Neither Morningstar nor its content providers are responsible for any damages or losses arising from any use of this information. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. For each fund with at least a three-year history, Morningstar calculates a Morningstar RatingTM based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for variation in a fund’s monthly performance (including the effects of sales charges, loads, and redemption fees), placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The top 10% of funds in each category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars, and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. (Each share class is counted as a fraction of one fund within this scale and rated separately, which may cause slight variations in the distribution percentages.) The Becker Value Equity Fund received a ★★★★★ Overall Morningstar Rating as of 3/31/14 out of 1,068 Large Cap Value Funds. The Fund had the following rating for the 3-year period: ★★★★ out of 1,068 Large Cap Value Funds, ★★★★ for the 5-year period out of 951 Large Cap Value Funds, and ★★★★★ for the 10-year period out of 626 Large Cap Value Funds. Morningstar Rankings represent a fund’s total-return percentile rank relative to all funds that have the same Morningstar Category. The highest percentile rank is 1 and the lowest is 100. It is based on Morningstar total return, which includes both income and capital gains or losses and is not adjusted for sales charges or redemption fees. Mutual Fund investing involves risk. Principal loss is possible. Small and mid capitalization companies tend to have limited liquidity and greater price volatility than large-capitalization companies. The Fund invests in foreign securities through ADRs which may involve political, economic and currency risks, greater volatility and differences in accounting methods. The value of the Fund’s investments in REITs may change in response to changes in the real estate market.

am mildly amused when friends ask me if the position of MAC President is a paid job. The answer is no. Certainly there are perks: a reserved parking spot tops the list. But serving on the MAC Board of Trustees is purely Henderson a volunteer position Darcy president – one that requires a time commitment of varying degrees over the course of three years, usually following prior service on several MAC committees. Despite my passion for the club and my nine-year involvement in the committee system, I felt rather sheepish when I told my sister that I had been elected MAC president. I said, “I know I’m not helping blind people read like Mom did, or preserving estuaries like you.” My sister responded fiercely, “What you are doing is every bit as valuable. You are helping MAC thrive. MAC helps its members stay physically, mentally and socially fit, so that they can make connections and contributions that benefit the entire community.” I feel pretty confident in confirming my sister’s assertion that something every MAC member has in common is the desire to remain “fit.” Fitness can take many different forms – physical, mental, social, emotional. MAC offers plenty of ways to get fit for every age, ability and interest. We have gyms, pools, fitness classes, rock walls, competitive sports and so on. You can play bridge, attend lectures, build your business network, go to parties, socialize in the restaurants … you get the picture. Often overlooked is the role volunteerism plays in lifelong fitness. A growing body of research indicates that volunteering provides individual health benefits in addition to social benefits. This research has established a strong relationship between volunteering and health: those who volunteer have lower mortality rates, greater functional ability, and lower rates of depression than those who do not volunteer. Volunteerism contributes to the “fitness” of the community and society as a whole and inspires friends and children to follow suit. Whether supporting the arts, protecting the environment, donating blood or preserving human rights, the effort of each volunteer benefits all of us in one way or another. A large segment of the MAC population volunteers in some capacity, whether at the
club or in the community at large. MAC itself offers plenty of opportunities for members to donate their time in whatever way appeals to them. Over 600 committee members shepherd and support the club’s facilities, finances, and athletic and social programs. For those who want to serve the club in addition to or instead of a committee, MACorps always needs volunteers to help at any number of individual events and activities, from filling plastic eggs in preparation for the annual Children’s Easter Egg Hunt to signing up donors for blood drives. Every January, members join the club’s Goose Hollow neighborhood cleanup. Volunteers will be put to work later this month at the MAC Mile event, and again at the Street Fair in June. There are many opportunities at the club for juniors to fulfill their school’s service requirements. And I guarantee that everyone who volunteers at MAC receives the additional benefits of meeting other members, becoming more connected to the MAC community, and having fun! Club members can also feel proud of the work Multnomah Athletic Foundation performs. Through the dedication of 20 or so board members, the Foundation provides grants and volunteer assistance to organizations that encourage athletic participation for Portland’s youth. Many organizations the Foundation supports bring sports into the lives of underserved or disabled children, such as giving homeless kids a wellness plan and the opportunity to play soccer, or providing special needs youth with therapeutic equestrian riding. This month, the club thanks and celebrates committee volunteers at the annual All-Committee Dinner; the thanks are welldeserved. MAC’s tradition of excellence is due in large part to members who donate their time, expertise and passion to ensuring the fitness, vitality and future of the club.
Grassroots table tennis effort A few years ago, a small group of passionate table tennis players (“ping-pong” to the uninitiated) banded together in a grassroots effort to create an organized table tennis group for all ages and abilities. Their volunteer efforts have resulted in regular, well-attended open play times and occasional special events. Join the fun on Wednesday, May 14 at 6:30 p.m. for an exhibition by world-renowned ping-pong entertainer Scott Preiss, known as the “Harlem Globetrotter of Table Tennis.” Additional details can be found on page 63.

t’s all about the numbers! Around my wife Valerie’s birthday, I asked her if there was anything she wanted to enjoy her celebration. In one nanosecond, she responded that she wanted sun! I decided to search the Internet Norm Rich for one of our favorite General Manager activities at vacation time. Her birthday is in early January, and I found a week when cruises were relatively inexpensive. So I booked a ship on which I was interested in traveling. It is the biggest cruise ship in the world. I could not figure out why it was so well priced until a few days before leaving. It seems the cruise started on Super Bowl Sunday. I immediately realized why it was such a bargain. Apparently Super Bowl Sunday is a soft spot for cruise lines. It didn’t matter to me – I figured I could watch the game as we were sailing toward the Caribbean. We did watch most of the game, but because the broadcast was international, we missed the commercials. Not so bad. I saved hundreds of dollars on the cruise and was not wowed into buying something I don’t need by the advertising industry’s creative geniuses. It’s all about the numbers, I told myself. Payback struck the next day in the Bahamas, when Valerie found some trinkets she thought would make our cruise more memorable. It’s all about the numbers! Speaking about the numbers, the largest cruise ship in the world sailed with 6,500plus passengers and a staff of over 2,000. It weighed 250,000 tons, was four football fields long and 154 feet wide. The ship stood 17 stories above water and cruised at 22 knots. We traveled with lifelong friends we seldom see. Jim is in the hospitality business, and we marveled at how the ship could load all its cargo to feed and pamper 6,500 passengers in a few hours, as well as all the baggage the passengers brought with them. Earlier that morning, the ship had unloaded 6,500 passengers from the previous cruise. At the end of the cruise, we were emailed a survey by the cruise line asking us how they had done. We told them the good, the bad and the ugly. It really is all about the satisfaction scores of the passengers. It’s all about the numbers! I was fascinated to learn the cruise line is introducing a slightly smaller ship later this year in an effort to ensure existing space is used to full potential, meaning ships don’t sit
empty as often. It costs a billion dollars to build a ship like the one we took; it makes sense to utilize such an asset to its full value or spend less to gain more. It’s all about the numbers! Speaking of numbers, MAC is diverse, with a large membership and 610,000 square feet of space in our clubhouse. Additionally, the club owns three large parcels of property that committees and staff are reviewing to gauge appropriate opportunities for future development. Members and management are committed to not add to the membership when considering future development. Instead, we are trying to meet the current needs of our membership. Statistics show that members are using our facilities more today than in the past. In the last few years, we have exhausted all other opportunities for parking solutions and have agreed that partnering with a developer to trade land for parking makes the most sense. If we were to build MAC today, we would be required by code to have more than 1,800 parking spaces rather than the 533 we have today. If you’d like to learn more about our plans for more parking, visit the Block 7 page on theMAC. com. It’s all about the numbers! Our senior directors and managers are often reminded it is all about the numbers. In April, the Athletics Excellence subcommittee and the Athletic Committee asked for your input about coaching, management and facilities, and how we are doing so as to enhance your sporting experience. We will report the results back through the sport committees, Athletic Committee and through the June Winged M. It’s all about the numbers!
Lottery While we’re talking numbers, MAC adheres to a self-imposed cap of about 17,158 resident members and demand for membership remains high. This month, we begin the application process for a membership lottery, which gives your friends and relatives the chance to apply to become a member. Learn more about the streamlined application process in this issue and show prospective members why MAC is a great club – for friends, for family, for life.

ay is National and Oregon Water Safety Month. Please join us for our Third Annual Water Safety Family Fridays at 6 p.m. on May 2 in both the Main Gym and the West Pool. In aquatics, our ultimate goal is to Lisa Virtue provide opportuniaquatics manager ties for members of all ages to enjoy safe aquatic experiences in recreation, competition and lifelong fitness. As you can imagine, it requires a lot of juggling and balance to accommodate a variety of members’ needs and desires. Aquatics staff show off their juggling skills daily. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your understanding, patience and cooperation as we tend to this balancing act. I feel very blessed to work in such a supportive and educated club and also to have wonderful staff working in the Aquatics Department. All of us are passionate about the work we do, whether it is outreach regarding water safety and drowning prevention (see page 46 for water safety tips and an overview of all aquatics offers) or helping athletes achieve excellence in their water sport of choice. We understand that the pools provide members with a much-needed venue for safety training, fun and fitness. We can’t wait to see you soon at the pools! Here are a few reminders to help you have the best experience possible when coming to enjoy the pools: • Please check the pool schedules prior to coming to swim. They are posted online at: www.themac.com/group/pages/poolrules. • Sign up online in your member profile to receive weekly emails regarding temporary schedule changes: “Aquatics – Lap Swim Availability.” • Please take a shower immediately before entering the pool. This helps reduce the amount of chlorine automatically pumped into the pools and is better for your hair and skin. • The 50-meter Pool undergoes renovations this year and is closed from approximately Saturday, June 14 through mid-October. Thank you so much for your understanding in advance for the limited lap swim availability during that time. We are looking forward to the beautiful remodel! WM

It’s Salmon for Supper T
he first salmon run of the season is coming up this month. Always serving the best seasonal ingredients, MAC is excited to receive the highest quality salmon the Northwest has to offer. To celebrate the salmon run, Executive Chef Philippe Boulot highlights wild Chinook salmon for the May Supper Club from 5-9 p.m. Saturday, May 17, along with seasonal salmon dishes the entire month of May. Chef Boulot is also an avid fisherman and takes pride in the salmon he uses. The two most popular Oregon salmons are the Chinook and Coho. The Chinook, also known as King Salmon, are the largest of the Pacific species and also the most highly sought after. They spend anywhere from one to eight years at sea before returning their stream to spawn and adults are often around 40 pounds. Coho Salmon, otherwise known as Silver Salmon, get their name from their silvery sides and silver plate on the tail. To make reservations for the Wild Chinook Supper Club event, call 503-517-6629. WM

Executive Chef Philippe Boulot and French Master Baker Dominique Geulin celebrate the cuisine of Northern France and pay tribute to the 70th anniversary of D-Day with a Normandy dinner at MAC on Friday, June 6 at 6 p.m. Boulot and Geulin are natives of Normandy, a region whose culinary scene reflects its wealth of farms and orchards, and 400-mile coastline. The pair prepares a three-course menu that pays homage to Normandy’s culinary traditions, including a crepe station, housemade pork pate, mussels and chanterelle salad, braised pork cheeks, tart flambee, and of course, Geulin’s succulent desserts. France has honored Boulot on numerous occasions, most recently naming him Officer in the National Order of Agricultural Merit. He is the only Northwest Chef to receive the honor, and was also named the James Beard Best Chef in the Pacific Northwest in 2001. Geulin, owner of Portland’s St. Honore Boulangerie, received the Meilleur Ouvrier de France honor in 1990 and was recently awarded the Vigneron d’Honneur for this philanthropy in support of nonprofit activities in Portland’s French-American community. The meal takes place at MAC. Reservations cost $55 per person for food and gratuity. A no-host bar is available. Quick Register FB428 WM

For Friends.For Family.For Life. OC TO B E R 14 , 2014 Early Bird Entry Deadline is Tuesday, July 15. Final Entry Deadline is Friday, September 26.
T
he application period for the 2014 MAC Lottery begins Thursday, May 1, and this year, the club has streamlined the process to apply. Since the Lottery merely creates a wait list to apply for MAC membership, a proposer and prospect simply submit an entry form instead of a full membership application. Only those selected in the lottery on Tuesday, Oct. 14 will be asked to complete an application after the draw.
Easy for proposers Because MAC is a not-for-profit club, a member must propose each lottery entrant. Both electronic and paper entry forms are available to make it easy. To use the electronic form, go to www.MACLottery2014.com and click on the link to propose an entrant. Fill in the entrants’ names and email addresses. Then check a of box to verify that you are a member in good standing for at least one year, and that you have known the prospective individual or couple well for at least three years. MAC

May 2014
will email the entry form to the prospect to complete the process. After you and the entrant fill out the document, print and submit it to MAC with a check for the $65 entry fee. To make it even easier, check the box to have the fee charged to your account. There are also hard copies of forms available from Member Services.
Easy for entrants The entry form is simplified for prospective members. After selecting which lottery category they wish to enter, they provide names, birthdates and basic information for each person listed on the form. The proposer information is already provided, and no references are needed at this time. Other than the $65 entry fee, no additional financial commitment is due until election. The deadline for entries is 6 p.m., Friday, Sept. 26. Those drawn in the lottery in October will be asked to submit a full membership application by Monday, Nov. 24. The process requires the names of three references, and family
applicants must provide a valid certificate of marriage, civil union or Oregon Domestic Partnership. An initiation fee deposit of $1,800 for individual and $3,600 for family applicants is then due to complete the process and secure a position on the lottery wait list.
Easy for younger entrants To meet one of the club’s strategic goals to attract and retain younger members, the 2014 Lottery has two separate draw categories for entrants younger than 35. We will draw 80 individuals and 60 families ages 21 through 34. Tickets for anyone entered that are not drawn in these age categories will be put into the appropriate lottery drawing for remaining membership slots. We waive the administrative fee for initiation fee payment plans for entrants younger than 34 that are drawn. That means that after the initial initiation fee deposit, they may opt for a two- or five-year contract to pay the balance after election to membership sometime in the next three years. In addition to dues,
monthly payment on a five-year option is only $62 for an individual and $120 for a family. Initiation fees, effective January 1, 2015, are $5,500 for individual and $11,000 for family memberships.
Easy to show off the club We offer three easy ways for you to share the club with friends and family who want to “kick the tires” before entering the lottery. Request free athletic guest passes from Member Services to introduce an individual or family to use the athletic facilities with you. The daily guest fee is waived, but you must accompany your guests at all times and follow all other guest policies. There will be no athletic guest fees for Family Fridays in May and September. This is a chance to bring families to one of MAC’s most popular activities. You must stay with them for
the evening, which gives you an opportunity to share the fun and also answer questions about MAC membership. Invite guests to Lottery Open House events from 6-8 p.m. Tuesday, May 13 and Tuesday, June 10 to learn more about membership, tour the club, and enjoy hors d’ oeuvres, wine and beer. The events are free of charge for you and your guests, but space is limited and preregistration is required. Complimentary child care is available by reservation. Quick Register ME001 SP14 (May 13) Quick Register ME002 SU14 (June 10)
Easy to get extra lottery chances Entrants automatically get one ticket in the drawing but may qualify for additional chances. Entries submitted by the early bird
deadline at 6 p.m. Tuesday, July 15 receive one extra. Entrants who entered any prior lotteries without being drawn qualify for an additional chance, but not one per lottery. And entrants between the ages of 35 and 45 receive an extra ticket. On a family entry, the age of the older adult determines qualification.
Easy to get information MAC continues to enjoy a demand for memberships that exceeds the number of openings available. The number of resident members ages seven and older is limited to 17,157, and the new members from the lottery are elected only as membership vacancies occur. While the lottery adds members to the wait list, it does not increase total club membership. More information about the 2014 Lottery is available on www.MACLottery2014.com. Read answers to the most frequently asked questions, or direct specific inquiries to the Membership department at Lottery@themac. com or 503-517-7280. WM

In Memoriam Dr. Katherine Rebecca Hill Chavigny March 9, 1929-Nov. 19, 2013 Dr. Katherine Chavigny died peacefully in her home in Portland on Nov. 19, 2013 after a four-year struggle with cancer. Katherine was born in Manchester, England, and trained as a nurse. She traveled to the United States in 1950 and married Dr. Charles Chavigny in 1953. They moved to Portland in 1956. Widowed in 1966, Katherine went on to get her bachelor’s degree at Portland State University, her Master of Public Health degree at the Oregon Health Sciences Center, and her Ph.D in Epidemiology and Biostatistics from the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. She founded the Public Health Department at Portland State University and often lectured at the Centers for Disease Control. In 1984, she moved to Chicago to work at the American Medical Association. She acted as the liaison between nurses and the doctors nationally. In 1996 she moved back to Portland. In retirement she worked for the China board of nurses for advanced education. She also worked and achieved a degree in computer technology and web design from Portland Community College. Katherine was a member of Kesser Israel Synagogue, and was a beloved mother, grandmother and friend. She is survived by her four children, Kate, Charles, John and Margaret, and her beloved grandchildren, Naomi, Arkasha and Cooper.
William Richard Cooley Feb. 5, 1948-Feb. 22, 2014 Senior family member William Richard Cooley died Feb. 22 from complications during heart surgery. He was 66. Dick was born the third of four children to William Jasper and Elsie Anabel (Calderwood) Cooley in mid-Multnomah County. He attended North Powellhurst grade school, Cherry Park Elementary School, and graduated from David Douglas High School, where he was active in sports and the arts, traveled abroad to Thailand, and was student body president. Dick attended Harvard University from 1966 to 1968, and returned home to complete his bachelor’s degree at the University of Oregon. Dick enjoyed his years after college, taking night classes to earn his J.D. at Lewis & Clark College, and spending time camping,
waterskiing, hiking and generally having fun with a close-knit group of friends. He married Kari Carsey in 1980, and they had two children, Alex in 1982 and Sarah in 1984. The pair later divorced, and in 1994, Dick met his wife, Leslie Howell, through close mutual friends. Dick and Leslie married in 1998. As a young man, Dick worked for Cooley Construction, his father’s homebuilding business, which inspired a lifelong career in real estate development. He left the family business for a number of years, working for United Homes and Pacific Development, and later returned to run his family’s real estate investment company. His passion for community led him to serve on the Portland Homebuilders Board, the Multnomah County Planning Commission, the Portland Planning Commission (where he served as chair), and most recently, as chair of the Portland Streetcar Board. Because of his strong leadership skills and his passion for mid-county, where he grew up, Dick was asked to chair committees for the siting of the city’s Eastside Community Center and to lead the Gateway Urban Renewal Area Program Advisory Committee. He was a quiet leader who spent countless hours on the causes about which he cared. Dick and his family were longtime supporters of SnowCap Community Charities, where his father helped develop its current building and where Dick was recently instrumental in gaining funding to expand the space. He and Leslie volunteered onsite regularly. In recent years, the couple traveled to both Vietnam and Nepal to assist a dental team in providing services to children. Dick had a full and rich life of family, community, music, the arts and travel. He was smart, compassionate and hardworking. A man who loved to help solve problems, Dick was beloved for his curiosity and imagination. Dick is survived by his wife, Leslie Anne Howell; children, Alexander Holms Cooley of Portland and Sarah Cooley Trinkle (Alan) of Boston; siblings, Patricia Cooley Whiteford (Michael) of Portland, Janet Cooley McChesney (Jim) of Clackamas and Douglas Lloyd Cooley (Mel) of Portland; and beloved dog, Sasha.

Peter M. Heitkemper Nov. 24, 1932-Feb. 28, 2014 Senior family preferred member Peter McClory Heitkemper died Feb. 28 of natural causes. He was 81.
Peter was born Nov. 24, 1932, in Portland, to Allard and Margaret Heitkemper. Peter grew up with Marcia Tamiesie, as the two families were great friends, and they married in 1956. Peter attended Cathedral and Columbia Prep and graduated from Georgetown University. He served as a captain in the U.S. Marine Corps. He was a retired lumber broker and a devout Catholic, attending daily mass and serving as a minister to the sick. Peter was passionate about the outdoors, a member of the Mazama Club, and took great pleasure in planning the annual cousins mountain climbing summer adventure. He was an active member of MAC, enjoying his MAC friends as much as his daily workouts. Peter is survived by his wife, Marcia; children, Tory Shoff, Mark Shoff, Heidi and Jim Wilcox, Peter Jr. and Mary Heitkmper; grandchildren, Michael, Sara, Terese, Matthew, Jimmy, Annie, Katie, Maddie and Peter III; and loving granddogs, Molly, Star and Hudson.

Susan Muncy (Morris) Holman May 30, 1934-Feb. 17, 2014 Senior family preferred member Susan Muncy (Morris) Holman died Feb. 17. She was 79. Susan was born May 30, 1934, in Portland, to Robert T. Morris Jr. and Margaret Morris. She attended Ainsworth Elementary School, Catlin Gabel and Lincoln High School in Portland. Sue then attended and received her bachelor’s degree from the University of Oregon, where she was also a member of the Kappa Alpha Theta Sorority. During her senior year at Oregon in 1955, she met Donald R. Holman, a law student recently returned from naval service. Sue’s smile would light up a whole room, as it did for Don when they first met at Max’s Tavern just off campus. Don and Sue were married Aug. 31, 1956, in Trinity Chapel in Portland. They remained best friends and lovers throughout their 57 years of marriage. Sue loved flowers and flower arranging. She was a judge emeritus of the Garden Club of America and an honored member of the Portland Garden Club. For many years, she and three close friends arranged flowers for weddings and special events under the name Gathering Moss. She was an active member of the community and enjoyed time with many different friends at the Portland Town Club and MAC. Sue and Don took great pleasure in traveling the world in their later years.

June 21, 1926-Feb. 22, 2014 Honorary life member June (Mersereau) Lee passed away peacefully Feb. 22, 2014, in Portland, the city where she spent most of her life. June was the daughter of Eugene and Lucille Mersereau, and the younger sister of Roland and John, two brothers she adored immensely. June graduated from Riverdale grade school and Catlin Gabel High School before heading east to Smith College for two years. After Smith, she returned to the West Coast where she attended Stanford University, graduating in 1948. The following year, June met Sam Lee, a Stanford alum, who proposed to her just 10 days after their first date. They were married for 62 years. Like her husband, June was a talented athlete. They both shared a love for racquet sports. She won the Pacific Coast squash championship three times, the Oregon state badminton championship and was an Oregon state women’s doubles and Canadian national women’s doubles tennis champion. With all these accolades, June remained, throughout her life, a modest and pleasantly humble person. June loved to garden, play bridge and talk politics, and cherished her lunch dates with family and friends. We will miss June’s wit, dry sense of humor and wonderful Mersereau vocabulary. She is survived by her daughters, Elizabeth Lee and Jane Lee; son, Hal Lee, and daughter-in-law, Susan Bishop; and loving grandchildren, Rachael and Clay Knope and Sam and Rose Lee. Donations may be made to the charity of your choice.
James D. Manning, Ph.D May 29, 1931-Jan. 09, 2014 Nonresident family member James D. Manning, Ph.D passed away in his Arizona home, early in the morning of Jan. 9, 2014. His community consists of friends, old and new, students he taught and advised through the years, colleagues, many of whom are no longer with us, and neighbors at Macadam Bay Floating Home Moorage where he and his wife, Lori, made their Portland home for the last 20 years. Jim was a U.S. Air Force Korean War veteran, where he spent most of his tour in the front lines of battle. Upon returning home, with the benefits from the GI Bill, several academic scholarships and working two and sometimes three part-time jobs a day, Jim earned a bachelor’s degree from the University of Oregon (1957); a Master of Science and an M.B.A. from New York University (1958); and a Ph.D. of Business Administration from the University of Washington (1967). His academic honors are too numerous to list. Jim taught at Portland State University for 31 years. During this time he was actively involved in the Oregon, United States and international business communities. He was a consultant to more than 50 firms and served as director in a variety of public and private boards. Through his interaction with the Portland business community, he was offered numerous opportunities for more lucrative positions in the private sector. However, Jim believed that the opportunity to teach and inspire others to learn, grow and reach their fullest potential was a calling and privilege of the highest order and, without a moment of waiver, continued the teaching career that he loved. In 1984, Jim received the International Firm of the Year Award from then Governor Vic Atiyeh, a first and only time recognition for an academic. He served four terms as a U. S. presidential appointee on the District Expansion Council. In 1984, he became the founding director of the International Trade Institute at Portland State University while continuing to stay “hands on” in the classroom, and advising and counseling students, particularly those who had chosen a career path in international business. As director of the International Trade Institute, Jim led several trade missions to China and Korea. He also negotiated international trade agreements for Portland firms that were seeking to expand their markets into the international arena. In one of his many interviews with the local media Jim said, “It is not treaties that bond nations together; it is commerce and joint benefit.” Jim is survived by his wife of 38 years, Loreli (Lori); children, Marcia Martin, Sandra Manning, Dr. David Bangsberg and Keld
ADMINISTRATIVE Bangsberg; grandchildren; brother, William Manning; and an extended family that reaches to all four corners of the United States. He was preceded in death by his daughter, Suzie; and lifetime friend, Dr. William T. Schantz. A memorial fund in Jim’s name has been established. Please send tax deductible donations to Massachusetts General Hospital Center for Global Health, secure.massgeneral. org/global-health, with Dr. James Manning Memorial Fund in the tribute line. Your gift will support the Sustainable Household Income Project, which provides rural Ugandan families with micro-enterprise training to lift themselves out of poverty.
Rosalyn M. Petersen Feb. 10, 1936-Feb. 18, 2014 Senior family preferred member Rosalyn M. Petersen, or Rose, as she was called by her students, friends and family, died peacefully on Feb. 18 in the arms of her loving husband, Don, and surrounded by family. She fought the good fight for 13 years after being diagnosed with lymphoma, but in the end, was no longer able to combat the disease. She was 78. Rose was born Rosalyn Mavis Lee in Lodi, Wis., the eldest daughter of Russell and Lela Lee, who farmed near Madison, Wis. The foundation of Rose’s passion for the earth, her work ethic and dogged determination were set by this early experience. She was an A student and put herself through college by working summers and after classes during the school year. Rose was the only one of six children to graduate from college, earning a B.S. from the University of Wisconsin, Stevens Point in secondary education, with an emphasis on early childhood. She was not only talented, but beautiful, inside and out, serving in 1957 as her alma mater’s homecoming queen and the TKE Fraternity Sweetheart. Married to Don in 1959, Rose taught high school home economics for two years in East Troy, Wis., while Don finished his university studies. They then began their great adventure together. Rose worked as a hospital dietitian in Milwaukee, Don as a banker. A job change took them to Seattle for eight years, where their children were born, and then on to their present home in Portland. Time filled quickly while pursuing their individual professions, raising two active children, community activities and immersing themselves in the Pacific Northwest’s natural splendor. They traveled extensively both in the United States and abroad. Many traditions were established... the family Easter egg hunts, Thanksgiving dinners (no one could stuff and cook a turkey like Rose), Christmas morning omelets with Danish abelskivers, birthday hikes and, when Continued on page 24 May 2014

Continued from page 23 the kids were small, Sunday night TV with “black cows” and hot buttered popped corn. A lifelong educator, Rose taught adult classes and high school. Her passion, however, was early childhood education. She started and operated early childhood programs at the Oregon Health Sciences University (Hill Learning Center), in Beaverton (Davis Learning Center), in Astoria (Astoria Learning Center) and for corporate employees at Sequent, now an IBM subsidiary (Sequent Learning Center). Rose was many things to many people – teacher, wife, mother, grandmother, friend, benefactor, advisor and counselor. She didn’t care who you were or what you were. If you shared her passion for education, conservation and family, she was your friend. She exuded grace and acceptance. She was generous to people and causes she admired. To her grandchildren, she was their friend, confidant, advisor and teacher. Many memories were made with Rose and her grandchildren cooking, reading books, picking berries together and asking lots of those “What if...?” questions. To her husband, Don, she was that and more. Over time, Rose and Don’s love grew as they each acknowledged the other’s strengths and valued more each day the richness of their relationship. They cultivated a strong and lasting bond of love, respect and trust. Rose admired the lifestyle of the Native American people because of their care of the earth and things on it. Her interests here guided her to the Lelooska family in Ariel, Wash., where she became a personal friend of Chief Lelooska and then served on the Lelooska Foundation Board until her death. Rose loved putting her hands into the earth and watching nature’s miracles spring forth. A lifelong Christian, the outdoors were her cathedral. Rose is survived by her husband of 54 years, Don; son, Bryan; daughter and sonin-law, Linda and Chris Marino; grandchildren, Jacquelyn Marino, Alexis Marino and Adam Petersen; brothers, Robert, Roger and Ronald Lee; sisters, Alice and Janice; and many nieces and nephews. Just this past summer, Rose was able to spend time in Wisconsin with her brothers and nieces, Diane Lee and Judith Lee, of whom she was very fond. The family asks that contributions and remembrances you wish to make be sent to the UW-Stevens Point Foundation (please designate the “Rose (Lee) Petersen Memorial Fund”) and mail to the UW-Stevens Point, College of Professional Studies, Room 110, 1901 Fourth Ave., Stevens Point, WI 54481, to support early childhood education, which
ADMINISTRATIVE Rose believed to be the very foundation of success and happiness.

Conserve and Save, Take MAX to MAC The popularity of the Timbers creates demand for parking at and near the clubhouse on game days. Thousands of fans coming to Providence Park create traffic congestion and parking headaches. To alleviate these problems, MAC encourages members and guests to use public transportation. The member Parking Structure quickly fills to capacity with members viewing the games from MAC’s Stadium Terrace, and those attending at Providence Park. MAC rents space in nearby lots for complimentary member overflow parking, and nonmembers are charged a fee to park. TriMet and MAC provide an incentive for members and guests to use Portland’s convenient public transportation when commuting to the club. On any day of the week, the Concierge Desk exchanges a TriMet ticket or transfer for a free return ticket on the same day. On major congestion days, including Timbers’ game days, members receive two tickets per receipt. Exchanges are limited to the date on the original ticket or transfer. Using public transportation is a great way to avoid the member Parking Structure during busy times that are posted in the parking grid at theMAC.com. The concierge gladly assists members and guests with TriMet bus and MAX schedules and route information upon request. Multnomah Athletic Club is served by the King Hill MAX Light Rail Station at SW 18th and Salmon, as well as several bus routes. MAC was actively involved in financing the Kings Hill Light Rail Station to encourage members and guests to use alternative transportation to the club. Taking light rail or a bus is a great way to contribute to the health of the environment and avoid overcrowding in the member Parking Structure. For more information, contact the Concierge Desk at 503-517-7235 or concierge@themac.com. WM

Al Tauscher Awards Granted to Exceptional Young MAC Members I
n 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, inspiring 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 are honored at an awards banquet Monday, May 5. Following are profiles of the four teen and six junior award recipients.

In addition, she was selected to serve on the Congressional Youth Leadership Council and the People to People Student Ambassador Program. Adele is currently participating in a virtual youth conference teaching other students around the world about Portland’s sustainable food systems. Her community service achievements include National Charity League – where she is president of her class and a regular hands-on participant – as well as serving as a leader in her school chapter of CommuniCare, a Portland area high school philanthropic foundation. In addition, she actively participates in Explorer Post 58, a Portland area high school outdoor adventure organization with community service projects in the area. Adele is a captain on the Catlin Gabel Track Team, a club soccer Big Sister-mentor to younger players, a Winterim (experiential learning week) leader and building a portfolio in her honors art course. She has truly excelled in soccer, being voted MVP on her school team as well as making the first team all-league and first team all-state teams while also playing for a premier league soccer club.
Her Crossfire Oregon soccer coach, Nick Schwartz, says it best: “This combination of leadership, teamwork, empathy, knowledge, and integrity are what make Adele so important to our group.”

n Juniors Tully Moran Bush Cathedral School • 8th Grade
Tully Bush says it best herself when describing her Al Tauscher Award candidacy: “I am a strong candidate because I have faith in myself and others. I believe in giving it my all, whether it be on a court or in a classroom.” A three-year veteran of MAC’s club volleyball program, Tully is now the co-captain of the MAC 14 Black Team and has for the past two years received the most inspirational player award. “Through MAC, I have grown athletically and created friendships to last a lifetime,” she says. Bush is also a long-term CYO participant in track and field and basketball. She has been an assistant volleyball coach for third and fourth grade CYO Cathedral teams for the past two seasons. In school, Tully works hard focusing on linear equations and getting high marks in all subjects. Last year, she was vice president of the Cathedral School Student Body Council. Liane Ray, Tully’s Science/Religion Teacher, states, “Tully consistently impresses me with her tenacious competitive attitude, creativity and leadership. She is a great role model for her classmates. Tully is known by her classmates to be fun loving and creative. Her teachers would describe her as inquisitive and kind hearted.” Tully really shines in her community service. “My favorite place to go is the Blanchet House in downtown Portland. I enjoy serving food to the homeless. She is specifically asked
to altar serve at funerals, weddings and Archbishop masses. She has grown up delivering the Euchurist to St. Mary’s Cathedral homebound parishioners. Additionally, her service projects include: Potluck in the Park Sock Project, an eighth grade dodge ball fundraiser, and being a role model for her kindergarten buddy.

last nine years – including three years for MAC. Recently, she was accepted to three local private high schools, and has decided on Jesuit.
Sonja Johanson
Sophia Howe truly impressed the Al Tauscher Award subcommittee not only with her athletic and academic achievements, but also with her dedication to community service. Sophia attends eighth grade at West Sylvan Middle School and has been a Girl Scout for the last nine years. In fact, she is so dedicated that she earned the Bronze Award – a recognition award based on high levels of leadership. She is also a camp counselor at a summer Girl Scouts camp where she led and taught young girls important skills, such as sharing and friendship. Sophia actively volunteers in the National Charity League, Loaves and Fishes, and Friends of the Children, where she is a book buddy to at-risk youth. She continues to recognize how important her community is, and strives to work hard to educate herself and help others around her. A quote from Anna Wessinger, her eighth grade Reading/ Writing/Social Studies teacher, says it all. “Currently, I have asked Sophia to sit next to a student who is just learning English. After thinking about all the students in my class, I decided on Sophia, because I knew I could count on her to check in with this student and make sure she doesn’t get lost.” Sophia is a member of the MAC Junior Events Committee and has played volleyball for the
Homeschool • 8th Grade

Sonja is also very involved in her academic life through her independent studies and is most proud of her life experiences and achievements studying abroad. Last year, she was fortunate to spend six months living in France while staying with a host family and partaking in an intense immersion program. It was challenging for her, but in the end she not only learned a new language but an important life lesson – how to “balance work and fun.” Back home in Portland, Sonja stays active in her community through her involvement with computer-technology based nonprofits such as Portland Free Geek.

She also stays involved at Lincoln High School by being an active member of the Ignite program and helping with the school’s “Coffee with a Conscience” coffee cart. The Ignite program is a group of upperclassmen who serve as mentors to incoming freshmen. “Coffee with a Conscience” sells coffee with all profits going to Lincoln’s sister school in the Congo. The goal of the program is to enrich the lives of the students there, and last year, they succeeded by raising enough funds to purchase a school bus. As her Vice Principal states, it is obvious to see “she is committed to helping others.” As an athlete, McCallion has multiple interests and has played with both MAC and Lincoln teams. She enjoys basketball, tennis, track and soccer. With her main focus being soccer, she was honored to go to nationals last spring in Boulder, Colo. with FC Portland.

Haley Schulberg Lincoln High School • 9th Grade
“M
y main goal in life is to be a global citizen who makes a difference in the world,” says Haley Schulberg. And as a ninth grader at Lincoln High School, Haley is well on her way to accomplishing this goal. She has a 4.0 GPA at Lincoln and excels in math. She was recently selected to serve on Lincoln’s Constitution Team, a highly competitive program, and is very involved with the Hope for the Homeless Club, Young Entrepreneur’s Club and Global Roots Club. One of the things Schulberg is most proud of is the work she did with an impoverished school in Volcan, Panama. She worked updating a classroom, which included building a ceiling and tiling a floor. During her time at the school she taught math in Spanish to the first grade class. She is still in contact with her host family and hopes to see them again in the future. Haley is involved as a volunteer with Race for the Cure and delivering meals to the Goose Hollow homeless shelter. As a member of the MAC Black 16’s volleyball team, her coach Jen Wagner says, “her leadership style is by example, and with a quiet confidence that exudes maturity beyond her years.” She also finds time to play on Lincoln’s varsity tennis team.

Brigitte Mepham Cathedral School • 8th Grade
Brigitte Mepham, an eighth grader at Cathedral School, more than meets the criteria of the Al Tauscher Award – whether it be school, sports, service or recreation, Brigitte puts her all into everything she does. Brigitte does many extra-curricular activities while maintaining a 4.0 GPA. She has played volleyball and basketball since second grade. Molly Pearring, Cathedral Volleyball Coach, says, “In each and every game, Brigitte has given her best performance. She excels as an athlete, but more importantly, Brigitte defines the character of a team leader. In each game, Brigitte encouraged all players on the team to be positive, to play to win, and to keep up team spirit.” Brigitte teamed with a group of friends to create “Lemons 4 Hope” to raise money for Northwest Medical Teams International and to raise awareness of the plight of children around the world. Brigitte and her friends raised $200 by selling lemonade, baked goods, and handmade jewelry in their various neighborhoods. A member of the National Charity League, Brigitte volunteers at Meals on Wheels, Race for the Cure, Project Lemonade, Rose Haven, and on a school “sock project” for the homeless at Christmas. As co-chair and past secretary of the MAC Junior Events Committee, Cathedral School Student Body Council president and past secretary, and National Charity League secretary, Brigitte
defines the Tauscher Award criteria of leadership.
Sophia Takla West Sylvan • 7th Grade

She holds the honor of being a John Hopkins Youth Scholar, plays trumpet in the band, is a member of the Coding Club and Drama Club and recently starred as Ariel in the school’s production of The Little Mermaid. According to Karen Rouse, her seventh grade Language Arts and Social Studies Teacher, “Sophia is a stand-out among her peers. Every day she comes bounding into my classroom filled with energy and enthusiasm for learning.” Sophia has been involved at the MAC since birth, taking numerous classes including dance, rock climbing and swimming. She is a competitive dancer and was a two-year member of the Junior Portland Trail Blazer Dancers and is a current member of the Northwest Children’s Theater Kids Company Since age 4, Sophia has been volunteering with Sparrow Clubs to raise thousands of dollars for medically ill children.

Balladeers
Looking Ahead and Looking for Tenors Calling all tenors! The Balladeers are always looking for new people to join their premier men’s choir, but at the moment, the group is especially interested in tenors. And that’s just one item still on the agenda of Balladeers Director Scott Tuomi as he completes his first year with the 35-member group of singers. “It has been a satisfying year,” says Tuomi, who is also choral director at Pacific University, “The group has grown musically. Rehearsals are fun and productive. The men are working hard at learning their music and also enjoying the music we are making.” Tuomi says the March Brothers Sing On concert at the University of Portland was one
of the year’s highlights (the annual Roger Doyle concert at MAC was still to come at press time). Organized by Balladeers Spencer Snow and Karl Wetzel, Brothers Sing On featured men’s choirs from McMinnville and Sunset high schools and the University of Portland, a quartet, an all-star high school choir led by Tuomi and, of course, the Balladeers. “I thought Brothers, which played to a nearly full house, was a fantastic success. It was wonderful to collaborate with so many great men’s choirs. The sound of the massed choirs was amazing,” Tuomi said. Next year, Tuomi has plans to add new members and to “learn new repertoire while we keep old favorites alive. I’m also working to involve the Balladeers in some men’s choral concerts in New York next spring.” How do you get to Carnegie Hall? Practice, practice, practice!

Novelist Mines Personal Past for Orchardist The Evening Literary Readers discuss The Orchardist by Amanda Coplin in May. Growing up in Washington’s Wenatchee Valley, Coplin was surrounded by her grandfather’s orchards. Her debut novel takes the reader back to a time when one could purchase heirloom apples from the growers themselves. At the turn of the 20th century, a reclusive orchardist, William Talmadge, tends to his apples and apricots. One day, two teenage girls appear and steal his fruit from the market; they later return to the outskirts of his orchard to see the man who gave them no chase. Scared and pregnant, the girls take up on Talmadge’s land. Just as the girls begin to trust him, men arrive in the orchard with guns, and the tragedy that follows sets Talmadge on an irrevocable course not only to save and
protect, but also to reconcile the ghosts of his own troubled past. Join the Evening Literary Readers as they consider this remarkable novel with it’s many twists and turns on at 7 p.m., Tuesday, May 27. –Oliver Massingale/Martha Godfrey Dixon

MAC members and their guests were treated to a dramatic, high scoring game between the Portland Timbers and Seattle Sounders in April. MAC’s Stadium Terrace sold to capacity and members who had registered for the Timbers Spin class viewed the game while exercising in the Spin Studio. Meanwhile, MAC’s 20s/30s Committee hosted a group of Washington Athletic Club members in their 20s and 30s, beginning with drinks and a breakfast buffet social at MAC, and followed by a walk to Providence Park, where a section was reserved for the combined WAC and MAC groups. The sporting rivalry made the social mingling all the more exciting and, in the end, neither side could claim victory or defeat. PHOTOS BY ADAM WICKHAM EXCEPT WHERE NOTED

MAC Aquatics Has Something for Every Member, at Every Age and Every Level M
AC Aquatics is a longstanding tradition at the club. The competitive swim team has been around since 1909. The MerryMacs water volleyball team has been playing together for over 50 years.

Opt-in to the “Aquatics – Lap Swim Availability” email group at theMAC.com to receive regular notices regarding pool schedule changes. Lifeguard Training – MAC uses the new American Red Cross “blended learning” course for lifeguard certification classes. This cuts down the required in-classroom time for participants.

MAY 2014
As we approach the sunny days of summer, it is important to keep water safety in mind as we try to find relief from the heat in neighborhood pools, lakes, rivers and the ocean. As professionals in the field of aquatics, it is our passion to educate everyone about water safety and drowning prevention. Please check out the Association of Aquatics Professionals’ new drowning prevention campaign, RESPECT the Water at: www.aquaticpros.org/index. cfm?load=page&page=49 . Drowning is the leading cause of unintentional death among children ages 1 through 5. Drowning is often a silent killer when swimmers are tired and slip below the surface. Many people have seen dramatizations from Hollywood portraying a swimmer shouting for help while waving at a lifeguard. Unfortunately, this portrayal is incorrect and gives parents the wrong idea. When swimming at any pools or bodies of water, there should always be a designated responsible adult watching the swimmers – someone not distracted by a cell phone, magazine or conversations. Additionally, we recommend that all nonswimmers should wear a proper-fitting Coast Guard-approved life jacket when in and around the water. Life vests and arm floaties may be less expensive, but Coast Guard-approved life jackets are the only thing tested by professionals to be safe for nonswimmers. This is the best effort, along with constant, uninterrupted supervision, that parents and guardians can take to protect children around the water. Have a wonderful and safe summer. Drink lots of water and wear sunscreen while outside, and don’t forget to come visit us indoors, too! –Ashelee Mecham, Instructional Supervisor and Melanie Roberts, Lifeguard Supervisor WM

AAU Team Wins State Title After a slow start to their season, the MAC Black fourth-grade boys AAU team took off and never looked back, beating rival Team Balance in the title game to win a state championship.
The boys started with a 4-4 record, but after several tough practices and a few line drills, the team was ready to turn its young season around and won 24 games in row. The winning streak only came to an end when they played older teams in a fifth grade tournament. Head Coach Cliff White and Assistant Coach Paul Robertson thought it was a great learning experience for the kids and would
help prepare the team for the 2014 AAU Oregon State Championships. Creswell hosted the AAU Oregon State Championships in March. The boys opened against Triple Threat, and while the game was close, MAC eventually won by 20. MAC lost the next game in its first matchup against a very physical and tough Team Balance, but bounced back with a win over No. 1 seed, D1 Prospects. The win catapulted them into the championship game for the second straight year, and a rematch with Team Balance. Coach White said the boys worked too hard to fall short, and after a long four quarters, MAC prevailed for the win. The MAC Black fourth-grade team included Anton Baricevic, Spence Buth, Owen Davies, Nelson Keljo, Luke Laber, Esyah Pippa-White, Luke Porter, Books Rice, Nick Robertson and Philip Rosenfeld. There was great support from the parents and staff at MAC for making this happen.

Handball
Players Rack Up Wins for the Club The Club Singles Championships were held in early March with some of the usual suspects coming out on top. In the Open, Matt Steele beat a very competitive Bob Herrera, and Josh Bateman showed off the results of his training program by winning the consolation. In the A’s, Steve Grow and JD McLandrich were scheduled to duke it out. Unfortunately, JD was too sick to play so Steve had to put the hammer down on Craig Trull in an exhibition match prior to the Open finals. John VanGorder won the A consolation. In the B’s, it was Roger Swanson and Jon Polansky battling for supremacy. Roger played very well, but Jon’s extreme conditioning paid off as he was able to defeat Roger. Continued on page 54

The Second Saturday ride on May 10 takes cyclists west to Hagg Lake.
cycling
Cyclists Head to Hagg This Month D aylight is stretching well into the evening – time to dust off the bike and ride with MAC. The club’s cycling coaches are motivating and experienced. They are dedicated to working with cyclists to improve riding skills and techniques, with a focus on safe group riding. Most riding events require multigeared road bikes and proper cycling attire. Participants should have a level of physical fitness to be able to maintain a comfortable riding speed of 15 mph for an hour. Here are a few upcoming rides and events:
Injury Prevention and the Benefits of Functional Fitness Training 3-5 p.m., May 25 MAC spin instructor Mike Manning, a professional cycling coach, leads this clinic, which emphasizes the importance of proper posture and correct movement patterns in preventing chronic overuse injuries. There will be a demonstration of functional fitness movements specifically designed to improve one’s cycling.
Wednesday night rides 6 p.m., three locations The rides start at 6 p.m. with alternating locations. Rides start at the MAC, Sauvie Island, or the Germantown Road/ Skyline Boulevard intersection. The rides leaving from MAC and
Germantown are more challenging, while Sauvie Island focuses on riding skills and technique, with one designated night – the third Wednesday of each month – reserved for a more social tour around the island. Think BYOB! Check theMAC.com for the start schedule.
Second Saturday rides Hagg Lake, May 10 The ride begins at McMenamins Grand Lodge in Forest Grove and heads to Hagg Lake. The roads are fairly flat out to the lake, then it’s an undulating 11-mile lap with some rolling hills. The 36-mile route circles the lake. The 20-mile route turns around at the country store. Relax afterward at the lodge. Meet at 9 a.m. at McMenamins Grand Lodge, 3505 Pacific Ave. The ride starts promptly at 9:15 a.m. Banks/Vernonia, June 14 Bring the family for two options starting in Banks. There is a challenging ride route to Vernonia, and a a short out-and-back for families. Cylists 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. There is a 9 a.m. route review and 9:15 a.m. start time. WM

Aaron Garner, currently ranked No. 11, was required to play in the qualifier to make it to the elite 16 bracket. He played well and defeated David Chapman en route to being the No. one qualifier. Unfortunately for Garner, he ran into a very sharp Naty Alvarado, Jr. Garner lost 25-16 in the one-game format.

Registration Opens for June Blood Drive Over the past decade, MAC members have saved the lives of thousands of people through blood donations. Whether those donations went to help those suffering from a natural disaster, a routine surgery, or a person involved in a traumatic accident, the American Red Cross thanks members for saving lives. This June, the Red Cross has asked MAC to again step up and help those in need. On Thursday, May 28, and Friday, May 29, look for MAC staff and members stationed in the lobby and at the Athletic Entrance to sign up for a time to donate. Members also may contact Integrative Fitness Coordinator Keri Donovan at ext. 539 to register, or log on to redcrossblood.org to register.
Athletics The drive takes place from 11:30 a.m.-5 p.m., Wednesday, June 4, and 8:30 a.m.- 6:30 p.m., Thursday, June 5, in the MAC Gallery. One pint of blood can save up to three lives, and 5 million patients in the United States need blood every year. Members may check their eligibility and get more information online at redcrossblood.org.
Stay Heart Healthy with Cardiac Rehab The human heart weighs the same as a can of your favorite soda. That’s the same heaviness as 10 AA batteries or a dozen CDs sitting on the shelf at home. We’ve been told our hearts can feel heavy or a joke could be light-hearted. Frank Sinatra sang that we should be “Young At Heart.” Bands have been named after it, athletes have played them out, and Edgar Allan Poe has written that the heart tells tales. While many of us know the significance of the human heart, the nurses who work with MAC members in Cardiac Rehab twice a week know just how important a group setting is to heart health. “It obviously has the benefits of a monitored exercise class with exercise programming, ongoing motivation, heart health
education, and medication management. But often I notice it is the social outlet and camaraderie among the members in the group that keeps them coming back,” says Alecia Pollard, a nurse with Legacy Heart Institute. Pollard has been working with the MAC Cardiac Rehab program since 2008 and has watched dozens of MAC members rehab from various heart conditions. MAC Integrative Fitness runs the program in coordination with Legacy Heart Institute. Participants meet on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 1-2:30 p.m. to work through any heart issues they may have. “This is an ongoing class, some of the members in the group have been attending since the program started in 2002 and attribute their longevity to it,” Pollard says, “[The camaraderie] is something that is priceless and has many benefits of its own.” The program is open to any members who are at risk for heart disease, costs $70
per month and is not covered by insurance. To sign up for the program, please contact Integrative Fitness Coordinator, Keri Donovan at ext. 539.

A Heartfelt Thanks for a Lifesaving Effort I need to offer a huge thank you to all of the wonderful MAC staff and members who were there for me in December when I suffered a heart attack at the club. To the staff and members who tended to me while awaiting the ambulance – my heart is filled with gratitude, and I can never thank you enough! To my friend and longtime co-worker, MAC member Nancy Phelps, who stayed with me while dialing 911 – there are no words to express how incredibly blessed I am to have serendipitously encountered you that day. To all of the Pilates team and to the wonderful members and staff who sent cards, emails, messages and texts of love and encouragement, as well as bouquets of beautiful flowers – thank you from the bottom of my heart. I, quite literally, was buoyed by the outpouring of your love and support. Thank you, thank you, thank you to all. Continued on page 56

Pilates instructor Temple Tait-Ochs recently suffered a heart attack at the club, but is recovering well. She warns about symptoms specific to women.
Pilates Continued from page 55 Pilates – how does that fit in? Well, Pilates transformed my life and my body and brought me to MAC. Pilates gave me the physical strength and training to begin my journey as a fitness instructor. Pilates has sustained that strength as my repertoire has grown to include multiple exercise formats, including indoor cycling. Were it not for that strength, and the conditioning I have experienced as a result of engaging in strenuous aerobic exercise while teaching many times a week, the aftermath of my heart attack would have been drastically different. The type of heart attack I suffered quite commonly results in death. Those who survive are often left with significant damage to the heart muscle and ensuing limitations related to that damage. My conditioning saved my life and my lifestyle. The damage to my heart was so minimal that I was teaching indoor cycling 16 days after the heart attack.

It’s critical to believe everything you read or hear about women’s heart attack symptoms being different than men’s, and it’s important to know those symptoms. First, understand that I am a medical anomaly – there is no genetic history of heart disease or problems in my family, I have very low cholesterol (with lots of the good cholesterol), have never been a meat eater, don’t drink, don’t smoke and exercise regularly. So, how could this happen
to me? No one can answer that question, but every medical professional I consulted agreed that all of the above protected me during and after the heart attack. Why does this matter? Because, even if you have zero risk factors, (like me) you need to be aware of the symptoms of a heart attack and seek help immediately. We’ve all heard of the classic heart attack symptoms – pain/pressure on the left side of the chest, pain radiating down the left arm, etc. I experienced none of those classic symptoms. The pain associated with my heart attack started under my right shoulder blade, traveled up through my right shoulder, continued up the right side of my neck and exploded at the right tip of my jaw. I did break out in a cold sweat as the pain began, and that was very strange, given that I was a hot/sweaty mess 45 minutes into a cycle class. I was able to finish that class and change clothes for the next one, but I soon realized that I had to get out of the Mezzanine Level and get help or I would not be seeing my family again. And this is where wonderful Nancy came in to save the day – bless you, Nancy! I was “lucky,” in that my pain was so severe that it incapacitated me and there was no option but to call 911. Not all women experience such intense pain, even during a serious heart attack, and don’t get the medical attention they need soon enough to survive or limit the damage to the heart. Bottom line, heart attacks can, and do, happen to anyone, regardless of medical Continued on page 58

A Smashing Success for Squash in Portland The $16,000 Oregon Open 2014, a Professional Squash Association World Tour event hosted by MAC in February, was well received within the Portland squash community and left participants and spectators with countless fond memories. The professional players, traveling from all over the world, including the Oregon Open 2014 Champion Joe Lee from England, commented the tournament amenities, organization and warm reception by hosting families far-exceeded comparable PSA World Tour events. In turn, spectators and hosting families and their juniors have their pro favorites cemented and lifelong memories.
Professional squash player Joe Lee, above, of England joined a dozen other pros during the 2014 Oregon Open Squash Championship at MAC In February. Oregon Open 2014 Tournament Chairman Anders Giltvedt noted, “The Organizing Committee is very pleased the goals of Oregon Open 2014 were successfully accomplished. One of those was increased
exposure of the Tour. Squash is played worldwide and growing rapidly. For example, the number of registered U.S. junior squash players more than doubled over the past five years and the number of high schools with squash

Athletics teams tripled. Unfortunately, and despite its expanding reach and popularity, the sport has been a runner-up in its last three Olympic bids for the “new” Olympic sport designation. An Olympic invite would not only provide squash a solid financial tailwind, but also immense promotional exposure. The Oregon Open 2014 is one out of many small grassroots steps worldwide to showcase the sport’s excellent entertainment value and outstanding athleticism. The tournament received nearly five minutes of TV airtime coverage over the tournament week, providing well-deserved exposure for the sport and its dedicated professional players.” A second objective for the committee was to work with U.S. Squash, the national body for squash, to provide the U.S. National Team players an opportunity to compete in a tournament at Oregon Open’s prize money level. If not exempted through an invite, ability to enter a PSA event depends on a player’s world ranking. With many of the U.S players having turned professional over the past 12 months, it would be challenging for a number of these players to gain entry on their own merit into the Oregon Open. Furthermore, the Oregon Open surely created lifelong memories to relish for many of MAC’s and Portland’s junior squash players. The professional players, coming from more than 10 countries, were hosted by local families, the majority of which have junior squash players. Hosting a professional player in their home for the tournament week provided a close-up opportunity to see firsthand the dedication, focus and discipline associated with professional sports. Through the various junior events, the tournament also introduced squash to many children not having access to the sport. Moreover, but very important to the Organizing Committee, the tournament was able to donate its targeted goal to ARC of Multnomah Clackamas, a well-deserving nonprofit organization providing critical support to families and individuals affected by disabilities. Finally, Ed Stoner, the MAC athletic director, also showed off his squash talent during the Pro-Am Exhibition. Ed enjoyed a “leisurely Saturday afternoon game” with Egyptian professional Karim Ali Fathi, the second-ranked player in the world among players 20 years and younger. Ed, you are a sport! Giltvedt is hopeful the organizing committee can make the Oregon Open PSA Tournament an annual stop on the PSA World Tour calendar. The tremendous response this year has certainly boosted the Continued on page 62

Two National Titles for MAC Lexi York wins third consecutive title; Gavin Usher wins doubles crown at high school nationals
L
exi York of La Salle Prep High School and Gavin Usher of Lincoln High School both won national titles at the 2014 High School National Championships held at MAC in March. York won the Girls No. 1 Singles division for the third consecutive year winning all of her matches without dropping a game. Usher and his partner, playing doubles, breezed through the tournament until the finals, where they dropped the first game 7-15, but fought back and won the next two games 15-12 and 11-8 to win the title in Boys No. 1 Doubles for Lincoln High School. York’s win is her third in as many tries, giving the La Salle junior a chance to tie the record of four national singles titles in a row. Since she started playing racquetball at age 9, she has won multiple state and regional tournaments, and has won 10 national titles in a combination of adult, junior and high school national tournaments. York has competed four times at the Junior World Championships as a member of the USA Junior National Team. Usher, a sophomore, has been playing squash for five years and racquetball for two years, during which he has become the No. 2 player on the Lincoln racquetball team. He competes in Junior Nationals in Denver in June. The club buzzed with activity throughout the weekend, with 335 students competing from 38 different high schools. MAC members Sanjay Bedi, Scott Cohn, David Szafranski and Tom Inglesby coached during the event. In addition to York and Usher, 13 MAC players participated. Other MAC members who represented the club well were Catherine Barton, Henry Novak and Lindsay Briglia from Lincoln, and Alex Neiber from Sunset High School.

One Dynamic Leader Makes Way for Another
Marcia Wood has been a dynamic, diplomatic, game-changing leader of the squash committee for the past two years – a term extended anothery ear by popular demand. Under her watch, the squash community has rallied together, gaining a weekly Thursday night round robin, a family clinic on Sundays, and an improved junior program. There’s new furniture in the lounge, a new website and reservation system, a head pro recruitment in the works, and a comprehensive five-year plan. Most importantly, squash players of all ages and levels feel supported and respected. “She has set a high bar,” says Derrick Cameron, who served as chairman for two years before Wood. But fear not: One of Wood’s other accomplishments was to start a “chair in training” program, in which Amy Gaddis has been immersed for the past six months. All hail, Amy! Expect to see the return of the keg at tournaments. On the courts, two MAC players have been killing it in major tournaments across the country. In February, Sean Ryan won the 5.5 division of the West Coast Regional Championship in San Francisco, while Josh Hilton won the 40-plus age group division at the Stratos Seattle Open in January. Both
players qualified for the 2014 U.S. Masters Squash Championships tournament in Charlottesville, N.C., in March, where Ryan won the prized Classic Plate in the 45-plus age group by beating Trent Haase from Toronto 3-1, and Hilton won Consolation in the 40-plus age group by coming back from two games down to win 3-2 over Kevin Klipstein, the president of U.S. Squash. Ryan and Hilton are regulars at the Thursday night round robin, which starts at 5:45 p.m. But don’t be intimidated! Organizer Tom Taylor wants more C and D level players to show up. The women’s clinic also could use more players of all levels, says Wendy Comstock, who is there every weekend to help out.

Record Numbers Get Early Start on Season A record number of athletes turned out for MAC’s Indoor Sprint Triathlon in March, despite the time change for daylight savings. The event includes a timed 200-meter swim, a 10-mile spin on the Keiser bike and a 2-mile run on the indoor track. The 10-1010 Challenge, contested on the same day, measures the total distance a triathlete covers during a swim, spin and run in 10 minutes. There is no transition time between sports, so athletes can take their time to shower, change clothes, and grab food at their leisure. A total of 26 athletes did the sprint event and eight did the 10-10-10 challenge.
Sprint results Sam Shiley, 44, won the overall sprint and clocked the fastest 2-mile run of the day. The

The men also were locked in a close contest, with the male winner and third overall, Jeff Grub, 61 years young, over Brian Currier, 46. Grub’s fast swim and run was just enough to edge out his competition by one point. Currier won his age group, as did Richard Josephson, 66, Elise Orban, 54, and Brian Greanleaf, 30. Red-faced and sweaty, happy triathletes finished and had refreshments afterwards while chatting about their three-sport

Are you:
Walking and Hiking invites members and guests to an informative evening with the North Coast Land Conservancy at 7 p.m. Thursday, May 8. Hear about exciting new outings that showcase protected lands this organization works diligently to protect. Since 1986, North Coast Land Conservancy has been working to conserve and connect the unique landscape of the northern Oregon coast. With more than 42 properties in their ownership and many more protected under conservation easements, NCLC is creating corridors that allow wildlife, from songbirds to elk, to freely roam. Come and meet this coastal land trust, discover ways to support their work, and learn about opportunities to join them at the coast for walks or canoe trips to hidden forests, marshes, dunes and lakes on Oregon’s spectacular north coast. Join NCLC Executive Director Katie Voelke to learn more about this exceptional organization and the season ahead. The presentation starts at 7 p.m. There is no cost to attend, but registration assists with planning. Register online on the Walking and Hiking homepage or call 503-517-7539. From May through October, the conservancy invites the public to attend guided walks and paddle trips into several of the properties. These programs offer an insider’s look at hidden gems dotting the coastal edge. There is a special walk at the coast for MAC members on Wednesday, May 21. More details are available at the presentation.

Enjoy a Close-up Look at Rose Parade Floats The Walking and Hiking committee invites members and guests of all ages to the popular annual MAC Parade Walk on Rose Festival Parade day, Saturday, June 7. Depart on foot from the Turnaround at 7 a.m. for a two-mile walk on city streets and across a bridge to the Memorial Coliseum for a close-up view of the floats as they assemble for the parade. Security surrounding the floats varies each year. Some years, access to Continued on page 66 May 2014

Athletics Rose Parade Floats Continued from page 65 floats is close-up and personal; other years, the roped area only allows viewing from a distance. It is hoped that 2014 is a year with good access to the floats to really see the wonderful detail.
Once at the Coliseum, look and linger as long as desired, then chose from several different options for the return to MAC. The most fun, but longest choice, is to walk the entire official parade route. Vehicle traffic is suspended, and parade watchers line the route. It is festive and fun. Another choice for the return to MAC is to walk part way
and stop at a great place to watch the parade. If the whole parade route is too long, take a short cut through town back to MAC. Walkers not interested in walking back to MAC can easily catch MAX at the Coliseum and ride back. Another choice is to meander through the city to a bakery or cafe for coffee and breakfast. Dress for the weather. Breakfast and snacks are good ideas for those intending to walk the entire route of six miles to and from MAC. There is no charge. Registration is helpful for planning, but is not required. Call 503-517-7539, or go to the walking and hiking homepage on the website.

Athletics month and for various symptoms, to support a healthy menstruation and a smooth transition into menopause. Women experience a constant dance of fatigue and renewal in the body. This tremendous shift and release of energy is both unsettling and liberating. Becoming aware of one’s cyclical nature and how to best pair it with a regular yoga practice can ease the flow.
Life Passages Though menopause itself is when menstruation stops, the transition generally takes several years. This phase, called perimenopause, typically occurs in women between the ages of 40 and 55. During this time, fluctuating hormones can trigger a myriad of uncomfortable symptoms. Among the most common are hot flashes, anxiety and irritability, insomnia, fatigue, depression and mood swings, memory lapses, and an erratic menstrual cycle. While yoga postures have not been shown to directly influence estrogen production, Hanson discusses some specific yoga practices that can help women better manage their symptoms.
Seeking Restoration According to spiritual teachers and women’s health experts, the monthly cycle urges women to pause from their daily responsibilities and take some much-needed quiet time. Hanson, who recently returned from living in East Java, Indonesia, notes that it is common for women there to hibernate anywhere from one to three days every month during their cycles. “They unabashedly announce their periods, and take time

The Yoga of Yoga MAC yoga instructor Lani Jelen will be teaching a special workshop, The Yoga of Yoga, from 6:30-8:30 pm. Friday, June 6. This is a special class where you will explore the truth of your own body and is for students already familiar with yoga basics and poses. The workshop will be 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 your inner sense of alignment and support. The goal is to find new freedom, clarity and spaciousness in your yoga practice, even as you practice a more vigorous flow. This workshop is free, but registration is required.

Oregon Open, February 17-22, MAC Despite the Portland crowd showing impressive support for local players, including the eight-time U.S. National Champion Julian Illingworth, who is relocating from New York back to Portland in June, the competition proved too big of a challenge. Below are expanded local results from the event (winners in bold). Qualifying Round 1: Joe Chapman, British Virgin Islands vs. Sean Ryan, MAC: 3-0 (11-4, 11-5, 11-1) 20 minutes Ryan, the local marathon man, had a good run against Chapman, but in the end, his second wind seemed to blow the sails of the on-course British Virgin Islander, who cruised to a 3-0 victory. Reuben Phillips, England vs. Charlie Wagner, MAC: 3-0 (11-4, 11-6, 11-3) 33 minutes
Athletics Wagner channeled strong hometown chi in his qualification showing. He held and sliced some great winners, but Phillips wasn’t fazed as he calmly applied pressure until the 3-0 win was sealed. Andrew Schnell, Canada vs. Anders Giltvedt, MAC: 3-0 (11-4, 11-5, 11-5) 28 minutes As if the tournament director, Giltvedt, didn’t already have enough on his hands, the feistily fast Schnell put him to work in all four corners of the court on his way to a well-played 3-0 win, which included entertaining drop-lob sequences. To sum it up in Norwegian: “Uffda!” Karamatullah Khan, Pakistan vs. Atticus Jones, MAC: 3-0 (11-3, 11-1, 11-9) 25 minutes The most anticipated match of the day featured the MAC’s own Jones against Khan. The crowd was having fun and cheered as Jones showed flashes of genius against the entertaining Pakistani, who seemed determined not to force the error. Nearly saving five match-balls, Jones made a gutsy late run, but ultimately fell 3-0 to the experienced Khan.
I REFUSE TO LOOK MY AGE!
Main Draw – First Round: Joe Lee, England vs. Adam Perkiomaki, MAC (11-2, 11-6, 11-3) 26 minutes Perkiomaki, invited directly into the main draw, faced the eventual Oregon Open 2014 Champion Lee, who decided less running with Adam is more energy later. With Lee camping in the middle of the court, Perkiomaki impressed the crowd with his ability to explore court corners and find intermittent opportunities to slice a surprise winner. Alfredo Avila, Mexico vs Julian Illingworth, MAC (11-5, 11-5, 11-6) 44 minutes The fleet-footed and frighteningly-quick Avila put on a decadent display of delicate drops and devastating drives, leaving the crafty Illingworth little opportunity to execute his game plan.

Yoga Continued from page 67 off from their jobs or any kind of social engagement in order to rest and renew,” she explains. While Western women may be expected to simply keep calm and carry on, there remains a natural longing during the transition for solitude. The practice of yoga helps us to integrate and cooperate fully with this process, to support the physical and spiritual journeys of life.

Dennis Cunningham Displays Block-printed Images at MAC Artist’s Reception
P
rominent Oregon printmaker Dennis Cunningham exhibits his prints and drawings in the MAC Reading Lounge from May 1 through June 26. Even those who don’t know his name may have seen his work; specifically his iconic images of fish or Oregon’s scenic rivers. Join Cunningham at an artist’s reception
from 5-7 p.m., Tuesday, May 27, for a glass of wine and great conversation. A no-host bar is available. Cunningham was born in Medford and is known for his crisp graphic images and outstanding block-printing techniques. This marks his 30th year at Marylhurst University, where he has taught block-printing, design, life drawing and metal sculpture classes. He coordinates the bachelor of fine arts program at Marylhurst while simultaneously being enrolled in the university’s interdisciplinary masters program.
“I have always wanted as an artist, to be remembered as having been here, and to have fondly made pictures about my home state.” — Dennis Cunningham The artist also earned acclaim for his public art installation at the State of Oregon Library in Salem. A February 2014 Oregonian article praised the lasting value of his work at the capitol, finished in 2000. “I have always wanted as an artist, to be remembered as having been here, and to have fondly made pictures about my home state,” Cunningham says. Cunningham’s most recently completed book project is The Osage Orange Tree, by Oregon’s late poet laureate, William Stafford. For the book, published to celebrate the 100-year anniversary of the poet’s birth, Cunningham carved 25 different two-color linocut images to accompany Stafford’s text. The art subcommittee has recently purchased two of the Osage prints for the club. In Cunningham’s prints and drawings one witnesses the artist’s love of Oregon, his literate sensibilities, his impeccable craftsmanship and his elegant sense of design. For more information, call 503-517-7265 or visit theMAC.com. WM
The Art Subcommittee needs your help. You may have noticed the museum-quality labels affixed to nearly all of MAC’s Northwest art collection. The one piece that remains unlabeled is the massive wooden mural or “marquetry” depicting a wooded landscape with deer, located outside the Sports Pub. Since there are no visible markings or signage, we can only guess about the artist and origin. There are similar pieces locally and regionally that appeared during the Works Progress Administration. A name that keeps surfacing is Aimee Spencer Gorham. If you can contribute any additional information or confirmation that we might have the right artist, please email Christine Draper in the Facilities Department at CDraper@themac.com.
