Wouldn’t it be great if the SaddleBrooke Dance Club (SBDC) had sponsors? That was the suggestion made, and Steve Kartsonis (husband of Vice President Nan Kartsonis) turned that suggestion into a reality. But Steve didn’t just pick up the ball. He scored touchdowns.
Our first and largest sponsor is Ann Fraley of Long Realty. Ann is a premier realtor in SaddleBrooke who made a commitment to our club and is dedicated to making our community an even better place in which to live. Ann really knows SaddleBrooke, because she lives here.
Desert Life Pharmacy: We are so fortunate to have a pharmacy right here in SaddleBrooke. Many residents have given pharmacist Brianne Spaeth and her staff the opportunity to give them a “shot in the arm.” Desert Life Pharmacy is returning the favor by giving SBDC one with their sponsorship.
Golf Cars of Arizona: If you are in the market for a golf cart or e-bike, this is the place to go. Their support keeps us rolling smoothly on the path to dance and fun.
SC Care & Associates: Providing financial advisory services, Gary and Becky Kueker know the needs of SaddleBrookers because, like Ann Fraley, they are also residents.
Closet Trends: Providing custom closets and cabinetry, along with complimentary in-home consultations, their support adds a touch of elegance to our program.
Club Pilates: Committed to the health and well-being of our community, this facility offers a fantastic fitness solution and participates in the United Healthcare Renew Active program.
Nest in the Desert: Located at the intersection of Oracle and Magee, this is your go-to store for beautiful home décor. Their support will add a dash of style to the sponsorship program.
Vantage West Credit Union: Offering a wide range of services and located in nearby Catalina, Vantage West is sure to be a trusted financial partner.
Danswest: Helping our members dance with grace and comfort, Danswest, located on East Speedway, carries a large selection of ballroom shoes for both men and women.
And now a little background on Steve Kartsonis. Steve and Nan moved to SaddleBrooke six years ago from Kansas City. Before retiring, Steve forged a highly successful career in sales, proving his exceptional skills in building connections and fostering partnerships. His efforts have played a pivotal role in the success of our new sponsorship program. Besides dancing, Steve enjoys golf and playing poker, and serves as the rep for Unit 2.
