GLENEAGLES COUNTRY CLUB NEWSLETTER
As you walk down
the fairway of life you
must smell the roses,
for you only get to
play one round.
–Ben Hogan
August/September 2013
from the Board & Management
Dear Members,
Ralph Winer
bog president
Kraig Spina
general
manager
We hope you are having a wonderful summer. The Board, Committees
and Staff are working during the remaining summer months to finalize
plans for the upcoming season. We look forward to offering many new
and innovative activities, and dining options as well as exciting golf, tennis
and fitness offerings. The 2013-2014 fiscal year budget process is now
under way and will be presented to the Budget and Finance Committee in
October, with recommendations from the committee being forwarded to
the Board of Governors for approval.
We continue to report great news on the membership sales and real estate
front. From November 1, 2012 through July 2, 2013, we have closed or have
under contract to close 70 units, which is putting us on track to exceed prior
years’ sales from as far back as 2002. These sales have generated $1,300,000+
in new member fees and assessments through July. The inventory of homes
and condos has dropped from 120 in 2011 to 95 in 2012 to our current
level of 65 condos and 5 homes. Many of our new members have invested
significantly in renovations to their units. The Club is developing a Floor
Plans brochure for our garden villas and updated photo galleries on our
website to showcase some of the newly renovated units.
By far, the largest contributor to our recent success has been the
forward thinking of the Board of Governors and the many new programs
implemented to encourage real estate sales. With promotions ranging from
the Under 66 Discount (21 sales year to date), to the Second Unit Purchase
Program (12 sales year to date), to Stay & Play (3 sales year to date) to the
forthcoming Renovator Program, we have consistently implemented new
ideas and programs which have paid off significantly for the Club.
The Clubhouse Renovation project is progressing as planned. We are
currently making our way through the Design Development phase. In
this phase, we will work with the Interior Designer, Architect and other
consultants to identify floor treatments and finishes, wall and ceiling
finishes, decorative lighting concepts, and furniture and fabric concepts.
The first presentation of these facets will be in late July to the Board
of Governors, Management Staff and Common Area Maintenance
Committee. Our goal throughout this process is consensus.
Throughout the summer months, multiple projects
are taking place to maintain the infrastructure and
facilities within your Club. During the club closure,
the staff and contractors will attend to numerous
projects which would prove to be cumbersome and
disruptive during normal Club operations. The club
closure will allow a safe and orderly completion of
these projects. Recently, the Board of Governors
approved installing beverage stations within the
four remaining satellites of Loch Maree, Glendevon,
Lomond Hills and Clunie. These upgrades will be completed by year
end 2013. Loch Maree and Glendevon have already been completed.
We send our best wishes for an enjoyable summer. We look forward to
seeing you around the Club!
Respectfully yours,
Ralph Winer, President
Kraig Spina, General Manager

Research is pointing out that baby boomers

West Palm Beach based Newsmax magazine, we are

experiencing a “new wave of migrating boomers,

Gleneagles Country Club
We are very happy to present two new programs that have been recently
approved by the Board of Governors to help our existing members more
easily add a sports membership to their current membership.
Are you considering an upgrade to a Golf Membership? Take advantage
of our “Legendary Test Drive” and experience Gleneagles Golf prior to
obtaining a Golf Membership. Packages of 6 or 10 pre-paid rounds are
available to existing Tennis & Social members who are considering an
upgrade to a Golf or Full Membership. This test drive is limited to “once
in a lifetime,” is non-transferable, non-refundable, and only applicable
to resident Gleneagles members. All rounds expire within 6 months;
however, if you purchase a Golf Membership within 1 year of signing up
for your test drive, the amount paid for a test drive will be refunded.
For a limited time, current Gleneagles residents who are either under
the age of 66, or those who have been members for a minimum of 3 years,
may purchase sports memberships from the Club’s inventory at a 50%
discount of the current assessments. This promotion runs from July 1, 2013
– December 31, 2013 and applies to both Golf and Tennis Memberships.
Please contact the Membership Office for more information about these
great promotions!
Stay & Play Update
The Stay & Play program will be accepting visitors once again in
November 2013 – now in a new and improved location featuring a larger
floor plan and a closer proximity to the Clubhouse! We are happy to
welcome your friends and colleagues to Gleneagles for an experience of
the Gleneagles lifestyle prior to making a purchase decision! Packages
are customized based on the needs of our guests – all packages include
unlimited golf, tennis, fitness and several complimentary meals. The
Stay & Play program is only available to qualified prospective members.
Family of members, former members and lessees are not eligible for this
program. Contact me at 561-637-1201 or [email protected] for more
information.
Gleneagles Country Club in the Sun-Sentinel
Gleneagles Country Club will once again be the featured country
club in the Labor Day issue of the Boca Piquant magazine, which will be
inserted in the Sun-Sentinel on Thursday, August 22! Copies will also be

The golf staff would like to send our best to
everyone who has left us for the summer, and let you
know that we are still going strong with summer
golf activities. The Men’s South County Golf
League has been going very well. The Ladies have
been busy playing in some events such as South
Palm, Swingers, and Diamond League.
The golf staff has been busy putting together
the final touches on the upcoming season, and it
looks great. We are re-vamping the scorecard. It
will be smaller, and will have the local rules on it.
If you have not seen it on the PGA tour, the
new theme for the USGA is “Pace of Play.” We
look forward to being a part of that theme in the
upcoming season.
Please continue to take advantage of the great
clubs we have for our reciprocal program through
October 31. If you have any questions or any ideas
for next season, please give us a call or stop by the
golf shop!

pro golf tip:
sips & grips
As you know, I am a big advocate
of staying hydrated in the summer.
Remember, by the time you get really
thirsty, you are already dehydrated,
so keep those cups full! On the range,
please watch your time: always take a
break, have a seat and rest for a moment.
Grip pressure is always a very
important topic for the golf swing. If your
grip pressure is too tight, there is no feel,
and this will hurt the swing. It can cause
you to top a lot of shots because it is
hard to release the club with a tight grip.
Proper grips on your clubs are really
important as well. If your hands hurt,
maybe it is time to get a bigger grip on
your clubs so you do not have to close
your hand so much. When players start
to get a little arthritis, these bigger grips
help a lot! Stop in the Golf Shop and see
us if you have a question regarding your
grips. – Joe
Brett Foti retail manager
Whether you are up north or here in sunny Delray for the summer, I
hope you are enjoying the beautiful weather we’ve been having! With all
of this gorgeous weather you must stop by and pick up a few fresh new
outfits for your golf game with the ladies. There is no better place than in
your own Gleneagles Golf Shop. We have a great selection of new groups
arriving in early August through the end of September, so don’t miss out!
Sport Haley has a fashionably unique collection arriving with trendy
traditional prints and stunning colors like Rose Peach and Honeydew.
Look out for the Jamie Sadock as well! Her soft Opaline Blue tones
mixed with Amazona Olive and Jet Black will make anyone turn their
head when you walk by.

pro tennis tip:
GET A (NEW) GRIP
Even though you may have been playing
tennis for many years, you still may be able
to tweak your grip position to enhance your
game. Grips contribute power and spin to
your game while allowing flexibility in your
shot selection. If you learned to play more
than 20 years ago, chances are you will have
a continental grip on both sides, (where the
“V” the thumb and forefinger create is on the
left bevel of the grip for righties), producing
a flat to topspin forehand and a one-handed
slice backhand. Moving your grip just slightly,
1/8 of an inch to the right on your forehand,
(for righties), will produce more topspin. If
you would ever like to develop a topspin
backhand, it is essential to move your grip at
least ¼ inch to the left. This will close the face
and provide proper wrist position. Serving
with a forehand grip? Don’t expect any spin.
Ideally, a serve, (first and second) should
be hit with a continental grip, (as should
BOTH forehand and backhand volleys). If
you are willing to put in a little work and
trust the process, try experimenting with grip
adjustments. It will give you power, variety
and control. – Mike

Racquet Talk
Mike Puc, uspta director of tennis & fitness
The tennis department recently conducted a
survey to research the desires of our membership
prior to establishing the 2013 – 2014 Calendar of
Events. Of 95 replies, some of the key results were:
• 67% of respondents favored allowing guests to social mixers.
• 50% would allow non-players to Member Guest events.
• 76% would play in mixer events that did not offer food service.
• Most members enjoy BOTH the tennis patio and clubhouse for food service.
• Price overwhelmingly did NOT affect participation.
• 80% prefer morning events to afternoon events.
The staff and Tennis Committee will discuss these comments and
wishes and adjust the calendar accordingly.
We win! We win! In recently completed spring league play,
Gleneagles won not one, but two championships. The Fall Golden Girls
captained by Gail Glickman and Ann North won in convincing fashion
while the Sunday Mixed League captained by Shelly Bender
Tennis
squeaked out a dramatic one-point win. Congratulations

August/September 2013
Researchers from the department of kinesiology and health education
at Southern Illinois University had one goal: to determine the effect–if
any–of abdominal exercises on abdominal fat. 24 sedentary men and
women were recruited and separated into two groups, a non-exercise
group and an abdominal exercise group.
The abdominal exercise group performed two sets of 10 repetitions
of seven abdominal exercises, five times per week, for six weeks. At the
end of the study, the exercise group showed no change in body weight,
body composition or abdominal circumference. However, they were
able to endure more abdominal exercises and had increased strength in
the abdominal muscles after those 6 weeks.
So what’s the real way? Your daily diet is the real and only way. You can
take the following steps to reduce your waistline.
Step 1: Jump Starting Your Metabolism
• Eat breakfast. Eating breakfast within an hour of waking up keeps your
insulin levels steadier and your bad cholesterol lower.
• Decompress. The secretion of cortisol, caused by stress, is correlated
with an increase in belly fat.
• Aim to take 10,000 steps a day.
• Switch out refined grains for whole grains.
• Drink plenty of water.
Step 2: Exercising for Fat Loss
• Exercise in small bursts.
• Skip the crunches – for now. Abdominal crunches and sit ups should
build strong muscles, but you might not see them under belly fat.
• Increase cardiovascular exercise.
• Add resistance training.
Step 3: Dieting for Fat Loss
• Reduce calorie consumption.
• Eat good fats.
• Get more fiber in your diet.
Step 4: Staying Motivated
• Join forces with a friend.
• Understand risks associated with belly fat. Belly fat is linked with
cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and cancer

At The Bridge Table by pat hunn
Throughout the entire year, in and out of season, Gleneagles Bridge hosts
two American Contract Bridge League sanctioned duplicate bridge games
each week. Every Tuesday evening, at 7:00 pm, we hold an open game in the
♦ ♣ Ladies Card Room, followed by a ladies’ game at 12 noon, each Wednesday
afternoon in the Legends Lounge. During 2012-2013, almost 1300 tables
played duplicate bridge here. This is an astounding attendance considering
that we play only two sessions a week! ACBL masterpoints are awarded to the
leading players at each game and each first place winner receives a free game.
During the last Tuesday game of each month, in season, a separate section of bridge
is reserved for players in our two lowest strata, making it easier for these players to earn
masterpoints and advance in stature within the ACBL. Each year, more of our members
achieve Life-Master status within the hierarchy of the ACBL, and their achievement (along
with the bridge accomplishments of other members) is honored on the Gleneagles Bridge
bulletin boards in the breezeway of the clubhouse.
Sadly, their peers do not recognize the accomplishments of some of our members who
earn masterpoints, because they have not joined the ACBL. Besides masterpoint achievement
recognition, ACBL members receive The Bridge Bulletin, which highlights bridge news and
informative articles for players of all levels. Recently, a series of articles by Eddie Kantar was
entitled “52 Facts of Bridge Life,” and presented a primer of information that every bridge
player should know. Articles are available on the ACBL web site, ACBL.org.
Additionally, ACBL supports many charities. This year, the “Longest Day” event held
on June 21st contributed to Alzheimer’s research. Many of us who participated were given
buttons and purple convention card holders indicating support of this important cause.
The convention card holders will come in handy, since, starting next October, each pair
playing in our duplicates will be required to have at least one filled in convention card.
Our director, JoAnne Casen, will be pleased to assist all who need guidance in filling out a
convention card. A simplified convention card, entitled “Standard American Yellow Card”
(“SAYC”) is available on the ACBL web site.
Membership in the ACBL costs only $28 for the first year and $37 a year thereafter. It is
easy to join by calling 800-264-2743 or going online at ACBL.org. Participation in the ACBL
is well worth the cost, since it enhances each member’s bridge experience.
Finally, I am sad to report that our longtime bridge director, Ruthie Gold, passed away on
June 13. Gleneagles Bridge mourns her passing and extends our comfort and consolation to
her family and many friends.

Computer Club News by marvin silverston, president
Hope you are all having a good summer. Before I go any further, I must say a
work of thanks. Jerry Bartzoff, after being our webmaster for the last 9 years has
decided to retire from this position. Fortunately, he will continue to serve on the
Computer Club Board. Anything that he will undertake in the future will
be done with the same enthusiasm that he has displayed in the past. As
for those of you who have opened gleneaglescomputer.org recently, you may
have noticed we have changed the layout of the web site. All the old favorites are still there
and they will now be maintained by our new webmaster, Len Merel. This is still a work in
progress, so any suggestions would be appreciated.
Our first program will be an introduction to our new web site on October 21 at 3:00 pm
in Strathearn Satellite. Classes & workshops will start on November 4.
Membership in the Computer Club is open to all Gleneagles residents for $20 per year
per family. Even though some of our board members are away for the summer, we will
continue to help you with your computer problems. You can get help by going to help@
gleneaglescomputer.org or call 637-1231 and leave a message. Please do not call anyone
individually because even though we do not go away for the entire summer, we may not be
here when you call and that will only delay receiving help. HAPPY COMPUTING!

Gleneagles Country Club
Summer is here! This can be a great time for
relaxing with family and friends while enjoying the
nice weather. But it can also be dangerous if you
don’t take the proper precautions.
Your body works hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature. Given the nature of South
Florida’s high temperatures (not including the
humidity factor), the heat forces your body to work
harder than normal, which could lead to heat-related
illnesses.
Typically, heat-related illnesses result from
prolonged exposure to the sun. This includes simple
sunburns, heat exhaustion and sometimes even heat
stroke. Here a few the simple tips for summer safety:
• Drink plenty of water. The easiest way to stay cool is also a great way to
stay hydrated and safe while out in the sun. Make sure to have plenty
of water on hand during the day, whether you’re outdoors or not.
• Protect your skin. Use sunscreen when you know you’ll be outside for
a prolonged period of time during the day. Wear a hat to lessen sun
exposure to the face and neck.
• Limit strenuous activity and exercise. If you exercise regularly, try it
during the early morning or late evenings. Take regular breaks when
possible if you have to work outdoors.
• Take frequent breaks to cool down. When spending time out in the
hot sun, it’s beneficial to take numerous breaks to allow your body to
recover. Having a cool area in your home in which to recover can also
be beneficial.
• Check on your friends and family. The heat can be especially difficult
on young children and the elderly, so make sure to check regularly on
your family, friends and neighbors during hot spells.
If you have any questions, please feel to call Security at 921-9999.
Thank and have a great summer!
