e had an excellent response to the recent general manager survey — an early step in our search for our new leader. The survey’s goal was to engage members in the general manager Holly Lekas selection process. PRESIDENT With strong member participation, we exceeded our goal. The success of this effort will lead to the use of tools like this in the future to help guide club decision-making. Thank you! Members voices are valued. The complete survey results will be posted on the News page of themac.com, but here are the highlights. The qualities/ skills that ranked highest for a new general manager include: a commitment to excellence, innovative vision but appreciates the tradition and heritage of the club, promotes and supports the member-led model and committee system in place at MAC, strong people skills with a focus on strong communication and collaboration skills, a continuance of support for a strong food and beverage department, and with a new and strong focus on athletics. Also, a trending item in the survey results revolved around comments regarding general manager compensation. The compensation will be identified by the Board of Trustees and the range will be based on the recent salary study and input received from members via this survey and other avenues. The Communications Committee continues to play an integral role in the creation and analysis of the survey and other informative efforts around our search. Their talents, skills and dedication made this survey possible. Thank you to the committee members and the Marketing Communications team. The Board of Trustees is pleased to announce the General Manager Search Team, chaired by former MAC President Janice Marquis with members Kyle Goulard, Laura Martin, Kim Sisul, Scott Stevens and Dwight Terry. We are grateful that they are willing to take on this important search process. After a comprehensive recruiter search, led by General Manager Transition Chairs Marlis Miller and D’Anne O’Neil, the Board of Trustees has secured the recruiter who will guide our nationwide search. In September, Murphy, Symonds & Stowell began the

process by reviewing the survey data and revising the position description to reflect the complicated role of general manager. They will work with the transition chairs, search team, Board of Trustees, staff and members as the process moves forward. The Cycling Committee’s Summer Cycling Rewards Program results are impressive (see page 60). These biking members are helping our parking challenges, carbon emission and our planet. A special note of appreciation to Chairman Jim Laird and the Cycling Committee for initiating this program. The House Committee set a goal to improve and increase communication about their roles as champions and guardians of MAC members. They have partnered with the Marketing Communications staff to develop their plan of improving transparency and understanding of the full breadth of the House Committee’s work. They are increasing the depth of their information and using stories to show members our rules and guidelines. Thank you House Committee, especially Jack Phillips and chair Marilyn Whittaker. The camaraderie and friendships forged in the fields of competition strengthen our MAC community. In September, two MAC teams competed in the 65+ Sectional Championship in Sunriver — the final competition of the USTA Tennis season. The Walker/Cofield Women’s 6.0 team fought tough battles, winning victories but missing finals by one set. The Bennett/Miller Men’s 8.0 team battled throughout the tournament, qualifying for finals. Both teams exhibited exceptional tennis skills and sportsmanship. Participating at this level of competition builds toughness and fosters lifelong friendships. You share victories and defeats, and bond as a team. These bonds return back to MAC and strengthen the fiber of our community. Representing the Multnomah Athletic Club is an honor. Thank you to our captains and my teammates who cheered and supported our teams! Go MAC! I’m ever impressed that our club is comprised of countless micro communities, both athletic and social. MAC’s strength is built on these member communities. They keep us relevant and help us thrive. In October, these groups help make possible activities such as the Masters Synchro Exhibition, the annual Pickleball Club Championships and Halloween Family Friday. Thank you to the members who plan and participate. This promises to be another great MAC month!

y father beamed with pride as each of his 14 grandchildren took turns sharing stories of their “Jidoo” at his 80th birthday celebration in 26 Founders. My daughter and her friend packed Matt Abraham the dance floor in TECHNOLOGY Lownsdale for their DIRECTOR shared Sweet 16 party. My high school friends and I attempted Dr. J moves during pick-up games on the basketball courts in the West Gym. Now, with my membership on hold to serve as your technology director, I have the opportunity to give back to the place that has meant so much to me and my family. Many think that technology is simply about fixing a computer or software issue. While of course that is true, technology needs to do much more. The groundwork for technology’s expanded role was laid when I joined the club just over a year ago. Our Board of Trustees built one of the best articulated strategic plans that I’ve seen in 35 years in the business world. In that plan, technology is identified as a critical initiative of the operational efficiency imperative. The board established an advisory committee to provide guidance to bring the technology strategy to life. The committee, led by Dave Brezinski, a former board member, is full of proven business leaders with unprecedented wisdom and talent. Strategic improvement in the MAC’s use of technology will impact you in a variety of ways, both easy to see and less visible. Our technology strategy starts with you knowing your information is private and secure. We are actively applying tighter controls over your data internally and with our vendors. This means modernizing our technical infrastructure and organizational policies and procedures to better combat the increasing risk of cyberattacks and to assure all your personal information is secure. Your technology team recognizes that member data protection is of utmost importance.

Second, equipment must be upgraded and modernized to ensure your physical safety and to minimize impact to operations if there is a building or external failure such as a power outage. Technology is actively addressing potential risk areas to maximize the operation of equipment such as hand-held radios, security cameras, Wi-Fi, the PA system, entrance check in/out stations, and the data center. This includes leveraging technology advances for your enhanced safety and to minimize disruptions in all areas of your club experience. Further, technology should work for you seamlessly and not cause headaches. Ease of club interaction is a key focus of our technology strategy. As a member, I remember MAC’s systems could be enormously frustrating. It seemed everything required a phone call to At Your Service or a tedious paper form. Reserving a class online during the first day of summer registration? Let’s just say I popped a few antacids the night before! Thankfully, progress has been made. The website and mobile app have been updated and their performance improved. Restaurant and event orders now can be taken via a tablet, and you can now get into the club by scanning your card digitally from the mobile app. This is a start, and we have plans to do much more to maintain a premium club experience for all members. Finally, we must automate processes and build a data-driven organization. In my first few months of employment, I was amazed at how paper-based our processes were. Inefficient operations take valuable time away from staff, which means valuable time away from you as members. Currently, Athletics and Human Resources are going through foundational changes in their processes and strategic use of data. Member-facing processes, such as managing parking capacity and the Lottery, are moving to automation as well. A critical benefit to this increased automation is the ability to combine data from various sources into information-rich reports that can be analyzed to improve operations and enhance your member experience. At some point, I will retire, return to the club again as a member, and make it my home away from home again. I may slow down a bit and not be able to attempt those Dr. J basketball moves, but I won’t let technology slow down too! I am committed to ensuring that the technology running our club will outlast me and stay in great health for many years to come.

FACES IN THE CLUB MAC Pickleball players flipped lids recently at the USAPA Pacific Northwest Regional Pickleball Championships in Beaverton. Club members Tim Leatherman, Gay Hart and Dana Hunt all left sour looks on competitors’ faces with their impressive showings. Leatherman took gold in singles play (3.5 skill rating) and silver in doubles (4.0) for ages 70 and older, while Hart and Hunt claimed silver in the 60 and older division (3.5). “The success of Tim, Dana and Gay not only is a testament to their ever-improving skills, but also a great showing for the new and growing MAC Pickleball program,” says Pickleball Manager Hank Marcus. Interested in getting involved in this rapidly growing sport? Check out the MAC Pickleball Championships Oct. 5-6 or Open Play, noon-3 p.m. Monday-Friday and 6-9 p.m. Sunday, all in the Main Gym. Early birds can get in on the action 5:30-7:30 a.m. Monday and Friday.

In the early hours of May 26, 2017, perched on Mt. Hood’s summit for the first time, Ryan Coussens removed his crampons and clipped into his skis. Precariously standing atop the Old Chute, he mentally readied himself, knowing full well that most mountaineering accidents happen on decent. Although he didn’t know it at the time, he had been training for this moment for most of his life. Coussens is excited to join the MAC Alpine Ski & Freeride Team as the Youth Ski League (YSL) prep coach. He hopes to inspire students to reach their goals. Having started at age five, he has now been skiing for nearly 30 years, as well as coaching at Mt. Hood Meadows for the past two. “While coaching skiing, I find video review incredibly valuable. Everyone has a picture in their mind of what they look like, but it’s important to see yourself to understand how you perform in that sport,” Coussens says. He has a passion for driving students’ success and creating a fun, inspiring, educational and safe learning environment for kids as they grow to achieve their goals. “Who knows, maybe one of them will want to ski off the summit of Mt. Hood one day.”

“I just can’t wait to get started!” Breyanna Thompson says of the upcoming ski season. The new YSL prep coach first got on skis at the age of two. No matter how you carve it, that’s an early beginning. Thompson’s love for botany and herbalism are mirrored by her passion for sustainability and the fight to preserve and manage public lands for future generations. For three years, she has coached at Mt. Hood Meadows, where she has picked up another passion — empowering young women to enjoy extreme sports! Thompson has fostered an environment of learning at Mt. Hood Meadows for three years. “What I am looking forward to the most as a YSL prep coach is sharing my passion for enjoying the outdoors with my students. My plan is to make ski progression fun while building confidence in the new skills I will be teaching,” Thompson says. She adds that her own feelings of enjoyment and adventure while skiing motivated her to advance her skills. “My best memory teaching skiing was when my students were so excited about the progress they made, skiing into Heather Canyon for the first time, that they wanted to make T-shirts to remember it by.”

CLUB NEWS In the House

W

e all love stories that are rich with details we can connect with. Each month, this column will explore a particular category of club rules through a story format that we hope resonates with members. These stories will try to convey the origin and logic of the most important, albeit at times confusing, club rules. We hope you enjoy this new format. —Jack Philips, House Committee member Andy sat down at the table before dinner. He wanted to tell his mom about an incident earlier that afternoon at MAC related to his cell phone use in the Reading Lounge. Andy’s mom, Mary, was unpacking takeout containers she’d picked up at the club on her way home from work, when Andy walked in. “Mom, when you called me this afternoon, I was in the MAC Reading Lounge doing homework,” he said. “I just assumed I could use my phone there, so that’s why I answered your call. I guess I missed seeing the signs saying no cell phone conversations allowed.” Andy turned 14 over the summer and passed the multiple-choice test to achieve his junior member status. An adult member who was reading the newspaper had reminded Andy of the club rules about cell phone use.

“That’s right,” said Mary. “There are areas in the club where, as a junior member, you are only allowed to go with a parent’s supervision, and the Reading Lounge is one of them. The area outside the Junior Lounge is a great place to do homework after school.”

Mary asked Andy if he remembered reviewing the Club’s Electronic Device Use Rules about where and how members are allowed to use their cell phones during his junior test. She reminded him of the three designations that govern cell phone use: silent mode use, quiet conversations and no use.

Andy’s dad, Archie, came through the kitchen door to catch the tail end of their conversation. “Today was a long day for sure. What’s for dinner?” Mary pointed to the containers she had picked up at the Sports Pub. “Ahh, MAC burger and fries! My favorite,” he exclaimed.

“Inside the Reading Lounge, you can only use your phone in silent mode, as in reading texts or email. That means if you make or receive a call, you need to move outside the room,” said Mary.

“Two reasons: courtesy and privacy. To many members, MAC is a place to escape electronic devices and cell phones. And, with all the cameras and recording capabilities on phones today, everyone’s privacy must be respected, especially at MAC. So, the rules allow for limited, courteous use in certain areas.”

“That makes sense,” said Andy. “I also found out the hard way that as a 14-year old, I’m not allowed to use the Reading Lounge without adult supervision.”

House Committee Sanctions

T

he House Committee enforces rules of conduct for members and guests by investigating infractions and recommending sanctions to the Board of Trustees. Recent board actions are listed below, along with reminders about the applicable club rules.

“Dad, why all the fuss about cell phones at MAC?” asked Andy.

In Memoriam Norm Rickles Dec. 15, 1950-Aug. 14, 2019 Norm Rickles, unanimously acclaimed “great guy,” stopped smiling Aug. 14 after a two-year battle with glioblastoma. He made us promise that we wouldn’t say he “battled cancer courageously”… but he did. Over the past year Norm wrote his own obituary. A lifelong resident of Portland, Norm knew in his heart that there was not a better place to live. As a longtime, active MAC member, he attributed his ability to extend his cancer prognosis to his consistent MAC workouts. Norm was convinced that he was the only person lucky enough to have been a spectator at each of these three regional events: The Beatles live concert at the Memorial Coliseum in 1965; the Portland Trail Blazers’ win of Game 6 in 1977 for the NBA Championship; and “The Pick,” Kenny Wheaton’s infamous 94-yard interception for a touchdown to save Oregon’s win over the Washington Huskies, ushering in a new era of Duck football. Norm had an idyllic childhood growing up in northeast Portland. He had loving parents, George and Shirley, and two incredible brothers, Steve and Jerry. Laughter and lots of love filled the household. In 1960, George was recruited by his dear friend Harry Glickman to be in charge of ticket sales for the Portland Buckaroos and then in 1970, the Portland Trail Blazers. This ensured that the Rickles boys grew up surrounded by the excitement of two of Portland’s revered sports franchises. Norm was an Oregon Duck to the end, graduating from U of O in 1975. His love of Duck football and Oregon track never waned. Game day found him on the road to Eugene, cheering on the Ducks with his enthusiastic tailgate friends. After law school, Norm began his legal career as an associate at the law firm of Black, Heterline, Beck & Rappleyea where he met the firm’s first female associate, a delightful, intelligent, unpretentious securities lawyer, Laila Aarnas. Norm and Laila married in 1984 and their life together was filled with laughter, tennis and adventures with friends and family; but most important, with the joy of having two daughters, Liz and Emma. Sadly, Laila died in 2000. After Laila’s death, Norm took great pride in the fact that while those days certainly were full of struggles, when all the dust settled, both daughters not only shared his wit, enthusiasm and infectious smile, but they grew to be well-adjusted, self-assured and confident professionals.

A few years after Laila’s death, one of her dearest friends, Betsy Menefee, was widowed and, as fate would have it, Norm and Betsy fell in love. Norm liked to say that their two families weren’t just blended, they were emulsified. Together they were the loving and devoted parents to Liz and Emma, and Margaux and Will Mennesson. Norm and Betsy used to joke that they better avoid getting sick because they each felt they would be the most dismissive, nonempathetic caregiver to be found. We’ll never know how Norm would have done, but we do know that Betsy’s prediction proved to be totally and patently false. Her constant upbeat mindset and positive attitude throughout Norm’s illness was a tribute to their incredible partnership.

Jedediah Lee Larson Sept. 20, 1972- July. 30, 2019 Jedediah Lee Larson of Lake Oswego died of a stroke on July 30, 2019. He was 46 years old. Born Sept. 20, 1972, in Eugene, Oregon, he was the second son of George and Christine Larson. Jed graduated with honors from the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania with Bachelor of Science degrees in Economics and Finance. He began his career in investment banking with Lazard Ltd. in New York City, where he stayed for 10 years. Always intending to return to Oregon, he first took a year and traveled the world with only a backpack. He visited more than 65 countries, every continent except Antarctica, and 48 of the 50 U.S. states. His favorite country was Australia although he still said Oregon was the most beautiful place to live. He returned to Portland and, changing careers, he joined Robert Half, where he was one of their top producers. In 2006, he formed Larson Oregon LLC, an executive search firm based in Lake Oswego. He remained a part of the University of Pennsylvania as a member of the Penn Club and Wharton Club of Portland. He was also a member of the University Club, an active MAC member and volunteered with Boy Scouts of America. Sports were a large part of Jed’s life. He was an avid Ducks, Blazers and Timbers fan. He also enjoyed soccer and swimming. However, his favorite sport was golf. In high school, he went to two state championships and lettered three years. As an adult, he played many well-known courses and traveled several times to see the Masters.

Carrying on the tradition of playing golf with his father, Jed bought his oldest son a set of junior golf clubs as soon as he was walking, and started teaching him how to play. Jed is survived by his wife of 10 years, Olivia and their three children: Samuel Elliott “Sam” (age 8), Audrey Marie (age 6) and Robert Butler “Bobby” (age 4). His brother, Lance, and his father, George, also survive him. Jed was predeceased by his mother, Christine. A private funeral service was held at St. James Lutheran Church in Portland. A memorial for friends and family was held at the University Club of Portland.

Emily Jane Moshofsky Aug. 25, 1931-Aug. 19, 2019 Emily Jane Moshofsky, age 87, of Lake Oswego, Oregon, passed away on Aug. 19, 2019. Jane was born Aug. 25, 1931. As an only child, Jane grew up on a filbert orchard in Richfield, Washington, where she learned the value of hard work. Her family then moved to Vida, Oregon, where she graduated from McKenzie High School, in a class of 17 students. Jane put herself through college at the University of Oregon and graduated with a degree in Business. While at the U of O, she met and married Art Moshofsky. Art was in the lumber business with his brother Ed. Jane cherished her role as mother to their three children, Linda, Dean and Doug. Jane’s feisty and competitive nature found a balance as a mom — where she demonstrated patience, kindness and love. She flourished in enabling her kids to identify what they enjoyed, and supporting them to be confident and successful. She taxied them from school to swim practices, meets, games, concerts and youth group. The family spent many hours at MAC, enjoying Sunday buffet and competing in many sports activities — especially the swim team. Jane’s family was active in their church. At Valley Community Presbyterian, she taught the fifth-grade mid-week class, and was a member of many bible studies herself. One memory of those days is the break out of the Yom Kippur war, with missile strike and air raids, during their Holy Land tour. Another is Christmas workshops in the Valley gym, where her family made wreaths, garlands, ornaments and bird feeders. Christmas is festive in her home.

CLUB NEWS Continued from page 17 Jane loved to spend countless hours creating beautiful botanical gardens — pruning and shaping her shrubs, bonsai trees and flower beds. When they made the move from Raleighwood to Lake Oswego, Jane loaded up several garbage cans full of her fortified soil. She would soon seed and grow her yard into one of the more beautiful landscapes on the lake. Jane had a passion for whimsical frog collectibles, which are sprinkled throughout their yard. Jane also enjoyed photography, allowing her to capture natural beauty with one of her many cameras. Later in life, Jane continued her artistic passion by coloring for hours when she was no longer able to walk through her garden. Through adult coloring books, Jane was able to bring beauty to landscapes, wildlife, and vibrant patterns that were sprinkled with inspirational words, verses, and themes. Jane and Art share a passion for the University of Oregon. Jane remembers how difficult it was to come from a small town and work herself through school. She wanted her legacy gift to help aspiring and talented students with similar struggles, and so this idea was instrumental to providing funds for the Pathway Oregon Program scholarship at the U of O. Through this scholarship, meritorious students with need are given an opportunity for higher education that they wouldn’t be able to pursue without help. Jane loved the idea of rewarding students like herself – those with a strong work ethic, persistence and resilience.

Free Your Mind and Your Life Will Follow

By Jake Ten Pas

S

ometimes you want to go where everybody knows your name. For 44 years at Multnomah Athletic Club, Fay Sasser was the employee who knew the most members’ names, helping to give the club the homey feeling for which it’s still known. She created community one interaction at a time, and her name lives on in MAC and Multnomah Athletic Foundation’s awarding of the annual scholarships in her name.

MATTHEW WYNER

It doesn’t take a memory like Sasser’s to remember the names of this year’s MAC Employee Scholarship Program recipients, who all have unforgettable tales to tell. Each one of them received $5,000 to help them further develop their stories by pursuing higher education opportunities. These dreamers envision a better world, and MAC and MAF are helping them to realize their full potential as they pursue their passions.

Leah Steindorf Leah Steindorf’s first name is pronounced like the princess of Star Wars fame, but don’t let that royal title mislead. Lest the word “princess” conjure images of delicacy or damsels in need of saving, know this: Steindorf can accurately fire a bow and arrow at full gallop on horseback. “That’s how the Mongolians were going to take over the world,” she says with just the faintest suggestion of a smile. Although she grew up in Germany, Steindorf spent her summers in Bend and Sisters, where she learned mounted archery from a world champion. She also developed her love of horses and the outdoors, both of which drive her to this day. “I’ve always been very connected to nature, I’ve always loved art, and I’ve always loved animals, specifically horses” Steindorf says. As a child, she attended a forest preschool, which took place outside all year long. Her father was a pilot, and the family often took advantage of cheap standby tickets to travel the world, broadening her perspective with each new destination. “It’s an education. It humbles you, and you learn so much,” she says of trips to places such as India, Thailand, Botswana and Egypt. “There are different ways of living and believing than you ever knew existed.” When she was 12, she learned a much harder lesson when her father left the family, stranding them in Germany without much in the way of a support network.

OCTOBER 2019

Eventually, Leah, her brother and mother located an apartment for rent in Portland, only to find when they arrived that the listing was a scam and they were now homeless. After registering at Lincoln High School without an address — so that Leah could continue her International Baccalaureate program — the Steindorfs stayed in an Airbnb for a month, followed by a stint in her volleyball coach’s mother’s basement. “We just had one suitcase each at first because everything was still being moved over,” Leah says.

Evidently, she had everything she needed. Since that humble arrival, Steindorf has built an impressive future for herself through intelligence, empathy, hard work and support. As a sophomore, she landed a job as a lifeguard and swim instructor at MAC, where she discovered the Fay Sasser Scholarship. “That job was a really big part of being introduced to American culture, and learning how to work with other people here,” Steindorf says. “I also got super clear that I wanted to work with children. Now my major is Family and Human Services.”


MAF Tributes Honor someone special or memorialize someone who has passed away by making a tribute gift to the Multnomah Athletic Foundation. Tributes fall under one of five designations: memorial, anniversary, get well, birthday or recognition. To make a contribution, contact MAF Executive Director Lisa Bendt at 503-517-2350 or lbendt@ MultnomahAthleticFoundation.com. This month’s tributes are listed below, with the honored individuals’ names in bold. Mike Diamond (memorial) Gabee and Barbara Acee Don and Patti Maltase Alan Director (memorial)

Enrolled in the University of Oregon’s Clark Honors College, she’s on track to graduate in 2021 with minors in art and outdoor pursuits. After that, she hopes to move on to graduate school, likely focusing on wilderness and equine therapy. “The scholarship has allowed me to continue going to school and helped me finance it,” she says. “We’ve had a lot of money challenges, and being able to contribute makes a very big difference. I’m super grateful.” Looking back on the obstacles that brought her to this point, she displays more wisdom than most people her age. “If I had not gone through what I’ve been through, I don’t think I would have the capacity to help other people. I am a very strong believer that everything happens for a reason.”

Cameron Dupon When a b-boy talks about popping, he doesn’t generally mean his Achilles tendon. A b-boy is someone who breaks, or breakdances, by the way, and popping is a style of dance akin to breaking. Any student of Cameron Dupon could likely tell you this. The dance instructor has helped popularize breaking at MAC, doubling the club’s offerings since 2012. All the while, he’s been performing with the Portland City Rockers, a local crew that has

represented hip-hop culture for nearly two decades. It was while dancing with them that he felt the wrong kind of pop in the back of his ankle. His Achilles was torn and fully ruptured. “It was my first major injury with breakdancing,” Dupon says. “I started when I was 12 or 13, and as I got older, the passion for dancing continued.” Dupon describes himself as not particularly talented early on, but says that struggle to improve is part of what fueled him to stick with it. “I had to learn different tricks and techniques to try to make myself stand out when people were doing way bigger moves than I was.” “Because the opportunities for doing shows and events were not as plentiful, I ended up transitioning more toward teaching,” he says. After getting his foot in the door at Parkrose High School, he took a position with MAC under former Dance Manager Laura Haney. Soon, he found himself drawn as much to instructing as to dancing. “I was able to really build a connection with the students,” Dupon says. “I realized that if I could teach my expertise, which was breakdancing, I could probably also teach general education. It was an evolutionary process.”

Now in her second year at University of Oregon, Jeter is putting her broadened perspective to use. She’s pursuing a bachelor of arts in general social sciences, after which she wants to get a masters in curriculum and teaching. She also works during the summer in MAC’s Youth Programs Department, gaining valuable on-the-job experience. Getting recognized and rewarded with a scholarship has freed her mind further by allowing her to focus on learning, rather than on how she’s going to make ends meet. “Being a first-generation student, it’s kind of difficult for me because I don’t have people I can turn to and ask for college advice, or how to work things out financially,” she says. “This kind of help makes me feel a sense of relief, and I’m very grateful for the push forward in my education. I’m balancing so many things, not just school, but work and home life too. Now [money] is one less thing I have to stress about.” Continued from page 21 Now that he’s out of his cast, Dupon not only looks forward to breaking again in December, but also to finishing the Graduate Teacher Education Program at PSU come spring. He says that the support he’s received from MAC and MAF has helped him not only to realize a new purpose, but to achieve his goals without further injuring himself financially.

“My mom is half Hispanic, so it’s a big part of my life that I identify with her heritage,” she explains. “When we understand other people, we can understand our own culture and ourselves better. I think it’s really important to be open to new ideas and how other cultures do things, such as governmental policies, ecological changes, sustainability, topics like that. That’s how we’re able to expand and grow.”

Marissa Montejano A lot has changed for Marissa Montejano since she was profiled in last year’s Fay Sasser Scholarship recipient roundup! In August, she got married, and before that, she was in Ecuador as part of her Spanish bilingual concentration. At the end of this school year, she’ll receive her master’s degree in speech and language pathology from Portland State University. Continued on page 25

“This scholarship means the world to me because I had to take out a decent amount of student loans. My goal this year was to try not to take out any loans at all. This scholarship allowed me to live on a smaller budget, and to not have to go into debt further to get my teaching license. “

Jaida Jeter “Gap year” can be a loaded term. Taking time off between high school and college can be hugely beneficial, but it can also disperse focus and be perceived as simply a vacation from reality. Not for Jaida Jeter, though. The Fay Sasser Scholarship recipient spent her gap year living with her grandparents in Ajijic, Mexico, not far from Guadalajara, working as an assistant English teacher for first- and second-grade students at a local bilingual school. She says the experience not only strengthened her second language, but also provided an invaluable immersion in another culture.

Continued from page 23 “I was planning my wedding while in grad school, which was like having another full-time job! Plus, I was coaching synchro part time, on top of full-time school and working at my research lab,” she says, referring lastly to her managerial duties at PSU’s Autism and Social Communication Lab. “A lot of this stuff sounds the same on paper, but I think I really grew in terms of diving deeper into speech language pathology and learning more about the clients I’m going to be serving, as well as the different topics it encompasses.” Needless to say, she was pretty thrilled when she won her second scholarship. She says she’s always poured her heart into coaching synchronized swimming at the club, and the feeling of being appreciated and supported by MAC and MAF means a great deal. “I feel like now I can find a job I’m passionate about, versus taking the first job I’m offered because I need to prioritize loans over a career.” Montejano also says that she’s gotten so much more from MAC than money. Her working experience at the club has taught her a degree of professionalism not always present in others her age. “Going into the clinics, and especially working with the parents of kids dealing with communications challenges, I don’t feel intimidated.” Teaching MAC kids synchro gave her confidence in her ability to speak to children and parents alike. “My experiences at MAC set me up to give and receive respect as I move into the other professional settings.”

MAC Keeps Falling for Apple Harvest Grower talks about annual event, club’s hunger for rare varieties

By Jake Ten Pas

F

or eight years, fruit grower and apple expert Randy Kiyokawa has brought bushels full of fall flavors to MAC. Every year, his Kiyokawa Apple Harvest packs the lobby full of varieties familiar and obscure, and all grown in his Parkdale Orchards near Mt. Hood. Sample, browse, buy and mingle. This year, the event takes place in the Cornerstone Lounge directly outside the Sports Pub, and will feature more than 40 varieties of apples and pears, plus spiced cider, specialty cocktails, caramel apples and fresh-baked pie. Kiyokawa also has a special connection with MAC Executive Chef Philippe Boulot. To get a taste of the relationship between chef and grower, keep reading this Q&A with the man behind the bounty. Winged M: How has the Kiyokawa Apple Harvest changed over the years? Randy Kiyokawa: At first, people were just happy to see us there. Now, some are buying boxes at a time and asking us ahead of time: “Can you bring a box of Honeycrisps to MAC, to the Apple Fest?” That’s been nice, having people who know us now and contact us directly to get fruit.

Have you gotten any crazy orders? RK: Not so much surprise orders, but a lot of the times I get requests for East Coast apples or heirloom apples. People want the unique varieties that you don’t see in regular stores. Those are the ones we like to bring to MAC and let members try. And usually they’re our best sellers. When you say “East Coast apples,” you’re talking about varieties not traditionally grown on the West Coast, that you’ve cultivated at your farm? RK: When I say “East Coast apples,” they’re varieties that are more prominently grown back East or in the Midwest, even Ohio, which we don’t generally grow out here commercially. I buy the trees or I graft the trees to the varieties that customers don’t see other places: Northern Spy, Winesaps, Gravenstein, Cortland, Winter Banana, Newtown Pippin, just to name a few.

New Practice. New Location. Same Surgeon.

NOW OPEN IN NW PORTLAND

Dr. Michael M. Kim is a double board-certified Facial Plastic Surgeon who is Princeton-educated and Johns Hopkins-trained with over 10 years of experience. He is a proud native of the Pacific Northwest and has now opened his own private practice in order to craft the best patient experience with no compromises. Dr. Kim’s surgeries and procedures include: • Rhinoplasty & Revision Rhinoplasty • Facelift • Necklift • Browlift • Eyelid lift • Lip lift • Non-surgical facial injectable treatments

And now introducing EmbraceRF, the latest in minimally-invasive facial rejuvenation. It is comprised of three game-changing technologies called Facetite, Accutite, and Morpheus8 that all use radiofrequency energy to help remodel skin and soft tissue. Facetite and Accutite perform Radiofrequency Assisted Lipolysis (RFAL) that liquifies fat cells and tightens the connections between the skin and deeper structures. Both are excellent alternatives to surgery for those in the “treatment gap” whose agi aging changes can no longer be sufficiently treated by injectables alone, but do not need or want surgery (such as a facelift or necklift) with its associated scars, downtime, and cost. Morpheus8 is the deepest and most effective radiofrequency microneedling device on the market and can vastly improve fine lines and wrinkles of the face and body. Call us today to schedule a consultation to see if these treatments are right for you. 1849 NW Kearney St, #300 Portland, OR 97209 503.575.1910

CULINARY Sounds like you know him well?

Continued from page 26 Roughly how many varieties of apples do you grow? RK: We’re at over 120 apple varieties. European and Asian pears, over a dozen; cherries and peaches, about 10. We also have blueberries and kiwi. Not the big fuzzy brown ones, but smaller, what some people call mini, baby or Arctic kiwis. We also have a lot of plums, prunes and pluots. And there’s this brand new fruit that we planted. It’s a cross between a cherry and a plum called a pluerry. Sweet Pixie is the name of the variety. You usually bring pears to the Apple Fest, don’t you? RK: Yeah, yeah. In fact, Philippe (Boulot) is one of my best pear customers, as he uses a lot of them in his dishes, desserts and elsewhere. I can always count on his pear orders.

RK: Philippe was one of my first chefs — he ran one of the first restaurants that I delivered to when we started up, the Heathman. That helped to establish my little route, which I used to do myself. Now, between the restaurants and stores like Green Zebra, Cherry Sprout and Food Front, we have quite a little distribution. I always thank Philippe for being one of the first to step forward and buy fruit from us directly. That’s awesome. Switching gears, what were those tasty pink-fleshed apples you had last year? RK: Mountain Rose. We grow about six different varieties of red-fleshed apples. The Mountain Rose is one of the best for cooking because it doesn’t turn brown when you cut it. Another is called the Pink Pearl, and that’s maybe my second favorite. Probably has better flavor, but it’s not as intense.

It seems like there used to be only five kinds of apples that you found in every store. There were Red and Golden Delicious, Granny Smith and a handful of others. Then Fujis came out … RK: And Galas. ... and Braeburns, and it feels like it’s exploded from there. Every year there are at least a couple of new varieties. I think I saw one this year called like a Piku? RK: Oh, Kiku, yeah, it’s a Japanese one. The Sweetango is another, and Cosmic Crisp yet another. There are a lot of breeding programs here in the United States and all over the world. The Honeycrisp was developed at the University of Minnesota Agricultural Experiment Station. They’ve come out with a number of other varieties. If people think they’re good, then nursery folks craft and make the trees, and growers buy them. They’re making this more exclusive. They’re now becoming what are called “club apples,” and you have to belong to the marketing group to be able to raise the apple. Continued on page 31

CULINARY Continued from page 29 That’s really interesting. RK: But you’re right, there used to be just the red, golden, green apple, your Newtowns and Granny Smith. The problem is that there are all these new varieties coming out, and there’s only so much shelf space that a retailer will allot for apples or pears. Pears, there aren’t a whole bunch of new ones; apples, I mean there are literally thousands that are being made every year. Is there an apple that’s most popular every year at MAC? RK: There are probably three that we make sure that we bring twice as many of: Honeycrisp, Mountain Rose and Crimson Crisp. Do you have a personal favorite, or is that like asking a music fan to pick their favorite album? RK: Just like that, or asking a parent which one’s their favorite kid. When people ask me, I just say, it depends on the time of the year. Early in the season, my favorite is Zestar. It was also developed at the University of Minnesota. Great taste, great texture and that tanginess that a lot of people like. Not as dense as a Jazz or Crimson Crisp, but still that great flavor. Midway through the season, I would say something like a Jonagold; for two or three weeks, it’s really good. Do you have a favorite part of the Apple Harvest event?

KIYOKAWA FAMILY ORCHARDS

RK: I enjoy seeing familiar faces, both the members and staff, and working with Philippe and Deanna [Bascomb] and Phil [Oswalt]. The Apple Fest is the culmination of the end of the season. I look forward to it because by then, all our fruit is off the tree. WM

or a night owl, there’s nothing more terrifying than having to be somewhere at 5 a.m. Even folks who work a standard 8- or 9-to-5 job might balk at having to wake up at 4 a.m. So, what does it take to scare a person who not only isn’t creeped out by the notion of getting up that early, but actually embraces it on a daily basis? The answer is a MAC tradition, the Early Birds Spook Walk/Run. Every year, it takes the bold of heart on a two-mile trek across the river to Lone Fir Cemetery, one of Portland’s oldest graveyards. “It’s always dark, and sometimes it’s raining and the leaves have fallen,” says longtime Early Bird Karen Olson, setting the scene. “It’s just a beautiful spot over there, especially during fall. It’s very ‘October-ish,’ and it is absolutely spooky.”

MAC member, Early Bird and Lone Fir volunteer Mary Faulkner. “A cemetery is just a history park, and it really provides a meaningful experience. As you’re walking around, it gives you the opportunity to appreciate the sacrifices that people made, and the accomplishments they reached.” Faulkner is the storyteller who illuminates the history hinted at on gravestones with yarns that stretch from the eerie to the hilarious to the tear-jerking. She says almost every aspect of the cemetery tells a story if visitors are open to hearing them. “For more than 100 years, there was a tradition that when someone was buried at Lone Fir, family members could plant a tree there in their honor. So, now it’s

second only to Hoyt Arboretum in terms of the diversity of trees found in the area.” She does the same thing for graveyards that Woody Guthrie did for America’s natural wonders and Bruce Springsteen does for the open road. She makes listeners want to never stop exploring. “I truly believe there’s no right or wrong way to enjoy a cemetery, as long as it’s not disrespectful or vandalizing,” she says. “It’s a place for art and culture and a place for inspiration across the spectrum, from Shakespeare to zombie movies. It’s a beautiful place to contemplate, and a beautiful place to celebrate. As the Early Birds’ unique tradition proves, it’s also a great place to get some exercise.” Continued on page 34

“We put little glow sticks out to light the way to the graves. When runners enter the gates, they know exactly where to find us,” she continues. “Sometimes people dress up in scary or funny costumes. They put out Halloween candy, pumpkin-spiced bread and coffee. You will for sure hear two or three stories, learn some history, and make some great new memories while you’re at it.”

Haunting History “Lone Fir Cemetery is one of the best places to learn about local history in terms of the variety of people who are buried there, and all of the stories of how they came to Oregon and the lives that they lived through the generations,” says

Among the Living For beloved club member Ione Clair, the event has become as much about connecting — and staying in touch — with the good friends on this side of the veil as remembering those who’ve gone before us. “It’s so great. The best part, I think for me, is there are people my age, and I’m old,” she says.

OFF THE CUFF CHAT WITH GERRY FR ANK and shop his storied cufflink collection

Thursday, October 3, 11am – 3pm Starting in the Mad Men 1950’s when a crisp cuff was frequently punctuated with a noteworthy cufflink, the ever-affable Gerry Frank was travelling the globe, collecting remarkable bits of hardware as tokens of his journeys. Consider acquiring a pair from a true connoisseur’s collection— stop by on the 3rd or any time that suits.

“Then there are all those wonderful young women, whom I love. I have all boys, two sons and two grandsons, but no girls. These girls in their 30s who come out for this event are my girls! The kids are just so nice to the old people, and they’re all from different backgrounds.” Clair recalls that her journey to being an Early Bird started in a 6 a.m. group exercise class, and intensified when she went back to work after raising her boys. She decided she was going to have to get up even earlier to get her workout in before starting her job each day. “I knew I’d never come after work, no way!,” she says, chuckling. “I started meeting others who were at the club that early, and we started walking. Eventually, that lead us to the Lone Fir, and that’s how we got involved in the Spook Walk/Run.” Soon, Early Birds were brainstorming costume concepts, which Clair says have included pirates, cowboys and ghosts, among many others over the years. “We even made a cauldron with smoke coming up out of it.” While nothing was served out of said cauldron, good food shared with good friends has become a constant of the event. This year, Clair says she’ll make Harvest Bread that was originally popularized among the Early Birds by former member Carol Rudy. “She passed a number of years ago, and I just came across her obituary this morning when I was going through some stuff,” Clair says. “She was great fun, and always used to get into costume. She gave me the recipe, and I think about her every time I make it.”

Return of the Living History “The very first woman who was convicted of murder is buried there, as well as Dr. [James] Hawthorne. He gave money so people who immigrated to Oregon without their families, or much in the way of funds, could have proper burials,” Olson says, rattling off a few memorable stories she’s Continued on page 37

Dr. James C. Hawthorne

Anonymous Laborers

“Julius Caesar”

A prominent local physician and politician, Dr. Hawthorne ran Portland’s Hospital for the Insane, as was the terminology at the time. According to Mary Faulkner, “Many of his patients could have been widows and widowers, people who didn’t speak English, or just had some mental or physical challenges. The first woman who was convicted of murder, Charity Lamb, was really a domestic violence case, and she was a patient of Dr. Hawthorne’s because it didn’t seem civilized at the time to imprison a woman.

Many Chinese workers are also buried near Dr. Hawthorne in Block 14. Says Faulkner, it was a tradition that “the workers’ remains would be sent back to the provinces from which they came. They signed contracts with their employers stating, ‘If something happens to me, I want to be reunited with my family.’”

This MAC employee loved baseball so much that, when greeted by members, would reply, “Play Ball!” That phrase is inscribed on his gravestone, a drawing of which was included in the syndicated Ripley’s Believe it or Not column. The local character and “mascot” was also known as Caesar Taylor, although his real name was Caesar Short.

“Oftentimes, when his patients would die, family members wouldn’t come to retrieve them, so Dr. Hawthorne personally made arrangement at Lone Fir Cemetery, where his family plot was, for his patients to be buried there,” she continues. “Sadly, they probably all had wooden markers that have deteriorated over time, and they are underneath a sidewalk today. However, plans are underway to create a memorial to recognize them.”

Those contracts were honored at different times over the years, but Faulkner says historians are under the impression that the remains of those who did not have contracts stayed in Portland. “That tended to be women and children,” she notes. “There is a blend of unmarked graves on Block 14 — of Dr. Hawthorne’s patients and early Chinese settlers. That’s a fascinating story.”

Keep Portland Beautiful

When he passed in 1906, members of MAC pitched into the community effort to raise funds for his burial. Rev. G.E. Jackson delivered a poetic eulogy at his grave after a procession from Finley’s Chapel to Lone Fir. Included was the line, “No more in gorgeous robes attired will Julius pose, adored, admired.”

Continued from page 34 learned from listening to Faulkner over the years. “There’s always that history aspect to this event, on top of the funny costumes and really nice run.” This year, she and Faulkner are organizing the event together, which means she’ll get to the cemetery before 5 a.m. to meet a representative of the city. Each year, Metro unlocks the gates especially for the Early Birds. Bringing supplies for the festivities precludes taking part in the run, but she seems more than satisfied to set up and then sit back and enjoy the atmosphere, interpersonal affinity, and awe-inspiring anecdotes. “There certainly could be easier ways to celebrate Halloween,” Faulkner says, describing the challenges of setting up fresh-baked goods in the dark. “The fact that everybody runs or walks over there, and then pauses to hear a story — sometimes funny, sometimes heartbreaking — is what makes it such a unique tradition, and I just love it. All I have to do is tell stories and maybe add lighting to a grave so everyone can see it. I just try to give a little more insight around what it was like to live in Portland a long time ago.” The event itself has racked up its own history, with attendees celebrating its 35th anniversary this year. Longtime Early Birds and club movers and shakers such as Holly Lekas, Bill Zander, Roger Jensen and Leslie Vanbellinghen all have fond memories of their chapters with the Walk/ Run. Vanbellinghen also fondly remembers Rudy’s Harvest Bread, while Jensen still has the hat they made for their very first run. As the days get shorter and the weather more conducive to indoor pursuits, this fresh-air tradition continues to be a beacon in the darkness for those looking for familiarity in an ever-changing city. “I’m just really thankful that we get to continue to go there, because it’s pretty cool,” Peterson says. In Faulkner’s words, “There’s a little bit of something for everybody in the early morning light, or lack thereof, at Lone Fir.” WM

The Beauty of Butterflies

M

artin Schwartz returns to MAC in October for his third presentation about butterflies, sharing his photographs of Pacific Northwest and South American species, as well as leading a discussion on the life cycle of butterflies and butterfly ecology and conservation. Schwartz has been an active MAC hiker since 2008, as well as a former chair and co-chair of the Walking & Hiking Committee. I recently caught up with him on an eight-mile hike from Wakeena Falls to Angel Rest in the Columbia River Gorge, an area recovering from the 2017 burn. One of the attractions of a long hike is the chance to connect with other hikers. Multiple hours on the trail provide the often-rare opportunity to have an in-depth conversation with one, or several, people. Karen Livingston: How did you get so interested in photographing butterflies? Martin Schwartz: I’ve been interested in butterflies since I was a young boy growing up in the Philadelphia suburbs, I caught, identified and displayed them in frames. Back then, unlike today, butterflies were common. As a teenager, my interest in butterflies became dormant as hormoneinduced pursuits took over. Fifty years later, after I retired from practicing obstetrics and gynecology at KaiserPermanente, serendipity took flight. While I was eating lunch with a group of MAC hikers at the top of Table Mountain, a pale swallowtail landed on a flower two feet

from me. I took out a small camera from my shirt pocket, and took a picture. The photo was good enough for me to enter it in the MAC Art Show. The rest is history KL: What is your favorite place to hunt for butterflies? MS: The Manu Road, which runs through Peru’s Manu National Park, is a nature lover’s paradise. Its diversity of species of plants, insects and birds may be unequalled on our planet. KL: The butterfly photographs you’ve shared at previous MAC talks look like they take lots of patience and skill. Are they staged? What’s your secret?

MS: My photographs from the Pacific Northwest are the result of knowing where and when to seek out butterflies, patience, and a fair amount of luck. My photos from South America are a result of all of the above, plus a bait that attracts butterflies, at least in some parts of South America. Believe it or not, painting a foul-smelling brew made from rotting fish on leaves attracts multiple species of butterflies, which become so infatuated with drinking the stuff that they will let you get within a couple of inches for a photograph. KL: Are there favorite butterflies that you have seen? And is there one still at top of your bucket list? MS: You will see some of my favorites at my next presentation. My bucket list is overflowing! KL: During our walk above Wakeena Falls, we saw what looked like a nondescript white butterfly, which much to our surprise, alit on a leaf close to us and stayed remarkably still. MS: I was delighted when I realized that we were looking at a margined white, which is a native species only found in Pacific Northwest forests. It allowed me to get some good photos. When we see a white butterfly in city or suburban parks and gardens it is almost invariably a cabbage white. Cabbage whites, popularly known as cabbage butterflies, are an invasive species that has replaced the native white butterflies in many parts of the world. Seeing a margined white is special. Life is good on a MAC hike! Join Schwartz at 7 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 24. Register at themac.com. WH01024


EVENTS VETERANS RECOGNITION BREAKFAST

One Father’s Mission to Remember His Son and Make a Difference How one Gold Star father is aiding veterans in ways he never imagined By Staige Davis Hodges

O

n Aug. 15, 2012, on a remote mountaintop in southeastern Afghanistan, Army PFC Andrew Keller’s infantry combat team came under attack, and he was killed by enemy fire. He was 22 years old. Andrew’s flag-draped casket was flown from Dover Air Force Base and received at Portland International Airport by 200 Patriot Guard Riders before burial with full military honors. As they arrived at the airport, Andrew’s family drank from a bottle of Crown Royal whiskey. His favorite. The iconic purple bag, holding the bottle, was buried with him, along with the family bible placed in his hands, inscribed with loving messages. It was, says his father, Jeff Keller, a fitting tribute that Andrew would have liked. Upon graduating from Beaverton’s Southridge High School in 2008, Andrew knew he wanted to join the Army. Before he left for Basic Training at Fort Benning, Georgia, his father purchased the exact type of rifle Andrew would be using. For months, Andrew practiced shooting, using nearly 9,000 rounds and learning how to break down and reassemble the rifle with military precision. While at Basic Training, Andrew proudly shared, “Dad, everything you taught me is everything the drill instructor taught me.” He was one of only 25% in his class who had ever fired a weapon, and the drill instructors took notice of his skills, quickly making him the range officer in charge of safety on the shooting range. Qualifying five times as an expert, Andrew was immensely proud of himself, as was his dad. It was, Jeff told Andrew, “Just the way grandpa taught me to shoot.” In the months and years following Andrew’s death, Jeff Keller has worked to channel grief and energy into remembering Andrew’s sacrifice and sharing a message of hope, while bringing assistance to veterans and their families. Jeff now serves as manager of the USO at PDX, and spends a lot of time with Tribute to Honor, founded in 2002, to support Portland-area responders returning from recovery efforts on 9/11. In 2015, Jeff and Grant Coffee, Gold Star father of USMC Corporal Keaton Coffee, reached out to Tribute to Honor to add a military component, and launched its dog companion program. Since then, they have placed 14 trained companion dogs with veterans, thanks to fundraising efforts and donations from local breeders. Each donated dog wears name patches in honor of two local fallen heroes. Additionally, in-kind donations help Tribute to Honor supply appliances and vehicles to challenged veterans’ families.

Jeff Keller (above), Andrew Keller (left) Andrew Keller is one of 157 Oregon and Washington soldiers killed since the War on Terror began in 2002. The Southridge community created a plaza and concession area to memorialize him and other fallen soldiers, and the City of Beaverton created Andrew Keller Memorial Circle off SW Barrows Road, which it dedicated on Memorial Day 2013. Each year on his “angel-versary,” his friends remember him with love, taking shots of Crown Royal and posting pictures in his honor. For Jeff, his own life was put into perspective, and his path helps ensure Andrew is never forgotten: “If I can make one 100th of the difference he made, I will die a contented man.” MAC is proud to welcome Jeff Keller as the keynote speaker at this year’s Veterans Recognition Breakfast, 8 a.m. Tuesday, Nov. 5. MAC veterans are hosted; MAC non-veteran members are $22; and guests are $26. Registration is required. For more information, call Staige Davis Hodges in Events & Catering at 503-517-7273.

Experience Silvies Valley Ranch For Your Special Holiday By: Hank Hickox

Out of the City and Onto Your Next Adventure

Western ranch activities on a historic eastern Oregon working cattle ranch are a lot of fun. There is something for everybody at Silvies, where ranch experiences can include: sleigh rides, ice fishing, cross-country skiing, hiking, biking, and cattle and goat feeding. Learning to cook sourdough and gourmet chevon dishes while doing a little wine tasting to top off your day can also be included. Or, just cuddle up by the fire and enjoy the solitude, natural beauty and wildlife of Silvies Valley, where it’s so quiet, you can hear your heart beat!

Indulge Yourself

After a fun-filled day exploring the ranch or relaxing by the fire, rejuvenate at Silvies’ Rocking Heart Spa. The 17,000 square foot spa features a 1/2 Olympic size lap pool, climbing wall, saunas, hot tubs, exercise equipment and quiet room. The spa offers a variety of treatments including body and foot massages, facials, manicures and pedicures, hot rocks, skin & nail treatments and much more. Relax in the pure quiet and tranquility of The Rocking Heart Spa. You’ll discover the Native American inspired spa is the ultimate addition to your special holiday.

Savor the Food and Drink

You will love the “Ranch to Table” Blue Mountain Gourmet Cuisine and, being a cattle and goat ranch, homegrown grass-finished organic beef and chevon dominates the menu – but it’s not all red meat. The bread is all sourdough, made on the ranch from a 100-year-old family starter. Many of the herbs are sourced from the ranch and local Oregon farms supply fruits, vegetables and many other ingredients used by Silvies Executive Chef, Damon Jones - Oregon Beef Council’s 2019 Chef of the Year. You can sample from our collection of over 110 different scotches, and from the extensive wine list with pairings for the 7 course tasting menus.

Exclusive Offer for MAC Members Only

Free all-inclusive day at the ranch when you buy 2 for a 3 night stay, double-occupancy (includes room, gourmet meals, western experiences, etc., etc.). Call us at 1-800-SILVIES (745-8437) and visit us online at www.silvies.us/MAC for complete details about this specially priced MAC member package.

ATHLETICS Advice From a First-Time Marathoner Training and mindset are equally important

I

magine deciding to run a first marathon after learning that parenthood was just around the corner. That’s just what Jamison McAndie did, and after 20 weeks of intentional marathon training, he crushed it at this year’s Eugene Marathon with a time of 3 hours, 22 minutes. In all honesty, McAndie didn’t jump off the couch and achieve this result. With some collegiate running and a solid four-year high school career in both track and cross country, he was no stranger to a foot race. But, participation in other athletics left him unable to run due to two separate ACL injuries. After recovering and several years off, he has enjoyed a continuous running habit — proving that with time, patience and rehab, injuries can be overcome. Jamison incorporated track workouts and tempo runs — starting slow and working into racing speed — into his plan. Along with running, he attributes targeted body weight resistance exercises and a light weight-training regimen to his success. He incorporated these before and after runs to help target weaker parts of his body — mainly hips, hamstrings and core. Also, there were lots of saunas at MAC. For anyone looking to embark on a marathon — there is a marathon out there for everyone who wants to give it a try — McAndie offers three pieces of advice: “Make a training plan that you’re comfortable with and stick to it. Get to the start line healthy and confident, have fun in your race, and appreciate the work you put in to get there.” That last piece of advice may be the most critical. Staying positive and having a plan about what to focus on mentally at different stages made all the difference for McAndie. He reminds us, “to be appreciative and thoughtful about all the work that you put in that leads you to that moment.”

ATHLETICS Handball Goes Outdoors

T

here are an increasing number of MAC Handball players heading outside to play one-wall handball. One-wall is played with a standard handball and/or with a big ball (similar to a racquetball) and is an ideal way to introduce younger kids to the game. The Alten Foundation, created by 75-year MAC member Irv Alten, was instrumental in adding three one-wall handball courts at Roseway Heights Middle School (7334 NE Siskiyou Street), and it’s become a weekend destination for competition and camaraderie for handball enthusiasts. Bring lawn chairs and a picnic lunch and watch fellow members play. Support the game, and help build the handball community!

MAC has more ways to play ball than members can shake a racquet at. Figuring out which one is right for you is no small task. For those who don’t have time to try every last one, the graphic below removes the guess work. Give it a glance, and get ready to make a racquet of your own.

RACQUETBALL Why it’s fun: Racquetball is easy to learn, and even a beginner can hit the ball hard and get out their frustrations. It can be played at any age, and the ball always bounces back to you. Who it’s for: Anyone looking to improve hand-eye coordination or foot work, or cross-train for other sports. Plus, it burns 1,000 calories an hour. Families love it because they can play together. MAC is part of the Oregon High School Racquetball League, so teens will like it, too.

PLAY NOW! Beginners’ Clinics start in October. Pelham Memorial Tournament of Champions: Dec. 5-8.

SQUASH

PICKLEBALL

HANDBALL

Why it’s fun: Enjoy strategy and athletics? Squash takes both fitness and cunning. Plus, it’s a lifetime sport that can be played by ages 6 and older!

Why it’s fun: There’s a smile on the face of everyone who’s playing it, and the rules are set up for a beginner to be able to take on an expert, with both of them having fun.

Why it’s fun: Handball is a high-energy, fast-paced game. A tightknit group of players and coaches are there to help. Like a good challenge? This one lasts a lifetime.

Who it’s for: People committed to their physical and mental well-being. It was voted healthiest sport to play by Forbes magazine, and an hour of squash can burn up to 1,000 calories. Families and fans of doubles competition will find plenty to love.

Who it’s for: Most anyone who has played table tennis or other paddle sports, tennis, squash or racquetball in the past, regardless of level. Ever laced up sneakers? No matter the game, pickleball is calling!

Who it’s for: Any athlete seeking to improve strength, footwork, hand-eye coordination and mental toughness. Serves as excellent conditioning and cross-training for baseball, softball, lacrosse, hockey, basketball, racquetball, squash and tennis.

ATHLETICS Finding the Right Pickleball Paddle

W

hether someone is playing pickleball for the first time or is a seasoned player looking for a new paddle, there are three key factors to consider before making a purchase: weight, grip and shape. Paddles range from 6 to 14 ounces. The benefits of a lighter paddle include increased ball control, better maneuverability and less stress on the elbow and shoulder. Downsides include a less powerful drive, the need for a stronger swing and added difficulty hitting hard shots. A heavier paddle offers more power, requires less effort to hit the ball hard and makes it easier to keep the ball deep. The cons are stress on injuries, such as elbows; less control; and increased fatigue when playing for a long time. Heavy paddles provide power, but when looking to increase ball control and touch dink shots, a lighter paddle is the better choice. Determining what kind of paddle works best takes time on the court, however, it’s recommended players start with a mid-weight paddle, 7.3-8.4 ounces. Additionally, consider the texturized surface of the paddle. Roughness grabs the ball, while glossy polished graphite quickly generate a quick return of power. A few paddles to consider and try: Radical Tour or Xtreme Elite by Head (available at the Mporium), Sensa Ply Core paddles by Gamma, New AMPED paddle by Selkirk, Elite Pro or Encore X series and Poach Advantage by Engage, Titan, Supernova or Crush by ProLite, and Paddletek Element.

Swimmer Excels at Junior Nationals, Qualifies for Olympic Trials

K

evin Keil was MAC’s sole qualifier to Junior Nationals, held Aug. 6-10 in Stanford, California, where he swam 100 percent best times in all five of his events. He qualified for the C Final in the 200 IM and B Final in the 200 Breaststroke and 400 IM. He broke the team record in the Boys 15-18 LC 200 Breaststroke, swimming a time of 2:20.06! The highlight of the meet was the 400 IM on the second day. Keil had a phenomenal swim in prelims, dropping more than three seconds to place 12th with a 4:28.41, the closest he had ever been to qualifying for Olympic Trials (400 IM-4:25.99). In the finals, he swam his race perfectly, keeping the Butterfly smooth; building the Backstroke; attacking and continuing to build the Breaststroke, where he pulled ahead of the field; and then giving everything he had in Freestyle to finish under the Olympic Trials time, going 4:25.65 and winning the B Final, placing ninth overall! His times in the 200 BR, 200 FL, 200 IM and 400 IM were in the top five of all time for both the Boys 15-18 and Open age groups. Next stop: the Olympic Trials in Omaha, Nebraska, in June 2020!

ATHLETICS Fall Pilates Classes

The Importance of Rest in an Exercise Plan

Pilates for Golf

Ski & Snowboard Pilates Workshop

Mondays, Oct. 7-Dec. 16 Noon & 1 p.m., Pilates Studio

1 p.m. Sundays and/or Thursdays, Nov. 3-Dec. 19

It’s no secret that elite athletes are turning to Pilates for pre-season and postseason conditioning to build strength, increase flexibility and get in shape for their favorite sport. Golf demands a precise balance of mental and physical skill, and pros such as Phil Mickelson and Jordan Spieth are known to incorporate Pilates into their regular training regimen. Pilates helps increase hip stability, strengthens upper back muscles and increases range of movement to aid the potential for longer drives. It also help strengthens mindbody awareness, and all aspects of the core. Having a strong core allows golfers to set up the ball correctly and efficiently without pain. Correct positioning increases the chance of a correct swing. Additionally, Pilates emphasizes initiating every movement from the core through the peripheral limbs, so swinging power is generated from the ground up, which will lead to increased clubhead speed.

GETTY IMAGES

The cost for the Pilates for Golf is $34 per session; space is limited to five participants per hour session. No Pilates experience necessary. To register or for more information, contact Jenna Brumfield at jbrumfield@themac.com.

Prepare for the winter season by strengthening core and key muscle groups in a Pilates circuit class lead by Mandee Louie. This small-group class uses a mix of the Pilates Reformer, Core Align, Cadillac Tower, BOSU, and Pilates Chair in a circuit format to gain endurance, flexibility and stability. Past participants have seen a huge improvement in their performance on the mountain, in their sport and strength in general. Classes are held in the Pilates studio and are limited to six participants. Pilates equipment experience is necessary. Those new to Pilates should schedule a private or semi-private session prior to class start date. Cost is $238 for seven classes (one per week), and $408 to attend 14 sessions (twice a week). Contact Mandee Louie, mlouie@themac.com to register.

Pilates Reformer 6:30 p.m Thursdays Nov. 7-Dec. 5, Pilates Studio The Pilates Reformer is an innovative machine that both strengthens and lengthens every muscle in the body. This four-week-long workshop, led by Ishbel Cavaleri, teaches the fundamentals of Pilates, and how to safely and effectively work on the Reformer. Benefits include long and lean muscle tone and relief from pain. Cavaleri has been teaching Pilates and training instructors for 20 years. Taking this workshop allows members to meet the 3-5 private session requirement needed to enter group Reformer classes. The cost $144 for all four sessions. Register at themac.com.

he time between exercise is just as important as what’s done during a workout. Pushing weight increases strength, but it is the adaptation a body makes in response to pushing weight that ultimately makes one stronger. The effectiveness of a training, therefore, depends on what one does between exercises as well as the time between sessions. Start with an annual exercise plan with defined rest periods. Most competitive athletes plan their exercise a year in advance. They manage exercise efforts in sections with defined periods of rest, based upon competition dates. The simple term for this is periodization. The easiest way to think about it is exercising hard three weeks of the month, and going easy the fourth week. Every three months, spend a week pushing things a little harder to measure gains. And at least once a year, allow time to have fun and enjoy newfound fitness, and don’t worry about getting in the next workout. It’s also important to pay attention to nutrition, eat well, get enough fluids, treat injuries and get enough sleep. Make use of acupuncture, massage and naps, and don’t just play through the pain. Over the year, be vigilant about the warning signs of fatigue. Loss of sleep, mood changes, feeling very tired, infections, illnesses, heavy legs or sudden weight loss may indicate one is working too hard and not resting enough. Also think about age. Even world-class age group athletes put in fewer days of hard work a week than when they were younger. One can still see improvement in running times on a three-day-a-week schedule. The other days, swim and do core work. For example, running on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday allows two days at the track, a long run day and a two-day recovery. On any day, if performance lags, it’s okay to stop a workout. There is nothing to gain if the quality of work is not there. It’s fine to be tired before a workout, but poor performance can indicate fatigue. The only thing better than working harder is resting smarter.

MAC Walk Fact: The Eagle Creek Trail was 100 years old when it was destroyed by fire in 2017. It was developed as part of the Columbia River Gorge Park, which was established in 1915 as a unit of the Oregon National Forest. In 1916, the Forest Service built the Eagle Creek Campground and began construction on the 14-mile Eagle Creek Trail to Wahtum Lake by blasting into the sheer basalt cliffs to ensure the best views. The Forest Service recently announced that the trail is in the final phases of reconstruction before reopening to the public.

From the Archives

Presidential Visits (Above) Warren G. Harding spoke at Multnomah Field (later Multnomah Stadium) during his time as president. On July 4, 1923, he addressed a large crowd as part of a West Coast trip. Not long after leaving Portland, Harding became ill and died, likely of a heart attack, in San Francisco on Aug. 2. (Left) President William Howard Taft leaves Multnomah Field on Oct. 2, 1909. During his visit to Portland, President Taft delivered an address to approximately 20,000 school children at Multnomah Field. Robert Krohn, MAAC’s athletic instructor, organized nearly 4,000 youth to form a “living” American flag display during the event — a sight that delighted the president. —Luke Sprunger, club archivist

Marian O. Hodges, M.D., MPH Medical director, Providence Senior Health Bain Chair, Geriatric Medicine, Providence in Oregon Why Providence? The Providence Mission of caring for the poor and the vulnerable spoke to me and was the deciding factor for me to care for older adults here rather than at another health system. To me, our elders are among our most vulnerable. I wanted to work someplace where that care mattered.

What’s your favorite part of working at Providence? Providence has always been about the people – from my patients and families to my clinic and hospital co-workers. That’s why I’ve stayed here my entire career of more than 25 years. It has been my family away from home.

What are your hobbies? I love to cook, along with reading novels. For recreation, our family backpacks and hikes, and we also subscribe to the Portland Opera.

Who are your mentors? Dr. Mark Rosenberg, former director of the Internal Medicine Residency Program at Providence Portland Medical Center, has guided and supported me unflaggingly

For more information, visit: ProvidenceFoundations.org/seniorhealth

from my first day here. I have had other mentors and many advisors, but Mark has been my touchstone all along, and I owe him so much.

What is your dream for Providence in Oregon? I dream constantly about how we can make care for older adults easier to access, more seamless from one place to the next, more caring and more affordable. Our Senior Health Program is working tirelessly to make these things happen. I particularly dream about this for everyone with dementia and their families.

Why does philanthropy matter to your work? Philanthropy has made a tremendous difference in my work, starting with support for a book I co-wrote with Anne Hill, Help is Here: When someone you love has dementia. Proceeds from the book go back to the Providence Foundations and support our work in Senior Health. The Providence Foundations and many donors have believed in our vision to transform care for seniors and their families. Donor support breaks down barriers and makes new care possible.
