Flu Shots and More Featured at Second
Annual Siena Health Fair
October 27, 2002
On Saturday, October 19, more than 400 Siena residents participated in
the second annual Siena Health Fair. Sponsored by the Summerlin Hospital &
Medical Center and hosted by the Siena Community Association, the Health
Fair was held from 8:00-11:00 a.m. in the social center.
"We had a wonderful turn out. In addition to appreciating that they
didn’t have to stand in line at the drug store to get their flu shot, our
residents had the opportunity to meet with a variety of medical and service
providers," Wayne Ireland, Siena’s director of fitness.
Some of the services that were available were hearing screenings, blood
pressure checks, diabetes screenings and a variety of blood tests including
CBC, Chemistry 7, Lipid Profile, HIV, Blood Type, Basic Iron Studies,
Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA), Glucose, Liver and Glycohemnoglobin.
Several health care providers also were available including a dentist,
physical therapist, chiropractor and podiatrist.
"The Health Fair is a great event for our residents and we look forward
to hosting it for many years to come," said Ireland.
Located on the southwest edge of the Las Vegas Valley, within the
award-winning master planned community of Summerlin, lies the adult golf
community of Siena.
According to Paul Smith, Sunrise Colony Company senior vice president and
project manager for the Siena development, Sunrise Colony Company
specializes in the development of resort style communities, with more than
30 years of experience throughout the Southwest. "At Siena, we’ve taken our
company’s legendary resort community concept and applied it to an adult
community. Within its guarded gates, private streets, and patrolled
neighborhoods, Siena’s residents have access to an unparalleled variety of
recreational and social activities to enjoy including golf, swimming,
dancing, bocce ball, tennis, craft clubs, social organizations and much
more."
The 13,500-square-foot Siena Golf Clubhouse, which anchors the Lee
Schmidt and Brian Curley-designed, 18-hole, par-72 daily-fee championship
Siena Golf Club, is strategically positioned to offer magnificent views of
the 18th hole, Lake Siena and the Las Vegas skyline. The fully
equipped golf pro shop offers the latest in fashionable sportswear and
accessories along with a full range of state-of-the-art golf equipment. A
full-service restaurant, The Siena Bistro, features indoor and patio dining
in a relaxed and casual atmosphere. And for special occasions, The Bistro
serves as a perfect venue for social gatherings and receptions. The Siena
Golf Club is open to all ages however, Siena residents are extended special

The community’s 15,900-square-foot Tuscan-themed Health & Fitness Center
features an indoor swim pavilion with a 25-meter pool, spa and series of
two-story windows overlooking the golf course, outdoor resort pool and spa,
lighted tennis and bocce ball courts. The fitness center is equipped with
the latest cardiovascular and weight-training equipment, exercise rooms, and
private saunas and steam rooms. There is also a comprehensive Wellness

Siena’s new 39,000-square-foot Community Center recently broke ground. A
