The Women’s Club of Sun City Anthem will hold the May luncheon on May 11, 2006 in the Anthem Center. Doors will open at 10:45 a.m. and lunch will be served at 11:30 a.m. The cost of the luncheon is $18 for members and $23 for non-members and the deadline for reservations is May 7th at 5:00 p.m.

The May luncheon program will feature Elaine E. Beaubien, a faculty member of Edgewood College in Madison, Wisconsin. She is a published author of romance novels under the pen name of E.K. Barber. She is also an experienced speaker in the fields of writing, management training and education.

The charity for May is Henderson Allied Community Advocates (HACA).

Attention Sun City Anthem Residents

The Sun City Anthem Covenants Committee is recruiting for a new member.

The Covenants Committee meets every second Wednesday of the month from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. at the Anthem Center.

The Covenants Committee is comprised of Sun City Anthem members and serves as the Hearing Panel for the Association. The Hearings provide due process for our members, and is very effective in resolving various compliance issues covered in our Governing Documents.

The Committee determines whether or not a violation exists and recommends sanctions to the Association's Board of Directors who review their recommendations, and impose the sanctions, which can include fines and/or loss of membership privileges.

If you are interested in becoming a member, please submit a resume or short bio to the Community Standards office and an interview will be arranged.

Eastern Avenue to have only two lanes this weekend!

The City of Henderson has advised the Association that beginning this Friday, May 5, Eastern Ave. will be reduced to two lanes each direction (north & south) between Coronado and Horizon Ridge.

The lane restrictions will be in effect throughout the weekend, with the roadway scheduled to open Monday morning.

This work is being completed as part of the development of the South Point Plaza, and includes the milling, grading and paving of Eastern. If traveling in that area, you may want to consider an alternate route.
