ENDLESS SUMMER CAPTAIN Rudy Kronauge
We are very pleased to announce our newest enhancement project for the club Our tennis facility will be undergoing a new Har Tru Hydrocourt underground watering system for all six tennis courts This will greatly improve the overall conditions of the tennis courts and provide a consistent and safer environment for tennis play This Hydrocourt system will also eliminate the need for aboveground watering systems and reliance on natural rainfall This project will commence in early September and will be expected to be completed by years end During the duration of the project we will be making every attempt to keep three courts in operation the entire time There will be some directives as to access/parking and pathways as we phase through the project Please follow the directives in place at any given time We appreciate your understanding and patience during this much needed improvement This project will certainly transform our existing tennis courts into something very special for years to come

HEALTHY LIFESTYLE & LONGEVITY
HEALTHY LIFESTYLE: 5 KEYS TO A LONGER LIFE
2. Healthy physical activity level, which was measured as at least 30 minutes per day of moderate to vigorous activity daily.
5. Moderate alcohol intake, which was measured as between 5 and 15 grams per day for women, and 5 to 30 grams per day for men. Generally, one drink contains about 14 grams of pure alcohol. That’s 12 ounces of regular beer, 5 ounces of wine, or 1.5 ounces of distilled spirits.
4. Smoking, well, there is no healthy amount of smoking. "Healthy" here meant never having smoked.
Researchers also looked at data on age, ethnicity, and medication use, as well as comparison data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Wide Ranging Online Data for Epidemiologic Research
What is a healthy lifestyle, exactly? These five areas were chosen because prior studies have shown them to have a large impact on risk of premature death Here is how these healthy habits were defined and measured:
1. Healthy diet, which was calculated and rated based on the reported intake of healthy foods like vegetables, fruits, nuts, whole grains, healthy fats, and omega 3 fatty acids, and unhealthy foods like red and processed meats, sugar sweetened beverages, trans fat, and sodium.
Does a healthy lifestyle make a difference?
3. Healthy body weight, defined as a normal body mass index (BMI), which is between 18.5 and 24.9.

WELLNESS
The researchers looked at NHS and HPFS data on diet, physical activity, body weight, smoking, and alcohol consumption that had been collected from regularly administered, validated questionnaires
As it turns out, healthy habits make a big difference According to this analysis, people who met criteria for all five habits enjoyed significantly, impressively longer lives than those who had none: 14 years for women and 12 years for men (if they had these habits at age 50) People who had none of these habits were far more likely to die prematurely from cancer or cardiovascular disease
Researchers from the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health conducted a massive study of the impact of health habits on life expectancy, using data from the well known Nurses’ Health Study (NHS) and the Health Professionals Follow up Study (HPFS) This means that they had data on a huge number of people over a very long period of time The NHS included over 78,000 women and followed them from 1980 to 2014 The HPFS included over 40,000 men and followed them from 1986 to 2014. This is over 120,000 participants, 34 years of data for women, and 28 years of data for men.
