AT LAKE LAS VEGAS SPORTS CLUB

— By Whitney Maher

‘Tis the season for family-friendly fun! The Lake Las Vegas Sports Club is celebrating the most wonderful time of the year with holiday events throughout December that every member of your family can enjoy.

Sports Club members and Lake Las Vegas residents can join the excitement with cookie decorating celebrations, holiday photo sessions with custom-made backdrops, live caroling performances and happy hour holiday cocktail specials. Events will be hosted at the Sports Club during the first three Fridays of December. On the last Friday of the month, members, residents and their guests are invited to raise a glass to 2022 as the Sports Club celebrates the incoming New Year while overlooking the lake, Las Vegas Strip and Reflection Bay! Count down to the East Coast New Year at 9 p.m. while enjoying live music, a cash bar and party favors throughout the evening.

“We are excited to bring together our Sports Club members and community residents for some fun this holiday season and to have the opportunity to enjoy each other’s company during this joyful time of year,” said Dann Battistone, general manager of the Lake Las Vegas Sports Club.

The Sports Club is following all health and safety guidelines as recommended by local and state officials. To see the full schedule of events, visit LakeLasVegas.com/events.

TOP NEVADA ROWING CLUB

BEGINS SIXTH YEAR AT LAKE LAS VEGAS

— By Brittany Barksdale

Did you know Lake Las Vegas is home to an award-winning rowing club for both youth and adults? The Lake Las Vegas Rowing Club, helmed by resident Jim Anderson, is gaining traction as one of the top rowing clubs in the state.

Since he founded the club in 2016, Anderson has shared his love for rowing with the Las Vegas community. “The best thing about rowing is there is no experience required. Everyone is welcome,” he said. “It’s the perfect opportunity to meet people and build lasting friendships.”

Anderson said the club’s mission is to promote rowing and develop the athletes’ teamwork, communication and leadership skills.

“Rowing is an incredible sport, but the lessons we teach that translate outside of the water are imperative,” Anderson said. “Yes, my job is to teach rowing, but building members’ self-confidence and helping them find a sense of purpose is why I have such passion for coaching.” Participation in the Lake Las Vegas Rowing Club is available for students in grades 8-11, as well as adults. University of Nevada, Las Vegas and Nevada State College students can also join their respective college teams.

For more information on the Lake Las Vegas Rowing Club, contact Anderson at jim@llrc.org or call (415) 309-9421. Visit llvrc.org for more information.

EXECUTIVE SCENE THE STIRLING CLUB

The Difference

There’s sentimental There’s sentimental energy that happens when we find ourselves back in the company of people we love, the excitement of connecting with new faces and stepping out again to familiar places. I hope none of us take these moments for granted as we’ve come to know that time is the most valuable luxury that we hold. A vibrant network of community brings true humanity back to life. Face to face, we are all better together.

We do that by bringing people together, uniting different points of view, serving our neighbors, loving those who challenge us, and always elevating the room with our presence.

As you read Deluxe Version Magazine and as our exciting events happen across the country, I invite each of you to find an incredible network of people who shine. Step out and be expectant for great opportunities to unfold. For many, the new connections will be instantaneous; for others, the breakthroughs will be life-changing. You get to be the difference The power of your presence in any setting will be determined by a clear intention of how you can be a light to each interaction you make.

I hope you enjoy this issue as we celebrate some of the most passionate executives (including 50 Eggs’ founder John Kunkel), and the nightlife industry leaders at ZOUK. We also highlight game-changers like Jewel, Michael Yo, Derek Hough, Danica Patrick, Emelina Adams, and Tiffany Haddish. You’ll be inspired to discover more as you read on through our top travel destinations, luxury real estate, and stunning works in interior design! Sincerely,

Timothy Hancock

At last, my first note to you as editor-in-chief! A role my younger self long admired, a position to advocate a positive space for my community, and a voice with a publication I sincerely have so much love for; this is truly an honor.

Thank you to Timothy Hancock for allowing me to flourish here at the magazine for five amazingly memorable years under his leadership as the publisher. I am beyond grateful for this new opportunity and your trust among such an incredible team of writers, journalists, and community leaders.

I want to take a moment to thank my parents for their enduring presence and encouragement. We have been through some pretty magical moments together; sharing this chapter of my life with them is one of my favorites.
