Editor’s MessageIn this month’s magazine we are featuring biographies of the candidates for the Westbrook Village Association Board of Directors. The elected Directors make important decisions for the community and work very hard to make Westbrook Village a first-class active adult neighborhood. You will have the opportunity to meet them all at Meet the Candidates night on February 15, 2018 at the Lakes Ballroom 7 p.m. I encourage you to come out and meet the folks that will be responsible for much of the planning for the community. This is important. Also, please be kind. This is a volunteer position that requires hours of work on behalf of this neighborhood. If you don’t vote then your opinion will not be heard. Remember, you are really blessed to live in Westbrook Village.

Do you have a good Westbrook idea, memory or club event? If so, we want to hear from you! Please direct emails as well as all letters to the editor at: [email protected].

Publisher’s Message

Thanks again for all your compliments on the magazine. The credit really belongs to my partner and Editor, Lori Reiland. As your new issue is being printed and delivered to you, Lori is working hard to put together the features and photographs for the next month. Material for the new issue must be at the printer for layout and proofing by the fifteenth of the month to assure that the completed magazine reaches the Post Office for delivery to your home.

An event such as the upcoming Car Show that takes place the last week of a month will be featured in the following month. We try to rotate coverage of all clubs and activities but need your help to do so. Please send your photos, articles and pictures! Your suggestions are always welcome. Contact Lori at [email protected]. Past issues of the magazine are posted on our website at www.westbrookvillageliving.com

“Michelle Gailiun, a member of our club, thought it might be a good way to keep the kids busy with something fun, plus give the guys a little competition,” says Ralph Doner, the club’s president. “I wasn’t so sure,” he said. So Doner invited the kids to stop by his house to find out just how they’d do.

“Like all grandparents, we think our grandchildren are good at what they do, and Michelle was no exception. But given their ages, I assumed their knowledge of the game was limited,” said Doner. “So I sat them down and asked them to name the pieces and so on. But very early in the game, Maxx said, ‘check’, and to my surprise, I was in check, and then shortly thereafter was checkmated! I told myself I had taken him for granted and that’s why I lost, but then I took on Hudson, who had been watching intently, and barely squeaked out a victory.”

The boys, sons of Troy and Molly Calapp of Peoria, attend Great Hearts Archway Classical Academy. Hudson, now seven, started playing chess when he was five. But it was his older brother, Maxx, who first discovered chess when

his classroom teachers arranged an “in-house field day” where students could explore different activities. The boys now take weekly chess lessons and have won trophies in area tournaments involving hundreds of players.

“They are impressive,” said club member Don McCoin.

The Westbrook Chess Club, now in its third year, celebrates not just a game of the ages, but a game for all ages. Literally. Beginning last fall, several tables of dedicated players started taking on a couple of pint-sized contenders on Wednesday afternoons, when they are off from school.

The boys have learned a lot from the players. Recently, club member Charlie Rice brought in his autographed souvenir card from one of the most storied matches in history, the Bobby Fischer/Boris Spassky world championship match of 1972 in Reykjavik, Iceland. “It’s a pretty important piece of paper because Fischer didn’t like to sign much,” said Rice.

Chess club members benefit from the game, just as the kids do. “I like chess because it works your brain,” says Maxx. “At least it’s something worth knowing,” added Hudson.

“In my 35 years in education, I didn’t hear anything like that from many students,” said Doner. “ We see youth today spending a lot of time texting and playing video games so it is refreshing that chess is gaining in popularity with our young people.”

Doner says chess might not build your biceps or tone your abs, but you can benefit your life long mental health by playing the game.

He says studies have shown that chess can:

• Promote brain growth• Spark creativity• Increase problem solving ability• Teach planning and foresight• Improve reading skills• Preserve mental acuity• Teach logic and efficiency

The WBV Chess Club plays from 1:00 to 3:30 p.m. on Tuesdays and from noon to 2:30 on Wednesdays at either the Lakes patio when weather permits, and if not, in the multi-purpose room. There are no fees, and beginners are welcome. For more information, call Ralph Doner at 623-547-6553 or email him at [email protected]. Come on out and learn the game!

When the City of Peoria incorporated in 1954, our city spanned 1.2 square miles and only 1,925 residents called Peoria home. In the past 63 years, we have experienced tremendous growth and we are now home to more than 171,000 residents, spanning 178 square miles.

Every person is part of the unique character that makes up our great City and each of us has a story. With such a large community and so many residents, it can be difficult to know the people

and the families who live and work alongside us. There are those who carry the rich history and heritage of the lands that we call home, and others who are emerging and molding Peoria’s future.

Over the next year, I will help tell the stories of a few of the people who make our community so special through a program I’m calling, “I am Peoria.” It’s a chance to hear directly from the people who impact our community every single day - and as your Mayor, I wanted to give residents a chance to hear my story, too.

Although I took office as Peoria’s first female Mayor in January 2015, I was first elected to Peoria City Council in 2005 to represent the Mesquite District. However, the reason I decided to run for office started much earlier.

I was born in Pennsylvania and my family moved to Arizona in 1969. In the early 1980s, hearing that the job market was booming, I moved to North Texas. As time went on, I met and married my husband Dennis, settled in Plano, and started a family. While we were busy with the daily cares of a young family, our sleepy suburb began an incredible transformation.

A Texas businessman bought land and relocated his corporate headquarters to Plano. As other companies followed, the changes to the city of Plano were substantial. Property values soared and families enjoyed economic stability.

Missing family and desert climate, we moved back to Arizona and settled in Peoria in 2001 where I began working for Central Arizona Project.

I moved to Peoria because of the beautiful mountains, the vast desert, the amazing home values, and the great schools.

I ran for office because I knew the value of my business experience and my vision for a complete community.

Having held executive positions in Texas, working at Central Arizona Project for 13 years, and serving on the Peoria City Council for almost 10 years, I retired to concentrate full-time on being Mayor and building Peoria to its fullest potential.

I am thankful for the opportunity to lead a community with as much opportunity as we have here in Peoria.

Peoria is home to people who enjoy an exceptional quality of life. Each of us is bound together by a common thread - a common interest - which brought us to where we are, and over the next several months, I’m excited to share their “I am Peoria” stories. I hope you’ll join me to hear these unique stories for yourself.

Move to Westbrook Village and you’ll havewonderful friends and

neighbors like me!!

Authors' CornerMaxwell L. Jordan has experienced a life that places him firmly into what Tom Brokaw calls The Greatest Generation. This WWII memoir, We Were United Then chronicles his journey, all the way to victory over the unspeakable evils of the Axis Powers. Hovering in the background of

this intriguing account is the story of the Advanced Section Communications Zone Squad conceived by Dwight D. Eisenhower.

This tale of struggle under the most primitive conditions is one of heroic valor under fire, spiked with humorous insights into Army life. The book includes a WWII Slang Dictionary with phrases the G.I.s concocted that endure to pepper our speech today. Travel along this three year journey following a boy who enlisted in the Army to emerge as an extraordinary man.

About the Author

Dick took up writing as a pastime hobby in his retirement years. Dick and Max Jordan, the subject of this WWII memoir, are close personal friends. Dick grew up in the same hometown and graduated from the same Christian grade school as Max. Dick considers it an honor to be friends with a man as delightful and accomplished as Max.

Did you know that eating (and drinking) with friends will lower your heart rate and boost your endorphins, contributing to a longer life? On the flip side, social isolation has been proven to be more harmful to your heart than smoking eight cigarettes a day. So eat the Twinkies!

Our chefs at Royal Oaks inspire our residents to make meal time the happiest time of the day. A pub and three distinct dining venues (from casual to elegant) offer a wide variety of food and friendship. And then you can speed up your metabolism in our gorgeous fitness center, complete with two pools and activities galore.

As the west valley’s only exclusively Type A Lifeplan Community (CCRC), Royal Oaks’ campus includes homes and apartments on 40+ acres for independent living. If you need a higher level of care, all those services are right in our community and you receive that care without an increase in your monthly fee.

We invite you to tour, have lunch, and chat with residents so you can discover why they always seem to have a smile on their faces. You may first want to download this free report, Royal Oaks, Fact or Fiction, available immediately at www.royaloaks.com.

Call (623) 815-4132 to arrange your personal visit.

It’s better to eat Twinkies with friends than broccoli alone!

Take time to notice how love shows up in different ways for you, sometimes even with GodWinks and Unforseen Kisses!

Happy Valentine's Day,

Chaplain Greg

Greg Olson is a Board Certified Chaplain and Grief Recovery Specialist. He is the Pastor and Director of Life Discovery Ministries in Glendale, AZ, a non-profit organization dedicated to helping those in grief or loss. You can reach Greg at [email protected].

Winks & KissesIt’s that time of year when little candy hearts begin to appear on grocery store shelves and thoughts turn to hearts and valentines.

February is the month of love.

It is something we humans have a hard time understanding, isn’t it––just how God actually loves us? There's a song by the David Crowder Band called How He Loves Us. I have a favorite line in that song: “...and heaven meets earth like an unforseen kiss.”

What an image! Have you ever gotten an unforseen kiss from heaven--a serendipity moment when suddenly love breaks through for you, expressed in a way you weren’t expecting? Maybe it's an unexpected meeting or phone call from a friend that turns out to be so much more than an everyday coincidence. Or a hike alone in the mountains or on the beach that suddenly turns into a very private worship service. Or maybe it’s something you read that touches your heart just when you need it most. God can come to us through everyday people and circumstances. These coincidences are often his divine appointments with us.

Author Squire Rushnell calls them GodWinks. He's written several books about them. They are those extraordinary little events in your life that are delivered to you at a particular moment in perfect timing. Those moments can change the course of your day––or your life.

WVA Treasurer’s ReportFor the month ended November 30, 2017

David Mason, Treasurer

The following figures have not been audited. However, they fairly represent the approximate financial condition of the Association at month-end.

GENERAL OPERATING FUND (Funds designated for day-to-day operations.)

Cash and CD’s at Month-end were $1,287,495. Accounts payable, accrued payroll and other liabilities were $678,995. Prepaid and deferred assessments accounted for $532,695 of this.

Revenue for the month was $215,041 which is $11,941 below budget due primarily to rental revenues lagging. Expenses at $228,186 were $11,551 over budget largely due to timing differences and higher than expected repairs for backflows and sidewalks. Year-to-date operating surplus was $71,810 better than budget prior to storm damages of$145,000.

REPLACEMENT RESERVE FUND (Funds designated for major repairs and replacements)

Cash and CD’s at Month-end net of payables were $3,975,866. Revenue for the month of $50,219 trailed budget by $10,530 largely due to preservation fees lagging. For 11 months preservation fees are $219,920 better than budgeted. Expenditures for the month were $9,944 for three items.

These financial reports will be on file at the WVA Administration Office after noon on Thursday, January 4, 2018 and may be reviewed by Association members. Please call 623-561-0099 for an appointment.

When the new National Commander of the American Legion tried to join 37 years ago, she was informed that “Women join the Auxiliary” (the Legion wives’ group). In September, Denise Rohan was voted the first female National Commander, heading up an organization of over two million members and 14,000 posts worldwide, still mostly male.

Rohan is a U.S. Army veteran from Wisconsin, and in her inaugural address she announced her theme for the year: “Family First,” based on the Legion’s motto of “For God and Country.” She stated, “I believe we were put here, where you are today…for the greater good. We are not here to judge one another. We are here to nurture and take care of one another.” She stressed that “families grow through love and support for one another,” and the American Legion family is part of our larger extended family.

All American Legion posts now will take Commander Rohan’s mission and apply it locally. Arizona Post 145’s Commander, also a woman, is prepared to do just that. Commander Bobbie Kimelton, a Westbrook resident for eight years, also a U.S. Army veteran, served many years primarily in Germany. Her MOS (Military Occupation Specialty) was as a Russian linguist (Cryptographic Signal Interceptor).

Kimelton’s plans to apply the “Family First” theme are first to make Post 145 well-known as family friendly: spouses, children, grandchildren are all welcome. Kimelton’s second strategy is to get Post members personally involved in supporting children and youth programs such as Junior Shooting Sports, the Law Enforcement Academy, Boys’/Girls’ State, the annual oratorical event, Boy Scouts, Junior ROTC, flag education, and Legion Baseball. The third prong of her plan is to support veterans’ programs including shelters for homeless women veterans, the AZ Stand-down, and training dogs for wounded veterans.

Commander Rohan also stated in her speech that “To make a difference in someone’s life, you don’t have to be brilliant, rich, beautiful, or perfect. You just have to care enough to be there.”

Commander Kimelton seconded that thought, adding that “Legion Support” is more than financial support. It is actually partnering with area schools, for projects like scholarships for children of wounded warriors. Observers will see an impressive year with these two women at their helms!

Post #145 meets on the second Wednesday of each month, 6:00 p.m., at the Lakes Recreation Center. All are welcome, and dinner is served!

Peter AtkinsI grew up in Gravesend, England where I left school at 18 to pursue an accounting career. I studied for my accounting certification while working and passed the necessary exams by the time I was 22.

In 1968 I joined 3M Company. During my 34 years with 3M, I worked in England, Belgium and, from 1988 to my retirement in 2002, the United States. My career included time in management accounting, sales, marketing and information technology. In 1989 I passed the Certified Management Accountant certification exams. I retired in 2002 as a Director in the Information Technology area.

My three daughters all live in the United States (in Minnesota, Texas and Missouri). They have five children and two stepchildren between them. Janet and I have been married for 29 years.

We first bought a property in Westbrook Village in 1998, and moved full time to our present home in 2002. In our youth, I played rugby and Janet was a good skier/ski instructor. We now enjoy playing golf and traveling. We are also keen football fans and have Arizona Cardinals season tickets. I am a member at Peace Lutheran Church where I serve as an Assisting Minister and occasional lay preacher.

I served on the Board from 2005 to 2015 and was part of the team that put Westbrook Village in a strong financial position. After a year's break, I returned in 2016 and I now offer myself to serve again.

Max W. Allen, B.S., DPh.I was born and brought up in Bangor, ME. I graduated from the Univ. of Conn. College of Pharmacy and have been a Registered Pharmacist since June of 1962. I moved to Oklahoma in 1987 where I supervised the start-up and operation of a full service clinical laboratory for long-term care facilities. I also practiced pharmacy while there for 20 years. In 2007, my wife and I moved to Phoenix working for CVS Pharmacy until I retired in August of 2009.

I have always enjoyed giving back to my community, profession, and synagogue. Over the years, I have participated by serving on boards in many organizations taking on responsibility of leadership at all levels. Nonprofessional groups included, Masons ( 32nd Degree), Anah Temple Shrine, Bangor Jaycees, Synagogue Boards in both Bangor and Oklahoma, Locally I serve as President of the Village Players Group, PAC and the Westbrook Village Recreation Committee.

I believe that it is past time for a change in the composition of the board. New faces, ideas and fresh voices are needed for Westbrook Village to continue to be a viable, lively, active community and fun to live in. I am asking for your vote to the Board of Directors to enable me to contribute my knowledge and experience accumulated over a lifetime to help WBV continue to grow and prosper. Thank you.

Thomas CanepaI recently retired following a 40 year career in administrative roles at public universities. Each position involved extensive budgetary management and fiscal responsibility, personnel functions, committee work and interaction with various public constituents.

Following completion of bachelor's and master's degrees from the University of Arizona, I worked for Northern Arizona University for 20 years in various administrative positions. While at NAU I completed my doctoral degree in educational leadership. Most recently, I oversaw the admissions and financial aid offices for the University of Cincinnati, working with a staff of 80+ professionals to enroll over 5,000 new students each year.

My familiarity with Westbrook Village goes back 30 years, when my parents became residents. I witnessed the evolution of the development through our regular visits and was always impressed by the conscious effort on the part of previous board members and management to maintain a community that offered many amenities and a warm, welcoming environment to residents. This environment was a major consideration to our moving here to begin retirement.

I am very interested in contributing to the future of Westbrook Village, and in the short time we've lived here I have joined the golf club and the woodshop organization. I had the opportunity to participate in the budget development process for 2018 as a member of the Budget Committee. Learning more about the workings of the Westbrook Village HOA has further piqued my interest and I look forward to serving the community as a member of the board.

CandidatesMichael GreeneMy wife, Jo Ann, and I have lived in WBV fulltime for over 12 years and have owned a home here since 1998.

In my two years on the WBVHOA Board I have endeavored to represent the entire community and not any individual group or point of view. As Chair of the Landscape & Facilities and Recreation Committees, I have worked to make improvements in our village which will benefit all and enhance the community. Our objective as Board members should be to produce progressive thinking and improvements, maintain our facilities and property in top condition and be fiscally responsible.

In the past I have served on the Board of the WBVGC; as President for four years and Greens and Grounds Director for 2. I was elected to the Elwood, NY Board of Education and served it for years being re-elected 4 times. I was President of the Board for 6 years. These positions gave me experience working in a group to achieve positive results. I was deeply involved in personnel, facilities and future planning in each position.

Most of all, these positions taught me the importance of listening to all concerned first and then, speaking.

I would very much appreciate your support.

Sil Maiorana My name is Sil Maiorana. My wife and I moved to WBV from the suburbs of Chicago in September 2016. We were very familiar with WBV as my parents were original owners in Phase I in 1985. We were always impressed with the friendliness of the village and how beautifully maintained the homes and facilities were. It made our choice for retirement relocation an easy one.

In my professional life, I spent the last 30 years in the Aerospace and Defense industry, most recently working for United Technologies, one of the largest defense contractors in the world. I served as Accounting and Finance Director for several sites within UTC, as well as Accounting Director for 25 years for a privately held company in the Chicago area. My professional experience has trained me well to be "fiscally responsible" and it is this training that I believe would qualify me to serve on the WBV Board of Directors.

I am a member of the Pickle Ball Club, the Italian American Club and WBV Golf Club. Most recently I served on the WBV Budget Committee which provided valuable insight into the processes in place for managing our Operations and Replacement Reserve budgets. It is in these critical areas that I believe I can best serve our HOA Board. I believe my skill and experience in financial management can help ensure the continued success of our community.

Thank you for the opportunity to serve on the Westbrook Village HOA Board.

WV Tennis Club TOURNAMENT AND LUNCHEON JANUARY 13, 2018

The tennis courts are available to all WV residents, owners and lessees according to the reservation schedules. Non-residents can use the courts by being sponsored by a resident, paying the $50 annual fee to WV; additionally they can join the tennis club for $20/year.

The next event is scheduled for March 3, and includes tennis, luncheon, and the annual general meeting.

WVA Annual MeetingWednesday March 14, 2018

6:00 p.m.at the Lakes Ballroom

Going GalapagosGil Vasquez became enamored with the Galapagos Islands years ago with the documentaries of Jacques Cousteau. June 2017, Vasquez fulfilled his wish to see the isles, with a trip to Ecuador from the sixth to the sixteenth.

Inspired by the famous nature documentaries of the French documentarian Jacques Cousteau, Vasquez embarked on what he described as “the best adventure trip ever”, first with a flight to Miami, Florida, and then to Guayaquil, Ecuador. The next morning, he landed on the Galapagos Islands, 620 miles west of the mainland in the Pacific Ocean. The flight from Guayaquil to the Islands lasted about an hour and a half, and at the end of that flight, Vasquez found himself on Isla Isabela, right on the equator, the largest of the islands.

On that island, there is an inactive volcano named “Cerro Negro”, with a caldera ten miles across. Vasquez hiked the volcano and had one word to say: “Yikes”.

Thank you for your support of the Performing Arts Council and the Village Voices in Westbrook Village!

After many years of service, the digital piano used for PAC performances is no longer reliable and needs to be replaced. The Piano Search Committee is excited to report a unanimous decision to purchase a Yamaha G3 Grand Piano for Westbrook Village.

The dynamic range, rich resonance, diverse tonality and responsive touch of this fine instrument will enable our performers to convey the rich sound expression that composers incorporate into their works.

The Westbrook Village Performing Arts Council, due to the generosity of our donors, is delighted to be able to provide this elegant instrument to the community. So far, over $7,500.00 has been raised to make the new piano purchase. Our goal is to raise $10,000.00 and any additional funds raised will be put into a fund solely for the maintenance of the piano.

The Village Voices beloved accompanist, Sandra Fiechtner Bergo, suddenly passed away on Friday, Jan. 5, 2018. Contributions to the Piano Fund can be made in Sandy's memory. If you are interested in helping us make this dream come true, we would be honored to have your financial support.

Village Voices Piano Fundraising Campaign

* The PAC is seeking accomplished pianists of any genre to perform for the dedication recital of the new Grand Piano in March. If interested, please contact Shelley Logan at (425) 330-2317.*

Citrus, One of the Arizona C’sIt’s that time of year, right? Neighbors see you coming with a bag in your hand, and they turn the other direction. We give away a lot of lemons this time of year, and you may be in the same boat (or is that “tree”?).

At church, I give ideas for lemon use to unload more produce. For example, I zest a bunch of lemons and freeze the zest for Shrimp Scampi or lemon bars later on. I freeze whole lemons to zest or juice later. I freeze them whole, skin on and naked (de-zested), in a gallon bag pushing out extra air. I use those when I need a lot of juice for a recipe. Yeah, they get mushy, but that’s okay. You’re going for the juice. I also freeze juice cubes, two tablespoons in each ice cube tray section. I freeze slices for water or tea. Lesson: don’t give them all away!

Sharon’s Lemon Bars Crust: 1½ cups flour ½ cup powdered sugar 1 tablespoon lemon zest 8 tablespoons butter

Filling: 1 cup sugar 2 tablespoons flourzest of 2 lemons ½ teaspoon baking powder¼ teaspoon salt2 eggs8 tablespoons lemon juice

Directions: For crust, combine flour, sugar, zest, and butter and mix to coarse ground meal. Press into bottom of 11x7” lightly greased pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.

For filling, combine sugar, flour, zest, baking powder, salt, and eggs. Whip with whisk. Add lemon juice.

Pour onto baked crust. Bake for 20-25 minutes. Cool 30 minutes. Cut into 12 squares and dust with additional confectioner’s sugar if desired.

How much did homes in Westbrook appreciate last year?

I’ve heard this question many times recently so I thought I would share some market sta-tistics. Looking at Arizona Re-gional Multiple Listing Service (ARMLS) data, the overall rate of appreciation based on price per square foot in Westbrook was 5%. If we break it down to single family homes only, the rate drops to 4.5%. Casitas and condos have appreciated more than homes at 5.5%. Is this surprising to you?

The reason for this is that low-er-priced homes are going up in value faster than higher-priced homes because of the supply and demand principle. We are in what analysts refer to as a “trifurcated” market. There is a low-supply of homes under $300,000. There is a balance between supply and demand in the mid-range ($300,000-$800,000). And an over-supply in the higher-end inventory ($800,000+).

However, remember that we do not only use price per square foot to price homes. There are many variables such as location, condition and more.

To get an expert opinion on the value of your property please call or email and I will give you a personalized market analysis on your home at no cost to you.
