With the summer season underway, the long, sunny days can be filled with backyard cookouts, baseball games, camping trips, fishing excursions and so much more. To gather information for this issue, we looked to the experts: the men of Henderson! You might even recognize a few faces. We’ve also included a slick Volvo XC40, which has all the bells and whistles. And let's not forget styling tips for the upcoming season.

“I usually dropped a finger in my bull rope, which meant that your hand was locked into the rope,” Tom explains. “The moment the chute opened, there was some big eruption.” Skulls of man and beast collided, knocking Tom into unconsciousness. Bound tightly by the rope across the middle of the bull’s back, Tom’s hand pinned him to the thrashing animal. “So now my legs and stuff are underneath his hind legs … he’s bucking and stepping on me quite hard.” He admits it is the closest he ever came to death inside a rodeo arena.

thrills, the rise and a fall of a mountain feeds the soul of a man yearning for peace. “Nancy and I would come up to Montana in the summertime and go rodeoing out here,” he says. The appeal of the Wild West beckoned, and they loaded all of their possessions into an old pickup truck. Interestingly, the truck they used to begin their life in Montana was bought with money earned from muskrat pelts, a small hint at the future that lay in store for the Oars. “We had no idea what we were getting into or how I was gonna make a living out here.

It would just take a little bit more luck to turn his tanning into a lucrative business. “Black Powder Rendezvous, they called them,” Tom says. “They were recreations of the old fur-trade days in the Rocky Mountains when all the trappers would meet in one spot.”

Feeling well at home amongst this like-minded crowd of mountain men, he finally discovered a niche for his handmade wares. And when Tom does something, he is certain to do it well. “The most prestigious clothing that you could wear at one of these rendezvous is brain-tanned buckskin clothing,” he says. Patrons immediately sensed the incomparable quality of the brain-tanned hides Tom provided, and the hides began to sell at a remarkable rate. Tom found his peace. Together, Tom and Nancy defied the odds. Danger lurked, isolation taunted, and the bitter chill of Montana winter bore down upon them;

When asked how he copes with the steady current of visitors making the trek to his property each summer, he just shrugs and confesses he would rather people like him than hate him. At the age of 76, he continues to toil endlessly on his craft and their survival in the mountains. “Amazing life,” he surmises. “I’ve enjoyed every bit of it. And as long as I can still do it, hell, I’m gonna do it.”

Green Valley Lifestyle | June 2019

THE POWERFUL AND DYNAMIC VOLVO XC40 DEMANDS YOUR FULL ATTENTION. A subcompact crossover with futuristic tech and design, the XC40 perfectly embodies modern Volvos. An upscale charm practically oozes from this model, while still throwing its own unique element into the mix. Every detail matters, and every model XC40 carries the cutting edge in technology, such as the inductive charging for smartphone and parking-assisted pilot with a front and rear park assistance. On the flip side, however, the comfort of traditionalism with the interior lighting specially designed by Kai Piippo certainly isn’t afraid to show itself. There are three trim designs to custom tailor your experience: the contemporary Momentum; the sophisticated Inscription; and our personal favorite, the sporty and stylish R-Design. It is coming standard with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder contemporary beast of an engine that

“I grew up in the Green Valley area (before it had a name) and spent my summers working in the field for my father’s company, Merlin Contracting. I have great memories of one home that my father built near Pecos Road and Sunset. Tommy “The Hitman” Hearns lived in the mansion next door to the construction site, and Tommy had a monkey that was tethered by a long leash in his backyard. While I was working on the job site, the monkey would climb over the fence and hysterically scream at us. I never dared to get close, but it was a great distraction to make the day’s work pass. Only in Las Vegas, right? To this day, I am extremely grateful for all the time I spent as a kid on those job sites. I always enjoyed the hard work and the feeling of satisfaction you get as a new home is constructed. My father never pushed me to work in the construction industry; he just taught me about work ethic and provided a space for me to learn. The specific message he did instill in me was to always be the best. I remember him saying repeatedly, ‘It doesn’t matter what you choose to do in life. Just be the best.’ Such a simple thought, but it still motivates me every day, and I can’t imagine ever working toward a lesser goal!”

John Gafford Br o k er /O w n er , S im ply V eg a s R e a l Es tat e “Assume nothing in business. After appearing on NBC’s The Apprentice, I was contacted by a casting director. The NBC brass had requested I fly to New York and read for the lead role in a new sitcom. I am not an actor, but hey, why not? They sent me the script, and the lead part was described as ‘mid-30s, overweight, definitely not eye candy.’ Ouch. There was a smaller part described as ‘tall, loud, funny, think Vince Vaughn.’ Many people have made this comparison to me (which was awesome when Swingers came out; not so much when Psycho did). I assumed they made an error. So when I walked into that casting office at NBC, I informed them, ‘I think you guys may have made a mistake. I should be Pete.’ The casting director leaned over her coffee and with as much disdain as she could muster said, ‘You can read for whatever you want.’ Apparently, those character descriptions in scripts are not really that important. By assuming they were mistaken and changing roles, I blew an opportunity that many ‘actual’ actors would have killed for. Lesson learned. In business, I never assume I know what my clients want. I listen to their wants and needs first and then react with the best way to help them.”

O w n er a n d CEO , L a s V eg a s L igh t s FC "I’m originally from Kansas City before my family slowly started migrating to Las Vegas about 20 years ago. I’m a big believer in creating audaciously big goals and working like heck to find ways to achieve them. I had several mentors when I was younger that really taught me about 'dreaming big' which I am now so appreciative of. I’ve always loved when people say it can’t be done when they really meant 'That’s gonna take a lot of hard work.' Having worked in a variety of roles in professional soccer in the last 25 years (e.g., intern for Major League Soccer

league office, two FIFA Women’s World Cups), I’ve seen firsthand the enormous growth of soccer in America and how many 'mainstream' people used to laugh at the sport in the '90s that now find soccer to be their kids’ favorite sport. It’s fun to be part of a movement that changes views and creates fun—and that’s exactly what I think pro sports, including soccer, should be about: the fun. That led me to always want to start a new professional soccer team someday. Really, it’s been a goal of mine for decades. The fact I got to do it in my adopted hometown with my family’s support makes it even more special. Starting a pro team from scratch isn’t easy, but it’s also the greatest feeling knowing that local fans are coming together to build something that will be experienced for generations to come. In just over a season, we are averaging more than 8,000 fans per match in downtown Las Vegas. We’ve brought a new life and energy to Cashman Field that is opening eyes across the valley.

your first ‘no.’ If you’re determined about what you want, ‘no’ is not an option. I tell people that to be successful, you must be determined. You just do what you need to do to make sure things happen, and then you don’t ever quit. An example that comes to mind involves the lengthy battle I’ve fought with former Henderson leaders. A previous city planner of Henderson once told me, ‘What we want to have happen is we want to build out Green Valley first, and then you would come in [as a developer] next.’ I said, ‘Well that’s not something you shared with me when I bought the property, and that is not acceptable.’ The ensuing battle with the city lasted maybe 20 years. We prevailed because we outlasted them. Claire and I didn’t quit. It wasn’t an option. When people ask for my advice, that’s the first thing that comes to mind. They don’t beat you if you don’t quit. Throwing in the towel is simply never an option.”

The quiff

what it is Closely related to the pompadour, the quiff haircut requires longer hair in the front and shorter hair in the back. The longer hair in the front is brushed upward and back from the forehead and away from the face. This look can be sleek and shiny for a classic look or texturized and matte for a modern take. ASK FOR Short sides and a long textured top. Be sure enough hair is left on top to brush back instead of standing straight up.
