We are Who's Who Singles Arizona.

Our members form lifetime friendships as we have become one big family. For more information about Who's Who Singles Arizona and how we started, please go to our About Us Page. A NOTE from the WWSA PresidentPrez Says
It is always rewarding to have the holiday season roll around so we can recognize the contributions our members have made to the club. The nation has been through a rough two years but that has not slowed the efforts of our members as we have continued to meld together in a homogeneous organization with full support for each other. That has enhanced our lives, way beyond what any of us might think. Let’s face it, we are brothers and sisters and the love shown in our activities is to be recognized as something we all need and towards which we strive. There are not many organizations that can say that. I am saying it for this organization. Special accolades go to Anne Klink for shepherding the dinner dances with support from Jo Pulvermacher, Terry Samuels, Nancy Hollack, Nancy Hepburn and Betty Shimek. Enthusiastic Bill Corbett has performed admirably by organizing and issuing the newsletter each month keeping us all informed about club activities. Bill also oversees the golf agenda to make sure no one has any yips in our golf lives. Louann Wipperfurth oversees the rosters for all related activities, from the voice blast to the member, yellow books. Jim Gallagher keeps tab on the bylaws and makes suggestions when changes are in need. Always social and always creative, Nancy Hollack, organizes Singles Mingle and shows compassion to those of us who are ailing. Helene McKinstry has done an admiral job in keeping track of the venues and the music we enjoy for weekly Camaraderies. I have fun with the voice blast! Nancy Chaimson knows everything about everyone as she manages our membership committee and enrollment of new members. You can’t keep any secrets from her but it is highly confidential with no leaks. Another Nancy. . . with a different last name is Nancy Hepburn who makes sure that there is a welcoming duo at each of our Camaraderies to welcome you. Terry Samuels sells raffle tickets and makes you smile as she snaps away with her new cell phone camera. Zelda Hittel and her Thursday bridge sessions mean a lot to those of superior intelligence and Bill Plank who loves the movies takes the lead in getting us all at the local theater for viewing. Always affable, Fred Laeuter leads fine dining and profound conversations on Saturday mornings. WOW, what a group of volunteers we harbor. I personally, and all of our members, thank you immensely. Please capture and enjoy the meaning of the holidays, however you may celebrate them! Please remember: Every box of raisins is a tragic tale of grapes that could have been wine. Phillip G.

WHY WWSA IS GOOD FOR YOUR HEALTHResearcher George Slavich, of the University of California, who studies human social genomics, says that our genes can actually be turned on or off depending on our social environments.
In his discussion on social genomics, Dr. Slavich says that social stress is a stronger predictor of chronic disease-related mortality than physical inactivity, alcohol use, and smoking. This is powerful. It means that social connection matters. The people we choose to spend time with matters! I also know that creating healthy community is not effortless. Many of my patients tell me that lack of support is one of the biggest obstacles they face when deciding to make a lifestyle shift. I take this feedback to heart. Community is so important to me. I have seen firsthand how powerful and transformative supportive groups can be. When my patients have a support system, they are far more likely to sustain weight loss and feel better. The right community can also help you sustain lifestyle and behavior changes that are so important to long-term success, health, and happiness. Being connected to others is a necessary ingredient for health, just like food, water, air, sleep, or movement. |
We can laugh with you or without you, but it is more fun with you.

NEWS FROM ADOT MOTOR VEHICLE DIVISION DON’T GET GROUNDED
On October 1, 2020 new federal ID regulations will take effect at TSA airport security checkpoints.
The new federal rules will require air travelers to have a federally-compliant form of ID in order to pass security clearance.
Arizonans have a choice to get the Travel ID. This credential is a driver license or ID that has a gold star on the top right-hand corner, and getting one is perhaps the most convenient solution.
In order to get one, you can make an appointment at www.servicearizona.com for any MVD office. Walk-ins are also welcome. Or you may visit an Authorized Third Party driver license location.

October of 2020 will be here soon. Don't wait and don't get grounded. Get the Travel ID!
