pring at MAC is a time to celebrate our traditions and accomplishments and plan for the summer season soon to be upon us. The president’s job involves attending varying events honoring different groups of club David Horstkotte president members, and it’s always an honor to witness their many accomplishments. In late April, the Member Events Committee, chaired by Carol Robertson, hosted the annual Al Tauscher Junior and Teen Awards banquet. This year, MAC teen members Evelyn Bergler, Niko Kang, Layton Rosenfeld and Tori Segal were honored. Teen recipients included Charlotte Foden-Vencil, Jonathan Fortner, Rachael Haugh, Dylan Hite, Claire Rosenfeld, Matthew Sipowicz and Parker Wood. The seniors among the group were busy analyzing their college choices, as final decisions were due in just a few days. Since 1995, the club has honored more than 100 teen and junior members, recognizing overall participation rather than excellence in a singular activity. Consideration for the award includes active participation, at MAC, leadership abilities, community service, and a minimum GPA. I was met with a healthy dose of humility again that evening, as this year’s honorees are another outstanding group that would make Al proud. Al Tauscher had an incredibly broad influence on the club during his 50-year tenure, which began in 1923. A quote from a 1973 Winged M article summarizes his talents well: “If Al hasn’t taught it, it hasn’t been invented.” A compact man not to be underestimated, Al set a world record as the first person to lift more than twice his weight. He left his mark by creating a variety of lasting social events and teaching classes from archery to photography, wrestling to dance. My best memory of Al was as master of the club rifle range in its last days before the old clubhouse was razed in the early 1970s. My good friend Joey Gerber spent countless hours on the range with Al, remembering him as kind and helpful, always demonstrating the motto: safety first, then skill. Joey recalls lying among other junior members in a prone position focusing on distant targets,

as Al did a little soft-shoe tap dance behind them; perhaps to test their concentration or just a sign of his versatility. Al truly did it all.

Scholar Athletes The club began the MAC Scholar Athlete Program for high school sophomores from the 16 PIL schools in 1971. This year, La Salle Preparatory and West Linn High School were added, bringing the current total to 28 participating schools. Each school selects the award winner based on athletic, academic and community-service criteria. Recipients receive free MAC membership for the duration of their high school careers and may bring a friend with them anytime they visit the club to encourage their club use. Upon graduation, Multnomah Athletic Foundation awards a $1,500 scholarship to the two- or four-year institution they choose to attend. Scholar Athletes also are invited to transfer to active dues-paying membership upon completion of high school and to apply for regular membership at age 26. This year’s banquet was another showcase of impressive youth in our community, and it was a treat to spend time with their families and coaches as they each received their honor from Athletic Committee Chair Lorne Dauenhauer. Recipients and their families then had the opportunity to take a quick tour and become acquainted with the club. A special note of thanks is due to Sarah Burchard of Athletic Services who has done a terrific job coordinating the program for more than 10 years. Thank you, Sarah.

Summer is here Summer officially arrives on June 21, but the club is well ahead of the game. MAC summer camps begin Monday, June 15. Check out theMAC.com for camp/ class availability and try something new this summer. As most of you know, the Men’s Bar is now closed for the summer, and the club is working overtime to provide our members with different dining options. You may have seen the attractive new structures that popped up where the Sun Deck tent traditionally has been pitched. The Sunset Bistro will provide a relaxing outdoor bar area for senior members to complement the expanded Splash program, so be sure to stop by and check out the latest from Food & Beverage Manager Colby Hayden’s team of bartending maestros.

espair not, Norm is here and well, he has just asked others on the executive team to pen some of the Manager’s Columns this year.

Ornelas retirement Someone we have Tim Arbogast always been able Assistant General to count on we can Manager/CFO count on no more. After more than 17 years at MAC, Member Services Director Linda Ornelas is leaving to keep herself busy at a more leisurely pace as she moves into retirement. She and her husband, Louis, plan to travel and have more time to spend with their four children, who have spread themselves out across the nation. I have been fortunate to have worked with Linda for many of her years here at MAC. I have come to rely on her as someone who sees things through. Over the years she has tackled many projects, some at my request, some fairly substantial, others mundane. Linda is someone to tackle things large and small with fervor. Over the past 17 years, she has been a great asset to the club. For those of you who missed the reception held on Thursday, May 28, you can still stop into Member Services and bid her good luck. Her official last day is Friday, June 12. Oh, and a special message for the Budget and Finance Committee. The -M-porium sales are expected to dip, due to losing Linda as a big spender. Bon voyage, Linda!

Henderson hire The new era for Member Services has already begun. Josie Henderson has joined the club as Member Services Director. Josie joins us most recently from the Oregon Public Health Association, where she was their executive director. Prior to that, she held leadership roles at Telemedicine Research Center and the Association of Telehealth Service Providers. Portland has been home to Josie for the past 25 years. She and her husband, Bill, have two sons, Gabe and Hayden, who are Lincoln High School graduates. Both children are now off to schools in differing East Coast locations. Being the proud parent, Josie shared some of the successes of her sons; they are obviously driven individuals. If Josie is at all behind that drive, as I suspect

she is, then we can expect she will influence us to be better in what we do. Josie and her husband applied for MAC membership in the 2005 lottery. Fate would have it that luck was not on their side, and their number was not drawn. I am glad that 10 years later she applied again and was chosen – to be the Member Services Director, that is. Welcome to MAC, Josie.

Art-a-Palooza This year we have combined the Street Fair and the Ice Cream Social into one event from 4-6 p.m. Wednesday, June 24. Last year, the fair made a lot of people happy when they got to dunk then-President Darcy Henderson. There is no dunk tank this year, but rumor has it that President David Horstkotte might be on hand. He has not committed, but interactive entertainment on the stage would be delightful.

Seeking member input Soon we will be reaching out to families with children up to age 17 for feedback related to junior programs and facilities. If we reach out to you, please participate to help us better understand the programing desires for your children.

We all SHINE on The MAC Staff has made a commitment to the SHINE service standard. If you find we are not living up to our commitment, please let us know. Our goal is to provide members and guests with outstanding service. Smile and acknowledge. When you are present we shall be present giving you our full attention. Hold to the highest standard. What we do, we shall do well. Individualize interactions. Your need may not be unique, but you are, and we should interact with you accordingly. Notice and take action. We are empowered; we will try to anticipate your needs and act. Eliminate obstacles. We shall own your concerns and needs and will strive to overcome the hurdles. WM

Honoring MAC members for placing first, second or third in state, regional, national or international athletic competitions, or members who have qualified for nationals in events that qualify for championship funding.

ast month I experienced two very different weekends back-to-back. They highlighted the balance between long-range planning and living inthe-moment, both of which are typical of the challenges we regularly face around MAC. Ed Stoner I spent the first Athletic Director weekend with the Board of Trustees considering long-range capital plans, as well as outlining some long-range goals for our athletics staff, which has several new managers, including Aquatics Manager Jason Amos and Youth Programs Manager Cathy Heinke. The following weekend was spent as a presenter for the Ohio University Sports Administration program’s symposium. It was a weekend filled with in-the-moment activities and decisions. Both were fun, but required very different skills and perspectives. While George Bernard Shaw stated, “In the long run we will all be dead,” my longterm perspective is a little shorter, say 10-20 years. Having a long-term view is important, as without a specific target you cannot maximize your efforts to get there or even know you have arrived. When working at the University of Louisville we created an ambitious 20-year facility master plan; but with a set target and focus, they finished the plan in 15 years. It has transformed the campus and its athletics program. Yet, one can miss the current moment planning the future moment, and not enjoy the journey and day-to-day experiences. For instance, this time of year, many parents are proud to send their children to college (a long-term goal), but yearn for more time and moments with their children, which they seem to have missed in the hustle and bustle. And, sometimes the two collide. The graduate students at symposium appreciated the long-term perspective provided by the alumni, but were also concerned with which bar to go to afterward and which internship to follow. Each day MAC staff adjust classes, swap out equipment and work to maximize the moment for our members, yet sometimes these changes (or lack thereof) are made looking to the future, to a long-term goal such as last year’s closure of the 50-meter Pool for renovation. Balancing the here-and-now versus the long-term isn’t always easy, but is something on which the Board, Athletic Committee and staff continue to work toward. Now if I can only decide whether to see you at Splash or the Sunset Bistro later this month. WM

FACES IN THE CLUB The MAC Climbing Team won its fifth consecutive Sport and Speed Climbing Regional Championship at The Spire Climbing Center in Bozeman, Montana, in May. MAC had a record 21 climbers qualify for Divisional Championships in Bend in June during the event. Regional champions included, from left, Aidan Schenk, Carson Fritz, Brett Walker, Olivia Durant, Lauren Smith and Hannah Park. Top finishers at Divisionals advance to Nationals in Atlanta this summer. MAC climbers excelled at speed climbing despite the club completing its speed wall less than a year ago.

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

The Portland Thorns signed intermediate member Kendall Johnson this season. Johnson has helped the team to a 2-1-2 start, starting every game. This is the defender’s second season in the NWSL. Sky Blue FC drafted her in the first round in 2013, and she started every game during her rookie season before transferring to the Western Sydney Wanderers in Australia to play during the offseason. The Portland native played college soccer at the University of Portland, and was a three-time All-West Coast Conference selection, earning Defensive Player of the Year honors in 2012. She was part of the U.S. U-23 Women’s National Team pool in 2013.

Junior member Parker Andersen won the Oregon Zone U12 Overall Boys Ski Championship at Timberline Lodge and Ski Area in March. In alpine technical events, skiers race both giant slalom and slalom. The winner is the athlete with the lowest combined time from both disciplines, not necessarily the winner of each individual run. Parker was dominant in the event, capturing both the giant slalom race and the slalom race by winning every single run he took. Parker is in sixth grade at The Catlin Gabel School. He also plays soccer for Catlin, is an avid mountain biker and loves wake boarding.

Junior member Samanatha WoodringOtterholt won the super G and giant slalom at the PNSA (Divisional) Buddy Werner U14 Championships at Schweitzer Mountain Resort in Idaho in March. Sami won both races by over a second, and finished a solid seventh in the slalom to finish second overall. Her performance helped her to be selected by the United States Ski Association to compete at U16 National Championships in Sugarloaf, Maine. She is in eighth grade at Oregon Episcopal Academy and is racing for OES next year. Samantha also plays lacrosse, and enjoys kiteboarding and paddleboarding. She has been skiing with MAC since she was 5.

Intermediate member Sam Director graduated from Whitworth University in Spokane in May, earning the honor as the Outstanding Male Student of the class of 2015, as voted by the school’s faculty. Director is the founder of the Whitworth Student Symposium and is an award-winning member of the school’s nationally ranked forensics team. Additionally, as a student who maintained a 4.0 grade point average throughout college, he is one of four students in his class to be honored with The President’s Cup. This summer, Director is participating in a summer ministry fellowship, working for the Church of Scotland. Director hopes to earn a Ph.D. in philosophy. june 2015

Ski Program Coordiantor Justin Rackley recently earned top of class honors at the United States Ski and Snowboard Association Alpine Coaches Academy at Mammoth Mountain in California in May. Rackley earned his level 300 alpine coaching certification, and earned the highest cumulative score in his class across three component – skiing, movement anaylsis and a 178-question exam. Rackley joined the MAC ski program in 2013 after skiing at the elite level in the U.S. NorAm Tour and teaching at the Beaver Creek Ski School in Colorado. Rackley started skiing on Mount Hood at age 2, and skied locally on the Lakeridge High School team before college.

Food service returns to the Sun Deck from noon-8 p.m., seven days a week, beginning Wednesday, June 10.

Splash Returns to the Sun Deck S

ummer in the City of Roses is anything but predictable, but when the sun is out there is no better place to live. MAC continues to expand its summer offerings this year. Splash on the Sun Deck and poolside dining is back with even more to offer. Splash opens when the weather forecast calls for 70 degrees and above with less than 30 percent chance of rain. You can check the website for updates, and the Splash hotline at 503-517-6635 lets you know if Splash is open that day. Hours for food service are noon-8 p.m. seven days a week beginning Wednesday, June 10. Please check pool schedules for open swim times. The Facilities Department upgraded the utilities and added a new ADA lift to assist guest access to the upper Sun Deck. The addition of the lift and improved infrastructure assures that staff can offer a wide range of culinary items and services. As MAC continually works to stay updated, facilities works behind the scenes, making great things possible. Cooking near the big tent is no longer allowed, which required us to make some changes to our set-up. The Sun Deck features a smaller tent space for the kitchen and a separate tent space for the new bar. There are tables with umbrellas for dining, and a relaxing bar area for adult members age 21 and older to enjoy sipping their favorite summer drinks. After 5 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday, adults can

enjoy cocktails from the custom-designed MAChattans Bar. Food & Beverage Manager Colby Hayden and his team of mixoligists have created the prefect summer retreat in the heart of the city (see opposite page). The improvements have been well received by Chef Philippe Boulot and his culinary team, who have designed an outdoor kitchen and new summer menus. Splash features items such as rotisserie Cascade Farms chicken, sandwich wraps, burgers and made-to-order specialty salads. In addition, there are new offerings for children, including: Cascade Farms chicken tacos, a little Splash burger and a Tillamook grilled cheese sandwich. Poolside games and sidewalk chalk also return. All summer long, enjoy everything your club has to offer, from summer camps to lessons, the Timbers to the Thorns, the club is a great way to start, enjoy or finish your day. During shared pool times with water fitness classes, we ask that parents be extra vigilant in helping their children be quiet and respectful of senior members enjoying their fitness classes in the deep end. These shared times are 1:30-2:15pm and 5:456:15pm Monday – Friday. There are now etiquette guidelines for juniors that will be posted at the Sun Deck Pool and lifeguards and parents are tasked with enforcing these guidelines. WM

New Outdoor Restaurant Opens on the Sun Deck

O

ne of the characteristics of a great team is the ability to adapt. When faced with this summer’s closure of the Men’s Bar due to the kitchen construction, the Food and Beverage team did just that – we adapted. In an effort to keep our hardworking and dedicated staff employed and offer members an exclusive outdoor dining experience, the

A delicious menu, features items such as whole rotisserie chicken, prime rib, and roasted corn on the cob. Food and Beverage management team created the Sunset Bistro concept, which opens Wednesday, June 10 on the Sun Deck. Besides having nightmares about wicker furniture, natural gas lines, installing a lift, and reaching concensus on a name a logo, the process was relatively painless. The Sunset Bistro is MAC’s first-ever outdoor restaurant, featuring a full bar, lounge and kitchen. Men’s Bar Bartender Roni Pervizi leads the bar program. Pervizi opened and ran a rooftop bar at Conrad Hilton when he was in New York. Expect unique summer cocktails such as the “Citizen Cane” and the “Loopy Doopy.” The actual bar is constructed from

recycled wood from a Jim Beam Distillery warehouse in Kentucky, and features 10 bar stools. Executive Chef and James Beard Award winner Phillipe Boulot and his team have put together a delicious menu, featuring items such as whole rotisserie chicken, prime rib, and roasted corn on the cob. The outdoor kitchen includes a natural gas line powering a full grill and rotisserie.

Food & Beverage Manager Colby Hayden and his team of mixoligists have created the prefect summer retreat in the heart of the city. Enjoy this new adults-only area on the Sun Deck.

Sunset Bistro Q&A Q: Are Men’s Bar Promotions transfer to the Sunset Bistro? A: No, during construction all Men’s Bar promotions are suspended, including birthday cards, the Brown Bottle Society, No Corkage Saturdays, and the dice game at the bar. Q: What are the Sunset Bistro hours? A: The Sunset Bistro is open from 5-9 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday, weather permitting. Q: Are children allowed? A: Children are allowed on the Sun Deck and poolside with Splash.

Culinary Sports Pub Remains Open for Entire Summer

hef Deanna Bascom has partnered with the MAC Wellness Program to help members find menu items that fit in with their lifestyle choices. Look for the MAC Wellness logo to find wellness-approved dishes. Bascom was instrumental in adding ingredients and nutritional labels to many items in Joe’s as well. The club continues to work with staff and members to encourage healthy habits where we can. Keep watching the Sports Pub menu for more seasonally inspired wellness items all summer long. Of course, some of our favorite guilty pleasures do not meet MAC Wellness requirements, but we strive to provide a balanced menu with options for everyone. While the Men’s Bar is closed this summer, the Sports Pub will add favorites such as razor clams, the bacon blue salad and Double R Ranch prime rib to the menu. And don’t forget to stop by the Sports Pub before Timbers and Thorns matches at Providence Park this summer.

Missing your Men’s Bar favorites this summer? Stop by the Sports Pub, where a few select dishes from the Men’s Bar such as razor clams are on the menu.

ADMINISTRATIVE

In Memoriam Constance McGonigle March 14, 1939-April 11, 2015 Senior member Constance McGonigle died April 11. She was 76. Vibrant, lively, wise, beautiful, treasured, classy, determined, inspiring and remarkable. These are the words friends use to describe Connie. Born March 14, 1939, in Portland, Connie attended Catlin Gable School and enjoyed horse riding and camps in the summers. She attended University of Oregon, pledged as a Chi Omega sister, and graduated in 1960 with a degree in political science as a member of Phi Beta Kappa. After graduation, she taught high school social science and English classes in The Dalles. Her students still remember her fondly. She eventually returned to Portland State University for her master’s degree in social work and dedicated the rest of her career to counseling and advocating for those struggling, particularly with mental health and psychiatric challenges. She worked for Children’s Services in Portland, then continued family social work in Honolulu. She returned to Portland in the early 1990s and worked at the VA psychiatric unit in Portland, and then finished her career at Portland Providence and St. Vincent’s emergency departments less than one year ago. Connie was a true social worker at all times, often offering up a piece of useful and appreciated advice to friends with a smile and a laugh. Connie had a zest for life and always had an exciting adventure planned, often to Hawaii or Mexico. She regularly hiked in Forest Park with her girlfriends, ran and walked the Honolulu and Portland marathons, and adored spending time with her beloved animals. For the past 14 years, she enjoyed hiking and traveling with her partner, Mark. She enjoyed the past year of her retirement by traveling, hiking, taking Spanish classes, yoga, enjoying new restaurants, and was about to adopt or foster a dog. No one could make oversize leopard printglasses look better or a game of bridge sound more dangerous than Connie. Connie continued to be a treasured friend of her Chi Omega sorority sisters through her life, with many reunions over 55 years. She will remain a presence whenever her sisters get together to play cards, lunch, hike and reminisce. Connie leaves behind countless friends, many of whom she had stayed connected with for more than 40 years, her partner of 14 years, Mark, and her dear cat, Sidon.

Lorraine Gould Robertson Sept. 14, 1936-April 28, 2015 Lorraine Gould Robertson died April 28, 2015. She was 78. Lorraine was born to Jack and Norma Gould in New York on Sept. 14, 1936. She had a brother, Jack Jr., who was two years her senior. The family moved to outer southeast Portland in the 1940s. Jack and Norma built the house on Southeast 96th Avenue and Powell Boulevard. Lorraine transferred to Cleveland High School for her senior year after the family moved to their English-style house on Southeast 44th Avenue and Holgate Boulevard. Lorraine worked as an elevator operator her senior year and then was hired by KPTV, where she worked during the early 1960s. She married Gordon Robertson and had a son, Jeffrey. In 1963, Lorraine and Jeffrey moved to Seattle’s Magnolia District. Lorraine worked in broadcast media as an executive until 1980, when she moved to Beaverton. She continued in advertising for Katz in Portland, then retired and moved to Mountain Park. Lorraine was a MAC member for many years. She was involved with the Portland Art Museum, charities and numerous clubs. Lorraine had many friends and was outgoing, gracious and adventurous. She traveled extensively and was a fine photographer. She had a powerful personality and a will to succeed. Tragically, Lorraine was in a terrible car accident in 2009 and courageously fought to recover. After a long struggle, she succumbed to the effects of the accident and is now at peace with God and her family.

Jon C. Vessely Dec. 31, 1936-March 27, 2015 Jon C. Vessely, M.D., of Lake Oswego, loving husband, father, grandfather and friend, died Friday, March 27, at the Cleveland Clinic from a sudden, unexpected bacterial infection, necrotizing fasciitis. He was 78. Born Dec. 31, 1936, in Hamilton, Ohio, to Frank and Romilda Moore Vessely, Jon spent his early years playing sports and working in his father’s butcher shop. He attended Ohio State University, where friendships were forged that remained with him throughout life. Jon met his wife, Pat, when she enrolled in a math class he taught and she asked him to be her tutor. When he graduated with a bachelor of science degree in June of 1957, he and Pat married the next day and then headed for the University of Cincinnati medical school, where he earned his medical degree in 1963, had two sons, and then entered the U.S. Navy in San Diego. During the Vietnam War, Jon served on the seaplane tender, USS Currituck and the hospital ship Haven, retiring to inactive naval duty as a lieutenant commander. Continued on page 20

ADMINISTRATIVE In Memoriam Continued from page 19 He completed an orthopedic surgery residency under Dr. Charles Herndon, at Case Western Reserve, Cleveland, where his daughter was born. The family moved to Portland the summer of 1971, where Jon went into practice with Drs. Howard J. Geist, Robert H. Post and Edward A. Grossenbacher. Jon’s greatest joy was his family. He took great happiness and pride in the love, character and achievements of his children, Mike, Andy and Jill. In the past 17 years, he was an active participant in the lives of his grandchildren, Madeleine and Meredith Vessely, Benjamin and Christopher Vessely, and Max and Lizzy Greenwood. Physical activity (handball, golf and hiking) made him happy. He and Pat were fortunate to travel to many places, Italy being his favorite, and the place to which he was always ready to return. Jon carved meat at all family and friends’ gatherings, and with a twinkle in his eyes began to sharpen the knife in what his grandchildren called “the Nonno dance.” Jon filled our days and brightened our lives with his wit, intelligence, integrity and, most of all, his love. We have vast stores of memories and photos that keep him with us forever.

“Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Some people move our souls to dance. They awaken us to a new understanding with the passing whisper of their wisdom. Some people make the sky more beautiful to gaze upon. They stay in our lives for a while, leave footprints on our hearts and we are never, ever the same.” – Flavia Weedn Jon had great concern about childhood immunizations and access to medical care.

Wimberly McRae Warren Feb. 14, 1949-April 8, 2015 We mark the passing of a beloved man. Known to many as “Wink,” senior family member Wimberly McRae Warren, 66, died on April 8, 2015, felled by a sudden heart attack. Active throughout his life in both sports and business, Wink enjoyed life enormously. He was born in Missoula, Montana, the second of five children to Carol and Cameron Warren, and fondly remembered his days growing up in the small university town where lively antics were around every corner. He

enjoyed pushing limits – fodder for many amusing and hair-raising stories – throughout his life. Though he found it particularly difficult to leave his Montana childhood friends at age 13 when his family moved to Portland, he fostered many new relationships in Oregon that would last a lifetime. Wink made life fun for others. After attending Bridlemile Elementary School, he spent his high school years at Woodrow Wilson, where he demonstrated a wide range of athletic ability, from football to trampoline, a sport in which he won a city championship. He attended both the University of Oregon and Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in Florida. After college, his working life began in sales and later as a real estate broker for Norris, Beggs and Simpson. Then he founded Warren Properties to broker and manage commercial projects for Three Oaks Development Co. He continued to be involved in real estate ventures with family partners until his death. An active member of Multnomah Athletic Club, he played racquetball, winning several club championship tournaments. His favorite sport, though, was golf; he had a deep love and respect for the game and all it offers. Wink married Christine Slorah of Kirkland, Washington in 1972. For a few

ADMINISTRATIVE years, he and Chris traveled together as representatives of Recreation Industries, selling automatic boat loaders. Wink’s warm and friendly nature made sales easy for him. They lived first in Bend, then settled long-term in Southwest Portland, where they raised two children, a daughter, Erin, and son, Micah. A loving and involved father, whether teaching his children to swim or playing ball in the yard, the simple joy of spending time together seemed to fill his heart. The loss of his daughter to cancer at age 4 devastated him. But in time, fueled by gratitude for his son and wife, his spirit rebounded. After semi-retiring in 2000, Wink relished spending more time with friends, took up wood-carving, mentored his son in business development, and enjoyed traveling with Chris in their motorhome as they toured the country while participating in art shows. Last year, they witnessed the marriage of his son and just eighteen days before his death, the birth of their first grandchild. He is deeply mourned and dearly missed by his friends and family. He is preceded in death by his parents, Lois Carol and Cameron James Warren, his daughter Erin, and his father-in-law, Ray Slorah. Remembrances may be made by making a donation to either Thomas A.

What, if anything, does the passage of Measure 91 change with regard to Multnomah Athletic Club’s rules on marijuana? The short answer is absolutely nothing. Recreational marijuana becomes legal in the State of Oregon July 1. The state law will allow anyone 21 and older to possess up to 1 ounce of marijuana in a public place and up to 8 ounces at home. However, marijuana is still classified as a Schedule 1 drug under the Federal Controlled Substances Act. MAC continues to maintain a zero tolerance policy on marijuana. It will comply with federal laws that consider both recreational and medical marijuana illegal. The sale, exchange, unlawful use or possession of a controlled substance on the club premises is prohibited and subject to sanctions under Club Rules. The restriction also applies to any club-sponsored event off campus. The club’s restrictions apply to recreational and medical marijuana in all forms, including edibles. A member found possessing, using, selling or exchanging marijuana or other unlawful controlled substance on club premises, or possessing associated paraphernalia, is subject to discipline by the House Committee and Board of Trustees. Possible sanctions range from suspension to expulsion. Police involvement may be requested at the discretion of club management. Members are responsible for the conduct of their guests and will be charged with any violation of this policy by nonmembers they introduce to the club. It is the member’s responsibility to inform guests of this rule and take immediate steps to escort the guest from the club if they are in violation. Parents also are encouraged to discuss the policy with their junior and intermediate age children. WM

 Easy The Eastside Esplanade and Springwater Trail are world-famous. Unique opportunities include riding right at water-level on the floating walkway, or cruising a full three miles without a single street crossing, right from downtown. Ample free street parking near OMSI, or near the Sellwood Bridge make access to the trail easy, even with young children or friends that do not ride a lot. Salmon and Taylor streets work well to connect the trail to the clubhouse. http://ridewithgps.com/routes/2193986

 Medium Portland’s West Hills, or the Tualatin Mountains, are often used for clubhouse rides offering more challenging hills. Portland trivia: connect MAC, Collins Circle, a city park named for a church group, Cornell Mountain Tunnel 1 (built in 1940) and 2 (1941), and what do you get? A relatively car-free ascent, spectacular ridgetop views of several cities and weather, and a thrilling descent.  http://ridewithgps.com/routes/7517720  Join MAC rides most Wednesday nights, and the Second Saturday of most months.

Eola Hills Wine Ride Spectacular scenery, low-traffic roads, delicious brunch and award-winning wine – it’s that time of year again. The MAC Cycling Committee is putting the finishing touches on this year’s Eola Hills Wine ride on Sunday, July 19. There are three route options this year, with rides in the 20-, 40- and 60-mile range. The routes are relatively flat, and travel through the town of Independence, and across the Willamette River on the historic Buena Vista Ferry. These are non-competitive rides and you’re free to move at your own pace. New this year, the cycling committee is working on a special advance purchase of Eola Hills Wine to offer members at a reduced price. The committee is also handing out prizes during brunch. Register online at theMAC.com. The cost for the ride is $15 and includes maps, marked course, support vehicle and ride leaders. Brunch is an additional $22 and is payable directly to the winery. Also, please remember to bring $1 for the ferry ride.

 Difficult Oregon’s snowy winters result in many closed mountain roads. Adventure cyclists have discovered this can create great opportunities for late spring car-free rides after the snow melts, but before locked gates open. The most famous such route is McKenzie Pass, best enjoyed with an overnight stay in Sisters or near Belknap Hot Springs. The crux of the 70-mile ride, about 30 miles of Highway 242 between McKenzie Bridge and Sisters, is open to cyclists and pedestrians but closed to cars for a few weekends at the beginning of each summer.  http://ridewithgps.com/routes/2193986 Continued on page 29 McKenzie Pass Summit 5329’ Obsidian Trailhead 4664’

 Easy Walk a “Towns to Trails” connection between two Gorge towns. This one travels from Skamania Lodge on a new trail that leads to the seldom-driven road around Ashes Lake, a quiet, mostly flat trek on gravel. Emerge from that at the Bridge of the Gods, next to a gravesite from an 1850s Indian massacre at one of the U.S. Army forts at the Cascades of the Columbia. Cross the bridge (50 cents each way for pedestrians) and have lunch at Thunder Island Brewing, which overlooks the 1895 locks that were submerged by construction of the Bonneville Dam in 1937.

Al Tauscher Teen Recognition Awards Granted to Exceptional Young MAC Members photos by Joseph Palazzo In 1995, Multnomah Athletic Club established a tradition of honoring outstanding young members with the Al Tauscher Junior and Teen Recognition Award. Tauscher was an inspirational instructor, coach and youth mentor who joined MAC as an athletic member in 1915 and continued that association until his retirement in 1983. Each year the Member Events Committee accepts award nominations and reviews the candidates. The award has recognized and honored more than 100 teen and junior members. The award includes two age groups: juniors (grades six through eight) and teens (grades nine through 12). A nominee must demonstrate exceptional leadership, inspirational behavior, great teamwork, and participation in extracurricular interests, and community service. Nominees must attain a cumulative grade-point average of 3.0 for juniors and 3.5 for teens, and must participate in MAC social and athletic activities. The winners were honored at an awards banquet on April 27. Following are profiles of the seven teen and four junior award recipients.

June 2015

Charlotte Foden-Vencil is an outstanding student athlete. Charlotte takes challenging courses at Lakeridge High School and holds herself to high standards regarding grades and academic achievement. She is a level 9 MAC gymnast, working out five days a week for over four hours a day, and competing for MAC all over the western United States. Charlotte also represented MAC in Japan a couple years ago and “was a wonderful ambassador for the program,” according to coach Meg Doxtater, who added, “What most impresses me about Charlotte is her honesty and openness. She is able to articulate when she isn’t feeling well or when she is injured and always has a plan for how she wants to deal with the situation.” In addition to Charlotte’s academic and athletic achievements, she feels that it is important to give back to her community, particularly to those in need. She volunteers for Potluck in the Park on a regular basis, because the experience provides her the opportunity to help homeless people in a personal and direct way by actually cooking meals for them. Charlotte is very compassionate in all areas of her life, be it at home, at school, in the gym or at work. She is an essential team player, is always supportive of her teammates, and leads by example with her strong work ethic and respect for others. She also is known for her sense of humor, which helps to diffuse the stresses of training and competition.

In addition to his academic achievements, Jonathan also is an accomplished athlete. He has played football, basketball and baseball, but baseball remains his true passion, and he hopes to play after high school. Jon’s peers, neighbors and coaches think very highly of him. His baseball coach, C.J. Watson, states, “Jon displays an excellent work ethic inside the classroom and in the weight room. He has shown an eagerness to succeed athletically, academically and within the community.” Jon has been a fixture at MAC all of his life, enjoying the usual assortment of youth activities, including swimming lessons, Family Fridays and Junior Dances, and he also played on MAC black basketball teams for several years. He often can be found in the MAC batting cages. Jon continuously works on improving his athletic abilities and works out with a MAC personal trainer on a regular basis. As a fifth-grader, Jon once addressed the Portland School Board on the importance of keeping physical education classes in elementary schools. He also has been an active volunteer for the Oregon Food Bank, Hands on Greater Portland, and Portland Parks and Recreation. Jon is a remarkable young man who has a great future and is a natural role model for fellow teens and younger children. He is a remarkable blend of talent, discipline, leadership and warmth.

Year in soccer and was first team All-State as a goalkeeper. In her first year of competitive tennis, she and her doubles partner finished second in the state tournament. As a freshman, she earned an individual spot in the state golf tournament, and finished 24th in a field of 75. But her favorite sport is basketball. She earned Athlete of the Week honors from the Portland Tribune for a tournament in which she averaged 22 points, and was named second team All-State. Rachael also is committed to community service. Through her school she has volunteered for numerous causes, and each summer spends five weeks volunteering with the AASK program. This program provides student mentors and counselors to assist underprivileged ESL students. She recently spent her spring break volunteering at orphanages in Thailand. Throughout high school, she has completed over 400 service hours. Rachael is a strong leader and has been cocaptain of her basketball team for two years. Next year she will captain both her soccer and basketball teams. Calm and grounded, her leadership qualities are an inspiration to her peers. According to her basketball coach, Missy Smith, “Rachael exudes leadership skills that bring unity to all she is involved in. She possesses skills that teachers and coaches dream could be cloned. She brings a constant balance of optimism, support and dedication to all of her peers in the different areas that she is a part of.”

at Jesuit, “the thing about Dylan is that I have never seen her seek recognition for what she does. She readily helps when a struggling student needs a tutor; she encourages younger runners when other juniors and seniors choose to ‘hang’ by themselves after a race. Her leadership is by example and not by show.” Through Jesuit, Dylan helps lead the food drive every year and participates in the First Friday Feast, during which a small group of students take sandwiches and coffee to the Beaverton Transit Center as a gesture of friendship and community. She also has volunteered for Special Olympics, Oregon Food Bank and the Mt. Hood Kiwanis Camp for people with disabilities, and serves as a Eucharistic minister at Jesuit Mass every week. Running is a big part of Dylan’s life, and she has been on her school’s varsity cross country and track teams for four years. Her coach, Tom Rothenberger, states, “Dylan has set herself apart in her ability to commit herself to an endeavor and follow through with her best effort. She not only has a desire to excel, but she is truly willing to do the work necessary to be successful. Her drive is equally impressive whether she is working with the team or if she must do the work by herself.” Dylan recently committed to run for the University of Portland beginning this fall.

Continued from page 33 ideal combination of skills, personal attributes and talents, leadership and community service.” A sophomore at Catlin Gabel, Claire plays varsity soccer and basketball, varsity lacrosse for Lincoln, and is on a junior tennis team. MAC has played a vital role in her development in these sports, as well as synchronized swimming, gymnastics, dance and table tennis. Her dad says, “If MAC had overnight rooms and a school, for Claire, it would be the perfect way to spend a life!” Claire challenges herself with honors-level classes, earning the highest grades achievable. A natural leader, her peers selected her to serve on the school’s distinguished Judicial Council. Claire participates in the Marimba Club, Model UN, Robotics Program, and AWSEM (Advocates for Women in Science, Engineering, and Math). At a regional Startup Camp, she’s served as a student leader, organizer and a company CEO. Serving the larger community is important to Claire, tutoring disadvantaged children, working at the Food Bank, Race for the Cure, the Special Olympics, and the Oregon Jewish Community Youth Foundation. Contributing her bat mitzvah donations to a cause near and dear to her heart, The Claire Rosenfeld BB Camp Fund is now a permanent endowed fund at the B’nai B’rith Camp, awarding need-based scholarships to those who might otherwise not be able to attend. Claire’s unique combination of academic excellence, athletic abilities, community involvement, and natural-born leadership make her an ideal Al Tauscher Award recipient.

A senior at OES, Matthew Sipowicz is a strong student athlete and a willing community volunteer. According to John Holloran, Director of Studies at OES, “Few students are more determined and persistent in their efforts. When Matthew sets his mind on something, he applies himself with the spirit of the underdog willing to do whatever it takes to get where he wants to be.” Matthew has been learning Spanish since kindergarten, and during his junior year, he was selected, along with a small group of fellow students, to participate in a service project in the Dominican Republic teaching children English in Spanish. Currently, Matthew works weekly with fourth-graders at Vose Elementary School in Beaverton, teaching math completely in Spanish. Matthew is an outstanding athlete. For the past two years, he won the OSAA High School State 4A Title, and helped his tennis team win three straight state championships. In soccer, he helped lead his team to three straight state finals, winning the last two. He received the “man of the match” nomination in the championship last year, and for his senior year was named the OSAA 3A All-State Soccer Player of the Year. Yet Matthew still always takes time to help other players improve, just one of the many qualities which, in his recommendation of Matthew, prompted OES Boys Varsity Soccer Coach Justin Kerr to write, “I have been blessed to coach Matthew for the last four years.” Matthew truly embodies the values, goals, and responsibilities that accompany great leadership.

Parker Wood is an exceptional athlete, a strong student, and a committed member of our community. For the past seven years, Parker has diligently studied karate and has recently earned her black belt. As a junior at Lincoln High School, she is diligent in her academics studies. While highly committed to academics, she also remains dedicated to community, including our community right here at MAC. As a member of the MAC karate program, Parker has represented the club at both the regional and national levels. She competed in USA Nationals five times and won gold once, silver twice and bronze once. In 2014, Parker represented MAC at the U.S. Invitational and Junior International Cup tournaments in Reno, Nev., where she placed fourth in both competitions. Parker also regularly helps mentor and instruct beginner and advanced karate classes at MAC. While in school, Parker has enjoyed activities such as band, school plays, painting, and most recently, the Culinary Arts program at Lincoln. She is enrolled in the International Baccalaureate program and is taking collegelevel pre-calculus. Outside of school, Parker gives generously of her time and hard-earned money to help those around her. She raised money and participated in the MS Walk for the past three years, and helped Portland Pet Shelters, Food Bank, the Trevor Project, HRC, and most recently; helped ‘Hands on Portland’ construct a school garden for Alder Elementary. As MAC Karate Instructor Bill Plapinger stated, “Whatever path she takes, Parker will work hard to achieve her goals and help make the world a better place.” WM

Still, Evie considers this place her home away from home. She has cultivated many friendships and has been involved in many activities, including swim lessons, soccer camps, dance, gymnastics and Junior Dances, to name a few. When it comes to sports, Evie has played soccer on an SESC team since second grade, and runs track for Sellwood Middle School, but has found her passion in gymnastics, competing on MAC’s XCEL team. She is a recognized leader in these sports, as well as at school, and was selected by her classmates and teachers to be a Peer Helper. In this role, she assists fellow students in day-to-day dilemmas and learning, and acts as a liaison between students and school staff. In terms of Community Service, Evie organized a baby-sitting summer camp for kids in her neighborhood that was a huge success. She volunteers at Meals on Wheels and My Father’s House with her grandparents. Evie received many recommendations for this award from peers, parents, neighbors and coaches. The accolades go on and on, but all reflect the words of one of her coaches: “Evie is motivated and a very hard worker. She is sensitive to other peoples’ emotions. … She understands people and likes to cheer on others. She does not need to be the center of attention, she enjoys celebrating other people’s successes with them.”

Niko is currently attending the French American International School (FAIS) where he maintains a high grade-point average. He enjoys participating in numerous sports, and is currently focused on soccer. Niko also understands the importance of giving to those less fortunate and is actively involved in his community.

Layton Rosenfeld Catlin Gabel • 8th Grade “Have you ever met a young person who you know is going to impact the world for the better? That special child that even at 10 or 11 stands out in character unlike his or her peers? The kid whose positivity and willingness to be kind to others does not depend on what is reciprocated, but is based on deeply held values about how we should all be in the world?” This, in the words of Catlin Gabel Middle School Head Barbara Ostos, perfectly describes Layton. An exemplary student, Layton excels academically while serving as a strong role model and leader for her fellow classmates and peers. Collectively, they participate in book drives and tutoring disadvantaged children. She was elected class president, and has participated on the school’s cross-country, basketball, and soccer teams (all of which won league championships), and was selected to play on the Oregon Olympic Development Program State Soccer Team. Layton has a strong work ethic and unique ability to lead effortlessly, on and off the field. Outside of school, Layton volunteers for Special Olympics, Race for the Cure, and Oregon Food Bank. In lieu of bat mitzvah gifts, she made a donation to allergy research at OHSU. She conceived the “summer soccer and crafts for first and second-graders” run out of her own home and yard. Layton inspired these youngsters to try unfamiliar activities, developing new skills and friends along the way. Layton showed them through giggles and hard work the importance of good sportsmanship and being a team player in all that you do. Well-rounded, thoughtful and engaged, Layton embodies all that an Al Tauscher award winner represents.

Victoria Siegel West Sylvan Middle School • 8th Grade As a student at West Sylvan Middle School, Tori Siegel has been involved in many activities.

What makes her unique is her pursuit to being the best, training hard and balancing her time with her sports, climbing and other life commitments. She has grown up at MAC and since age 9 been an active member of the MAC Climbing Team, where she has achieved great success. Since 2011, she has represented MAC six times at the U.S. National Championships. In 2014, she became the first MAC climber to place in the top 15 in all three disciplines of climbing (Sport Climbing, Bouldering and Speed Climbing) in a single season. In 2014, she placed in the top 10 in Bouldering and Speed Climbing, she won two regional championships, and helped her team win two regional championships in the process. She is the only female from MAC to reach the finals at a national rock climbing event. According to MAC Head Rock Climbing Coach Drew White, “Victoria exemplifies the spirit of the Al Tauscher award on every level. She continues to be among the elite youth climbers in the Unites States.” In terms of community service, Tori volunteered with her team to support the Portland Marathon last fall. She plays an active leadership role on the team helping lead practices, and mentoring younger climbers outside of practice. Tori refers to her climbing team as family and she pursues her sport at the highest level, while at the same time giving back to the program and “family.” She is a person of true integrity and is considered talented, inspiring, giving and thoughtful by those around her.

Bass singer Jon Lee joined the Balladeers last year after attending an open rehearsal outside the Sports Pub. “I liked the guys. The group’s spirit of camaraderie, mischief and gently controlled chaos were obvious immediately,” said Lee, in answer to why he joined the 30-plus member ensemble. Lee hadn’t sung since grade school but enjoys “the feeling of singing with others. And, our repertoire offers great variety – some old, some modern, some familiar and some new. Others are fun. Some are inspiring and some are just sonically powerful.” And, he likes the Balladeers’ role. “The concerts we give at MAC and in the community deliver special joy to folks who truly appreciate it.” Lee said he’s “slowly” learning to read music (he did take piano lessons as a kid). “With any luck, I’m becoming a better singer ... at least in my private, self-delusional performance hall – the shower,” he said. Along with second-year director Scott Tuomi, head of choral music at Pacific

Activities Balladeers Continued from page 43 University, Lee would like to see the Balladeers grow. “It would be great to welcome more singers and to continue polishing and expanding our repertoire,” said the 58-year-old, who runs his own marketing and branding agency. Overall, Lee said his experience has been excellent! “Especially since it’s come with new friends in the bargain. Also, it’s fun to watch reactions of my old friends and family as they learn what I’ve been up to.” Male members interested in contributing to a moving musical experience should drop in on a Balladeers rehearsal at 7:15 p.m. on Thursdays in the third-floor Activities Classroom.

MAC Players Win Big at State Level M

AC handball players have been having a great late winter/early spring in various tournaments in the club and around the state, starting with Pete Greer’s C-class win in Eugene in late February. Numerous MAC handball players competed in the 2015 Oregon State Singles Tournament in Salem in March. Matt Steele took second in the Open class, in which 13 top-level players competed – seven of them from MAC. Josh Bateman won the Open consolation bracket and David Steinberg served notice with a Super Masters win in the 60 bracket, his first time to compete in that age group at the state level. Just prior to the state event, 24 MAC players competed in three brackets for the MAC Singles title. Aaron Garner won a tough tiebreaker match with Steele for the Open crown, with both players displaying amazing shots from all over the court. Seventeen-yearold Austin Biddle took the A crown with a tiebreaker win over longtime MAC stalwart Craig Trull. Frank Romanaggi won a fantastic marathon match, in yet another tiebreaker, against the indefatigable Daryl Zarozinski, who seems to have recovered fully from a torn Achilles. The consolation winners were Sean Steele in the Open, Jon Polonski in the A group, and Tony Heiting in the B group.

Winter Intramurals The winter intramurals, very ably directed by J.D. McLandrich, revealed a very tight, season-long Open class race between Conor

Casey and Andy Kangas, with Kangas eventually prevailing in a tie-breaker. Greg Marshall and Rudy Eissenger teamed up to win the Doubles. (Rudy’s shoulder paid the price after several weeks of intense competition – send best wishes for a full recovery). Craig Trull and Ron Shoquist won their respective A groups, while Mike Steele and Dean Duncan took the laurels in the B groups. The IM season was capped by a mini-tournament, with Kangas, Trull, and Duncan winning the different skill groups, Open, A and B respectively.

MAC Doubles Tournament Most recently, Conor Casey and Bob Herrera won the MAC Doubles crown over Matt Steele and Andy Kangas, with Sean Steele and Jarrad Kreuger taking the third spot in a very competitive bracket. Todd Zilbert and Greg Howell won the A class roundrobin without suffering a defeat, while Bob Evenson and Mike Steele had to go to a tie-breaker to win the B class title over Daryl Zarosinski and Mike Casey.

Men’s Conditioning Class is a Hit F

eel good for Father’s Day with MAC’s men’s conditioning class. The class honors Joe Loprinzi’s pioneering physical fitness legacy, but it is NOT your dad’s Joe Loprinzi class of calisthenics. The new Loprinzi Class offers a wide variety of exercises and movements designed to strengthen the core, condition the entire body and improve overall flexibility and balance. While exercises include traditional push-ups and sit ups, other movements are found in Pilates and Yoga. Each participant is encouraged to do their best effort, and alternatives are offered to adapt to each person’s physical condition and abilities during the 45-minute class. All equipment is provided in the studio: mat, hand weights and towels. Participants just need to find Studio Three and show up. The signature class exercise is the “plank,” either upright or on forearms. Newcomers generally start out holding the position for one or two minutes, while others have built up to three to five minutes and longer. Instructor Molly Sparkman is an enthusiastic energizer who knows how to keep members transitioning from one movement to the next. She often begins sessions by asking what members would like to emphasize. After coaxing, the replies range from “core” to “aerobic” to “balance” and the ever-popular “stretching.” The “Homer Special” is a popular stretch, a full body stretch while lying prone on the back. Molly leads class members on stairwell marches,

EATING WELL Guys love jerky, although it is expensive, and store-bought varieties often have added preservatives. You can also try it with boneless, skinless turkey breast for a lower fat alternative. Jerky is a cured meat product that is high in protein and it does not need refrigeration, so you can carry it with you when you are hiking or biking. Jerky is also very high in electrolytes, for example sodium, which is beneficial if you have done a strenuous activity and need to replenish electrolytes. But don’t forget to hydrate well after your activities, adequate water is also extremely important. –Tysen Christensen

jogs on the indoor track and lunges and wall-sits in the sub-basement hallway. As an added bonus, the class is accompanied by tunes supplied by resident musician Bob Howard, our “gung-ho” member, known as Bad Bob. Musical genres range from country western to rock and roll and contemporary. “The class makes it easier to follow a routine,” says member Bob Clay. “It has helped me to improve chronic lower back issues and improved my overall lifestyle for other activities and sports.” So join the camaraderie and get in on the stimulating conversation, humor and music. A good supervised sweat will do you wonders! Class is offered from 12:15-1 p.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays in Studio Three.

id you know that men experience andropause, a decline of testosterone levels with age that is the male equivalent to menopause? Most men don’t. Like menopause, an individual’s experience may vary from having few symptoms to experiencing noticeable negative effects. Symptoms of low testosterone can include loss of muscle tone, fatigue, low libido, erectile dysfunction, depression, mood swings, difficulty in concentration, hair loss, insomnia and infertility. Today, more and more men are seeking treatment for low testosterone. This is partially due to the decreasing stigma associated with talking about low testosterone and its corresponding symptoms. It could also be due to the plethora of advertisements promising increased vitality and virility with drug therapy. A simple blood test can detect low testosterone, and there are a variety of treatment options available. However, there is much debate on the effectiveness of testosterone replacement drugs. Although they may initially increase vitality, for many men, these exogenous testosterones do not have long-lasting positive effects. There are restrictions involved with application

Jerky Ingredients 3 pounds beef flank steak (can substitute with elk, venison, or turkey) ½ cup soy sauce 1/ 4 cup sesame oil 1/ 4 cup honey 1 tablespoon chili-garlic paste 3 teaspoons ground pepper 2 teaspoons powdered ginger Preparation 1. Pat meat dry with paper towels, set on two baking sheets, cover with plastic wrap and freeze for two hours until firm but not frozen solid. 2. Mix remaining ingredients in a large, zippered plastic bag. 3. Once the meat has cooled, slice into 1/4-inch thick pieces. Marinate overnight in the refrigerator.

of topical treatments, since women and children can get virilization with secondary exposure, and there are possible adverse reactions with taking testosterone, such as liver toxicity. There are many men who may exhibit low testosterone symptoms, but their blood work shows normal levels. In addition to total testosterone and free testosterone testing, I recommend other sex hormones, like estrogen. High estrogen levels can produce similar symptoms and it is more effective to decrease estrogen rather than trying to increase testosterone. I also recommend testing thyroid function if the other tests are normal but the symptoms continue. While hormone replacement may be a good option for many men, alternative treatments may be a viable and more appropriate option for others. And finally, as with any treatment, a balanced diet, normal blood sugar, and regular exercise are an excellent place to start. –Dr. Lindsey Nelson WM

4. When you are ready to dry the jerky, remove the meat from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature. 5. Preheat the oven to 175°F. It is important maintain the temperature, so use an oven thermometer. If you are having trouble maintaining the oven temperature, prop open the door an inch or two with a hot pad. 6.

Bragging Rights on the Line at Scramble Club members started to warm up their golf games in April when the Golf Committee kicked off the season with an indoor simulator center. Young and old enjoyed the opportunity to experience TruGolf E6 Simulator technology in the West Gym. Adults wondered aloud if we could get one for the club, while one junior asked if we could start demonstrations early so he could try the simulator before his swim meet. If you missed it and have questions, please talk with a member of the Golf Committee. Next up is the 2015 All-Committee Golf Scramble on Saturday, June 20.

Know Your Options with Water Hazards Knowing the rules of golf can help you make the best decisions when you encounter different situations on the course. For example, golf courses often are surrounded by two different types of water hazards: regular water hazards and lateral water hazards. When your ball finds a water hazard (marked with yellow lines), you have three options. The first option is to play the ball as it lies for no penalty. The second option is to return to


the place of your last shot under stroke and distance under a one-stroke penalty. If the ball was last on the teeing ground, it may be teed, if it was anywhere else on the course, it must be dropped. The third option is to identify the place where your ball last crossed the margin of the hazard, line up that point with the flag and go back as far as you would like (on a straight line) and drop the ball under a one-stroke penalty. When your ball finds a lateral water hazard (marked with red lines), you have five options, including the three listed above. Option No. 4 is to identify the place where your ball last crossed the margin of the lateral water hazard, take any club in your bag, and measure two club lengths away from the hazard from that spot. You may drop your ball within those two club lengths under a one-stroke penalty. Finally, the fifth option is to identify the place where your ball last crossed the margin of the hazard, and identify the location on the opposite side of the lateral water hazard that is equidistant from the flag, and measure two club lengths away from the hazard from that spot. You may drop your ball within those two club lengths under a one-stroke penalty. With multiple options, the game of golf requires some decision-making throughout your round, just to get your ball back into play. Please keep in mind that players are

Karate

Kids and Karate are a Perfect Match

Karate is a fun way for both boys and girls to achieve fitness and focus. It helps teach self-discipline, respect for others and focus. In fact, many parents whose children have attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder report great success with karate because self-control and concentration are exactly the skills underdeveloped in ADHD kids. A typical class begins and ends with a bow to the teacher, or sensei. After a warm-up, students practice the art’s particular skills, which include kicks, punches and blocks. Each quick, sharp movement requires concentration and strict attention. Progress is marked

Karate is a great way for school-age children to learn discipline. by a belt system, which takes the beginner from a white belt through a variety of colors until black. Testing for each new level, generally every three months, is a good exercise in setting and achieving goals. As a student learns more and gains confidence, they have the option of participating in tournaments. This is a great place to showcase

their competence and compete against others with the same skill level. These events also boost socialization skills and increase selfesteem. The biggest benefit kids learn is respect, which often carries over into school, helping to improve behavior and even grades. Children as young as 6 years old may start classes. By that time, a child usually has enough muscle control to punch and turn properly and safely – essential to getting a real kick out of karate. If you are interested in learning more about karate at MAC and how it can benefit your child, please read our student handbook on the MAC website, join the MAC Karate group on Facebook, or contact Will Cath at wcath@themac.com. Visitors are welcome to watch classes at 5:15 p.m. or 6:15 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays. –Tim Taylor

If aging is such a factor of chronic pain, why do fewer individuals over the age of 65 complain of the symptoms? Because the older adult has learned to “just deal with it” and assumes that this state is normal, and “comes with age.” Pain isn’t normal. Pain is your body’s attempt at saying, “Notice me and fix it please!” MELT, taught by Sandy McQueen over the past three years, is a self-treatment technique that targets the body’s connective tissue and restores the fluid system that keeps the body stable and balanced. The MELT method uses small balls and soft foam rollers as tools

Rock Climbing

Regional Champs for Climbers Member of the MAC climbing team flew or drove 800 miles to reach regional championships at The Spire Climbing Center in Bozeman, Montana in May. On the day of the competition, each athlete was required to wait in an isolated area where they would be unable to see their other competitors climb or receive any advice from parents or coaches. They would, as a group, be given five minutes to preview the three routes they would be climbing before returning to isolation and then, one by one, they would be escorted into the climbing area, where they were sat in a chair with their back to the first route to be attempted. They would wait four minutes while the competitor in front of them climbed the route, and then would have four minutes to climb themselves, repeating this cycle until they have completed all three climbs. Sound touch? Sure, but MAC climbers were up to the challenge. The team took another step in solidifying itself as one of the best programs in the country, winning its fifth straight Sport and Speed Regional Climbing. Climbers

USTA 18-plus League Sends Teams to Playoffs MAC supports several USTA leagues. One of the most popular leagues is the adult 18-and-over league. It runs through the winter and spring. The club graciously hosts playoff matches, during which teams vie for top slots to qualify for sectional playoffs and a chance to advance to national competition. In April, MAC sent four teams to the playoffs: 3.5 Women with captain Melissa Crawford; 3.0 women with co-captains Dana Baioni and Nicolle Lochner; and 4.0 Women with captain Lori Bernhardt. The Bernhardts are a true tennis family, as husband Darryl Bernhardt’s 3.5 men’s team also made the playoffs. The 2.5 women, captained by Melanie Morris, finished third in the lineups and were excited to be part of the playoff competition. The playoffs took place after The Winged M went to press. The tennis community sends congratulations to its teams.

Be part of Portland’s greatest tradition – the Grand Floral Parade. Walk the parade route with MAC walkers and hikers Saturday, June 6, in MAC’s annual pre-parade walk through Northwest Portland and across the Steel Bridge. View the floats at Veterans Memorial Coliseum, then strut or saunter your parade-day self down the spectator-lined parade route on the return to MAC. The fun starts at 7 a.m. when walkers gather in the MAC lobby for the two-mile walk to the coliseum to see the floats as they receive their final touches before the parade begins at 10 a.m. Once there, the MAC crowd tends to disperse: some walk back to MAC via the parade route, others turn around and retrace their steps, and others take MAX back. Walking back to MAC on the route itself, says past walk leader Todd Husband, is “the most interesting” part of the day. Clowns, vendors, spectators, and kids playing in the car-free streets make the return trip a Portland experience not to be missed. Members, guests, friends and family are welcome. There is no charge, and no need to preregister; just show up. The full route is about 6 miles, 2 miles to the coliseum and 4 miles along the parade route. Bring water and snacks and wear or carry something eye-catching as you wave and smile at the parade-watchers. –Dee Poujade

Finding Self-Awareness Through the Body Conversations about developing selfawareness are usually focused on nonphysical aspects of the self, the mind, the emotions, the personality and so on. But many people, including myself, have accessed profound revelations of self-awareness through the body. The body is the self, too. In yoga philosophy, the body is perceived, like all things in the universe, as a manifestation of universal energy. Like a memory, a sound, a drop of water or a mountain, the body is understood to be pure consciousness vibrating at the exact frequency to elicit its specific density, and to Continued on page 72

Alison Alstrom leads a five-week yoga series perfect for beginners.

june 2015

Our muscles give us our shape. They are the part of us that translate who we are to the world, even to ourselves, in the language of the senses. Other people are able to be aware of us in an immediate way because of our physical presence. And in the pulsing, reflective manner of the universe, this is true for awareness of ourselves as well. Did you ever hear of The Invisible Man? Not the Ralph Ellison one. It was also a book by H.G. Wells, and what I remember is the television adaptation from the ’70s. The hero was a scientist experimenting with invisibility who accidentally turned the formula on himself. The show opened with him painstakingly cloaking himself from the ground up: socks, long pants and sleeves, shoes and gloves. He had to have some kind of material covering, some kind of substantial outer layer in order to appear to


Athletics the world, and to himself. The most powerful moment of the sequence was when he wrapped his face in bandages, effectively assuming the identity of someone terribly wounded, maybe burned, or marred in some way. This was a vivid image for me as a child because I could relate. I think we can all relate to the experience of feeling unable to show our self to the world, unable to see our self accurately reflected back in the faces of the people around us. It is the feeling of invisibility, and it hurts.

Embodiment is a gift. Developing self-awareness is one way we show appreciation for that gift.

Enjoy your Party!

Developing self-awareness is the secret life of developing awareness of your body. Awareness of your body comes from using it, moving it, feeling it, and paying attention to it. In the yoga asanas, or postures, we wrap our muscles around our bones to heal the wounds of invisibility from the inside. In this way, getting stronger can be an act of self-love.

Developing self-awareness

 In all yoga poses, awareness is key. In the method of yoga that I practice and teach, the awareness exercises we do with our mind, moving ever outward from the inner experience to the very edges of our physical form, are met with the awareness faculties of the body, moving inward from the edges. With conscious practice of yoga poses, you can use the developing strength of your muscles to enhance yourself awareness on a deeper level. How do we do it? We soften, and then we draw in. We engage our muscles. We get stronger, fortify our interface, and stimulate the sense awareness of our embodied selves that is our gift.

History at MAC Archivist George Vogt came to MAC in 2011 to help bring order to the vast array of artifacts and documents associated with the club. He writes an occasional column for The Winged M. Vogt is in the midst of helping to plan for the club’s 125th anniversary celebration, and this month, he’s asking for members’ help in finding unique and rare club items.

MAC History Needs Your Help W e are on the hunt for MAC history treasures as we prepare an exhibit for the MAC’s 125th anniversary in 2016. Here’s what we’d like to borrow and copy:

• Early issues of the Winged M Chat (190708) and The Winged M (1914 through 1918). We have a complete run from 1919 to present. • Motion-picture films, especially early ones, of events on Multnomah Field or at the George Vogt clubhouse, e.g., early sports, Rose Festival Archivist preparations in the stadium, and social and athletic events in the 1900 or 1912 clubhouse, showing the interiors. Videos of more contemporary activities are welcome, too. • Memorabilia, photos, and film of the Multnomah Golf Club (1925-1935), which became the Raleigh Hills residential area.

78 | The Wınged M |

Month 2015

At present, the MAC holds only a few photos and memorabilia items from the course.

• Items and garments with the MAC winged M logo or having a known identification with prominent club athletes. These may include commemorative silver, glassware, watch fobs and jewelry, team jerseys, sports equipment, and early trophies (1891 to 1930). • Motion pictures or videos, of MAC community outreach activities, ski trips, hikes, MAC foreign travel, or other outings that you feel might be visually interesting in a historical exhibit about MAC. • Committee records and minutes. Most board minutes do not have committee reports attached. In particular, we’d like to find records of the Facilities Committee for the periods of facilities planning and construction. If you have any such items and are willing to lend them for copying or exhibit, please contact George Vogt at gvogt@themac.com or 503-517-2320. WM
