Arizona's Jennifer Madgic will be doing a series of articles about the people who make Park City their summer home. by JENNIFER MADGIC Record contributing writer Undoubtedly you've seen them before. Characterized by maroon license plates from the state bordering Utah's southern-most boundary, these foreign vehicles carry very special passengers across the blistery deserts of Arizona and Utah to Park City each summer, leaving behind them clouds of dry, gritty dust, and temperatures that peel the wallpaper right off your living room walls. These individuals make a trade each summer. A trade that involves wagering cactus for pine trees, swimming pools for lakes and streams, and brown golf courses for green ones. That isn't to say that the golf courses in Sun City, Sun City West and Mesa, Ariz., are not green during dur-ing the summer months, they're just hot often it's too hot to venture out of the shade during mid-day. If you are unfamiliar with the likes of these southern communities, your break I jfi ouppiy aim - 4819 ".,.-- TTHiKB (BdDlldlcBim CBaum loss turns grandparents most likely are not. It is these towns that many older folks go to spend their golden years their years of freedom from the rigors of raising families, working 9-to-5 jobs, and facing the apprehension of midlife mid-life doubts and insecurities. Retirement Retire-ment is the name of the game in these communities and catering to their recipients is of utmost priority. These towns are close to being ideal locations to pack your bags for if you enjoy winter temperatures hovering in the mid-seventies and eighties. If the lure of the putting green gets you out of bed before the sun warms up Old Town, and if you find yourself succumbing to hibernation-type tendencies while the rest of Park City skis in the "best powder in the world," you just may be the type the Sun City Chamber of Commerce is vying for granted you are over 50. However, come June, you may find yourself packing your bags again and heading back Interstate-15 along with others yearning yearn-ing for a cool mountain breeze. These visitors bestow upon Park City each summer their personalities, per-sonalities, their likes and their dislikes. I've always liked older people for fast "tv creek junction 5iS?

Grandparents have always been representative of good things. They listen to all problems and give answers that always seem to make sense. They buy presents and gifts, and are estatic when the younger relatives give them simple homemade treasures. When mom isn't around, Granny scoops huge mounds of ice cream into in-to bowls for dinner. Grandparents are great for cam-pouts cam-pouts and late-night adventures. Trips to the store always mean getting get-ting things that the younger generation genera-tion likes. Grandparents know everything and with grandparents, youngsters always have a good time. These feelings towards grandparents grand-parents never leave a child, even after they've grown up. The memories of grandparents are a treasure, and with those in mind one I couldn't help notice the augmentation of seniors around town in the early part of the summer. sum-mer.

Traveling couple likes summer in mountains Phillis Paper is from Sun City West, Ariz. She has worked as a contributing con-tributing writer for "The Splash" newspaper in Sun City West. She will be writing a series of profiles about some of the interesting folks who visit Park City during the summer months. by PHILLIS PAPER Record contributing writer "Our biggest problem," laughed Lois and Irv Mauer, "is that we just don't have enough time." The Mauers, Park City residents the past nine years, are avid participants par-ticipants in tennis and skiing, love to read and enjoy the theater. "Lois golfs, also," said Irv, "and she's a super gourmet cook." They entertain enter-tain often. Lois, a slim, striking blonde, taught 4th grade in Los Angeles before retirement. Irv, formerly owned a rental equipment business in Canada. He presently works in private investments. They love to travel and are planning a trip to the Scandanavian Countries. "We're members of a group sponsored spon-sored by the 'People to People Sports Committee,'" said Lois. "This organization was started by General Eisenhower and consists of tennis, golf and various professional groups. We're playing tennis and we'll attend parties hosted by the private tennis clubs. It's loads of fun. "This concept really stimulates international in-ternational friendship," added Irv. mi e -Miimt hard to miss. A pair of Mesa residents live next door to me. They keep tabs on Peanut, my cat. They always have a pleasant word for me when I return home from work. They are amazed that I can actually run at this altitude, and they ask if my name is ready Madgic. And without sounding too corny, I must admit that I feel secure having them around. I find the addition of seniors in our community to be a pleasant accompaniment accom-paniment to a town that is primarily dominated by a younger generation. Old people can be a refreshing breach from the hassles of every day life. They see life from a different perspective than the rest of us because they have experienced many of the hassles already. Their advice is meaningful because time is backing them up and they've probably been through it all before. The seniors I have met around town have been wonderfully inspiring inspir-ing individuals. They give their undivided un-divided attention to the world around them and they take advantage advan-tage of their time to appreciate the little things that life in Park City or anywhere else has to offer. it jt si, ft , f v i ( Sena Taylor "Our first trip in 1980 was to Europe, in,1984 we went to South Africa and now Scandinavia and on to Leningrad.

The Maueers hastened to add, "we think our friends in Park City are the greatest, too. We love the city and all it has to offer the ideal climate for tennis in the summer and skiing in the winter, and our friends here mean everything to us. The Mauers have been married 10 years. Lois's daughter. Michelle Thille, formerly lived in Park City. Lois's son lives in Hawaii. Irv's daughter is an actress and drama teacher in Canada. One of his sons is a doctor, the other a social worker. "We live part of the year in Palm Desert, California," said Lois, "but oh, all I can think about now is meeting our group in Copenhagen. Did we mention that Admiral Halsey's son, Bill Halsey, heads the West Coast organization? And that we have the same European tour guide for every trip?" The group acts as an unofficial goodwill ambassador. Lois and Irv are always looking ahead. Future trips include Australia and New Zealand. Their lust for life and joy in each other is invigorating.
