or those folks who attended one of the new-member receptions, this column will appear familiar. We board members have the pleasure of addressing those whose names were drawn recently from the lottery pool Robert Radler to become members. PRESIDENT When I spoke at the receptions, I explained how I, too, joined the club as a result of my family being chosen in the lottery, albeit about 20 years ago. Both when I joined and since being selected for the board, one thing about the club continues to amaze me. While MAC has a tremendous variety of offerings available to its members, it is amazing how few MAC members are aware of and take advantage of them.

Please, go explore. Act like you are a new member and tour the club website, watch the reader boards and wander the club. It is difficult to get clear data on the number of participants in all the programs and events at the club, but we can get an idea of how few members participate from the number of members visiting the club on a daily basis. MAC has about 17,500 members, but averages fewer than 2,971 daily check-ins. On any given day, only about 17 percent of our members use the club, and if you look closely at the data, those check-ins are often the same people. Unfortunately, I too am guilty of not being very aggressive in searching out and participating in MAC programs. As I have gotten more involved in the club’s committee system, that involvement has opened my eyes to what’s available. Now, you could learn about MAC by joining a committee, and the club would surely benefit from that. However, there are other ways to investigate MAC’s smorgasbord of programs. The website is the obvious first choice: go to www.theMAC.com and explore. To pique your interest, here are some of the classes, programs and events we offer that surprised me: educational classes in résumé creation,

watercolor painting, guitar, Spanish, ballroom dancing and knitting. In addition, you can travel with members to France or Peru, or grab tickets to Blazer games or theater performances. And then there are the sports programs for karate, Pilates, yoga, cycling and handball. Junior sports was another area of surprise to me. I was well aware of the swimming, gymnastics, skiing and rock climbing programs, but MAC also has junior sports programs for golf, dance, volleyball and racquetball. These are not exhaustive lists by any means. This is just what I found on an initial search of the website and watching the reader boards located around the club. Beyond the organized events and programs, there are less well-known locations at MAC for workouts and entertainment. Did you know we have three pools, all with water fitness classes available? How about the card room next to MACtinis? While the studio on the subbasement level probably is well known to the yoga enthusiast, I expect very few members know of the numerous racquetball, handball and squash courts on the same level. Please, go explore. Act like you are a new member and tour the club website, watch the reader boards and wander the club. What you find might provide a very worthwhile experience.

Paperless billing MAC has listened to its members and is saving money by emailing monthly statements. The club spends nearly $64,000 to send paper statements each year. That does not include the cost associated with employee time and effort. Like many of our “older” members, I felt more comfortable getting a paper bill and did not initially opt-in for paperless billing. I know email is a greener option, is less expensive, and therefore, helps keep dues in check. As someone who wants the club to be greener and does not want to increase member costs, I was not following my own advice. I finally opted in to paperless billing and have not regretted it once. And starting July 1, I can say that I’m saving $1 each month. You might even say MAC gave me a new experience, as I’m now far more willing to receive email billings. Learn more about paperless billing on page 19. WM MAY 2017

uring the past few months, the Board of Trustees and MAC’s executive staff have worked together to create a comprehensive plan – we’re calling it a roadmap – for 2017. It’s something we plan to do each year. Norm Rich GENERAL MANAGER A large part of the roadmap is recommitting ourselves to a strategic plan that sets our long-term future. The last strategic plan was created nearly 10 years ago. The board is committed to completing a new strategic plan by 2018. No thriving organization stands still, and change is an important part of any committed organization. While practicing change, we must respect tradition and review past practices. Collecting and analyzing data is part of this process. Looking forward, trustees and directors are working hard on establishing the roadmap for our future. I have told trustees that the greatest gift we can leave behind is a thoughtful path that maps out our long-term future. While none of us know exactly what our future brings, we know change is a part of life. We are currently changing Joe’s on the basement level, giving it a new look and a new commitment to helping you live a healthy lifestyle. Last year, the Sports Pub was refreshed, the Women’s Locker Room was updated, and the Tetris project, which includes many updates in the Main and West gyms, was completed last month. We also experienced change in some of our director positions. In April, Phil Galvin joined MAC as the Athletic and Wellness Director, a new title designed to meet the changing athletic landscape. Phil is just beginning to forge a relationship with his athletic managers. Together, they will set a course for the club’s athletic future. In February, we hired Marketing Director Jen Scott to lead our communications and marketing efforts. Jen is meeting with her department heads and forging a path to better stay in touch with our members, communities and staff, while improving the tools needed to accomplish those goals. We look forward to expanding our technology department as that area continues to grow. Technology helps us save time and makes us more efficient but also presents

new challenges as we work to develop and maintain our systems. We have added additional responsibilities to Controller Heather Bulloch’s ledger; she will assume some of the chief financial officer responsibilities. Membership Director Josie Henderson will partner with Member Services Manager Christine Natonek and the managers on duty to merge their departments, making the MOD a more member-centric service position. As announced last month, Member Events and Catering have merged. This change will strengthen our food and beverage team by combining their knowledge, creating efficiencies, streamlining internal processes and fostering collaboration between departments. In May, Martha Richmond will join our staff as the part-time community relations specialist. She will work closely with the communities around MAC and throughout our city. Martha brings decades of experience working in community relations at the Portland Development Commission and Port of Portland. While change never comes easily, it can create opportunities to be more efficient, create better member services and make us more relevant. Our organization is big; we will take in over $49 million this year with the club and our associated properties. The number of member interactions (transactions and swipes) increases most years by three percent or more, while the total number of members has remained the same for 20 years. Our data tells us that members are using the club more often and spending more time at the club. I am proud to say that the MAC becomes more relevant to more members every year. Our club has changed greatly over the years; we started as a football and cricket club, but today we no longer practice those sports. They have been replaced with new sports that meet members’ interests more closely. I am not sure what the future brings, but I know we will not stand still while the world changes around us. We will change along the way, as we always have, and listen to members as we set a strategic plan that creates a roadmap for the future. Finally, happy Mother’s Day to all moms and grandmoms. Your hard work is recognized by family and friends; your children are the legacy you leave behind in our everchanging world. Enjoy every moment; the journey is not always smooth, but it will be meaningful and loving along the way! WM MAY 2017

Bernard A. Fox, Ph.D. Chief, Laboratory of Molecular and Tumor Immunology Harder Family Chair for Cancer Research Robert W. Franz Cancer Research Center Earle A. Chiles Research Institute Providence Cancer Center

Education and training: • University of Detroit (B.S. and M.S.) • Wayne State University (Ph.D.) • National Cancer Institute (fellowship in cancer immunotherapy)

Why Providence? I was on the faculty at the University of Michigan when I heard from Dr. Walter Urba at Providence. He had a vision to develop a cancer immunotherapy program and asked me to join him. I’ve been here over 23 years. I’m inspired by our patients, donors, research team and the progress we’ve achieved so far to finish cancer.

What are your hobbies? For the last 11 years I’ve been developing UbiVac, a biotechnology start-up that Dr. Hong-Ming Hu and I founded based on cancer vaccine technology developed at Providence. We’ve completed one trial and are planning another to combine two agents developed at Providence for patients with breast cancer.

What’s a great Providence memory? Twenty years ago we successfully treated a young woman with advanced breast cancer using a first-in-human cancer vaccine. I saw

her again last year, and she described watching her two daughters grow to adulthood.

Who were your mentors? My sixth-grade science teacher, Sister Marion, instilled a love of science. Dr. William Nunez at the University of Detroit introduced me to immunology, and Dr. Stephen A. Rosenberg at the NCI taught me how to move scientific discoveries in animals into new therapies for humans.

Why does philanthropy matter? A major component of a scientist’s work is submitting grants, and it can take a year or two to receive any money. Philanthropy allows us to start a project faster and fill in financial gaps. At Providence, philanthropy has played an important role in every first-in-human study we’ve performed. Also due to philanthropy, I’m honored to hold the Harder Family Endowed Chair for Cancer Research, which allows Providence and our patients to participate in the global immunotherapy community.

hope this finds each of you well and looking forward to a fantastic month of May. EXCITED! That is my word of choice for how I feel about joining the unbelievable community at MAC. It is my pleasure to become Phil Galvin a part of one of the ATHLETIC AND great athletic clubs WELLNESS DIRECTOR in the world – what a privilege! I want to thank so many of you that have welcomed me with open arms during my first week here. As I write this column, I have been here a whopping five days. As a brief bit of background, I come to the club after serving the past four years as the general manager at VillaSport Athletic Club and Spa in Beaverton. I was lucky to be a part of building that club from the ground up, and learning a ton in the process. Prior to that, I was a proud part of the Olympic Club in San Francisco for 20 years. I held the position of basketball director for the first 17 years, then was assistant athletic director for the last three. It was during my two decades at the Olympic Club that I truly became passionate about working and serving in this environment. As I enter into this new position at MAC, my goal is pretty simple: to improve upon every single aspect of the fantastic tradition and foundation that is built. In short, I am here to help take MAC into the future. I have a quote on my desk that reads: ‘There is no such thing as staying the same - you are either getting better or getting worse. There is no such thing as holding on to what you have.’ This is a motto by which I have tried to live my life, and I truly believe in constant personal and professional improvement. Exciting! My true partner in life is my wife Michelle, whom I have been married to for 21 years. Our eldest son, Tyler, is a graduating senior at Southridge High School in Beaverton. An All-Metro league basketball player (yes, we are quite the hoops family), he is busy deciding where he is going to play college hoops next year. Our middle son is Zach, 16, also a standout basketball player at Southridge. Rounding out the Galvin clan is the true leader of the family, 14-year-old Mia. A self-proclaimed do-it-all, there is truly nothing that Mia can’t accomplish (help, please!). Please be patient with me as I learn the systems and unique aspects of MAC, and do not hesitate to stop and introduce yourself when you see me in the club. I am truly here to serve the members of MAC, and have a dear passion for helping people. WM

FACES IN THE CLUB The Walking and Hiking Committee was named the 2016-17 Sport Committee of the Year. In 2016-2017, Chair Sue Stonecliffe (inset) led this large committee through another year of 100-plus hikes and urban walks, six evening presentations, and several annual events such as an ivy pull on the MAC Trail in Washington Park. The committee was lauded in its nomination for its excellent division of labor throughout committee members, its smart resource stewardship, loyal following, and broad audience reached through events offered weekdays, evenings and some weekends.

Natalie Lorati, 18, competed in the National Intercollegiate Racquetball Championships in Los Angeles in March. Representing Oregon State University, Lorati won national titles in women’s No. 4 singles, women’s No. 2 doubles and a team title with OSU. Lorati also won a high school national title in March 2016 for Beaverton High School. She will be recognized on MAC’s Champions Court No. 10, which honors all of MAC’s racquetball national champions. Lorati is a freshman at OSU and helped the Beavers earn their 10th straight national racquetball championship. Over the years, MAC members have been key to OSU’s success.

Lake Oswego High School lacrosse standout Lauren Gilbert has committed to play lacrosse at Northwestern University in the fall. Gilbert, a MAC member since birth and senior at LOHS, was named the Oregon Sports Awards prep lacrosse player of the year in 2016. She was also named MVP of the state lacrosse championship game, scoring five goals in the Lakers’ victory over rival West Linn. She earned all-American and academic all-American honors in lacrosse over the past two seasons and was named to second team all state in soccer in the fall. When she’s not on the field, Gilbert volunteers at Providence Children’s Center and coaches youth lacrosse in the area.

New cycling member coach Mark Mattecheck’s passion is long-distance endurance racing, but he says these days, nothing makes him happier than a cruise on his fat bike. “I work to ride,” he says. “From an early age, I fell in love with my bicycle, even if I still fall off it frequently.” Mattecheck hails from Yankton, South Dakota, and has raced road, track, cyclocross, time trials and triathlons. His favorite cycling memory is riding down the Champ Elysees in Paris and he hopes to one day compete in the Race Across America from California to Maryland. “I just like to see what it takes to win,” he says. “I always look forward to sharing the road with a new friend as well as riding over just one more hill.”

Bryan Leslie recently joined the MAC Cycling Committee as a member coach. Leslie, 29, grew up in the greater Portland area and graduated from LaSalle High School. His earliest cycling memory is riding 60 miles over Mount Hood on a mountain bike, and his favorite is riding the rim road at Crater Lake. He attended Gonzaga University in Spokane, Washington and is a proud Bulldog. He is an avid casual cyclist with eight Cycle Oregon rides under his belt, and is looking forward to the 30th anniversary of Cycle Oregon this year. He has also completed the Summit to Surf ride from Welches to Hood River. Outside of bike riding, Leslie spends most of his free time playing golf.

Alex Paul recently won first place in the Dante Rossetti Young Adult Fiction contest for his book SeaJourney. The book is the first in his young adult series Arken Freeth and the Adventure of the Neanderthals. The four-book epic fantasy adventure series follows the adventures of Arken Freeth, a young Neanderthal living 13,000 years ago. The competition in Bellingham, Washington, attracted thousands of entries from 33 countries, and Paul says he is honored SeaJourney was selected as the winner. The book is available for free on Amazon Kindle and already has thousands of downloads. Paul lives in Portland in the summer and on the Oregon Coast in the winter with his wife, Laura Ross-Paul.

CULINARY

MAC dietitian Tysen Christensen worked with Joe’s staff to create a healthy list of menu items.

Joe’s: A New Menu with Wellness in Mind W

hen Joe’s reopened in April, it was hard to miss the bold new look. But the restaurant’s refresh included more than just a makeover. Along with Joe’s menu standbys, chefs Tara Cederquist and April Ramos worked with dietitian Tysen Christensen to develop a list of healthy items for people looking to eat better and get the most out of their workouts.

Dietitian approved When members need help losing weight, eating better or creating healthy habits, they turn to Christensen, MAC’s registered dietitian. Over the past five years, she’s worked with clients in nearly every way you can imagine: diet consultations, group sessions, working on restaurant menus – even joining members on trips to the grocery store. Christensen gravitated toward nutrition while studying agriculture at Oregon State, where she became fascinated by the relationship between crops and the environment in which they grow. She earned a master’s in clinical nutrition while simultaneously completing a dietetic internship in 2012 at Oregon Health and Science University. She started working at the MAC in 2010, logging hours in private dining while attending OHSU. “What I enjoy most about working at MAC is the diversity,” she says. “I work with a wide range of individuals delivering nutrition and wellness information to members of all ages. I have a passion for working with individuals interested in sports nutrition, cardiovascular disease prevention and treatment, and educating individuals about healthy foods.”

Wellness approved In 2015, Christensen worked with Sports Pub Chef Deanna Bascom to develop dietitian-approved items that bear the MAC Wellness stamp of approval for the Sports Pub. Now, she’s bringing the same program to Joe’s. Dietitian-approved items include carbohydrates from a whole-grain or high-fiber source, a high-quality protein, and are low in saturated fats and sodium. Look for the MAC Wellness logo on select foods.

Prefuel Menu Want to get the most out of your workout? MAC’s Prefuel Menu includes foods that prep your body for a hard effort. Prefuel items are low in fat and fiber to keep you from feeling bogged down while you’re working hard. They include protein to help reduce postworkout muscle soreness, readily available carbohydrates to fuel your muscles, and liquid to prevent dehydration and cramping.

Refuel Menu The best way to waste a hard workout is to ignore post-exercise nutrition. MAC’s Refuel Menu selections are high in protein to help repair and rebuild muscle and reduce fatigue. Items also include carbs to replenish energy to muscle cells, and sodium and potassium to replenish electrolytes to help you recover faster. Depending on your weight and the intensity of your workout, you should eat 15 to 25 grams of high-quality protein – think lean meats or legumes – after a hard workout. WM

MULTNOMAH ATHLETIC FOUNDATION

What Would Your Child Do With $5,000? Foundation looking for youth to serve on team that awards grants to youth athletics programs in the area.

ultnomah Athletic Foundation is proud to announce a new and unique opportunity, for youth in seventh and eighth grades, to learn about community leadership through philanthropy and grant making. This year, the Youth Grant Initiative (YGI) team will award $5,000 to nonprofit organizations that qualify for the Multnomah Athletic Foundation Community Grant Program. The team will be made up of least 10 middle school students, and participation is open to both MAC membership as well as the community at large. The YGI is a grant program that provides confidence and character-building opportunities with an emphasis on athletic participation for youth. The program’s goal is to extend our values by leading youth through the process of creating positive change within their communities through athletics. Ultimately, the MAF board believes youth have distinct and exceptional insights into the needs of other youth, and we hope to assist them in using their ideas to create positive change within the community at large. By the end of the program, the YGI team will collectively make grant award and funding recommendations and present their findings to the Multnomah Athletic Foundation Board.

Multnomah Athletic Foundation is looking for eager participants who demonstrate a passion for their community, have a strong connection to athletics, and who understand the importance of community outreach and compassion. Team members will meet six times this fall, and meeting topics include, but are not limited to: leadership, understanding of a nonprofit organization, basics of community engagement, grant-making process, review of applications, value of relationships and field trips. If you or someone you know is interested in joining the YGI team, here are the important details: • Two essay questions and one letter of recommendation required • Use your creativity in your answers – we accept text, videos or audio recordings. • Deadline is Thursday, May 25 • Applications are now available from the Multnomah Athletic Foundation website or the At Your Service desk. • Personal interviews are Friday, June 2, through Thursday, June 8 The Youth Grant Initiative is made possible by contributions to the MAC Annual Fund Drive. –Tessa Yost

“You’re working at the MAC club?” was the incredulous response when my friends learned about my new job. Putting aside their superfluous use of the word “club” for a moment, I understood what they meant. This is a big departure from the creative agencies and fast-paced startups I’ve worked at for most of my career. But now that I’m a couple of months in, I see how dynamic this place really is. The club is going through a significant transformation this year and, just like a young startup, it requires flexibility and openness to change. But what really attracted me to this place is the strong community and the opportunity to tell your stories. Storytelling has always been an essential part of community-building and is how MAC’s values and traditions will continue to endure as the channels of communication evolve. This is an important part of my job as marketing director. But it’s not the whole job. You still want to know when the next yoga class is and whether or not the parking garage is full yet today, right? And that’s where I need your help. You recently should have received an email asking for your feedback on how MAC communicates with you. We know that one-size does not fit all when it comes to communications, and with a membership as large and diverse as ours we need to truly understand your preferences. I urge you to take 10 minutes to complete this survey because your input will help create the foundation for our marketing and communications program going forward. To all the wonderful members I’ve met in the past weeks, thank you so much for the warm welcome. I already feel like part of this community. I even correct my friends now when they call it the “MAC club.”

ADMINISTRATIVE PARKING

Park Safely and Smartly at MAC Drivers often disregard common courtesy and respect for others when they are in a hurry. Here are some tips to help you park smartly and safely at MAC: • Center your vehicle within the inside parking space lines. The inside lines are a tool to help you align your vehicle correctly within the space. Extending on or past the outside lines may result in a parking violation being issued, not to mention the loss of parking area in the adjacent space and the potential for door dings. If you see that you are parked so close to another vehicle that it inhibits the ability to get into the driver’s side door, please realign your vehicle or choose another space. If any part of your vehicle protrudes into the neighboring space, you are subject to a $50 fine per Club Rules. • Never force your car into a parking space. A large SUV or pick-up truck does not fit in a compact space. • Pull your vehicle all the way into the space. This makes it easier for other drivers to see past your car when backing out. • Do not block other MAC parkers who are seeking a space while you wait for a space to open up.

Sure, you can park outside of the lines – but it will cost you. Sanctions for parking offenses start at $50 and go up with each subsequent violation.

• Watch for drivers backing out of blind spots. Small cars parked between larger vehicles like vans or SUVs often have to back out blindly. Be alert and give them space. • Keep children under control while walking through the parking garage. This helps protect them from inattentive drivers. • Park only in designated spaces. Once parked, keep valuables out of sight in your vehicle. • While waiting in a parking space, please don’t leave your vehicle idling with your foot on the brake. Others will think you are in the process of backing out. • Observe the club’s parking rules: posted 5 MPH speed limit; stop signs; handicap

spaces; directional arrows; and pedestrian crosswalks Vehicles protruding into the crosswalk area on the north wall of the fourth floor parking level restrict clearance for pedestrians walking in this area, especially for those who are disabled. This creates an unsafe situation where pedestrians must walk into the twoway drive lane to get around these improperly parked vehicles. Parking violations are routinely issued to drivers extending into this crosswalk. Following these parking etiquette tips can go a long way in making the MAC parking garage a pleasant and safe experience for all.

Save Time. Save Money. Save Trees. Have you ever had a billing statement get lost in the mail or take forever to arrive? Take the post office out of the equation by opting out of mailed MAC statements and opting in to emailed statements. The club mails over 115,000 member statements annually, and effective July 1, all members who receive a mailed statement will be charged $1 per statement. This step helps the club save money, ensures you get your statement faster, and saves a few trees along the way. Contact the Business Office at 503-517-7200 or Membership at 503-517-7280 or stop by At Your Service the next time you are at the club to assist you with your request. Thank you in advance for supporting this sustainability initiative at the club.

ADMINISTRATIVE EXECUTIVE

Roadmap Provides a Plan for the Future MAC’s leadership team, in partnership with the Board of Trustees, has spent the past few months developing an annual roadmap, the club’s first integrated operational plan. The roadmap is designed to align the entire organization around a single set of goals. In the past, MAC’s departments had a combination of overlapping, and in some cases conflicting, goals. The roadmap helps staff set organization-wide priorities. The 2017 roadmap combines Board charges, director-level performance goals and departmental action plans into a single, unified vision. This allows staff to prioritize its efforts, increase efficiency, and work better together. Throughout the year, the executive staff will monitor the roadmap’s goals to track progress, and report those results to committees on a quarterly basis. The 2017 roadmap goals include: maintain financial stability; continue to offer vibrant programming; enhance MAC’s relationship with the community; improve and upgrade technology; optimize organizational structure; and strengthen employee engagement.

In Memoriam Jim Brink June 18, 1925-March 12, 2017 With family at his side, Jim Brink died Sunday, March 12, 2017, at Legacy Emanuel Hospital after fighting a brief battle with cancer. He was 91. The cancer took his life, but not his sense of humor, which endured to the end. Jim was born in San Diego, where he discovered his talent for tennis. At 12 years of age, he was bringing home trophies, such as the 1938 San Diego County Boys Singles Tournament. In 1940, his parents, Siegfried and Adeline, and family moved to Seattle where he continued to excel at tennis and attended Roosevelt High School and the University of Washington, where he joined Phi Gamma Delta and began friendships that endured for years. Jim was one of the tennis greats of his time, playing with and against such famous names as Jack Kramer, Pancho Gonzales, and Robert Faulkenberg. A few highlights of his racket accomplishments include: ranked ninth in national men’s singles in 1943, a four-set win over Arnold Saul in the 1949 Cincinnati Open, a 1949 NCAA doubles title that he shared with Fred Fisher, induction into the University of Washington Husky Hall of Fame in 1989 (Jim is one of 203 inductees), induction into the USTA Pacific Northwest Hall of Fame in 2010, and crushing his oldest son in squash in 1968 at the Multnomah Athletic Club (MAC) where he was a member for over 60 years. Jim played tennis until the age of 90 when the desire to win was still in play, but the body was not. Jim never took to the court to play. His goal was always to win. Jim met his wife Bonnie at the University of Washington. They were married in October of 1947 and almost made it to 70 years of marriage. Jim moved the family to Portland in 1951, where he worked for Holman Distribution Company for more than 30 years as a sales manager. Jim retired in 1983. Jim and Bonnie then began a second career in the purchase and management of commercial buildings, which allowed Jim the opportunity to make more friends. Jim and Bonnie were blessed with five sons, nine grandsons, and three granddaughters. They attended countless baseball games and other sporting events, and Jim made sure the umpires knew that he was in attendance. Jim will surely be remembered for his kind heart. Throughout his life, in ways known and unknown, he provided a helping hand to many. From stopping to give a homeless person a few bucks to helping tenants that

were struggling financially, Jim always had a soft spot in his heart for those in need. Jim is survived by his wife, Bonnie; sons, Jim, Bob, Mike, Steve, and John and their respective families; and his sister, Bertie Perry. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to: Smile Train, P.O. Box 96231, Washington D.C. 20077-7377; and Children’s Center, 1713 Penn Ln., Oregon City, OR 97045-1528.

Claudia Lacey McNeil Aug. 8, 1950-March 13, 2017 Honorary life member Claudia L. McNeil passed away on March 13, 2017. She was 66. Claudia was born in Portland to Hugh and Rosemary Lacey. She grew up in the Strohecker’s neighborhood of Portland’s West Hills and attended St. Thomas Moore Elementary School, Holy Child Academy, and the University of Oregon. Claudia was a proud member of the Alpha Phi sorority and an enthusiastic Duck supporter for the rest of her life. After college, Claudia commenced a 25-year career in banking management at U.S. Bank of Oregon and Bank of America. She then launched a new career as a real estate agent and broker, becoming one of Portland’s top-producing agents by 2013. That career was cut short by ALS (Lou Gehrig’s Disease), the progression of which led to her passing. Claudia’s life was all about family, friends and travel. She did vacations with her husband and family on Lake Champlain in Vermont. She walked the Portland Marathon three times. She traveled to France several times and fell in love with Cassis on the Mediterranean. She never missed her daughters’ school activities and sporting events from grade school through college, where she was the proudest mom on the sidelines at Lincoln High School, Stanford and the University of Oregon. She also loved helping them mature into professional women and mothers, especially as they became realtors and assumed responsibility for her real estate business as she transitioned into retirement. Claudia is survived by her husband, Daniel F. McNeil; daughters Christy MacColl (EK MacColl), Carrie Gross (Sean Gross); five grandchildren; brothers Daniel and Hugh Lacey; sister Anne Lacey (Rich Ivry); and her mother, Rosemary Lacey. Her father, Hugh Lacey, preceded her in death. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in memory of Claudia to the University of Oregon Foundation’s “Claudia Lacey McNeil Scholarship Fund,” 1720 E. 13th Ave. #410, Eugene, OR 97403.

ACTIVITIES Afternoon trip to Dayton includes tastings with one of Oregon’s premier wineries and the state’s only olive oil maker

njoy the afternoon in Dayton at Durant Vineyards and Oregon Olive Mill on Thursday, July 13. These beautiful properties, together known as Red Ridge Farms, are owned by the Durant family, fifth-generation Oregonians who also are MAC members. The afternoon includes a guided tour of the Oregon Olive Mill, followed by an exploration of the estate-milled extra virgin olive oils. Olive oil is then paired and tasted alongside a variety of proteins, starches, vegetables and sweets to better understand the ways in which it can elevate even the simplest of foods. Durant Vineyards estate-grown wines round out the tasting, and we examine the ways in which wine and olive oil play off of each other to further complement food pairings. Wine flights focus on single vineyards and clones comparing various vintages and estate elevations. For more than 40 years, the Durant family has grown wine grapes on the hillside the family calls home. The family’s original vision has grown to include a specialty plant nursery, gift shop, olive grove, Oregon’s only commercial olive oil mill, wine tasting room, overnight lodging, event spaces and expansive gardens. The family’s history in the Willamette Valley – now spanning five generations – began with English walnuts, hazelnuts, Italian prunes and cherries. In 1973, the Durant family was among the first in Oregon to attempt growing wine grapes. The family planted olives in 2004, establishing one of the first orchards in Oregon. With the first and only commercial olive oil mill in Oregon, they handcraft signature olive oils with their own distinctive aromas and flavors.

Olive oil is paired and tasted alongside a variety of proteins, starches, vegetables and sweets to better understand the ways in which it can elevate even the simplest of foods. The cost is $95 per person and includes transportation, a boxed lunch, wine tasting and olive oil tastings. The bus leaves at noon and returns around 6 p.m. There is a two-week cancellation policy for this Culture and Style event, which is for those ages 21 and older.

SOCIAL ACTIVITIES The Social Activities Committee kept their promise of “People, Parties, and Fun,” and fulfilled its goal to provide events that include something for every MAC member. The year began with 230 MAC members dusting off their disco duds, embracing their inner Super Troopers, and joining in for the Mamma Mia Sing Along. It was well received by nearly 230 members, and included performances from the MelloMacs, Balladeers, and the dance department. In April, SAC partnered with the Early Birds for the first Bingo Breakfast event. The Derby Day tradition continued in the Reading Lounge, with lively betting and impressive hats. Summer activities included the Singles Meet-Up: City Walk and a vintage red double decker bus, renamed The Spirit Bus, took participants to Indio Spirits in Tigard for an educational and tasting event. In November, the Ballroom was transformed into a 70s/80s Dance Party. Members danced down memory lane and celebrated the creative and colorful decades that brought us bell-bottoms, Rubik’s cubes, pet rocks, and leg warmers. Pitch Tournaments and monthly Trivia Nights continued, with many reoccurring teams coming back for redemption and prize money. We could not have done this without the direction from our Member Events staff liaison, Mandy Beasley. Many thanks to our creative and fun SAC members for making each SAC a memorable event. u Committee members: Jennifer Strait and Tracy Sailors (co-chairs), Sharon Bishop, Tony Cirino, Carrie Conte, Colleen Kangas, Claudine Kent, Mary McGrane, Jill Neuwelt, Biddy Wolf, Carrie Stevens, Catherine LeJeal, Maryam Zare, and Member Events Committee Liaison, MaryKay Rodman.

Al Tauscher Awards Granted to Exceptional Young MAC Members

Piper Ahn High School: Jesuit Grade: 9 MAF Grant: Happy Trails Riding Center

n 1995, Multnomah Athletic Club established a tradition of honoring outstanding young members with the Al Tauscher Junior and Teen Recognition Award. The winners were honored at an awards banquet on May 1. New this year, the Member Events Committee partnered with Multnomah Athletic Foundation to celebrate the accomplishments of these outstanding younger members. The Foundation provided a $300 donation for each winner to direct to a Foundation community grant recipient of their choice. Multnomah Athletic Foundation’s mission provides character- and confidence-building opportunities for youth. Piper Ahn has played lacrosse, her main passion, since third grade. After playing on year-round lacrosse teams around the country, including 3D Oregon, Team 12 National and Tenacity Elite, Piper joined the Jesuit High School varsity lacrosse team this year as a freshman starter. Besides lacrosse, also has has participated in and trained for cross country, volleyball and soccer. A diligent and responsible honor roll student with an excellent GPA at Jesuit, Piper also regularly participates in community service and church activities. She volunteers at food drives and the Oregon Food Bank, and has helped mentor second-graders at Holy Trinity Church. Last year, Piper and her friend raised around $800 – by developing a dancing and singing camp for young children – for a girl in Kenya who couldn’t afford to pay for her school tuition. Piper states, “through hard work and commitment – as well as support from teachers, friends, family, coaches and teammates – I have achieved a level of success in athletics and school that I never could have dreamed of.” Her proud father wrote that Piper “pursues the positive aspects of teamwork and sportsmanship, community building and scholastic excellence exemplified by the Al Tauscher Teen Award.” We agree. Delaney Dougherty, a sophomore at Wilsonville High School, says the MAC has been “a big part of (her) life, starting with child care, Family Fridays, swimming lessons, summer camps, manners class and now playing MAC volleyball 16-1 Black team.” Delaney is a well-rounded athlete, an accomplished National Honors Society student and a well-respected leader. Even though she is only a sophomore, she been selected as the varsity team captain on her high school volleyball team. She also received varsity letters for softball and swimming since her freshman year. Along with her many athletic and academic accomplishments, Delaney is a gifted singer and recently has been selected as a member of the competitive Wilsonville High School Symphonic Choir. Delaney credits the Red Cross baby-sitting class she took at MAC as opening doors for her to volunteer and work with children. In her own words: “I believe in hard work and strive to do my best. I feel blessed to participate in a variety of activities.” Active in Girl Scouts, Delaney has been mentoring and inspiring young girls

by working as a counselor at Camp Will-o-Linn and volunteering at Lowrie Elementary School. Her love of helping children has led her to set a life goal of becoming a pediatrician. Delaney’s Coach and social studies teacher Kristen Rott says “her demonstrated leadership and dedication have made a positive impact on our school and community, and I have no doubt that this will continue at the university she chooses to attend.” Emily maintains a 3.96 GPA and is an active volunteer in her community. Her future plans are to attend the University of Iowa and pursue a degree in civil engineering.

Zaidie Long is hardworking, intelligent and committed to everything she puts her mind to. She has demonstrated excellence in community service, leadership, academics and athletics. As an athlete Zaidie is a dedicated member of the MAC swim team. She has played for her school junior varsity soccer team and ran varsity cross-country to help Catlin Gabel win its division state championship. Excelling in school, she balances her studies of level 5 Spanish, level 3 Mandarin, calculus BC and accelerated science. She recently won a Gold Key Award for poetry from the Scholastic Art and Writing Awards, and was a winner in the Oregon Poetry Association 2017 student contest. Consistently taking on leadership roles, as a Senior Girl Scout Zaidie earned her Silver Award for developing an informative website for teens. She has committed time to the local community and motivated her troop to travel abroad to help build a rural community school in Ecuador. Zaidie says “I believe that leadership is key to bringing about change … I plan to continue to act as a leader, both locally and throughout the world, working to forward our global society and empower every individual to bring about the changes they want to see in their own communities.” After receiving the Portland Pearl Rotary Club Youth Exchange Fellowship, she will spend next year abroad as a global youth representative. Zaidie’s Girl Scout Troop Leader Mary-Catherine McElroyFuchs sums it up: “Not only has she done wonderful things, she will continue as a leader in her community throughout her life to the benefit of us all.” Molly Mason exemplifies the qualities embodied by this award. She demonstrates excellence in her academics, extracurricular activities, community service and teamwork. She has been playing volleyball for MAC since 2009 and is on her school’s varsity volleyball team. She is involved in numerous school clubs and organizations and is a regular volunteer at PHFS (Portland Homeless Family Solutions) as well as many MAC children’s events. Molly states: “Through these activities I have had many opportunities to be a leader as well as to understand the importance of teamwork.” Molly considers MAC a second home, and it was on her walks from school downtown, up to MAC, that she encountered Portland’s homeless crisis firsthand and decided to take action by volunteering her time. Helping solve the Portland homeless crisis has since become her passion. Her duties at PHFS include helping children with homework and playing with and entertaining them while their parents complete job applications or attend classes. As a school ambassador for St. Mary’s and a mentor to new and prospective students, Molly is a dedicated leader. Her English teacher Sara Salvi says, “Molly is a student athlete anyone would want in their class or on their team,” and her varsity volleyball coach Sheena Raffaele states, “Molly is not only a talented player, but is selfless in her pursuit to make everyone around her better.” Isabella Wallace epitomizes what it means to be a scholar, an athlete and a team player. Isabella has been competing for the MAC swim team since she was 12 years old. This year she earned

Al Tauscher Teen Award Recipients

fourth-place finishes in both of her events at state and received a varsity letter while swimming for Jesuit High School. Isabella is wellrounded in her interests. She excels in academics with more than a 4.0 grade-point average (due to her honors classes), is a leader on her swim team, and when home enjoys playing the piano, singing, baking and skiing in the winter. Her English teacher Billy Biegler SJ says, “beyond Isabella’s academic contributions, which are notable, her disposition and the way she engages her peers is extraordinary. She is quick to offer assistance and eager to engage with tenderness, dignity and love.” Isabella cares deeply about her community. She recently contributed as part of the Children’s Cancer Walk. As a member of National Charity League, she volunteers at several local philanthropic organizations. She is involved in her church as an altar server and plans to soon be involved in Jesuit’s Campus Ministry program. Hard-working with incredible discipline, and kind to everyone, her most admirable quality is that she is always true to herself. Isabella says it best: “I strive to do the best at whatever I do.” Continued on page 48

Maisie Alexander School: Cathedral

Maisie Alexander, a seventh-grader at Cathedral School, has achieved

Grade: 7

many accomplishments as a middle schooler. To begin 2017, Maisie was one of four students invited to participate on Cathedral’s MathFest team. As her school principal stated, “Maisie’s academic and leadership skills earned her [a] position on the team.” Unfortunately, the unexpected and lengthy snow and ice storms in Portland canceled the event. Maisie is known by her teachers as a special student who is responsible, compassionate and dedicated to learning, generous in her service to others, and a trusted and true friend. Maisie loves MAC. She has taken dance and participated in MAC’s year-end performance on the stage at the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall. Maisie currently serves on MAC’s Junior Events Committee, and you might have seen her in December helping children build their gingerbread houses at the Holiday Open House. Maisie has played volleyball at MAC since fourth grade when she began on the U12 Silver team. She graduated up to the U12 Black team and has played with that team for three years. Maisie has received numerous athletic awards in volleyball, including the Coaches Award, the Most Inspirational Team Player Award, and the Most Valuable Player Award (last year). Maisie and her teammates represented MAC in two national tournaments in Orlando, Florida, and Indianapolis, Indiana. Her volleyball coach Lea Petock wanted us to know, “Maisie is a natural leader by example. As the season progresses, so does Maisie. She works hard in practice, is flexible in new situations, and she has positive feedback for her teammates. I enjoy coaching Maisie.”

MAF Grant: Girls on the Run

Skylar Bordonaro truly embodies the Al Tauscher Teen Award. Skylar is an exemplary student, teammate, leader and community member. She volunteers regularly in her community and currently is a member of the MAC U12 Volleyball Team. Skylar has been a student at Cathedral since she was in kindergarten. She has been an active athlete in the Catholic Youth Organization sports program for years. She competes in basketball and tennis along with MAC Volleyball. She often is described by teammates and friends alike as “kind, thoughtful, loyal and committed [to her team].” Skylar is humble yet very proud of her accomplishments. She has served as a member of Cathedral’s Student Council, the Battle of the Books team and the Speech team. Skylar recently represented Cathedral School in a citywide speech tournament and earned the fourth spot out of 100 – all while maintaining straight As. As a dedicated volunteer in her community, Skylar is an altar server at St. Mary’s Cathedral and serves the homeless at Blanchet House. Her dedication has garnered respect among many of her peers and teachers. As her aunt Lisa Handley puts it, Skylar is “attuned to what others are feeling … she is truly a remarkable force for compassion and kindness.”

School: Da Vinci Arts

Violet Gullung, an eighth-grader at Da Vinci Arts Middle School, has earned success in athletics, community service and academics. Violet believes she is a role model because “I always work hard at whatever I am doing, whether it’s gymnastics, dance, track and field … school work … or fundraising money to give out to other organizations.” Violet grew up at the MAC, which has become her second home. She has participated in Tiny Tots, Family Fridays, Swimming, Holiday Activities and regularly attends the Father/Daughter Dance with her dad. She currently is a member of MAC Gymnastics where she excels as a Level 5 Team Member – and has won first place on Floor, Vault and Beam, and first in All-Around at the MAC Open. Violet has been involved with Girls Inc., a grass-roots organization that empowers girls ages 6-18, since she was in fourth grade. She was selected to join the Girls Council, a yearly panel of girls that represents the organization, and currently is on the

Communicare Group, which raises money for other charities. Violet does not tire from her leadership roles; as the eldest of five siblings, she is also an expert cooperator and leader at home, taking on babysitting, dog walking, homework help, and other responsibilities to help out in [a] busy household. Violet also loves school and maintains excellent grades. She is an avid reader who regularly completes two books a week and finds time to write poetry. She currently is completing a dual capstone in textiles and 3D art. Violet’s social studies teacher Ann Fournier sums it up: “she is exceedingly kind, generous and hard-working.”

Emma Rose Matous is “Passionate. Driven. Hardworking.” These were words that teachers used to describe her while nominating her for the Al Tauscher Award. Emma Rose is an eighth grader at King’s Way Christian School. “She is one of the hardest-working students I have ever had. I am continually impressed by her ability to balance high academic rigor and athletics,” says Danielle Martin, Emma Rose’s eighth-grade science teacher. Emma Rose also is enrolled in three high school classes: Geometry, Spanish 3 and STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math). Emma Rose balances out her academics with swimming, service and student government. She is a member and newly elected leader of the ASB (Academic Student Body) at school. This student-led group organizes community service projects for individuals, as well as the whole student body. Emma Rose is committed to helping in her school: “I applied for this opportunity (ABS) in hopes I could solve problems in our school environment and plan activities to help us grow more as a community. Service makes me connected to the world like nothing else can do. I enjoy caring and helping out people” Emma Rose has a true passion for swimming and competition, and is a member of the MAC swim team. She swims and trains six days a week, totaling more than 16 hours per week. “Emma Rose has never once complained about getting up at 4:30 a.m. for practice,” says her mom, Jessica. Teammates comment that Emma Rose is always cheering for other swimmers during meets. Martin, her teacher, says “Emma Rose is truly a remarkably driven young woman who has great plans to impact this world, and I have no doubt she will!” Vivian McMahon clearly fulfills the requirements of the Al Tauscher Award. As an eighth-grader at West Sylvan Middle School, not only is she strong academically, but her ability to engage other students in positive collaborations has made her a favorite of classmates and staff. This year Vivian had an injury that prevented her from participating in the school’s dance recital. Rather than sit and watch the performance, Vivian came up with the idea to be the emcee for the evening. She wrote the script and did such a great job that the emcee position will be implemented in upcoming recitals. Vivian cherishes her opportunities at MAC. She participates in dance classes and swimming lessons, and says “some of my closest friends now are people I’ve met through MAC.” She enjoys attending and bringing friends to MAC Junior Dances and especially likes being able to go to Timbers games.

Al Tauscher Junior Award Recipients

Vivian enjoys volunteering and takes advantage of many opportunities in the community and at MAC. You can find her picking up beach litter with SOLVE, helping coach youth soccer, or assisting little ones at the MAC Easter Egg Hunt. Vivian’s English and history teacher Dan Polzin told us, “although I am not surprised by her nomination for this award, I am so very pleased that others recognize the positive energy and influence Vivian brings to the world around her. I am so very proud to be her teacher and feel strongly that you could not ask for a more appropriate person to recognize with this award.” WM

Al Tauscher was an inspirational instructor, coach and youth mentor who joined MAC as an athletic member in 1915 and continued that association until his retirement in 1983. Each year the Member Events Committee accepts award nominations and reviews the candidates. The award has recognized and honored more than 100 teen and junior members. The award includes two age groups: juniors (grades six through eight) and teens (grades nine through 12). A nominee must demonstrate exceptional leadership, inspirational behavior, great teamwork, and participation in extracurricular interests, and community service. Nominees must maintain strong academic standing, and must participate in MAC social and athletic activities. MAY 2017

Water Safety Tips for Summer As we approach the sunny days of summer, it is important to keep water safety in mind. Neighborhood pools, lakes, rivers and the ocean become popular places for seeking relief from the heat, and people cooling off in the water must be aware of potential dangers. Did you know that drowning is the leading cause of unintentional death among children ages 1-5 in the United States? The aquatics industry hopes to eradicate these preventable tragedies through education and awareness. The most important thing parents can do is be vigilant about watching their children in

and around water, not only outdoors, but, in bathtubs, around home pools and in community pools as well. Some other tips include: • Register your children for swimming lessons at a young age and continue until they’ve completed the program. Adults who can’t swim should enroll as well. • Always put nonswimmers in U.S. Coast Guard approved and properly fitted lifejackets. Those wearing lifejackets should always be within arm’s reach of a responsible adult. • Parents should always designate a water watcher. This responsible adult should be in charge of supervising and watching the swimmers in their group and not be distracted by phones, reading materials or others outside of the water. The water watcher should be able to swim and, ideally, be CPR-certified. • Always know and understand the type of water in which you and your children are swimming. Water in lakes, streams and the ocean acts very differently than the calm, clear waters of a pool, posing a unique variety of risks. Continued on page 54

AQUATICS

MAC Aquatics Programs The club offers an incredible variety of programs to help you become acclimated with the water, learn to swim or become a better swimmer. • Family and open swims – Family swim is offered at many times throughout the week. One of the best times to bring little ones is during the Shallow Water Open Swim, offered at the West Pool. During these times the floor is set to 2-feet so young swimmers can enjoy the benefits of playing with their parents in an environment where everyone can walk around on the pool floor. To supplement Shallow Water Open Swim, we also have our inflatable Wibit! Wiggle Bridge Open Swim is the last Saturday afternoon of each month for swimmers comfortable in deep water. • Kayak and stand-up paddling – The Outdoor Activities Program offers exclusive kayak and stand-up paddling (SUP) camps with former U.S. National Team kayaker Sam Drevo this summer. The five-day camps allow participants to gain experience with flat-water kayaks, river kayaks, inflatable kayaks, rafts and stand-up paddleboards. For more information, contact the Outdoor Department at 503-517-7575. • Lap swimming – Since 2013, MAC has won the trophy for most yards swam during the Great Lakes Swim Competition each February. This was our most successful year yet. MAC members swam a combined 6,466 miles, the equivalent of swimming from Portland to Taipei, Taiwan. • Lifeguard, CPR, AED and First-Aid Training – MAC offers a variety of Red Cross training courses throughout the year. Classes generally occur during spring and winter breaks, with condensed classes offered on weekends during the spring and summer. Members and nonmembers are welcome to register for classes. • SCUBA – MAC’s Outdoor Department, in conjunction with PADI (Professional Association of Diving Instructors), offers scuba diving classes for MAC members in the West Pool. PADI is the world’s leading scuba-diving training organization, offering a full range of dive courses from beginning to professional levels.

• Splash – Don’t miss out on this year’s Splash program at the Sun Deck and Sun Deck Pool throughout the summer. This is a great time for families to enjoy the sun, food and family open swims. • Swim School – MAC’s Swim School program offers classes and clinics for all ages and abilities. We offer weekday afternoon and weekend options. Our fun, experienced instructors also are available for private swim lessons. • Swim Team – MAC’s competitive swim team, together with the precompetitive program, has grown to a record number. MAC took third place in the 11-14 age group at the Oregon state meet, placing in the top three four years in a row. The 15-and-over swimmers represent MAC at Senior Sectionals, Junior and Senior Nationals, and compete with swimmers in the national rankings. Swim team offers a competitive track for all levels, from 7 years old and up. • Synchronized Swimming – MAC’s nationally recognized team and coaching staff spend hours at the pool each week honing their craft. The club’s 11-12 age group team recently finished in the top 10 at the Junior Olympics, while the masters team won a gold and four silver medals at the U.S. Masters Championships. Classes and camps for all ages and abilities are offered throughout the year. • Water Fitness – There are so many health benefits of water fitness for all populations, from the extremely fit to seniors and therapy patients. There are cardiac and respiratory benefits when the chest is immersed in water, low impact on joints, and potential to not only strength-train but get a great cardio workout at the same time. MAC offers a wide range of programs for all fitness levels including aquatic personal training. • Water Polo – Coach Aaron Bishow leads our water polo class for ages 5 to 12 from 6:45-7:30 p.m. on Wednesday. Players learn basic skills and understanding of the sport in a recreational setting. Bishow also leads our recreational water polo program from 7-8:30 p.m. Monday, which is appropriate for all skill levels. The only requirement is comfort in the deep end and basic swimming skills.

Dylan King, MAC’s Amateur Athlete of the Year Y

of tennis after playing Division 1 at the University of Portland, and we would spend most nights hitting at the MAC courts.

What does winning the Mel Fox Award mean to you? DYLAN KING: I am honored to be selected for the Mel Fox Award, especially considering the other fantastic athletes who were nominated. MAC produces so many champion athletes, and to be recognized alongside them is very gratifying.

When did you start playing at MAC, and how has it helped with your development as a player? DK: I started taking lessons at MAC when I was 8 years old to supplement the hitting that I did with my dad. I took lessons with all of the different MAC pros, especially Waldemar (Holowetzki). He was instrumental to my development as a junior player, and I learned most of my technical stroke advice and match strategy from him.

How and when did you first get involved in tennis? DK: I started playing tennis with my dad, Steve. He had taken over 20 years off

What made you select Yale as your college of choice? DK: I chose Yale because I felt it had the best combination of competitive

What was it like to have a rematch in the state finals against Andrew Finkelman, your friend and teammate at Grant High School? DK: It was pretty unique playing against Andrew in the finals, not only because he was my teammate and we had played the year before, but also because he was one of my best buddies and training partners. I think both years we did a good job of blocking out the person on the other side of the net and focusing on what we needed to do to win the match. Do you consider yourself a highly competitive person? DK: I’m not an ultra-competitive person, but I think that putting expectations on myself helps me perform better on and off the court. I think it helps me focus more and have more confidence in myself in high-pressure situations. You are a state tennis champion, valedictorian of your high school and student at Yale. How do you stay focused and what motivates you? DK: Having a balance between school, tennis and extracurricular activities helps me stay focused and not get tired of any one activity. Every day, I am impressed by my teammates and classmates at Yale. They remind me that I have to keep working hard in order to do well. WM

The Truth About Antibiotics R

ecently, I have read several publications, including a New York Times article that suggests there is an antibiotics crisis and that the solution might come from botanical treatments. I highly recommend reading the full article by Ferris Jabr, which can be found at www.nytimes.com. What the article suggests, and my training emphasizes, is that much can be relearned from traditional plant-based medicine. Below are some of the points of the article that resonated with me. Chemical analysis of plants reveals therapeutic benefits that can be studied and reproduced in a clinical or pharmaceutical setting. Most antibiotics prescribed today are synthetically manufactured, yet their origins are in nature. Penicillin, for instance, originated from fungus. Antibiotics are important for the treatment of many common bacterial diseases, but unfortunately, there is an increase in antibiotic-resistant bacteria. There are two primary reasons for this: prescribing antibiotics for conditions that do not require them, and overuse of antibiotics on livestock. It is not surprising that scientists are looking back to nature and how plants adapt,

survive and thrive in conditions less sterile and more formidable than ours. The key to plants’ survival is their development of extremely complex molecular structures that help them adapt to the environment. Therefore, it seems plausible that medications of the future can be made by re-examining plants and how they have been used medicinally in the past. Jabr’s article discusses the wisdom we can learn from our ancestors. He cites an example of a cure for malaria that was necessitated when, during the Vietnam War, malaria became resistant to chloroquine. Scientists found, in an ancient medical text, a method of extracting wormwood’s medicinal properties, which became one of the most successful treatments for malaria. As a naturopath, I routinely look to nature as a cure or form of treating disease and improving quality of life. I appreciate the importance of Western medicine and refer to or use Western medicine when the situation calls for it. But I certainly experience and appreciate the healing power of nature and natural medicines. Comments, concerns, ideas for topics? Email me at lnelson@themac.com –Dr. Lindsey Nelson WM

ATHLETICS

SWIMMING

Swimming to Statewide Success O ver the past few weeks, the MAC swim team had the opportunity to compete in three championship meets. The club’s athletes swam unbelievably fast at all the meets and achieved best times across the board, multiple top-five places, and even some new team records. Three athletes qualified for the 10 & under state championship meet, but only one was able to attend. Congratulations to Gigi Abernathy for competing in the state meet this year. MAC athletes shattered their best times and notched several top-five placings during the 11-14 state championships meet in Tualatin Hills the next weekend. Top-five finishers were: • Sydney Wilson: 5th place in the 50 back, 100 back, and 200 free • Graham Inman: 4th place in the 50 fly • Matthias Kreutzer: 1st place in the 50 free, 100 free, 200 free, 100 fly, 100 IM and 2nd place in the 50 fly • Claire Cooney: 5th place in the mile, and 4th place in the 1000 free • Adelaide Foden-Vencil: 5th place in the mile, 200 back, 100 fly, and 3rd place in the 200 fly

The cherry on top during the meet came from Matthias Kreutzer, who set six MAC team records in the 50 free, 100 free, 200

free, 50 fly, 100 fly and the 100 IM. The coaches can’t remember this ever happening before – six swims and six MAC team records!

Eleanora Kemp placed second in the 200 fly, achieving her new senior sectional qualifying standard. Elise Kreutzer finished third in the 500 free.

ATHLETICS review takes place to vet those most qualified to represent Lincoln High School. LHS’s Constitution Team has won 23 state championships and six national titles. Lincoln High School Principal Peyton Chapman had this to say about the Constitution Team: “Constitution Team is one of the best programs I have seen in a public or private school setting. Lincoln’s Constitution Team is a family of talented, hardworking, motivated, dedicated students who work collaboratively in units of six students each, to research topics in depth and applying it to historic and current issues by citing legal theory and case law.”

MAC Company and Crew dancers Gretchen Rudolph, Marissa Talcott and Vivian Urness are no strangers to the rigors and demands of competitive dance. Under the watchful and encouraging eyes of Dance Company Manager/Head Coach Laura Haney and Associate Head Coach Erin Zintek, these young ladies practice between six and seven days a week during the season. That’s not the only competition season for which they dutifully prepare.

On Friday, May 5, the Early Birds celebrate Cinco de Mayo, with Mexican treats and music at Waterfront Park by the Salmon Street Springs Fountain in Water Front Park. Cinco de Mayo commemorates the victory of the Mexican army against the bigger and better-equipped French army in 1862 – a victory that prevented France from helping the Confederates during the Civil War. The festivities also celebrate Mexican pride and culture. Everyone is welcome to come to the waterfront between 5:45 and 6:45 a.m. and enjoy the holiday food and drinks. You might get to strike a piñata. –Jan M. Collins

Fit Zone: A Better Space for Youth Workouts Who said workouts have to be boring? MAC’s new Fit Zone – built for youth ages 7 to 13 – is a bright and airy space that includes virtual reality bikes, an interactive light wall, a video-based interval station, suspension bands and plenty of room to roam. It’s the perfect spot for an after-school workout with friends. The Fit Zone replaces the former Junior Weight Room with a functional training space that provides more room and better equipment for workouts. The space is open and staffed by the Youth Programs Department seven days a week. Spring hours are 37 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 9 a.m.-2 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. We will adjust more or less after the summer depending on the usage.

Summer Camp in the Fit Zone Children ages 6 to 14 can get acquainted with the new Fit Zone during the Lets Get Fit Camp this summer. Campers complete drills that improve their speed, agility and quickness, and have fun along the way. Sessions are offered for ages 8 to 14 the weeks of July 24 and Aug. 14, and for ages 6 to 10 the weeks of July 10 and Aug. 7.

Opposites Attract at HIIT/Yoga Fusion Class HIIT, or high intensity interval training, is a technique in which you give all-out efforts through quick bursts of exercise, followed by short recovery periods. This type of training gets and keeps your heart rate up and burns more fat in less time. HIIT workouts are one of the most effective means of improving cardiovascular health and respiratory endurance, and can give your metabolism a boost for up to 48 hours after

you complete the workout. A typical fatburning HIIT workout structure consists of a five-minute warm-up, followed by 20 seconds on and 10 seconds rest. Exercises can consist of squats, mountain climbers, lunges, jumping jacks, high-knee marches and many more. There are other benefits to a HIIT workout besides boosting metabolism. It’s quick and convenient and you don’t need equipment, so you can do it almost anywhere. HIIT workouts usually last about 30 to 40 minutes. This is where yoga comes into the equation. You need flexibility to complete your total body fitness. The last 20 minutes of class includes yoga poses to stretch your muscles, increasing your flexibility. We focus on a series of poses to address the specific muscles you just worked, keeping you strong and limber. Yoga connects you back to your breath and leaves you in a relaxed state. It’s an excellent way to finish a hard workout!

Modernizing the Rules of the Game Since 1952, The USGA and R&A (Royal & Ancient Golf Club) have released a joint publication outlining the Rules of Golf. Rules are consistently updated to maintain the tradition of the sport while accommodating new technology. In March, the USGA and R&A announced proposed rule changes to go into effect Jan. 1, 2019. The rules modernization project has three goals: to be more easily understood and applied by all golfers; to be more consistent, simple and fair; and to reinforce the game’s principles and character. A few of the major proposed changes include: • Reducing the time to search for a ball from 5 minutes to 3 minutes • Allowing a player to repair spike marks on the green • Allowing a player to drop a ball from any height • Allowing a player to putt with the flag in the hole for no penalty • Relaxing the rules in penalty areas. A complete list of all the proposed changes may be found on the USGA website at www.USGA.org/Rules. The USGA and R&A are accepting online feedback on rules changes through Aug. 31, 2017. To submit feedback, visit USGA.org/rules.

HANDBALL

Championships Serve Up Keen Competition The 2017 MAC Handball Championships, played over three days in February, were marked by keen competition and superior sportsmanship. Returning from a series of injuries, Roger Swanson won the veterans group with his steady play and pinpoint serves, while the amazing Otto Van Walstijn took second place, showing that octogenarians can do very well in this demanding sport. Long-time player Greg Howell had to use all of his experience and wits to fend off a determined and vastly improved young player, Brian Duncan, to win the B singles class. Duncan’s mobility and skills at retrieving tough, deep shots kept him in the match, but Howell’s ability to finish off long rallies made the difference. Brian Lee had to overcome a badly injured knee in recent years, but put his rehab to good use to win the A class. Using excellent

court position against his opponents, Lee parlayed his strong offensive game and ambidexterity to wins all week, including a tough finals match against the ageless Dave Delaney, himself a master at positioning and kill shots. Lee made a few more amazing shots than Lucky Dave in one of the best, well-played matches of the tournament. In the Open bracket, Stephen Stenberg used outstanding retrieval skills and just enough offense to outlast long-time champ Matt Steele 21-19, 19-21, 11-7 to win his first MAC Open title. The match featured Steele’s kills with either hand and booming five-wall fist shots against Stenberg’s impressive quickness, which allowed him to chase down shots while still making tough return shots. Bill Flowers, a veteran player for many decades, later made it known that he thought this was one of the best performances and examples of good sportsmanship that he had seen in a long while.

Oregon State Singles Six MAC handball stalwarts made the trip to Corvallis for the USHA Oregon State Singles tournament, but only one returned with any hardware – Conor Casey for winning the Open consolation bracket. Stenberg and Matt Steele ran into each other again, with Steele prevailing in the quarterfinals this time,

KARATE

Why Not Give Karate a Try? With summer just around the corner, parents are beginning to think about warmweather activities. Why not look at an activity

ATHLETICS that lasts beyond the summer – one that parents can do with their kids? Though MAC provides kids a variety of excellent camps, only karate offers an activity that families can do together into the school year. MAC Karate has been part of the club since 1975. The instructor, Bill Plapinger, holds a fourth-degree black belt in Shindo Jinen Ryu from Japan Karate Association, Ryobukai. Plapinger has been teaching karate at MAC for 17 years. Karate classes offer the more traditional training that karate is known for, but also provides opportunities for competition. Classes focus on introducing basic blocks, kicks, punches and stances. Classes also introduce kata or forms, an essential component to good Japanese karate programs. The beginners’ class will not be your hardest workout – as you move up, classes become more strenuous. The benefits of karate practice are well documented, but these four stand out: • Improve physical and mental health • Strengthen self-esteem and confidence • Learn how to set goals • Make new friendships Another great reason to take karate is that all students participate. No one sits on the bench. Everyone participates and grows at their own pace.

Summer program The summer beginner program is a good time to start karate. Classes are offered for ages 5 and older. Students ages 7 and older can move up to junior or adults classes after the beginners’ class. And yes, the beginners’ class is appropriate for adults, too. The class runs for six weeks. The cost includes a gi (uniform). The best part is, due to summer vacations, classes are typically smaller than during the school year, resulting in students getting more hands-on instruction. If you would like to observe a class, feel free to join us in Studio 3. The junior class starts at 5:30 p.m. There is no need to contact anyone; the doors are always open.

Women’s U.S. Doubles A group of MAC women traveled to Denver for the U.S. Squash Doubles Championships in March. Wendy Comstock and Marcia Wood played as a team, Carol Robertson and Anne Griffin were a team, and Phoebe Trubowitz played with Shirin Kaufman. Robertson and Griffin came in fifth in the women’s 55-plus Division and Wendy and Marcia came in sixth. Trubowitz and her partner came in third in the Women’s 40-plus Division. The Saturday night party was at the Governor’s Mansion, because Gov. John Hickenlooper is a squash player and was playing in the men’s 65-plus Division. Wood reports the altitude was definitely a factor to contend with: U.S. Squash was debuting a new high-altitude doubles ball last week for this tournament that bounced less to compensate for the altitude, but it ended up bouncing a lot less than the usual ball here in Portland. –Nancy Keates

It’s hard to ask for a better year than that. But 12 Masters Swimmers took success to the next level by earning a staggering 58 Top 10 national rankings – with some earning the coveted honor a few times over. Together, their efforts prove MAC watermen and women are a force to be reckoned with, and you can be sure they’re on national swimmers’ radars for 2017. Those who clinched this impressive feat are, in no particular order: Scot Sullivan (50-54 age group), Jill Marie Asch (50-54), Brent Washburne (55-59), Jessica Stacy (2529), Hailey Bambusch (25-29), Ted Bonus (25-29), Jordan Porter (18-24), Eric Wan (50-54), Lauren Binder (65-69), Kurt Grote (40-44), Brad Bachulis (45-49) and Catherine Eastman (30-34).

TriRun Continued from page 71 Hawaii, and it became clear that it was going to stay until after the race. The storm brought huge swells and a lot of rain. “Prior to the race I was focused on making sure I swam strong, and then got after it on the bike, which is by far my strongest discipline. But as race day came near, we all realized that it was going to be about just trying to finish the race. “Ocean conditions were black flag, meaning no swimming, but not for XTERRA racers. We started with a 1-mile swim in water that had up to 15-foot swells and huge breakers. Getting through the breakers out to the ocean was very difficult, but getting back to the shore without getting pummeled was even harder and much more stressful. I had a huge smile leaving the ocean, which my husband mistook for me having fun swimming. In reality, the smile was because that part was over and I got to get on my bike. The bike course is set up very well for me. It had a few muddy sections in the pre-ride a few days prior to the race, which is good for a Portland girl. “Unfortunately, with all the rain, about 6 miles were barely rideable, for 2 miles we had to hike with our bikes on our back, and the last 10 miles we could ride. With some mechanical bike issues, I was happy just to be able to finish the bike. The run was by far the easiest part. With the rough ocean and muddy conditions, the race took me approximately two hours longer than it should have, and I was exhausted when I finished.” In addition, in the dramatic last 50 meters of the run, Usher passed a fellow age-grouper to take the third-place age group finish.

Indoor Sprint The annual Indoor Sprint Triathlon, though not as tough as Usher’s endeavor, was a challenge for those who participated in March. Our competitors ranged in age from nine to 69. The fastest male finisher was Stephen Scott at 30:43, and the swiftest female was Lina Reiss at 38:38.

MAC Mile Get fit with the Tri/Run Committee in May. The annual MAC Mile returns at 6 p.m. Wednesday, May 10. Join fellow speedsters to log your fastest four laps around the track. If running isn’t for you, just come out and cheer on the field. There are several different categories based on age and skill level. Also starting in May are open-water training swims at Hagg Lake. These are group swims led by committee members and coaches, often followed by a bike ride. The first swim is slated

WALKING AND HIKING

Love the Columbia Gorge? Check This Out Guidebook author Scott Cook visits MAC at 7 p.m. Tuesday, May 16, to talk about explorations featured in the latest edition of his popular book, Curious Gorge. First published in 2002, this fourth edition adds 67 new entries to the 79 existing hikes and explorations. “This edition is more directed to locals than visitors,” Cook says. “It gets into more obscure, off-trail exploring than a pure hiking guide. The book has still got all the greatest hits – the classic hikes everyone’s heard of – but also a load of new things that many people don’t know about.” Cook takes readers on in-river sloshes to hidden swimming holes and waterfalls. He drops them off the elegant Maryhill Loops Road hike into a canyon, to the decaying remains of Sam Hill’s failed concrete dam. He shows them where to find hiding-in-plainsight glacial erratics. For each adventure, readers learn stories distilled from Cook’s decades of gorge research and explorations. A Hood River resident for 20 years, Cook’s insider knowledge pays off for readers: even for well-known trails, the book reveals obscure historic nuggets and treasures for hikers to search for along the way. His other guidebooks explore Bend, New Zealand and Portland. The day after the talk, Wednesday, May 17, Cook leads a gorge hike for MAC members and guests to Upper Catherine Creek Canyon and Tracy Hill. The 6-mile hike climbs about 1,300 feet and travels above

YOGA

Exploring the Myofascial Lines Friday Focus, 6:45p.m. June 2 Have you ever had a muscle that was so tight no amount of stretching seems to loosen it up? Recent research suggests that muscle tightness goes beyond the muscle fibers and is connected to the surrounding fascia. Exploring myofascial lines helps us look beyond the muscle that expresses symptoms to the root of the problem, which could point to a muscle above or below as the culprit. The idea is that muscles do things individually, but they also influence other muscles within the fascia webbing. What are the myofascial lines? A fascial line is a line of pull that transmits strain and movement while connecting the body. Fascia is a form of connective tissue, a gooey, fluid, honey-like substance of fibers and elastin that surrounds and stabilizes muscles, bones, nerves, organs, etc. Fascia affects muscle quality; when the fascia becomes tough due to dehydration, it loses optimal function. By lubricating muscles, fascia provides the slide and glide of our muscles as well as the form and shape. Imagine fascia as the water that permeates a sponge: all the nooks and crannies of open space are covered and protected by fascia in the way water fills a sponge. It’s up to us to make sure we nourish our fascia and prevent the sponge from drying out. Join us as we explore the myofascial lines in a 90-minute Friday Focus with yoga and Pilates instructor Mandee Pearson at 6:45 p.m. June 2. We will take advantage of the elastic properties of the fascial web and enhance that elasticity, bringing hydration to the fascial network with a sense of mindfulness. We will pay particular attention to several of the myofascial lines that often contribute to things like bad posture, text neck and shoulder pain.

From the Archives The Sunset Bistro and Splash are not the first outdoor dining options at MAC. The club has experimented with a variety of outdoor dining spaces over the years. After a brief stint as an outdoor reading room in the early 1950s, the north terrace was used for lunch and afternoon cocktails during summers in the late 1950s and the 1960s. These tables were exchanged for bleachers or other seating arrangements to accommodate more spectators during football and baseball games.
