Fat Tuesday
AROUND
The Event Just Got
Bigger – and Better!
We’re kicking off the month with
one of our favorite celebrations
and my how it has grown! Fat
Tuesday this year has a whole
new element added and you
won’t want to miss out on the fun
either as a participant or spectator! Join us on Tuesday, March
4 in the Business Center parking
lot at 5:30 p.m. where you will be
joined by the Bonefish Bonnies,
the Racquet Club, the Members
Fitness Center team and even a
Krewe from the Dog Park, among
others, who will make the Parade
route down to the Fishing Village.
The Chapel Choir will sing
“When the Saints Go Marching
In” so whether you want to bring
your cart or just stand and cheer
them on, it’s sure to be a sight
worth seeing! There will also be
a special tribute to our Veterans
who will join in the Walking Procession led by King & Queen Sam
and Edwina Friedman. Once at
the Fishing Village the party will
begin where we will celebrate in
true New Orleans style with great
food, music and company, and
the “Sauce Boss”. The Fat Tuesday
celebration continues in the Fishing Village until 9:00 p.m. where
you can enjoy Chef Damian’s
Cajun fare, New Orleans style
drinks and all your favorite Street
Fair fun. If you would like more
information on how to participate
in the Procession, or if you are a
Veteran that would like to join
in, please call Member Events at
305-367-6526.
After you have recovered from
all the Mardi Gras-style excitement, there is plenty more on
the March calendar, including a
Mardi Gras cooking class featuring recipes from around the world
on Wednesday, March 5.

One Tournament
Left for ORC Sailfish
Championship
While the sunny skies and balmy
breezes have made just about
everything on The Reef delightful,
those vying for the ORC Sailfish
Championship have been a bit
“cold” to the temperatures. January’s
Reef Cup saw a total of 138 releases,
up from 2013, but nowhere near
the numbers from past years. With
sixteen boats in the fleet, the participant number was the highest in the
Sailfish Classic’s history but with just
50 releases, no other records were
set.
The Menten family aboard their
boat PISCES V would take first
place with eight releases. Recent
team accolades include Top Junior
Angler honors for 14-year old Dylan

Marina Fuel
Recently installed fuel pumps for
both Diesel and Ethanol Free Gas
make the convenience of fueling
with your Club even better. Not
only do they pump at a much
higher rate in addition, as an
Equity Member or Social Member that is staying with the Club,
they now automatically calculate
in your discount.
There is also a new Competitive Model for determining the
fuel pricing. If you have been
fueling your boat at the Marina
this change will be a pleasant
surprise, but if you have not
traditionally looked to the Club
for your marine fuel there are
now more reasons than ever.
Each week the Dock office posts
the current fuel prices for nearby marinas. You will be able
to immediately see the value
available in purchasing from your
Club Marina. Looking for larger
volume? Further price reductions are available for over 1,000
gallons and a quick call to the
Dockmaster will put us to work
in providing significant value.
Our 2010 census tells us that
there are over 1400 boats here at
Ocean Reef. Now these members
can enjoy the convenience and
value in filling with high quality
fuel at a very competitive price.

Safeguarding
Our Community
Cheers! Without Tears
by Ken Dewey
ORCA Vice Chairman
“A Unique Way of Life”… “a refuge
from the clamor and demands of
the world beyond our boundaries”…”the reassurance of world-class
security and public safety”…”a place
where privacy is paramount, security
is assured, and family comes first”.
This is our magical world, created
by the exceptional talents of the
Club and safeguarded by ORCA
and Public Safety. In experiencing
the magic, however, it is easy to
overlook the fact that the laws of
nature, common sense and the State
of Florida still apply. Nowhere more
seriously than when operating a
vehicle while under the influence of
alcohol or drugs. Yes, these things
apply even on our privately-owned
streets and paths, as well as to automobiles, carts and motor scooters.
Protocols are in Place
We all know that enjoying cocktails
or wine with a meal, experiencing
the Reef Lounge, Burgee Bar or
other gathering spots can involve
alcohol consumption that impairs
our ability to operate an automobile, golf cart or motor scooter.
And who hasn’t seen films showing the consequences of driving
under the influence? Even at our
25 MPH speed limit, serious risks
exist. Just last weekend, an early
morning incident involved a driver
who caused a minor accident, fled
the scene and lost control of his
Donation Drive
and Car Seat
Inspections
Reminder you can donate your
unused children items (clothing,
blankets, books, stuffed animals)
to the Florida Keys Healthy Start
Coalition on March 4 from 1 –
4 p.m., in the Cultural Center
parking lot. The Healthy Start
automobile, damaging it extensively,
destroying landscaping along Marlin
Lane in the process. Fortunately,
airbag deployment prevented the
driver from being injured, and he
narrowly avoided colliding with a
golf cart carrying four people. Public
Safety responded to check the
driver for injuries; per protocol, the
Sheriff’s Department investigated
for evidence of DUI. The outcome
of which is not the message, it is the
fact that this could have been easily
avoided.

Safe Transport Options
Part of our magic is recognizing that
an atmosphere of celebration exists
here, and providing means for individuals to continue the fun without
endangering themselves or others
when the party is over. Have you
seen the Public Safety officer stationed in the Fishing Village on busy
nights? Part of his job is to encourage anyone unable to drive safely
to be transported home (along with
their vehicle) either by the bell stand
or Public Safety. What other community provides this kind of service?
And this is available to everyone on
the Reef, no matter where or when
the situation arises. It’s as simple as
calling Public Safety, who will gladly
assist you. They far prefer this to
transporting someone off the Reef
via ambulance or helicopter.
In the end, preserving our Unique
Way of Life depends on all of us, not
only those we have hired to assist
us. We encourage you to share this
message with visiting friends and
family and to set a good example
by using the resources available
to safeguard yourself and all those
around you.
Coalition, an organization based
in Monroe County, provides
resources to improve the health
and well-being of early families.
Specifically, the items collected
will be donated to families with
children from birth to age five.
In addition, safety technicians
will be available to check your
car seats to ensure they are properly installed. Parents or grandparents should bring children
with them or know their exact
height, weight and age to have
your car seat inspected for safety.
Get ready for a concert experience like no other as Frankie Moreno
delivers a classic performance experience with modern content. Moreno
and his 10-piece band rock out to original hits and classic covers, as
Moreno showcases his debonair style on stage and his gifted musical
talents. He has been hailed as the best all-around performer by the Las
Vegas Review’s Best of Las Vegas 2012 and has toured with Air Supply
and Sugarland. If one incredibly gifted musician wasn’t enough, Frankie
Moreno has gathered a super band of dedicated musicians and they all
come together in one performance that will knock your socks off.

MEET ANDY HOFMANN
Our real estate agents embody the core of the Ocean Reef Promise through their daily commitment to Member
Satisfaction. Andy Hofmann, a Florida native with 20 years of exceptional success building relationships in
premier real estate and finance companies, joined Ocean Reef Club Real Estate Company (ORCREC) late last
year. In his relatively short time here, he has already demonstrated the importance of having our own memberfocused real estate organization. Member Mike Berman had a dear friend who had sold her New Orleans home
and was moving to Ocean Reef Club. Working through another property management company, the woman
had found a rental property. However, just days before her arrival, the contract was cancelled—the owners had decided not to rent
their unit—and she was devastated. Mike Berman called ORCREC, explained the situation to Andy Hofmann, and within an hour,
he had managed to find a Pumpkin Cay three-bedroom with an ocean view that was perfect for Mike’s friend. The residence was
previously only available for sale but in working with fellow team member Mary Lee, together they were able to come up with a
rental option that was ideal for both home owner and tenant. “Andy not only worked some magic, he went above and beyond to
make my friend feel comfortable, welcomed and worry free,” said Mike. “We are very fortunate to have our own real estate company
that applies the same exceptional standards and services that we are accustomed to as members. Many people and departments
came together to make this wonderful lady’s experience a memorable one.”

The
Membership
Speaks Out
The Medical Center’s 2013
survey disclosed that 96% of the
respondents indicated that the
Medical Center was a valuable
asset to the Community. Would You or Could You Live Here
Without It?
Given The Reef’s isolated location it would be pretty tough to
go to Miami or Tavernier every
time you had a medical problem.
Thirty percent of members
surveyed said they “would not
live at the Reef if the Medical
Center was not present” and
79% of members also indicat-
ed that the Medical Center is a
place of primary care while at the
Reef.
What do Members say?
“Without the Medical Center we
couldn’t make our permanent home
at Ocean Reef. We remember when
members our age left in order to be near
a good medical facility. No longer! We
have the best of care at our doorstep.
When our extended family comes to visit
we know that their needs will be looked
after too. It’s the best of all worlds, a
perfect place to live and a perfect place to
take care of our medical needs”.
– Duke and Betty Marx
The Top Five
The survey revealed that members ranked key services as
follows:
1. 24/7 access and after hours
coverage
2. Laboratory
3. On-site visiting specialist program
4. Imaging
5. Primary care
Fact: Since 2007, 70% of the
Ocean Reef Community has
utilized the Medical Center.
Fact: Annually there are more
than 15,000 patient service
encounters.
Fact: Only 43% of members
are aware that the Medical Center receives no financial support
through ORCA or ORC dues.
Fact: Just one-third of Ocean
Reef members support the Medical Center.
Your support is needed.
Quality 24/7 medical care is an
expensive proposition. Medicare
and other insurances continue
to reduce provider reimbursements while the associated cost
of providing medical care rises.
Your donations are critical in
providing on-site medical care
and you can help by supporting
the Ocean Reef Medical Center
Foundation.

In recognition of Heart Month, Jonathan Fialkow,M.D.,
medical director of clinical cardiology at Baptist Cardiac &
Vascular Institute, together with Rene Fernandez,M.D.,
medical director of the Medical Center at Ocean Reef,
discuss the latest findings on cardiovascular health.
They include people diagnosed with heart disease
and diabetes, as well as those with high levels of
LDL cholesterol. For all others, a new risk calculator
has been developed which you can discuss further
with your physician.
Preventing heart disease and stroke is a primary goal of the
nation’s leading cardiovascular experts. Based on new and
ongoing research, they have updated prevention guidelines.
“We’re targeting the people who are at much higher risk for
heart disease or stroke at an earlier point in their lives,”
Dr. Fialkow explains. “Earlier treatment improves the
chances of avoiding problems.”
Q. What are the recommendations for
Q. What are the facts about heart disease and stroke?
A. About 610,000 Americans have a first stroke every year.
Another 525,000 have a first heart attack. But risks can be
lowered through lifestyle changes and, in some cases,
medications such as statins.
combating obesity?
A . Obesity should be treated like a disease, and
doctors should steer their patients toward lifestyle
changes that include a healthy diet and
regular exercise.
“Good dietary habits are absolutely essential,” says
Dr. Fernandez. “A good goal is to have a majority of
your daily calories come from vegetables, greens, beans,
fruits, whole grains, nuts and seeds, and reduce the
amount of processed meats and foods you consume.”
A Healthy
Conversation.
Dr.Fialkow talks with Rene Fernandez, M.D.,
of the Medical Center at Ocean Reef.
Q. What are the main risk factors?
A. The new guidelines for preventing heart disease and
stroke now include treating obesity as a disease and
providing other resources to treat risk factors such
as diabetes and high blood pressure.
The four areas of focus:
Cholesterol levels
Lifestyle (diet and exercise)
Obesity
Individual risk assessment
Q. Who is more likely to receive statin therapy?
A. The new guidelines group adults into the four categories

Both doctors agree the best strategy to lose weight
and keep it off requires a three-pronged approach:
Eat fewer calories than your body burns with a
diet rich in natural foods, such as fresh fruits and
vegetables and whole grains; and avoid refined
and processed foods. Exercise more, and change
unhealthy behaviors, including quitting smoking
and limiting alcohol consumption.
Your doctor or cardiologist can help you determine
your risk with an individualized assessment. Every
person with risk factors is unique and may require
different treatments based on lifestyle, family
history and testing results.

Mardi Gras
Spirits
“From the
Pantry”
by Carole
Kotkin,
Cooking
School
Manager
Mardi Gras, which in French
translates to Fat Tuesday, is
officially the day before Ash
Wednesday. Known as Carnival,
Carnaval, Carnevale, Fat Tuesday, Shrove Tuesday, or Pancake
Day, Mardi Gras is celebrated
many different ways around the
globe, but eating well is a common theme. Celebrate Mardi
Gras Around the World with The
Islander’s Chef de Cuisine Betania
Salles and The Clubhouse’s Chef
de Cuisine Dominic Gorton,
on Tuesday, March 4 at a Vine
to Table Dinner accompanied
by wines from Archery Summit
Winery; and on Wednesday,
March 5 in the Cooking School.
Chef Betania will bring recipes
from her native Brazil and Chef
Dominic will present recipes
learned on a recent visit to Italy.
Introduce the spirit of Mardi
Gras into your home this year
with festive drink ideas. Have a
variety of ingredients on hand
to make traditional Mardi Gras
cocktails such as Hurricanes,
Ramos Gin-Fizz, or a classic
Sazerac. Chicory coffee or nonalcoholic punches made with fruit
juices and ginger ale are a great
option for those who don’t wish
to imbibe.

“Art League
Canvas”
by Gertrude
Mann
Kumihimo
Canvas is in awe of our artists who
take on a new challenge and end
up producing beautiful jewelry. The
finished piece emerges from clever
hands and creative energy. Linda
Richman, instructor, learned the
process of Kumihimo at a workshop
in Tampa in 2007. She says, “I was
into making dolls and looked for
beads to add to my creations. This
ancient Japanese art of braiding
beads interested me. I’ve been teaching it ever since.” Students work with
a wooden stand called a Marudai
that helps to string the beads.
Linda brought samples of completed
pieces, and each student chose her
own project. The
workshop was a
beehive of laughter, industry, and
the excitement of
learning and using
a new skill. The last
Kumihimo workshop this season
is for experienced
braiders who want
to explore more
options. The dates
are April 10, 11, 12. Left to Right: Sherri Harris, Denise Ecuyer, Bob Ecuyer, Pete Swenson, Jay Tunney and Nancy Eaves

Neil Alexander Finn
Neil Alexander Finn passed away
on January 11, 2014. He was 99.
His wife, Celia Finn; two sons,
Ronald N. Finn and his wife
Joan; Allen Finn and his wife Janet; four grandchildren and seven
great grandchildren survive him.
Neil was born in Russia and
immigrated to the USA with his
parents in 1920. He was president and CEO of Finn Machinery Company, the second largest
independent construction and
earth-moving equipment distributor in the Southeast during the
period of the mid 50’s until 1972.
He later came out of retirement
and became a builder-developer
of warehouses and industrial
parks. He was president of the
Associated Equipment Distributors Association, a Rotarian, and
a member of the prestigious Paul

in many civic organizations. Neil
also served as a past president of
the Board of Directors for Ocean

traveler. Neil graduated in 1935
from VPI know today as Virginia

Neil’s ties to Ocean Reef Club
date back to the days when it
was still a small fishing camp and
visitors stayed in yachtels. The
present Card Sound Road was
not yet built, and the airfield was
a grass strip. He often recalled
bringing fish into the weigh station located in Angelfish Creek
and taking a covered dish to the
Saturday night buffet.
As Charter members Neil and
his wife Celia, enjoyed many
years aboard their yacht at
Ocean Reef Club. Neil will be
greatly missed by his family and
friends. A Memorial Service and
Celebration of his Life were held

“Tennis

by Jim
Morton,
Director of
Tennis
This past weekend the Tennis
Center held the Doubles Club
Championship and three new
teams were crowned champions
while two teams defended their
titles. The most dramatic match of
the tournament took place on Sunday in the Ladies’ “A” flight final
as defending Champions Cyndee
Swenson & Denise Ecuyer played
the very strong hitting team of
sisters-in-law Beatriz Gutierrez
& Maria Gutierrez. The Gutierrez’s got off to a strong start using
powerful topspin drives and deftly
angled volleys to take the first set
6-3. However, after jumping out
to a 3-1 lead Swenson & Ecuyer
changed their tactics slowing
their shots down and throwing
up lobs to take away the net from
Players of
the Week
Pam Rudolph & Denica Fraser
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE PART OF
LEARNING TENNIS?
P: Seeing the difference in what
I think is the correct way of hitting the ball and what is actually
the correct way. D: I love getting the exercise. Winners Pete Swenson and Steve Woodsum with runners up
Bob Ecuyer and Wayne Rosen
the Gutierrez’s resulting in a great
comeback as they won the second
set 6-4. A super tiebreaker, 1st to
10 points, was played in lieu of a
third set and once again the Gutierrez’s jumped out to a quick lead
only to have Swenson & Ecuyer
again take the air out of the ball,
slowing the pace of their shots,
frustrating their opponents into
errors. With the score locked at 8
all, Swenson and Ecuyer dug deep
and found a way to win the last
two points clinching their second
straight title.
In the Men’s “A” flight, Pete
Swenson & Steve Woodsum
lost the first game of the first set
then went on a streak, winning 6
consecutive games against Wayne
Rosen & Bob Ecuyer to win the
set 6-1. In the second set, once
again Rosen & Ecuyer took the
first game only to see Swenson
& Woodsum go on another win
streak this time taking 3 games
in a row putting the score at 3-1.
WHO IS YOUR FAVORITE TENNISPLAYER?
P: I did go to the US Open and
Roger Federer is now my favorite. D: Marat Safin because he is an
animated explosive player who is
easy to look at. WHAT HAS BEEN THE BEST TIP OF
THE DAY? P: Hitting the bottom of the ball
and “brushing over it.” D: Using your left arm like a
left handed forehand on your
backhand. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE
ANIMAL?
P: My rescue mute Valentino.
D: My Havanese Izze.
1st place team Beatriz Gutierrez and Maria Gutierrez with
runners up Cyndee Swenson and Denise Ecuyer.
However, Rosen & Ecuyer won
the 5th game at love and then
proceeded to knot the set at 6
all, forcing a tiebreaker to decide
the set. In the tiebreaker Rosen
& Ecuyer again got off to a great
start as they took the first three
points only to then see Swenson &
Woodsum rattle off 7 of the next 8
points to secure the title.
In the”B” ladies’ flight Heidi
Roncarelli & Eve Rosen were
played even through the first six
games then turned it on winning
the next nine games defeating
the strong pairing of Janet Norris & Nancy Wood by the score
of 6-3, 6-0. The “B” flight men’s
final found defending Champions
Bruce Elliott & Gerry Henn too
strong as they took a 6-1, 6-0
win over Kevin Cassidy & Steve
Slovick. And in the Men’s “C”
flight final first time participant
Steve Rushmore & partner Bill
Wonfor won a very close first
set, 7-5, against the crafty team of
Graham Thomas & Bud Miller
before turning it on to win the
second set 6-1. Be sure to congratulate all of these Club Champions
when you see them around the
Club!
The Slice Serve
ball. Let’s use our clock analogy
again. Imagine this time that
the ball is a clock. You want to
strike the ball between two and
three o’clock. This slice (spin)
acts as a mechanism for bringing
your serve into the court rather
than sailing out. Finally, the last
principle to keep in mind is found
in the legs. When you throw a
baseball, you transfer your weight
from your back foot to your front
foot as you throw. The same is
true for the serve. If there is not
weight transfer, you are relying
solely on your arm, which makes
the serve lose power. If you transfer your weight, you will generate
power behind the serve.
by Craig
Kirchgessner
There are three key principles
for the slice serve. First, the toss.
The best tip I can provide for the
toss is to imagine a clock in front
of you.You want the toss to be in
between twelve and one o’clock.
Preferably a foot in front of the
baseline. The second principle
is hitting the correct part of the

To hit a good bunker shot you
need to get really good at hitting
the same place in the sand. You
should hit the sand right in the
center of your stance, where the
ball would be on a pitch shot. In
the sand the ball should be positioned nearer the front foot, a
few inches in front of the center.
Make the same swing you make
with a pitch or three quarter

shot, and hit the sand in the center of your stance. The sand will
fly out of the bunker and the ball
will fly out with it. Don’t try to
get fancy with an open clubface
and stance until you are good
and consistent with the simple
shot. Draw a line in the sand
in the practice bunker, put the
line in the center of your stance
and get good at hitting the line
and the sand will become your
friend.
For really long bunker shots
use the same technique and use
either a gap or pitching wedge
to get the ball to fly farther. You
should never try to take less sand
for a longer shot as that will lead
to inconsistency and really big
missed shots.

Boating Safety
Tip
Life Jackets
by Peter Liashek
Capt. Ocean Reef Coast Guard
Auxiliary
As I sit by the pool watching
the different types of boats go
in and out of the channel I often
wonder how many of these boats
comply with federal and state
regulations regarding personal
floatation devices (PFD) or “life
jackets”. The federal requirement
is that you must have a PFD for
everyone onboard, and all PFD’s
must be the proper size for each
person. They also must also be
readily accessible. That means
they should be stored in an area
that is easily accessible so that
you can put them on in a reasonable amount of time in case of
emergency. They should not be
in a compartment that is locked,
kept in plastic bags, or placed
underneath gear or supplies
where they cannot be seen.
PFD’s are required by federal
law for all children under 13
years old when the boat is underway unless the child is below
decks or in an enclosed cabin.
In addition, Florida State law
requires that all children under
the age of 6 must wear a PFD at
all times if the boat is under 26
feet in length and underway, and
also anyone operating a personal
watercraft, “jet ski”, must also
wear a PFD at all times! Another
Florida regulation requires that
a throwable device is required
for all boats longer than 16 feet.
This is called a type IV flotation
device and examples are a seat
cushion that floats or a floating
ring.
There are five types of PFD’s
( I, II, III, IV and V) and each
offers a different amount of
floatation as well as each type
of PFD is clearly marked on the
jacket, usually on the inside,
and all must have a Coast Guard
Approval stamped in the jacket
(again usually on the inside).
This might be a good time to
check the PFD’s on your boat to
see if you comply!!
RECENT CATCH

CAR D SO U N D SA IL IN G C L U B N E WS
Victories
contending with the previously
mentioned rising stars, was still able
to secure a 2nd overall. Gary Sayia
who has taken the day and the overall victory of the Magic-Dort Series,
and the most beer glass trophies. So,
when’s the keg party?!
Well, parties we do like, but of a
finer sort, as our club members took
a jaunt to the beautiful island of
Boca Chita for a fabulously catered
picnic luncheon, organized by Ann
Lampman and Patty Lucas earlier
this month. With a time of games
and fellowship, it was fun for all,
including our little ones.
So if this is the essence of life
you seek, look no further than your
sailboat on Card Sound.
by Lesley Eckhardt
Ah, sailing… it is an activity, a sport,
a state of mind, and a passion… to
win. We all set out to do our best, to
learn, to grow, to sharpen our mind
and our skills, to challenge our limits
against the wind and the sea. It is a
passion that parallels a driving force
in the essence of life, the beauty and
science of nature and deepening
the connection between the body,
mind, and soul as you set forth on a
journey…to win.
This was a week to rise to victory. With sail training and team
practices sharpening our skills and
tactics, Commodore Ed and Sandy
Kirschner swept a dominant and
impressive 1st in the canal races with
Dan Harding coming in a strategically run 2nd. After the races there
was a welcoming reception at the
home of the Johansen’s.
And a fantastic week of sailing
it was this... winter... with warm
temperatures and beautiful skies and
oscillating breezes causing a reset
of the course during Saturdays race.
Picnic at Boca Chita
Well done, Race Committee.
With the Magic-Dort Series drawing to a close there were victories,
big or small. Regardless of whether
you were in contention for the top
three, sheer determination compelled us to come out for another
day of racing.
So with great fervor, in comefrom-behind-fashion, Nick Csendes
forged a 5th and the Coffins took a
3rd in the first race, the Kirschner’s
seized a 4th in the second race, and
the Mullray’s captured a 3rd in the
final race. But it was the immense
determination of Dick Elliot and
Larry Askew, coming out as a shining beacon of fortitude, rising from
the depths of the middle of the fleet
in this series taking two 1st’s and an
overall 2nd for the day. Astounding!
But no great moments of victory
could squelch the top three for the
series overall. Strong runs early in
the series held George Fenner
to an overall 3rd, and Chris Streit,
Heard On The Course
The key to the first windward leg
is to arrive at the weather mark in
contention. Have a good start with
a clear lane, making the sure that the
boat is going fast.
Note where the fleet is going and
think carefully before straying. Finally be in phase with the wind shifts
(always sail the lifted tack). This was
especially important Saturday given
the fluctuating wind direction.

”The Weight Loss
Plateau”
“Fitness
Focus”
by Beth
Bielat,
Fitness
Center
Manager
1,2,3 pounds a week and then suddenly...SLAM!! Brakes on!!! What
the heck happened? You were losing weight so nicely for some time
and then the needle on the scale
just comes to halt. You’re doing the
same good stuff - watching your
diet, exercising, and following the
rules of engagement, right?
Well, the rules change. Your body
becomes accustomed to the new
you and adjusts to your diet and
workout routine - so, you just might
have to bump it up and change it
Congratulations to the “Healthy Living Program” participants.
The pounds are coming off and everyone is learning to live
healthier. You are an awesome, strong, and very compliant
group!
up. “The only way to break through
your weight-loss plateau and lose
more body fat is to cut calorie
intake further and/or burn more
calories through exercise,” advises
Dr. Kenney, of Pritikin. And as you
lose weight and body fat, your BMR
(the amount of calories your burn
at rest) actually decreases. In other
words, the calories you burn just
being alive decrease, so your calorie
intake must decrease and/or exercise
increase to
begin losing
weight again.
The good news
is that you
are probably
healthier than
before and you
can do more
intense and
longer duration
of exercise.
Here are a few
plateau breaking helpful
hints:
1. Eat Water-Rich
(Not Fat-Rich) Foods.
Your secret to success? Get as much
satiety as you can for every calorie
you eat. Vegetables and whole grains
fill you up and make you feel satiated.
2. Ditch the Dry Stuff.
Steer clear of dry foods, particularly
high-fat choices, like chips, crackers,
candy bars, trail mix, and cookies and
other baked goods
3. Start Out With a Big Satisfying Salad.
Lunch and dinner start with a
beautiful, colorful salad. (watch your
dressings!)
4. Make Good Use of Your Soup Spoons.
Vegetables, legumes, and high quality
protein are a mix for healthy, low
calorie soups.
5. Don’t Drink Your Calories.
Watch out for alcohol, juices, sodas,
and even protein shakes.
6. Get Simple.
Lose the buffets and fancy dinners
with cheeses, sauces, and gravies.
7. Get In Touch With Your Stomach
Sometimes hunger is a habit. Also,
being dehydrated can make you think
you are hungry.
8. Skip Dessert – Or Opt For Healthy
Choices
Pretty simple, desserts weigh-in heavy
on the calories. How about some
great berries.
9. Pump It Up
Changing your workout can be a real
plateau-breaker. As you get healthier,
try spurts of more intense cardio,
heavier weights, or just something
different like switching your cardiomachine up. Perhaps one or two
days a week , you can increase the
duration of exercise - go for a long
walk or paddle.
10. Keep Your Eye On the Prize
Remember WHY you are losing
weight- When you set goals, ask
yourself the big WHY’s and keep those
goals and answers in sight.

CRO Q U E T N E W S
BRIDGE SCORES
Tis’ The Season
by Betsy Caldwell
And Sundays are the days for the
largest gatherings. One Sunday there were so many players
that the courts were double and
triple banked. This prompted
one enthusiast to say, can we
find another court NOW? The
“Croquet Club” is unique – no
waiting list for membership (open
to everyone), no dues, just a shed
with all the equipment and friends
who play and are happy to teach.
One Sunday as the matches
rotated on and off the courts,
four men were waging an
especially long fight. This also
People and Croquet Balls Everywhere!
meant, that because of the busy
play, others were waiting to go
through a wicket. The score was
3-2, so the winner of the 6th
wicket either won the game or
tied the game. The shots on the
6th wicket were so wonderfully
incredible, knocking the opponents’ balls from across the court,
that it took the winning team 20
minutes on that one wicket. But
the team that had 3 points scored
that wicket to end the match.
Glad it was a cool afternoon! And
then the group migrated to The
Galley to continue the fun.
Teams rotate, with no set order
for who plays. As mentioned
above, sometimes four guys or
four girls play, sometimes couples, and
sometimes a
total mix of
guys and gals.
This makes
for lots of
interesting
play, as you
can come and
play without
bringing a
partner.

beating every day due to the
heavy makeup and harsh
lights at the Today Show. So I
make a visit to my good friend
Rebecca at Rejuvenations the
minute I get to The Reef. She
is by far the finest facialist
I’ve ever known. She also
creates the most relaxing,
healing environment for the
whole body in her Salon & Spa”

BUILDING A TRADITION
A promise, a commitment, a reassuring declaration. This is what the Value Proposition for the Ocean Reef
Club really offers. A Promise that the unique value of the Club will be delivered through an amazing array of
amenities available at a lower annual cost of ownership with the highest return of any comparable club. This
Promise includes all the intangible experiences and traditions that make a club special and separate Ocean
Reef from others. The Triple Golf Classic taking place this weekend is one example of the many traditions
here at Ocean Reef. Now in its 22nd year, it brings members together and challenges them against each other
as well as against the three very distinctive golf courses in the community.
We want to start a new tradition, one where the Ocean Reef Club Real Estate Company supports generations
of families as they continue to grow within the community. A tradition where our promise of Member
Satisfaction, Member Governance and Member Ownership, further enhance the Value Proposition. 47 listings,
9 new contracts, and it’s only the beginning… Join us in building this tradition by connecting with your Real
Estate Company. You will not be disappointed…after all, we promise.
