New Stores at Smith's
The new retail spaces are going up fast in the Smith’s center. The Fitness place is HUGE! Also, it looks like there are more storefronts than names on the sign, so we’re going to have some. surprises. We were hoping for a Trader Joe’s but no such luck.
The New ALDI Store
The new Aldi store still hasn’t opened and they seem to keep moving back the date. Current statement says April 24th, so we’ll see if that holds true. Looking inside it appears to be a little larger that a big Trader Joe’s which, by the way, is the company that owns them, although they function completely separately.

Sidewalk Repair Update
You may have seen sidewalk panels in your neighborhood area that are being repoured and widened (see attached photo for reference). This is being required by the City of Henderson to meet planned ADA accommodations for wheelchair turnabout accessibility of 5X5 feet. The City of Henderson requires that every 200 feet within the community must accommodate a wheelchair turnabout. Lennar is working with the City of Henderson to not disrupt any existing landscaping as much as possible during this mandatory process. As always, we appreciate your patience during this punch list work being done by Lennar to meet their requirements with the City of Henderson.
But the Pool is Closed!
As of Friday, March 7th at 4:00PM the outdoor pool and spa is closed to begin draining for demo. For your safety during the repairs the entire pool area will be CLOSED including the BBQ and Putting Green areas. FOBs will be inactive during this time. Any resident found within the pool areas during construction closures may be subject to a violation. Please do not attempt to enter the pool areas until notified they have been reopened. We will continue to update the community with reopening dates as we are made aware.Heritage at Cadence Management Team

Dr. Kildaire (Richard Chamberlain) Dies
Depending on your age, you'll remember this as one of the most popular TV shows in your youth. Richard Chamberlain died March 29th in Hawaii at the age of 90 due to complications from a stroke. His life-long partner was by his side.
Oh no! Not southwest!
Tickets bought on or after May 28th will NOT include the famous "Two Bags Fly Free" that has been Southwest's mantra for 20 years. No mention of the cost per bag yet, but some airlines are charging as much as $50. Wait and see.
Hard to believe, but true.
Some of us older folks might remember this. In the 1950s. One of the duties of the nurses, - besides waking you up three times a night - was to daily go around to patient rooms to see if anyone needed some Camels or maybe some Pall Malls. Yup... in addition to candy and snacks, folks could not only get cigarettes, but they could smoke while in bed in the hospital. Good times. (cough cough)
Sell By - Use By - Best By - Freeze By - You Could Die
Depending on where you live, you may see different dates on your food and each has a different purpose. Here’s a bit of clarity based on information from the Institute of Food Technologists (IFT) and FSIS.2
- Best If Used By/Before: This is a quality assurance date and serves as a “suggestion” for when the taste and quality of food are at their peak. It is not a purchase or safety date.
- Use By: This is the suggested date by when you should eat the food. But just because it’s a day or two past the use-by date doesn’t mean that consuming it will make you sick, although you should evaluate the quality of the food yourself after this time. It is not a safety date, except when used on infant formula.
- Sell By: This is not a safety date, but rather a date for retailers that helps them determine how long an item should remain on the shelf. According to the IFT, “one-third of a product’s shelf-life remains after the sell-by date for the consumer to use at home.”2
- Freeze By: According to the USDA, this date indicates when a product should be frozen to maintain peak quality. It is not a purchase or safety date.
