I almost feel sorry for Scott Somers.
Heâs the new CEO at Green Valley Recreation; he starts Jan. 4.
Somersâ hiring was, by any measure, a big mess. The board interviewed him without knowing about (or acknowledging) a lawsuit surrounding his actions that cost his employer about $700,000.
Once the word was out, there were two rules laid down by the search committee:
1. Donât ask him about it during the interview. (Each board member was given three vetted questions. No going off script.)
2. If he brings it up, let him spin it anyway he wants. He did, and he did. GVRâs response? âNo problem here!â

For Immediate Release:
Two Green Valley residents have announced that they are candidates for the Green Valley Recreation (GVR) board. Voting will take place in February-March 2021. In order to be on the ballot, each candidate must secure at least 200 qualifying signatures on a valid petition by the end of January.
Candidate Bart Hillyer, who resides full-time with his wife, Georgia, in Santa Rita Springs, has been in Green Valley for about two years, after moving here from southern Indiana. “We love living here,” says Bart, “there’s just nowhere else in America that offers so much value for retirees.”
