Finally! It’s that time of year when we can enjoy the beautiful weather. While you’re out and about, don’t neglect to survey your yard and patio areas and see if there’s not some water wasting situations that might need your attention. Here are just a few items to consider: Our Favorite Berry • Check your irrigation system frequently and make the necessary adjustments so only your plants are getting watered and not the house, sidewalk or street. • Water plants only when necessary. More plants die from over-watering than from under-watering. • Signs of overwatering include leaves turning lighter shades of green or yellow, The “Liberry” young shoots wilting. Sometimes you may also notice algae or fungi growing.

Regardless, we in Sun City have many good reasons to love our favorite berries: • Water your plants deeply but less frequently to encourage deep root growth and drought tolerance. • Two Locations for Driving Convenience • Plant species native to the region and plant in the spring and fall, when the watering requirements are lower.

Sun City Gives Back Sundial Craft Gifts to Local School Children and Homeless Seniors Alike The busy crocheters, knitters and loomers from Sundial Craft Club had just finished making several hundred hats for Stitches of Love’s “Back to School” distribution.
It occurred to the club members that if they had more yarn that they could make even more hats for people who needed them. A search of area charities helped locate the Justa Cen- ter. Soon their leader Wendy came to the club to meet our members. The mission of the Justa Center is to help seniors who are homeless who desire to get back into housing. Yes, people our age homeless and on the streets in the Phoenix metropolitan area.
Sundial Craft Club members quickly got to work and created over 200 hats and scarves by the middle of September and ready for delivery before winter arrives.
Your donations could help Sundial Craft continue this proj- ect. If you have yarn stored that you no longer use, please bring it to our clubroom any Monday or Thursday morning. You’ll be helping others by helping us with your generosity.
Thanks Sundial Crafts for another great example of Sun City giving back to those in need! Fabulous job!
