President`s Corner
B R ITT ANY ~~-, BIT S -- ~€lub~ P. O. BOX 9744 ATLANTA, GA. 30319 84/1 February President's Corner The 1984 Board of Directors is pleased to announce that there will be no increase in dues this year. The present fee of $280.00 is quite a bargain when you compare our fine pool and tennis facilities with others in North Atlanta. We have an excellent Swim Team program for the kids and very competitive ALTA tennis teams for all levels of play. In addition, the three holiday parties (Memorial Day, July 4th and Labor Day) along with the Sunday Family Nights are features most of the other neighborhood clubs do not have. The single most important element that keeps the Brittany Club running strong is membership participation. However, at this time, we have approximately 10 openings for Membership which need to be filled as soon as possible to enable the club to fulfill all improvements planned in this year's budget. Please encourage your neighbors who are not members to apply for membership. Enclosed is an application form. Contact a Board Member for assistance. This year's Board of Directors are as follows: President Vice President Secretary Treasurer Communications BUildings/Grounds Social Chairman Membership Tennis Pool GIL HUDNALL ERNIE VALERA LESLIE KRIVO JIM BEDELL STEVE McLAUGHLIN VINCE GIOVINAZZO ANN EPPS TERRY MULLANE J 1M STIRLING DEBBIE WRIGHT The 1984 Board wishes to thank the former Board Members whose terms ended in Decem ber: Lynn Bush, Bob Cavanaugh, John Ernst, Larry Mattix, and Doris Miller. Job WELL DONE II If everyone continues to participate and help out when called upon, this year should be more enjoyable than ever. I look forward to meeting and seeing everyone at the club. GIL HUDNALL Page 2 Membership Since the last Brittany Bits we have had resignations from Bill McElhannon, Walt Basco, and Roger Bauer. A hearty welcome to new members Joel and Al Culley who reside at 3302 Finistere Court. Joel is with the City of Atlanta. A reminder to all members to solicit new members within the Club area of Oglethorpe Estates, Brittany, Cambridge Park, Hampton Hall, Sunderland, DuBerry Court and Wood Valley Court. Call Terry Mullane (237-0469) for further information or assistance. Tennis ALTA Tennis: Brittany has four entries in ALTA mixed doubles this winter. These teams are competing at the A-l, A-5, B-3 and C-l levels. The regular season sched ule continues on Sunday afternoons through March 4. The rosters for men's and women's Spring ALTA are due February 14. There will be four men's teams playing Saturday mornings beginning March 24th and four women's teams playing Thursday mornings beginning March 22nd. In addition, efforts are being made to start a C-level entry in the Business Women's League, with play set for Sunday afternoons. Call Cheryl Barlow if you are interested. Junior boys and junior girls ALTA teams are being managed by Judy Thompson and Dona King, respectively. The girls' matches begin Tuesday, March 20th, and the boys start the next day. Players may be added to teams as late as two weeks after play begins. If you are not on a roster but would like to play, contact the appropriate captain or anyone on the Tennis Committee. 1984 Eyents: The Tennis Committee for 1984 includes Jim Stirling (Chairman), Mary Cartwright (Women's Coordinator), Stan Krivo, Rita McDonald, Len O'Neill and Lynn Bush. We expect to conduct mixed doubles tournaments on Memorial Day and Labor Day weekends, and doubles tournaments on July 4th~ as well as other adult and junior events throughout the year. If you have an idea for an event you would like to see added to the agenda, please contact one of the committee members. B R ITT ANY BIT S 84/2 April President's Corner The pool is being prepared for opening, the bathrooms are under renovation, tennis is in full swing and the Memorial Day Party promises to be a great social event. We need a big turnout for workday on April 28, 1984. All of us have baseball games, tennis matches, yard work and other distrac ions on work day, but you owe it 0 the club to come down for an hour or two and participate in getting your club ready for the summer. We are still short on membership. Talk to your non-member neighbors to see if we can fill our vacancies. Our bUdget is based on fixed cost obligations, and if we don't have 220 members, the dues will probably have to be increased to cover our overhead. If anyone has any suggestions for improving the operation of the various aspects of the club, except for impeachment of the President, please call and discuss them with me. We encourage membership participation in all areas of operation. See you at the pool. GIL HUDNALL Membership Since the last Brittany Bits we have had Gunhouse, and Guy Patton. resignations from E. M. Hart, Peter A hearty welcome to new members John and Fredrica Thames, residing at 3159 Saybrook Dr., and their daughter Ginger. John is with the City of Atlanta.

A reminder to all members to solicit new members within the club area of Oglethorpe Estates, Brittany, Cambridge Park, Hampton Hall, Sunderland, DuBerry Court and Wood Valley Court. Recent resignations from the club have resulted in several vacancies. A membership application is enclosed. If you know any families who may be interest ed in joining, extend an invitation and application. Call Terry Mullane (237-0469) for further information or assistance. Page 2 Social Social chairman, Ann Epps, reports that Vince Giovi nazzo and committee have plans well underway for the upcoming Memorial Day Party on Saturday, May 26th. Mark your calendar now and plan to attend. S.'nn1ng Pool With Mother Nature's cooperation, the pool will be open on weekends for all Brittany members starting May 5. The swim team will begin practice May 7 from 4-6 p.m. every weekday through May. Our guards for the year will be SuSu as manager and Holly, Dana and Kathy as guards. Holly will be swim coach with Dana as her assistant. Kathy will be back as diving coach. There will be a workday April 28 (rain date April 29). We need everybody. Chairs need to be pulled out and cleaned, deck washed and swept, pool cover removed and cleaned and pool cleaned -- a complete spring cleaning around the grounds. Please bring brooms, rakes or just yourself anytime that day and help get everything in tip-top Brittany shape. Refreshments will be provided. Enclosed in th Bits is a copy of pool rules. Please read carefully, with special attention to #5 and #6, as these will be strictly enforced by our guards for the safety of all children. There have been several complaints regarding the use of radios at the pool. Please be courteous and keep radios turned down so as not to disturb those around you who may not wish to hear your music. Swim and Diving Team Swim and diving practice will begin May 7 from 4 - 5 p.m. for ages 10 and under and 5 - 6 p.m. for ages over 10. Swim suits will be on sale at Brittany on Tuesday, May 8. There will be a brief but important meeting Monday, May 7, at 5 p.m. Please, all swimmers and parents, try to attend because there will be some changes announced and details of upcoming events, parties and plans for the '84 season will be dis cussed. If you are interested in the Dynamo Stroke Clinic to be offered in May, please contact me for information concerning dates, times and fees. It is an excellent course to help you get in shape for our summer league. We will be recycling aluminum cans as a fund raiser for the swim team this year so start saving them now. Bring what you have saved to our meeting on the 7th. The more cans we collect, the more fun we can have this summer. For those parents who volunteer to be certified as judges, the diving coaches clinic will be sometime in May. I will have all the information on the date by the 15th of April. Please call me if you are interested. We need at least three judges. Page 3 I am looking forward to having all our swimmers back as well as all newcomers to make this not only a successful year but a summer full of fun. GO BARRACUDAS I Debbie Wright (252-9748) Tennis ALTA: Two of Brittany's four winter mixed doubles teams made it to the playoffs before being eliminated. The A-I team captained by Bill Smith finished second in its division to earn a playoff spot, while Harry De Meza's B-3 team finished on top of its division with a 32-3 record. Congratulations to all involved for the fine showingl We have 9 teams in Spring ALTA play -- 3 men's, 4 women's and 2 junior's. Regular season play in each will continue through the first week in May. It's not too early to think about the summer schedule. If you are new to the club or have not other wise been on a roster recently, fee 1 free to contact any of the tenn i s committee members or team captains. Club Notes: We're planning a mixed doubles tournament in connection with the Memorial Day weekend festivities (May 26-28). We're considering several formats with a goal of fostering good competition and socializing. Watch the board for details and a sign-up sheet in mid-May. We continue to have isolated incidents of vandalism or mischief with respect to our courts and equipment. The absence of a bench at Court 4 is a recent example of the problem. Replacement or repair of affected items is a needless waste of members' time and money. Please consider the preservation of all our tennis facilities to be a collective responsibility, and take appropriate action where you see abuse of any kind. Jim Stirling BUildings/Grounds Renovation of the Club bathrooms will take place over the next month. During this time, the ALTA teams will need to make other arrangements since the bathrooms will be unavailable for use. We regret the inconvenience, but the improvements should make it all worthwhile. WORKDAY IS COMING Workday is scheduled for Saturday, April 28, starting at 9 a.m. (rain day is Sunday, April 29). We urge everybody to come down and pitch in. Even a small amount of time can really help. Free beer and soft drinks will be provided. Page 4 Bfts of Brfttany Not enough of us realize we have a real hero in our midst. Hurne Cole, a new member, took to our Silver Lake like a duck takes to water. While feeding our mallards their daily bread, he noticed one of the ducks cou d not fly because of fishing line wrapped around one of her legs. After several weeks of trying, he finally caught her, had a veterinarian remove the line, and the mallard lives happily ever after. What a great story and grand fellowl Thanks, Hume, for your efforts. Al Bloch does live onl Did you know, too, that we have more champions in our midst? Kim Mosel~ and Chuck McCuen coach the Women's and Men's Tennis Teams at Georgia State. Now how often does that happen? Cynthia Morrison and Mary Bush showed thei r expertise at the recent County meet by capturing 2nd and 9th in diving. Congratulate Casey Hoerner for her 3rd place achievement in freestyle and Patricia Powell for winning the individual medley and 2nd place in the SOD freestyle. She must be following in brother Mike's steps whose swim team just won the North Junior College Championship. Seems those early morning practices at the Brittany pool do payoff! Found: Husky or Alaskan Malamute puppy without tag. Gray with black and tan mark ings. Found fi rst of April. If anyone knows anyth ing about who th 15 dog belongs to, please call Ann Stewart at 237-5449.

On Sunday night, June 17, 1984, Father's Day, we are having a cookout at the club. We encourage you to bring prospective member famil ies with you to the cookout to take a look at our club and the fun we have. We still have vacancies in our member ship roster and need a few more members. Those families eligible for membership are those residing in Oglethorpe Estates, Brittany, Cambridge Park, Hampton Hall, Sunderland, DuBerry Court and Wood Valley Court. If you know of any families in these neighborhoods who might be interested in joining, invite them to the cookout and sell them on our club. For further information and appl ications, call Terry Mullane (237-0469) • We have been having trouble with dogs wandering around the club facilities unattended. These dogs are becoming a real nuisance due to their odorous residue, fighting and the danger to small chilrlren. We have had numerous complaints from members. Please keep your dogs at home or, at the very least, on a leash while around the club facilities. We do not want to ask the county to impound one of your family pets. .M1.~ellaneous.

Special thanks are in order to Larry Mattix, Hutch Hutchinson and Terry Mullane for the new bench on court 4 and those outside courts 1, 4 and 6. This involved many hours of hard work, and their efforts are greatly appreciated. AL~: Summer play for ALTA mixed doubles begins June 16. Brittany will again field four teams -- two A's, one B and one C. This should cover virtually any skill level; so if you'd like to play and aren't already 011 a roster, see any member of the Tennis Committee or team captains. All matches are on Saturday mornings. The last two seasons of men's ALTA at the C level have shown that we have a numbers problem. There were too few players for the two teams entered in the fall of 1983, and there was an overabundance of players for the consolidated team which competed in the spring of this year. Bill Roberts is working on a solution and has prepared the enclosed survey as a means of ascertaining the desires of those affected. If you are a past or prospective player at th{s level, please take the time to complete the form and return it to Bill at your earliest convenience. Congratulations to Brittany's Boys 14 and under AL~ team who won the City Champion ship May 19thl Playing superbly al~ season were: Richard Bush, Jody Culley, Ken Doss, Walter Gourgues, Randy Harkins, Kris Hutchinson, Mi e McMahon, and Chris Mi llen.

As those of you who played this Spring know, our C2 doubles was blessed with either too many players or too few, depending on your point of view and how much you wanted to play. Based on the returns from the survey, we will either continue with one doubles team; one doubles and one singles/doubles team; or two singles/doubles teams. Regardless, Captain Bill is not going to try to schedule and play 24 players this Falll .--==_=.._"'__-'- ~~-:~:~-~::_::-:-_.C-._-:__ -__ -.- - -_.--.. :_:.:~::--. --_::..::-.-_.._---------. __ __:.. -:::::.:.-::::::~--_ ..__ .: :- __._---....--. . - ===---=--~---::-: NAME: INTEREST: AMOUNT PLAY DESIRED: WILLING TO HELP AS CAPT.
