he weekend of April 23 and 24, MAC hosted the NACAD (National Association of Athletic Directors) Basketball Tournament, with over 360 athletes from all over the country, ranging in age from 21 to 80. Games were Janice Marquis played at MAC and at president Lincoln High School. MAC men’s and women’s seven teams, one in each division, won championships in AA, Golden Masters and Platinum divisions. MAC also hosted the 22nd annual Merritt Truax Memorial Northwest Shootout Banquet on Friday, April 15, the evening before Saturday’s games at Liberty High School. The competition featured the region’s top high school basketball athletes competing from Oregon and Washington. Hosted by the Multnomah Athletic Foundation, 40 top high school senior basketball athletes battled it out in this all-star challenge. The Oregon boys team was victorious, but there was not such good news for the girls team. The keynote speaker at the banquet was Dion C. Jordan, who inspired all the young athletes in the room with his message to strive for their greatest potential. Dennis Cusack, a past MAC trustee, did a marvelous job of emceeing the evening – for the 15th time.

No-Ivy League The MAC Ivy Pull took place in April in Washington Park, on a trail sponsored by MAC 25 years ago to help keep walkers and runners off the roads during the busy morning traffic commute. In conjunction with the efforts of Portland Parks and Recreation’s No Ivy League, 45 MAC members pulled mounds of ivy off segments of the trail. Working over three hours, MAC member volunteers included a wide range of ages. Twelve members of the Walking and Hiking Committee and many other volunteers from MACorps and Member Events contributed. MAC’s ongoing work with Parks and Recreation will hopefully lead to trail markers being repaired and replaced. The 125th Anniversary Committee celebrated the ivy pull as one of many MACReach events taking place this year.

Another anniversary On Sunday, April 24, I was honored to be asked to introduce the MAC Balladeers at their concert celebrating 75 years. I am embarrassed to say that I had never heard

the Balladeers perform before, I experienced a very special treat. From their inception on a salmon fishing trip to today, they have performed over 800 concerts in Portland and the region. They have performed as far north as Tacoma, Washington, as far west as Pendleton and as far south as Eugene. Led by Director Dr. Scott Tuomi, the 36 members of the chorus sang an array of songs that included Gilbert and Sullivan, Civil Warera music, Celtic tunes and opera drinking songs, concluding with The Battle Hymn of the Republic. It was a splendid concert!

Summer Camps This summer, there will be 248 different camp sessions representing 23 different departments in the club. Registration started in April and continues. Last year, MAC averaged over 200 registrations per day in the camps. The numbers are amazing – we had over 10,000 registrations in all! MAC staff went through the check-in and check-out process for the participants at least 20,000 times in a 10-week period. This summer, camps are offered for ages ranging from 2 to 17. The camps take place in a number of locations, including MAC private dining rooms, the Activities Classroom, Child Care, basketball courts, the climbing gym, tennis courts, the gymnastic arena, racquetball courts, squash courts, pools, dance studios, Lincoln High School and other sites throughout the region. Did you have any idea?

Bike Challenge The Bicycle Transportation Alliance’s (BTA) Bike More Challenge took place the entire month of May (National Bike Month). Member Events Manager Abby DenUyl served as the MAC team captain, tasked with getting as many MAC employees as possible on their bikes during the month of May. Employees could log their bike rides not just to MAC, but also to the store or anywhere for fun. The club even had a loaner bike for those who did not have a bike. While the total number of miles for this employee challenge is not available as of this writing, we know that many employees participated in a healthy and rewarding activity that may become a habit.

Did you know? Last year, MAC put on 20,824 athletic classes, clinics and sport programs, including: 26 programs, 1,378 competitive athletic events, 16,897 noncompetitive classes, and 24 workshops with a total of 168,504 participants. I say this is pretty amazing! WM june 2016

he world is a giant place, filled with so many wonderful treasures that no one can possibly experience all its greatness and all it has to offer. Recently Val and I had the opportunity to visit our daughter Madison in London Norm Rich to witness some of the General Manager things she experiences living her life overseas for her semester abroad. There was no big agenda to see every imaginable attraction in this large metropolis; our goal was to we enjoy what the locals do, eat where they do and spend time as a trio, rather than as our traditional family of five. We have had the opportunity to visit the Tower of London and the Crown Jewels from the tourist point of view in previous visits, but wanted to experience it differently this time around. While overseas, we had the opportunity to visit Prague as tourists and experience a smaller city rich in history, full of life and meaningful in many different ways. We witnessed the Prague Astronomical Clock, walked the Charles Bridge and toured the Prague Castle. Our adventure was fulfilling and left us wanting to experience more of our world. Lastly, Val and Madison returned to the United Kingdom to visit family in the north of England who live a life of simplicity, surrounded by family and the countryside they have known their entire lives. These experiences challenged me to think, what makes the world so enjoyable and so complex? What is the fascination with history and tradition that makes us want to travel, learning from firsthand experiences on remarkable journeys? All vacations must come to an end, and you return to reality knowing there can be so many wonderful things in returning home and getting back to our routines and lives. I thought about what makes home so special. Portland is rich in beauty, shares similar weather with London, has historical importance and a culture that makes living life more simple than living in giant cities, with all the hustle-bustle that surrounds them. While returning home, I thought about how important your club is to you and to me, and how much it has meant to us over your membership and my career. Some of the most memorable things about Oregon are Mount Hood, the Gorge, Crater Lake, our Ducks and Beavers, and Multnomah Athletic Club,

in no certain order. I’ve come to realize that every city and state has its cultural icons, traditions and favorite places. MAC fits into each one of these descriptions well, and makes our members even more proud to be part of this wonderful institution. We enjoy a tradition while celebrating 125 years near the city’s center, hold athletics in the highest regard, and have a social calendar that is second to none. We are a complicated organization that strives to make every member’s life better in many ways. We are an organization that includes 40-plus businesses under one roof. Finding the right balance among them all is what I pride myself on trying to do best with guidance from members, committees, our Trustees and staff.

Summer is here This month, we transition to summer schedules, camps and classes for our junior members, and proud parents are welcoming home their intermediate members returning from college. We anticipate beautiful summer sunsets for everyone to witness at Sunset Bistro and Splash, an experiment tried last summer to overwhelming member delight. Staff members have been readying themselves to make this year’s summer activities even more memorable. We are counting on you to participate and counting on the weather to cooperate. Some members are wondering why we do not open Sun Deck dining options earlier. The simple answers are we cannot predict weather patterns and history agrees with us. We also cannot adequately staff the Bistro until other facilities’ hours are reduced and renovation of the Sports Pub has been successfully completed. Staff and contractors are readying themselves to renovate the women’s locker room beginning in early July. As part of our 125th anniversary, MAC also plays host to City Athletic Club Managers in mid-July to welcome fellow club general managers and showcase the partnership between members and staff that makes MAC great. I am pleased to show my fellow managers, who last visited us 17 years ago, the progress we have made in making our club even better than before.

Website issues Lastly, we have stumbled with the website and are re-engaging to ensure a better outcome the next time. Look for more along the way as we evaluate where we are, where we need to be and how to successfully complete the journey. Thank you for your understanding! WM june 2016

n The Winter of Our Discontent, John Steibeck wrote, “In early June, the world of leaf and blade and flowers explodes, and every sunset is different.” Summer brings an explosion of activities to MAC as well. Ed Stoner Athletic Director It brings a new pace for all the changing programming that supports our time to relax, smell the roses and try something new. And, although the temperature already has been up in April and May this year, we look forward to even more of these golden days this summer. The Sun Deck already is open to lounge, contemplate and enjoy the passing clouds. Another way to take in the sunshine will be at Splash and Sunset Bistro, which will be returning to the Sun Deck and Social Pool beginning Monday, June 20. This will cause a shift in the pool schedules and the Water Fitness class schedule, while allowing more open-swim time for families, so visit themac. com for up-to-date schedules and information. When the forecast allows, Sunset Bistro will provide plenty of food options to enjoy for those always differing sunsets; and the Sun Deck Pool sliding doors will open after noon when the temperature is above 70 degrees. And, of course, summer camps return to MAC this month. Each week we will welcome roughly 300 children a day to enjoy a wide variety of offerings. As such, please remember that the E&C Gallery area will be crowded with children coming and going from camps each weekday beginning Monday, June 13. Some highlights include MAC-ing Around Town (formerly Kidsersize), Trail Blazer Meyers Leonard Basketball Camp, Fitness Camp for Teens and a special 125th Anniversary Camp including some forgotten sports from MAC’s history. We encourage campers to check in early (at least 20 minutes prior to camp start time), especially on Mondays, to avoid long lines and possible delays getting to camp on time. I look forward to seeing you around the club this month, as our programs heat up for summer. WM

FACES IN THE CLUB MAC Scholar Athlete and Grant High School senior Ella Donaghu wrapped up her high school career in May with three more state championships and a new Oregon high school record in the 1,500-meter run, making her one of the most decorated runners in state history. Donaghu won the 1,500- and 800-meter runs, and anchored the winning 4x400-meter relay at the OSAA 6A Championship Meet at Lane Community College in May. She has now won 10 state titles on the track to go along with three cross country titles. Donaghu also broke her own 1,500 record when she ran 4 minutes, 15.28 seconds during the Payton Jordan Invitational at Stanford in early May. The time is among the fastest in the country this year at the high school level. Donaghu will run for Stanford next fall.

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

Before moving to Portland in 2009, Wheeler created urban tours of historic neighborhoods for Footsteps of La Crosse, Wisconsin. He has developed and led 50 architectural tours in and around Portland, including tours for the Architectural Heritage Center and weekly tours for the Portland chapter of the American Institute of Architects.

For the second consecutive year, Dylan King faced his Grant teammate, Andrew Finkelman, in the OSAA 6A tennis final. This year, King came away the victor, cruising to a 6-4, 6-0 win over his friend. The game marked the first time two teammates from the state’s largest division played in back-to-back seasons in the boys final. King did not drop a set over four matches during the OSAA championships. King, a 6-foot-5 lefty and standout student, will play at Yale next year. He finished his high school career as the No. 1-ranked player in Oregon. King is a National Merit Finalist, an AP Scholar and Grant High School Valedictorian. He volunteers for the Portland After-school Tennis & Education program.

Jesuit senior Bess Waldram won her second consecutive OSAA 6A state title in May, beating Lincoln junior Emily Rees 7-5, 7-6 (3) in a match that was moved indoors due to weather. Waldram breezed through the state tournament last year, dropping just seven total games in five matches. Rees provided more of a challenge, but Waldram excelled under pressure. After jumping out to a three-game lead in the second set, she dropped four consecutive games. She came back and won in a tiebreaker, 7-3. Waldram also played in the state finals her freshman year, but was hampered by injuries, which also impacted her sophomore season. Now she is ranked No. 1 in Oregon, and will play tennis at Notre Dame next year. june 2016

MAC dancer Haley Kekow, 14, received a first-place teen solo award at the New York City Dance Alliance regional competition in Vancouver, Wash. The award is unprecedented for MAC dancers at this challenging NYCDA regional competition. Kekow continued to impress at the JUMP Regional Competition at the Oregon Convention Center in March, when she received a high gold for her solo. She also won a Best Dancer National Scholarship at the regional competition, qualifying her to compete for the teen title at the national level. Kekow received a first runner-up for her Teen Contemporary Solo at the American Dance Awards regional competition, and placed third overall for all solos age 13 and higher.

Sun Deck Dining Returns A fter an incredibly successful season last year, MAC is excited to reopen both the Sunset Bistro and Splash on the Sun Deck. MAC’s al fresco dining option is the ideal location to enjoy Portland’s magnificent summers, either with the family in Splash or with a cocktail at the bar in the Sunset Bistro. Both spaces offer an exclusive outdoor dining experience and have been retooled this summer to provide more offerings and elevated service. The Sunset Bistro and Splash are open beginning Monday, June 20, for lunch and dinner, seven days a week. Service

begins at noon and ends at 9 p.m. daily. The hours of operation are “weather permitting.” Sunset Bistro and Splash open when the forecasted weather is 70 degrees and warmer with less than 30 percent chance of rain. This decision is made the night before and communicated via theMAC.com and the Splash hotline at 503-517-6635. Due to the increased popularity and extended hours of the Sunset Bistro, the Men’s Bar is closed for lunches this summer and only opens for dinner Thursday, Friday and Saturday. This begins Monday, June 20, in conjunction with the Sunset Bistro reopening.

Staff Who can you expect to see serving great food and delicious cocktails this summer? The entire Men’s Bar staff runs the Sunset Bistro and Splash and looks forward to providing exceptional service.

Reservations The Sunset Bistro does not take reservations, and guests are seated on a firstcome, first-served basis. A host manages a waitlist and alerts you when your table is ready. WM

he Sunset Bistro and Splash reopen on June 20, the first day of summer. We would like to open earlier, as many members have asked. However, this project is more complex than in the last several years. When Sunset Cameron Bistro was expanded McMurry and improved last food and beverage year, the main kitchen director was under renovation, allowing use of all the kitchen equipment, refrigeration and staff. The past has also given us a more clear direction of the infrastructure needs to better serve the members and maintain the highest standards. Some of the additions needed to support the kitchen and service staff of Sunset Bistro and Splash include the addition of running water, and additional power and data lines. Many of the behind-the-scenes projects require inspections to meet code and be in line with neighborhood regulations. In addition, we need to resurface the upper deck to protect the integrity of the building. Coordinating the projects needed to assure Sunset Bistro and Splash meet operating needs, codes and regulations requires a great deal of internal resources. While coordinating Sunset Bistro and Splash infrastructure improvements, the Facilities Department will be overseeing 70 capital projects this year. Many of the projects do not have general contractors involved. Internal staff completes most of the infrastructure upgrades and replacements for Sunset Bistro and Splash. Scheduling staff to properly oversee the many ongoing maintenance and capital projects is a challenge, and some projects take a bit longer than we would all like. Getting Sunset Bistro and Splash ready for the summer is a priority for the team, while staying within the allotted funds allocated for these venues. In the end, we believe the wait will be well worth it. The improvements in the environment for members and the functionality for staff will make for a great Sunset Bistro and Splash experience this summer. Taking the extra time needed to do it right will help us with the ability to grow and improve the outdoor venues for years to come. Thank you for your support and patience. WM

Juniors Must Treat the Club with Respect

Good people make great lawyers. Richard Yugler Business Litigation

Our philosophy is simple: hire and keep the best lawyers around. Like Rick Yugler, just one of our talented and tenacious lawyers. Sure, he’s past president of the Oregon State Bar and Oregon Trial Lawyers Association, but being a great litigator takes more than professional acclaim. It requires understanding risks and rewards, costs and benefits, knowing how litigation impacts business, and having the skill to go the distance at trial. That’s why clients who want to succeed turn to us. Simply put, we know litigation. 503.224.4100

One of the great things about being a junior member is being able to explore MAC and, of course, having fun and hanging out with friends. Our parents and other members expect us to be well behaved, so there really aren’t all that many specific limits or rules for juniors. None of us want that to change. Have you ever noticed that when you don’t get your homework or chores done, and your parents give a lot less slack? That is what is about to happen to juniors at MAC. We are on the verge of being more closely monitored and having more limits and rules. And most of us don’t want or need that to happen.

If we are going to keep the freedom we have around MAC, we just need to do one easy thing: be respectful... MAC has already had to add a second employee to monitor us near the Junior Lounge. We don’t want this great hangout spot to feel like it’s not ours anymore. The Junior Lounge is for us, and we can make sure it stays that way instead of it being in a place where we can’t be ourselves and have fun. As many juniors are aware, there have been a number of incidents lately which have caused management at MAC to consider implementing stricter rules and monitoring for all of us. If we are going to keep the freedom we have around MAC, we just need to do one easy thing: be respectful – of employees, of the building (clean up after yourself), and of the rules (sign your guests in!). With these simple things we can repair our reputation at the club. Let’s support each other in doing what we need to do. If we can, then the need to implement stricter supervision and limits on juniors will go away and we will gain back trust as responsible members of the club and keep the freedoms we love. We can keep MAC fun while following club rules. As Josie Henderson, Member Services Director, said, “The majority of juniors at MAC are well-behaved, respectful and good members, and it’s unfortunate and unfair that negative incidents tend to reflect poorly on all juniors.” Many of us spend a lot of time at the club. We get very comfortable here and cut corners or bend rules sometimes. This is our wake-up call that our privileges and freedoms are on thin ice. This is our club and it’s up to us to make sure it stays the way we like it. This column was submitted by two junior members who wish to remain anonymous. WM

MAC Voulunteer Heroes by Kirsten Leonard, MACREACH On a recent sunny day, an energetic, warm, inquiring, uberintelligent whirlwind settled next to me, ready to share the family, friends and 11 boards that are her current world. Jenny Kim is, in a word, amazing, and her civic engagement extends from support of Oregon’s first-ever North Korean refugee to providing pro bono business strategy and project management skills to small non-profits. Kim is particularly passionate as she discusses international adoption issues, and I learned that Portland is home to a great number of adoptees who originally came through Eugene’s Holt International. Kim works on the rights of these long ago babies, many

of whom hailed from South and Central America, Russia, Vietnam and China. Her corporate background brings more efficiencies and new processes to aid those seeking connection with their country of origin. While Portland’s World Affairs Council and Wilsonville’s Korean War Memorial Association benefit from Kim’s sensitivity and ability to host dignitaries from far corners, I was riveted to learn of her position as a council member on the International Unification Advisory Council, which focuses on the galvanizing issues in North Korea. Kim’s 7- and 9-year-old daughters have a role model with a fully global perspective. So imagine my appreciation when Kim brings our conversation right back to her love of Portland: its culture, vibe and stunning environment. After noting that those in our city give greatly of their time, energy and financial resources, she concluded that the MAC is a microcosm of that generous spirit. Kim joins MACREACH in being proud of all that our club accomplishes and brings to our community.

In Memoriam Alan Hoogs Jan. 9, 1933- April 11, 2016 Senior preferred member Alan Hoogs died April 11. He was 83. Alan was a lifelong Oregonian and a proud Grant High and University of Oregon alumni, majoring in architecture. He was always creating innovative solutions with design, ranging from private homes to beach homes to his nationally recognized mausoleums. Alan was preceded in death by his brothers Jim and Jerry, sister Barbara, and his son Sam. He is survived by his wife of nearly 40 years, daughters Stacy O’Connell and Julie Starkey, daughter and son-in-law Cathy Sue and Roger Anunsen, and son-in-law Kip Ward and Katrica Ward as well as grandchildren Zachary Landry (Kayla), John O’Connell, Ash Anunsen (Shannon), Tory Ward, Alex Ward, Patrick Ward and great grandchild Sean Landry. Alan loved his wife Lee, his family, everything about the game of tennis, the Golden Age of Hollywood, his 1967 Jaguar, the challenges of cutting-edge architecture and the memories of his grandfather, Samuel Cobb, including mowing the lawn at his family’s historic Mt. Tabor home. His roots ran deep in the Grant/Hollywood district, where he was reared and where he and Lee shared many wonderful years. Alan captured the hearts of many in his dearly loved neighborhood. Long-time architecture partner, Avi Pradhan, shared that Alan especially loved his early beach home designs and was proud of his many West Hills private homes, and his work on the World Forestry Center. Alan was widely recognized for his innovative mausoleum designs and saw his designs become an important part of the Woodlawn Cemetery in New York City, the Resurrection Garden near Yale University, Banque de neige (Bank of Snow) in Montréal and approximately 1,000 more locations. His enthusiasm for tennis started in high school. He was an excellent tennis player, winning a masters title at MAC where he was a fixture on the men’s teams for many years. His interest in movies began at the Hollywood Theater and was ignited in 1953 when a 20-year-old Alan met Marilyn Monroe at the Portland Airport when she, Robert Mitchum and Rory Calhoun changed planes on the way to the filming of River of No Return. Alan was a friend to animals especially Sugar, his friend and companion of 20 years to whom he gave an extra nine or more lives through his dedicated care. Alan would not have been surprised to learn that his Sugar gently passed away on April 12, 2016.

Willard Daniel Rowland

Ronald Weir Peterson

April 15, 1914- March 29, 2016 Honorary life member Willard D. Rowland, M.D., a pioneer in Oregon plastic and reconstructive surgery, died March 29, 2016, at home in Lake Oswego, two weeks short of his 102nd birthday. Dr. Rowland was born April 15, 1914, in Greenville, Ill., the son of Frank Taylor and Maybelle Anna (Grigg) Rowland. He attended Greenville College and then Washington University in St. Louis, Mo., where after completing his undergraduate studies, he attended medical school. He was a fellow at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn., and then served in the burns and reconstructive surgery division of the U.S. Naval hospital in Bethesda, Md., during World War II. After the war, he helped open the plastic surgery unit at the Ochsner Clinic in New Orleans, developing new emphases in children’s reconstruction. In the late 1940s, he moved to Portland to establish one of the first plastic surgery practices in the Pacific Northwest, where his work focused increasingly on children with congenital deformities, burns and other traumas. He was associated with Good Samaritan, St. Vincent, Emanuel and Providence hospitals, and he taught at Oregon Health Sciences University. In the mid-1960s, he opened a second practice at the Eisenhower Medical Center in Palm Springs, Calif., although he continued to see patients in Portland and only retired in 1989 at the age of 75. In the late 1990s, he returned full time to Oregon, establishing residence at the Mary’s Woods at Marylhurst Retirement Community in Lake Oswego, where he lived until his passing. Will, as he was widely known, had been an Eagle Scout at age 15, and was an outstanding student and eager reader. He was quietly erudite, engaging and gregarious, and he always told a good story. He was married three times, first to Mary Saugrain Pettus, with whom he had five children, and later to Barbara Wagstaff and Elynda Knauft. Dr. Rowland was an avid fisherman, skier and traveler.. He also was a member of the University Club, MAC and Waverley Country Club, and the Seven Lakes and Springs Country Clubs in Palm Springs. He was predeceased by his parents; brother, James K. Rowland; and wives, Mary and Elynda. He is survived by his children, Willard Wick D. Rowland Jr. (Susan Tannenbaum), Boulder, Colo., Martha S. Rowland (Neil Marquis), Neskowin, Charles P. P. Rowland (Cathy), Lake Oswego, Anthony T. Rowland (Dolores), Ft. Collins, Colo., and Thomas H. Rowland (Pat Harada), Wilmette, Ill.; 10 grandchildren; and 10 great-grandchildren.

March 2, 1927-Feb. 14, 2016 Senior Family member Ronald Peterson slipped away quietly in the middle of the night from complications after a heart attack on Feb. 14. He was 88. Ron was born March 2, 1927, to Janet and Carl Peterson. He graduated from Ainsworth grade school and Lincoln High School. He attended the University of Oregon for his freshman year, and then enlisted in the U.S. Army in February of 1945. He served in Kodiak, Alaska, and was honorably discharged in December of 1946 with the rank of sergeant. He returned to the University of Oregon in January of 1947, and graduated in June of 1949 with a degree in accounting. He was a member of the Chi Psi Fraternity. Ron became a CPA in 1951, and worked for Ernst & Ernst (now Ernst and Young.) He then became property manager for familyowned apartment buildings. He acquired other buildings, including the Portland Towers and the Ione Plaza. He and his wife, Patricia, started Peterson Properties, a Portland-based management company. More recently, they formed Security Investment. Ron was president of downtown Rotary and also district governor of Rotary International, district 5100. Ron was a member of the Episcopal Church and served as treasurer of St. Bartholomew’s Church for eight years, for Trinity Cathedral for seven years and also for St. Helens Hall. He was very supportive of the church’s programs. He has a fund there to help those in need. Ron supported many charities: Red Cross, Oregon Food Bank, USO, Union Gospel Mission, Oregon Zoo, Albertina Kerr, Paralyzed Veterans of America, Oregon Humane Society and Providence St. Vincent Medical Center. He was extremely proud of his relationship with Providence St. Vincent Medical Foundation, where he served and was a supporter since 1969. He was one of the founders of the foundation and became a foundation trustee in 1985, and was honored as a lifetime trustee. He also served on the finance committee of the foundation board, and offered advice on investment opportunities. Ron contributed to virtually every fundraising campaign through the years. In 2006, Ron and Patricia created the Peterson Fund in the St. Vincent’s Foundation to assist older adults who are in need. A seventh floor medicine unit is dedicated to them. In 1972, Ron was a member of the U.S. Assay Commission. At the University of Oregon, Ron is in the Hall of Fame as a Continued on page 23 june 2016

Transportation

Conserve and Save, Take MAX to MAC

T

he 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 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, At Your Service 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 as parking alerts on the front page of the club’s website. At Your Service 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 Southwest 18th and Salmon Street, 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.

The Women’s Locker Room renovation includes plans to add a whirlpool area illustrated in this rendering. Opposite, temporary locker room facilities on the subbasement are available for use during the remodel.

Basement Level Women’s Locker Room Renovation Begins Friday, July 1 Closure and Cleanout of T Locker Contents

he information contained in this and past updates are logged on the website. Members can access that information by searching “women’s locker room” on the website or by simply navigating to themac.com/group/pages/ womens-locker-room Members can continue to provide input by emailing: WLR-Feedback@themac.com

Plan Approved The board approved funding at its April 27 meeting for the basement level Women’s Locker Room renovation.

Renovated Layout The approved locker room floor plan is posted on the bulletin board as well as online by following the link above.

june 2016

The locker room will be closed starting Friday, July 1. Members will need to clear out their lockers before the locker room closes at 11 p.m. on Thursday, June 30. Any items found to be remaining in lockers will be bagged, tagged, and moved to offsite storage. To ensure against lost items members should make every effort to remove their personal belongings. These items will not be readily accessible for members and retrieval will be done on a scheduled basis. A retrieval schedule has not been set yet.

Temporary Facilities The subbasement Women’s Locker Room will be the central facility available

to women. Due to its limited size, other facilities on the sub-basement level will be converted to accommodate basic locker room amenity needs. Following is the plan: • There are currently approximately 200 designated day use lockers in the subbasement Women’s Locker Room.

• More day use lockers will be repurposed when the locker room closes and will be placed in the subbasement hallway. • Both family changing rooms on the subbasement level will be converted to women only facilities during the renovation. - The West Pool shower rooms on the subbasement level will be available for family changing.


ADMINISTRATIVE The board approved funding at its April 27 meeting for the basement level Women’s Locker Room renovation. Members are in overwhelming support for a whirlpool in the women’s locker room. The women’s shower room has changing areas in the shower stalls. Privacy screens will be installed in the men’s changing room to make it family friendly. • The equipment in the team weight training room will be removed to accommodate needed capacity for beauty/amenity bar stations. • Coffee and tea service will not be available and will be suspended during the renovation.

Day Use Lockers There should be plenty of lockers available on the subbasement level to meet day use needs. Members will need to bring their own locks. Removal of locks and contents when not in use will be essential to ensure lockers are available for everyone to use.

Locker Assignment Plan Based on the feedback received: • Lockers will be assigned. • Attempt will be made to maintain upper or lower locker assignment. • Assignments will be done with an attempt to maintain current locker groupings. - Because lines have to be drawn somewhere, members can expect that while those on one side of them may be the same, they may have new neighbors on their other side. • Most members will find their new lockers will be in the general locker location (e.g., east, west center). There are a couple of exceptions: - Those in the cubby area will be displaced due to the relocation of the steam room and sauna. Cubby renters will be transitioned into half size lockers. - The day use locker area will move due to the relocation of showers.

- Day lockers will be located near the west end entry and central to the steam room, sauna, whirlpool, and the west end showers. -There will also be full height, narrow lockers available for longer garments. These will be centrally located near the entry to the lounge. • Attempt will be made to try to locate groupings of lockers as they are currently located either near or away from amenity bars and showers. - Please understand the pieces will not fit perfectly and some members will not have their same proximity. - Because the city could mandate changes to the plan during the permitting process, locker assignments will not be finalized until mid-July at the earliest.

One week in Cuba gave us only a glimpse into a country that is filled with music and a joy for living!” This Experience Cuba! program is sponsored by MAC and Customized Journeys. Customized Journeys has been issued a specific license by the Department of the Treasury, Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), which authorizes registered guests of the program to visit Cuba legally so that your travel is fully authorized.

MAC’s Annual Dance Recital returns to the Newmark Theatre in June. This is your chance to see the dancers who have been earning accolades at regional and national competitions throughout the year. MAC’s Annual Dance Recital is at 4 p.m. Sunday, June 5, at the Newmark Theatre, and is free to members and guests. This year’s recital features the club’s 125th anniversary theme, with music and dance styles from past eras. Performers include the MAC’s competitive dancers, as well as the recreational dance classes. The annual recital, held in an enjoyable venue with professional sound, lighting and staging, is the culmination of the MAC dance year.

Competitive Dance The 2015-16 MAC competitive dancers have reorganized with new energy and focus following the graduation of five longtime Company members. The MAC competitive dancers are now organized in three groups: Company, Junior Company, and the newly formed Crew Dancers. The Company and Junior Company perform ballet, jazz and contemporary dances. The Crew dancers perform hip hop, tap and breakdancing. The MAC Company Dancers excelled at their first competition of the season, the New York City Dance Alliance (NYCDA) regional competition in January Vancouver, Washinton. The Company performed five dances, receiving three platinum awards, one high gold award, and one gold award. Haley Kekow, 14, received a first-place teen solo award, which is unprecedented for MAC dancers at this challenging NYCDA regional competition. The weekend also included two days of workshop classes in a variety of styles, taught by talented, well-known national instructors. Kekow’s first-place solo award at NYCDA qualified her for a full scholarship to an additional regional convention in Denver in February, where she was awarded an Outstanding Dancer NYCDA Scholarship. This entitles her to compete for the title of National Teen Dancer in New York City at the national competition, which the Company will attend in July.

The next regional contest, the JUMP Regional Competition, was held at the Oregon Convention Center in March. This is the largest competition in the region, with over 1,000 highly qualified participants. This competition also requires two days of demanding workshops. Kekow received a high gold for her teen solo, and the Company’s four group dances each received gold awards. The Junior Company was particularly proud of their first gold award for their group jazz entry. Kekow also won a Best Dancer National Scholarship at the JUMP regional competition in March, again qualifying her to compete for the teen title at the national level. Lilly Mildenberger earned a JUMP regional hip hop scholarship, and Junior Company member Ava Delaney earned a JUMP regional ballet scholarship. The next regional competition, the American Dance Awards, was held in April. The Crew dancers entered their first-ever competition, earning ultimate gold and gold scores for their energetic hip hop and breakdancing entries. The Company also received ultimate gold and gold scores for their dance entries. Kekow received a first runner-up for her Teen Contemporary Solo at the American Dance Awards regional competition, and placed third overall for all solos age 13 and higher. The future looks bright for Kekow and all of these young dancers. The Company and Crew were invited once again to perform as guest artists with Northwest Dance Theatre in their spring gala held at PCC Sylvania in April, for a paying audience. This is an excellent opportunity for our dancers to perform in a noncompetitive environment that provides an example of life in the professional dance world. The Company Dancers have one remaining regional competition before attending the NYCDA National competition, with workshops, in New York City in July. This national competition is a highlight of the year because New York City offers unparalleled dance and theater offerings. Dancers are inspired, and memories are made whenever the MAC dancers experience the Big Apple. WM

Another Successful Season for Swimmers S

hort-course season starts in September and spans 25 weeks, culminating with championship meets starting in February through late March. Before the season started, MAC’s team goal was to better the 2014-15 season, which was MAC’s best-ever team performance with 128,400 USA Swimming Virtual Club Score Points. Last season, we crushed the previous benchmark by over 8,000 points, and moved up 26 places nationally, 10 ranks regionally, and one in Oregon swimming. MAC’s team of 150 members has 76 state qualifiers, 35 AG regional qualifiers, 13 senior sectional qualifiers, and three summer junior national qualifiers. Congratulations, swimmers, parents and coaches!

10-and-under Championships Sydney Wilson took first place in the 100 backstroke, third in 50 back, fourth in 200 freestyle, sixth in 100 free, and seventh in 50 free. Graham Inman placed second in the 100 butterfly, third in the 50 fly, fourth in 100 back, fifth in 200 free, and eighth in the 50 free. We had three other girls qualify for state: Carmen Blank, Gigi Abernethy and Kaeli Chapman. We swam in both the 200 free and 200 individual medley relays. It was a great experience for all our 10-and-under swimmers.

11-14 Championships highlights MAC’s third-place finish at state was highlighted by champions Matthias Kreutzer, 11, high point winner in his age group, winning first place in all of his six individual events – 50 back, free and fly, 100 back and free, and 200 free. Other individual state champions included Kevin Keil, 14, 200 back, fly and 400 IM; Beau Lonnquist, 12, 50 and 100 breaststroke; Cody Soo, 13, 200 back; and Khai Tran, 100 IM. Emma Matous placed second in 200 IM. See team records below for those

in the 50 breast. Cody Soo placed second in the 100 free, third in the 50 free, fifth in the 200 free and 100 fly, and sixth in the 200 IM. Kevin Keil placed second in 100 and 200 back, third in the 200 IM and 200 back, and sixth in 100 breast. Sectionals was a week early this year and just 10 days after the 11-14 state championships, but the athletes rallied and put their best efforts forward.

Senior sectionals

Tristan Furnary, center, leaves as one of MAC’s most succesful swimmers. athletes who set new club records. The age-group program has consistently placed in the top five in Oregon, even though the team only ranks 10th in numbers entered in the competition.

OSI Senior Championships For many athletes this was a tune-up for senior sectionals two weeks later. For others, it was the last meet of the short-course season. Those who ended their season included Donald Holman, with personal best times in six events, Laurel Kemp, with one best time, Sophia Kemp, with three best times, Zaidie Long, one best time, Garrett Smith, with four best times, and Claire Westlake, with three improved times. Individual champions included: Tyler Soo in the 50 free, and Tristan Furnary in the 100 breaststroke.

Age Group sectionals MAC finished 18th out of 125 teams at age group sectionals. MAC took 21 athletes to compete in the four-day event. Sydney Wilson placed seventh in 200 free and eighth in 100 back; Khai Tran placed second in the 200 free, third in the 50 free, fourth in 200 breast and 100 free, and fifth

MAC team finished 11th at the senior sectional meet. The coaching staff wants to acknowledge fine performances by both girls and boys relay teams. The girls placed the 16th in the 200 medley, and the boys fifth in the 800 free, and eighth in the 400 free. Without exception, swimmers put forth their best efforts for the team. Elise Kreutzer, Rob Mead and Nate McFaul deserve a special mention: they just recently aged up and competed in the open division for the first time. All of them got second swims in the finals in their best events, while swimming near the best or best time just to qualify. This is tough to do, but they did a very good job in this transition. Kreutzer placed seventh in 50 free in a big final; McFaul won two consolation finals in the 200 free and 400 free; and Mead won his heat in 100 backstroke. New MAC records have been set by Sidney Wilson (50 and 100 back, Emma Matous (50 breast), Nate McFaul (200 fly team record), Kevin Keil (100, 200 breast, 200 IM 400 IM), Elise Kreutzer (Team record 50 free, and Open record), Brynne O’Shea (Team record and Open Record 200 back) New entries into MAC All-Time Top 5 include: Sara Hsu, Graham Inman, Matthias Kreutzer, Beau Lonnquist, Khai Tran, Tyler Soo, Eli Rheingold, Tristan Furnary, Tyler Soo, Van Mathias and Tristan Furnary.

Pilates

CoreAlign Method Works for Every Body Innovative system focuses on common movements to build strength, balance and fitness

C

oreAlign – have you ever heard of it? CoreAlign is a unique piece of equipment and training method designed to awaken natural, functional movement with resistance from a variety of directions. It is suitable for every body. The CoreAlign was created by Jonathan Hoffman, a physical therapist with a graduate diploma in Manipulative Therapy, to upgrade physical ability by focusing on posture, dynamic alignment, standing exercises and functional, full-body movement patterns. Hoffman discovered that once his physical therapy patients who were in the rehabilitation process finished their course of treatment, they were looking for a more fitness-focused session to enhance the gains they had experienced. In 2004 he began offering regular classes using the CoreAlign method. CoreAlign is a Pilates-based movement method in that it uses many of the same principals in terms of moving from your core and using stability, mobility and strengthening as its core foundations. The beauty of this method is that it is done mostly standing. The CoreAlign method helps clients to improve core control, posture, strength, flexibility, balance and coordination. The first commercially available CoreAlign unit became available in 2010, and with it, the launch of the CoreAlign education program. While CoreAlign has been available for some time in

the Pilates Studio, and several of the Pilates teachers have been incorporating it into their private sessions, most of the Pilates staff, along with several instructors in yoga and fitness are now trained to teach members how to use this fantastic training method and piece of equipment. As teachers of the method, MAC instructors are conscious to place equal importance on all areas of the body – no one area or movement system is more important than any other. When training on the CoreAlign, instructors involve all the movement components working in harmony, while placing extra focus on the weakest links – everyone has them! MAC’s instructors help clients simulate movement with a certain ratio of strength, relaxation, stretch and control. The brilliance of this method is that exercises stimulate situations that are part of everyday living, such as walking, bending, leaning or movement specific to sports. Currently, the following instructors are available to schedule private and duet sessions on the CoreAlign: Gina Frabotta, Rebecca Schefstrom, Mandee Pearson, Talia Laird, Sandy McQueen, Cristi Dillon, Dena Rasmussen, Jean Leavenworth, Lisa Buchmiller and Kimmie Brunke. Contact Pilates Supervisor Dena Rasmussen to schedule a session on the CoreAlgin at drasmussen@themac.com or 503-5177550. WM

Pelham Tournament draws a crowd The racquetball community and MAC once again opened up the courts for a memorial tournament for fallen soldier John Pelham.

Your team’s adventurous shots will be exploring the topography and pin-placements of Chehalem Glenn Golf Course in Newberg. The cost of the event includes dinner afterward. Please register online at theMAC.com. Feel free to contact members of the Golf Committee with questions. Thank you to the 100-plus members who attended the Annual First-Tee event in April in the Ballroom, where 14 golf vendors from around the state were on hand. Each vendor provided a lovely door prize, which, unfortunately, this writer did not win. –Brett Hyland

How to Tackle the Steep Side Hill Lie Have you ever felt that awkward stance where the ball is positioned at an uncomfortable distance above or below your feet and your traditional swing may just not quite feel right? Next time you are in this position on the golf course, try this tip. Think of the large hills on the course as a staircase. Your ball on a stair that is a different height from the stair your feet are on. In order to make great contact, your swing path will swing more upright instead of around your body. If your swing goes around, it will run into a “stair,” and thus the desired shot will not be achieved. Play the steep hills on the course as stairs and gain confidence with this challenging lie. Make sure to check the MAC Golf schedule for opportunities to practice your game and play alongside other MAC members. This month’s activities include the annual MAC Golf All Committee Scramble (Chehalem Glenn) as well as Bogeys & Brews (9-hole casual events on select Friday afternoons). –Robyn Lorain Continued on page 60

The club’s handball stalwarts used the MAC Doubles Tournament to prep for the upcoming Oregon State Doubles Championships in Salem. Sixteen doubles teams played in three categories: the Open, A and B classes. The competition was outstanding – at least half of the matches went into tie-breaker games. Frank Romanaggi and Bob Gill teamed up to win the B class over the determined team of lefty Bob Evenson and Mike Steele. Romanaggi’s power serves and ceiling shots, combined with Gill’s excellent front court cut-off game, helped them prevail over Evenson and Steele, who won the first game but couldn’t sustain the winning effort in the tie-breaker. Greg Howell lost his scheduled partner to a hip injury but cobbled together substitute partners Ed Grossenbacher and Todd Zilbert to pull out the A class win in a demanding round-robin format. Ron (Radar) Shoquist and Daryl Zarosinski proved to be a good pair, blending Radar’s cagey experience with Daryl’s athletic hustle to pull out second place, with only one tie-breaker winning point separating them from the third place finishers, Charles Dean and Bill Flowers. Six Open teams played, with byes for the first and second seeds, who nevertheless met in the final match. “Youngsters” Josh Bateman and Stephen Stenberg parlayed their speed, agility and excellent power into a well-earned third-place finish over veterans David Steinberg and Dave Delaney. In the Open final match, Aaron Garner and Conor Casey put together a complete game plan with outstanding defensive shots and well-executed kill shots to defeat the Steele brothers, Matt and Sean, who nevertheless


Athletics showed their own brand of power handball and tremendous efforts to dig balls off the floor that had all but died. With four of the best young players in the Pacific northwest, this was a fantastic match that anyone who admires demanding athletic challenges would have loved to watch – complete ambidexterity by all four, fist shots that rattled around to hit all the walls, eye-popping velocity, and enough English on the ball to make some shots break off a straight line by two feet or more.

Schell Competes with Nation’s Best One of MAC Karate’s most recent black belt recipients, Maya Schell, was invited to try out for the U.S. National Team thanks to her excellent scores at Nationals in 2015. She traveled to the Olympic Training Campus in Colorado Springs in January to compete for a place to represent the U.S. at Worlds in Austria in October 2016. Schell competed against the highestlevel athletes from all over the country, with the majority coming from California and New York. This level of competition was a first for Schell, although she competes regularly in West Coast tournaments and has successfully represented MAC at Nationals many times. Schell’s favorite part of the weekend was the day after the tournament, when everyone stepped away from intense competition to train together, improving skills and pushing each other in order to elevate the level of the future team. She found that experience truly humbling. “Being able to learn new drills and gain a new perspective on training is something I’m excited that I’ve been able to bring back to the MAC dojo,” she says. Schell placed fourth in her division, which gives her a spot as an alternate to the top two competitors. Coming away from the experience, Schell feels revitalized in her training and ready to train harder for next year. Every experience like this, with athletes who have such incredible focus and ability, shows her ways to improve herself and those with whom she trains. Continued on page 62

The TriRun Committee offers up a hearty congratulations to member coach Lauren Binder for being named – once again – a 2015 all-American athlete by USA Triathlon. Binder not only excels at competition, but is wellknown for her zeal, true love of competition and multi-sport lifestyle. I’m sure we will see much more from her in the following year. A second round of applause goes to all the MAC milers who brought their sprinting legs to the Lincoln track in May for an annual showing of friendly, but fierce, running competition. Results may be found on the Tri/Run board on the lower level of the clubhouse. With the weather starting to dry out and race calendars filling up, the Tri/Run Committee knows many MAC members are out competing across the region. We are interested in which events our members are racing and ask that those out competing in run or multisport events send a quick email to Kelly@digitalschmidt.com to let us know what races you have planned throughout the summer months. We love to support and recognize our athletes. As a club, we have many members at Blue Lake for triathlon and duathlon events on Saturday, June 4 and Sunday, June 5. Later this month, another assembly is headed over the Cascades to central Oregon for the Pacific Crest Sports Festival. This weekend of fun and multisport is slated for Friday, June 24 through Sunday, June 26. New for 2016, Pacific Crest is a USAT sanctioned event run. It features an aquabike, a duathlon and running events of multiple distances. There is even an ultrasprint triathlon for those looking to get started in the event. For more information, see the Tri/Run board on the basement level.

Traveling in Malaysia and Singapore Martin Schwartz gives a presentation on his travels in Malaysia and Singapore at 7 p.m. Tuesday, June 7. This is an eclectic presentation covering history, natural history, politics and religion. His talk does not lack controversy. It features stunning photographs of this region. The Malay Peninsula extending south from Thailand is not well known to most Americans. It is a region of natural beauty where diverse cultures have blended and clashed. Islam refers to the dominant Malay population of Malaysia. Bird’s Nest Soup refers to its large and incredibly successful minority Chinese population. This soup really is made from bird’s nest, and is a much-prized delicacy. Ganesha is the elephantfaced God worshipped by the small Hindu population in Malaysia and Singapore. In Singapore, the Chinese are the dominant ethnic group. Malaysia is a relatively large and affluent southeast Asian country. It has a democratic veneer covering an authoritarian, highly corrupt political system that censors the press. Non-Muslims face overt discrimination while Muslim family life is subject to Sharia Law. Singapore is a small, secular, semi-democratic city-state with freedom of the press. It has

Athletics a feeling about being totally and absolutely responsible, most definitely not our familiar interpretation of responsibility for someone/ something. To live in a state of total responsibility offers a great deal of freedom and liberation. This kind of responsibility wells up from within, taking the form of care, love and deep affection for another. It would be impossible to understand this most pure interpretation of responsibility without mirroring it in relationship – relationship with a mate, relationship with a child, a parent, sibling, colleague, friend, pet and even our most fruitful earth. In order to be responsible to another, we must remove our image of self and other. When considering self and others (as necessarily separate beings) our minds immediately jump to the known. To be completely responsible would be to let go of attaching to predicted outcome – known – as this is feebly limited to our recall of past, only. To expect outcomes based on past experience will cause great misery within as we try to control and even shape similar (if it was favorable) or dissimilar outcomes. Obeying is not the same as being responsible. Obeying suggests acting differently from our inherent human nature to care, love and give freely with pureness of heart. To “obey” will impose external feedback as being right, better and good only to inspire inner resistance from this very noisy external voice that will always be in conflict with the wiser inner voice. To heed the advice of the external would be to assume another knows better than you. Rather, as a truly and totally responsible being we must trust our inner knowing. To live in the present we are free from the noise of past and future. To live in the present we are no longer tethered to external influences of what it means to be responsible. To live in the present, we are truly liberated from operating in a conformist understanding of being responsible.

Earning a Spot on MAC’s Wall of Fame

O

ne thing I’ve learned to do during this historical anniversary at the Multnomah Athletic Club is to slow down. Instead of rushing off once I walk in the front door, I like to wander and quietly appreciate the place. If you’re intrigued by my approach, the easiest place to start is in the lobby. Walk over to the Wall of Fame. Take your time. Study the photographs and read the names. When I did so, I recognized a childhood neighbor of mine who I’d long thought was just another middle-aged father. Turns out he was a champion wrestler. Another man I’d seen from time to time in the elevator. I had no idea he’d been a world-class tennis player. Who are these people? I called Ed Stoner, the club’s athletic director, to ask about the wall and the process by which people’s photographs end up there for all to see. While he agreed to talk, he said I first needed perspective. He told me the club’s Gallery of Champions, on the basement level, also recognizes the athletic accomplishments of members. “But the Wall of Fame is an entirely different level. It’s the difference between winning the U.S. Open, and winning a tournament for players with a 3.5 ranking.” I realized that the men and women featured on the wall are why the club has achieved a national reputation as an athletic powerhouse. They helped make us what we are. “Conceptually, the wall has been around for more than 100 years,” said Stoner. “It recognizes and honors members who’ve excelled at their sport. Being a member of the Wall of Fame community is the highest honor a member can achieve. Inductees are added to the wall after accomplishing national or international prominence in their sports.” Stoner said club management placed the wall in what he called “premier space” for a reason.

“When you come into the club,” he said, “you can see our legacy in those faces. It’s a constant reminder that the club is built on a foundation of athletics. Those faces can inspire all of us.” The wall, he adds, is also a commentary on the changing nature of sports and athletics. Never again will we have club champions in cricket, football or boxing. But once we did. And the honor can’t ever be taken away from them. Although there have been dry spells from time to time, Stoner said one or two members seem to earn their way onto the wall every few years. He mentioned a person so honored, suggesting I talk with Julian Illingworth. “What he did was phenomenal,” said Stoner. “It was beyond impressive. It was crazy.” When I interviewed Illingworth, he tried to deflect any praise by telling me what he sees when he walks by the wall. “I got my photo up there when I was 17,” he said. “I’m 32 now. I realize how skinny I was.” Now an assistant squash pro at the club, Illingworth is the most accomplished squash player in U.S. history. His father played squash at MAC. When Illingworth was 7, he took lessons at the club and began playing with other juniors. A student at Yale University, he was a four-time All-American selection, and a four-time All-Ivy selection. He won two U.S. National Titles during his junior and senior years. Beginning in 2005, Illingworth won a record eight consecutive U.S. national titles. He lost in 2013, but came back the next year to win his ninth title. “MAC played a big part in my development,” he said. “The coach at MAC had a son two years older than me. He was better, and pushed me. The coach was very

engaged, too. When I was 16, I was the No. 1 junior in the country.” Illingworth said the wall is a “cool” piece of history. “Sure I’m proud of all the accomplishments in squash,” he said. “I’m honored to be on the wall. But what I most like is being part of something bigger than me, bigger than any one person on the wall. You have to win to get on the wall, but the wall is a reminder of the club’s tradition, our community and our character.” As a coach, Illingworth has turned his attention to the kids who are as young as he was when he became curious about squash. “We have a group of juniors who play four or five days a week,” he said. “They are competitive nationally. My mission is to show kids a great sport, and help them have a great time. Sometimes I have to manage expectations a bit with parents. A lot of the parents that play squash, or played when they were in college, have no idea how competitive the sport can be.” Illingworth sees himself as a guide. “It’s OK to play for fun,” he said. “As a coach, that’s my No.1 goal for a kid. Sports teach life lessons: perseverance, winning and losing.” No question why the man belongs on the Wall of Fame. Tom Hallman Jr. is a Pulitzer Prizewinning reporter for The Oregonian, author and MAC member who teaches the club’s Tell-Your-Story writing class. In celebration of MAC’s 125th anniversary, Hallman is writing a monthly essay about the club. WM
