T he Association office receives numerous calls regarding a variety of issues that actually should be called

into the City of Peoria Police If you suspect any suspicious or criminal activity be sure to contact the police immediately either by dialing 911 or the non-emergency number at 623-773-8311 Please remember the Association staff or Community Patrol cannot respond to any type of criminal activity on your property

With summer heat in full swing many of you will escape the daily grind and head out on a well-deserved vacation Before you hit the road take a few precautions so your home isnrsquot enticing to thieves or susceptible to fire and other disasters Please consider implementing these safety tips to keep your home secure

Call on friends for help If yoursquore going to be away a week or more ask a trusted friend to check on your house every day or two or better yet housesit while yoursquore gone

Set your lights on a timer Leaving your house unlit for days on end is a sure sign to burglars that itrsquos empty but so is keeping the lights on 247

Stop your mail and newspaper Nothing screams ldquonobodyrsquos homerdquo like a pile of newspapers strewn about your doorstep

Donrsquot leave the spare house key lying around That fake rock where you keep the extra house key isnrsquot as discrete as you think Whether you keep a spare under your welcome mat above the door frame or in a hide-a-key contraption chances are it will take the nefarious types five minutes flat to find it and gain easy entry to your house

Make a last-minute checklist Are all the windows and doors locked Stove and oven turned off How about all the faucets Are the electronics unplugged and valuables secured Take five minutes before you leave to ensure your house is vacation-ready Another run-through of the house may seem unnecessary if you did it earlier in the day but knowing yoursquove left your house as safe as possible will help you kick back and have a great vacation

By taking these few simple precautions you can actually enjoy your vacation with the peace of mind in knowing that your property is safe and secure

Vistanciarsquos sales success is attributed to an increase in new home builder inventory totaling over 75 floorplan options the grand opening of Trilogyrsquos 360-acre expansion in January and the diverse range of new home pricing with options from the high $100rsquos to $500rsquos In total The Village at Vistancia accounts for 52 of new home sales Trilogy at Vistancia at 37 and Blackstone at Vistancia achieved 11 of the communities recorded mid-year sales Additionally the Vistancia Information Center has seen a 24 increase in new home buyer visitors year over year

Aeration

Over the past few weeks you may have noticed the Caretaker Landscape crews aerating some of the turf areas throughout the community Many people have the

questionhellip Why do we aerate lawns

The simple answer is because it promotes a healthier more vigorous lawn while saving on irrigation The University of Arizona Cooperative Extension Center one of the leading programs of its type in the southwest says ldquoto maintain a healthy lawn through periods of stress the soil should have adequate water air and nutrients in the top 6 to 10 inches Soils that are hard and compacted impede root growth which prevents the grass from developing the deep root system that is essential to survive hot dry periodsrdquo

As you can see from the picture core aeration removes plugs of thatch and soil from the lawn literally opening up the ground so nutrients water and air can enter the soil Within 6 to 8 weeks new and deeper roots have grown leading to thicker lawns

The other benefit of aeration is it reduces the amount of water used thereby saving you money When soils are hard and compacted especially on slopes water is unable to seep into the ground and runs off creating puddles When this happens the typical solution is to increase the irrigation time so the bad areas can get more water With core aeration water more easily seeps into the soil so irrigation times can be reduced

Another exciting thing that the Caretaker Landscape crews have been up to is Road Side and Driver Safety Training One of our priorities as your landscaper is the safety of the residents and their guests at the Vistancia Community Check out the photos

Care To Know Tip The plugs created by core aeration can be removed or left in place to breakdown and reintroduce microorganisms leading to improved soil

Covenants violations are often observed on a cyclical basis Some violations are noted seasonally and some more

frequent such as weekly or even daily Itrsquos the more frequently observed violations that can

have unwanted ramifications including fines As you are aware overnight street parking is prohibited in Vistancia As is the case with most rules the restriction on overnight street parking is a rule that many are divided over depending on your personal situation A look at the pros and cons of on street parking should provide an understanding as to why the rule was put into affect and is enforced as well as how abiding by the rule can positively impact your neighborhood

PROSbull Trashrecycle pick up is more effectivebull Street sweepers are more effectivebull Neighborhood appeal is cleanerbull Less street repairsmaintenancebull Better visibility for motorist (safety)

gtgtgt COveNANTS COrNer

By Andrew Olson Covenants Coordinator

Positively Parking

bull Better visibility for pedestrians (safety)bull Vehicles are less accessible for vandalism burglary or theftbull Vehicles are less likely to be sideswiped or involved in some

other accidentbull No bottlenecking occurs on narrower roadsbull Driveways are not blocked by other carsbull Emergency Vehicles have better access

CONSbull Inconvenient if owning multiple vehicles and shuffling carsbull Inconvenient when guests stay overbull May get oil stains in driveway (instead of street)

By having the restriction from 12 AM ndash 5AM residents get in the habit of parking in the garagedriveway during the day which helps with the aforementioned favorable effects If needed a temporary variance may be provided Please contact the Association office if you have questions Lets all work together to keep the community safe clean and try to avoid any parking tickets

In previous issues I have written about the importance of the proper sequence of motion in the golf swing While watching

golf throughout the week and weekend you see what happens when the sequence is

out of sync Specifically two things can happen neither are good results and here is the fix to get your swing together

Shot one - Over the top pull shot There are several reasons that a golfer may think they come over the top of a golf shot An over the top shot is a result of the club being swung from the top and passing by the ball prior to the body turning out of the way first If this occurs the swing path should be looked at first If the club is going back on the correct path the club should always be in front of your body If the club is behind you there is only one way to get the club back to the ball If the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is then the body is too slow The cure for this is not to slow the swing down Conversely you want to speed the body rotation up Feel the hips begin the downswing and the arms catch up to the lower body Now your swing is together

Shot two - The block out slice shot There are several reasons

Get It Together By Greg Ellis General Manager Trilogy Golf Club at Vistancia

that a golfer may think they block or slice a ball However a blocked out or slice shot is a result of the club lagging way behind the body on the forward swing Once again if the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is the body is too fast (This is what you see Tiger Woods do quite often when he misses to the right) The cure for this is not to slow the body down Conversely you want to speed up the arms Try to feel like the arms and lower body are swinging back to the ball at the same time Again your swing will be together

Just remember do not try to slow down a part of the swing and try to speed up the part of the swing that is slow

Have fun and remember if you need help with this tip or any other feel free to email me at gregellistrilogygolfclubcom or call me for a lesson at 623-328-5107

gtgtgt bLACkSTONe COuNTry CLub

We are all too familiar with the 110+ degree temperatures this time of year but donrsquot let that prevent you from enjoying a round of golf A little bit of preparation can

Hydrate- Remember to drink at least eight 8 ounce glasses of fluid per day depending on an individualrsquos health needs drinking more water is recommended and wonrsquot hurt the 8x8 rule however is a good guideline to help keep up with fluid intake

Wear a Cap and Sunglasses- Bringing the right accessories with you on the course will help keep you cool and prevent harmful UV rays from directly reaching your skin

Early Tee Times- Temperatures in Arizona can be 10 to 15 degrees cooler in the earlier parts of the morning scheduling earlier team times before the sun comes up can make for a much more enjoyable golf experience

V istancia Residents I wanted to send out a quick reminder from the Peoria Police Department about locking your doors rolling up your windows and keeping valuables out

of your car Recently we have had several burglaries in the Vistancia community where items were removed from vehicles and in a couple instances residences were entered The homes were entered after the garage door opener was used to gain access to the house The reports show that the vehicles that were entered were all unsecured and no forced entry was made It is imperative that everyone lock your doors and remove any valuables from your vehicles The ldquoBad Guysrdquo look for opportunity and the path of least resistance If they walk into your driveway see itrsquos unlocked with wallets sporting equipment etc in your vehicle they will be in and out of your car with YOUR property in less than a minute

gtgtgt CITy Of peOrIA

gtgtgt pOLICe beAT

With that being said the crime rate in Vistancia remains low I believe it remains low because of the community involvement with everyone watching out for one another Letrsquos keep that going Talk with your neighbors remind everyone to lock their doors and keep their windows rolled up In addition please remember the Peoria Police Department offers a wide range of crime prevention programs such as Crime Shield Nextdoorcom and Crime Reports We can even get you started on organizing your own block watch Please visit our website (httpwwwpeoriaazgov) for additional information or call Lisa Mattox at 623-773-5011 to learn more about our programs

I hope everyone is enjoying their summer months and is staying cool

Stop your mail and newspaper Nothing screams ldquonobodyrsquos homerdquo like a pile of newspapers strewn about your doorstep

Donrsquot leave the spare house key lying around That fake rock where you keep the extra house key isnrsquot as discrete as you think Whether you keep a spare under your welcome mat above the door frame or in a hide-a-key contraption chances are it will take the nefarious types five minutes flat to find it and gain easy entry to your house

Make a last-minute checklist Are all the windows and doors locked Stove and oven turned off How about all the faucets Are the electronics unplugged and valuables secured Take five minutes before you leave to ensure your house is vacation-ready Another run-through of the house may seem unnecessary if you did it earlier in the day but knowing yoursquove left your house as safe as possible will help you kick back and have a great vacation

Aeration

Over the past few weeks you may have noticed the Caretaker Landscape crews aerating some of the turf areas throughout the community Many people have the

questionhellip Why do we aerate lawns

The simple answer is because it promotes a healthier more vigorous lawn while saving on irrigation The University of Arizona Cooperative Extension Center one of the leading programs of its type in the southwest says ldquoto maintain a healthy lawn through periods of stress the soil should have adequate water air and nutrients in the top 6 to 10 inches Soils that are hard and compacted impede root growth which prevents the grass from developing the deep root system that is essential to survive hot dry periodsrdquo

As you can see from the picture core aeration removes plugs of thatch and soil from the lawn literally opening up the ground so nutrients water and air can enter the soil Within 6 to 8 weeks new and deeper roots have grown leading to thicker lawns

The other benefit of aeration is it reduces the amount of water used thereby saving you money When soils are hard and compacted especially on slopes water is unable to seep into the ground and runs off creating puddles When this happens the typical solution is to increase the irrigation time so the bad areas can get more water With core aeration water more easily seeps into the soil so irrigation times can be reduced

Another exciting thing that the Caretaker Landscape crews have been up to is Road Side and Driver Safety Training One of our priorities as your landscaper is the safety of the residents and their guests at the Vistancia Community Check out the photos

Care To Know Tip The plugs created by core aeration can be removed or left in place to breakdown and reintroduce microorganisms leading to improved soil

Keeping the kiddos entertained and not glued to electronics during the summer can be a tough task My kids and I recently crafted up a fun pool noodle boat racing boredom

In previous issues I have written about the importance of the proper sequence of motion in the golf swing While watching

golf throughout the week and weekend you see what happens when the sequence is

out of sync Specifically two things can happen neither are good results and here is the fix to get your swing together

Shot one - Over the top pull shot There are several reasons that a golfer may think they come over the top of a golf shot An over the top shot is a result of the club being swung from the top and passing by the ball prior to the body turning out of the way first If this occurs the swing path should be looked at first If the club is going back on the correct path the club should always be in front of your body If the club is behind you there is only one way to get the club back to the ball If the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is then the body is too slow The cure for this is not to slow the swing down Conversely you want to speed the body rotation up Feel the hips begin the downswing and the arms catch up to the lower body Now your swing is together

Shot two - The block out slice shot There are several reasons

Get It Together By Greg Ellis General Manager Trilogy Golf Club at Vistancia

that a golfer may think they block or slice a ball However a blocked out or slice shot is a result of the club lagging way behind the body on the forward swing Once again if the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is the body is too fast (This is what you see Tiger Woods do quite often when he misses to the right) The cure for this is not to slow the body down Conversely you want to speed up the arms Try to feel like the arms and lower body are swinging back to the ball at the same time Again your swing will be together

Just remember do not try to slow down a part of the swing and try to speed up the part of the swing that is slow

Have fun and remember if you need help with this tip or any other feel free to email me at gregellistrilogygolfclubcom or call me for a lesson at 623-328-5107

Tips for Beating the Summer Heat While Out on the Course By The Vistancia Information Center

gtgtgt bLACkSTONe COuNTry CLub

We are all too familiar with the 110+ degree temperatures this time of year but donrsquot let that prevent you from enjoying a round of golf A little bit of preparation can

go a long way when planning to spend extended time in the Arizona sun here are some helpful tips to keep you cool throughout the summer

Hydrate- Remember to drink at least eight 8 ounce glasses of fluid per day depending on an individualrsquos health needs drinking more water is recommended and wonrsquot hurt the 8x8 rule however is a good guideline to help keep up with fluid intake

Wear a Cap and Sunglasses- Bringing the right accessories with you on the course will help keep you cool and prevent harmful UV rays from directly reaching your skin

Early Tee Times- Temperatures in Arizona can be 10 to 15 degrees cooler in the earlier parts of the morning scheduling earlier team times before the sun comes up can make for a much more enjoyable golf experience

Take a Break- After the first nine holes take a break and enjoy a snack and cold beverage Getting out of the heat for a few minutes to cool down will help you get through to the eighteenth hole |

V istancia Residents I wanted to send out a quick reminder from the Peoria Police Department about locking your doors rolling up your windows and keeping valuables out

of your car Recently we have had several burglaries in the Vistancia community where items were removed from vehicles and in a couple instances residences were entered The homes were entered after the garage door opener was used to gain access to the house The reports show that the vehicles that were entered were all unsecured and no forced entry was made It is imperative that everyone lock your doors and remove any valuables from your vehicles The ldquoBad Guysrdquo look for opportunity and the path of least resistance If they walk into your driveway see itrsquos unlocked with wallets sporting equipment etc in your vehicle they will be in and out of your car with YOUR property in less than a minute

gtgtgt CITy Of peOrIA

gtgtgt pOLICe beAT

With that being said the crime rate in Vistancia remains low I believe it remains low because of the community involvement with everyone watching out for one another Letrsquos keep that going Talk with your neighbors remind everyone to lock their doors and keep their windows rolled up In addition please remember the Peoria Police Department offers a wide range of crime prevention programs such as Crime Shield Nextdoorcom and Crime Reports We can even get you started on organizing your own block watch Please visit our website (httpwwwpeoriaazgov) for additional information or call Lisa Mattox at 623-773-5011 to learn more about our programs

I hope everyone is enjoying their summer months and is staying cool

T he Association office receives numerous calls regarding a variety of issues that actually should be called

into the City of Peoria Police If you suspect any suspicious or criminal activity be sure to contact the police immediately either by dialing 911 or the non-emergency number at 623-773-8311 Please remember the Association staff or Community Patrol cannot respond to any type of criminal activity on your property

Call on friends for help If yoursquore going to be away a week or more ask a trusted friend to check on your house every day or two or better yet housesit while yoursquore gone

Set your lights on a timer Leaving your house unlit for days on end is a sure sign to burglars that itrsquos empty but so is keeping the lights on 247

Stop your mail and newspaper Nothing screams ldquonobodyrsquos homerdquo like a pile of newspapers strewn about your doorstep

Donrsquot leave the spare house key lying around That fake rock where you keep the extra house key isnrsquot as discrete as you think Whether you keep a spare under your welcome mat above the door frame or in a hide-a-key contraption chances are it will take the nefarious types five minutes flat to find it and gain easy entry to your house

Make a last-minute checklist Are all the windows and doors locked Stove and oven turned off How about all the faucets Are the electronics unplugged and valuables secured Take five minutes before you leave to ensure your house is vacation-ready Another run-through of the house may seem unnecessary if you did it earlier in the day but knowing yoursquove left your house as safe as possible will help you kick back and have a great vacation

By taking these few simple precautions you can actually enjoy your vacation with the peace of mind in knowing that your property is safe and secure

Aeration

Over the past few weeks you may have noticed the Caretaker Landscape crews aerating some of the turf areas throughout the community Many people have the

questionhellip Why do we aerate lawns

The simple answer is because it promotes a healthier more vigorous lawn while saving on irrigation The University of Arizona Cooperative Extension Center one of the leading programs of its type in the southwest says ldquoto maintain a healthy lawn through periods of stress the soil should have adequate water air and nutrients in the top 6 to 10 inches Soils that are hard and compacted impede root growth which prevents the grass from developing the deep root system that is essential to survive hot dry periodsrdquo

As you can see from the picture core aeration removes plugs of thatch and soil from the lawn literally opening up the ground so nutrients water and air can enter the soil Within 6 to 8 weeks new and deeper roots have grown leading to thicker lawns

The other benefit of aeration is it reduces the amount of water used thereby saving you money When soils are hard and compacted especially on slopes water is unable to seep into the ground and runs off creating puddles When this happens the typical solution is to increase the irrigation time so the bad areas can get more water With core aeration water more easily seeps into the soil so irrigation times can be reduced

Another exciting thing that the Caretaker Landscape crews have been up to is Road Side and Driver Safety Training One of our priorities as your landscaper is the safety of the residents and their guests at the Vistancia Community Check out the photos

Care To Know Tip The plugs created by core aeration can be removed or left in place to breakdown and reintroduce microorganisms leading to improved soil

frequent such as weekly or even daily Itrsquos the more frequently observed violations that can

have unwanted ramifications including fines As you are aware overnight street parking is prohibited in Vistancia As is the case with most rules the restriction on overnight street parking is a rule that many are divided over depending on your personal situation A look at the pros and cons of on street parking should provide an understanding as to why the rule was put into affect and is enforced as well as how abiding by the rule can positively impact your neighborhood

PROSbull Trashrecycle pick up is more effectivebull Street sweepers are more effectivebull Neighborhood appeal is cleanerbull Less street repairsmaintenancebull Better visibility for motorist (safety)

Positively Parking

bull Better visibility for pedestrians (safety)bull Vehicles are less accessible for vandalism burglary or theftbull Vehicles are less likely to be sideswiped or involved in some

other accidentbull No bottlenecking occurs on narrower roadsbull Driveways are not blocked by other carsbull Emergency Vehicles have better access

CONSbull Inconvenient if owning multiple vehicles and shuffling carsbull Inconvenient when guests stay overbull May get oil stains in driveway (instead of street)

By having the restriction from 12 AM ndash 5AM residents get in the habit of parking in the garagedriveway during the day which helps with the aforementioned favorable effects If needed a temporary variance may be provided Please contact the Association office if you have questions Lets all work together to keep the community safe clean and try to avoid any parking tickets

Pool Noodle Boat Racing By Vanessa Rodriguez Coppola of wwwSeeVanessaCraftcom

Keeping the kiddos entertained and not glued to electronics during the summer can be a tough task My kids and I recently crafted up a fun pool noodle boat racing boredom

buster game My 5 year old had a blast blowing his boat across the water and after the game was over my toddler turned the bib into a fun splash ldquotablerdquo

MATERIALSbull Pool Noodlesbull Pencilsbull Colorful Tapebull Foam Boardbull Scissorsbull Hot Glue Gunbull Large Plastic Bin

For more recipes and crafts visit wwwseevanessacraftcom You can also catch Vanessa on her local blog wwwwestvalleymomsblogcom written by Arizona moms for Arizona moms

DIRECTIONSStep 1 Cut pool noodles into 6 inch sections Cut those

sections in half as shown below A pair of sharp scissors will work

Step 2 Puncture a whole in the middle of the pool noodles with a pencil and leave the pencil inside

Step 3 Cut foam board into triangle shapesStep 4 Cover the foam triangle pieces with colorful tapeStep 5 Hot glue foam pieces to the pencils in the foamStep 6 Fill a large plastic bin with water You can add a few

drops of blue food coloring to the water if yoursquod likeStep 7 Place noodle boats in the water lined up on one side

and have the kids blow at their boat using a straw The first boat to the other side wins

In previous issues I have written about the importance of the proper sequence of motion in the golf swing While watching

golf throughout the week and weekend you see what happens when the sequence is

out of sync Specifically two things can happen neither are good results and here is the fix to get your swing together

Shot one - Over the top pull shot There are several reasons that a golfer may think they come over the top of a golf shot An over the top shot is a result of the club being swung from the top and passing by the ball prior to the body turning out of the way first If this occurs the swing path should be looked at first If the club is going back on the correct path the club should always be in front of your body If the club is behind you there is only one way to get the club back to the ball If the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is then the body is too slow The cure for this is not to slow the swing down Conversely you want to speed the body rotation up Feel the hips begin the downswing and the arms catch up to the lower body Now your swing is together

Shot two - The block out slice shot There are several reasons

Get It Together By Greg Ellis General Manager Trilogy Golf Club at Vistancia

that a golfer may think they block or slice a ball However a blocked out or slice shot is a result of the club lagging way behind the body on the forward swing Once again if the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is the body is too fast (This is what you see Tiger Woods do quite often when he misses to the right) The cure for this is not to slow the body down Conversely you want to speed up the arms Try to feel like the arms and lower body are swinging back to the ball at the same time Again your swing will be together

Just remember do not try to slow down a part of the swing and try to speed up the part of the swing that is slow

Have fun and remember if you need help with this tip or any other feel free to email me at gregellistrilogygolfclubcom or call me for a lesson at 623-328-5107

Tips for Beating the Summer Heat While Out on the Course By The Vistancia Information Center

gtgtgt bLACkSTONe COuNTry CLub

We are all too familiar with the 110+ degree temperatures this time of year but donrsquot let that prevent you from enjoying a round of golf A little bit of preparation can

go a long way when planning to spend extended time in the Arizona sun here are some helpful tips to keep you cool throughout the summer

Hydrate- Remember to drink at least eight 8 ounce glasses of fluid per day depending on an individualrsquos health needs drinking more water is recommended and wonrsquot hurt the 8x8 rule however is a good guideline to help keep up with fluid intake

Wear a Cap and Sunglasses- Bringing the right accessories with you on the course will help keep you cool and prevent harmful UV rays from directly reaching your skin

Early Tee Times- Temperatures in Arizona can be 10 to 15 degrees cooler in the earlier parts of the morning scheduling earlier team times before the sun comes up can make for a much more enjoyable golf experience

Take a Break- After the first nine holes take a break and enjoy a snack and cold beverage Getting out of the heat for a few minutes to cool down will help you get through to the eighteenth hole |

V istancia Residents I wanted to send out a quick reminder from the Peoria Police Department about locking your doors rolling up your windows and keeping valuables out

of your car Recently we have had several burglaries in the Vistancia community where items were removed from vehicles and in a couple instances residences were entered The homes were entered after the garage door opener was used to gain access to the house The reports show that the vehicles that were entered were all unsecured and no forced entry was made It is imperative that everyone lock your doors and remove any valuables from your vehicles The ldquoBad Guysrdquo look for opportunity and the path of least resistance If they walk into your driveway see itrsquos unlocked with wallets sporting equipment etc in your vehicle they will be in and out of your car with YOUR property in less than a minute

gtgtgt CITy Of peOrIA

gtgtgt pOLICe beAT

With that being said the crime rate in Vistancia remains low I believe it remains low because of the community involvement with everyone watching out for one another Letrsquos keep that going Talk with your neighbors remind everyone to lock their doors and keep their windows rolled up In addition please remember the Peoria Police Department offers a wide range of crime prevention programs such as Crime Shield Nextdoorcom and Crime Reports We can even get you started on organizing your own block watch Please visit our website (httpwwwpeoriaazgov) for additional information or call Lisa Mattox at 623-773-5011 to learn more about our programs

I hope everyone is enjoying their summer months and is staying cool

Aeration

Over the past few weeks you may have noticed the Caretaker Landscape crews aerating some of the turf areas throughout the community Many people have the

questionhellip Why do we aerate lawns

The simple answer is because it promotes a healthier more vigorous lawn while saving on irrigation The University of Arizona Cooperative Extension Center one of the leading programs of its type in the southwest says ldquoto maintain a healthy lawn through periods of stress the soil should have adequate water air and nutrients in the top 6 to 10 inches Soils that are hard and compacted impede root growth which prevents the grass from developing the deep root system that is essential to survive hot dry periodsrdquo

As you can see from the picture core aeration removes plugs of thatch and soil from the lawn literally opening up the ground so nutrients water and air can enter the soil Within 6 to 8 weeks new and deeper roots have grown leading to thicker lawns

The other benefit of aeration is it reduces the amount of water used thereby saving you money When soils are hard and compacted especially on slopes water is unable to seep into the ground and runs off creating puddles When this happens the typical solution is to increase the irrigation time so the bad areas can get more water With core aeration water more easily seeps into the soil so irrigation times can be reduced

Another exciting thing that the Caretaker Landscape crews have been up to is Road Side and Driver Safety Training One of our priorities as your landscaper is the safety of the residents and their guests at the Vistancia Community Check out the photos

Care To Know Tip The plugs created by core aeration can be removed or left in place to breakdown and reintroduce microorganisms leading to improved soil

In previous issues I have written about the importance of the proper sequence of motion in the golf swing While watching

golf throughout the week and weekend you see what happens when the sequence is

out of sync Specifically two things can happen neither are good results and here is the fix to get your swing together

Shot one - Over the top pull shot There are several reasons that a golfer may think they come over the top of a golf shot An over the top shot is a result of the club being swung from the top and passing by the ball prior to the body turning out of the way first If this occurs the swing path should be looked at first If the club is going back on the correct path the club should always be in front of your body If the club is behind you there is only one way to get the club back to the ball If the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is then the body is too slow The cure for this is not to slow the swing down Conversely you want to speed the body rotation up Feel the hips begin the downswing and the arms catch up to the lower body Now your swing is together

Shot two - The block out slice shot There are several reasons

Get It Together By Greg Ellis General Manager Trilogy Golf Club at Vistancia

that a golfer may think they block or slice a ball However a blocked out or slice shot is a result of the club lagging way behind the body on the forward swing Once again if the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is the body is too fast (This is what you see Tiger Woods do quite often when he misses to the right) The cure for this is not to slow the body down Conversely you want to speed up the arms Try to feel like the arms and lower body are swinging back to the ball at the same time Again your swing will be together

Just remember do not try to slow down a part of the swing and try to speed up the part of the swing that is slow

Have fun and remember if you need help with this tip or any other feel free to email me at gregellistrilogygolfclubcom or call me for a lesson at 623-328-5107

Tips for Beating the Summer Heat While Out on the Course By The Vistancia Information Center

gtgtgt bLACkSTONe COuNTry CLub

We are all too familiar with the 110+ degree temperatures this time of year but donrsquot let that prevent you from enjoying a round of golf A little bit of preparation can

go a long way when planning to spend extended time in the Arizona sun here are some helpful tips to keep you cool throughout the summer

Hydrate- Remember to drink at least eight 8 ounce glasses of fluid per day depending on an individualrsquos health needs drinking more water is recommended and wonrsquot hurt the 8x8 rule however is a good guideline to help keep up with fluid intake

Wear a Cap and Sunglasses- Bringing the right accessories with you on the course will help keep you cool and prevent harmful UV rays from directly reaching your skin

Early Tee Times- Temperatures in Arizona can be 10 to 15 degrees cooler in the earlier parts of the morning scheduling earlier team times before the sun comes up can make for a much more enjoyable golf experience

Take a Break- After the first nine holes take a break and enjoy a snack and cold beverage Getting out of the heat for a few minutes to cool down will help you get through to the eighteenth hole |

V istancia Residents I wanted to send out a quick reminder from the Peoria Police Department about locking your doors rolling up your windows and keeping valuables out

of your car Recently we have had several burglaries in the Vistancia community where items were removed from vehicles and in a couple instances residences were entered The homes were entered after the garage door opener was used to gain access to the house The reports show that the vehicles that were entered were all unsecured and no forced entry was made It is imperative that everyone lock your doors and remove any valuables from your vehicles The ldquoBad Guysrdquo look for opportunity and the path of least resistance If they walk into your driveway see itrsquos unlocked with wallets sporting equipment etc in your vehicle they will be in and out of your car with YOUR property in less than a minute

gtgtgt CITy Of peOrIA

gtgtgt pOLICe beAT

With that being said the crime rate in Vistancia remains low I believe it remains low because of the community involvement with everyone watching out for one another Letrsquos keep that going Talk with your neighbors remind everyone to lock their doors and keep their windows rolled up In addition please remember the Peoria Police Department offers a wide range of crime prevention programs such as Crime Shield Nextdoorcom and Crime Reports We can even get you started on organizing your own block watch Please visit our website (httpwwwpeoriaazgov) for additional information or call Lisa Mattox at 623-773-5011 to learn more about our programs

Aeration

Over the past few weeks you may have noticed the Caretaker Landscape crews aerating some of the turf areas throughout the community Many people have the

questionhellip Why do we aerate lawns

The simple answer is because it promotes a healthier more vigorous lawn while saving on irrigation The University of Arizona Cooperative Extension Center one of the leading programs of its type in the southwest says ldquoto maintain a healthy lawn through periods of stress the soil should have adequate water air and nutrients in the top 6 to 10 inches Soils that are hard and compacted impede root growth which prevents the grass from developing the deep root system that is essential to survive hot dry periodsrdquo

As you can see from the picture core aeration removes plugs of thatch and soil from the lawn literally opening up the ground so nutrients water and air can enter the soil Within 6 to 8 weeks new and deeper roots have grown leading to thicker lawns

The other benefit of aeration is it reduces the amount of water used thereby saving you money When soils are hard and compacted especially on slopes water is unable to seep into the ground and runs off creating puddles When this happens the typical solution is to increase the irrigation time so the bad areas can get more water With core aeration water more easily seeps into the soil so irrigation times can be reduced

Another exciting thing that the Caretaker Landscape crews have been up to is Road Side and Driver Safety Training One of our priorities as your landscaper is the safety of the residents and their guests at the Vistancia Community Check out the photos

Care To Know Tip The plugs created by core aeration can be removed or left in place to breakdown and reintroduce microorganisms leading to improved soil

frequent such as weekly or even daily Itrsquos the more frequently observed violations that can

have unwanted ramifications including fines As you are aware overnight street parking is prohibited in Vistancia As is the case with most rules the restriction on overnight street parking is a rule that many are divided over depending on your personal situation A look at the pros and cons of on street parking should provide an understanding as to why the rule was put into affect and is enforced as well as how abiding by the rule can positively impact your neighborhood

PROSbull Trashrecycle pick up is more effectivebull Street sweepers are more effectivebull Neighborhood appeal is cleanerbull Less street repairsmaintenancebull Better visibility for motorist (safety)

bull Better visibility for pedestrians (safety)bull Vehicles are less accessible for vandalism burglary or theftbull Vehicles are less likely to be sideswiped or involved in some

other accidentbull No bottlenecking occurs on narrower roadsbull Driveways are not blocked by other carsbull Emergency Vehicles have better access

CONSbull Inconvenient if owning multiple vehicles and shuffling carsbull Inconvenient when guests stay overbull May get oil stains in driveway (instead of street)

By having the restriction from 12 AM ndash 5AM residents get in the habit of parking in the garagedriveway during the day which helps with the aforementioned favorable effects If needed a temporary variance may be provided Please contact the Association office if you have questions Lets all work together to keep the community safe clean and try to avoid any parking tickets

In previous issues I have written about the importance of the proper sequence of motion in the golf swing While watching

golf throughout the week and weekend you see what happens when the sequence is

out of sync Specifically two things can happen neither are good results and here is the fix to get your swing together

Shot one - Over the top pull shot There are several reasons that a golfer may think they come over the top of a golf shot An over the top shot is a result of the club being swung from the top and passing by the ball prior to the body turning out of the way first If this occurs the swing path should be looked at first If the club is going back on the correct path the club should always be in front of your body If the club is behind you there is only one way to get the club back to the ball If the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is then the body is too slow The cure for this is not to slow the swing down Conversely you want to speed the body rotation up Feel the hips begin the downswing and the arms catch up to the lower body Now your swing is together

Shot two - The block out slice shot There are several reasons

Get It Together By Greg Ellis General Manager Trilogy Golf Club at Vistancia

that a golfer may think they block or slice a ball However a blocked out or slice shot is a result of the club lagging way behind the body on the forward swing Once again if the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is the body is too fast (This is what you see Tiger Woods do quite often when he misses to the right) The cure for this is not to slow the body down Conversely you want to speed up the arms Try to feel like the arms and lower body are swinging back to the ball at the same time Again your swing will be together

Just remember do not try to slow down a part of the swing and try to speed up the part of the swing that is slow

Tips for Beating the Summer Heat While Out on the Course By The Vistancia Information Center

gtgtgt bLACkSTONe COuNTry CLub

We are all too familiar with the 110+ degree temperatures this time of year but donrsquot let that prevent you from enjoying a round of golf A little bit of preparation can

go a long way when planning to spend extended time in the Arizona sun here are some helpful tips to keep you cool throughout the summer

Hydrate- Remember to drink at least eight 8 ounce glasses of fluid per day depending on an individualrsquos health needs drinking more water is recommended and wonrsquot hurt the 8x8 rule however is a good guideline to help keep up with fluid intake

Wear a Cap and Sunglasses- Bringing the right accessories with you on the course will help keep you cool and prevent harmful UV rays from directly reaching your skin

Early Tee Times- Temperatures in Arizona can be 10 to 15 degrees cooler in the earlier parts of the morning scheduling earlier team times before the sun comes up can make for a much more enjoyable golf experience

Take a Break- After the first nine holes take a break and enjoy a snack and cold beverage Getting out of the heat for a few minutes to cool down will help you get through to the eighteenth hole |

V istancia Residents I wanted to send out a quick reminder from the Peoria Police Department about locking your doors rolling up your windows and keeping valuables out

of your car Recently we have had several burglaries in the Vistancia community where items were removed from vehicles and in a couple instances residences were entered The homes were entered after the garage door opener was used to gain access to the house The reports show that the vehicles that were entered were all unsecured and no forced entry was made It is imperative that everyone lock your doors and remove any valuables from your vehicles The ldquoBad Guysrdquo look for opportunity and the path of least resistance If they walk into your driveway see itrsquos unlocked with wallets sporting equipment etc in your vehicle they will be in and out of your car with YOUR property in less than a minute

gtgtgt CITy Of peOrIA

gtgtgt pOLICe beAT

With that being said the crime rate in Vistancia remains low I believe it remains low because of the community involvement with everyone watching out for one another Letrsquos keep that going Talk with your neighbors remind everyone to lock their doors and keep their windows rolled up In addition please remember the Peoria Police Department offers a wide range of crime prevention programs such as Crime Shield Nextdoorcom and Crime Reports We can even get you started on organizing your own block watch Please visit our website (httpwwwpeoriaazgov) for additional information or call Lisa Mattox at 623-773-5011 to learn more about our programs

I hope everyone is enjoying their summer months and is staying cool

Aeration

Over the past few weeks you may have noticed the Caretaker Landscape crews aerating some of the turf areas throughout the community Many people have the

questionhellip Why do we aerate lawns

The simple answer is because it promotes a healthier more vigorous lawn while saving on irrigation The University of Arizona Cooperative Extension Center one of the leading programs of its type in the southwest says ldquoto maintain a healthy lawn through periods of stress the soil should have adequate water air and nutrients in the top 6 to 10 inches Soils that are hard and compacted impede root growth which prevents the grass from developing the deep root system that is essential to survive hot dry periodsrdquo

As you can see from the picture core aeration removes plugs of thatch and soil from the lawn literally opening up the ground so nutrients water and air can enter the soil Within 6 to 8 weeks new and deeper roots have grown leading to thicker lawns

The other benefit of aeration is it reduces the amount of water used thereby saving you money When soils are hard and compacted especially on slopes water is unable to seep into the ground and runs off creating puddles When this happens the typical solution is to increase the irrigation time so the bad areas can get more water With core aeration water more easily seeps into the soil so irrigation times can be reduced

Another exciting thing that the Caretaker Landscape crews have been up to is Road Side and Driver Safety Training One of our priorities as your landscaper is the safety of the residents and their guests at the Vistancia Community Check out the photos

Care To Know Tip The plugs created by core aeration can be removed or left in place to breakdown and reintroduce microorganisms leading to improved soil

Covenants violations are often observed on a cyclical basis Some violations are noted seasonally and some more

frequent such as weekly or even daily Itrsquos the more frequently observed violations that can

have unwanted ramifications including fines As you are aware overnight street parking is prohibited in Vistancia As is the case with most rules the restriction on overnight street parking is a rule that many are divided over depending on your personal situation A look at the pros and cons of on street parking should provide an understanding as to why the rule was put into affect and is enforced as well as how abiding by the rule can positively impact your neighborhood

PROSbull Trashrecycle pick up is more effectivebull Street sweepers are more effectivebull Neighborhood appeal is cleanerbull Less street repairsmaintenancebull Better visibility for motorist (safety)

gtgtgt COveNANTS COrNer

By Andrew Olson Covenants Coordinator

Positively Parking

bull Better visibility for pedestrians (safety)bull Vehicles are less accessible for vandalism burglary or theftbull Vehicles are less likely to be sideswiped or involved in some

other accidentbull No bottlenecking occurs on narrower roadsbull Driveways are not blocked by other carsbull Emergency Vehicles have better access

CONSbull Inconvenient if owning multiple vehicles and shuffling carsbull Inconvenient when guests stay overbull May get oil stains in driveway (instead of street)

By having the restriction from 12 AM ndash 5AM residents get in the habit of parking in the garagedriveway during the day which helps with the aforementioned favorable effects If needed a temporary variance may be provided Please contact the Association office if you have questions Lets all work together to keep the community safe clean and try to avoid any parking tickets

Pool Noodle Boat Racing By Vanessa Rodriguez Coppola of wwwSeeVanessaCraftcom

Keeping the kiddos entertained and not glued to electronics during the summer can be a tough task My kids and I recently crafted up a fun pool noodle boat racing boredom

buster game My 5 year old had a blast blowing his boat across the water and after the game was over my toddler turned the bib into a fun splash ldquotablerdquo

MATERIALSbull Pool Noodlesbull Pencilsbull Colorful Tapebull Foam Boardbull Scissorsbull Hot Glue Gunbull Large Plastic Bin

For more recipes and crafts visit wwwseevanessacraftcom You can also catch Vanessa on her local blog wwwwestvalleymomsblogcom written by Arizona moms for Arizona moms

DIRECTIONSStep 1 Cut pool noodles into 6 inch sections Cut those

sections in half as shown below A pair of sharp scissors will work

Step 2 Puncture a whole in the middle of the pool noodles with a pencil and leave the pencil inside

Step 3 Cut foam board into triangle shapesStep 4 Cover the foam triangle pieces with colorful tapeStep 5 Hot glue foam pieces to the pencils in the foamStep 6 Fill a large plastic bin with water You can add a few

drops of blue food coloring to the water if yoursquod likeStep 7 Place noodle boats in the water lined up on one side

and have the kids blow at their boat using a straw The first boat to the other side wins

In previous issues I have written about the importance of the proper sequence of motion in the golf swing While watching

golf throughout the week and weekend you see what happens when the sequence is

out of sync Specifically two things can happen neither are good results and here is the fix to get your swing together

Shot one - Over the top pull shot There are several reasons that a golfer may think they come over the top of a golf shot An over the top shot is a result of the club being swung from the top and passing by the ball prior to the body turning out of the way first If this occurs the swing path should be looked at first If the club is going back on the correct path the club should always be in front of your body If the club is behind you there is only one way to get the club back to the ball If the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is then the body is too slow The cure for this is not to slow the swing down Conversely you want to speed the body rotation up Feel the hips begin the downswing and the arms catch up to the lower body Now your swing is together

Shot two - The block out slice shot There are several reasons

Get It Together By Greg Ellis General Manager Trilogy Golf Club at Vistancia

that a golfer may think they block or slice a ball However a blocked out or slice shot is a result of the club lagging way behind the body on the forward swing Once again if the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is the body is too fast (This is what you see Tiger Woods do quite often when he misses to the right) The cure for this is not to slow the body down Conversely you want to speed up the arms Try to feel like the arms and lower body are swinging back to the ball at the same time Again your swing will be together

Just remember do not try to slow down a part of the swing and try to speed up the part of the swing that is slow

Have fun and remember if you need help with this tip or any other feel free to email me at gregellistrilogygolfclubcom or call me for a lesson at 623-328-5107

Tips for Beating the Summer Heat While Out on the Course By The Vistancia Information Center

gtgtgt bLACkSTONe COuNTry CLub

We are all too familiar with the 110+ degree temperatures this time of year but donrsquot let that prevent you from enjoying a round of golf A little bit of preparation can

go a long way when planning to spend extended time in the Arizona sun here are some helpful tips to keep you cool throughout the summer

Hydrate- Remember to drink at least eight 8 ounce glasses of fluid per day depending on an individualrsquos health needs drinking more water is recommended and wonrsquot hurt the 8x8 rule however is a good guideline to help keep up with fluid intake

Wear a Cap and Sunglasses- Bringing the right accessories with you on the course will help keep you cool and prevent harmful UV rays from directly reaching your skin

Early Tee Times- Temperatures in Arizona can be 10 to 15 degrees cooler in the earlier parts of the morning scheduling earlier team times before the sun comes up can make for a much more enjoyable golf experience

Take a Break- After the first nine holes take a break and enjoy a snack and cold beverage Getting out of the heat for a few minutes to cool down will help you get through to the eighteenth hole |

V istancia Residents I wanted to send out a quick reminder from the Peoria Police Department about locking your doors rolling up your windows and keeping valuables out

of your car Recently we have had several burglaries in the Vistancia community where items were removed from vehicles and in a couple instances residences were entered The homes were entered after the garage door opener was used to gain access to the house The reports show that the vehicles that were entered were all unsecured and no forced entry was made It is imperative that everyone lock your doors and remove any valuables from your vehicles The ldquoBad Guysrdquo look for opportunity and the path of least resistance If they walk into your driveway see itrsquos unlocked with wallets sporting equipment etc in your vehicle they will be in and out of your car with YOUR property in less than a minute

gtgtgt CITy Of peOrIA

gtgtgt pOLICe beAT

With that being said the crime rate in Vistancia remains low I believe it remains low because of the community involvement with everyone watching out for one another Letrsquos keep that going Talk with your neighbors remind everyone to lock their doors and keep their windows rolled up In addition please remember the Peoria Police Department offers a wide range of crime prevention programs such as Crime Shield Nextdoorcom and Crime Reports We can even get you started on organizing your own block watch Please visit our website (httpwwwpeoriaazgov) for additional information or call Lisa Mattox at 623-773-5011 to learn more about our programs

I hope everyone is enjoying their summer months and is staying cool

Aeration

Over the past few weeks you may have noticed the Caretaker Landscape crews aerating some of the turf areas throughout the community Many people have the

questionhellip Why do we aerate lawns

The simple answer is because it promotes a healthier more vigorous lawn while saving on irrigation The University of Arizona Cooperative Extension Center one of the leading programs of its type in the southwest says ldquoto maintain a healthy lawn through periods of stress the soil should have adequate water air and nutrients in the top 6 to 10 inches Soils that are hard and compacted impede root growth which prevents the grass from developing the deep root system that is essential to survive hot dry periodsrdquo

As you can see from the picture core aeration removes plugs of thatch and soil from the lawn literally opening up the ground so nutrients water and air can enter the soil Within 6 to 8 weeks new and deeper roots have grown leading to thicker lawns

The other benefit of aeration is it reduces the amount of water used thereby saving you money When soils are hard and compacted especially on slopes water is unable to seep into the ground and runs off creating puddles When this happens the typical solution is to increase the irrigation time so the bad areas can get more water With core aeration water more easily seeps into the soil so irrigation times can be reduced

Another exciting thing that the Caretaker Landscape crews have been up to is Road Side and Driver Safety Training One of our priorities as your landscaper is the safety of the residents and their guests at the Vistancia Community Check out the photos

Care To Know Tip The plugs created by core aeration can be removed or left in place to breakdown and reintroduce microorganisms leading to improved soil

frequent such as weekly or even daily Itrsquos the more frequently observed violations that can

have unwanted ramifications including fines As you are aware overnight street parking is prohibited in Vistancia As is the case with most rules the restriction on overnight street parking is a rule that many are divided over depending on your personal situation A look at the pros and cons of on street parking should provide an understanding as to why the rule was put into affect and is enforced as well as how abiding by the rule can positively impact your neighborhood

bull Better visibility for pedestrians (safety)bull Vehicles are less accessible for vandalism burglary or theftbull Vehicles are less likely to be sideswiped or involved in some

other accidentbull No bottlenecking occurs on narrower roadsbull Driveways are not blocked by other carsbull Emergency Vehicles have better access

CONSbull Inconvenient if owning multiple vehicles and shuffling carsbull Inconvenient when guests stay overbull May get oil stains in driveway (instead of street)

In previous issues I have written about the importance of the proper sequence of motion in the golf swing While watching

golf throughout the week and weekend you see what happens when the sequence is

out of sync Specifically two things can happen neither are good results and here is the fix to get your swing together

Shot one - Over the top pull shot There are several reasons that a golfer may think they come over the top of a golf shot An over the top shot is a result of the club being swung from the top and passing by the ball prior to the body turning out of the way first If this occurs the swing path should be looked at first If the club is going back on the correct path the club should always be in front of your body If the club is behind you there is only one way to get the club back to the ball If the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is then the body is too slow The cure for this is not to slow the swing down Conversely you want to speed the body rotation up Feel the hips begin the downswing and the arms catch up to the lower body Now your swing is together

Shot two - The block out slice shot There are several reasons

Get It Together By Greg Ellis General Manager Trilogy Golf Club at Vistancia

that a golfer may think they block or slice a ball However a blocked out or slice shot is a result of the club lagging way behind the body on the forward swing Once again if the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is the body is too fast (This is what you see Tiger Woods do quite often when he misses to the right) The cure for this is not to slow the body down Conversely you want to speed up the arms Try to feel like the arms and lower body are swinging back to the ball at the same time Again your swing will be together

Just remember do not try to slow down a part of the swing and try to speed up the part of the swing that is slow

Have fun and remember if you need help with this tip or any other feel free to email me at gregellistrilogygolfclubcom or call me for a lesson at 623-328-5107

Tips for Beating the Summer Heat While Out on the Course By The Vistancia Information Center

gtgtgt bLACkSTONe COuNTry CLub

We are all too familiar with the 110+ degree temperatures this time of year but donrsquot let that prevent you from enjoying a round of golf A little bit of preparation can

go a long way when planning to spend extended time in the Arizona sun here are some helpful tips to keep you cool throughout the summer

Hydrate- Remember to drink at least eight 8 ounce glasses of fluid per day depending on an individualrsquos health needs drinking more water is recommended and wonrsquot hurt the 8x8 rule however is a good guideline to help keep up with fluid intake

Wear a Cap and Sunglasses- Bringing the right accessories with you on the course will help keep you cool and prevent harmful UV rays from directly reaching your skin

Early Tee Times- Temperatures in Arizona can be 10 to 15 degrees cooler in the earlier parts of the morning scheduling earlier team times before the sun comes up can make for a much more enjoyable golf experience

Take a Break- After the first nine holes take a break and enjoy a snack and cold beverage Getting out of the heat for a few minutes to cool down will help you get through to the eighteenth hole |

V istancia Residents I wanted to send out a quick reminder from the Peoria Police Department about locking your doors rolling up your windows and keeping valuables out

of your car Recently we have had several burglaries in the Vistancia community where items were removed from vehicles and in a couple instances residences were entered The homes were entered after the garage door opener was used to gain access to the house The reports show that the vehicles that were entered were all unsecured and no forced entry was made It is imperative that everyone lock your doors and remove any valuables from your vehicles The ldquoBad Guysrdquo look for opportunity and the path of least resistance If they walk into your driveway see itrsquos unlocked with wallets sporting equipment etc in your vehicle they will be in and out of your car with YOUR property in less than a minute

gtgtgt CITy Of peOrIA

gtgtgt pOLICe beAT

With that being said the crime rate in Vistancia remains low I believe it remains low because of the community involvement with everyone watching out for one another Letrsquos keep that going Talk with your neighbors remind everyone to lock their doors and keep their windows rolled up In addition please remember the Peoria Police Department offers a wide range of crime prevention programs such as Crime Shield Nextdoorcom and Crime Reports We can even get you started on organizing your own block watch Please visit our website (httpwwwpeoriaazgov) for additional information or call Lisa Mattox at 623-773-5011 to learn more about our programs

Covenants violations are often observed on a cyclical basis Some violations are noted seasonally and some more

frequent such as weekly or even daily Itrsquos the more frequently observed violations that can

have unwanted ramifications including fines As you are aware overnight street parking is prohibited in Vistancia As is the case with most rules the restriction on overnight street parking is a rule that many are divided over depending on your personal situation A look at the pros and cons of on street parking should provide an understanding as to why the rule was put into affect and is enforced as well as how abiding by the rule can positively impact your neighborhood

PROSbull Trashrecycle pick up is more effectivebull Street sweepers are more effectivebull Neighborhood appeal is cleanerbull Less street repairsmaintenancebull Better visibility for motorist (safety)

gtgtgt COveNANTS COrNer

By Andrew Olson Covenants Coordinator

Positively Parking

bull Better visibility for pedestrians (safety)bull Vehicles are less accessible for vandalism burglary or theftbull Vehicles are less likely to be sideswiped or involved in some

other accidentbull No bottlenecking occurs on narrower roadsbull Driveways are not blocked by other carsbull Emergency Vehicles have better access

CONSbull Inconvenient if owning multiple vehicles and shuffling carsbull Inconvenient when guests stay overbull May get oil stains in driveway (instead of street)

By having the restriction from 12 AM ndash 5AM residents get in the habit of parking in the garagedriveway during the day which helps with the aforementioned favorable effects If needed a temporary variance may be provided Please contact the Association office if you have questions Lets all work together to keep the community safe clean and try to avoid any parking tickets

In previous issues I have written about the importance of the proper sequence of motion in the golf swing While watching

golf throughout the week and weekend you see what happens when the sequence is

out of sync Specifically two things can happen neither are good results and here is the fix to get your swing together

Shot one - Over the top pull shot There are several reasons that a golfer may think they come over the top of a golf shot An over the top shot is a result of the club being swung from the top and passing by the ball prior to the body turning out of the way first If this occurs the swing path should be looked at first If the club is going back on the correct path the club should always be in front of your body If the club is behind you there is only one way to get the club back to the ball If the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is then the body is too slow The cure for this is not to slow the swing down Conversely you want to speed the body rotation up Feel the hips begin the downswing and the arms catch up to the lower body Now your swing is together

Shot two - The block out slice shot There are several reasons

Get It Together By Greg Ellis General Manager Trilogy Golf Club at Vistancia

that a golfer may think they block or slice a ball However a blocked out or slice shot is a result of the club lagging way behind the body on the forward swing Once again if the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is the body is too fast (This is what you see Tiger Woods do quite often when he misses to the right) The cure for this is not to slow the body down Conversely you want to speed up the arms Try to feel like the arms and lower body are swinging back to the ball at the same time Again your swing will be together

Just remember do not try to slow down a part of the swing and try to speed up the part of the swing that is slow

Have fun and remember if you need help with this tip or any other feel free to email me at gregellistrilogygolfclubcom or call me for a lesson at 623-328-5107

Tips for Beating the Summer Heat While Out on the Course By The Vistancia Information Center

gtgtgt bLACkSTONe COuNTry CLub

We are all too familiar with the 110+ degree temperatures this time of year but donrsquot let that prevent you from enjoying a round of golf A little bit of preparation can

go a long way when planning to spend extended time in the Arizona sun here are some helpful tips to keep you cool throughout the summer

Hydrate- Remember to drink at least eight 8 ounce glasses of fluid per day depending on an individualrsquos health needs drinking more water is recommended and wonrsquot hurt the 8x8 rule however is a good guideline to help keep up with fluid intake

Wear a Cap and Sunglasses- Bringing the right accessories with you on the course will help keep you cool and prevent harmful UV rays from directly reaching your skin

Early Tee Times- Temperatures in Arizona can be 10 to 15 degrees cooler in the earlier parts of the morning scheduling earlier team times before the sun comes up can make for a much more enjoyable golf experience

Take a Break- After the first nine holes take a break and enjoy a snack and cold beverage Getting out of the heat for a few minutes to cool down will help you get through to the eighteenth hole |

V istancia Residents I wanted to send out a quick reminder from the Peoria Police Department about locking your doors rolling up your windows and keeping valuables out

of your car Recently we have had several burglaries in the Vistancia community where items were removed from vehicles and in a couple instances residences were entered The homes were entered after the garage door opener was used to gain access to the house The reports show that the vehicles that were entered were all unsecured and no forced entry was made It is imperative that everyone lock your doors and remove any valuables from your vehicles The ldquoBad Guysrdquo look for opportunity and the path of least resistance If they walk into your driveway see itrsquos unlocked with wallets sporting equipment etc in your vehicle they will be in and out of your car with YOUR property in less than a minute

With that being said the crime rate in Vistancia remains low I believe it remains low because of the community involvement with everyone watching out for one another Letrsquos keep that going Talk with your neighbors remind everyone to lock their doors and keep their windows rolled up In addition please remember the Peoria Police Department offers a wide range of crime prevention programs such as Crime Shield Nextdoorcom and Crime Reports We can even get you started on organizing your own block watch Please visit our website (httpwwwpeoriaazgov) for additional information or call Lisa Mattox at 623-773-5011 to learn more about our programs

I hope everyone is enjoying their summer months and is staying cool

Covenants violations are often observed on a cyclical basis Some violations are noted seasonally and some more

frequent such as weekly or even daily Itrsquos the more frequently observed violations that can

have unwanted ramifications including fines As you are aware overnight street parking is prohibited in Vistancia As is the case with most rules the restriction on overnight street parking is a rule that many are divided over depending on your personal situation A look at the pros and cons of on street parking should provide an understanding as to why the rule was put into affect and is enforced as well as how abiding by the rule can positively impact your neighborhood

PROSbull Trashrecycle pick up is more effectivebull Street sweepers are more effectivebull Neighborhood appeal is cleanerbull Less street repairsmaintenancebull Better visibility for motorist (safety)

gtgtgt COveNANTS COrNer

By Andrew Olson Covenants Coordinator

Positively Parking

bull Better visibility for pedestrians (safety)bull Vehicles are less accessible for vandalism burglary or theftbull Vehicles are less likely to be sideswiped or involved in some

other accidentbull No bottlenecking occurs on narrower roadsbull Driveways are not blocked by other carsbull Emergency Vehicles have better access

CONSbull Inconvenient if owning multiple vehicles and shuffling carsbull Inconvenient when guests stay overbull May get oil stains in driveway (instead of street)

By having the restriction from 12 AM ndash 5AM residents get in the habit of parking in the garagedriveway during the day which helps with the aforementioned favorable effects If needed a temporary variance may be provided Please contact the Association office if you have questions Lets all work together to keep the community safe clean and try to avoid any parking tickets

Pool Noodle Boat Racing By Vanessa Rodriguez Coppola of wwwSeeVanessaCraftcom

Keeping the kiddos entertained and not glued to electronics during the summer can be a tough task My kids and I recently crafted up a fun pool noodle boat racing boredom

buster game My 5 year old had a blast blowing his boat across the water and after the game was over my toddler turned the bib into a fun splash ldquotablerdquo

MATERIALSbull Pool Noodlesbull Pencilsbull Colorful Tapebull Foam Boardbull Scissorsbull Hot Glue Gunbull Large Plastic Bin

For more recipes and crafts visit wwwseevanessacraftcom You can also catch Vanessa on her local blog wwwwestvalleymomsblogcom written by Arizona moms for Arizona moms

DIRECTIONSStep 1 Cut pool noodles into 6 inch sections Cut those

sections in half as shown below A pair of sharp scissors will work

Step 2 Puncture a whole in the middle of the pool noodles with a pencil and leave the pencil inside

Step 3 Cut foam board into triangle shapesStep 4 Cover the foam triangle pieces with colorful tapeStep 5 Hot glue foam pieces to the pencils in the foamStep 6 Fill a large plastic bin with water You can add a few

drops of blue food coloring to the water if yoursquod likeStep 7 Place noodle boats in the water lined up on one side

and have the kids blow at their boat using a straw The first boat to the other side wins

In previous issues I have written about the importance of the proper sequence of motion in the golf swing While watching

golf throughout the week and weekend you see what happens when the sequence is

out of sync Specifically two things can happen neither are good results and here is the fix to get your swing together

Shot one - Over the top pull shot There are several reasons that a golfer may think they come over the top of a golf shot An over the top shot is a result of the club being swung from the top and passing by the ball prior to the body turning out of the way first If this occurs the swing path should be looked at first If the club is going back on the correct path the club should always be in front of your body If the club is behind you there is only one way to get the club back to the ball If the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is then the body is too slow The cure for this is not to slow the swing down Conversely you want to speed the body rotation up Feel the hips begin the downswing and the arms catch up to the lower body Now your swing is together

Shot two - The block out slice shot There are several reasons

Get It Together By Greg Ellis General Manager Trilogy Golf Club at Vistancia

that a golfer may think they block or slice a ball However a blocked out or slice shot is a result of the club lagging way behind the body on the forward swing Once again if the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is the body is too fast (This is what you see Tiger Woods do quite often when he misses to the right) The cure for this is not to slow the body down Conversely you want to speed up the arms Try to feel like the arms and lower body are swinging back to the ball at the same time Again your swing will be together

Just remember do not try to slow down a part of the swing and try to speed up the part of the swing that is slow

Tips for Beating the Summer Heat While Out on the Course By The Vistancia Information Center

gtgtgt bLACkSTONe COuNTry CLub

We are all too familiar with the 110+ degree temperatures this time of year but donrsquot let that prevent you from enjoying a round of golf A little bit of preparation can

go a long way when planning to spend extended time in the Arizona sun here are some helpful tips to keep you cool throughout the summer

Hydrate- Remember to drink at least eight 8 ounce glasses of fluid per day depending on an individualrsquos health needs drinking more water is recommended and wonrsquot hurt the 8x8 rule however is a good guideline to help keep up with fluid intake

Wear a Cap and Sunglasses- Bringing the right accessories with you on the course will help keep you cool and prevent harmful UV rays from directly reaching your skin

Early Tee Times- Temperatures in Arizona can be 10 to 15 degrees cooler in the earlier parts of the morning scheduling earlier team times before the sun comes up can make for a much more enjoyable golf experience

Take a Break- After the first nine holes take a break and enjoy a snack and cold beverage Getting out of the heat for a few minutes to cool down will help you get through to the eighteenth hole |

V istancia Residents I wanted to send out a quick reminder from the Peoria Police Department about locking your doors rolling up your windows and keeping valuables out

of your car Recently we have had several burglaries in the Vistancia community where items were removed from vehicles and in a couple instances residences were entered The homes were entered after the garage door opener was used to gain access to the house The reports show that the vehicles that were entered were all unsecured and no forced entry was made It is imperative that everyone lock your doors and remove any valuables from your vehicles The ldquoBad Guysrdquo look for opportunity and the path of least resistance If they walk into your driveway see itrsquos unlocked with wallets sporting equipment etc in your vehicle they will be in and out of your car with YOUR property in less than a minute

gtgtgt CITy Of peOrIA

gtgtgt pOLICe beAT

With that being said the crime rate in Vistancia remains low I believe it remains low because of the community involvement with everyone watching out for one another Letrsquos keep that going Talk with your neighbors remind everyone to lock their doors and keep their windows rolled up In addition please remember the Peoria Police Department offers a wide range of crime prevention programs such as Crime Shield Nextdoorcom and Crime Reports We can even get you started on organizing your own block watch Please visit our website (httpwwwpeoriaazgov) for additional information or call Lisa Mattox at 623-773-5011 to learn more about our programs

I hope everyone is enjoying their summer months and is staying cool

Pool Noodle Boat Racing By Vanessa Rodriguez Coppola of wwwSeeVanessaCraftcom

Keeping the kiddos entertained and not glued to electronics during the summer can be a tough task My kids and I recently crafted up a fun pool noodle boat racing boredom

buster game My 5 year old had a blast blowing his boat across the water and after the game was over my toddler turned the bib into a fun splash ldquotablerdquo

MATERIALSbull Pool Noodlesbull Pencilsbull Colorful Tapebull Foam Boardbull Scissorsbull Hot Glue Gunbull Large Plastic Bin

For more recipes and crafts visit wwwseevanessacraftcom You can also catch Vanessa on her local blog wwwwestvalleymomsblogcom written by Arizona moms for Arizona moms

DIRECTIONSStep 1 Cut pool noodles into 6 inch sections Cut those

sections in half as shown below A pair of sharp scissors will work

Step 2 Puncture a whole in the middle of the pool noodles with a pencil and leave the pencil inside

Step 3 Cut foam board into triangle shapesStep 4 Cover the foam triangle pieces with colorful tapeStep 5 Hot glue foam pieces to the pencils in the foamStep 6 Fill a large plastic bin with water You can add a few

drops of blue food coloring to the water if yoursquod likeStep 7 Place noodle boats in the water lined up on one side

and have the kids blow at their boat using a straw The first boat to the other side wins

In previous issues I have written about the importance of the proper sequence of motion in the golf swing While watching

golf throughout the week and weekend you see what happens when the sequence is

out of sync Specifically two things can happen neither are good results and here is the fix to get your swing together

Shot one - Over the top pull shot There are several reasons that a golfer may think they come over the top of a golf shot An over the top shot is a result of the club being swung from the top and passing by the ball prior to the body turning out of the way first If this occurs the swing path should be looked at first If the club is going back on the correct path the club should always be in front of your body If the club is behind you there is only one way to get the club back to the ball If the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is then the body is too slow The cure for this is not to slow the swing down Conversely you want to speed the body rotation up Feel the hips begin the downswing and the arms catch up to the lower body Now your swing is together

Shot two - The block out slice shot There are several reasons

Get It Together By Greg Ellis General Manager Trilogy Golf Club at Vistancia

that a golfer may think they block or slice a ball However a blocked out or slice shot is a result of the club lagging way behind the body on the forward swing Once again if the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is the body is too fast (This is what you see Tiger Woods do quite often when he misses to the right) The cure for this is not to slow the body down Conversely you want to speed up the arms Try to feel like the arms and lower body are swinging back to the ball at the same time Again your swing will be together

Just remember do not try to slow down a part of the swing and try to speed up the part of the swing that is slow

Have fun and remember if you need help with this tip or any other feel free to email me at gregellistrilogygolfclubcom or call me for a lesson at 623-328-5107

Tips for Beating the Summer Heat While Out on the Course By The Vistancia Information Center

gtgtgt bLACkSTONe COuNTry CLub

We are all too familiar with the 110+ degree temperatures this time of year but donrsquot let that prevent you from enjoying a round of golf A little bit of preparation can

go a long way when planning to spend extended time in the Arizona sun here are some helpful tips to keep you cool throughout the summer

Hydrate- Remember to drink at least eight 8 ounce glasses of fluid per day depending on an individualrsquos health needs drinking more water is recommended and wonrsquot hurt the 8x8 rule however is a good guideline to help keep up with fluid intake

Wear a Cap and Sunglasses- Bringing the right accessories with you on the course will help keep you cool and prevent harmful UV rays from directly reaching your skin

Early Tee Times- Temperatures in Arizona can be 10 to 15 degrees cooler in the earlier parts of the morning scheduling earlier team times before the sun comes up can make for a much more enjoyable golf experience

Take a Break- After the first nine holes take a break and enjoy a snack and cold beverage Getting out of the heat for a few minutes to cool down will help you get through to the eighteenth hole |

V istancia Residents I wanted to send out a quick reminder from the Peoria Police Department about locking your doors rolling up your windows and keeping valuables out

of your car Recently we have had several burglaries in the Vistancia community where items were removed from vehicles and in a couple instances residences were entered The homes were entered after the garage door opener was used to gain access to the house The reports show that the vehicles that were entered were all unsecured and no forced entry was made It is imperative that everyone lock your doors and remove any valuables from your vehicles The ldquoBad Guysrdquo look for opportunity and the path of least resistance If they walk into your driveway see itrsquos unlocked with wallets sporting equipment etc in your vehicle they will be in and out of your car with YOUR property in less than a minute

gtgtgt CITy Of peOrIA

gtgtgt pOLICe beAT

With that being said the crime rate in Vistancia remains low I believe it remains low because of the community involvement with everyone watching out for one another Letrsquos keep that going Talk with your neighbors remind everyone to lock their doors and keep their windows rolled up In addition please remember the Peoria Police Department offers a wide range of crime prevention programs such as Crime Shield Nextdoorcom and Crime Reports We can even get you started on organizing your own block watch Please visit our website (httpwwwpeoriaazgov) for additional information or call Lisa Mattox at 623-773-5011 to learn more about our programs

I hope everyone is enjoying their summer months and is staying cool

Keeping the kiddos entertained and not glued to electronics during the summer can be a tough task My kids and I recently crafted up a fun pool noodle boat racing boredom

buster game My 5 year old had a blast blowing his boat across the water and after the game was over my toddler turned the bib into a fun splash ldquotablerdquo

MATERIALSbull Pool Noodlesbull Pencilsbull Colorful Tapebull Foam Boardbull Scissorsbull Hot Glue Gunbull Large Plastic Bin

DIRECTIONSStep 1 Cut pool noodles into 6 inch sections Cut those

sections in half as shown below A pair of sharp scissors will work

Step 2 Puncture a whole in the middle of the pool noodles with a pencil and leave the pencil inside

Step 3 Cut foam board into triangle shapesStep 4 Cover the foam triangle pieces with colorful tapeStep 5 Hot glue foam pieces to the pencils in the foamStep 6 Fill a large plastic bin with water You can add a few

drops of blue food coloring to the water if yoursquod likeStep 7 Place noodle boats in the water lined up on one side

and have the kids blow at their boat using a straw The first boat to the other side wins

In previous issues I have written about the importance of the proper sequence of motion in the golf swing While watching

golf throughout the week and weekend you see what happens when the sequence is

out of sync Specifically two things can happen neither are good results and here is the fix to get your swing together

Shot one - Over the top pull shot There are several reasons that a golfer may think they come over the top of a golf shot An over the top shot is a result of the club being swung from the top and passing by the ball prior to the body turning out of the way first If this occurs the swing path should be looked at first If the club is going back on the correct path the club should always be in front of your body If the club is behind you there is only one way to get the club back to the ball If the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is then the body is too slow The cure for this is not to slow the swing down Conversely you want to speed the body rotation up Feel the hips begin the downswing and the arms catch up to the lower body Now your swing is together

Shot two - The block out slice shot There are several reasons

Get It Together By Greg Ellis General Manager Trilogy Golf Club at Vistancia

that a golfer may think they block or slice a ball However a blocked out or slice shot is a result of the club lagging way behind the body on the forward swing Once again if the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is the body is too fast (This is what you see Tiger Woods do quite often when he misses to the right) The cure for this is not to slow the body down Conversely you want to speed up the arms Try to feel like the arms and lower body are swinging back to the ball at the same time Again your swing will be together

Just remember do not try to slow down a part of the swing and try to speed up the part of the swing that is slow

Have fun and remember if you need help with this tip or any other feel free to email me at gregellistrilogygolfclubcom or call me for a lesson at 623-328-5107

Tips for Beating the Summer Heat While Out on the Course By The Vistancia Information Center

gtgtgt bLACkSTONe COuNTry CLub

We are all too familiar with the 110+ degree temperatures this time of year but donrsquot let that prevent you from enjoying a round of golf A little bit of preparation can

go a long way when planning to spend extended time in the Arizona sun here are some helpful tips to keep you cool throughout the summer

Hydrate- Remember to drink at least eight 8 ounce glasses of fluid per day depending on an individualrsquos health needs drinking more water is recommended and wonrsquot hurt the 8x8 rule however is a good guideline to help keep up with fluid intake

Wear a Cap and Sunglasses- Bringing the right accessories with you on the course will help keep you cool and prevent harmful UV rays from directly reaching your skin

Early Tee Times- Temperatures in Arizona can be 10 to 15 degrees cooler in the earlier parts of the morning scheduling earlier team times before the sun comes up can make for a much more enjoyable golf experience

Take a Break- After the first nine holes take a break and enjoy a snack and cold beverage Getting out of the heat for a few minutes to cool down will help you get through to the eighteenth hole |

V istancia Residents I wanted to send out a quick reminder from the Peoria Police Department about locking your doors rolling up your windows and keeping valuables out

of your car Recently we have had several burglaries in the Vistancia community where items were removed from vehicles and in a couple instances residences were entered The homes were entered after the garage door opener was used to gain access to the house The reports show that the vehicles that were entered were all unsecured and no forced entry was made It is imperative that everyone lock your doors and remove any valuables from your vehicles The ldquoBad Guysrdquo look for opportunity and the path of least resistance If they walk into your driveway see itrsquos unlocked with wallets sporting equipment etc in your vehicle they will be in and out of your car with YOUR property in less than a minute

gtgtgt CITy Of peOrIA

gtgtgt pOLICe beAT

With that being said the crime rate in Vistancia remains low I believe it remains low because of the community involvement with everyone watching out for one another Letrsquos keep that going Talk with your neighbors remind everyone to lock their doors and keep their windows rolled up In addition please remember the Peoria Police Department offers a wide range of crime prevention programs such as Crime Shield Nextdoorcom and Crime Reports We can even get you started on organizing your own block watch Please visit our website (httpwwwpeoriaazgov) for additional information or call Lisa Mattox at 623-773-5011 to learn more about our programs

I hope everyone is enjoying their summer months and is staying cool

Pool Noodle Boat Racing By Vanessa Rodriguez Coppola of wwwSeeVanessaCraftcom

Keeping the kiddos entertained and not glued to electronics during the summer can be a tough task My kids and I recently crafted up a fun pool noodle boat racing boredom

buster game My 5 year old had a blast blowing his boat across the water and after the game was over my toddler turned the bib into a fun splash ldquotablerdquo

MATERIALSbull Pool Noodlesbull Pencilsbull Colorful Tapebull Foam Boardbull Scissorsbull Hot Glue Gunbull Large Plastic Bin

For more recipes and crafts visit wwwseevanessacraftcom You can also catch Vanessa on her local blog wwwwestvalleymomsblogcom written by Arizona moms for Arizona moms

DIRECTIONSStep 1 Cut pool noodles into 6 inch sections Cut those

sections in half as shown below A pair of sharp scissors will work

Step 2 Puncture a whole in the middle of the pool noodles with a pencil and leave the pencil inside

Step 3 Cut foam board into triangle shapesStep 4 Cover the foam triangle pieces with colorful tapeStep 5 Hot glue foam pieces to the pencils in the foamStep 6 Fill a large plastic bin with water You can add a few

drops of blue food coloring to the water if yoursquod likeStep 7 Place noodle boats in the water lined up on one side

and have the kids blow at their boat using a straw The first boat to the other side wins

In previous issues I have written about the importance of the proper sequence of motion in the golf swing While watching

golf throughout the week and weekend you see what happens when the sequence is

out of sync Specifically two things can happen neither are good results and here is the fix to get your swing together

Shot one - Over the top pull shot There are several reasons that a golfer may think they come over the top of a golf shot An over the top shot is a result of the club being swung from the top and passing by the ball prior to the body turning out of the way first If this occurs the swing path should be looked at first If the club is going back on the correct path the club should always be in front of your body If the club is behind you there is only one way to get the club back to the ball If the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is then the body is too slow The cure for this is not to slow the swing down Conversely you want to speed the body rotation up Feel the hips begin the downswing and the arms catch up to the lower body Now your swing is together

Shot two - The block out slice shot There are several reasons

Get It Together By Greg Ellis General Manager Trilogy Golf Club at Vistancia

that a golfer may think they block or slice a ball However a blocked out or slice shot is a result of the club lagging way behind the body on the forward swing Once again if the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is the body is too fast (This is what you see Tiger Woods do quite often when he misses to the right) The cure for this is not to slow the body down Conversely you want to speed up the arms Try to feel like the arms and lower body are swinging back to the ball at the same time Again your swing will be together

Just remember do not try to slow down a part of the swing and try to speed up the part of the swing that is slow

Have fun and remember if you need help with this tip or any other feel free to email me at gregellistrilogygolfclubcom or call me for a lesson at 623-328-5107

Tips for Beating the Summer Heat While Out on the Course By The Vistancia Information Center

gtgtgt bLACkSTONe COuNTry CLub

We are all too familiar with the 110+ degree temperatures this time of year but donrsquot let that prevent you from enjoying a round of golf A little bit of preparation can

go a long way when planning to spend extended time in the Arizona sun here are some helpful tips to keep you cool throughout the summer

Hydrate- Remember to drink at least eight 8 ounce glasses of fluid per day depending on an individualrsquos health needs drinking more water is recommended and wonrsquot hurt the 8x8 rule however is a good guideline to help keep up with fluid intake

Wear a Cap and Sunglasses- Bringing the right accessories with you on the course will help keep you cool and prevent harmful UV rays from directly reaching your skin

Early Tee Times- Temperatures in Arizona can be 10 to 15 degrees cooler in the earlier parts of the morning scheduling earlier team times before the sun comes up can make for a much more enjoyable golf experience

Take a Break- After the first nine holes take a break and enjoy a snack and cold beverage Getting out of the heat for a few minutes to cool down will help you get through to the eighteenth hole |

V istancia Residents I wanted to send out a quick reminder from the Peoria Police Department about locking your doors rolling up your windows and keeping valuables out

of your car Recently we have had several burglaries in the Vistancia community where items were removed from vehicles and in a couple instances residences were entered The homes were entered after the garage door opener was used to gain access to the house The reports show that the vehicles that were entered were all unsecured and no forced entry was made It is imperative that everyone lock your doors and remove any valuables from your vehicles The ldquoBad Guysrdquo look for opportunity and the path of least resistance If they walk into your driveway see itrsquos unlocked with wallets sporting equipment etc in your vehicle they will be in and out of your car with YOUR property in less than a minute

gtgtgt CITy Of peOrIA

gtgtgt pOLICe beAT

With that being said the crime rate in Vistancia remains low I believe it remains low because of the community involvement with everyone watching out for one another Letrsquos keep that going Talk with your neighbors remind everyone to lock their doors and keep their windows rolled up In addition please remember the Peoria Police Department offers a wide range of crime prevention programs such as Crime Shield Nextdoorcom and Crime Reports We can even get you started on organizing your own block watch Please visit our website (httpwwwpeoriaazgov) for additional information or call Lisa Mattox at 623-773-5011 to learn more about our programs

I hope everyone is enjoying their summer months and is staying cool

Pool Noodle Boat Racing By Vanessa Rodriguez Coppola of wwwSeeVanessaCraftcom

Keeping the kiddos entertained and not glued to electronics during the summer can be a tough task My kids and I recently crafted up a fun pool noodle boat racing boredom

buster game My 5 year old had a blast blowing his boat across the water and after the game was over my toddler turned the bib into a fun splash ldquotablerdquo

MATERIALSbull Pool Noodlesbull Pencilsbull Colorful Tapebull Foam Boardbull Scissorsbull Hot Glue Gunbull Large Plastic Bin

For more recipes and crafts visit wwwseevanessacraftcom You can also catch Vanessa on her local blog wwwwestvalleymomsblogcom written by Arizona moms for Arizona moms

DIRECTIONSStep 1 Cut pool noodles into 6 inch sections Cut those

sections in half as shown below A pair of sharp scissors will work

Step 2 Puncture a whole in the middle of the pool noodles with a pencil and leave the pencil inside

Step 3 Cut foam board into triangle shapesStep 4 Cover the foam triangle pieces with colorful tapeStep 5 Hot glue foam pieces to the pencils in the foamStep 6 Fill a large plastic bin with water You can add a few

drops of blue food coloring to the water if yoursquod likeStep 7 Place noodle boats in the water lined up on one side

and have the kids blow at their boat using a straw The first boat to the other side wins

In previous issues I have written about the importance of the proper sequence of motion in the golf swing While watching

golf throughout the week and weekend you see what happens when the sequence is

out of sync Specifically two things can happen neither are good results and here is the fix to get your swing together

Shot one - Over the top pull shot There are several reasons that a golfer may think they come over the top of a golf shot An over the top shot is a result of the club being swung from the top and passing by the ball prior to the body turning out of the way first If this occurs the swing path should be looked at first If the club is going back on the correct path the club should always be in front of your body If the club is behind you there is only one way to get the club back to the ball If the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is then the body is too slow The cure for this is not to slow the swing down Conversely you want to speed the body rotation up Feel the hips begin the downswing and the arms catch up to the lower body Now your swing is together

Shot two - The block out slice shot There are several reasons

Get It Together By Greg Ellis General Manager Trilogy Golf Club at Vistancia

that a golfer may think they block or slice a ball However a blocked out or slice shot is a result of the club lagging way behind the body on the forward swing Once again if the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is the body is too fast (This is what you see Tiger Woods do quite often when he misses to the right) The cure for this is not to slow the body down Conversely you want to speed up the arms Try to feel like the arms and lower body are swinging back to the ball at the same time Again your swing will be together

Just remember do not try to slow down a part of the swing and try to speed up the part of the swing that is slow

Have fun and remember if you need help with this tip or any other feel free to email me at gregellistrilogygolfclubcom or call me for a lesson at 623-328-5107

Tips for Beating the Summer Heat While Out on the Course By The Vistancia Information Center

gtgtgt bLACkSTONe COuNTry CLub

We are all too familiar with the 110+ degree temperatures this time of year but donrsquot let that prevent you from enjoying a round of golf A little bit of preparation can

go a long way when planning to spend extended time in the Arizona sun here are some helpful tips to keep you cool throughout the summer

Hydrate- Remember to drink at least eight 8 ounce glasses of fluid per day depending on an individualrsquos health needs drinking more water is recommended and wonrsquot hurt the 8x8 rule however is a good guideline to help keep up with fluid intake

Wear a Cap and Sunglasses- Bringing the right accessories with you on the course will help keep you cool and prevent harmful UV rays from directly reaching your skin

Early Tee Times- Temperatures in Arizona can be 10 to 15 degrees cooler in the earlier parts of the morning scheduling earlier team times before the sun comes up can make for a much more enjoyable golf experience

Take a Break- After the first nine holes take a break and enjoy a snack and cold beverage Getting out of the heat for a few minutes to cool down will help you get through to the eighteenth hole |

V istancia Residents I wanted to send out a quick reminder from the Peoria Police Department about locking your doors rolling up your windows and keeping valuables out

of your car Recently we have had several burglaries in the Vistancia community where items were removed from vehicles and in a couple instances residences were entered The homes were entered after the garage door opener was used to gain access to the house The reports show that the vehicles that were entered were all unsecured and no forced entry was made It is imperative that everyone lock your doors and remove any valuables from your vehicles The ldquoBad Guysrdquo look for opportunity and the path of least resistance If they walk into your driveway see itrsquos unlocked with wallets sporting equipment etc in your vehicle they will be in and out of your car with YOUR property in less than a minute

gtgtgt CITy Of peOrIA

gtgtgt pOLICe beAT

With that being said the crime rate in Vistancia remains low I believe it remains low because of the community involvement with everyone watching out for one another Letrsquos keep that going Talk with your neighbors remind everyone to lock their doors and keep their windows rolled up In addition please remember the Peoria Police Department offers a wide range of crime prevention programs such as Crime Shield Nextdoorcom and Crime Reports We can even get you started on organizing your own block watch Please visit our website (httpwwwpeoriaazgov) for additional information or call Lisa Mattox at 623-773-5011 to learn more about our programs

I hope everyone is enjoying their summer months and is staying cool

Pool Noodle Boat Racing By Vanessa Rodriguez Coppola of wwwSeeVanessaCraftcom

Keeping the kiddos entertained and not glued to electronics during the summer can be a tough task My kids and I recently crafted up a fun pool noodle boat racing boredom

buster game My 5 year old had a blast blowing his boat across the water and after the game was over my toddler turned the bib into a fun splash ldquotablerdquo

MATERIALSbull Pool Noodlesbull Pencilsbull Colorful Tapebull Foam Boardbull Scissorsbull Hot Glue Gunbull Large Plastic Bin

For more recipes and crafts visit wwwseevanessacraftcom You can also catch Vanessa on her local blog wwwwestvalleymomsblogcom written by Arizona moms for Arizona moms

DIRECTIONSStep 1 Cut pool noodles into 6 inch sections Cut those

sections in half as shown below A pair of sharp scissors will work

Step 2 Puncture a whole in the middle of the pool noodles with a pencil and leave the pencil inside

Step 3 Cut foam board into triangle shapesStep 4 Cover the foam triangle pieces with colorful tapeStep 5 Hot glue foam pieces to the pencils in the foamStep 6 Fill a large plastic bin with water You can add a few

drops of blue food coloring to the water if yoursquod likeStep 7 Place noodle boats in the water lined up on one side

and have the kids blow at their boat using a straw The first boat to the other side wins

In previous issues I have written about the importance of the proper sequence of motion in the golf swing While watching

golf throughout the week and weekend you see what happens when the sequence is

out of sync Specifically two things can happen neither are good results and here is the fix to get your swing together

Shot one - Over the top pull shot There are several reasons that a golfer may think they come over the top of a golf shot An over the top shot is a result of the club being swung from the top and passing by the ball prior to the body turning out of the way first If this occurs the swing path should be looked at first If the club is going back on the correct path the club should always be in front of your body If the club is behind you there is only one way to get the club back to the ball If the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is then the body is too slow The cure for this is not to slow the swing down Conversely you want to speed the body rotation up Feel the hips begin the downswing and the arms catch up to the lower body Now your swing is together

Shot two - The block out slice shot There are several reasons

Get It Together By Greg Ellis General Manager Trilogy Golf Club at Vistancia

that a golfer may think they block or slice a ball However a blocked out or slice shot is a result of the club lagging way behind the body on the forward swing Once again if the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is the body is too fast (This is what you see Tiger Woods do quite often when he misses to the right) The cure for this is not to slow the body down Conversely you want to speed up the arms Try to feel like the arms and lower body are swinging back to the ball at the same time Again your swing will be together

Just remember do not try to slow down a part of the swing and try to speed up the part of the swing that is slow

Have fun and remember if you need help with this tip or any other feel free to email me at gregellistrilogygolfclubcom or call me for a lesson at 623-328-5107

Tips for Beating the Summer Heat While Out on the Course By The Vistancia Information Center

gtgtgt bLACkSTONe COuNTry CLub

We are all too familiar with the 110+ degree temperatures this time of year but donrsquot let that prevent you from enjoying a round of golf A little bit of preparation can

go a long way when planning to spend extended time in the Arizona sun here are some helpful tips to keep you cool throughout the summer

Hydrate- Remember to drink at least eight 8 ounce glasses of fluid per day depending on an individualrsquos health needs drinking more water is recommended and wonrsquot hurt the 8x8 rule however is a good guideline to help keep up with fluid intake

Wear a Cap and Sunglasses- Bringing the right accessories with you on the course will help keep you cool and prevent harmful UV rays from directly reaching your skin

Early Tee Times- Temperatures in Arizona can be 10 to 15 degrees cooler in the earlier parts of the morning scheduling earlier team times before the sun comes up can make for a much more enjoyable golf experience

Take a Break- After the first nine holes take a break and enjoy a snack and cold beverage Getting out of the heat for a few minutes to cool down will help you get through to the eighteenth hole |

V istancia Residents I wanted to send out a quick reminder from the Peoria Police Department about locking your doors rolling up your windows and keeping valuables out

of your car Recently we have had several burglaries in the Vistancia community where items were removed from vehicles and in a couple instances residences were entered The homes were entered after the garage door opener was used to gain access to the house The reports show that the vehicles that were entered were all unsecured and no forced entry was made It is imperative that everyone lock your doors and remove any valuables from your vehicles The ldquoBad Guysrdquo look for opportunity and the path of least resistance If they walk into your driveway see itrsquos unlocked with wallets sporting equipment etc in your vehicle they will be in and out of your car with YOUR property in less than a minute

gtgtgt CITy Of peOrIA

gtgtgt pOLICe beAT

With that being said the crime rate in Vistancia remains low I believe it remains low because of the community involvement with everyone watching out for one another Letrsquos keep that going Talk with your neighbors remind everyone to lock their doors and keep their windows rolled up In addition please remember the Peoria Police Department offers a wide range of crime prevention programs such as Crime Shield Nextdoorcom and Crime Reports We can even get you started on organizing your own block watch Please visit our website (httpwwwpeoriaazgov) for additional information or call Lisa Mattox at 623-773-5011 to learn more about our programs

I hope everyone is enjoying their summer months and is staying cool

Pool Noodle Boat Racing By Vanessa Rodriguez Coppola of wwwSeeVanessaCraftcom

Keeping the kiddos entertained and not glued to electronics during the summer can be a tough task My kids and I recently crafted up a fun pool noodle boat racing boredom

buster game My 5 year old had a blast blowing his boat across the water and after the game was over my toddler turned the bib into a fun splash ldquotablerdquo

MATERIALSbull Pool Noodlesbull Pencilsbull Colorful Tapebull Foam Boardbull Scissorsbull Hot Glue Gunbull Large Plastic Bin

For more recipes and crafts visit wwwseevanessacraftcom You can also catch Vanessa on her local blog wwwwestvalleymomsblogcom written by Arizona moms for Arizona moms

DIRECTIONSStep 1 Cut pool noodles into 6 inch sections Cut those

sections in half as shown below A pair of sharp scissors will work

Step 2 Puncture a whole in the middle of the pool noodles with a pencil and leave the pencil inside

Step 3 Cut foam board into triangle shapesStep 4 Cover the foam triangle pieces with colorful tapeStep 5 Hot glue foam pieces to the pencils in the foamStep 6 Fill a large plastic bin with water You can add a few

drops of blue food coloring to the water if yoursquod likeStep 7 Place noodle boats in the water lined up on one side

and have the kids blow at their boat using a straw The first boat to the other side wins

In previous issues I have written about the importance of the proper sequence of motion in the golf swing While watching

golf throughout the week and weekend you see what happens when the sequence is

out of sync Specifically two things can happen neither are good results and here is the fix to get your swing together

Shot one - Over the top pull shot There are several reasons that a golfer may think they come over the top of a golf shot An over the top shot is a result of the club being swung from the top and passing by the ball prior to the body turning out of the way first If this occurs the swing path should be looked at first If the club is going back on the correct path the club should always be in front of your body If the club is behind you there is only one way to get the club back to the ball If the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is then the body is too slow The cure for this is not to slow the swing down Conversely you want to speed the body rotation up Feel the hips begin the downswing and the arms catch up to the lower body Now your swing is together

Shot two - The block out slice shot There are several reasons

Get It Together By Greg Ellis General Manager Trilogy Golf Club at Vistancia

that a golfer may think they block or slice a ball However a blocked out or slice shot is a result of the club lagging way behind the body on the forward swing Once again if the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is the body is too fast (This is what you see Tiger Woods do quite often when he misses to the right) The cure for this is not to slow the body down Conversely you want to speed up the arms Try to feel like the arms and lower body are swinging back to the ball at the same time Again your swing will be together

Just remember do not try to slow down a part of the swing and try to speed up the part of the swing that is slow

Have fun and remember if you need help with this tip or any other feel free to email me at gregellistrilogygolfclubcom or call me for a lesson at 623-328-5107

Tips for Beating the Summer Heat While Out on the Course By The Vistancia Information Center

gtgtgt bLACkSTONe COuNTry CLub

We are all too familiar with the 110+ degree temperatures this time of year but donrsquot let that prevent you from enjoying a round of golf A little bit of preparation can

go a long way when planning to spend extended time in the Arizona sun here are some helpful tips to keep you cool throughout the summer

Hydrate- Remember to drink at least eight 8 ounce glasses of fluid per day depending on an individualrsquos health needs drinking more water is recommended and wonrsquot hurt the 8x8 rule however is a good guideline to help keep up with fluid intake

Wear a Cap and Sunglasses- Bringing the right accessories with you on the course will help keep you cool and prevent harmful UV rays from directly reaching your skin

Early Tee Times- Temperatures in Arizona can be 10 to 15 degrees cooler in the earlier parts of the morning scheduling earlier team times before the sun comes up can make for a much more enjoyable golf experience

Take a Break- After the first nine holes take a break and enjoy a snack and cold beverage Getting out of the heat for a few minutes to cool down will help you get through to the eighteenth hole |

V istancia Residents I wanted to send out a quick reminder from the Peoria Police Department about locking your doors rolling up your windows and keeping valuables out

of your car Recently we have had several burglaries in the Vistancia community where items were removed from vehicles and in a couple instances residences were entered The homes were entered after the garage door opener was used to gain access to the house The reports show that the vehicles that were entered were all unsecured and no forced entry was made It is imperative that everyone lock your doors and remove any valuables from your vehicles The ldquoBad Guysrdquo look for opportunity and the path of least resistance If they walk into your driveway see itrsquos unlocked with wallets sporting equipment etc in your vehicle they will be in and out of your car with YOUR property in less than a minute

gtgtgt CITy Of peOrIA

gtgtgt pOLICe beAT

With that being said the crime rate in Vistancia remains low I believe it remains low because of the community involvement with everyone watching out for one another Letrsquos keep that going Talk with your neighbors remind everyone to lock their doors and keep their windows rolled up In addition please remember the Peoria Police Department offers a wide range of crime prevention programs such as Crime Shield Nextdoorcom and Crime Reports We can even get you started on organizing your own block watch Please visit our website (httpwwwpeoriaazgov) for additional information or call Lisa Mattox at 623-773-5011 to learn more about our programs

I hope everyone is enjoying their summer months and is staying cool

In previous issues I have written about the importance of the proper sequence of motion in the golf swing While watching

golf throughout the week and weekend you see what happens when the sequence is

out of sync Specifically two things can happen neither are good results and here is the fix to get your swing together

Shot one - Over the top pull shot There are several reasons that a golfer may think they come over the top of a golf shot An over the top shot is a result of the club being swung from the top and passing by the ball prior to the body turning out of the way first If this occurs the swing path should be looked at first If the club is going back on the correct path the club should always be in front of your body If the club is behind you there is only one way to get the club back to the ball If the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is then the body is too slow The cure for this is not to slow the swing down Conversely you want to speed the body rotation up Feel the hips begin the downswing and the arms catch up to the lower body Now your swing is together

Shot two - The block out slice shot There are several reasons

Get It Together By Greg Ellis General Manager Trilogy Golf Club at Vistancia

that a golfer may think they block or slice a ball However a blocked out or slice shot is a result of the club lagging way behind the body on the forward swing Once again if the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is the body is too fast (This is what you see Tiger Woods do quite often when he misses to the right) The cure for this is not to slow the body down Conversely you want to speed up the arms Try to feel like the arms and lower body are swinging back to the ball at the same time Again your swing will be together

Just remember do not try to slow down a part of the swing and try to speed up the part of the swing that is slow

gtgtgt bLACkSTONe COuNTry CLub

We are all too familiar with the 110+ degree temperatures this time of year but donrsquot let that prevent you from enjoying a round of golf A little bit of preparation can

go a long way when planning to spend extended time in the Arizona sun here are some helpful tips to keep you cool throughout the summer

Hydrate- Remember to drink at least eight 8 ounce glasses of fluid per day depending on an individualrsquos health needs drinking more water is recommended and wonrsquot hurt the 8x8 rule however is a good guideline to help keep up with fluid intake

Wear a Cap and Sunglasses- Bringing the right accessories with you on the course will help keep you cool and prevent harmful UV rays from directly reaching your skin

Early Tee Times- Temperatures in Arizona can be 10 to 15 degrees cooler in the earlier parts of the morning scheduling earlier team times before the sun comes up can make for a much more enjoyable golf experience

Take a Break- After the first nine holes take a break and enjoy a snack and cold beverage Getting out of the heat for a few minutes to cool down will help you get through to the eighteenth hole |

V istancia Residents I wanted to send out a quick reminder from the Peoria Police Department about locking your doors rolling up your windows and keeping valuables out

of your car Recently we have had several burglaries in the Vistancia community where items were removed from vehicles and in a couple instances residences were entered The homes were entered after the garage door opener was used to gain access to the house The reports show that the vehicles that were entered were all unsecured and no forced entry was made It is imperative that everyone lock your doors and remove any valuables from your vehicles The ldquoBad Guysrdquo look for opportunity and the path of least resistance If they walk into your driveway see itrsquos unlocked with wallets sporting equipment etc in your vehicle they will be in and out of your car with YOUR property in less than a minute

gtgtgt CITy Of peOrIA

gtgtgt pOLICe beAT

With that being said the crime rate in Vistancia remains low I believe it remains low because of the community involvement with everyone watching out for one another Letrsquos keep that going Talk with your neighbors remind everyone to lock their doors and keep their windows rolled up In addition please remember the Peoria Police Department offers a wide range of crime prevention programs such as Crime Shield Nextdoorcom and Crime Reports We can even get you started on organizing your own block watch Please visit our website (httpwwwpeoriaazgov) for additional information or call Lisa Mattox at 623-773-5011 to learn more about our programs

I hope everyone is enjoying their summer months and is staying cool

of your car Recently we have had several burglaries in the Vistancia community where items were removed from vehicles and in a couple instances residences were entered The homes were entered after the garage door opener was used to gain access to the house The reports show that the vehicles that were entered were all unsecured and no forced entry was made It is imperative that everyone lock your doors and remove any valuables from your vehicles The ldquoBad Guysrdquo look for opportunity and the path of least resistance If they walk into your driveway see itrsquos unlocked with wallets sporting equipment etc in your vehicle they will be in and out of your car with YOUR property in less than a minute

With that being said the crime rate in Vistancia remains low I believe it remains low because of the community involvement with everyone watching out for one another Letrsquos keep that going Talk with your neighbors remind everyone to lock their doors and keep their windows rolled up In addition please remember the Peoria Police Department offers a wide range of crime prevention programs such as Crime Shield Nextdoorcom and Crime Reports We can even get you started on organizing your own block watch Please visit our website (httpwwwpeoriaazgov) for additional information or call Lisa Mattox at 623-773-5011 to learn more about our programs

I hope everyone is enjoying their summer months and is staying cool

In previous issues I have written about the importance of the proper sequence of motion in the golf swing While watching

golf throughout the week and weekend you see what happens when the sequence is

out of sync Specifically two things can happen neither are good results and here is the fix to get your swing together

Shot one - Over the top pull shot There are several reasons that a golfer may think they come over the top of a golf shot An over the top shot is a result of the club being swung from the top and passing by the ball prior to the body turning out of the way first If this occurs the swing path should be looked at first If the club is going back on the correct path the club should always be in front of your body If the club is behind you there is only one way to get the club back to the ball If the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is then the body is too slow The cure for this is not to slow the swing down Conversely you want to speed the body rotation up Feel the hips begin the downswing and the arms catch up to the lower body Now your swing is together

Shot two - The block out slice shot There are several reasons

Get It Together By Greg Ellis General Manager Trilogy Golf Club at Vistancia

that a golfer may think they block or slice a ball However a blocked out or slice shot is a result of the club lagging way behind the body on the forward swing Once again if the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is the body is too fast (This is what you see Tiger Woods do quite often when he misses to the right) The cure for this is not to slow the body down Conversely you want to speed up the arms Try to feel like the arms and lower body are swinging back to the ball at the same time Again your swing will be together

Just remember do not try to slow down a part of the swing and try to speed up the part of the swing that is slow

Have fun and remember if you need help with this tip or any other feel free to email me at gregellistrilogygolfclubcom or call me for a lesson at 623-328-5107

Tips for Beating the Summer Heat While Out on the Course By The Vistancia Information Center

gtgtgt bLACkSTONe COuNTry CLub

We are all too familiar with the 110+ degree temperatures this time of year but donrsquot let that prevent you from enjoying a round of golf A little bit of preparation can

go a long way when planning to spend extended time in the Arizona sun here are some helpful tips to keep you cool throughout the summer

Hydrate- Remember to drink at least eight 8 ounce glasses of fluid per day depending on an individualrsquos health needs drinking more water is recommended and wonrsquot hurt the 8x8 rule however is a good guideline to help keep up with fluid intake

Wear a Cap and Sunglasses- Bringing the right accessories with you on the course will help keep you cool and prevent harmful UV rays from directly reaching your skin

Early Tee Times- Temperatures in Arizona can be 10 to 15 degrees cooler in the earlier parts of the morning scheduling earlier team times before the sun comes up can make for a much more enjoyable golf experience

Take a Break- After the first nine holes take a break and enjoy a snack and cold beverage Getting out of the heat for a few minutes to cool down will help you get through to the eighteenth hole |

In previous issues I have written about the importance of the proper sequence of motion in the golf swing While watching

golf throughout the week and weekend you see what happens when the sequence is

out of sync Specifically two things can happen neither are good results and here is the fix to get your swing together

Shot one - Over the top pull shot There are several reasons that a golfer may think they come over the top of a golf shot An over the top shot is a result of the club being swung from the top and passing by the ball prior to the body turning out of the way first If this occurs the swing path should be looked at first If the club is going back on the correct path the club should always be in front of your body If the club is behind you there is only one way to get the club back to the ball If the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is then the body is too slow The cure for this is not to slow the swing down Conversely you want to speed the body rotation up Feel the hips begin the downswing and the arms catch up to the lower body Now your swing is together

Shot two - The block out slice shot There are several reasons

Get It Together By Greg Ellis General Manager Trilogy Golf Club at Vistancia

that a golfer may think they block or slice a ball However a blocked out or slice shot is a result of the club lagging way behind the body on the forward swing Once again if the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is the body is too fast (This is what you see Tiger Woods do quite often when he misses to the right) The cure for this is not to slow the body down Conversely you want to speed up the arms Try to feel like the arms and lower body are swinging back to the ball at the same time Again your swing will be together

Just remember do not try to slow down a part of the swing and try to speed up the part of the swing that is slow

Have fun and remember if you need help with this tip or any other feel free to email me at gregellistrilogygolfclubcom or call me for a lesson at 623-328-5107

Tips for Beating the Summer Heat While Out on the Course By The Vistancia Information Center

gtgtgt bLACkSTONe COuNTry CLub

We are all too familiar with the 110+ degree temperatures this time of year but donrsquot let that prevent you from enjoying a round of golf A little bit of preparation can

go a long way when planning to spend extended time in the Arizona sun here are some helpful tips to keep you cool throughout the summer

Hydrate- Remember to drink at least eight 8 ounce glasses of fluid per day depending on an individualrsquos health needs drinking more water is recommended and wonrsquot hurt the 8x8 rule however is a good guideline to help keep up with fluid intake

Wear a Cap and Sunglasses- Bringing the right accessories with you on the course will help keep you cool and prevent harmful UV rays from directly reaching your skin

Early Tee Times- Temperatures in Arizona can be 10 to 15 degrees cooler in the earlier parts of the morning scheduling earlier team times before the sun comes up can make for a much more enjoyable golf experience

Take a Break- After the first nine holes take a break and enjoy a snack and cold beverage Getting out of the heat for a few minutes to cool down will help you get through to the eighteenth hole |

V istancia Residents I wanted to send out a quick reminder from the Peoria Police Department about locking your doors rolling up your windows and keeping valuables out

of your car Recently we have had several burglaries in the Vistancia community where items were removed from vehicles and in a couple instances residences were entered The homes were entered after the garage door opener was used to gain access to the house The reports show that the vehicles that were entered were all unsecured and no forced entry was made It is imperative that everyone lock your doors and remove any valuables from your vehicles The ldquoBad Guysrdquo look for opportunity and the path of least resistance If they walk into your driveway see itrsquos unlocked with wallets sporting equipment etc in your vehicle they will be in and out of your car with YOUR property in less than a minute

gtgtgt CITy Of peOrIA

gtgtgt pOLICe beAT

With that being said the crime rate in Vistancia remains low I believe it remains low because of the community involvement with everyone watching out for one another Letrsquos keep that going Talk with your neighbors remind everyone to lock their doors and keep their windows rolled up In addition please remember the Peoria Police Department offers a wide range of crime prevention programs such as Crime Shield Nextdoorcom and Crime Reports We can even get you started on organizing your own block watch Please visit our website (httpwwwpeoriaazgov) for additional information or call Lisa Mattox at 623-773-5011 to learn more about our programs

I hope everyone is enjoying their summer months and is staying cool

In previous issues I have written about the importance of the proper sequence of motion in the golf swing While watching

golf throughout the week and weekend you see what happens when the sequence is

out of sync Specifically two things can happen neither are good results and here is the fix to get your swing together

Shot one - Over the top pull shot There are several reasons that a golfer may think they come over the top of a golf shot An over the top shot is a result of the club being swung from the top and passing by the ball prior to the body turning out of the way first If this occurs the swing path should be looked at first If the club is going back on the correct path the club should always be in front of your body If the club is behind you there is only one way to get the club back to the ball If the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is then the body is too slow The cure for this is not to slow the swing down Conversely you want to speed the body rotation up Feel the hips begin the downswing and the arms catch up to the lower body Now your swing is together

Shot two - The block out slice shot There are several reasons

Get It Together By Greg Ellis General Manager Trilogy Golf Club at Vistancia

that a golfer may think they block or slice a ball However a blocked out or slice shot is a result of the club lagging way behind the body on the forward swing Once again if the path is correct for the sake of discussion I will assume that it is the body is too fast (This is what you see Tiger Woods do quite often when he misses to the right) The cure for this is not to slow the body down Conversely you want to speed up the arms Try to feel like the arms and lower body are swinging back to the ball at the same time Again your swing will be together

Just remember do not try to slow down a part of the swing and try to speed up the part of the swing that is slow

We are all too familiar with the 110+ degree temperatures this time of year but donrsquot let that prevent you from enjoying a round of golf A little bit of preparation can

go a long way when planning to spend extended time in the Arizona sun here are some helpful tips to keep you cool throughout the summer

Hydrate- Remember to drink at least eight 8 ounce glasses of fluid per day depending on an individualrsquos health needs drinking more water is recommended and wonrsquot hurt the 8x8 rule however is a good guideline to help keep up with fluid intake

Wear a Cap and Sunglasses- Bringing the right accessories with you on the course will help keep you cool and prevent harmful UV rays from directly reaching your skin

Early Tee Times- Temperatures in Arizona can be 10 to 15 degrees cooler in the earlier parts of the morning scheduling earlier team times before the sun comes up can make for a much more enjoyable golf experience

Take a Break- After the first nine holes take a break and enjoy a snack and cold beverage Getting out of the heat for a few minutes to cool down will help you get through to the eighteenth hole |

V istancia Residents I wanted to send out a quick reminder from the Peoria Police Department about locking your doors rolling up your windows and keeping valuables out

of your car Recently we have had several burglaries in the Vistancia community where items were removed from vehicles and in a couple instances residences were entered The homes were entered after the garage door opener was used to gain access to the house The reports show that the vehicles that were entered were all unsecured and no forced entry was made It is imperative that everyone lock your doors and remove any valuables from your vehicles The ldquoBad Guysrdquo look for opportunity and the path of least resistance If they walk into your driveway see itrsquos unlocked with wallets sporting equipment etc in your vehicle they will be in and out of your car with YOUR property in less than a minute

gtgtgt CITy Of peOrIA

gtgtgt pOLICe beAT

With that being said the crime rate in Vistancia remains low I believe it remains low because of the community involvement with everyone watching out for one another Letrsquos keep that going Talk with your neighbors remind everyone to lock their doors and keep their windows rolled up In addition please remember the Peoria Police Department offers a wide range of crime prevention programs such as Crime Shield Nextdoorcom and Crime Reports We can even get you started on organizing your own block watch Please visit our website (httpwwwpeoriaazgov) for additional information or call Lisa Mattox at 623-773-5011 to learn more about our programs

I hope everyone is enjoying their summer months and is staying cool

gtgtgt CITy Of peOrIA

gtgtgt pOLICe beAT

With that being said the crime rate in Vistancia remains low I believe it remains low because of the community involvement with everyone watching out for one another Letrsquos keep that going Talk with your neighbors remind everyone to lock their doors and keep their windows rolled up In addition please remember the Peoria Police Department offers a wide range of crime prevention programs such as Crime Shield Nextdoorcom and Crime Reports We can even get you started on organizing your own block watch Please visit our website (httpwwwpeoriaazgov) for additional information or call Lisa Mattox at 623-773-5011 to learn more about our programs

I hope everyone is enjoying their summer months and is staying cool

Come Grow With Us

Safety Reminder Officer Jeremy Meeks Peoria Police Department

Come grow with us The City of Peoria strives to educate its residents about the many wonderful opportunities there are to empower them to live more sustainably The cityrsquos

Sustainable U program offers many free workshops led by highly qualified instructors and field experts in a wide range of topics such as solar energy efficiency in the home rainwater harvesting homeowner tree care workshop (you even get a free tree) and much more Most of the workshops are held at the Rio Vista Community

Park and this fall we are excited to head north and offer two Sustainable U workshops Solar 101 and Energy Efficiency in the Home These two workshops will be held at the Pinnacle Peak Public Safety Facility

This fall be on the lookout for the Get Active publication that comes in your mail Itrsquos a great resource for many programs the city has to offer In the brochure you can locate the list of fall workshops in addition to many special interest classes to reinvigorate your love for learning something new

Register online at wwwpeoriaazgovrecreation or call (623) 773-7137

V istancia Residents I wanted to send out a quick reminder from the Peoria Police Department about locking your doors rolling up your windows and keeping valuables out

of your car Recently we have had several burglaries in the Vistancia community where items were removed from vehicles and in a couple instances residences were entered The homes were entered after the garage door opener was used to gain access to the house The reports show that the vehicles that were entered were all unsecured and no forced entry was made It is imperative that everyone lock your doors and remove any valuables from your vehicles The ldquoBad Guysrdquo look for opportunity and the path of least resistance If they walk into your driveway see itrsquos unlocked with wallets sporting equipment etc in your vehicle they will be in and out of your car with YOUR property in less than a minute

gtgtgt CITy Of peOrIA

gtgtgt pOLICe beAT

With that being said the crime rate in Vistancia remains low I believe it remains low because of the community involvement with everyone watching out for one another Letrsquos keep that going Talk with your neighbors remind everyone to lock their doors and keep their windows rolled up In addition please remember the Peoria Police Department offers a wide range of crime prevention programs such as Crime Shield Nextdoorcom and Crime Reports We can even get you started on organizing your own block watch Please visit our website (httpwwwpeoriaazgov) for additional information or call Lisa Mattox at 623-773-5011 to learn more about our programs

I hope everyone is enjoying their summer months and is staying cool

The City of Peoria is also happy to introduce Erik Wilson ldquoThe Garden Gururdquo Erik has been with the city for 14 years as the cityrsquos certified municipal arborist and master gardener and has been our go-to guy for ensuring that our City parks and citywide landscape are beautifully designed watered efficiently and functional

Erikrsquos has spent the last 20 years perfecting his skill in landscape design and maintenance from mowing all the way to private consulting And when hersquos not hard at work for the City Erik volunteers with the Valley Permaculture Alliance with their Shade Tree Program and works with the Fruit Tree Planting Foundation as a Program Arborist

Erik is here to help Have a question about your garden Need some advice about watering techniques Are you wondering when the best time to plant your fall garden is Ask Erik at GardenGurupeoriaazgov Happy planting
