nrich lives, foster friendships . . .” I am not sure if members are fully aware, but these are the first four words in our club’s mission statement. In many ways, we all initiate them intuitively through our work, G. Husband family, acquaintances, ToddSECRETARY neighbors and other community services. With MAC, members engage in friendships via sports, social activities, committees and dining. It is the environment provided by MAC that helps encourage and strengthen this behavior among us all. My relationship with the club began at age 7. As new members, my family decided to attend the Sunday Prime Rib Buffet. Upon entering, we were immediately asked to leave, since my younger brother and I were not adorned in a proper coat and tie. It was an embarrassing and uncomfortable situation, and we wre not sure what to do. Apparently, an unknown trustee witnessed this encounter, came to our aid and discreetly informed staff that an adjustment had just occurred in the rules (though not implemented) that would allow young men 12 and under to enter with a dress shirt, dress slacks and dress shoes. Fortunately, we were conditionally allowed to enter and proceeded to have wonderful buffet, but the encounter left its mark. Unintentionally, this unknown good Samaritan trustee established the first connection that began a life’s journey of enriched relationships my family and I have come to appreciate. That was close to 50 years ago, and to this day, I rarely sport a jacket or tie. Subconsciously, I’m still rebelling! I’m now considered a “legacy member.” Some of you might find this impressive. Others might view legacy members as advocates for old-school beliefs, who fear change. Well, like that good Samaritan trustee, I have tried to be just as forthright, accommodating and gracious when it comes to serving to all our members and staff. It has been pointed out to me on many occasions that the standard travel time from the entrance desk to a final destination, such as the gym, exercise rooms or lockers, takes the average person five to 10 minutes to complete. I, on the other hand, find that it takes 20 to 40 minutes as I respond to inquiries for “Trustee Todd,” “Mr. Secretary” or the common inquiry, “Hey, do you have a minute for a MAC question?” These temporary delays might seem daunting to most people, but they are minor compared to the results and satisfaction members feel after they take a moment to
express whatever is on their minds. Through these many encounters, I have learned to listen, understand and introduce members to one another for some amazing connections and results. Not all are positive, but the vast majority end with a better understanding and appreciation after taking the time to respond. Friendships and enriched lives go beyond the membership. Our staff is just as important to foster as well. For my fellow trustees and myself, the relationships with staff have not only been enjoyable, but their attention to providing exceptional service has been immeasurable. Events and Catering, Athletics, At Your Service, Member Services, Marketing and Communications, Business, Mporium, Housekeeping and others all take a vested interest in providing the best service they can in running an operation the size of MAC. Although we members all have busy lives and, at times, would appreciate more attention to our personal needs, keep in mind that there are more than 22,000 personal needs to be accommodated. Take time to introduce yourself to staff members; these wonderful people will make you feel special while at the same time contributing to the club’s success. There are other relationships that go beyond the boundaries of MAC. Outside organizations, neighborhoods and government all have indirect but important relationships with MAC. It sometimes goes unnoticed that despite them not being a part of MAC, MAC is a part of them. In order to be at our best and do our part, it is important for us to be good citizens for the success and the future our community. The club provides this by hosting tournaments, through MAF grants and scholarships, with MACorps volunteers, MelloMacs and Balladeers performances and more. As I enter the remaining months as your secretary with the duties and responsibilities that go with the position, I chose to reflect more on the first four words to our mission statement. In my mind, this is the very essence of this organization, and is much more inspirational than an officer’s job description. As your secretary and trustee, I must say with regards to my fellow classmates: President Bob Radler, Vice President Marlis Miller and Treasurer Laura Martin – that I have found and fostered three amazing relationships in twoand-a-half years. Their knowledge, teamwork, and partnership have provided the education, inspiration and determination to accomplish the most extraordinary tasks (some that went well beyond the ordinary in job descriptions) during our tenure on the Board of Trustees. Oh, and by the way, when I have completed my time on the board and you happen upon me around the club, you can always enrich me with a: “Hello Todd, Do you have a minute – for a friend?” At which I will smile and say: “Absolutely, always for a friend!” WM OCTOBER 2017

ver the summer, I had the opportunity to watch excited children come into the club with their parents, run to registration and sprint to see their camp counselors or coaches. The fear factor of children and their parents getting Norm Rich into the camp routine GENERAL MANAGER has been minimized by the excellent work of Youth Programs Manager Cathy Heinke, Junior Activities Supervisor Mike Donovan, our coaches and staff. It truly is a pleasure to witness MAC children grow from babies, to toddlers, to students, to college students, to having their own families and beyond. Watching these bonds develop and grow between and among families makes my job one of the best out there. Strolling around the club and interacting with kids, their families, the coaches and staff is truly the best part of every day. I have now known many of you for over 10 years and watched your families grow in a number of ways. Many of you married and began your own families. Others grew from recreational to regional or national athletes. Many went on to college or entered the workforce. A few joined one of the military branches. I have lost many member friends who have passed on, but I know I am a better person for knowing them and you. I value our friendships, relationships and our determination to make the MAC the best we can. Since January, we have redefined some job roles and responsibilities and brought some new directors and managers to help us focus on our future. We have reconfigured our organizational chart to better focus on operating the club by having our directors direct and take responsibility for day-to-day decisions. I have begun to work closely with our trustees to strategically think about where the future of our club should be headed. We are not broken, but we need to position ourselves for our future. We survey our members every five years; we will suggest we shorten the time between surveys to every three years. Recently, we took the opportunity to survey future members who were part of our lottery. They provided interesting points of view that we will use with our most recent member survey to better understand our members and future members. Rather than focusing on 2020, which is right around
the corner, we are focusing on revising our Strategic Plan, which will encompass a much longer period of time. That focusing on programs and facilities that will serve our membership well for the next 20 years and beyond. Over 20 years ago members, committees, trustees and management partnered on a similar mission that led to the Loprinizi Wing. I cannot imagine where we would be today without it.
Parking update Board President Bob Radler used the P (parking) word three months ago in his column to discuss a topic that is important to members. It is a difficult issue that is an enormous challenge to solve. His column generated a great deal of sounding boards and emails that encouraged us to electronically survey our membership to determine the least painful solutions to our parking problem. Some members did not think we had a parking issue; most did, and offered suggestions for how to solve the problem. We are first looking at ways to reduce demand while we search for a workable supply solution. We cannot wish the problem away nor say it does not exist. We are determined to find solutions but have no illusions that they will be easy or painless. We last added parking 31 years ago and added members at the conclusion of the Loprinzi construction in 1999.
Saying goodbye to summer Lastly, we welcomed families back to the club in September as we left summer behind (hopefully with good memories) and reluctantly began the fall routine. Family Fridays started in September. They take on more significance as the seasons and leaves change. Families enjoy time together, and friends play and socialize. Family Fridays has been one of our signature events for more than 20 years. Junior dances returned, recreational and competitive sports teams began their athletic seasons and My MAC Playschool started, with our junior members forging school relationships with one another. I had the opportunity to hear some of the kids miss their moms and dads a bit too much on the first few days of classes. I have a routine of fist bumping with MAC kids as they march down the hall on their way to class. It makes my day and starts my efforts to interact with members at all levels. Our members are our primary interest and we value your opinions, suggestions and ideas. Balancing all of them is challenging and meaningful and something that I love! WM OCTOBER 2017

I
hope the arrival of this month’s Winged M finds each of you healthy and well. With over 20 years of private club experience, one thing I have learned is that clubs like Washington Athletic Club, New York Athletic Club, Phil Galvin the Olympic Club ATHLETIC AND WELLNESS DIRECTOR and MAC all operate within a unique set of circumstances and in their own distinct ways. There are simply few places in the world that provide their members with the amenities and facilities that MAC does. As I continue to learn the idiosyncrasies of the club, I would be remiss not to thank Assistant Athletic and Wellness Director Lisa Virtue. She has provided, and continues to provide, me with a wealth of institutional knowledge. Thanks to her help, my learning curve has been significantly shortened. She has been extremely patient with me as I wrap my mind around things like member coaches, championship funding and the greatness of Bill Zander. As I have mentioned in previous columns, I tend to be an ‘out in the club’ kind of leader. How do you know if the pool is too cold if you don’t swim in it yourself? How about the speed of the new fans in the E&C Room – are they set too high? Being in the club and experiencing it tends to allow for more accurate thinking. During September, I had the chance to take my first spin, aquatics and yoga classes. Wow! I would highly encourage those of you who have never taken a group exercise class to give one a try. I know they can seem intimidating. Let me assure you that once you get inside, there are people with an array of different abilities. We also had our inaugural all-staff meeting in September. The session was a great opportunity to celebrate the fantastic team that we have at MAC. We discussed many topics, including the club’s quest to provide you with incredible member service. Our goal is provide you with a fantastic experience every time you come to the club. Behaviors that are important to staff include: being positive, working hard and helping others. To quote Brent Gleeson, a former Navy Seal and a leading consultant for organizational behavior, “There is nothing more powerful in an organization than having all employees rowing fiercely in the same direction.” With the hustle of the holidays around the corner, please make time to use your club. Additionally, never hesitate to reach out to me if I can help you in any way. We are here to help! WM

FACES IN THE CLUB Longtime member Harry Glickman, one of the most influential figures in Oregon sports history, was honored during the Oregon Sports Hall of Fame ceremony at MAC in September. Glickman is best known as the founder of the Trail Blazers, serving as the team’s president and general manager for many years. But that’s just one item on a remarkable resume. Glickman began his career promoting boxing matches, eventually making his way into other arenas, bringing the Harlem Globetrotters to Portland and preseason NFL games to Multnomah Stadium (now Providence Park). He also founded the Portland Buckaroos, who played in the Western Hockey League from 1960 through 1974. Glickman was named Portland’s First Citizen in 1993 and is a member of the International Jewish Sportsman Hall of Fame in Israel. He was inducted into the Oregon Sports Hall of Fame in 1986.

If you see the menu at Joe’s taking a decidedly autumnal turn, thank chef April Ramos and manager Julie Waldman. They’re doing their best to keep Joe’s offerings fresh and healthy, which means changing with the seasons. “We’re working to incorporate fall into the menu,” Ramos says, citing the addition of dishes featuring pears, sweet potatoes, Brussels sprouts and butternut squash, among other comforting favorites. Waldman and Ramos also continue to ramp up Joe’s grab-and-go menu, finding new ways to meet the needs of busy MAC members. Wraps were recently added to the menu, giving timepressed patrons more options regardless of the season. Read more about Joe’s new grab-and-go offerings on page 13.
Aaron Paulson was inducted into the Oregon Sports Hall of Fame during a ceremony at MAC in September. During a swimming career that spanned two decades, Paulson, who has limited use of his legs due to a childhood bout with Polio, competed in five Paralympic Games, winning a bronze and two gold medals. He is the first adaptive sports athlete to be inducted into the Oregon Sports Hall of Fame. Paulson joined MAC as a scholar athlete in the 1990s, and has become a staple at the club. In recent years, he traded the pool for a paddle, competing in international kayaking competitions, including world championships. He also serves as an instructor at eNRG Kayaking in Oregon City.
Junior member Presley Cable was selected by the Boston Red Sox for their Lindos Sueños program in the Dominican Republic. The program brings together Dominican and American youth from different backgrounds. For two weeks, they work on a community service project in the morning and play baseball in the afternoon. Cable is a sophomore in Lincoln High School’s Spanish Immersion program and carries a 3.95 weighted GPA. He is a member of the Spanish, French and National Honor Society, and was the president of the Latino Student Union at Lake Oswego High School in 2015-16. He is trying out for the Chilean National Baseball Team in October.

It should come as no surprise to anyone who’s met Nolan Wilcock that he was a cheerleader while studying at Utah State University. The internturned-assistant to MAC Athletic and Wellness Director Phil Galvin radiates enthusiasm wherever he goes. Wilcock seems jazzed for whatever the world, and now the Trail Blazers, might toss at him. He recently made the Blazers’ Stunt Team, and will soon be on the court, “yelling and throwing people.” Fortunately, he’s had plenty of practice generating good vibes at MAC. “Anytime you see something and ask, ‘Who’s going to take care of that?’ – It’s probably going to be me,” he says of his job duties. “Mostly I run around giving high fives.”

ungry? In a hurry, Joe’s can help. Just ask Joe’s Chef April Ramos. “Convenience is key,” she says, discussing the recently expanded menu of grab-and-go offerings. In April, Multnomah Athletic Club’s signature snack spot was renovated to make it more visually appealing and help it better meet the needs of members. This included introducing an array of healthy menu items, and increasing their accessibility to busy professionals who might not have time to sit down and eat. The Joe’s grab-and-go menu is a big part of this, and features salads, wraps, small plates, energy bars, protein drinks and more. You can order your grab-and-go grub through the MAC phone app or from the dining tab on the website if you’re on your laptop. It will be ready to go when you get there. “The goal was to get more choices onto the menu and make it easy to use while also trying to make it a better visual experience,” Ramos adds.

In Memoriam Elizabeth Lee “Ellie” Bartlett Oct. 3, 1994-Aug. 9, 2017 Elizabeth “Ellie” Bartlett of Portland died unexpectedly in a car accident Aug. 9, 2017. She was 22 years old. Ellie was born Oct. 3, 1994 in Silverton to Christine (Bauman) Walter and Kevin Bartlett. She lived her childhood in Salem, Tigard and Beaverton, before attending high school in Portland. Ellie lived her life to the fullest. She was an avid outdoorswoman and never missed an opportunity to climb one more trail, surf one more wave, or ski one more run. Whether climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro, helicoptering and hiking deep into the Canadian Rockies, or backpacking in Oregon and Idaho, she always found opportunities to embrace and enjoy the treasures of nature. Ellie also loved her snowboard, and snowboarded her way through Oregon, Washington, British Columbia, Idaho and Montana. After graduating from Riverdale High School, Ellie attended the Robert D. Clark Honors College at the University of Oregon, where she was a senior studying Human Physiology. Ellie was interested not only in health, but medicine around the world. In the summer of 2016 she spent six weeks in Ghana studying infectious disease and prenatal care in the developing world. Outside of her studies, you could find Ellie working at the University of Oregon’s Outdoor Program or volunteering for one of the many causes she was passionate about. This included leading the annual freshman orientation river cleanup, volunteering at PeaceHealth hospital in Eugene and working with endangered youth. She was particularly proud of the work she did with Oregon Adaptive Sports, where she built a program getting University of Oregon students up on the mountain to work with those with disabilities to ensure they, too, could enjoy the outdoors. Her life was full and she deeply touched the lives of everyone around her. Ellie is survived by her mother, Christine Walter; stepfather, Jeff Walter; father, Kevin Bartlett; stepmother, Stacie Bartlett; sister, Hannah Bartlett; and brothers, Gino Cicerone and Bradley Bartlett; as well as grandparents; many aunts; uncles; and cousins. In lieu of flowers, the family encourages donations to a Memorial Fund created in Ellie’s name (https://www.youcaring.com/ elliebartlett-903800). This fund will support Oregon Adaptive Sports, a nonprofit dedicated to providing life-changing outdoor experiences to those with disabilities who Ellie was very active in supporting.
Francine Gail Reingold July 21, 1949-June 12, 2017 Francine Gail Reingold passed away with her family by her side at her home in Portland on June 12, from ovarian cancer. She was 67. Francine was born in Eugene on July 21, 1949, to Louis and Mona Sherman, the second of three children. Francine grew up in Eugene and attended South Eugene High School, where she was an excellent student and tennis player. She graduated from the University of Oregon with a master’s degree in education. Her parents were leaders of the Jewish community in Eugene, and instilled in their daughter the values of education, philanthropy and religion, as well as the spirit of Tikkun Olam, the Jewish concept defined by acts of kindness and perfection or “repairing the world.” This led Francine to her long and successful teaching career, from which she retired in 2006. Francine was a second and third-grade classroom teacher and reading specialist, first in Springfield and then at Vose Elementary School in Beaverton. Francine met her husband, Jeff, in Eugene, where both were students at the University of Oregon. The couple was married June 14, 1970, at Temple Beth Israel in Eugene. After working and living in Eugene for 19 years, Francine and Jeff moved to Portland in 1989. Francine continued her teaching career and worked with her husband in their property management business, serving as secretary for the firm and more importantly, as a valued advisor. Francine gave birth to the couple’s two sons, Jonathan Asher in 1981, and Jacob Aaron in 1989. She was a caring and especially thoughtful mother and grandmother who delighted in spending quality time with her family. Francine enjoyed an active and athletic life. She was an excellent snow skier, basketball player and tennis player; was dedicated to maintaining her fitness both before and after her diagnosis; and was a regular in MAC group fitness classes. Not wanting to be defined by her disease, Francine worked hard to maintain her conditioning until her last few days. Additionally, Francine found time to learn to fly small planes, master the pottery wheel and visit many destinations. With her husband and family, Francine traveled to Europe, Israel, Hawaii, Cuba, Costa Rica and the Bahamas. She made annual trips to Palm Desert, the last of which was earlier this year, to enjoy the warm sun with family and friends. Many weekends were spent at her home in Gearhart, walking along the beach with Jeff and their two beloved long-haired Dachshunds. Continued on page 19 OCTOBER 2017

ADMINISTRATIVE In Memoriam Continued from page 17 Francine was blessed with the driest of wit and an engaging, warm smile. She loved puns and never hesitated to add another in the bad pun contests that always arose during family gatherings. Francine’s life was her family, her faith and her service to others. Her glowing presence and beautiful smile will forever be missed by everyone she touched. Francine is survived by her husband, Jeff; sons, Jonathan (Lauren) and Jacob; as well as her granddaughter, Zoey; and her brother, Mark Sherman (Lily) of Portland. In recognition of her desire to “repair the world,” gifts in Francine’s memory may be made to Libraries Reading Outreach in Clatsop County, which funds libraries and literacy programs in Clatsop County on the Oregon Coast (1131 Broadway Ave, Seaside, OR 97138) or to the Oregon Food Bank.
Madeline Marie Turin May 30, 1987-Aug. 14, 2017 Madeline Marie Turin passed away in the early morning hours of Monday, Aug. 14, 2017, surrounded by her mother, Jan, and brother, Sam. Madeline battled courageously against angiosarcoma for nearly three years.
Madeline graduated from Jesuit High School and attended Boston College, earning a degree in International Studies with a minor in Economics. Upon graduation from Boston College, Madeline accepted a position with the Department of Defense as a security specialist in Washington, D.C. She later joined Deloitte as an international consultant. Her work at Deloitte provided the opportunity to travel, work and live overseas in various countries, including South Sudan and the West Bank. Madeline truly wanted to affect change and to help people. She worked tirelessly and professionally gaining a lifetime of accomplishments and relationships well beyond her years. Madeline lived her life and battled her disease on her own terms. She was true to her warrior spirit and immense fortitude. She fought ruthlessly with undeniable spirit with an attitude of positivity that would not be deterred. In an effort to help others fighting this awful disease, she donated tumor tissue to science to help advance research and treatment for angiosarcoma, as well as participated in two clinical trials. Affirmation of her fighting spirit, she sought out specialists in this rare disease and received treatment at MD Anderson, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, OHSU, Good Samaritan and St. Vincent. Dr. Stacy Lewis was her partner in treatment at
St. Vincent. She trusted Madeline when she wanted to try the most aggressive treatment available and Madeline trusted her. They were a team in fighting. Madeline’s disease did nothing to dissuade her desire to travel. Her many adventures included riding elephants in Thailand, a safari in Africa, a visit to New Zealand and most recently a trip to Cuba. Madeline made sure she brought home treasures from each adventure, usually in some amazing art form. Madeline is survived by her mother, Jan; brother, Sam; grandmother, Paula Holzmann; trusted dogs, Rusty and Joey; her father; and other extended family. Her aunt, Pam Treece, and cousin, Hillary Oda, were her extended care and support team during sickness and in health. In lieu flowers, the family requests donations to the Madeline Turin Memorial Fund, www.crowdrise.com/o/en/team/ in-memory-of-madeline-turin

Where did you grow up? On the west coast of Vancouver Island, British Columbia, in a small town called Ucluelet.
Why Providence? Providence gave me a great opportunity and outstanding support to develop my adoptive T-cell immunotherapy program. We have very talented research and clinical teams, and together we’re dedicated to developing effective new therapies for patients with cancer.
What are your hobbies? I try to stay in shape with a little running and weight training. I also hope to get back into basketball, tennis and badminton soon.
What’s a great experience you’ve had at Providence? I’m honored to meet and get to know the people who provided so much philanthropic support toward developing my research lab and program. I’m also

thankful for the simple things such as the day-to-day lab experiments, along with interactions and scientific discussions with my colleagues.
Who were your mentors? Early on, my parents instilled in me the importance of being kind and working hard, two simple things that make this world a better place. My interest in science was piqued by my wonderful high school science teachers Alton Crane and Rosemary Lane. My love for immunology and research training was influenced by my graduate studies mentor, Dr. Brad Nelson. I was mentored at the National Cancer Institute by Dr. Steven A. Rosenberg, a pioneer and leader in cancer immunotherapy.
Why does philanthropy matter to your work? Philanthropy is essential to my work. Scientific experiments unfortunately can be expensive, especially when leading-edge technologies are needed to help develop the medicines of tomorrow. I would not be here without philanthropic support, and it warms my heart to know there are many kind and generous people helping us in our efforts to finish cancer.

Veterans’ Recognition Breakfast M
AC welcomes Bonnie Amos, former First Lady of the United States Marine Corps and Official Sponsor of the USS Portland to the Veterans’ Recognition Breakfast at 8 a.m. Wednesday, Nov. 8. “Marines will deploy a lot, often, and alone.” Bonnie Amos had heard this unofficial Marine Corps motto, but she had no idea how true it was when she married James Amos, a soon-to-be Marine fighter pilot, while he was in flight school in Pensacola, Florida, she had no idea how true it really was. Neither she nor Jim could anticipate what was ahead of them, including moving 31 times to 23 different duty stations. Jim becoming the 35th commandant of the United States Marine Corps was definitely not on their radar. Now, forty seven years later, Bonnie recounts their life together in the Marine Corps with fondness, stating, “We took each step with surprise and gratefulness. I am not sure either of us used the term ‘career Marine;’ he just loved what he was doing, and our kids were reasonably well adjusted, so we stuck with it,” Bonnie says. After arriving at their first duty station in Kane’ohe Bay, Hawaii, Jim soon was sent on his first deployment. It was a big one: 13 months. With no military programs for dependents at the time, Bonnie moved back to Florida to be with her family, taking the couple’s new baby with her while Jim was gone. New duty stations, countless deployments, and adjustments to new surroundings became their new reality. For many years, Bonnie did not engage much with spouses’ clubs, instead concentrating on church, work, and the children. But when Jim became a lieutenant colonel Continued on page 39

ACTIVITIES
Veterans Continued from page 37 and the commanding officer of an F-18 squadron, she knew she needed to get busy. She focused on helping dependents be self-sufficient, concentrating her efforts on enlisted programs, with the key being a strong volunteer network. In an era without computers, numbered letters and long-distance calling cards were the norm. Phone trees were critical in ensuring connectivity and disseminating information during work-ups and deployments, to keep panic out of everyone’s thought processes. The Marine Corps began to grow its own programs, but when Desert Storm/Shield hit, the Marine Corps realized it needed to focus more on family with increased transparency. When Jim was promoted to one-star general, they moved to Naples, Italy. Five days later, however, Jim was suddenly sent to the Kosovo bombing campaign – for almost nine months. Although in a glamorous villa, Bonnie again found herself alone and isolated. Jim soon became a four-star general and assistant commandant, and they headed to Washington, D.C. Then it happened. Jim was selected to become the 35th commandant of the Marine Corps, the first-ever aviator in a ground-centric branch of the military. This was never a goal of Jim’s nor Bonnie’s, as she maintains they merely “stumbled along” for the ride. Bonnie also received a new title: First Lady of the Marine Corps, a label that harks back to the 1930s. Bonnie’s humble, genuine approach earned her a fair amount of admirers, many experiencing some of the toughest times in their lives. “I hugged a lot of moms and spouses. The Marine Corps suffered a great many life-changing injuries and fatalities of America’s finest. It was a tough time in the Marine Corps with 14 years of war,” Bonnie says. She forged her own path as a champion for family programs. Bonnie built support network after support network, and was quickly on the radar of military dependents everywhere.
Bonnie Amos christened the PORTLAND, LPD 27 (a landing platform deck) in accordance with the grandest of traditions of the US Navy, in April 2016. Her official Facebook page had tens of thousands of followers who looked to her for leadership. They also logged on for “Monday Morning with Chesty,” the official Marine Corps bulldog mascot (named for legendary Marine Chesty Puller). She and Jim made an impressive couple! One of the other duties and privileges of being “First Lady” is as an official naval ship sponsor, a role steeped in tradition, pomp and circumstance. Bonnie christened the PORTLAND, LPD 27 (a landing platform deck), in April 2016. After its trial float, and “the crew learns to drive it,” the ship will sail from the Huntington-Ingalls shipyard in Pascagoula, Mississippi, to Portland by way of the Panama Canal and San Diego, California. Bonnie describes her role as bringing the PORTLAND to life and making it an official part of the United States Navy fleet. “My spirit will live with that ship as long as she sails,” she says. This “gig,” as she puts it, was her turn to be center stage, and she adds that, while packing for the christening in Pascagoula, Jim asked, “What if you splash champagne on my new suit?” Bonnie humorously
replied, “It doesn’t matter. You won’t be on the platform.” This was a new experience for him. After some protocol research with Huntington-Ingalls, Jim and Bonnie’s daughter and daughter-in-law successfully petitioned to have Jim on the platform. That day, Jim was “beaming.” “See,” he said, “I got to be on the platform.” PORTLAND will be commissioned USS PORTLAND (USS stands for United States Ship) on April 21, 2018 here in Portland. The commissioning will be open to the public. The USS PORTLAND will become an official part of the United States Navy at that ceremony. MAC welcomes Bonnie Amos as the keynote speaker at this year’s MAC Veterans’ Recognition Breakfast at 8 a.m. Wednesday, Nov. 8. Jim also speaks, once again proudly sharing a platform with his wife. MAC veterans are hosted; MAC members are $21 and guests are $25. Registration is required. Call Staige Davis Hodges in Events and Catering for more information: 503-517-7273. MEV465

BALLADEERS
The Balladeers brought their sunny dispositions to an immigration naturalization ceremony at District Court in Portland in July.
This summer, the Balladeers took on a new role: helping welcome naturalized immigrants to full U.S. citizenship. Balladeers bass singer Karl Wetzel spearheaded the group’s participation in the naturalization ceremonies by contacting the U.S. District Court of Oregon, and through it,
U.S. Magistrate Paul Papak, who presided over the two ceremonies in July at the Mark Hatfield Courthouse. The Balladeers sang the national anthem and America the Beautiful for both ceremonies, each of which honored approximately 75 new citizens. Judge Papak was thrilled to include the Balladeers, writing “Thank you, thank you.
A Beautiful Day To Be in Court
As you probably surmised, I really enjoy presiding over these naturalization ceremonies. Your participation turned a good program into a spectacular one.” In his reply to Judge Papak, Balladeers music director Dr. Scott Tuomi said “It was an honor to sing for our newly naturalized citizens and for you, too. What a treat – we shall never forget the experience!”

Evening Readers Investigate Future Family Follow along with the foibles of a future family in Lionel Shriver’s newest book, The Mandibles: A Family 2029-2047. This novel takes place in New York City 12 years from today. In this story of mental time travel, humans are the only living beings that can think about and plan for the distant future. The extended family faces issues that aren’t so unfamiliar in today’s world: homelessness, poverty, the rise of virtual currency, power blackouts, robots taking the place of humans, climate disruption leading to the demise of Arabica coffee beans, and the disappearance of family fortunes. Shriver has a trenchant sense of humor and wit as she describes each family member’s foibles and their unanticipated travails. All members are welcome to attend the discussion at 7 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 24. –Marcia Freed

Pink Collar Crime Pink-collar crime expert Kelly Paxton shares tips you can use to identify a pinkcollar criminal during a luncheon from 11:30 a.m.-1 p.m. Monday, Oct. 16. Coined by Kathleen Daly in the 1980s, the term “pink-collar crime” describes embezzlementtype crimes typically committed by women based on limited opportunity. In this context, women were more likely to have committed low-level crimes such as check kiting and bookkeeping fraud. Forty percent of women are now the primary breadwinners in American households. Unfortunately, with this progress comes statistics such as an increase in women embezzlers. In a 10-year period, womenembezzlement arrests rose by 40 percent, while male-embezzlement arrests only rose 2 percent. Paxton shows you what to look for in your business to make sure your most trusted
employee is not a pink-collar criminal. The cost is $26 for members and $29 for guests. MEV675

Keep Portland Healthy: How Public Health Impacts You 6:30-8 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 24 Oregon has significant health issues including, but not limited to, substance abuse, homelessness, mental health, obesity, cardiovascular disease and cancer. Challenges related to health access, education, background and economic opportunity further impact these issues, creating public health epidemics. While it may seem that these challenges only impact a select few, in reality, public health directly impacts the well-being of all Oregon residents. Portland native and Lincoln High School graduate Dr. David Bangsberg, the founding
dean of the new OHSU-PSU School of Public Health, defines the social determinants of health and explains how they impact various lifestyles. Drawing on his previous works at the Johns Hopkins Medical School in drug- and crime-ridden East Baltimore, Bangsberg became determined to end public health disparities worldwide, starting here in Oregon.

Naturopathy Can Ease Side Effects of a Serious Diagnosis A lthough Naturopathy may not be the first choice for treatment of certain diseases, such as breast cancer, it can be an important adjunct to therapy. Many cancer centers employ Naturopathic physicians to treat some of the side effects from radiation and chemotherapy. One of the most common side effects is nausea and low appetite. NDs frequently recommend teas and tinctures that contain peppermint and ginger to ease nausea. Digestive enzymes and probiotics can help with poor digestion and constipation. Another side effect of hormone therapy treatment is the weakening of bones. Vitamin D and Vitamin K supplementation, a diet rich in calcium, and appropriate weight bearing exercise can help prevent bone weakening. For estrogen-positive cancers, there is the fear of a relapse. The main treatment goal is to eliminate estrogen from being

Whole wheat bread provides our body with many micronutrients like B vitamins, vitamin E, magnesium, phosphorus, iron and zinc. Whole wheat bread also provides macronutrients like carbohydrates and fiber. The following is an easy bread to make during the winter months. This is a simple recipe, low in preservatives, and pairs well with homemade soups or stews.

produced and recirculated in the body. The liver is an organ that facilitates the removal of toxins, carcinogens, and hormones such as estrogen. NDs may recommend supplements that help in liver detoxification, which in turn improves estrogen metabolism. They also may recommend immunemodulating herbs/supplements in hopes of keeping cancer at bay. For instance, Calcium D’glucarate has been shown to prevent the initiation and promotion of cancer cells in animal and in vitro studies. A diagnosis of cancer is scary, and the treatment options can be overwhelming. My advice is to get a team of experts on your side to help explain treatment options, the potential side effects from each option, and the post-treatment recommendation for prevention of relapse. Any questions, concerns, or ideas? Don’t hesitate to reach out to me at lnelson@ themac.com. Live well. –Dr. Lindsey Nelson WM

Team Decathlon: Ten Events, One Team
Pick a teammate and get ready to have fun and test your athletic prowess during the Team Decathlon from Monday, Nov. 13 through Sunday, Nov. 19. The Team Decathlon introduces or reacquaints participants to some core decathlon events. It’s just a week long, and each participant only
competes in five events, so this is a great way to test the waters and see why the decathlon event is fun and challenging. Committees also can enter teams and compete with each other. Participants match up with a friend or a family member to create their team. Each team divides the following events to match their abilities or preferences: pull-ups, bench press, jump rope, 40-yard shuttle, mile run, stationary bike, 1,000-meter row, vertical jump, basketball free throws, 50-yard swim. Committees can use two to 10 members to compete. After picking your teammate, make sure to pick a great team name. There are lots of categories, so there are many opportunities to win, but the real winning is trying something new, finding a new reason to train year round and meeting new people. Don’t worry if you haven’t been training, the Exercise and Decathlon Committee members will help you learn the events. You will likely be amazed at what you can do and you will now have a baseline for continuous improvement. But warning, after you find how much you enjoy it, you might be tempted to do the Spring Decathlon events. No problem, you have five-plus months to get ready!

HANDBALL
MAC Stalwarts Take on National Tourney When it comes to handball, Multnomah Athletic Club members Ed Grossenbacher and David Steinberg are kind of a big deal. Between the two of them, they have nearly 75 national titles: 53 for Ed and 20 for David. In late June, the duo traveled to the Los Caballeros Sports Village in Fountain Valley, CA, for the USHA National FourWall Championships. Both competitors battled their way to the semi-finals in their respective age groups. Steinberg faced a full bracket of 16 in the 60-plus group, with several former titlists in the mix. He cruised through two matches without much serious opposition, using his power, sharp serves, and fist shots to keep his fellow competitors off balance or chasing balls into deep court. He met former champion and local favorite Jesse Pasos in the semifinals and pulled off a good win the in the second game, 21-15. Steinberg played point for point with Pasos during the tie-breaker, before Pasos pulled it out 11-7. Grossenbacher continued his crusade to break the national title record held by Max Lasskow. He doubled up by playing in both the Four-Wall singles and doubles events, reaching the singles semi-finals before losing a tough match in a tie-breaker. In doubles, he and his partner reached the finals, where they ran into the singles champ and his partner, also a former national champ. Their combined proved too much for Grossenbacher and his partner, who lost 21-8 and 21-9.

Pilates Class Preps Skiers For the Mountain The Ski & Snowboard Conditioning Workshop returns for its fourth year this fall. Over the course of eight weeks, instructor Mandee Pearson prepares mountain sports enthusiasts for the season. Participants use Pilates equipment to focus on strengthening the core, quads, hamstrings and glutes while improving balance and coordination. Classes are held at noon Sundays and at 4 p.m. Wednesdays, Oct. 29 through Dec. 20. Multnomah Athletic Club member Lisanne Butterfield notices significant improvements after taking the workshop. “The focus on building core strength reminds me that I am strong enough to protect the weaker parts of my body and rebound when I occasionally fall while skiing,” she says. “The smooth, precise, and flowing movements of Pilates empowers me to ski hard and embrace aging with more confidence and grace.” The workshop follows a circuit format and explores movement on three to four pieces of Pilates equipment. Attendees rotate in threeminute segments during the 55-minute class.
Pilates instructor Mandee Pearson offers a class to help skiers and snowboarders prepare for the upcoming season. The Pilates principles encourage postural alignment and the exercises build core strength that can increase participants’ speed down the mountain. Resulting increases in strength and awareness make it easier to stay centered over skis or a snowboard. Exercises on the spring-loaded Pilates equipment can be highly effective in training for mountain sports. Resisting the downward pressure can help mimic going into a turn on the mountain,
with inertia and gravity pushing powderhounds into the ground. The workshop utilizes a variety of equipment, including: Jumpboard: Horizontal jumping machine that trains for explosiveness while strengthening the core. Tower: Train to maintain an upright position while propelling down the mountain. Continued on page 70

Wrightson Cup Runs Over With Action
www.audibeaverton.com
70 | The Wınged M |
OCTOBER 2017
It’s unusual to see kids, teens, adults, and senior citizens playing together and against each other in a high-level sports tournament. That’s one of the elements that makes the Wrightson Cup such a singular event. This year’s tournament is at the Multnomah Athletic Club from Friday, Oct. 20 through Sunday, Oct. 22, on the Squash Courts. One of the West Coast’s preeminent doubles squash tournaments, the Wrightson Cup attracts the best doubles players from California, Oregon, Washington, and Canada, along with a sprinkling of East Coasters. Player partnerships go back years, and even decades. It also can be a compelling spectator sport, with a hard ball that players hit up to 140 mph to all corners of the court. Wine and beer is available to any MAC members in
ATHLETICS attendance. There also is pizza on Friday night and a buffet dinner Saturday. Also known as the Oregon State Squash Doubles Championships, the tournament dates back to the early 1970s. It honors the legacy of Tom Wrightson, an avid player and former MAC and U.S. Squash president, who brought national championship tournaments to the West Coast for the first time. Other MAC members have played a role in the tournament, too: Chuck McGinnis and Ron Ragen won it in 1972; Gary Johnson ran the event for more than a dozen years and helped to build it into an international event by hosting a six or more players from British Columbia in his home each year; and Tony Catalan Jr., Marjin Wall, Al McKeown and Mike Davis are all Wrightson Cup regulars. Players of all ages and abilities, and anyone interested in sponsoring the event, are encouraged to contact Tom Taylor at trt97229@gmail.com. Taylor is a MAC squash member, coach, and doubles player who is taking over leadership of the tournament from Chuck Williams, who ran it for the past eight years.

Team Brings Different Strokes to Summer Camp
Wrenn/Ferguson/Heath Group, UBS Financial Services, Inc. Member SIPC 5285 SW Meadows Rd., Suite 495, Lake Oswego, OR 97035
This year marked the first that the Multnomah Athletic Club Swim Team joined the regular Summer Camp schedule, and members say it went swimmingly. Instructors met with campers for two hours each morning to help them hone their strokes, play pool games, and even take their exercises onto dry land. Mondays meant a short swim test, and improvement in technique was measured by re-testing campers on Friday. The team reports that, “Having our camp associated with the Metro Summer League swim meets was a great success. For many swimmers, this was their first exposure to swimming at outside meets. We really are excited for what’s to come next as many campers have chosen to join Swim Team in the fall!” For more information on the Swim Team, see https://themac.com/group/pages/jraquatics, call 503-517-7500 or email Aquatics Manager Jason Amos at jamos@themac.com
