please plan accordingly.
Most of us have limiting beliefs and some emotional issues that sabotage our energy and performance levels.
By efficiently clearing out these mental blocks we will be more alive, alert and happier at whatever we do. Marc
Zimmerman has developed powerful techniques to efficiently achieve these suggested results. Come visit and
explore the possibilities. Sign up at the front desk.

motivation. The themes of session II will include imagery, relaxation techniques to combat anxiety, and centering
techniques. Those new to the workshop will receive an individual free consultation. Sign-up at the front desk.
CVAC NEWSLETTER AUGUST 2014 Notes From The General Manager
Generally Speaking
Respected Members of Carmel Valley Athletic Club,
I hope you have all been enjoying summer and the incredible weather we enjoy regularly
here at CVAC. Those of you who like to bask in the sun around our pool have certainly been
enjoying all the new lounge chairs which arrived just in time for the warm weather. Some
new umbrellas were also added for those who prefer a little shade.
We are aso excited to annouce that the television program “The Good Life” will be filming
segments for their upcoming season. The show focuses on helping others to live a healthy
vibrant life. It’s about living a life of wellness that makes you feel great and keep your outlook on life positive. The topics will be endless from fitness to healthy products, dance and
everything in between and beyond.
For our tennis playing members, our Tennis Director, Mike Zury, and I have some exciting news. This September, all our front courts are scheduled to be resurfaced with fresh court paint. We would like to thank everyone
in advance for their patience as we expect the whole process to be completed in about a week. More details to
follow.
Thank you for all the constructive feedback regarding recent changes in our locker policy. Per many suggestions,
we have modified our previous policy. Now, lockers not currently rented will be available for day use (only) and
are on a first-come, first-serve basis. Lockers are still available for rent for $20 per month and can be assigned
by a front desk attendant. Please remember that locks and contents will be removed if left in “day use” lockers
overnight.
Finally, a link to the right of our online newsletter provides an updated version of our Club’s Policies & Procedures. Members are also free to pick-up a hard copy from one of our friendly front desk team members on their
next visit to the Club.
Thank you for your continued support and I look forward to seeing you at the Club,
Daryl Piercey
General Manager
