Where's the Sun City Entertainment? Freedom Hall is Getting Spider Webs and Growing Mold Already with Lack of Use....An Anthem Opinions Editorial

 Are Sun City Anthem Residents Getting "Snookered" 

While the Rest of the World is Awakening?


 
Look who is miles ahead in caring for its residents ???

It's not Sun City Anthem, it's..

Sun City Macdonald Ranch Homes for Sale
 
... that's who!
 
It's been 16 months since the pandemic began, and over that period of time, entertainment has made every attempt to open...
 
...Except...

Sun City Anthem Homes
 
Look around ! 
 
There's The Italian American Club, Chianti Restaurant, Stoney's Rocking Country, Crooner's Inc., The Vegas Room, The Nevada Room, the Strip and Downtown, and of course, MacDonald Ranch.

Except...

Sun City Anthem Homes

 
They've all lived AND SURVIVED by the same rules, and even the cruise ships look like they'll be hitting the high seas...
 
Except....
 
Sun City Anthem Homes
 
Yes, Vegas entertainment is open for business !
 
Except....
 
Sun City Anthem Homes
 
So, we have a CEO making a quarter of a mil a year, an association attorney who fills in his own amounts for such items as discrimination, harassment,  and other senseless documents...

...and a full staff that is paid to do what?

Clean 3 buildings, cut shrubs, and and most importantly, collect dues.

Come on ?     
 
OK, we've tried to see where the money goes in the past, but thus far, the world is opening everywhere....
 
Except....
 
Sun City Anthem Homes
 
So, at the very least, we have residents starving for entertainment in a hall that hasn't been used in 16+ months, and we have  local entertainers that look at our community in terms of a bunch of old paranoid farts who are afraid of their own shadows...
 
...yet have no problem venturing out to other venues, casinos, and restaurants to fill their tummies !
 
So...bottom line, new Sun City Anthem Board....
 
When do we get our entertainment back?  It's time, don't ya think?

  • From Harriet Hoffman...to...Anthem Opinions

    I am seeing my fellow residents at all the venues that are taking place, as your mentioned in your article, especially McDonald Ranch...but not here.

    I am extremely disappointed and frustrated by the actions, or rather inaction of SCA to provide us same or better.

    We are bigger and have an incredible facility...that isn’t being used.

    This is why I chose SCA.

    I am being let down. 

    I feel I can express this viewpoint as our HAVURAH Club has attempted to provide programs for our club and community.

    Again hampered by facility perhaps too restrictive and prohibitive regulations. 

    I agree with your evaluation and support your position.

    Thank you

  • Thank you Harriet.

    It's time SCA residents got some bang for their buck in this area.

    1. Over the year + long closures of our facilities I noticed our dues were not reduced one cent. Seems hardly fair or reasonable.

      That was very funny! 

      Although I am amused, and starved for entertainment and the companion of others, I do agree with taking it slow to open.

      As there are many  old "farts" that are holding things back, there are just as many old "farts" who won't comply with the standard PPE. 

      I'm talking about something as simple as washing hands when leaving a restroom. 

      When these old "farts" grow up, maybe we can have a safer environment.  

    2. Dorothy,

      Thanks for the comment. Believe me, if we had entertainment, we would fill Freedom Hall.

      At MacDonald Ranch, both 4:00pm and 7:00pm Mark OToole shows were sellouts. The following week, The Folk Legacy Trio's 4:00 and 7:00pm shows were also sellouts.

      The interesting aspect of the Folk Legacy Trio shows was the dating of May 2, 2021. Capacity was increased to 80% as of May 1st, and once increased, the additional seating was sold out within hours.

      Those who wish to avoid others, the "old farts", are more than welcome to do so, but there are more than MANY who would love to live life again....

      ....especially since most in Sun City Anthem have already been vaccinated.

      Like Franklin Roosevelt once said:

      "The only thing to fear...is...fear itself"

      It appears Caesars Entertainment is bouncing back in a big way.

      Sold out for the foreseeable future.

      During an earnings call this week, the company's chief operating officer said weekends here in Las Vegas are sold out for the time being.

      Caesars' occupancy rate was 84% last month but company executives expect the rate to improve in May and June.

     

    1. Blessings to you that we have this publication to make us aware of how we are getting "snookered"! I thought we voted for a Board to look after our interests here in SCA. We had at least one Board member who was fulfilling her promise, but she was "run out of town" What can we do?

    2. Patricia,

      When that lady was "run out of town" due to the efforts of a pack of lies, combined with a spineless board afraid of their own shadows to stand up for what was right, the result was obvious in the last election....there was no election.

      7,144 homes and there were an insufficient number of candidates to even hold an election.

      That says quite a bit for the trust and confidence a community has in its leaders. Literally, no one cares, because they created such a negative community atmosphere.

      I actually feel sorry for the newest members of the SCA Board.

      They will soon learn that "the road to hell is paved with good intentions" due to the cowardly bunch they will now join.
