The Twentieth President Rev. Mark Poorman, C.S.C. What was your reaction to becoming president? Gratitude. This University energizes me. It's a great collection of incredibly talented and accomplished people. What should people know about UP that they might not? We are producing extraordinary students here. They are the types of individuals that local, regional, and national employers need in their workforce. What is your vision? The best way I can begin to answer that question is to say that this University is going to continue to be a place of academic excellence; it will continue to a place where people are thoroughly engaged in the community; and it will continue to be a place where there is deep interest in the personal and spiritual formation of students. That's the consistent vision that the Congregation of Holy Cross has always brought here. Moments that have influenced you? My dad brought me to a soybean field (in Springfield, Illinois) when I was in the 8th grade. He turned to me and said, "This is where the temporary campus for the community college is going to be." It was early April and that September Lincoln Land Community College became the first institution of higher learning in the area. My dad was the founding president. Today, the school serves about 10,000 students. I'll never forget that scene. It taught me what hard work and a vision for an institution can accomplish. Priorities for the future? Infrastructure and scholarships. We need new classrooms and academic offices, as well as space for student services, and more residence halls. Further, students who want to be here and who can do the work should have the opportunity to do so with financial help. Learn more about the University of Portland and our Schools of Business, Education, Engineering, Nursing, the College of Arts and Sciences, and our Graduate School at up.edu. University of Portland.

rior to becoming involved with MAC committees, many areas of club governance were a mystery to me. Most of the time I never thought about these things at all … but when I did, I sensed that budgeting for club Henderson expenses and select- Darcy president ing the club’s trustees occurred rather haphazardly, with decisions being made by only a few people who were far removed from my own daily club experiences. It has been gratifying to learn how thoughtful and involved the budgeting and trusteenominating processes are. Both efforts are in full swing this month, making it timely to explain how decisions are made, and by whom.
Budgeting for 2015 In late spring, while the rest of us are finalizing summer vacation plans, MAC staff is busy examining their budgets line-by-line: gathering cost estimates, researching new ideas, and planning for programs, activities and improvements as far as 18 months in the future. Sport and event committees contribute to this effort by preparing budgets for their particular interest areas, anticipating (for example) the quantity of floral wire required to decorate the club for the holidays, or the cost of photos for the Early Birds bulletin board. The Member Events and Athletic committees review and revise sport and event budget requests, staff adds them to the multitude of expenses required for daily operations, and detailed operating budgets are compiled. Capital budgeting sometimes starts 10-plus years in advance, with various pieces of equipment and areas of the facility (from replacing the washing machines to renovation of the pools) earmarked for replacement in a particular year, based on life expectancy. But the detail work begins in early summer. Sport committees compile “wish lists” of new equipment or facility improvements; and staff researches and estimates the costs of committee requests and a multitude of other capital needs. From new trash cans to restroom remodels, each request (about 125 per year) is presented on a “capital expenditure request form,” with detailed information about the item’s price, purpose, impact and lifespan. Beginning in late September, the property budget subcommittee discusses, debates and fine-tunes the capital budget; in mid-October,
the full Property Committee reviews (and debates and tweaks) the subcommittee’s recommendations. A subgroup of the Budget and Finance Committee then does the same with the operating budget and the proposed capital budget. Revised budgets are reviewed by the full Budget and Finance Committee at its November meeting and presented to the Board of Trustees for approval. After yet more debate and discussion, the board approves final 2015 budgets (including any accompanying dues increase) in early December, and staff gets busy preparing for the coming year. Clearly, our dedicated staff spends countless hours preparing and presenting these budgets. In addition, 100-plus club members collectively invest more than 600 hours in budget meetings each year. I would be remiss if I did not acknowledge and thank the budget subcommittee chairs who are leading the way this year: Tom Bard (Property Committee), Diane Callaway (Budget and Finance Committee), Lorne Dauenhauer (Athletic Committee), and Carol Robertson (Member Events Committee). Thanks also to their subcommittee members, and to the event and sport committee members who prepared budgets for consideration.
Nominating trustee candidates Another activity impacting every club member, although less measurably, is the annual selection of new trustees to serve on the MAC Board of Trustees, a process that is neither haphazard nor a popularity contest. It is a thoughtful effort driven solely by club members and guided by MAC bylaws. In late August, the board identifies three former trustees and six members-at-large to serve on the Nominating Committee, collectively representing a broad range of club experiences and demographics. In September and October, they meet several times to consider all possible candidates for the board, weighing involvement in the club, professional and personal backgrounds, and the ability to work collaboratively in the best interest of MAC. Also considered are attributes needed to balance the overall makeup of the board. The committee may consult with the current board or former board members regarding particular attributes that might be desirable for service as a trustee; however, the names of candidates under consideration are kept confidential and the committee is not influenced by staff or trustees. I will be anxiously awaiting announcement of the names of the four new trustee candidates recommended by this year’s nominating committee, which will be posted in the lobby and on the website on Tuesday, Nov. 4.

had the opportunity to attend the City Athletic Club Managers conference in Philadelphia in July. I previously visited Philadelphia but had never stayed nor visited the Union League Club. This Norm Rich club is a historical General Manager masterpiece that has all the trappings of the best club in our group of 35 city athletic clubs. Platinum Clubs of America ranks it the No. 1 city club in the country. I cannot disagree with fellow managers that the Union League is very deserving of this honor. While many clubs would be my secondplace choices, my choice for No. 1 is the Union League. I encourage everyone visiting Philadelphia to stay or visit the Union League, stroll among spectacular art, dine in the best restaurant in Philadelphia, where only members (resident or reciprocal) can dine, smoke a cigar with fellow women and gentlemen members, and revisit some early American history lessons. What did we learn at this conference? We shared with one another common issues that many clubs face. While membership is a very important issue to most clubs, I am happy to report that our membership is strongest among American clubs and equal to several Canadian ones. Capital spending by most clubs is increasing nationally; everyone is suffering from sticker shock from rising prices due to a busy construction industry and heating economy. We talked about computer software, websites that do not fulfill members wants and needs, the (unaffordable) Affordable Care Act, succession planning, athletics and the costs of free classes, and social media and other methods of effective communications. There was little time to play, but we had an opportunity to bid farewell and celebrate retiring managers who have made a career in our club industry. We all agreed that our members are the most important part of any club and agreed how important it is to say yes rather than no. I know I come back to MAC with a better appreciation of what good work the club does in exceeding expectations, but we’re never satisfied that we do enough. The conference is an opportunity to see what
others do well, where we can improve, and borrow great ideas. After these conferences, I always reach out to the board to see how we can partner to make a member’s experience even better. Most years, I am glad to return home to MAC to implement ideas that we have shared in an effort to make us more outstanding. The club industry is changing, and we must change with it to remain competitive. On this particular trip, I know I suffered from a good case of club envy. When I think about the value of attending these meetings, I remind myself how worthwhile they are. Many of the managers I have come to know are some of my distant best friends. I have known many of these managers for 13 years or more. Some were classmates, and with others, our careers have crossed paths over many years and several jobs. I have learned from them all. Even after their retirement, I have stayed friends with many colleagues. Clubs are about relationships, and these are some of my longer friendships. MAC is about relationships between members and staff. I have come to learn that attending these meetings and extending these relationships is an extension of club life. I will take lessons learned, share them with our staff, committees, trustees and boards, and seek to implement what is supported by these groups. Sharing knowledge is a great way to educate one another. The board has endorsed a few trustees taking trips to several clubs this year to see how they operate and what we can learn from them. Bob Nunn visited the East Bank Club in Chicago, Janice Marquis visited the Arbutus and Hollyburn clubs in Vancouver, and Mike Wells will visit the Granite Club in Toronto once their giant expansion is completed in the fall. Our peer clubs are ripe with lessons, facilities and new ways of doing things better or differently.
MAC Lottery This month, we will conduct our lottery to begin a process early next year to admit new members. While we wish everyone could be selected, that’s not how lotteries work; some win, others do not. We do look forward to welcoming winning lottery applicants into membership. I cannot quantify the value of membership in the few words left in my column. Priceless is the simplest way I am able to express it. WM

all is here with youth soccer, college football games, Halloween and the inevitable return of earlier sunsets and gray days. It can be a frighteningly difficult time to stay fit too, with tailgates and cozy fireside meals with lots Ed Stoner of beer and wine. Fall Athletic Director does, however, offer all kinds of delicious and nutritious foods, from apples to root vegetables, but we often have a knack for taking healthy foods (think sweet potatoes) and making them decadently rich. When simmered in cream, baked in pie crust, sautéed in butter, or topped with cheese, these foods go from good to bad. “Foods like apples, squash, nuts, and pumpkin are super nutritious, but the nutritional goodness is masked when you add lots of extra calories,” says Tara Gidus, a spokeswoman for the American Dietetic Association. And just 100 extra calories per day in your diet can add 10 pounds over the course of a year. So enjoy fall’s splendor, but be careful to keep it from becoming a nutritional nightmare. If you do find yourself carrying a few extra pounds this fall, there are numerous ways at MAC to shed them like leaves from a tree. Take a spin class. Work with a personal trainer. Swim some laps in the 50-meter Pool when it reopens in November. Or, take a free introductory squash lesson (not on how to harvest and prepare it, but on how to play the sport) from new Head Squash Pro Ashley Read, who is one of just four coaches in the United States to have his Level 4 Elite Coaching certification. Ashley can work with you regardless of your ability, experience or interest in playing singles or doubles squash. Last month’s Winged M featured a new program for celebrating birthdays as MAC, so if your child has a Fall Birthday, consider having his or her party here. You can get more information at MACBirthdays.com or by calling 503-517-BDAY. Visit the AD Blog page on themac.com throughout the fall regarding the progress on the renovation of our 50m pool, and as always, please let me know your thoughts via e-mail (estoner@themac.com) or Twitter (@ MAC_AthleticDir).

FACES IN THE CLUB MAC synchro coach Lucie Svrcinova, right, and member Sarah Beth Pfohman won gold medals for their duet in the 2014 FINA World Masters Championship held in Montreal, Canada in July. The duo won gold in the 30-39 age group, while Svrcinova also won individual gold in the 40-49 age group. The FINA (Fédération Internationale de Natation) World Masters Championships is the federation’s biggest competition in terms of participation, welcoming swimmers, divers and water polo players from ages 25 to 100-plus to compete every two years. Svrcinova has been head coach of the synchro program for over a year, and was assistant coach for eight years. She is originally from the Czech Republic, starting her swimming career at the age of seven and swimming for the Czech Olympic team at the 1992 Barcelona Summer Olympics.

Senior member Scott Schaffer was recently named President of the Oregon Gymnastics Judges Association. He just returned from a prestigious position judging the P&G National Gymnastics Championships in Pittsburgh. While at Stanford, Scott was a two-time All-American in gymnastics and competed internationally for the U.S. He now judges men’s gymnastics, is a frequent judge of Division 1 NCAA meets, and has his international Category 2 rating, allowing him to judge Olympic level competitions. In addition, he enjoys family hikes, reading and composing at the piano. Schaffer is also very active in MAC’s committee system.
Junior member Brett Walker has had a very successful year across the board. Brett, 15, qualified for bouldering, sport and speed, and competitive climbing nationals, placing third in his age group at bouldering nationals to secure a spot on the U.S. National Team. In July, he went to sport and speed nationals and placed sixth in sport climbing, just barely missing a U.S. team invite, and got a personal record on the speed wall at 10 meters in 7.98 seconds, earning 20th place. Brett has been on the climbing team for seven years. To round it all off, he finished his freshman year at Lake Oswego High School with a 4.0 GPA.
New assistant climbing coach Flannery ShayNemirow has been climbing for over half her life. Since her first competition, she’s been an integral part of the U.S. climbing scene. Over the years, she’s done it all, competing at the national level in bouldering and sport climbing, setting and forerunning international competitions, coaching top athletes and crushing outside. Flann is one of few U.S. (or global, for that matter) women to climb multiple V12s. She’s climbed all over the world, and spent the last couple years climbing outside almost every day. Now she’s at MAC helping to get the climbing team’s athletes to the next level for the upcoming season.
MAC Scholar Athlete Gigi Stoll still has a year of high school golf left to play, but in August, the Beaverton High School senior was swinging with the pros. Stoll shot 1-under par at the Portland Classic LPGA Tournament in August, making the cut and placing 52nd out of 135 golfers. Stoll gained entry into the tournament by winning an amateur qualifying event, and didn’t let the pressure of the pro field fray her nerves. She made the cut in dramatic fashion with a birdie on the 18th hole on the second day of the tournament. With the exception of a 66 by Jaye Marie Green in the second round, Stoll shot a lower score than her playing partners in every round. October 2014
Pakhar Sandhu was recently named Securitas USA’s Supervisor of the Year for its Portland branch. MAC contracts with the company to provide security at the club. Sandhu has worked at MAC since he moved to America in 1989 from the Fiji Islands, where he served as senior education officer for the country’s high schools. He was promoted to supervisor in 1993, and has held the position ever since. Sandhu was previously named Security Officer of the Year. Sandhu and his team take care of a many tasks for the club, maintaining a security presence in the clubhouse and the Parking Structure. He also serves on the club’s emergency response subcommittee.

Culinary Guest Chef Dinner with Lincoln’s Louis Jenn Louis, chef and owner of Lincoln, Sunshine Tavern and Culinary Artistry, and winner of Food & Wine’s Best New Chef award in 2012, visits MAC for a guest chef dinner Friday, Oct. 10. Louis opened the Culinary Artistry catering company in 2000, but became a household name over the past several years with the opening of her two restaurants. She was a semifinalist for the 2010 and 2011 James Beard Best Chef Northwest awards, and Lincoln was named to Condé Nast Traveler’s “Hot List” of 50 top new restaurants in North America. We caught up with Louis as she was putting the finishing touches on her new cookbook, Pasta by Hand. What do you find most motivating and most challenging about working in this city? It is a great place to cook! Most motivating: the amazing quality of ingredients! What flavors and/or ingredients are currently inspiring your work? I am very inspired by seasonality. I really enjoy taking a single ingredient and using it in different applications. Recently, a spice blender in New York gave me a gift of a dozen spice blends that have been wonderful to work with. Using flavors that I do not typically work with keeps me creative and builds flavor and depth. What do you find key to successfully managing not one, but three different businesses? Organization! Our businesses are so different that they take special attention in very different ways. Keeping organized and present with each business and with staff keeps me close with each one. Where would you travel for food right now and why? What would you eat there? I really want to go to San Sebastian. The food and culture sound amazing and I have not been to Spain in many years, and know I would learn so much. We can’t wait for the release of your cookbook and gnocchi. What inspired you to focus on this food? When we opened Lincoln, I promised to only make fresh pasta. I made many types of sheeted pasta (linguini, fettuccine) and started making gnocchi. Soon I collected 25 different regional Italian dumplings and knew there were so many more. My book, Pasta by Hand, will be out Spring 2015 with 65 dumpling recipes – all authentic!

In Memoriam Vic Atiyeh Feb. 20, 1923 – July 20, 2014 Senior family preferred member Victor George Atiyeh, Oregon’s 32nd governor, died July 20. He was 91. Born in Portland on Feb. 20, 1923, to Syrian immigrant parents George and Linda (Asly) Atiyeh, he graduated from Washington High School, and attended the University of Oregon, where he was an active member of the Phi Gamma Delta fraternity and played guard for the Ducks football team. He joined MAC in 1952 and enjoyed playing squash and handball for many years, as well as hosting special family celebrations at the club. Atiyeh married Dolores Hewitt on July 5, 1944. In that same year his father died, and at age 21, Vic Atiyeh took over the family business, Atiyeh Brothers rug and carpet store. He was president and actively involved in the business for 35 years. Once he left office in 1987, he became Atiyeh International, Ltd.’s board chairman. A major emphasis for Gov. Atiyeh was economic development, especially international trade. He was dubbed “Trader Vic” for his many trade missions seeking investments in Oregon from international companies. He led a total of 20 international business trade missions, mostly to the Far East and Middle East. His son Tom participated in the 1984 trade mission to People’s Republic of China and to the Middle East, including a visit to the Atiyeh home village of Amar el Husn in Syria. During his time in office Oregon gained significant investments from companies such as NEC, Fujitsu America, Seiko Epson and others. In 1986, Governor Atiyeh officially opened the State Games of Oregon by lighting a torch at the state capitol, which was relayed by the State Games relay team to Portland Civic Stadium (now Providence Park). He and his wife Dolores arrived by helicopter, landing in Civic Stadium, to help open the inaugural State Games of Oregon. He continued to be the Honorary Chairman until his death. Gov. Atiyeh joined the Special Olympics Oregon Board of Directors in 2009, after serving for two years as a member of the Honorary Advisory Board. For a total of 11 years, Governor Atiyeh also hosted Special Olympics Oregon’s signature corporate event, The Governors’ Gold Awards. His fellow governors elected to present him a Lifetime Achievement Award on behalf of Oregon’s citizens, which was presented at The Governors’ Gold Awards event in 2009. He is survived by his immediate family, wife Dolores, son Tom Atiyeh (wife Leslie)
and Suzanne Atiyeh, and five grandchildren. A state memorial event took place September 3rd in Salem at the Oregon Capitol. Remembrances may be made to the Governor Victor Atiyeh Collection at Pacific University, 2043 College Way, Forest Grove, OR 97116.
Irene A. Felter May 5, 1916 – July 11, 2014 Irene A. Felter passed away on July 11 in Springfield. She was 98. Born Irene Viola Anttila, on May 5, 1916, in Mountain Iron, Minn., the only child of Victor and Olga Kangas Anttila, Irene lived with her family in Waukegan, Ill., Butte, Mont., and then Tieton, Wash., where she graduated from Highland High School in 1933. After graduation, she moved to Portland, where she became a beautician. She married William Charles Felter, from Portland, on February 7, 1939, and raised two children. Irene served as president of the Women’s Auxiliary to the Oregon State Pharmaceutical Association. She was a MAC member for nearly 50 years, and excelled as a distance swimmer and with the club’s synchronized swimming group, performing in state and national championships. She earned scores of trophies in that sport as well as in golf. She was gifted in arts and crafts, including the Japanese art of flower arranging, sewing, bookmaking, and especially calligraphy. She was an avid gardener and reader, and she dearly loved her Cairn Terriers. Irene was preceded in death by her parents, her husband, who died in 1971, and her partner of 39 years, Lincoln Erwin, who died in 2012. She is survived by her children, Fred C. Felter of Springfield and Jane Alynn Bullis of Anacortes, Wash., and by four grandchildren and five great grandchildren.
Mitchell Griffith Drake Jan. 29, 1930 – July 30, 2014 Senior preferred member Mitchell Griffith Drake died peacefully July 30, 2014, in his sleep, at the distinguished age of 84. Mitchell was born in Portland to Janet Griffith and Donald M. Drake. He had two older brothers, Donald and Franklin. As the youngest of the three rambunctious boys who were close in age, Mitch had many opportunities to spend a good deal of time with his grandparents, Franklin T. Griffith and Etta “Betsy” Pope, whom he loved dearly. Growing up in Portland, Mitch attended Ainsworth Elementary School, then Lincoln High School. After a brief time at Menlo
College, he attended Stanford University for two years and then transferred to the University of Michigan, from which he graduated in 1954. Upon completion of college, he began working as a mortgage banker. He spent his 20s as a very handsome, eligible young bachelor (think James Bond). From the earliest of times, Mitchell loved socializing with old friends and new. The friends that he knew in grade and high school are still dear friends today. His love for traveling was instilled early in his life. One particularly fun trip took place in 1956, when he bought a Citroen to drive throughout Europe (Mitch returned to the States, however the car stayed in Europe). Mitchell, always impeccably dressed, was a wonderful dancer, appreciated and enjoyed intelligent, fun company and loved parties! In 1956, he began working at Donald M. Drake Construction, the company founded by his father. Initially, he worked as a warehouseman. He mentored under his eldest brother, Don, eventually working his way up to becoming the vice president and co-owner of the family business, where he worked until 1980. Also during his adult years, Mitchell enjoyed membership to many social and athletic clubs: the Arlington Club, the University Club, the Racquet Club and MAC. He enjoyed playing tennis, skiing and exercising regularly. He was very interested in politics, finance and world affairs. He was a long-standing member of Trinity Episcopal Cathedral and worked on the finance committee at Trinity. In addition, he served on the board of the Association of General Contractors. In 1960, he met and married Mary Barnum, who had recently moved to Portland with her two young children, Lynn (7) and Michael (4). Mitchell became a husband and “instadad” on Dec. 30, 1960. Mitchell and Mary added to their family with the birth of Betsy in 1961, Jennifer in 1963, and last, but not least, John in 1965. The children attended Oregon Episcopal School during grade school, during which time Mitchell served as the chairman of fundraising for OES. Mitchell and Mary divorced in the late ’70s, after which time Mary moved to California with the younger three children. While this move was difficult for Mitch, he still enjoyed many times a year with his children, either in Portland or California. After retiring in 1980 from the construction business, Mitch began to travel and focus his energies in other states. In the early-mid 1980s, he met and married Nancy Ball Williams. He then moved to Sun Valley, Idaho, where Continued on page 19 October 2014

In Memoriam Continued from page 17 Nancy and two of her three children still resided. Together, they enjoyed several years dividing their time between a home in Palm Beach, Fla. and Sun Valley. After their marriage ended, Mitchell continued to divide his time between the two locales, enjoying both the ocean and the snow and his friends in both places. In 1997, Mitchell returned to Portland to live permanently due to a series of health issues. It had been in the last 17 years that he carved out a quiet existence at the Legends Condominiums, and a very specific routine centering mostly around his daily exercise and meals at MAC, where he had been a member since 1936. It has been said that one could set their watch based on Mitchell’s routine. During these last several years, mostly due to the physical limitations brought on by Parkinson’s disease and related conditions, Mitch was unable to engage in the active social life that he once thrived upon. Regardless of not being able to be places and venture out to see people, he always remembered friends and family members’ birthdays with a phone call or card, and always sent a remembrance for a friend who had passed away. To the end of his days, his mind and memory were incredibly sharp and his attention to detail unparalleled! Many people came to admire the courage, discipline and determination that Mitchell exampled by keeping going, no matter what. He was quite the inspiration to many. He was a good man, thoughtful son, responsible and loving father and a dear friend to so many. He will be deeply missed. Mitchell is survived by his children, Lynn and Betsy of Portland and John (Christine Lemor) of San Francisco; grandchildren, Lily Burns of Portland, Alex Burns of Tucson, Ariz., and Henri and Remi Drake of San Francisco; brother, Franklin Drake (Harriet); sister-in-law, Marguerite Drake; and several nieces and nephews. His son, Michael; daughter, Jennifer; brother, Donald Drake; parents, Janet G. Sprague and Donald M. Drake; and stepfather, Raymond Sprague, preceded him in death. The family would like to extend a special thank you for the many who served and watched over Mitch for the past several years: the concierge staff at the Legends Condominium, the valet and dining room staff at Hotel deLuxe (Gracies), the management at MAC, the front desk crew at MAC, Irvyn Segal, Mitchell’s trainer, and especially all of the patient and gracious staff at the MAC’s Men’s Bar and Sports Pub! We would also like to extend our gratitude to Guy K., the Legacy Hospice RN, who, with
a sense of humor and medical knowledge, made a difficult time for the family a bit easier. Donations in memory of Mitchell may be made to the National Parkinson Foundation at www.parkinson.org, or the Multnomah Athletic Foundation at www.multnomahathleticfoundation.com.
Jeanette Giusti April 18, 1920 – Aug. 2, 2014 Jeanette was born in St. Helens to Hartwig and Helena Svendsen. John Gumm High School acknowledged her for her art skills and upon graduation she attended Marlyhurst College on a scholarship. At a college function Jeanette met and later married Al. C. Giusti. Jeanette and Al continued Al’s family business and from the The New Italian Wine Company, they built the Al C. Giusti Wine Company that became one of the largest distributors in the Northwest. In 1980 Al passed away from cancer. In 1981 Jeanette and son Larry started the Al C. Giusti Memorial Invitational, a PGAsanctioned event that ran for 26 years. The proceeds benefited cancer research. Jeanette lived life to the fullest with family, travels, art, walking groups, and many visits to Hawaii where her daughter eventually settled. She had great taste, style, a curious mind, and a wild love for her granddaughter Evalani. She is survived by her son, Laurence Giusti; daughter, Victoria Giusti; son-in-law, Ted Walton; and granddaughter, Evalani Walton. She is also survived by nieces and nephews here in Oregon, California and Saipan. Jeanette will be forever in our hearts. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to any organization that supports cancer research or the Arts.
Jonathan Hammack Nov. 12, 1943 – July 24, 2014 Senior family preferred member Jonathan R. Hammack, a lifelong resident of Portland, passed away peacefully at his home, surrounded by family. Jon bought and ran a successful food brokerage business, Hammack & Associates, from 1972 to 1996. He was well known in the food business and helped to establish and pioneer several new food products. Jon was an avid Oregon State University Beaver fan and contributed significantly throughout the years with time and donations, including being on the board of the Beaver Athletic Scholarship Fund. Like any true Beaver, he enjoyed many seasons of OSU basketball and football games. Jon also served on the board of directors at Portland Golf Club, was past president of Portland Executives Association and was a member of MAC, Arlington Club and University Club.

In Memoriam Continued from page 19 Jon and his surviving wife, Linda, spent the last six years enjoying their winters at their home in Green Valley, Ariz. “Off to a new adventure,” was their motto while exploring the area. There, he also enjoyed golfing, meeting new friends from around the U.S. and other activities. Jon’s passion was spending time with his wife in the garden and enjoying his children and grandchildren. Jon and Linda traveled to Europe and other destinations around the world, with Cabo San Lucas always remaining their favorite. During these past months, Jon battled with pancreatic cancer and his family will miss him and his passion for life dearly. In lieu of flowers, Jon would like donations made out to: Pancreatic Disease Research Fund – 24696, mail to: Brett Sheppard, M.D., OHSU General Surgery, L223A, 3181 S.W. Sam Jackson Park Road, Portland, OR 97239.
Thomas Joseph Niedermeyer Jan. 25, 1935 – Aug. 16, 2014 Senior family preferred member Thomas Joseph Niedermeyer, passed away at the age of 79 on Aug. 16.
The 13th of 15 children, Tom, affectionately known as Earl to those closest to him, leaves a lasting legacy of quiet generosity, a quick wit, unrelenting kindness, and unconditional love. He will be remembered and missed deeply by all. Tom was the youngest son of Bernard and Tessie Niedermeyer. He grew up in Northeast Portland, where he graduated from Madeleine Grade School, Columbia Prep High School, and the University of Portland. It was in the sixth grade at Madeleine that he met the love of his life, Barbara Whitehead. After a long courtship, the two married in 1958 and began to start a family. They are the proud parents of eight wonderful children: Thomas Joseph, Todd Michael, Eric Paxton, Sara Marie, Jon Frederick, Emily Louise, Mark Gerard, and Monica Anne. Tom considered his children’s spouses as his own children: Elisabeth, Deborah, Laura, Kathleen, Laura, Greg Ausman, Trevor Becker and John Denler. Being a husband, father and grandfather were the proudest roles of his life. The success in his professional life closely rivals the impact he had on his family. He learned the lumber business from an early age working in the sawmills, lumberyards, and treatment plants of Niedermeyer-Martin
Company, eventually becoming a partner and executive vice president. This role led him to travel the world, meet dignitaries of state, and inspire an incredible work ethic in his own children. His entrepreneurial spirit, his drive to succeed, and his belief that anything was possible impacted all who knew him. His greatest contributions were hardly known by most. His understated generosity was demonstrated almost daily – whether it was coaching little league teams, launching foreign language programs at his kids’ schools, supporting the educations of family and friends, or just offering a smile, hug, or a joke to whomever was extra at the dinner table. He was a fabulous athlete, a wicked card player, and a constant joker. He was always up for an adventure and loved nothing more than bonfires on the beach, trips to Las Vegas, and countless trips to Sun Valley. His favorite times were when he had his family together. Tom is survived by seven of his siblings, his wife Barbara, his children and their spouses, and his 21 grandchildren. The family wishes to thank Gary Clements for his friendship and care of Earl this past year. In lieu of flowers, please send donations to St. Thomas More Church. WM

Balladeers
MAC’s Male Singers Set for Season Calling all MAC male singers. The Balladeers first open rehearsal of the year is at 7:15 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 9 just outside the Sports Pub. Show up. Bring vocal chords. Make music. Have fun. And, that’s just the beginning, as the ensemble plans a year of new repertoire, new performance venues and new collaborations. “We hope to return to St. Mary’s, but also try to sing at the Grotto for the holidays. We’re also working on some collaboration
with other arts groups at MAC,” said Director Scott Tuomi. Over the summer, the group had several well-attended practices (a first as summer has historically been time off) and one of its first fall performances is a combination concert with the choir from Intel. “I am planning more collaboration with Tsunami (an all-star male youth choir Tuomi also directs) and I’m hoping to commission another new arrangement for the group next year,” Tuomi said. The Balladeers welcomed several new (or returning) members toward the end of last season and over the summer, and Balladeer Chair Jay Maxwell said, “we’re excited about the increase in quality and diversity of our music and looking forward to more opportunities with music groups within the club.” For male members who are interested in contributing to a moving musical experience, the Balladeers invite you to drop in to Open Rehearsal on Thursday, Oct. 9, or other Thursdays in the third floor Activities Classroom.

October’s chill may be in the air, but the MelloMacs are warming audiences with music. The onset of autumn is also the beginning of the MelloMacs’ 54th season of serenading seniors in the Metro area. With a mere six weeks of rehearsals under their belts, the MelloMacs hold their first concert of the season on the Monday, Oct. 27. That first show, like the proverbial olive, is always the toughest, and it is also the most revealing. The first show reveals what the group has polished, and what still needs polishing, musically speaking. No performance is perfect, but the MelloMacs strive toward that goal under the tutelage of director Gus Pappelis and “philharmonic orchestra” Kit Taylor. While rehearsals are hard work, none shirk their part, and the group grows together. By season’s end, rehearsals morph into family gatherings as the bonds grow stronger between members. If you are a senior Mac member and you would like to sing with purpose, come, sit in on a Monday evening rehearsal and meet 40 new friends. Rehearsals begin promptly-ish at 7 p.m. in the third floor Activities Classroom. The MelloMacs look forward to meeting you. –Leon Drennan

How I Found Pilates – and Found Pain Relief M
y first exposure to Pilates was in a large class in the early ’90s at MAC. Friends told me that there was this great class, taught by Antigone, that didn’t feel that hard when you were doing it but boy, you could feel it the next day! I decided to give it a try and my friends were right – it was a great class and I definitely felt it for the next several days. I had this experience at a time when I was struggling to find some kind of exercise I could do on a consistent basis. I had grown up participating in team sports and was always active with swimming, softball, volleyball, basketball, golf, cheerleading, dance and water skiing. I learned to snow ski and was certified to teach aerobic dance in my early adulthood and jogged throughout for general health purposes. Although I worked full time, I so loved aerobic dance that I created my own program and taught classes two to four times a week. Near the end of my eight years of teaching, I was diagnosed
52 | The Wınged M |
October 2014
with fibromyalgia. I’d never heard of the condition and was only diagnosed because I was sore all over (a badge of honor for any aerobics instructor worth her salt), and very tender to the touch. Of course, I was always tired, but who wouldn’t be with a schedule like mine (another badge of honor). Turns out these are classic symptoms. All this physical health reality came home to roost when we were transferred to Seattle. For the first time since I was 17, I was not working and I did not have a builtin workout regime. I was really feeling my body for the first time, too, without anything on which to blame the aches, pains and exhaustion. By the time we moved back to Portland nearly four years later, I was depressed and unable to do any physical activity consistently. I returned to my longtime doctor for help. After listening to all of my symptoms and concerns, she reminded me of my fibromyalgia diagnosis and cautioned that even a little exercise could send me into
a flare and subsequent setback. I set out to learn everything I could (or what they then knew) about fibromyalgia and found that normal exercise was not encouraged. However, the Catch 22 was that, it was found that easy exercise was very helpful to counteract some symptoms. Huh? Happily, we were back at the MAC and I knew I could find just the right class or classes for me. Or, not. Luckily, MAC had an Alive and Well Program that was coordinated by Marge Coleman. She’d written an article in The Winged M touting the various offerings available to members who wanted to expand their fitness routines beyond aerobics and weights and into enhanced wellness through yoga, Pilates and the like. She also mentioned that she’d been diagnosed with fibromyalgia and that these programs helped her. I’d already been doing Antigone’s class, but was struggling with consistency. I gave Marge a call and she connected me with Cristi Dillon, who was
Athletics excited to help me find a way to monitor my workouts so I could exercise regularly. This was easier said than done. Dillon was working on her Pilates certification when we began and it was very helpful in providing me with exercises that I could do, without too much after shock. However, the big breakthrough for me was when the MAC got the Pilates Reformer machines. Although I was trying to do the mat classes, I occasionally had trouble remembering to pull out of positions soon enough (I could do them and enjoyed them at the time) so as not to experience the pain later. But with the continued, fluid movement of the exercises on the Reformer, I did not suffer setbacks. Fast-forward 20-plus years and I’m still doing Pilates. I have continued to work with Dillon in the Pilates Studio Group Reformer Classes as well as an occasional Pilates mat class. But now I’m also able to partake in Zumba, walking, golf, moderate hiking, some biking and, of course, I’ll dance at the drop of a down beat! I still have to monitor my participation, but because I have learned to correct my body mechanics, been able to strengthen and lengthen my muscles, maintain my flexibility, increase my balance and enhance my stability – all through Pilates – I am able to participate in physical activity and life to a degree I never thought possible, so many years ago. I believe strongly that every member of MAC can benefit from Pilates. It enhances every sport and physical activity. It helps enhance rehab from surgeries, injuries or illnesses as well as prepare us for active, strong and healthy retirements. And, to show my support of the Pilates program, I decided to apply to join the Pilates Committee. This is my third year and I am honored to be presently serving as our Chair. We are working hard to help support an evolving, state-of-the-art, program for our members. We are very pleased and lucky to have Dillon as our hard-working, forward-thinking program coordinator, as well as all of the wonderful, professional instructors who work so well and so hard on our membership’s behalf. We are excited to be installing our new CoreAlign Pilates machines this fall.

The A team completed a successful campaign by winning their first NACAD championship since 2007. Throughout the spring, the team showed tremendous grit and resiliency, often against much taller opponents. In March, they won the Pacific Coast Athletic Clubs regional championship at the Washington Athletic Club (WAC) in Seattle before heading to nationals in San Francisco. There they won all six games en route to the championship using timely 3-point shooting, unselfish play and incredible team defense. The team dug deep in the final game to overcome an 11-point deficit with 14 minutes to play. Outstanding efforts by Mike Hart, Patrick Jansa and Brad Cohn helped the A’s go on a 24-0 scoring frenzy to walk away national champions. Congratulations to the team and coach Dave Immel for a great season.

AA Team After winning the PCAC’s in Seattle, the MAC AA Team, made up of players ages 35 and over, had targets on their back entering the NACAD tournament. On opening day, the team had convincing wins against the Missouri and Detroit athletic clubs. The second day of competition, the MAC AA team beat WAC in overtime in a hotly contested game. The win catapulted them into the championship, where they faced the Olympic Club host team. Ron Grady got off to a hot start and had the MAC team up early 25-12. John Jackson, Eric Heinle and Matt Foster controlled the paint and were awesome on the boards. The “O” Club made a late first-half run to even things up, and the second half went back and forth. Three straight late 3s from Trevor Kafoury and two clutch free throws from Grady proved too much, sealing the 58-56 win. They couldn’t have done it without their extremely dedicated coach, Rich Wold. October 2014
Masters Team After winning the PCAC tournament in Seattle in March, the masters team, competing in the 45 and older division, arrived in San Francisco as defending national champs. Short a few players due to injuries and scheduling, the first day got off to a rocky start with losses to St. Louis and the eventual champions LA Athletic Club. With nothing to lose, the team dug deep and went on a tear the second day and dominated their opponents with stifling defense, winning by 15 points or more each game. Earl Martin led the team in scoring with hot shooting from Mark Hesse, Doc Phillips and Tom Ferris. Coach Michael Holton did a great job steering the team throughout the season and even made it home to broadcast the Blazers’ Game 4 home playoff game against the Rockets.
Golden Masters Team The Golden Masters dominated 2014, winning their third consecutive NACAD title. Jim Deweese and Bill Patton proved to be great additions to a strong 2013 team and blended in well with returning members. Chuck Katter was a handful for opponents and was a great leader on the floor. At NACAD, the toughest competition in this 55-and-older division came from WAC and the Olympic Club. After a close, early loss to the Olympic Club, they came back with a hardfought 57-49 win against WAC, which qualified them for a rematch with the Olympic Club in the championship game. Their ability to push the pace was huge as they ran away in the second half for a 67-45 win.
Platinum The Platinum team was very competitive at the NACAD tournament, reaching the finals. To prepare for the tournament, from January through March, the team competed in the Portland city league for the first time, playing against teams that were much younger and more athletic. The game was tied at halftime with outstanding play from Bill Luettgerodt, Mark Carver and Gene Callan. The shots didn’t fall in the second half, and the championship was not to be. WM

MAC cyclists return to the Springwater Trail for an out-and-back jaunt to mark the last Second Saturday ride of the season.
Cycling
Early Birds
Last Group Ride Around the Corner
A Spooky Stroll Through an Ancient Cemetery
October marks the last of the Cycling Committee’s organized rides this year. This season, MAC members and friends participated in several cycling activities: the Second Saturday rides, Wednesday Night rides (that included the Club Championships), the Fun Field Trips by Bike for Adults, and the annual Wine Ride. Many thanks to our member coaches for making this a great MAC cycling season: Jennifer Cree, Russell Cree, Ian Penner and Craig Schommer. The Cycling Committee wants to hear from MAC members. Let us know how we did this year and what can be done to make the cycling program even better.
The Early Birds hold their traditional Halloween Spook Run/Walk under the shroud of early-morning darkness Friday, Oct. 31. Walkers and runners leave the Turnaround between 5:15-5:30 a.m. for the historic Lone Fir Cemetery at S.E. Morrison Street and S.E. 20th Avenue. The oldest cemetery in the area, Lone Fir is on the National Register of Historic Places and includes graves of many important citizens. Early Bird savants are available to tell the stories of some of the cemetery’s residents, and serve delicious Halloween treats from 5:45-6:45 a.m. Fear the dark? Carry a light. Opt to wear a frightening costume to impress the other ghosts and goblins and share stories about family immigrants to Oregon. The distance to the cemetery is about three miles each way. Not up for the roundtrip walk? Hitch a ride back with the hosts or take TriMet Bus 15, which stops at the cemetery. –Jan M. Collins
Sunday, Oct. 12, Springwater Corridor The last organized ride of the season is a ramble on the Springwater Corridor. While this ride is about 27 miles, the out-and-back nature of the ride makes it more familyfriendly. Bring your kids and choose your own distance. Meet at the Boring Middle School at 9 a.m.; ride starts at 9:15 a.m.

Implications of alcohol consumption One of the most common questions I get is about alcohol. Alcohol is consumed by people all over the world, and for many people, it is part of daily life. Fermented grain, fruits and honey have been used to make alcohol, chemically known as ethyl alcohol or ethanol, for thousands of years. Even today, alcohol is a common dietary component, consumed in the form of alcoholic beverages such as beer, wine and distilled spirits. Although alcohol is not a “natural” macronutrient, like fats, carbohydrates and proteins, it does provide caloric value, so it should be taken into consideration when adjusting a person’s overall daily caloric intake. The caloric density of alcohol is 7.1 kcal/g, which is significant. Alcohol may account for up to 10 percent of the total energy intake of moderate consumers and
There’s no way around it – alcohol consumption has health consequences. up to 50 percent for alcoholics. Because of its broad consumption, and high caloric density, it possesses a potential concern when contributing to weight gain. Another weight gain concern is that alcohol is immediately metabolized once it is consumed. This is because the body recognizes it as unnatural and toxic. The body begins the metabolism of alcohol by the secretion of the enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) in the liver cells to break down the alcohol. When this is occurring within the body, it also impacts other metabolic pathways, leading to alterations in energy

Athletics production and storage. Alcohol also has been shown to significantly suppress lipid oxidation. Thus, as long as the body is busy with the metabolism of alcohol, fat breakdown is decreased. In addition to the alteration of metabolic pathways, when an individual consumes alcohol they often make poor food choices and consume additional calories. With the additional calories from the alcohol and the higher caloric food choices while drinking, alcohol can be a significant inhibitor to achieving a person’s weight-loss goal.

MAC Karate is More Than Just a Belt When both of our boys, Gray and Henry, joined MAC Karate in January, we anticipated this would be another activity they could participate in until they found something to replace it. We are still exposing them to as many new activities as they would like to try and see what sticks. MAC Karate has stuck. It has been very important for us to find extracurricular activities to give them balance outside of school and the home. The boys have not gravitated toward team sports with unbridled enthusiasm like their friends, nor did we want to push them into an activity or sport they had no interest in. MAC Karate teaches much more than just the physical movements and techniques needed for belt advancement. There are many collateral benefits, such as self discipline, focus, patience, increased respect for Continued on page 62

Synchro Shines at Nationals and Worlds M
AC Synchro recently returned from a successful run at Age Group National Championships in Federal Way, Wash. Age Group National Championships draws competitors from across the country who qualify in local and regional competitions. MAC Synchro qualified three teams and several small routines for the meet. This is by far the biggest meet of the season for the team, and they have been practicing since September of last year to perfect their routines. The 11-12 age group team placed 14th and had a great swim, especially after having some last-minute changes due to an injury. The 13-15 age group team placed 17th in the most competitive age category, moving up eight places from last year’s finish. One of the highlights in this age group was two soloists, Renee Zhang and Andrea Percic, who qualified for finals and placed seventh and 10th, respectively. The 18-19 age group team placed 18th with one of their best swims of the year. Graduating senior Lyndsey Sipe (a member of the 18-19 team) placed 13th in the 18-19 solo category.
World Masters – MAC Synchro Masters Fourteen MAC synchronized swimmers ranging in age from 29 to 84 years joined more than 7,000 athletes from 101 nations to compete in the 15th FINA World Masters Championships in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, in late July. Sarah Beth Pfohman and Lucie Svrcinova won the gold medal with their spectacular performance in the 30-39 duet competition. Svrcinova also dazzled the audience with her gold-medal performance in the 40-49 solo competition. The 40-65 age group MAC Cabaret Combo routine, featuring Nikki Berlin, Jeanine Cavagnaro, Ali Fraser, Jennifer Guyler, Michele Kraus, Jini Miller, Phyllis Newmark, Lynn Pettitt, Jennifer Sterrett and Julie Vigeland, brought home the silver medal. The mother-daughter duet of Jeanne and Phyllis Newmark won bronze in the 70-79 duet category. Other notable performances included duets by Pettitt and Julie Vigeland (age 60-69 category, fourth place), Michel Kraus and Jennifer Sterrett (age 30-39 category, eighth place), and Cavagnaro

and Jennifer Guyler (50-59 category, eighth place). Charlene Mann placed 19th with her solo in the 50-59 category.
U.S. National Team In July and August, the Wiita sisters, junior member Elli Wiita and intermediate member Katy Wiita, represented the U.S. and MAC at two international synchronized swimming competitions. Katy and Elli are both members of the USA Senior National Team, which has been designated as the official 2016 Olympic Training Team, and Elli also is a member of the 2014 USA Junior National Team. At the 2014 U.S. Open Synchronized Swimming Championships held in Las Vegas in July, Katy represented the U.S.A. and swam the technical duet with fellow national team member Sarah Rodriguez from San Antonio. With only five weeks to prepare their routine, their duet finished third, just behind the Colombia National Team duet and the Japan 2012 Olympic duet, and ahead of teams from Quebec, Aruba, Peru and several U.S. clubs at this international meet. Elli represented the U.S. in the Junior Team competition (age 18 and under) as a member of the USA Junior National Team in their final tune-up meet before heading to Finland for the Junior World Championships at the end of July. The Junior National Team had both the highest average figure score and the highest routine score in the junior team event, winning gold at the U.S. Open. At the Junior World Championships held in Helsinki, Finland, in August, the Junior National Team, including Elli Wiita, competed in the junior team event against 21 teams from countries around the world. The U.S.A. Team average figure score ranked fifth overall, and the U.S.A. National Team ended the competition in eighth place. Both of these results made history, representing better results than USA Synchro has achieved on the world stage in the past six years. Katy is a 2012 graduate of Catlin Gabel School and a junior at the University of The Incarnate Word in San Antonio, where she is an accounting major, two-time Academic All American, and twotime Athletic All American. Elli is a senior at Catlin Gabel School and will graduate in 2015. WM

MAC Karate is not just a class, rather it’s a community, where important values are learned and nurtured. It is giving Gray and Henry a solid foundation and skill set that will help them in other aspects of their lives. After eight months in the program, we found that the boys have more focus in school and increased self-confidence. It is highly encouraged that any members young, old or somewhere in between, who are looking for an activity not just for exercising the body but the mind as well, should give karate a try. They may be surprised by what they will experience.
Racquetball
Top Ten Reasons to Play MAC Racquetball There is a strong and growing number of racquetball players of all ages at MAC. Here are some of the reasons why the program is growing.
Need another reason to play MAC racquetball? How about a chance to rub shoulders with the pros during the annual Tournament of Champions. 1. It’s simple to learn. Your opponent hits the ball against the front wall, and then you hit it back before it bounces twice. You can use the side wall, the back wall or the ceiling. A note to tennis players – if you are practicing by yourself, all those walls bring the ball right back to you.
2. The facility. There are four dedicated courts, deep in the Subbasement, built around the racquetball lounge, plus another six courts on the same level shared with handball. Find the courts, and you have found a potential new home inside MAC. There is plenty of comfortable seating, a TV showing live sporting

Athletics events, warm-up cycles, plenty of room to stretch – we have it all. 3. The people. You can show up with your gear almost anytime and find a game, with the best players more than willing to play and teach newbies. Men and women compete at all levels, and there are special drop-in times for doubles, women, juniors and more. It’s a great atmosphere, open and welcoming. 4. Wide range of competition. More than 130 players are in the weekly racquetball league, which runs three sessions in the fall, winter and spring. There are usually four club tournaments throughout the year, plus a club championship in doubles and singles, exchanges with other clubs, and an Open Pro Am Tournament in the spring. 5. Great exercise. Playing an hour of racquetball will burn 600-plus calories, and the game will demand your attention in a way that a bicycle or elliptical machine cannot. Playing will build muscle, improve your flexibility, balance, hand-eye coordination, is great aerobic exercise, and an excellent sport for cross-training for baseball, softball, tennis and basketball. 6. Great coaching. Hank Marcus, the club pro, is joined by player coaches Dave Szafranski, Anne Griffin, Alex York and Charlie Pratt. They are always willing to help improve your game through regular lessons, free junior clinics, or just joining you on the court. There are regular instruction skills clinics and wellness clinics to teach techniques to improve and avoid injury. 7. A level for all. The league runs up to 13 levels of competition, with 10 teams, so each session means a competitive game each week, no matter if it’s your first season or your 25th. 8. Golf. The racquetball gang holds a yearly golf tournament as well as on-court activities. It’s a great way to play a different game, this time in the sunshine, with players from the league. 9. Fun from 9 to 90. The coaches offer training to juniors on Wednesday afternoons from October through May. The Lincoln Racquetball Team calls the MAC courts their home, and many of the players have integrated into the league. (Better beat them early in their career, every season they get tougher.) It’s a great sport for life; there is a weekly morning Golden Master crowd with one player currently in his ’90s. 10. Beer. Join the league, and post-match beer and Gatorade is provided on Thursday nights and for tournaments. Come down when the season starts, meet the racquetball gang, and enjoy a frosty on us. Learn all about MAC racquetball on our web page. Continued on page 64 October 2014

Walking & Hiking
A Walking Holiday in the English Country I
n the United States, walkers and hikers take “hiking trips.” In the United Kingdom, these trips are called “walking holidays.” MAC member Dee Poujade has been exploring different areas of Great Britain in a series of walking holidays over the past five years and looks forward to sharing her experiences with members at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 11. From the Isle of Wight to the Yorkshire Dales and from the Cornwall coast to the Cotswolds, Poujade has enjoyed the ambience of country houses, while experiencing the varied terrain with congenial walking companions. Returning to the same place every evening means not being burdened with heavy packs, leaving the walker free to enjoy the scenery. This style of traveling also provides opportunities for in-depth looks at relatively small areas. Experience walking holidays in the English countryside through photographs and stories. There is no charge to attend, and guests are welcome. Registration is appreciated to ensure adequate seating for everyone. Register online at theMAC.com or call 503-517-7539.

The newest edition of Gerald’s popular hiking guidebook, 60 Hikes Within 60 Miles of Portland, includes updates of wellknown trails, as well as new trails to explore, all within about a two-hour drive from city center. Gerald admits there are far more than 60 hikes within 60 miles, but he features hikes that are the

best of the best and challenges hikers to consider setting foot on all of them. From the Oregon Coast to Mount Hood National Forest to the Columbia River Gorge and north to Mount St. Helens and Mount Adams, Gerald entices hikers to explore the great Pacific Northwest. Some day-hike options include sections of the Pacific Crest Trail. Gerald has written a guidebook for this: Day and Section Hikes on the Oregon PCT. Not interested in driving back to the city after a day on the trail? Gerald has a guidebook for that too: Best Tent Camping in Oregon. Most hikers not only appreciate a good trail, they also appreciate a good meal. Gerald’s Breakfast in Bridgetown is a great companion book to the hiking guidebooks, and touches on the culinary delights that abound locally during this talk. When hiking a trail outside city limits does not fit into the schedule, consider selecting a close-in walk from Gerald’s Peaceful Places in Portland, a small guidebook to about 100 places to enjoy peace and quiet in the city. And, if these area options are not enough, Gerald has agreed to share a few photos and stories from his other hiking and eating love, Italy. The evening presentation starts at 7 p.m. Book signing is at 6:30 p.m. Come early and spend time with Gerald, as well as members of the Walking and Hiking Committee, who are using Gerald’s ideas to put forth a great schedule of outings in 2015.

And now, results are in for swimmers who achieved rankings in the national list of Top 10 times. Four MAC Masters swimmers rose to this calibur in 2014, and join U.S. Masters Swimming’s most elite swimmers in short-course yards competition. Megan Foley and Jessica Stacy represented the 18-24 age group, with Megan earning 3rd in the 400 Individual Medley and 8th in the 200 breaststroke while Jessica had 4 Top 10 swims: 200 breaststroke (4th), 100 breaststroke (6th), 100 Individual Medley (7th), and 50 breaststroke (8th). Her teammate, Jill Marie Asch, coincidentally took the exact same places in her events for the 45-49 age group: 50 free (4th), 50 fly (6th), 100 free (7th), and 50 back (8th).

MAC masters swimmers already clinched an Oregon team championship. underway this summer, the team has kept busy with their training by commuting to different pools (and different bodies of water, for some). As the saying goes, “When one door closes, another one opens.” Swimmers are training at the short-course meters pool at Portland State University and using it to their advantage, building endurance for the
long-course meters and open water competition season (for reference, the former is the Olympic, 50-meter competition length). Kicking off the season were Eric Wan and Brent Washburne, who competed at the Tualitan Hills Long Course Meter meet on May 31st. Each of them swept their events with first place finishes. Sprinter Eric Wan
Athletics won the 45-49 year old division of the 50, 100 and 200 meter freestyles while Brent Washburne took to the shorter events as well by winning the 50-54 division in the 50 and 100 meter breaststrokes. To those that traded swimming over a black line for the chop of open water, it was a summer of firsts for both Scot Sullivan and Ted Bonus. Scot took off on the morning of July 13th on the Portland Bridge Swim, an 11-mile quest under 12 bridges from Sellwood to St. Johns. Unfortunately, 4000 meters in the race was called due to the first lightning storm of the season. Scot plans to rally the team and re-attempt the swim next year. Ted Bonus, on the other hand, took off on his first open water 3000 meter race at Elk Lake, one of the Cascade Lake Swim Series events. Coming in at 43:22, he was the first man out of the water in the suits division (which means no wetsuits in chilly 68 degree water). Way to win in speedo fashion, Ted!

The 2014-15 Club season is right around the corner and MAC Junior Volleyball is gearing up for another exciting year. Volleyball continues to grow in popularity in the Northwest. According to CEVA (Columbia Empire Volleyball Association) most participation is in the U14 division (13 and 14 year olds) – with over 150 teams competing in that age group alone. MAC members’ enthusiasm continues as well. The club plans to field nine junior teams again this year. Prior to tryouts, advanced players are encouraged to attend the Junior Volleyball Fall Train and Play Clinics. This series of Sunday evening sessions from September through October re geared for players with two to three years of club experience who want to fine-tune their skills prior to try-outs. MAC also holds two Sunday night sessions for beginning players. The Junior Volleyball Beginners/Intermediate Clinic is open to players just learning the game and wanting to improve their individual and team skills. See the Junior Volleyball page at www.themac. com for more information.

The presentation explores basic sequencing components, goalsetting and universal principles of alignment… yourself, a journal or means to take notes. We’ll balance asana exploration with individual support to meet your goals.
The Psychology of Yoga How is it that Yoga creates change? How is this similar or different than talk therapy and Western Psychological change models? In this three-hour largely didactic presentation we’ll use the yogic map of the koshas, an Indian integration of body-mind and spirit, to explore the tools and techniques in each system. These two systems are quite different and yet can be used in complementary ways, each to deepen, strengthen and support deeper tastes of joy and freedom. Contemporary neuroscience and a special focus on working with trauma will be included. Appropriate for students, teachers and therapists wishing to integrate these viewpoints in their work. All-levels, some minimal asana included. Quick Register YO104 FA14 WM

History at MAC Archivist George Vogt came to MAC in 2011 to help bring order to the vast array of artifacts and documents associated with the club. He occasionally shares them with members in The Winged M. This month, he unearthed soime information on this photo from a ’50s fashion show at MAC.
’50s Fashion Show Took Members on a Wild Ride MAC’s Holiday Fashion Show has come a long way over the years. In 1951, an MG circled the lounge to take some of the models to the stage. This particular look featured a hunting outfit, rifle included, modeled by Howard Bobbitt. This year’s show also featured men’s clothing, but with Orvis on the program, we suspect a fly rod is a more likely prop. For more on this year’s Holiday Fashion Show, including photos of members modeling featured shops and boutiques, turn to the feature on page 24.

Our New Home Is NOW OPEN
In 1966, Ron Tonkin began selling a little-known Italian car called Ferrari. Long before they were world-renown both on and off the track, Ron Tonkin Gran Turismo was founded on the love for these beautiful machines.

And nearly one half-century later, love continues to fuel us in providing the Pacific Northwest with the greatest cars in the world. This summer, we celebrate the memory of Ron Tonkin during the grand opening of our brand new state-of-the-art facility centrally located in North Wilsonville, Oregon. It is a place to build your dreams, realize the rewards of a lifetime of hard work, and to experience the unique culture that only Ferrari and Maserati ownership can offer. We have built our dream. Come build yours.
