When I speak with fellow members they often have inquiries that range from information on programming numbers to membership activity. Fall programming enrolments provide a great snapshot of the many activities that go on in the Club, so I thought I’d summarize a few of the facts and figures that tell the story of the Club and the membership. THE FACILITY: The main clubhouse of Hollyburn is approximately 190,000 square feet, there are 25 tennis courts (12 indoor, 8 outdoor, 3 grass and 2 clay) and associated access and parking stalls all located on a 49 acre property which is situated between two creeks. The main pool hosts 200,000 US gallons of water, there are 20,500 US Gallons in the leisure pool and 1,625 US Gallons in the hot tub, all of which require about $9,600 worth of pool chemicals in a year. Our annual natural gas budget to operate all of the facilities is currently $216,000 while our electrical budget is $250,000. Our laundry supplies cost $30,000 per year while spa supplies cost $36,000 per year. This is partly due to the fact that we clean a whopping 728,000 towels a year (2,000 per day) and supply 25,000 men’s and women’s razors (combined) a year and 600 cans of shaving cream. We certainly are a clean and well groomed 8 membership. The club is maintained and operated by some 220 employees, where Jan Freeman is the longest serving employee with 31 years of service at Hollyburn. THE MEMBERSHIP A question that I frequently hear is “How many members are there in Hollyburn?” Hollyburn has a number of categories of memberships but the best way to describe the majority of the members that use the Club from day to day are Regular members. The number of Regular memberships has remained remarkably consistent over the past five to ten years. There are 1,750 Regular memberships in the Club, we add approximately 50 Regular memberships a year (and are on track to do so again this year) and we experience 55 retired/ resigned memberships per year. A waitlist kicks-in at 1,775 Regular memberships which means we have a healthy well managed membership balance. But Regular memberships don’t tell the whole story, with each regular member there is often a spouse and/or dependants and at Hollyburn there are 2,839 of those people. So simply accounted for, there are a total of 4,589 members who can regularly use the club. In addition to the Regular memberships there are Senior memberships – where many of those members do also regularly use and participate in the activities of the Club, as well as other categories such as Non-resident members, Social members, etc.). There are 1,087 people with non-regular memberships and an additional 1,812 folks linked to those categories of membership, which according to my calculations adds up to a grand sum of 7,488 people with some sort of membership relationship with Hollyburn. As we are celebrating Hollyburn’s 50th year, it is notable that there are 28 original members at Hollyburn (through 20 memberships), not including second and third generation members. PROGRAMMING This fall the enrollment numbers for youth programming include 370 minor hockey players (plus 18 others through cookie monsters, etc.) 125 youth in skating, 248 in tennis, 90 in badminton, 215 in swim lessons, 99 in swim team and 87 in karate, just to mention some of the activity hubs for youth. Key areas of activity for adults include 210 men and 60 women in hockey, 136 tennis players who are organized in group lessons, too many old guys like yours truly who wear Speedo jammers to swim laps and over 80 curlers (including 32 new curlers this year). Notably, the new fitness center currently accommodates 3,500 visitors per week who contribute to an annual fitness programming and personal training revenue account of $1,000,000. FOOD & BEVERAGE There are three areas that contribute to the Food & Beverage sales in the Club: gross sales for the Bar & Grill at $2.2 million, the Bistro at $775,000 and Catering which grossed $900,000 in sales. The Bistro sold 11,964 pizza slices, 9,446 vitamin waters and a banana bending 5,018 Arnold smoothies over the last 12 months. In the Bar & Grill for the last year, members consumed 6,742 grind salads, 5,280 clubhouse sandwiches, 17,000 kid’s meals, 42,000 lbs. of potatoes and 36,714 chicken wings for Wing Wednesday, all of which were washed down with 4,900 glasses of J. Lohr red, 5,200 glasses of Stoneleigh white (not including bottle and half litre sales) and 560 pints of beer per week - which equates to 1 leisure pool full of beer every 6 years. There you have it, Hollyburn at a glance where for the past 50 years at least 28 members can attest to the long term benefits of maintaining their fitness, being well fed & hydrated and staying clean and exceptionally groomed. 9 member of the month: Deb Collins intermediate month: Squash Night on october 12th, 2010 ESCAPE FROM ALCATRAZ sHANE AND DEBBIE COLLINS Dear Members, On October the 1st , our 50th anniversary party, “Under The Palms” was held in the gymnasium and what a night it was. The night was Vegas themed and really seemed to hit the mark with all that attended. Entertainer Nearly Neil, who looks like and sings like Neil Diamond was the entertainer and there were black jack, craps and roulette tables to keep everyone going throughout the night. The feedback we received from members was overwhelmingly positive and we will definitely be bringing this event back next year. It was a dress up, Black tie event, no kids and it was a big hit. Circle October 1st in your calendars next year and be sure to attend. Special thanks to Jenny Sanders, Alexandra Fischer and Kathryn Cowden for their hard work and creativity in setting up the evening. ED McLAUGHLIN CEO [email protected] WELCOME NEW MEMBERS Paul Mackenzie Brian Findlay Brent Bradshaw Ali Hakimzadeh One of managements goals this year is to reach out to the members and get as much feedback as possible on everything that is Hollyburn. We want feedback on programs, service, food and beverage, special events and pretty much everything you do at the club. We will be using a virtually free service called Survey Monkey that we will attach to all programs and services we provide. It is a cost efficient way to get the real honest feedback we need to provide you with the best possible service and programs. It is anonymous if you choose it to be so you can feel free to keep the compliments coming !! We appreciate positive and negative feedback and it really helps management and the Board of Directors set future direction. Thank you in advance for answering any surveys that come your way. Hollyburn is a great place to host holiday functions and we encourage you to get in touch with our catering department to set yours up. Custom parties from 10 to 250 people are possible and our catering department really does a great job in making sure that you are well looked after. The ever popular “ Dickens Lunches” are back again this year so don’t miss out. We have singing Carolers, an amazing holiday menu including delicious turkey and all the fixins. This really is a nice time to be at the club and we look forward to seeing you here. Once again, The Father Daughter Ball ( November 19th) is a complete sell out and will be the biggest and best ever. The ball, with close to 500 attendees sold out in less than an hour. It is the can’t miss function of the year and really sets the bar for all other club events. We can’t wait to see you there. Be sure to take a good look through this edition of the view. It is the program guide that outlines all upcoming programming and activities. All departments work hard to bring exciting initiatives your way and we continue to explore new ways of bringing you to the club. We are very pleased with overall club activity as members seem to be using the club a great deal. We want you here and we want you to receive very good value for your membership fees. If you see a program or service idea that you feel would work at Hollyburn please email it to me directly at [email protected]. We hope you had a healthy and safe Halloween. Ed 10 REGISTRATION OPENS WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 25 @ 12:00PM ONLINE FOR RACQUETS ONLY. THURSDAY, AUGUST 26 @ 12:00PM ONLINE FOR FITNESS AND AQUATICS ONLY. ONLINE, IN-PERSON & PHONE FOR GENERAL REGISTRATION OPENS FRIDAY, AUGUST 27 @ 9:00AM. There we all were. 525 plus, poor and deluded criminals who were about to be sent on a one way trip to Alcatraz Island, less than two miles off San Francisco. Among the motley group were two Canadians, both members of Hollyburn Country Club. They had been arrested and sentenced to do time on Alcatraz for allegedly being Canadians in possession of swim goggles! Debbie ”Doc” Collins and myself, Shane Collins, along with the rest of the “guilty” souls were herded on to the Hornblower Ferry and left pier three dock for a short and lonely one way ride to the infamous “Alcatraz Prison”. Then the vessel arrived and the guards weren’t paying close attention, the two of us, joined by the other “prisoners” decided to make a run for it and we all jumped off the boat and started swimming back to the Mainland. Of the 500 plus swimmers that made the escape attempt, more than 150 were dragged out of the frigid water [14.5 Celsius], suffering from exhaustion and hypothermia, but the rest made it to shore. We both had a terrific time being part in this historic race, with Debbie taking first place in her non wetsuit division. In fact, if you include the wetsuit swimmers [aka fish in chicken’s clothing], she would still have placed second. While these achievements are admirable in and of themselves, Debbie has had a far more serious challenge to overcome. Studying at The University of British Columbia, Debbie competed on the varsity swim team. However, three years into her studies [1982], she received a significant setback. She was coughing and wheezing and finally went to her physician. After several tests the diagnosis was lung cancer, and she had immediate surgery. The operation was successful, but half of one lung had to be removed. The doctor told her that the long term prognosis for her general health was reasonably positive, but that she would never be able to swim again! Debbie continued her studies, earning a medical degree and eventually specializing in the practice of sport medicine. Since that time, Debbie has competed in many arduous swimming challenges, including a record breaking double crossing of The Escape from Alcatraz [San Francisco -Alcatraz- San Francisco]. She was also Captain of a Canadian marathon swim team that completed a two way relay crossing [England-France-England] of The English Channel [the third fastest time in The Channel’s 130 year history]. She has circumnavigated Bowen Island [current record holder], the Island of Key West, completed three crossings of The Maui Channel and still holds the women’s record for the crossing of The Strait of Georgia [Vancouver Island to The Mainland]. Debbie has attempted the English Channel solo on 3 occasions but was unsuccessful. In 2007, we became the first Canadians to successfully swim from Spain to Africa, crossing The Strait of Gibraltar. I am very familiar with the courage and character that dwells within this special person. Debbie Collins is not only my dearest friend and training partner, she is also my wife. She has learned throughout some of life’s hardships that we alone are responsible for achieving our goals, in spite of the negative and discouraging obstacles that cross our path. We have adopted an excerpt from a poem written by The Swahili Warriors of East Africa as our family motto and while Debbie embodies it completely, I urge everyone to embrace the message. It reads; “ Life has meaning only in the struggle. Victory and defeat are in the hands of the Gods, so...let us celebrate the struggle!” The poem was written about 2000 years ago....some things never change. Shane Collins Footnote: Shane Collins is a Marathon swimmer and was the first athlete from BC to swim solo across The English Channel [1995]. 11 Grand Tasting Uncorked: WEDNESDSAY, nov. 24th 6pm • dining room Join us at this year’s annual stock your cellar grand tasting for Wine Seminar Lunch FRIDAY, nov. 26th 1pm • dining room Come enjoy a three course lunch with wine pairings from a variety of vineyards.

Sue Van Zyl Angel Coordinator Method: Yield: 8 Servings Cut butternut squash lengthwise and remove seeds. Preheat oven to 375° F. Brush insides and outsides of squash halves with vegetable oil, season with salt and pepper and place cut sides down, on cookie sheet or in roasting pan. Bake for 45-60 minutes or until squash is tender. Remove from oven to let cool until they’re easy to handle. Ingredients: While squash is cooling, in a large saucepan, melt butter and add finely diced onion. Cook until onion is softened. Remove from heat until squash is cooled enough handle. When squash is cooled, spoon out the softened squash into the saucepan with the butter and onion, discarding the squash skin. Add enough chicken stock to the saucepan to cover the squash by about an inch. Return to heat and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for about 20 minutes. Add maple syrup, salt, black pepper and a pinch of cinnamon. 1 large butternut squash 1 Tbsp. Vegetable oil 3/4 cup onion, very finely diced 1 Tbsp. butter 3 cups chicken stock 1 cup 35% cream Cinnamon, to taste 1/4 tsp. salt 1/4 tsp. black pepper 1/4 cup maple syrup If soup is lumpy at this point and you prefer it perfectly smooth, puree with an immersion blender or a bit at a time in a regular blender. (Note: You can freeze the soup at this point, prior to adding the cream or just refrigerate to serve later. Simply re-warm then add cream before serving. Thin with a bit more chicken stock, if needed). Now, add as much or as little of the cream as you like to the soup. Cook over low heat just until warmed through (do not boil). Serve and enjoy! (A dollop of creme fraiche or sour cream and/or a sprinkling of parsley or chives is nice with this soup) 17 AQUATICS McClean, Aquatic / Fitness Coordinator, with any concerns or comments that you may have.

Thursday Evenings Thursday Evening Mixed Curling Our first Thursday Mixed curling on September 30 was an informal mixer with each team playing several two end games. The teams were divided into two groups – red and yellow – and the red group was the big winner. This also gave our new curlers a chance to try the game where the results wouldn’t affect any standings in the league. Afterwards, we socialized over food and beverage in the dining room. It was great to reacquaint with friends and catch up on everyone’s summer. Susanne Berry came away richer as the winner of the 50/50 draw. For the fall session, there are nine teams, each week there will be a team with a bye. They can be called on for spares if required. Also, there will be a list posted on the notice board with people who are available to spare. Chuckle of the Day: Why oldies love bridge - it’s the only way they can get to four clubs in one night!

If the program is full, drop-ins may be allowed for each class, at the instructors’ discretion, and never at the expense of a registered participant. This is offered on a first come first served basis. A registered participant has 10 minutes from the start time of the class to claim their space. Drop-ins for all Pilates Programs are not encouraged because of the progressive nature of the exercises. MAKE UP CLASSES If you miss a class, you may be allowed to make it up under the following guidelines: within the same discipline (yoga for yoga etc.), Fitness Centre Management approval, and within the same session. If the make-up class you want to go to is full you are treated as a regular drop-in, therefore the first come first served rule applies.

This is accomplished by incorporating constantly varied, multiple compound physical tasks that mimic motor recruitment patterns performed in our everyday life. These motor recruitment tasks are termed Functional Movements… and are performed at high intensity. The CrossFit program is designed for universal scalability making it the perfect application for any committed individual regardless of experience and current fitness level. We’ve used our same routines for elderly individuals with heart disease and cage fighters. We scale load and intensity; we don’t change programs. Time: Mon/Wed 9:15AM Tue/Thurs 7:15PM Session 1: Jan 10 - Feb 4 (4 weeks) Session 2: Feb 7 - Mar 4 (4 weeks) Cost: $120/session unlimited classes Location: Studio 94 For more information, pictures and videos on CrossfitBC, please visit http://www.crossfitbc.com/ or call Akio Tyler at 604-913-4564.

Starting out as a dreary September day, the boys had to only endure the rain for the first few holes, for the sun to finally break out for them. Frustrations were raised when balls went into the rough and drives curved when they weren’t supposed to. The men kept their spirits up, along with a little help from Kevin and his Sleeman’s, and they stuck it out for the rest of the afternoon. In fine form, the foursome consisting of Robert Johnson, Greg Ledding, Ray Leeden & Garth Brady took home the victory with the lowest team gross score! This talented foursome was the last to tee-off. Maybe the time spent out of the rain gave them an edge to victory, or could it possibly have been the fantastic play of Mr. Greg Ledding. Greg not only lead his team to the lowest team par score, but also managed to win both the longest drive (LD) on hole #18, and lowest individual gross score for the second year in a row! Much to the dismay of many of the other men (Mike Clark)! Our own golf club member Craig ‘One Put’ McDowall took home the low net score this year, and Steve Granger winning the closest to the pin (KP) award, some may say by default. Maybe next year more of you will remember to put your names down on the KP sheet! Also, a big congratulations to Don Chan who was a great sport and won the highest par score award, hope to see you out more often next year Don! The club yet again had a very successful season over the summer, playing at a variety of courses throughout the lower mainland. With great courses, great attitudes and great games the enjoyment of the club flourished. A game every Thursday throughout the season often lead to a rewarding pitcher back at the Bar & Grill. The Hollyburn Men’s Golf Club is a great way to meet new members, better your golf game and simply have fun! Each week we set up tee time reservations for the group on a specified day, all you have to do is show up! Season runs May through September, with 1 getaway golf vacation and the final Tournament and Banquet. If you are an aspiring golfer, experienced, or new to the game, this club is for you!

The supraspinatus tendon is particularly vulnerable. This condition is commonly referred to as ‘swimmer’s shoulder • The rotator cuff muscles provide the primary means of stability for the shoulder joint. • They are small muscles that are frequently overlooked in exercise conditioning programmes, where the emphasis tends to be focussed on the big power muscles, such as the pectoralis, latissimus dorsi and trapezius muscles. JOHN RYAN SWIM MASTERS HEAD COACH [email protected] • Being inadequately conditioned the rotator cuff muscles are susceptible to overload, for example through excessive/ incorrect use of hand paddles. MASTERS 18 yrs+ Our challenging workouts will satisfy any level of serious swimmer. Set your exercise objectives and strive for your personal best in this team setting.

Masters and Shoulders Some Masters will be swimming through the love of this great sport their entire lifetime. Shoulders bear the brunt of all this swimming. As people age, their bodies and shoulders will inflame more easily. A swimming stroke that produced speed and no pain at an earlier age might cause trouble later. The stroke might need to be continually modified for the body to accommodate aging and prevent injury. Consider swimming with a variety of stroke options so the pressure on the shoulder is not focused continually at particular points. It may not be possible to copy the “state of the art” stroke without causing inflammation trouble. It is difficult to give general principles but consider these: a. Enter hands gently and catch well into the stroke. b. Recover over the water in a gentle manner. Use body roll to achieve high elbows. c. Tuck chin comfortably rather than looking ahead tortoise style. d. Use deep abdominal muscles to help harness the core and support the body rather than just the back muscles alone. e. Rotate body with hips, shoulders and ankles roughly in the same plane. f. Full power is only applied for a zone of the stroke and eased at the extremities. g. Develop a smooth flowing stroke rather than stop start. John Ryan Head Coach Hollyburn Masters [email protected] WINTER REGISTRATION OPENS WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 24 @ 12:00PM ONLINE FOR RACQUETS ONLY.

This results in a reduced supply of nutrients to the tissues for growth and repair. This leads to a decrement in condition with advancing age, thus increasing risk of damage. Rotator Cuff Exercises Internal Rotation (closing the door) 1. Stand with arm hanging relaxed by side. 2. Keeping elbow by side, bend elbow to 90 degree angle with hand in front (not to the side) 3. Keeping elbow by side, wrap forearm across body, forearm parallel to the floor. External Rotation (opening the door) 1. Stand with arm hanging relaxed by side. 2. Keeping elbow by side, bend elbow to 90 degree angle with hand in front (not to the side) 3. Keeping elbow by side, take forearm out to the side, forearm parallel to the floor.

As I stated in our Private Lessons Policy, I am expecting that you practice every day but as a mother I know how that can be unrealistic; practicing is a self-discipline that we have to teach our children. When my students reach Grade 4 at school I’m ready for the battle! They complain about homework, they are tired, sometimes they tell me that they are playing piano only because of their parents. At that moment I’m not offended at all. I think how thankful I’m to those parents. I’m thankful that my parents didn’t let me quit. It is a bumpy road for everybody, but by age 10 they are playing • Plant both feet securely on the ground before getting out of the car At Music Department we offer: Drums lessons, Saturdays at Studio 3 with Goran Mars. Practice, practice, practice Tips for Reducing the Risk of Falling: piano mostly because they really want to. By that time, they already know to read notes in treble and bass clefs, they know that ‘crescendo’ means gradually louder and they can reach the pedal! Of course, practicing is still a challenge, but we can help. I find that in our busy lives finding regular time for practicing piano is very difficult. Our kids have many interests after school, homework and of course they have to socialize and have some time for themselves. That leaves a morning as a very good time; practicing will definitely wake them up! Thinking about notes, rhythm and dynamic signs will put their brains on a right course for a day and a math test won’t be that hard after all! Many of my students tried and it works!

THOMAS ROUNDHILL BScPT, MCPA, CGIMS REGISTERED PHYSICAL THERAPIST MITCHELL DAVIS BHSC (PT), BSc, Kin, FCAMT, AFCI REGISTERED PHYSICAL THERAPIST • Use aids for walking, balancing, hearing and seeing if needed; view them as enabling you to do things rather than a sign of weakness • In winter, sprinkle kitty litter, salt, or sand on slippery ground at home or when getting out of the car to gain traction on a slippery surface. • Have a spiked tip for your cane in icy conditions • Sit rather than stand while dressing Preventing Falls in Seniors by Mitchell Davis, Registered Physiotherapist More than one third of Canadians age 65 and older fall each year. It’s estimated that 50% of those who fall will suffer moderate to severe injuries (sprains, fractures, head trauma) that permanently reduce their mobility and independence. Direct health care costs relating to falls are estimated at $1 billion every year. These falls account for 84% of injury related admissions to hospitals, 40 percent of all admissions to nursing homes, and a 10% increase in home-care services. Research shows that modifying the home and reducing fall hazards in the community can reduce the risk of falls by half. Impaired vision , mental functioning, and medications are also risk factors. Many seniors will stay home for fear of falling and in doing so lose the physical benefits of normal activity which further compromises their balance and muscle strength and increases their risk for falls. • After sitting up from bed or preparing to get up from a chair, pause 10 seconds before rising to avoid dizziness • Install handrails and grab-bars in the bathrooms and stairways and ensure good lighting (and night-lites) around the home • Concentrate on what you’re doing while doing it and move at a comfortable speed; don’t rush • Keep flashlights near the bed and in the kitchen and sitting area for when the power goes out • Be careful with objects that are higher up – extending the neck back can bring on dizziness and falls. Keep objects on the lower shelves and use a ladder or step stool if you need to getting up higher • Ensure your medications aren’t causing any dizziness and don’t mix them with alcohol • Be mindful of pets getting underfoot or getting your feet tangled in their leashes or the pet pulling on you with the leash • Remove reading glasses when walking • Don’t leave clutter around the house Specific exercises, activities and interventions prescribed by a physiotherapist are helpful in dramatically reducing the risk of falling in older adults. A targeted physiotherapy treatment program can help maintain or regain strength, flexibility and endurance in a way that still feels safe and secure. • Try to be physically active daily to improve posture, muscle strength and balance. A tai chi or balance class can be helpful. You can book a physiotherapy consultation with Mitchell Davis, or Thomas Roundhill by calling 604-913-4563. 53 SENIORS Very few groups within the Hollyburn Family can boast a longevity of 43 years of association and operation. Aquafit started in September 1967 when pool manager Mike Allan thought some of the moms at HCC would like (and could use) some stroke correction. Thus began the original “Swimnastics”. We meet 3 mornings per week and have many outside activities as well. The hiking group have done many trips to Vancouver Island, Washington State, BC. Interior, Whistler and also a holiday to Mexico. We have also formed an investment education and participation group called Aquaventures. We divided the profits several years ago, but continue to meet for an annual dinner. The Senior’s Autumn Equinox Mingler on September 18, 2010 was a huge success! Seniors enjoyed live music, Equinox cocktails, delicious hors d’oeuvres, scrumptious desserts and of course: great company! People mixed and mingled into the evening! I huge thanks to the Senior’s Committee and Jeri Rae for their hard work and organization! The next Mingler will be in April 2011.

We have a very excellent representative to the Aquatic Committee in Nancy Macdonald. We thank her for her being our voice for the past several years. Some members, although no longer active in the pool do participate in our annual cookie exchange, Holiday luncheon, monthly birthday breakfasts and of course our all important coffee after our work-outs. Over the years, many varied and talented instructors have graced the pool deck and have been challenged by our verbal exercise. We have done skits depicting our leaders. Great fun is always happening with this group. Learning how the Canada Line works was one recent activity. This fall we look forward to visiting the new Britannia Mine Museum and other interesting venues. AQUA FIT Our water workouts are fun and offer a challenge to anyone attending.

Being a part of this brand new community is exhilarating and interesting on a continual basis. I believe it’s a place that will grow to mature with the Salt Building and Creekside Community Centre acting as anchors. When London Drugs and Urban Fare complete, we will see a blossoming much like Yaletown in its infancy. I bought here to live and God willing, I’ll be here fifteen years from now and expect to pass this home on to my son.” SOMETHING IS CHANGING AT Larry Campbell, Former Mayor of Vancouver & Millennium Water Resident MILLENNIUM WATER GET ON THE LIST FOR NOVEMBER 2010 “We absolutely love it here – our view, the community and most of all our new Eggersmann chef’s kitchen.” “I used to commute to my job – now I have two more hours every day for me.” Annie Moore Millennium Water Resident Susan Ewanick Millennium Water Resident “I have travelled the world and this place is an icon of sustainable living.” Roger Bayley Millennium Water LEED Sustainability Consultant www.SomethingIsChangingAtMillenniumWater.com CALL 604.733.2010 SALES CENTRE 1693 MANITOBA ST.
