n the last few weeks I have heard several versions of the same story: “We joined the club for the kids, but now they are in high school and I have started playing racquetball. It’s been so fun meeting new people!” “This fall we Henderson became empty nest- Darcy president ers and my wife and I started playing tennis together. I even joined the tennis committee!”

“I can’t wait until my youngest child starts kindergarten next fall … I can finally start working out during the day!”

With a membership lottery coming up in October, I have become aware of how many people join the club “for the kids.”

And with good reason; MAC is a great place for families, with an abundance of activities, classes and teams for all ages in one convenient location year-round. But one of the very best things about MAC is that there is so much more to the club than you might know when you first join. Even lifetime members discover new things about the club as their lifestyles and priorities change. If you are a single 30-something, you probably focus on the social events and adult athletics. I’ll bet you don’t even know where the Child Care is! But someday you might have a family and – believe it or not – your focus will shift to Little Fish swim lessons and Family Fridays.

Parents taking Tiny Tots classes with their children today might someday accompany their teens to rock climbing competitions or gymnastics meets. Those teens will eventually leave the nest, giving parents the time to rediscover tennis, racquetball, masters swim workouts or the MAC book club. And then it will come full circle. Take Trustee Bob Nunn, for example: with his first grandchild expected this summer, Bob has become very interested in what the club has to offer for babies and their mamas, papas and grandparents!

You don’t have to wait until your children leave the nest or your fitness goals change to try out new things. Summer is a great time to “discover” MAC. Work, family and personal schedules are more relaxed in summertime, and the club’s activities, classes and events also take on a different pace. This summer I challenge everyone to discover something new at the club. Here are some suggestions: • Unwind on the Sun Deck: Starting Friday, June 20, the Sun Deck Pool and Sun Deck will be more inviting than ever. Relax on

the lovely new deck chairs, challenge your kids to a game of ping pong under the sun, and stay for dinner from the “Splash” poolside grill.

• Get up close and personal with the Early Birds: The annual Rose Festival Float Preview is from 5:45-7 a.m. Friday, June 6 is a unique early-morning chance to see the Rose Festival floats in the final stages of preparation before the parade. Bring the kids before school!

• Change up your routine: Fitness classes are generally less crowded in summer, making this a great time to try out different formats and times. Check out Tuesday night Adult Parkour in the Gymnastics Arena.

• Play outside: Playing tennis on one of the club’s rooftop courts promises a birdseye view of the stadium and a light summer breeze.

• Party like it’s 1959 (or 1969): Channel your inner Don Draper and meet new friends at the Mad Men party on June 20.

• Learn a new skill: Pickling class, anyone?

Summer camp fun Summer camps make me want to be a kid again. Every spring when our family starts considering summer camp options, I get jealous. I wish I could go to camp, too!

This summer, MAC has further improved the camp offerings and services. Parents will soon be able to pre-order lunches and snacks for their little campers, with a variety of healthy and kid-friendly choices. How great is that?! A variety of camp schedules and formats are available, with full-day, partday, week-long and daily options, giving families the flexibility to find a camp that fits their schedule. Continue your preschooler’s learning at a two-hour morning or mid-day camp that explores topics such as books, recycling, and back-to-school. Older kids can hone their athletic skills or learn new ones at football, tennis or golf camps (and more!). The more artistically or scientifically inclined might be tempted by Princess and the Pea Theatre Camp, Glee Kidz PDX or Eureka Science Camp. While the most popular camps are already full, there is still space in many others.

Key Lottery dates If you attended our first Lottery Open House in May, you know that people are excited about the opportunity to join MAC. There are two important lottery dates on the horizon. The club holds another Open House from 6-8 p.m. Tuesday, June 10, and the early bird deadline to receive an extra chance in the Lottery drawing is 6 p.m.

have been the general manager of MAC for seven-anda-half years now. Some of our younger members are beginning to grow up! Tiny Tots are no longer learning how to crawl, they are mobile and enjoying growing up in MAC. Norm Rich Younger children are General Manager now teenagers and teenagers have aged up to become college juniors and seniors. A family I have watched grow up at MAC had their oldest daughter run to me and proudly announce her acceptance to Central Catholic in the fall. MAC President Darcy Henderson and I first met when she was pregnant with her daughter Laney. I have seen members’ transition from running to children’s athletic events to becoming empty nesters. I have also watched college-aged men and women graduate and return home to be near family and friends, and make MAC an important part of their lives. Oh, how quickly life changes.

Our club has also grown up and matured along the way while maintaining traditions that are still treasured after nearly 124 years of history. Once every few years, MAC holds a membership lottery that has become a part of our tradition and brand. It is our opportunity to open up our doors to potential new members. While our turnover of membership is extremely low by club industry standards, it does exist for many reasons: member children grow up and move out of their household or out of the area; others don’t use the club enough; some families are transferred to other parts of the country; and others become sick, retire or unfortunately pass away. Our memberships are highly sought after and have become a Portland tradition for which we are grateful! Bringing new members in and adding them to our community is one of the most rewarding parts of my job. Seeing the pure joy in families or individuals joining our club is rewarding work.

We continue to step up our game in an effort to enhance our member experience.

We invest, restore and improve your facilities, improve on our services and work hard to make experiences more memorable and rewarding. This summer we place emphasis on improving our Sun Deck experience by adding new lounge chairs and cocktail tables, and renaming the space Splash. Grilled burgers, hot dogs, tacos and an assortment of chilled salads will be available. Kid-friendly s’mores, cotton candy, ice cream bars and

snow cones will be available for those suffering from sweet-tooth syndrome. We are also appointing a one-call party coordinator for birthdays, graduations or any other parties.

Party packages can include climbing, swim, dance, basketball, gymnastics and food. We can assist with party favors and cake. We will not be the least expensive, but we will strive to offer value for money and convenience at your club.

New pastry chef In July, we welcome Michael Barckley as our new pastry chef. Michael is a creative patisserie and will define sweets in a whole new way. He was classically trained at Four Seasons, working at several of their hotels; worked at the famed Rittenhouse in Philadelphia; previously teamed with Chef Boulot at the Heathman; and most recently worked at the trendy R2L in Philadelphia.

Michael is looking forward to joining Chef Boulot’s team and sharing his culinary skills with our membership. In the Men’s Bar, we successfully begin every meal with great bread and will close that same meal with an opportunity for great dessert.

Saying goodbye after 35 years This month, we bid farewell to Khalid Mir, our beloved squash coach, who has served the club for 35 years and has produced hundreds of champions in this elite sport. We want to wish Khalid great happiness as he retires and thank him for his service.

We will be welcoming Ashley Read as our new Head Squash Professional. Ashley joins us from the Calgary Winter Club where he was Squash Pro. Ashley was previously with the German Cricket Club in Philadelphia, the Winchester Tennis and Squash Club in Winchester, England, and the Kriens Squash Club in Lucern, Switzerland.

Summer season for juniors As we begin the summer season, I would like to personally request that parents review club rules with junior members. Every junior member has to take a test at age 11. Most juniors know and respect our rules, though some have forgotten rules and get into trouble. The best way to ensure junior members fully enjoy their membership is by following rules that are meant for the benefits of all members. We offer a practice test of club rules as a refresher for junior members. These are available at the Concierge Desk.

May your summer be one filled with fun, relaxation and sunshine, and may you make meaningful memories with family and friends. WM June 2014

Doing what I love, thanks to OHSU.

I injured my back when I was 27. Off and on, I endured extraordinary pain. Then I discovered the OHSU Spine Center. The difference was in their team approach: They made me feel welcome, listened, provided options and empowered me with the tools to take control of the pain myself. OHSU gave me the chance to take back my life, without surgery or medication. And now, look what I’m able to do: What I love. That’s what life’s all about.

hat were you doing in 1979?

I was in high school in Dayton, Ohio. Jimmy Carter was president. The first space shuttle, Columbia, was delivered to the Kennedy Space Center. The Seattle Supersonics won the Ed Stoner NBA Championship.

Athletic Director McDonald’s introduced the Happy Meal, and Khalid Mir was introduced as the Head Squash Pro at Multnomah Athletic Club. Since then, quite a bit has changed in the world, but Khalid has remained and excelled at MAC. During his 35 years as MAC’s Head Squash Pro, Khalid has produced 40 national champions, and inspired multiple generations of members to love the game for which he has been so passionate, since his early years in Lahore, Pakistan.

We congratulate and thank Khalid on his 35 years of service as he steps down at the end of this month, and look forward to welcoming Ashley Read, most recently from the Calgary Winter Club, as he looks to build upon the traditions of excellence in squash at MAC. To learn more about Khalid and his impact at MAC, see the article on page 44.

June also brings an end to another school year and the beginning of summer camps.

This year we are excited to showcase a few new camps, including the sold-out Damian Lillard Basketball Camp, the Disc Golf Camp in July, and the Mascot Camp, featuring NBA mascots Blaze and Clutch, in August. Whether you are looking for basketball, climbing, football, golf, lacrosse, soccer, tennis or a week of adventure around Northwest Oregon, MAC’s summer camps offer a plethora of opportunities for MAC children and their guests. To learn more about the camps offered this summer, visit themac.com/groups/pages/junior-sportscamps to view a pdf of the summer camp catalog.

Visit the AD Blog at theMAC.com for ongoing updates throughout the summer regarding the closure and renovation of our 50-meter Pool, and as always, please let me know your thoughts via e-mail (estoner@themac.com) or Twitter (@ MAC_AthleticDir).

I look forward to seeing you around the club this summer enjoying our many camp offerings, or simply hanging by the Sun Deck Pool, enjoying our enhanced Splash service.

FACES IN THE CLUB The MAC Climbing Team won its third straight Sport Climbing Series Regional Championship last month while competing in Bend.

The team is slowly establishing itself as one of the best in the country. The newest competitive team at MAC, this group continues to show excellence on and off the wall. MAC placed eight athletes on the podium and three of those were crowned regional champion for their age group. Climbers must place seventh or higher to qualify for Divisional Championships. Nineteen MAC climbers qualified and will compete in San Francisco Saturday, June 14 and Sunday, June 15. Climbers from all over the western half of the United States will compete for a shot to advance to Atlanta for the SCS National Sport and Speed Championships.

To submit information for Faces in the Club, contact Communications Manager Tony Roberts at 503-517-7220 or troberts@themac.com.

Carl Miler recently joined MAC as a climbing member coach.

While enjoying the last 25 years as a journeyman pattern maker for the foundry industry, his passion has been technical rock climbing. Carl coached the Stoneworks youth climbing team for 10 years, during which many on his team earned individual championship titles. Carl’s outdoor climbing experience is just as extensive. He has climbed all over North America and Europe.

Discovering climbing at the age of 33 transformed his life. He hopes to inspire that same passion for climbing among MAC members. He helps the climbing program in many ways, particularly in mentoring adults new to the sport.

After a lengthy and thorough international search, Ashley Read has been named MAC squash’s next manager.

A native of the United Kingdom, he has more than 15 years of experience as a squash pro.

Read was most recently the head pro at the Calgary Winter Club in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, and has also served at private clubs in Philadelphia and Winchester, England.

Read is an England Level 4 Elite Coach, and has a proven record of growing programs while working with players of every age and ability. Mohsen Mir will continue to serve as the assistant pro and work with Read to continue building upon MAC’s tradition of excellence in the squash program.

Athletic member Renee Zhang had several standout performances during the 2014 Charlotte Davis Region A Championships in Tacoma, Wash. in May. Renee won the 13-15 age group figures competition, and was also honorary winner of the 16-19 age group figures competition, beating older competitors in the process. She also won the 13-15 solo competition, took second in the 13-15 duet, and was part of the 18-19 team that won the team competition, which is categorized by the oldest member on the team. Renee also made it through the first two rounds of qualifying for the 13-15 national team.

Read more about Renee’s performances on page 62.

Member coach Jarrad Krueger won the top singles division during the Pacific Northwest regional handball championships at MAC in March. Krueger defeated MAC athletic member Josh Bateman in the A singles final, and athletic member Jordan Taylor in the semifinals. When not competing, Krueger leads the MAC junior handball program, seeking the next generation of national champions to add to the MAC legacy. Krueger teaches the principles of hard work, strategy and fundamentals to young players that spill over into other athletic and academic endeavors. In addition to handball, Krueger and his family are involved in yoga, cycling and swimming at MAC. June 2014

Senior member Dougal Williams cruised to victory in the 2014 MAC Mile’s competitive division, running 5:07 on a scorching May afternoon when temperatures hit 91 degrees. Ryan Moshofsky was second, and Aidan Anastas was third. The top woman finisher was Eryn Forbes, who ran 6:02. There were three divisions of the mile.

Member Ben Chaffin won the All-Comers mile, and fitness employee Will Cath won the Open Mile. Junior member AJ Wight won the 400meter Kids Dash, clocking a 1:36. More than 50 runners competed in this popular event, which can also be used as a mile time during the MAC Decathlon. For a full list of results and photos, see the July Winged M.

In Memoriam John Gerald Duyn Nov. 12, 1952 - April 30, 2014 Senior member John Duyn departed this life into the arms of our Lord April 30, 2014.

John was born to Carl and Donna Duyn of Carlton. John graduated from Jesuit High School in 1970 and received his B.S. in Commerce from Santa Clara University in 1974.

John, the highly respected CEO of Carlton Farms, grew the business over the last 40 years. Carlton Farms’ high-end pork products are served in many of the finest restaurants and grocery stores in the Pacific Northwest. His never-ending dedication and commitment to excellence never overshadowed his devotion to his “family” of employees. His greatest satisfaction was being a “father” and friend to all. His generosity of time and talent was matched only by his kindness to give of his treasures to those less fortunate. His cherished Jesuit High School and the Trappist Abbey were among his favorite beneficiaries.

John had the gift of charisma and all those who were in his presence were captivated with his charm and easy-going spirit.

John’s never-ending selfless acts of kindness personified his inner beauty. He found great solace in the beauty of God’s earth and enjoyed everything outdoors: golfing, hunting, fishing, skiing, walking, hiking and rafting.

John was preceded in death by his mother, Donna Duyn (2010); and beloved first wife, Susan Moore Duyn (1981). He is survived by his loving wife and devoted partner of 31 years, Rita O’Hara Duyn.

In lieu of flowers, and in celebration of John’s life and in tribute to his philanthropic legacy in his beloved community, memorial donations may be made to Jesuit High School or the Trappist Abbey in care of Macy & Son Funeral Home. In remembrance of a man who made it his daily practice of warmly touching everyone’s life, we invite you to do a random act of kindness in his memory.

Lauren “Louise” Fergison Jan. 13, 1929 - March 10, 2014 Senior member Lauren “Louise” Fergison passed away peacefully March 10, at her home in Southwest Portland, with family by her side. She was 85.

Born Lauren Louise Boardway on Jan. 13, 1929, in Blaine, Wash., she graduated from Grant High School in 1947, then worked as a drafter for the telephone company.

She met her future husband, John Fergison, while skiing on Mt. Hood. They

were married Aug. 18, 1951, at St. Michael and All Angels Episcopal Church in Portland, and enjoyed 62 years of marriage.

Education was highly important to Louise, and she continued her own while being a stay-at-home mom, receiving her Bachelor of Arts in both English and Psychology from Portland State University. She was a caring mother who consistently supported her children’s many eclectic interests. When they left for college, she put her attention to detail to work as a professional designer of fine kitchens. She was in every sense a lady – always impeccably and elegantly dressed, with a beautiful smile and appearing many years younger than her age. Though private and reserved, with a strong sense of decorum, Louise was liked by everyone who met her, and was extremely thoughtful, with a quirky sense of humor.

Family was the most important thing to her. Louise loved birds and animals, especially cats, and was a longtime member of the Portland Audubon Society, MAC and Mount Hood Ski Club Lodge. Skiing and mountain climbing were passions shared with her husband throughout her life, and many of her oldest and closest friends were skiers.

She traveled extensively with her family in Europe, Kenya and Egypt.

Louise was preceded in death by her father, George “Glen” Boardway; mother, Winifred Boardway; brother, George Boardway; and beloved cats, Puffy, Elsa and Yum-Yum. Her survivors include her husband, John; daughter, Drue Fergison (Ralph Zerbe) of Houston, Minn.; son, Laurence “Larry” Fergison (Kimberly Fergison) of San Francisco; grandchildren, Penelope and Alec Fergison (children of Larry and Kim); and brother-in-law, Robert Fergison of Enterprise.

Memorials may be made to The Chamber Music Society of Oregon, Portland Audubon Society or St. Joseph’s Indian School.

Robert “Bob” Jarvis Sept. 24, 1928 - April 29, 2014 Senior preferred member Robert “Bob” Jarvis died peacefully in his home, surrounded by love, on April. 29. His quick wit and the sparkle in his eye will be missed by many.

He was 85.

Bob was outraged by injustice and held a strong belief that all beings had a purpose and deserved to be seen, heard and given a chance – no matter what their circumstance.

He was always the guy that stopped the car to give an unfortunate person on the side of the road a five or a 20.

In his busy life he accomplished many things and walked many paths. As a young man he was a fierce protector of his younger sister, Sally. He was always trying to prove to his brothers Dick and Jack that he was faster and stronger. At Jefferson High School he used those talents in his football career.

His eagerness to protect led him to enlist in the Army Air Corps. Robert served as a paratrooper during the World War II occupation of Japan. Back home in Portland, he attended Vanport College and Oregon State University. He then joined the Portland Police Department, where he helped write the official Manual of Procedures, Rules and Regulations.

From a vacant lot on Union Avenue he started the next phase of his career, selling used cars and growing this to Jarvis Jeep on Grand Avenue, at one time the largest jeep distributorship in the U.S. “Beep, Beep, Jarvis Jeep!” Robert was especially proud of his boxing career, which began at the Multnomah Athletic Club. At the 1946 National AAU Boxing Tournament, Rocky Marciano broke his wrist on Robert’s head. Rocky became a lifelong friend to Robert, and often visited the family home in Lake Oswego, sparring with the young Jarvis offspring in the backyard boxing ring. Some of his other exploits included a detective agency, helicopter crabbing off of the Oregon Coast and in later years he became a real estate investor. Robert is survived by his wife, Charlene; sister, Sally; brother Dick of Spokane; children, Louis, Jim, Burt and Delia are all nearby in the Portland area. His eight beloved grandchildren, Louis Jr., Shaun, Brandon, Evan, Caitlin, Bree, Tanya and Melissa, were his pride and joy. Robert and Charlene have been raising granddaughter Cassidy Elliott, who brought light and happiness to their home for the past eight years. His ten greatgrandchildren meant the world to him, and he couldn’t wait to see their shining faces running through the door.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Albertina Kerr Children’s Center.

Thomas Andrew Kennedy Nov. 13, 1922 - April 19, 2014 Senior family preferred member Tom Kennedy died in Portland following a recent stroke. He was 91.

He was born to Lancelot and Mona (Cain) Kennedy on the homestead of his grandfather, Andrew M. Kennedy, in Beaverton. Two younger brothers, Leonard and Douglas, preceded him in death.

ADMINISTRATIVE In Memoriam Continued from page 19 His family moved to La Grande, where he graduated from high school and attended Eastern Oregon College of Education. World War II interrupted Tom’s studies. He went to Midshipmen School in New York City and served on USS LST-1016 in the AsiaticPacific Theater. He continued his service in the Naval Reserves, retiring as lieutenant commander in 1969.

Tom completed his bachelor’s degree at the University of Oregon, where he was a member of Sigma Nu Fraternity. He continued his studies at Lewis & Clark’s Northwestern College of Law while working for Standard Oil. He was admitted to the bar in 1957 and began his legal career in private practice, then at the Portland City Attorney’s office.

In 1963, Tom joined the Office of the Regional Solicitor for the U.S. Department of the Interior, retiring in 1987. In 1961, Tom married his surviving wife, Dorothy (Saunders) Kennedy, with whom he celebrated 53 years of marriage. They raised two children, David and Susan; and have three grandchildren. They also enjoyed traveling with one another, visiting Europe, Africa and South America. Tom was a parishioner, usher and served on the vestry at St. Barnabas Episcopal Church. He was a MAC member for more than 50 years and enjoyed mountaineering and hiking as a member of the Mazamas. Being fit most of his life, Tom also skied and cycled well into his 80s.

In lieu of flowers, the family would appreciate contributions to a charity of the donor’s choice in Thomas Kennedy’s name.

Kathryn Ann Krichevsky March 22, 1958 - April 3, 2014 Senior member Kathryn Ann Krichevsky passed away April 3. She was 56.

Kathy was the second of 10 children born to Gay and Madelon (Cis) Francis. She is survived by her husband, Randy, and four children, Brad, Brian, Jake and Jenna. In addition, she leaves behind many nieces and nephews and many close relatives.

Kathy was talented in so many ways. Her true gifts were that of being a devoted wife of 33 years and mother to her four kids. Kathy was an ideal partner in life. She became a second mom to so many of her kids’ friends, and helped guide her four children through Beaverton High School and various Oregon universities.

As of late, Kathy expanded her passion for gardening, painting, and truly living each day

to its fullest. Words that describe this wonderful woman are kind, loving, caring, fun, and a mentor to many. She will be missed for years to come.

Gregory Michael Lowes Jan. 29, 1953 – May 3, 2014 Senior family member Gregory Michael Lowes died May 3. He was 61.

Greg was born in Portland on Jan. 29, 1953 to Baylor and Patricia Erickson Lowes.

He was a loving husband to Amy, and a cherished father of Michael and Kate. His sharp mind and quick wit proved that there would never be a dull moment in the Lowes household. His three younger siblings, Michele, Grant and Brian, benefitted from his wisdom and support as an unwavering role model and friend. Greg’s thirst for exploration and travel drove his relentless pursuit of collecting experiences and memories. He set the standard for maximizing every moment of every day, a lesson that lives on through his many friends and family.

Greg studied at Alameda Elementary School, Grant High School and Oregon State University. He continued learning every day of his life. He didn’t miss a chance to support his Generals or Beavers on the football field, nor did he shy away from competition in his own sporting endeavors. He was a longtime MAC member, and a member of Portland Golf Club, Alpha Tau Omega Fraternity and worked at Umpqua Bank.

Greg’s unique ability to retain information secured his position as the family encyclopedia. In the rare case that he wasn’t a master of the topic, he was convincing enough to make you believe he was.

Greg and his family are fortunate to be surrounded with wonderful friends. He lived to enjoy such great company through a visit to the beach, a game of cards or a bottle of wine. If you were lucky, you may even have witnessed a Jimmy Buffet song or two. He wasn’t one to miss a party. One of Greg’s greatest strengths was his ability to keep everyone guessing.

He passed away at Hopewell House Hospice after a courageous battle with Pancreatic Cancer. The family suggests remembrances may be made to the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network: https://netcommunity.pancan.org/sslpage.aspx?pid=218

Richard H. Muller Aug. 3, 1933 - April 20, 2014 Senior family preferred member Richard H. Muller died April 20. He was 80.

Richard was raised in San Rafael, Calif., and graduated from Reed College, class of 1956. He earned his J.D. from the University of Washington, and was a colonoel in the United States Marine Corps. Richard was a 6th degree judo black belt.

He is survived by his wife, Mertie, his life partner of 61 years; four children and eight grandchildren.

Aldo Donald Parr Jr. April 1, 1932 - March 26, 2014 Senior family preferred member Aldo Donald Parr died March 26 from complications from Parkinson’s disease. He was 81.

Don was born April 1, 1932, in Ashland, the truly loved only child of Aldo and Margaret Parr. He grew up in Roseburg and graduated from Roseburg High School, where he played football and the clarinet and earned his reputation for being an all-around wonderful guy, a reputation he carried with him for the rest of his life.

In 1954, Don graduated from the University of Oregon School of Arts and Sciences with a Bachelor of Science in Speech. He was a member of Sigma Alpha Epsilon Fraternity. Always interested in radio and broadcasting, he then moved to Portland with his new wife, Dorothy Carlson Parr, and went to work for KPOJ radio station. Several years later, with Dottie and two little kids, Don drove to San Francisco to study with Dean Witter and became a stock broker, a profession at which he was highly successful until his retirement in 2003.

As a follower of Jesus Christ, Don loved the Lord and early on learned the truth of his favorite scripture, Matthew 6.31-33: “So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For people run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.”

An avid outdoorsman, Don was always the first out the door for runs, hikes, camping trips and mountain climbing, backpacking, fly fishing, skiing, sailing and just appreciating life and nature. Actually, in front of him out the door (preferably in the very early morning) were his kids, who he herded

enthusiastically into hundreds of adventures.

He instilled in them a lifelong love of the out-of-doors and a deep sense of responsibility for the preservation of nature and the world. Don continued his very active lifestyle until Parkinson’s disease prevented him from doing so about four years ago.

His beloved wife, Dottie, died in 1992.

In 1995, Don married Kay Ellen Partner and his friends all said that they were not surprised that he had struck gold twice.

Don had clients in London, England, and Edinburgh, Scotland, who he happily called on at least once a year and then, with Dottie and later, Kay, traveled the world. He was the world’s best traveling companion, tireless and organized. Included among his many interests were the Boy Scouts of America, Young Life, the Mazamas and MAC, where he served on the board of trustees in the ‘80s.

Don Parr was just...well, he was just wonderful. He was a faithful man of God, an extremely generous philanthropist, a consummate gentleman and the person you would most like to be seated next to at a dinner party. Everyone thought he was a brilliant conversationalist, which he was, but it was mostly because he said very little. He listened and was sincerely interested in what others had to say. He is incredibly missed.

William Edward Stromme Sept. 15, 1920 - April 14, 2014 Senior family preferred member William Stromme passed away peacefully with his family at his side while at OHSU on April 14. He had recently fallen, breaking a hip, and suffered complications from previous prostate cancer. He was not able to make a recovery despite an extraordinary will and good humor. He was 93.

Bill was born an only child in Spokane, Wa, in 1920, raised primarily by his loving mother Gertrude Barker. He attended North Central High, graduated in 1941 from the University of Washington with a BA in business, and was a proud member of Theta Chi. He enlisted in the US Navy, serving on the destroyer escort USS Weaver. He

served four years of active duty, and another 20 years in the Naval Intelligence Reserves, retiring as a lieutenant commander.

His career began at Sunset Electric, which was later acquired by Frigidaire Sales Corp, a Division of General Motors. He spent his entire career with Frigidaire, becoming the Northwest Regional Manager. The family relocated from Seattle to Spokane, Tacoma, Portland, Alamo, Calif., and finally back to his beloved Portland. He retired in 1986.

While at Sunset Electric in 1948, he met the love of his life, Reba Armstrong, a recent graduate of UW’s home economics program.

They married in 1949, and remained so for 64 years until his death. Together they had three children.

Bill and his family were longtime members of MAC and Portland Golf Club, and he was active in Rotary International. The family joined MAC in 1962 and all have been members since.

During his lifetime, Bill enjoyed spending time with his family and relatives at the family beach house on Hood Canal, travel, tennis, golf, and especially a game of bridge or other cards. Politics he wore on his sleeve, an avid Republican throughout his days. He is fondly remembered as a man of considerable humor, humble beginnings, strong

convictions, unquestioned integrity, and a strong work ethic, which his children were fortunate to receive from their parents.

Bill is survived by his wife Reba; children Marcia Walsh (Bob), Mark, and Karen; as well as grandchildren, Afton (Brad Harrison) and Joe Walsh, Kelsey Crouch, and Winston Stromme. Area relatives also include stepbrother Jim Stromme, wife Rita, and their five children.

Because MAC prides itself on being a family-friendly environment, it is important that members act as positive role models for children in the club. Children learn behavior by watching and listening to the adults around them.

Using profanity may be permissible on cable television, but offensive language has no place anywhere on club property. Spouting expletives, telling offensive jokes or using words that insult a person or group are simply unacceptable. Such comments offend others, set a bad example for youngsters and violate Club Rules for member conduct. Outbursts of profanity in athletic areas also breach the Athletic Code of Conduct.

Children are also learning to respect other members and employees, as well as club property. They take their cues from parents and other adults. We cannot expect children to be respectful if the adults around them show disregard for others or for club rules. For example, adults can set a positive example by how they treat fellow members and club staff, and by adhering to club policies for dress code, card scanning and cell phone use.

Parents are responsible for the behavior of their children and are expected to correct misbehavior before it becomes disruptive to others. Teaching children how to behave while dining in a club restaurant is a lesson that will serve them well throughout their lives. It also shows respect for other diners and servers. The House Committee may sanction parents for violations committed by their children.

ADMINISTRATIVE Members may politely remind fellow members of Club Rules, but should enlist the assistance of a manager on duty or other available club employee if they are subjected to offensive language or behavior.

Trying to live up to his father’s legacy and save his family business, Charlie finds inspiration in the form of Lola, a fabulous entertainer in need of some sturdy stilettos. As they work to turn the factory around, this unlikely pair finds that they have more in common than they ever dreamed possible, and together they discover that when a person changes her mind about someone, she can change your whole world.

Dirty Dancing Jan. 13-18, 2015 Dirty Dancing is an unprecedented live experience, exploding with heart-pounding

music, passionate romance and sensational dancing. Seen by millions across the globe, this worldwide smash hit tells the classic story of Baby and Johnny, two fiercely independent young spirits from different worlds who come together in what will be the most challenging and triumphant summer of their lives.

Guys and Dolls March 10-15, 2015 Set in Damon Runyon’s mythical New York City, this oddball romantic comedy – considered by many to be the perfect musical comedy – soars with the spirit of Broadway as it introduces us to a cast of vivid characters who have become legends in the canon: Sarah Brown, the upright but uptight “mission doll,” out to reform the evildoers of Times Square; Sky Masterson, the slick, high-rolling gambler who woos her on a bet and ends up falling in love; Adelaide, the chronically ill nightclub performer whose condition is brought on by the fact she’s been engaged to the same man for 14 years; and Nathan Detroit, her devoted fiancé, desperate as always to find a spot for his infamous floating craps game.

I Love Lucy Live on Stage April 7-12, 2015 I Love Lucy Live on Stage is the brand new, hit stage show adapted from one of the most beloved programs in television history. It’s 1952, and the crowd at the Keller are members of the Desilu Playhouse studio audience, awaiting the filming of two hilarious and oh-so familiar I love Lucy episodes. A charming host entertains and enlightens the audience to the behind-the-scenes filming process of this brand new thing called television, the Crystaltone Singers perform advertising jingles in perfect 50s style harmony, and the sidesplitting antics of America’s favorite foursome – Lucy, Ricky, Fred and Ethel – are presented live on stage and in color for the very first time. It’s a one-of-a-kind theatrical experience TV Guide’s William Keck calls “the most entertaining stage production I’ve seen in years – including Broadway!” The truth is in the title – whether young or old, everybody really does love Lucy!

The Phantom of the Opera May 13-24, 2015 Following an acclaimed sold-out tour of the United Kingdom, Cameron Mackintosh’s spectacular new production of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s phenomenal musical success, The Phantom of the Opera, comes to Portland as part of a brand new North American Tour. Critics are raving that this breathtaking production is “bigger

and better than ever before.” This Phantom features a brilliant new scenic design by Paul Brown, Tony Award-winning original costume design by Maria Björnson, lighting design by Tony Award-winner Paule Constable, new choreography by Scott Ambler, and a new staging by director Laurence Connor. The production boasts many exciting special effects, including the show’s legendary chandelier. The beloved story and thrilling score – with songs like Music of the Night, All I Ask of You, and Masquerade – will be performed by a cast and orchestra of 52, making this Phantom one of the largest productions now on tour.

Wicked August 5-23, 2015 Broadway’s biggest blockbuster is flying back to Portland by “popular” demand.

Variety calls Wicked “a cultural phenomenon,” and it continues to break box office records and sell out in record time. Long before that girl from Kansas arrives in Munchkinland, two girls meet in the land of Oz. One – born with emerald green skin – is smart, fiery and misunderstood.

The other is beautiful, ambitious and very popular. How these two grow to become the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda the Good makes for “the most complete – and completely satisfying – musical in a long time,” according to USA Today.

Balladeers

Ensemble’s Year Marked

by Positive Change It was a year of change and growth for the 35-member Balladeers, MAC’s 74-year-old men’s singing ensemble.

New director Scott Tuomi introduced new music and worked closely with the men to improve harmony and diction.

“You could really tell that we’d taken a step forward at our spring performances,” said committee chair Jay Maxwell.

Besides introducing new music, Tuomi, who is director of choral music at Pacific University, said he hopes to find new performance opportunities for the ensemble.

This year, the Balladeers performed with Tuomi, a professional operatic tenor (his addition caused quite a stir), and the all-star high school young men’s group Tsunami, which he also conducts.

“Among the exciting things we added this year were the talent of Scott and the chance to sing with the young voices of Tsumani,” said Maxwell. “It’s one of our missions to show

Activities young people that singing is something you can do throughout your life.”

In learning new music and playing closer attention to musical detail, the Balladeers slightly curtailed their performance schedule this year, but hope to be back to full performance schedule strength next season.

For now, it’s the summer off, although there has been talk of a possible practice or two to keep this year’s lessons fresh.

As usual, emphasized Maxwell and Tuomi, the Balladeers are searching for new members.

“Singing with this group is a lot of fun. It’s a great way to enlarge your circle of friends while helping create a wonderful music experience for yourself and for others in the community,” Maxwell said.

For more information on the Balladeers, contact Mandy Beasley at 503-517-7272 or stop by any of their rehearsals on Thursdays at 7:15 p.m. in the third floor Activities Classroom.

–Martha Godfrey Dixon

Continued from page 29

Evening Readers Discuss Pulitzer Winner The Evening Literary Readers’ choice for June is Paul Harding’s Tinkers, winner of the Pulitzer Prize for fiction in 2010. This bestselling debut novel is as extraordinary as the elegant prose within it. The story is inspired by his family’s own history, and Harding put the novel away several times before submitting it for publication.

An old man lies dying his bed in the living room where he sees the walls around him collapsing, windows coming loose from sashes, until the clouds plummet down on top of him, followed by the stars. He is hallucinating, dying from cancer and kidney failure. He returns to the backwoods of Maine where he rediscovers a natural world. Harding bases the story on his own grandfather, who repaired clocks.

Tinkers is a novel sparse with dialogue. Large

ATHLETICS “Khalid has been a cornerstone and leader of squash not only in Portland but in the whole Pacific Northwest.”

— Mark Talbott

44 | The Wınged M |

June 2014

Athletics

Under Khalid’s watch, MAC added squash courts, established new annual tournaments and attracted some of the country’s top players. He has also instilled a lifelong love of squash in countless juniors, many of whom still play at MAC today.

Squash

King of the Courts MAC squash pro Khalid Mir steps down this month after 35 years at the club. Some of his star pupils reflect on his influence and reveal his best-kept coaching secret

K

halid Mir, MAC’s longtime and highly successful head squash pro, has a secret weapon to get kids addicted to the sport: A milkshake.

His routine starts by challenging a junior to a match. A series of competitions ensues, in which Khalid thrashes his young opponent four or five times before finally suffering a close but decisive defeat.

That’s followed by a walk to the squash office, where Khalid, exclaiming about his opponent’s formidable racquet skills, digs some coins out of a drawer and sends the victor, now bristling with self-confidence, off to buy a milkshake.

“It was a classic ploy,” says Julian Illingworth, who started playing under Khalid at age 10. “It helped us focus and made us feel like we were really good.” Illingworth became the top American men’s player ever, winning nine national titles, and he credits Khalid with instilling in him a work ethic and training regimen while keeping the experience fun and relaxed. “He put me on the right track and helped me get passionate about the game.”

When Khalid, 72, steps down as MAC’s head pro after 35 years this month, his legacy will include a program that produced 40 national champions. Under Khalid’s watch, MAC added squash courts, instituted annual tournaments and attracted top players. “He has been a cornerstone and leader of squash not only in Portland but in the whole Pacific Northwest,” says Mark Talbott, the World No. 1 hardball squash player for 13 years, who started playing in MAC tournaments after Khalid came on board. But just as important an achievement has been Khalid’s success in instilling a lifelong love of squash in countless juniors – players who still

show up at the MAC courts now, decades after they went off to college.

Emily Duden Pinkerton started playing squash at MAC under Khalid in 1979, when she was in elementary school. By high school she was hanging out at the squash courts every day because “it was the coolest place to be.” For Pinkerton, Khalid’s lessons went beyond the court, giving her self-esteem that affected how she performed at school and socially. “He always made me feel like I was exceptional, like I was doing a phenomenal job,” she says.

Pinkerton’s younger sister took up squash under Khalid too, and they still play together whenever they have the chance.

“Do you know how many milkshakes that man owes me?” jokes Will Davis, who piled into minivans and hotel rooms across the U.S., Canada and Europe going to tournaments with Khalid in the 1990s. Davis, who plays almost daily at MAC, and served on the MAC Squash committee, says Khalid is like a second father to him – someone who “always had the answers.” Tony Catalan also started as a young player when Khalid plucked him from racquetball. He too still plays at MAC. “He has a great sense of humor and he never yelled,” says Catalan.

Using encouragement to motivate junior players didn’t come naturally to Khalid. He says he was very tough on his first son, Ahsan, now 45, who ended up quitting squash when he was 16.

“That influenced how I coached. I learned that you can’t give them any gesture that puts them down,” he says. With his second son, Mohsen, now the assistant squash coach at the MAC, and his third Continued on page 46 June 2014

Athletics

King of the Courts Continued from page 45 son Asif, he mixed firmness with praise, urging them to never give up. Both sons dominated tournaments, with Mohsen winning the U.S. Squash Championship in 1996.

Background in racquet sports

Khalid and Farrukh moved to Portland to raise their sons, Ahsan, Mohsen and Asif.

Khalid grew up in Lahore, Pakistan, and honed his racquet skills playing tennis, a sport his father, Mir Abdul Rahim, an executive with Pakistan Railroad, was so passionate about that he built two tennis courts at their home: one on the first floor roof and one outside the 21-bedroom house. Though Khalid says his father was never a very good tennis player, he loved it so much he told his children he wanted to die playing tennis, which he did in 1968.

Khalid’s father had 15 children: seven from Khalid’s mother, who died when Khalid was five months old, and eight from a second wife. (Khalid adopted Mir as his surname after his father’s caste). Khalid and his siblings played tennis seven days a week, many becoming national champions, including his sister Shahnaz Rahim and his brother Haroon Rahim, who became the highest ranking Pakistani tennis player in history.

Khalid says he isn’t done coaching.

He wants to continue to promote squash in Portland by teaching it to kids beyond MAC.

MAC welcomed Khalid as a Squash Pro in 1979.

June 2014

Tennis was never Khalid’s game. When he discovered squash by watching the all-time-great Hashim Khan play in Lahore, he didn’t look back. “Squash was very quick, very hard hitting and I loved it right away,” he says. Khalid was studying at the time for his masters degree in physics, and he just gave up having a social life, instead going to the courts at 4 a.m. for two hours and returning at night to play matches. He was on the Pakistani national team for three years, serving as captain in 1967, the year they went to the World Championships in Australia, where Khalid lost to Australian legend Geoff Hunt, who went on to win the world title.

Later that year, Khalid’s brother, Mir Mohammad Nasim, who earned a tennis scholarship to Clemson University, convinced him to move to South Carolina, where he taught physics and travelled to tournaments in New York, attracting coverage in the New York Times for his play. At a tournament at the Harvard Club in 1971, Khalid learned the New York Racquet Club was looking for a pro, and he took the job, staying there eight years.

One day in 1979, a MAC member in New York on business took a lesson with Khalid and told him MAC was looking for a new pro. MAC Athletic Director Mel Fox flew Khalid to Portland.

Khalid immediately loved the city, recognizing it as a nicer place for him and his wife, Farrukh, to raise their children than Flushing Meadows in Queens.

Khalid says he isn’t done coaching. He wants to continue to promote squash in Portland by teaching it to kids beyond MAC. As for using milkshakes as bait, he says that will remain a tool – but probably less so than in the past, since the price has gone up considerably from 72 cents. “I’ll have to make them work even harder now,” he jokes.

Athletics Early Birds

families in need, and in June, they’re asking for members to lend a hand. Look through the cupboards for extra pots and pans, cooking utensils, can openers and bath towels – their most needed items – and donate them to Community Warehouse the week beginning Sunday, June 22, when the organization sets up a barrel near the Athletic Entrance. Invite your neighbors, friends and colleagues to donate as well.

See Festival Floats Before They Launch The Early Birds host their traditional preview of the spectacular Rose Festival floats from 5:45-7 a.m. Friday, June 6, the day before the parade. All MAC early risers are invited. The preview is at the SCi 3.2 warehouse at 2448 N.W. 28th Ave., just off Northwest Nicolai Street. The Early Birds are grateful to SCi 3.2, formerly Studio Concepts, for welcoming MAC members to preview the floats for more than 25 years.

Longtime Early Birds runner/walker, photographer and cookie baker extraordinaire, Roger Jensen, organized the first floats preview when he was chairman of the Early Birds Committee, and he brings his famous cookies each year. Directions to the warehouse are at the Front Desk for those Early Birds who want to run or walk there. At SCi, spectators get a close-up look at the creative and beautiful floats just before finishing touches are added. It is fascinating to see the variety of plant materials that are used. Free hot and cold beverages and other refreshments are served. No reservations necessary.

–Greg Marshall

Life is Short, Don’t Play Too Slowly Pace of play is a frequent topic on the golf course. The USGA has implemented a campaign called While We’re Young to encourage golfers to keep pace. Regardless of skill level or handicap, the good news is all golfers have the ability to play at a steady pace. Awareness is key on the golf course; noticing one’s surroundings, where the group ahead stands, and making a conscious effort to plan ahead for the next shot are all important. A golfer also can limit her practice swings, knowing the club or shot she will hit before reaching her ball, and walking quickly between shots.

In addition, when on the green, try reading a putt while others are putting, putt out whenever possible, leave clubs on the side of the green nearest the next tee, and write down scores on the following tee box. In short, be ready when it’s time to hit.

labeling, portion distortion, and other requested topics. Christensen is excited to share important nutritional facts and myths with the membership to help inform you on the latest nutrition science information and express the impact that food and nutrition has on your daily life.

Since this is the introductory article we will start by bringing nutrition science back to the basics and discussing macronutrients and micronutrients.

Macronutrients are the nutrients that provide the body with energy or calories. A calorie measures the unit of energy that each macronutrient provides the body. The energy or calories providing macronutrients are carbohyChristensen drates, fat, and proteins.

Micronutrients are vitamins and minerals. Micronutrients do not provide energy or calories for the body, but are essential for hormone and enzyme production.

These macro and micronutrients are needed, in balance, to live a healthy productive life.

Hydration also is an essential part of a healthy diet. Always keep in mind that each person’s nutritional requirements are variable by age, height, weight, sex, activity level, etc.

When it comes to weight loss, it is often stated that “a calorie is a calorie” and that it doesn’t matter where that calorie comes from, just as long as one is consuming fewer calories than are burned. Indeed, in theory this looks like it makes mathematical sense, but physiologically it does not. If the calories consumed only come from sugary sodas and French fries a person might lose a pound if they consume fewer calories than their body exerts, but this approach is not sustainable and will leave the body fatigued. This is because a diet of sugary sodas and French fries is very high in simple carbohydrates and saturated Continued on page 56 June 2014

oin MAC cyclists for Second Saturday rides this summer. The group rolls out around 9:15 a.m. and tackles the Banks/Vernonia Trail in June. The next month is the Eola Hills Wine Ride, MAC Cycling’s biggest ride of the year.

Second Saturday ride, June 14 – Banks/Vernonia Bring the family for two overlapping options, starting in Banks.

For those who want a challenging ride, head west along the Banks marsh, take State Route 6 to the Timber turnoff, then climb a few hills through the valleys to Vernonia. (Look for buffalo and elk.) For a much easier option for family riders, follow the BanksVernonia trail for a short up-and-back, or a longer traverse into Vernonia. There is an optional regroup in Vernonia and riders may decide to find a post-ride gathering place in Banks for lunch. Meet at 9 a.m. at the Banks trailhead in downtown Banks. Exit Highway 26 West on Northwest Banks Road, just west of the turnoff for Highway 6. The parking lot is 1.7 miles from Highway 26, on your right. Sign in at 8:45 a.m., route review is at 9 a.m. Be ready to ride promptly at 9:15 a.m.

Sunday, July 20 – Eola Hills Wine Ride The annual destination ride for cyclists starts at Eola Hills Winery. This is one of the largest outdoor activities and a great ride for all the but the youngest kids. The ride also provides an opportunity to meet other MAC members, cycle with friends, and introduce others to organized rides. Guests are welcome.

This year, the cycling committee is in the process of mapping out three different courses; a 20-mile social ride, a 35-mile scenic ride, and a 60-mile training ride. Most routes will wind through the scenic countryside of Polk County wine country, the town of Independence, and across the Willamette River on the historic Buena Vista ferry (bring $1 in your jersey pocket to cover the fee).

Riders are encouraged to ride at their own pace and return to Eola Hills Winery for their signature brunch that includes crepes, Eggs

Benedict, made-to-order omelets, waffles, oysters, pasta bar, meats, soups, salads and two glasses of wine or champagne. This year there will also be a post-ride ceremony with prizes for participants.

The cost for the ride is $15 and will be charged to your account.

Brunch is an additional $21.95, payable directly to Eola Hills Winery, so please be sure to bring your wallet. Eola Hills is offering MAC riders a 15 percent discount on wine purchases by the case. Riders should arrive by 8:30 a.m. to sign a waiver, pick up a route map and be ready to ride at 9 a.m. WM

New Member Coach Brings Wealth of Experience Group rides are for everyone! People often feel group rides are intimidating and only for serious cyclists. This is not the case. Group rides at MAC are welcoming to all levels.

Why should you join a group ride? Let us count the reasons. Group rides are an excellent way to increase your skills on the bike.

Riding with more experienced riders and coaches will help you learn better ways to hold a good line, better cornering techniques, pedaling efficiency, and pacing. The knowledge flows from experienced rides to new riders. You also will learn how to draft. By sharing the work of riding in the wind, the group can travel at a higher speed, covering more ground, and creating a very fun experience.

But perhaps the most important part of a group ride is the social aspect. Riding bikes is a very social activity, and it’s a great way to meet people and make new friends. We have a great group of riders in the MAC Cycling group. The group rides are off to a great start this season. You’ll make new friends and become a better cyclist by joining us. We hope to see you on a MAC ride soon.

Pilates and TRX: The All-Around Workout

Pilates and TRX, above, are innovative and effective ways to stay fit and avoid injury.

Pilates and TRX are uniquely transformational methods of body conditioning and are becoming the fastest growing fitness trends in the country. Why? Because they work. Pilates originally was developed for rehabilitation, and TRX was developed by a Navy Seal who was seeking alternate ways to stay fit.

Pilates is an innovative and sensible practice of mind-body exercise that evolved from Joseph Pilates. It uses a floor mat, reformer, cadillac or chair. Pilates can dramatically transform the way your body looks, feels and performs. It builds strength without excess bulk, promoting a sleek, toned body with

a strong abdomen. Pilates teaches overall body awareness, good posture and graceful movement, which help alleviate back pain.

It also improves flexibility, agility and range of motion, while challenging muscle groups with precision of movement that will help enhance muscular endurance.

TRX uses gravity and movement to generate neuromuscular response. The newly discovered popularity lies within its simplicity and versatility. It delivers a fast, effective totalbody workout. TRX helps build a rock-solid core, and it benefits people of all fitness levels, from pro athletes to seniors or anyone who is an endurance athlete who wants to focus on additional strength training. By using your own body weight, the TRX Suspension Trainer provides greater performance in various aspects. These exercises are designed to build explosiveness, while taking you through a unique combination of workouts that will challenge your stamina and coordination.

Crossing over to both of these methods ideally teaches the practitioner how to stabilize their body joints and create overall body awareness. This is a key factor in making these workouts so unique. In addition to improving breathing and increasing flexibility, it’s a great way to cross-train, while improving success in many sports. Both Pilates and TRX

focus on strengthening the core of the body, helping athletes become better at their sport of choice, while reducing the risk of injury.

Repetitive motions can be tough on the body.

In a normal workout, the same muscles are being used over and over in the same way, which leads to negative stress on the frame.

Tendons and ligaments become strained, and, over time, this creates imbalances in the body.

The Pilates and TRX principles are extremely useful in everyday training, as an exercise program that aims to create structural alignment and muscular balance. They’re specifically designed to tap into one’s deepest potential, in combination with your fitness training, yielding higher levels of physical fitness than you’ve ever imagined. At the end of each workout you’ll be rejuvenated and refreshed. You will love the way you feel while being amazed at how your overall active ability has improved.

Pilates and TRX will create awareness of the body’s optimal posture and develop will improve the mind-muscle connection. By adding these two methods to your workout regimen, you will achieve a more cohesive, overall level of fitness, while enhancing and improving your athletic performance.

Squash Caps Off a Big Year It’s been a great year in the MAC Squash community. The program is proud to have sent its top athletic member, Sean Ryan, and two elite juniors, Alec Spiro and Rowan Schnelby, to national championship tournaments on the East Coast. All played well and already are training for their next big event.

In preparation for these competitions, our juniors have been regularly participating in weekday clinics with club professionals Khalid and Mohsen Mir. These after-school clinics have been filled to capacity with aspiring young players. Both former national champions themselves, the Mirs have built a great legacy of national champions in the MAC youth program. Read more about Khalid on page 44.

Swimming

MAC Swimmers Rose to the Challenge MAC’s junior swim program is having a tremendous year. Sixty out of 86 competitive MAC Junior swimmers ages 8 to 18 qualified and competed at the Oregon Championships this spring. This is the highest number of qualifiers on the team to date. For more than five years, MAC coaches worked diligently and deliberately developing our age-group program, and results are starting to show.

“I am very pleased to see excellence and noteworthy achievements from swimmers in Continued on page 60

Swimming Continued from page 59 every level of the program, from age group level to senior swimmers,” says head coach Alex Nikitin. “We saw an unprecedented assault on MAC records this year.”

Beau Lonnquist, 10, Tory Schnebly, 8, and Kevin Keil, 12, set four new records; Elise Kreutzer, 13, and Brynne O’Shea, 13, each set one; and Tristan Furnary, 16, set a new state record, two open MAC records, and four age-group records, improving some of his own. There are numerous new entries in the MAC’s All-Time Top 5 record performances, including Tyler Soo, Piper Winder, Matthias Kreutzer, Cameron Chen, Tory Schnebly, Cody Soo, Kevin Keil, Doug Heymann and Van Matthias.

The short-course season culminated with a series of five championship meets held in quick succession, with 10 and unders starting first. Thirteen athletes competed this year – the largest group in many years. Of the 13 athletes, five placed in the top five for their individual events. We had a record four relays, with the boys medley relay placing fourth. The swimmers looked great and were well-prepared for challenging the competition. MAC’s individual state champions were Matthias Kreutzer, 9, in the 50 free, and Beau Lonnquist, 10, in the 50 and 100 backstroke.

The youngest MAC swimmers created great competitive momentum for the 11to 14-year-olds, who competed just a week apart. “In my 40-plus years of coaching, this has to be one of the best meets we’ve ever had,” says coach Gary Leach, commenting

on MAC swimmers’ performance at 11-14 state championship.

“Swimmers dropped times in every race, every stroke and every event, and that was just the preliminary session. Coming back in the finals these same swimmers dropped even more time,” he says.

Individual state champions included Kevin Keil, 12, in the 50 and 100 backstroke, and 50 and 100 breaststroke, Elise Kreutzer, 13, in the 50 and 100 freestyle, Van Mathias, 13, 100 butterfly and 100 breast stroke, Cody Soo, 11, 50 and 100 backstroke, and 100 individual medley. The MAC Swim Team took second place at state for the first time in 12 years.

Oregon Senior Championships were held at Mt. Hood Community College in Gresham.

MAC Boys won the 200 medley, stopping the clock 0.12 seconds shy of the state record (previously set by MAC swimmers), 400 medley, and 800 freestyle relays. Individual championship title winners were Eleanora Kemp, 200 backstroke, Grant Gooding, 500 free, and Tristan Furnary, 100 fly. Liam O’Shea took silver in the 1,000 free, and Jackson Locke Harris finished third in the 400 IM with a new senior sectional cut.

Two weeks later, these swimmers, along with their other qualified teammates, attended Age Group Sectionals and continued the winning tradition along with Jacob Breuer, 16, winning the 200 and 400 IM, Armani Dirks, 17, winning the 200 free (both boys set new meet records), Allie Engstrom, 16, 100 backstroke, second in the 200 backstroke, Kevin Keil, 12, 50 backstroke, and Elise Kreutzer, 13, 50/100 free. A team finish of seventh ranks as the best finish MAC has ever achieved at this level of competition. In the Boys 400 Medley

Athletics relay, Jacob Breuer, Armani Dirks, Nathan Nguyen and Brendan Carey took gold in a fierce contest, continuing MAC’s tradition of versatility and competitiveness.

Short-course season culminated with the NASA Junior National Cup, held in Clearwater, Fla. Tristan Furnary, 16, Grant Gooding, 16, and Tyler Soo, 16, took part in a competition that featured some of the finest 18 and under swimmers in the country.

Furnary had an outstanding meet, winning the 200 backstroke, finishing second in the 100 backstroke with a new Oregon record (both swims are MAC Open records), and placing third in the 200 IM, 400 IM and 100 breastroke. Soo swam a MAC all time top-five 50 free (ninth place), and 100 fly; Gooding swam a personal best 400 IM (eighth place), 200 breastroke (ninth place) and 200 backstroke.

Furnary qualified for Summer Junior National championships in Irvine, Calif. in August.

“Our team success is not an accident, but a result of many years of well-coordinated and focused work,” says head coach Alex Nikitin.

“I attribute this success to the continuous efforts of all the hardworking, competitive and talented swimmers, dedicated and experienced coaching staff, the supportive parent booster organization, and the MAC administration. Working together we can always achieve more.”

Swimming – Masters

MAC Clinches Third Straight Championship Winning is one thing; dominating across all events and age groups is another. That’s what the Masters Swim Team accomplished over the first weekend in April to become champions for the third year in a row, bringing home the medium-size team title at the Oregon Masters SCY Championships with a whopping 1,035 points.

The 22-person roster ranged in age from 23 to 66 years old, and put up impressive performances throughout the three-day meet.

Swimmers dueled teams from across the state and often raced for first- and second-place finishes against MAC teammates, or siblings, as was the case of Megan and Patrick Foley and Catherine Eastman and Alexandra Danielsen. Other MAC family pairs included Marc and Kelsey Bowen (father and daughter) and Robert Westlake and Ellen Ferguson (husband and wife). Most notable were finishes delivered by Christian Tujo, who raced the most yardage, and those who finished first in all of their individual events.

Synchro

Three Swimmers Vie for National Team Three MAC synchro swimmers tried out for USA Synchro’s national teams in Walnut Creek, Calif., in February. This program selects the top athletes in the 11-12, 13-15 and junior age categories to represent the United States in international competition.

Elli Wiita represents MAC on the U.S. Junior National Team and U.S. Senior National Team Training Squad.

Competitive Season The competitive season is in full swing for MAC’s junior program. The first travel meet of the season was the West Zone Championships

in Mesa, Ariz., in March. West Zones is a qualifying meet for the 13-15 Championships, and the top 11 finishers from the West Zone moved on to the national meet. The 13-15 team had its highest score of the season and qualified for nationals, finishing in eighth place. The duet of Jackie Zhang and Andrea Percic, and Renee Zhang’s solo routine also qualified for the national meet. The junior team also had a terrific meet, finishing in ninth place.

Next up was the Orange Blossom meet in Riverside, Calif., in March. The 13-15 team swam well and finished in second place – their highest placement at this meet to date. This was the first travel meet for the 11-12 team, and the first time competing out of state for many of the 11-12 team swimmers. They put in a great effort and brought home ninth place.

Andrea Percic, a member of the 13-15 team, had a fantastic meet, winning figures, solo, and duet with Jackie Zhang.

In the beginning of April, MAC competed in Oro Valley, Ariz., at the U.S. Nationals. This is the most competitive meet in USA Synchro, bringing together top teams from across the country in 13-15, junior and senior age categories. Two Canadian clubs and duets from Uruguay and Puerto Rico attended, as well, and competed in the honorary division. Despite the hot weather, all performances were excellent, and all MAC routines qualified for Finals.

Walking and Hiking

Hit the Trails This Summer MAC’s walkers and hikers have a wide variety of outings, from urban walks to wilderness treks, planned during the summer months.

Hosting Czech Swimmers MAC Synchro had the opportunity to host four Czech swimmers and their coaches in March for two weeks. Coaches Lucie Kryzerova and Jana Vidlarova (who also is

an international judge) trained with the girls twice a day, six days a week, for a qualifying meet in Europe up-on the swimmers’ return.

Athletics Walking and Hiking Continued from page 63 scheduled on Mondays or Fridays, since participation has been low on those days.

Tuesdays are usually reserved for outdoor workouts in the park, walking workshops, urban walks and close-in hikes. Most of them are half-day, but there are exceptions. For example, in May, Dog Mountain, a legendary but challenging wildflower hike, was offered on a Tuesday for those who appreciate a slower pace for photography stops.

Wednesdays in the summer are reserved for hiking mountain trails that are snow-covered most of the year. Expect lots of mileage and elevation gain. Seasoned hikers often spend the other months of the year working out to ensure they can enjoy these challenging hikes all summer and fall. Exact dates are yet to be set, but look for trips to Mount St. Helens, Mount Hood, Mount Adams, Mount Rainier, and summer and fall trips to Central Oregon. Wilderness rules limit group size, so it pays to check the monthly schedule as soon as it is published.

Thursday outings are more sporadic and may include a First Thursday Art Walk in the Pearl, an early-evening fitness walk into Forest Park, a morning urban exploration,

or a spontaneous hike to take advantage of spectacular weather.

Weekend walks and hikes are scheduled when both leaders and members express strong interest. MAC members tend to have full weekend schedules, so the most successful Saturday hikes tend to be those put together at the last minute, with plans shared through email and other social media. The best way for members to be in this information loop is to send an email to Walking and Hiking Coordinator Linda Starr at Lstarr@themac.com.

The walking and hiking monthly newsletter, The Journey, has been in publication for about 25 years, and continues to be published on the website, in print from Athletic Services, and mailed to members who request it. But now there is an additional way to access the schedule – the walking and hiking calendar on the website. Members can choose to use the list view or the more traditional full calendar view.

In the list view, green and red dots indicate reservation availability. Outings and events that do not require online registration are preceded by a red dot, indicating that the activity is unavailable even when it is open for participation.

The class is for students already familiar with yoga basics and poses and is part observation and part asana. It is a combination of looking at poses from the outside, along with exploring poses from the inside to discover an inner sense of alignment and support. The goal is to find a new freedom, clarity and spaciousness in one’s yoga routine, even when practicing a more vigorous flow.

This workshop is free of charge, but registration is required. Please visit theMAC.com for more information and to reserve a spot. WM

In 1966, tucked away in a corner of downtown Portland

Ron Tonkin began selling a little-known Italian car called

Ferrari

The Motivation Then, as it Remains Now was L OVE Through the fuel crises of the ‘70s, to the speculative ‘80s, and all the ebb and flow since, we stood fast when others would have, and did, move on to safer bets. But that was never the point for us.

RON TONKIN GRAN TURISMO

Ron Tonkin Gran Turismo was founded with the singular focus of providing the Pacific Northwest with the greatest cars in the world.

As a team, the Italian concept of ‘Scuderia’, each of us share Ron Tonkin’s affinity for these beautiful machines, and for each other.

It is why we do this. It is why we continue to do this. And it is why we have done this longer than anyone else.

Love is why we are America’s Oldest Ferrari Dealership.

This summer, we celebrate the memory of Ron Tonkin during the grand opening of our new home in Wilsonville, Oregon.
