he joke around my house was that the announcement of foreclosure on the property came only minutes after I became the new Chairman of the Board. However, as most of you are now aware, Four Seasons has a non-disturbance clause as part of their long-term management agreement with the owners of the property. This is why there has been no interruption of the exemplary services and facilities we all enjoy. GM Michael Newcombe has been quoted as saying, “We won’t so much as miss a cup of coffee.” That has most certainly been the case, and I believe the club is positioned to have its best year ever! Merely a few examples behind such optimism: • The golf courses have never been in better condition, and without a doubt, the green complexes are as fine as any in the DFW area. Chapeau to John Cunningham and his staff, as their tireless and unique efforts of maintaining TPC and Cottonwood Valley are coming up aces. • The tennis program is soaring, as there are now a record number of TCD (Tennis Competitors of Dallas) teams, and there has been a new influx of high quality players, helping to make our club an understood tennis leader in the area. • The north end swimming pool is prepared for another tremendous summer, as the Grill and Chill on Friday nights has truly become the weekly social event of the summer season. Naturally, the key to maximizing the Sports Club experience is to participate! I encourage everyone to update their member information on our website, enjoy as many events as possible, and pinch yourself that you belong to what I like to call “Hotel California”—you can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave. Have a great summer at the Club! Sincerely yours, Larry LeVan Chairman of the Board of Governors

FAIRWAY BUNKER PLAY By Tim Cusick, Director of Golf Instruction
S
olid contact with the ball is an absolute in order to be successful out of fairway bunkers. To ensure such contact, place the ball slightly back in your stance, make a ¾ back swing, turn through the shot and swing all the way to the finish. By turning through you delay the delivery of the club and help move the bottom of the downswing forward. Ultimately you want to be successful at contacting the ball first, then the sand. A secondary suggestion is to always take a club you can be successful with. The more confident you are in your club selection, the more aggressive you’ll be with your swing.
Set-up - Notice the ball is back in my stance. This will help insure solid contact.
Follow-through - My lower body has turned through and my right foot has released off the ground. A good formula to eliminate a fat shot.
Downswing - I’ve held my wristlock to maximize hitting the ball first not the sand.

THE HEAT IS ON
By John Cunningham, Director of Golf Course Operations
May 2 & 3, 2010
O
ur putting surfaces are comprised of bent grass, which is a cool season grass that thrives for most of the year here in our climate. The one time of year that the weather conditions are not favorable for bent grass growth is the dead of summer. From about the middle of May through the middle of September the soil and air temperatures are not conducive for bent grass growth.

In order to overcome the stress put on the plant during the summer months, we carefully monitor moisture, fertility and air movement. We monitor moisture in the putting surface using a moisture meter that measures VWC (volumetric water content). We apply only the necessary amount of water, as not having enough would result in stress and having too much would encourage disease and a shallow root system. Hand syringing in the afternoons when the temperatures are hot consists of using a hose and spraying water in the air directly above the turf canopy. This will temporarily cool the air temperature directly above the plant and reduce the amount of stress. Fertility applications are also closely monitored using soil and tissue analysis to maintain prescribed amounts of fertility to the plant, as not to force the plant to grow too rapidly so it can use its stored carbohydrates and energy to fight summer stress. Air movement is accomplished by the use of fans to cool the plant. The plant loses water during the heat of the day much as you or I perspire to keep cool. The application of water during the mornings “recharges” the plant and gets it ready for the day. Solid tine aerification is also used to help move gases, air and water through the soil profile. These are some of the practices that are in place to ensure we have a successful summer growing bentgrass. If you have any questions, concerns or comments please send them my way at john.cunningham@fourseasons.com. See you on the course....

SUMMER RACQUETBALL LEAGUES
TENNIS TIP
Monday Evening June 21 – August 30 4:30 p.m. – 8:30 p.m. For all levels of play
As we all know too many matches are lost because you beat yourself and not because your opponent beats you. Here are a few ideas to think about to help avoid beating yourself.
Tuesday and Thursday “Early Bird” June 22 – August 30 6:00 a.m. – 7:30 a.m. For all levels of play Arrange your own match
1. Get to know your strengths and weaknesses. If you know your high backhand is weak, never try to hit an offensive shot on it, just be satisfied to get it back in play. Similarly, if you have a weak volley, than avoid coming to the net too often, especially on a big point. During a match is not the time to work on your weaknesses.
Wednesday Morning Ladies June 23 – August 30 10:00 a.m. – 11:30 a.m. For all levels of play Saturday Morning Men’s and Women’s Doubles Racquetball June 26 – August 30 10:00 a.m. – 11:30 a.m. For all Open, A & B players
SUMMER SQUASH LEAGUES Monday Noon June 21 – August 30 11:30 a.m. – 1:30 p.m. For Advanced A or A+ players
By John Mullman, Director of Tennis Instruction and Brent Haygarth, Touring Tennis Professional
2. Play the score. This means don’t take any chances on big points, e.g. 30-30 or deuce or the first point of the game. Keep the ball away from the lines, play more crosscourt shots than down the line. Try to get your first serve in, even if you have to take something off it. Give your opponent a chance to miss. If you want to be aggressive, do it at times when the stakes aren’t too high, e.g. 15-15 or 40-15 up. 3. A good exercise is to try and make 5 shots in every rally. Once you have made 5, chances are your opponent has already missed. This is a good place to start. Once you have mastered this, you may then start thinking about offense.

Summer Recipe Tapenade Crusted Salmon and Baked Fennel First, make the Tapenade and set aside. (Tapenade can be made in advance and kept refrigerated) Second, make the baked fennel. Third, while the fennel is baking, season the salmon with salt and pepper on both sides. Sauté the salmon first. Meaning, take a nice size sauté pan that will go in the oven as well (no Plastic handles) and large enough for all the salmon. Heat your pan, add olive oil and sear your salmon, pretty side first for a minute. Take off the heat and flip over the salmon. Place some of the Tapenade on each slice and finish in the oven at 400° F. Lastly, assemble the dish by placing the salmon on top of the baked fennel. Salmon Use as fresh as possible and about 6 to 7 ounces per person. This is spring, so use wild salmon if possible. Use a lean piece, if possible, for this dish. Not the belly and not toward the head. Tail will be great, but tougher, meaning it will cook faster. Tapenade Kalamata Olive (pitted) 1 cup Garlic 2 cloves Fresh Basil 4 leaf Toasted Pine nuts 1 Tbsp Lemon Juice 2 Tbsp Caper (drained) 1 Tbsp Olive Oil 2 + tbsp Combine the first 6 ingredients in a blender and slowly drip the olive oil until desired texture. The Sports Club offers activities for boys and girls of all ages throughout the summer. • Golf Camps • Tennis Camps • Swing, Serve and Splash Camps • Creative Camp • Swim Lessons • Kids For All Seasons Register for all camps online at www.TheSportsClubFourSeasons.com!

Baked Fennel Fennel bulbs 2 each Butter 1 Tbsp Heavy Cream ¾ cup Creme Fraîche ¾ cup Grated Parmesan cheese ¼ cup Preheat the oven to 400° F. Cut the base off of the fennel bulbs, and cut a cone shape into the base to remove the core. Quarter the fennel and slice each quarter thinly (into 1/4 inch slices). Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the fennel, and sauté for about 5 minutes. Stir in the heavy cream and crème fraîche until well blended. Transfer to a shallow baking dish. Sprinkle parmesan cheese over the top. Bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the top is golden brown and the fennel is tender enough to pierce with a fork. This dish is great to serve with a basic salad with light vinaigrette and a crisp white wine. Bon Appetit! Chef Frederic
WINE AND FOOD WHERE IN THE WORLD IS JAMES?

uring the past few months, I have been given the opportunity to travel to many locations both near and far. Below are a few of my favorite wine selections from my travels, and all are available at Café on the Green.
Chile Odfjell Orzada Maule Valley Carignan 2004 – A wine made from a little-recognized grape, but one that produces some of the most enlightening wines in Chile. Old vines Carignan, as exemplified by Odfjell, has dark fruit flavors, chocolate notes from oak, and Bordeauxlike notes of cigar, tobacco, and black olives. $57/bottle Argentina Doña Paula Selección de Bodega Mendoza Malbec 2006 – This is a top-of-the-line wine and a perfect example Malbec from Mendoza. The wine has concentrated, ripe blackberry, raspberry, and blueberry flavors with rich, warm oak notes, and floral and meaty highlights. $77/bottle Greece Domaine Sigalas Santorini 2006 – A wine much like ripe styles of Sauvignon Blanc, but with more body and texture. The wine has lemon, green apple, and mineral notes. A perfect wine for fish and appetizers, but with enough weight to add versatility.

Welcome to Four Seasons Dallas!
PEOPLE PROFILE
Brooklyn native who arrived in Texas at age 14 and never looked back, Chris DeChillo joined Four Seasons Resort and Club in February 2010 as the Assistant Director of Food & Beverage for The Sports Club. He came to us from Quattro, the restaurant at Four Seasons Hotel Houston, where he managed the operation. He began his management experience at Quattro, as an Assistant Manager. Over time he assumed the responsibilities of Hotel Sommelier and was invited to be a member of the CORE Wine Committee in March 2007. Chris was promoted to Quattro Restaurant Manager in May 2006, overseeing both the Restaurant & Lobby Lounge. In May 2007, DeChillo became the Hotel’s banquet manager – a necessary rung on the food-andbeverage ladder. Yet, after a year and a half, he jumped on an offer to return to the restaurant as a full-fledged manager. During his time in Houston, Chris gained a multitude of experience by assisting several Four Seasons properties, including: San Francisco, Dallas and the Beverly Wilshire. Chris received a B.S. in Recreation, Park & Tourism Sciences at Texas A&M University, focusing on Tourism Resource Management in December 2002. This included a fourmonth internship at Amelia Island Plantation in Florida. In his free time, Chris enjoys road and mountain biking, scuba diving and traveling with his wife, Jennifer. Chris met Jennifer while they both were attending Texas A&M and they celebrated their 7th wedding anniversary in May! The DeChillo’s have three “kids”: Scout - the family rabbit, as well as Grace and Harlan - brother & sister cats. Quote to live by…
“The way you learn to provide good service is by actually doing it.”

rooke Nelson, daughter of Sports Club Members Byron and Gloria Nelson, married Michael Bailey on August 7, 2009, in a beautiful ceremony at Woodhaven Presbyterian Church followed by a reception at Four Seasons Resort and Club. The couple’s classic pink and green color scheme looked stunning at the reception in the Pavilion. Giant paper lanterns were hung from the ceiling adding a whimsical element to the room. The fun-loving couple surprised their guests throughout the reception - including inviting the Chick Fil-A cow to hand out “chick’n biscuits” as a late night snack! Guests celebrated the couple’s departure by shaking maracas and tambourines as Brooke and Michael dashed off to their awaiting golf cart.
