Gun owners will be able to continue shooting at the Desert Sportsman’s Rifle & Pistol Club after the west valley firing range received a permit to operate for another five years.

Clark County Commissioners on Wednesday renewed the club’s use permit through 2014, although the club had sought a 10-year extension.

Concerns over the new village Summerlin will build just to the north and the Tech School being built just to the east prompted the dispute over the club having its licence renewed for 10 years.  For more information and to read the whole article read Desert Sportsman and Pistol Club

About 6 months ago a three field Paintball arena.  One field is designated for Speed-ball seven on seven players dodging around inflatable bunkers.  The other two fields are geared towards “scenario” paintball in which players  have hay bales, tires, and wooden barricades with portholes to shoot through,  playing to last man standing or capture the enemy’s flag.

There are plenty of regular players, but also a lot of first timers, some in their 70’s.    

Just recently a new challenging attraction opened at the Sports Park.  It has a rock wall, zip lines and tight ropes.  The challenge course features six low elements and six high elements.  The low elements are all on the ground and are meant to be done in groups.  (they do a lot of team building for businesses)
One such team building includes a telephone pole laid on the ground.  The participants are asked to stand on the pole and then arrange themselves according to height without touching the ground. 
One high element which are geared more towards individuals is the zip line, the participant can reach the lines by either scaling a 32 foot climbing wall or climbing a ladder.  Once hooked to the zip line they will travel down at about 35 MPH.  You can read more about this diverse adventure that sounds great

Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday.  We even had a small snow storm to give us a very small white Christmas.  I was up at The Suncoast where we had dinner with friends.  When we came out the snow was flying that was around 9:30 PM.  I did not have my camera with me darn it.  I wish each and every Summerlin resident a very Happy New Years!

While I am here let me remind you that you will be able to recycle your tree from Dec. 26th- Jan. 15th a drop site has been set up at the RC Wiley parking lot at 3850 South Town Center Drive the trees will then go to The Springs Preserve to be mulched up for all of our benefits.

I could not resist driving all of the way to the top of Summerlin and take a couple more pictures.  This is at the top of Charleston Blvd.  and this road if you go on leads you into Red Rock Conservatory. Summerlin has a fantastic view of Red Rock Canyon.  It is awesome with the red rocks, but is this not beautiful with the snow on it?   I do love living in Summerlin. 

My mom was in Summerlin Hospital for about 3 weeks a couple of years ago.  They took very good care of her so I was not surprised when I read that they had won the consumer choice award for 2008-09 from the National Research Council.  Summerlin Hospital was ranked one of the highest quality health care faculties in the United States.

Located off of Town Center and in the village of The Crossing .  This beautiful hospital has some awesome views of the mountains and also The Strip while you are recovering. 

To achieve this award surveys were distributed to more than 400,000 health care consumers, asking about everything from quality of equipment to level of service.  Summerlin Hospital joins only 116 other hospitals across the US to receive this award for the 2008-09 time period.  The respondents had used the hospital and its services with in the year previous.

At the end of April 2008, Summerlin Hospital opened a 20,000 sq. foot extension to its emergency room.  This included new CAT scan machines and radiology scanners.  Summerlin Hospital has around 1,100 employees and 1,400 physicians on staff.

I am proud to live in Summerlin and believe this great hospital deserves the award.  Just another good reason to live in Summerlin.  After all if you do not have your health what do you have?  For more about Summerlin Hospital you can read about them Summerlin Hospital Information

This is a very nice view of J.W. Marriott Resort and Spa. There is also a beautiful casino called The Rampart which connects with the Resort and Spa. The J.W. Marriott also backs up to the TPC Golf Course. Before Red Rock Casino opened this was the only Casino Spa Resort that was officially in Summerlin. Most people think that Sun Coast is part of Summerlin but the boundaries end just south of the J.W. Marriott. Thanks to LasVegasUndressed for this beautiful shot.

The developer has promised that the project will go forward but the general economic climate at this time.  John Bucksbaum Chief Executive with General Growth Properties was quoted saying they have the full support of the retailers to delay the project.
The Shops at Summerlin Centre will be beautiful when it is opened with pedestrian friendly shopping and outdoor gardens with seating for visitors to relax and enjoy their shopping experience.  There will also be condominiums built.

I was very much looking forward to the opening next year, but hope that the plans to open in 2010 will come to fruition.  I will post updates to this project as I find out more.
