Image Up Advertising & Design

| SUN LAKES LIFESTYLES | FEBRUARY 2026 | 13 The Marketing Advisory Committee has been very busy in recommending several ideas to the Master Board, all of which have been approved. • We have designed a tri-fold advertising brochure which is being distributed to real estate agents. You can find one in the Lobby. • We have a billboard on the westbound 10 Freeway between Sunset Blvd. and Highland Springs exit. Hopefully, you have seen it. • We are advertising in the Inland Empire Magazine, 2026 Best of the Inland Empire edition. They have over 155,000+ readers. They are celebrating 50 years of being the Inland Empire's premier lifestyle, entertainment and business resource. • We are also advertising in the Inland Empire Hotel Book. This book is placed in 4,000 upscale rooms across the region. ~ Michele Walter, Chairperson, (951) 202-8009 Marketing Advisory REAL ESTATE STATS: 185 properties closed in 2025 • 164 homes/prices from $275,000 to $600,000 • 21 condos/prices from $255,000 to $369,900 DECEMBER STATS: December closings • 7 homes/prices from $354,500 to $520,000 • No condos Active or coming soon 69 • 52 homes/prices $322,000 to $539,000 • 17 condos/prices $229,900 to $365,000 In escrow 17 • 15 homes/prices from $350,000 to $515,000 • 2 condos/prices from $315,000 to $330,000 Lifestyles Magazine is the resource most residents use to find out what's going on in our community. At 80 pages, it includes pictures from residents plus articles from the Master Board, Delegate Assembly, FirstService, CCL, the golf pro, and all the advisory committees. Clubs and groups send articles and photos about their activities to Sunlakesnews@yahoo.com by the sixth of each month. The Lifestyles Advisory Committee meets on the seventh of each month, unless otherwise specified, to review and edit the articles that are submitted for each month's issue of the magazine. We also publish want ads and for sale items from residents at no cost and hide a monthly joke for residents to find. Responses to our "Get the Joke" contest are put in a hat and a winner is randomly drawn, earning a gift card as a prize. We publish a special "Friends We Will Miss" section to keep friends and neighbors informed when a resident passes away. On page 2, we present a useful guide that includes the contact information for our clubhouses, Master Board members, administrative staff, advisory committee chairpersons, as well as when and where the committees meet, hours of Sun Lakes operation, and other valuable information. Photographs taken by residents of areas within Sun Lakes are used on the magazine cover. We also post pictures of residents on their vacations or of their beloved pets. If you're good at proofreading and are interested in joining us, please fill out a volunteer application form that you can get in the Main Clubhouse Lobby, and we'll put you on our waiting list. ~ Linda Vieira, lvieira@eltree.com Lifestyles Advisory WINNERS!
