Resident Profile Nancy and Steven Fontaine
We have been married 44 years, we met in High School in Pomona, CA. and
have two children, Jason and Elizabeth.
After growing up in Southern California we decided to raise our family in
Northern CA. So in 1979 we moved our family to Rohnert Park.
While our children were growing up we held full time jobs while also owning
our own Woodworking Business and then a Party Decorating Business.
We had been married for 23 years when we began dancing in Sonoma County
CA. in 1996. We thought it would be a fun activity to share since the kids were
getting older and developing their own interests. We took a Beginning Country
2 Step class and fell in love with dancing! We took a lot of different classes the
first year and then started assisting our instructor with his classes. He then
trained us to be instructors and we taught at his studio for 8 years.
We then decided that the kids were grown, and we wanted a new adventure! So we moved to Roseville CA in 2003
and began the idea of opening our own studio. We opened our first dance studio in 2007. Three and a half years later
we needed a larger space to accommodate our business so we moved our location and we taught there for 5 and a
half more years. We taught all of the ballroom dances, country dancing, and Latin as well as many other dances. We
held weekly dances at our studio and had many special events…We loved having our own business!
In 2017 we decided it was time for another new adventure! So we started looking around for a place to retire. We
made several trips to various places and finally decided that we really liked Sun City Festival the best. We felt very at
home here so we put our house up for sale and proceeded to pack up for our move. It didn’t happen right away but
we finally sold our home and came back to find a home here at Sun City Festival. We found the perfect home in just
a few days and we moved here in April of 2018, We love our neighborhood here and are enjoying evening bike rides,
walking, and swimming, We both love many kinds of art, travel, gardening and of course, dancing.
Our Children are still in CA and we look forward to them coming to see our new home here and showing them some of
the local sites in Arizona. We are Grandma and Grandpa to one grandson and he will love the pool here!
We look forward to meeting and making lots of new friends at Sun City Festival and exploring our interests within and
around the community here.

KEEPING YOUR COOL
Now that hot
weather has
arrived, odds
of heat-related
illness increase
substantially.
Heat-related
illness can
be as minor
as fatigue
and muscle
cramps, or as major as death. The
best treatment for heat-induced ill-
ness is prevention. Nearly all heat-
related problems are preventable.
Prolonged exposure to extreme heat
begins a cascade of worsening prob-
lems in the body.
Two of the body’s main
methods of cooling are radiation and
evaporation. In radiation, the body’s
normal heat production, and in-
creased heat of exercise, radiates into
the surrounding atmosphere. When
the air is hot, less heat is carried away
from the body. During evaporation,
sweat formed on the skin evaporates
into the air and cools the skin as it
dries. In high humidity and extreme
heat, evaporation is less effective.
Higher sweat production leads to de-
hydration and to less effective cooling.
During exercise, radiation is
accomplished via opening of blood
by Chuck Eier, M.S. C.S.C..
Fitness/Wellness Director
vessels near the surface of the skin
and shunting of blood to the surface.
During this shunting process, blood
is moved from the brain and internal
organs leading to potential fainting
and organ damage or failure. In some
conditions of extreme heat, this can
lead to the body’s absorption of heat
rather than radiation.
Medications such as diuret-
ics and blood thinners magnify the
effects of heat on the body. These
medications can result in heat-related
problems occurring more quickly and
easily. Age also plays a role in heat
(in)tolerance. As we get older, our
thirst response is muted leading to
less fluid consumption. And, an older
body is slower to restore fluid balance
after heat exposure. Symptoms of
heat-related illness can be extreme
thirst, headache, lightheadedness,
nausea and vomiting, involuntary
muscle contraction, and fainting.
More importantly, the best
way to prevent heat-related illness is
to drink plenty of non-diuretic fluids.
Fluid consumption should be ongoing
throughout every day and not lim-
ited to times of heat exposure. Most
research recommends approximately
2.5 liters (about 2.6 quarts) of water
per day for most adults-the minimum
requirement for daily living. Heat
News
exposure and exercise increase a per-
son’s needs to a level far beyond the
minimum requirement. For each ad-
ditional 1,000 calories burned beyond
the typical 2,000 per day, water needs
increase by 35-40 ounces. American
College of Sports Medicine (ACSM)
recommends 500 ml (17 ounces) of
water consumption two hours prior
to exercise. During exercise, ACSM
recommends 150 ml (about 5 oz) of
water every fifteen minutes. During
exercise in very hot or very humid
conditions, water demands for cool-
ing the body are even greater. From
a weight perspective, 16 ounces of
water should be consumed for every
pound of body weight lost during
exercise. A simple rule of thumb is to
produce clear, frequent urine.
Great ways to avoid heat
illness are to limit outdoor time to
cooler periods of the day and wear
light-colored, loose-fitting, moisture-
wicking clothing. Light colors will
reflect heat. Breathable fabric helps
perspiration evaporate from the skin
more quickly and easily.
During this time of extreme
temperatures, heat-related illness is
easily prevented through fluid con-
sumption, proper dress, and timing of
heat exposure.
