Amplifying Community Voices Through Strategic Partnership
A message from Joan Trueman, Director of Sales & Marketing, Stroll Biltmore
As we move into the vibrant spring season, there is a renewed sense of energy and opportunity throughout the Biltmore area. It is a time when our community continues to grow, connect, and support one another in meaningful ways. The Biltmore Area Partnership has long stood as a pillar of that collaboration, bringing together leaders and businesses committed to strengthening the fabric of our neighborhood.
At Stroll Biltmore, we share that same mission. Our publication was created to share stories about the residents, businesses, and leaders who make this community so exceptional.

Message From Arizona State Treasurer Kimberly Yee
Celebrating National 529 Day and Financial Literacy Across Arizona
Greetings Biltmore Area Partnership Members,
Later this month, Treasurer Kimberly Yee will be celebrating National 529 Day on May 29 with a very special surprise. May 29th is dedicated to raising awareness about the benefits of saving for future education expenses through a 529 plan.
Since Treasurer Yee began administering the AZ529 Education Savings Plan in 2019, 70,472 new accounts have been opened — a clear sign that more Arizona students and families are actively investing in their future higher education. This growth reflects a deeper understanding of the importance of financial planning for education.
As National 529 Day is celebrated, it’s important to encourage Arizona families to take advantage of an AZ529 plan. By starting the saving process early, families can ease the financial burden of higher education and pave the way for future generations to pursue their dreams without overwhelming debt. For more information, visit AZ529.gov.
In April, Treasurer Yee had the pleasure of joining AZ Public Media (an NPR affiliate) with hosts Nicole Cox and Linda O’Bryon for a special Financial Literacy Month episode to discuss financial literacy efforts and the AZ529 Education Savings Plan.
As always, if you or your organization requires assistance, please don’t hesitate to contact the Arizona Treasurer’s Office at (602) 542-7800 or aztreasury.gov/contact.
Sincerely,
Arizona Treasurer Kimberly Yee

Visit Phoenix – May 2026 Events 🎉
The Biltmore Area is part of one of the country’s most dynamic visitor destinations. Each month, Visit Phoenix shares experiences, itineraries, and community partnerships that bring the city to life for residents and guests alike. Here’s what’s worth discovering this May.
🐎 Float the Salt River — A Phoenix Tradition
Tubing the Salt River is one of the most iconic ways to experience the Sonoran Desert. Float quietly past towering saguaros, keep an eye out for wild horses grazing on the banks, watch herons and kingfishers skim the water, and let the slow current do the rest. It’s a Phoenix tradition every summer — and a perfect Arizona-resident weekend reset.
This year, Visit Phoenix and Visit Mesa are celebrating the Salt River with a limited-edition graphic tee and tank. A portion of proceeds from every shirt sold is donated to Natural Restorations, the nonprofit that removes trash, graffiti, and anything foreign to the environment on the Salt River — keeping this Phoenix tradition wild and beautiful for the next generation.
