken, Flight 5 Neville Coppin, Flight 6 Galen Finley and
Flight 7 Larry Whitaker.
The winner of the 9 Hole is Butch Hack. Harvey Schmidt
won the longest putt and Richard Scocco won the closest to the
pin. We had two members get a hole in one in March. Richard
Scocco on Hole #17 and Merle Baumen on Hole # 3.
We would like to welcome Roger Zanarini as a new member
to our club. Please make him welcome.
WOOD SHOP NEWS
a lot of good camaraderie sitting outside
our rigs and getting to know each other
better. One evening, at the suggestion
of Laurie Shade, we each told how we
met our spouses. It was interesting
hearing it from the wife’s perspective
and also the husband’s. It was fun to
hear “love at first sight” stories, pen
pal stories, long-term and fairly shortterm marriages. One unique proposal
included “benefits”. The wife was
looking for different health insurance,
and the husband said “marry me-I
come with benefits!” She married him,
but I am sure not for that reason!
We always have lots of fun at our
outings, and once a month we meet in
the Mesa Verde room at 3:15 p.m. for
a meeting to discuss future outings and
talk about things of interest to RV’ers.
Come join us and see what we’re all
about.
Earl Burdick
It is with sadness that we watch the snowbirds starting to
head North. Those of you who are still here will be pleased to
learn the Wood Shop bought a new lathe-now we have three.
The new lathe, a Nova DVR XP, has the latest technologyno belts or pulleys. Changes in speed is accomplished
electronically 0-3500 RPM. You are going to love it.
The Wood Shop craftsman of the month is again Ed
Fischer. He was last month also, but the picture of his basket
was not included. He made a wooden basket shown in the
accompanying picture. Different than what you see at state
fairs. Every thing except the purple heart stakes is made from
one board. Efficient use of materials, no? The weavers that
comprise the sides are concentric rings cut with a scroll saw.
SUNLAND
STITCHERS
Barb Williams
April showers brought us lots of projects to begin, work
on and finish in May. The Patches and Petals Quilt and Craft
Show in March left us a bit slower in April. The Opportunity
Quilt winner was Sunland Village East resident Jan Andeweg.
Marcia Todd reported we donated 28 quilts to Cardon
Children’s Hospital, 24 quilts to Cornerstone Hospital and
10 quilts to House of Refuge. The Art Design Bra’s were
enthusiastically received. We were asked to show them off
again at the April Pancake Breakfast. Donations are going to
Breast Cancer. The makers and viewers all seemed to enjoy
this project. Winners were Bev Huffman’s “Bosom Buddies”
for best design and Lolly Platt “Blue Footed Booby” best
name.
Do you love a good mystery? We quilter’s sure do and
many have signed up for a Mystery quilt “Beyond The
Block” working on seven focus blocks during the summer.
In the fall we will add to them and find out how they will
join together in a quilt. The nine patch blocks were halted in
April and will continue again in October, when we will put
them in various patterns to form quilts. We have twentyseven quilter’s working on this project.
We are especially proud of three our quilter’s who won
ribbons at the March Arizona Quilt Show. Bev Hasslinger,
a first place, for best use of color. Sue Thompson, second
place, for her animal quilt. Barb Nicholson, third place, use
of machine embroidery and her own quilting. Way to go!
Many members are leaving for their summer homes but
will continue working on various projects to be completed
in the fall. Safe travel and we’ll see you then.
