FATHER'S DAY
JUNE 16, 2019
You’re hoping to show Dad how much he’s loved and appreciated. So, skip the necktie or BBQ utensil kit and give Dad what he really wants for Father’s Day – time spent with you! Since we live in pretty much the greatest city in the nation, there is no shortage of phenomenal experiences you can find to make your dad’s Father’s Day as special as he is. FOR THE DAD WHO LIVES FOR GOLF – Dad loves to golf, and Dad loves you. Take the whole family on a golf outing and really make his day. If you can take the heat, golf courses around Scottsdale are running their super summer specials in June and you’re bound to find a deal too good to pass up. Then again, perhaps Dad would like a day trip to cooler climes. Both Continental Country Club in Flagstaff and Oakcreek Country Club in Sedona are public courses to try. If 18 holes don't work for your crew, how about a less traditional golf outing at Top Golf instead? With your own hitting bay and numerous games to choose from, Top Golf is perfect for die-hards and golf novices alike. FOR DADS THAT HIT THE TARGET – How about reserving some time at one of Scottsdale’s air-cooled indoor shooting ranges? Both Scottsdale Gun Club and C2 Tactical offer

FOR THE ADRENALINE-JUNKIE DAD – If your dad likes to get his blood pumping, head over to iFLY, the indoor skydiving center. Not only can he experience flying in the wind tunnel, he can perfect his skills for acrobatic maneuvers such as transitions, rolls and flips. Or, if Dad has a need for speed, take him to Octane Raceway for some exhilarating laps on their 1/3-mile, indoor/outdoor kart track. FOR THE LIBATION-LOVING DAD – Does your dad like to chill out with a couple of cold ones? Or does he enjoy sipping and savoring the finest of pours? For a luxury neighborhood dive bar heavy on the man vibes, check out The Rooster Tavern. Or, if Dad appreciates a good Scotch, reserve a spot for yourselves at the Westin Kierland’s The Scotch Library. There you’ll find over 300 different bottles to sample, all in the company of Scotch Library Ambassadors who are at the ready to assist guests in their selections. Cheers!

offer the best interest rates for primary residences, and the lending guidelines are less stringent. In order for a home to qualify as your primary residence, you must reside in it either full time or the majority of the time. If you own more than one home, a lender may ask for supporting documentation to prove that the home in question truly is your primary residence. Second Home – Basically this means your vacation home that is at least 50 miles away from your primary home. Of course, you may have multiple “second” homes, but that is how it is named in the lending industry. Second-home financing will be a bit more rigorous with more guidelines to meet and a higher interest rate. In the eyes of the lender, if a borrower becomes distressed, it is more likely that the borrower would default on their second-home loan before they would on their primary residence. Therefore, the lender’s potential risk is higher. Investment Property – A home held in this way is intended to be used for income, such as fix-and-flips and rental properties, rather than for personal use by the owner. Investment properties come with the most risk for the lender. Not only is it more likely that a borrower would default on an investment property first, but the financial risk the owner is taking, the potential responsibility of serving as a landlord, and the fact that someone else other than a homeowner with a vested interest is living in the property is taken into consideration. Investment property loans are the hardest to qualify for and will have more restrictive down-payment requirements, loan-to-value ratios

HappilyEverAfterLeague.org WHAT THEY DO: With a mission to support Arizona mothers undergoing treatment of, and recovering from, cancer; Happily Ever After League (HEAL) has kept its goal since its inception in 2004 of never turning away a qualifying mom in need. With financial assistance to help offset costs of cancer recovery, and emotional support provided with monthly social outings and outreach, HEAL has positively impacted the lives of thousands of Arizona families. One of the cornerstones of HEAL’s legacy is The HEALing House. This home serves as a gathering place and a safe, warm environment for mothers and their families to come together in search of camaraderie and support. Over the years, HEAL has established a number of programs at the House such as Mommy & Me Tea, holiday parties, Giving Thanks Day, and spa days where volunteers come to offer beauty treatments and pampering to cancer patients.
