THE BAY WINDOW • 13 DIRECTOR OF CLUB OPERATIONS Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls, I am honored to become a part of the legend that is The Balboa Bay Club and Resort. In my new role as Director of Club Operations I look forward to assisting each of you with things big and small. In my duties I’ll be overseeing the Marina operations, the Apartment operations, the Membership and the events you have come to love, the Spa and recreational areas around the club. For those of you who I have not yet met I’ll share a little background about myself. I was born and raised in Edinburgh, Scotland, though on first meeting you probably won’t hear my accent – long story short, I found I was repeating myself constantly, so I made a conscious effort to speak “American”. I started my 25 years of hospitality at the Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades. I opened the Loews Hotel in Santa Monica and held a multitude of roles in the five and a half years I was there. I spent a few years at LAX at what is now the Westin Hotel, followed by the Hilton in Deerfield Beach Florida, then a short three year stint in recruiting. A move to Vegas brought me back into the hotel side of life at the Crowne Plaza, then the Crowne Plaza Resort Anaheim/Garden Grove where I joined the PHG Family. For the last seven years I have had the pleasure of working with the team at The DoubleTree by Hilton Irvine Spectrum. We have had some wonderful successes there including winning the prestigious CARE Cup, awarded to the top hotel, out of 250, for service in three categories – Service to our guests, service to our team members and service in our community. I am so excited to be a part of The Balboa Bay Club and Resort and I look forward to meeting each of you. My email is [email protected] and my direct line is 949-630-4375, should you need anything.

I truly look forward to becoming acquainted with all of you as you attend The Club and participate in the many activities and events as the summer winds down. I am honored and excited to be part of the rich tradition of The BBC. What a wonderful and beautiful place to come to work everyday. As with all of you, I anticipate great things with the recent change in leadership at the property and have confidence that we are in good hands moving forward. I am anxious to bring my knowledge and expertise to the tremendous team here and to enhance the overall membership experience. I grew up in San Diego and later graduated from Snow College in Utah where I played both basketball and golf. I have spent the last 12 years in Golf Sales; 7 years as a Membership Sales Director at private clubs here in Orange County including SeaCliff and Marbella, and the last 5 years at Monarch Beach Golf Links in Dana Point. I enjoy thoroughbred horse racing (my first job as a 14 year old), ice hockey, and golf as well as spending time with my family. My wife is Lonnie, and I have two sons- Zane (10) and Reid (7).

In July we had our 57th Annual Men’s Member Guest Regatta. This much anticipated annual event features three days of competition culminating in a Saturday evening awards party. The event also features a pairings party, a derby and much more. This is our premier men’s event and an annual tradition for many of the participants who come back year after year with the same guest. As in years past this year’s Regatta offered some fine golf play beginning with the derby on Wednesday and continuing until the final hole on Saturday. When play concluded we crowned our newest champions. Congratulations to the 2012 Regatta Champions member Richard Beall and his partner John Beall from Randolph Men’s Club. Our congratulations also go out to member Tobin Bogard and his partner, Jim Meyer from El Niguel Country Club on their Overall Low Gross win.

In 2002 they realized their dream of starting a winery. Trinitas Cellars is a small winery based in Napa Valley that is owned and operated by the Busch family. Trinitas celebrates the connection among sun, soil, and humanity by working closely with its grower society throughout Northern California. Furthermore, Trinitas sources a broad range of varietals from the regions where climate and soil conditions are most favorable for each specific varietal. Small quantities of these exceptional grapes are then handcrafted into an approachable Californiastyle wine to be enjoyed as an aperitif or with food. Some of the wines come from historical vineyards in Northern California with a number of vineyards over a century old. Trinitas’ signature wine is the Carneros Chardonnay. Trinitas makes a traditional California style buttery and oaky Chardonnay. The wine is endearingly called the “butterscotch bomb” by its fans and year after year delivers a rich, creamy, and delicious Chardonnay. Trinitas is also becoming known for some of its blends, including its flagship Meritage wine, as well as its unique blend Mysterium, which changes every year.

THE BAY WINDOW • 31 BBC RECIPROCAL CLUBS A LONDON CONNECTION JUST FOR BBC MEMBERS During a recent visit to London to attend the International Congress of Les Clefs d’Or Concierges, I jumped at the opportunity to call on two of our distinguished reciprocal clubs in the heart of that great city. First -- the venerable St, James Hotel and Club. Located in the shadow of the famed Ritz hotel, the Club exudes style, sophistication and service. The quiet mews location is just steps away from Piccadilly’s superb shopping, restaurants and entertainment. and it’s not far from Buckingham Palace ! My friend and fellow Clefs d’Or, Madelaine Calon, showed me around. She’s a refined but vivacious blonde who knows the Club like the back of her hand. Despite its history and traditions, the St. James offers the best of modern comforts – elegant, yet restful guest rooms (all unique), the award-winning Seven Park Place for fine dining, and a cool, laid-back bar and bistro. Madelaine and her team love to assist visiting reciprocal members with theatre and event tickets, shopping and sightseeing. Drop by and say “Good Day”. They would love to see you. You may even run into regular guests Meryl Streep or Elton John … or perhaps a “minor Royal”. Next month, I visit the renowned Landsdowne Club, a stone’s throw from the US Embassy. Regards, Patrick Hynes, your resort Concierge BBC BOOK REPORT MEET BBC MEMBER AND AUTHOR EARL CARRAWAY Earl Carraway, a Nellie Gail Ranch home owner for over 24 years recently published a book of 48 true short stories of the Great Depression Era of the 1930’s entitled “Shake Off The Dust 1936”. It is a memoir by the author. It is available at Barnes & Noble, Amazon.com, Kindle, Nook and Create Space. A 30 second TV commercial can be viewed at: YouTube Shake Off The Dust 1936. A screen play will be written soon. As a former teacher of History and English, the book was written for the High School and College youth of America. The author has come to realize that parents and grandparents also enjoy true stories from the Great Depression Era. It is written in the voice of a 17 year old much like J.D. Salinger’s “The Catcher In The Rye” which has been required reading in schools for over 50 years. Critics say, “The book is what you would get if Mark Twain had written “The Catcher In The Rye’”. It is in sharp contrast to the classic “The Catcher In The Rye”, which is thought to be depressing, cynical, bitter and urges youth to not grow up because all adults are phony. The character “Harold” refuses to let cynicism and bitterness overcome him. A college professor from Clayton State University, Georgia requires the book for his AP English Composition classes because he feels our youth need the message of the memoir. One of the short stories in the book called “Sister Joshine” will be appreciated by those of the Catholic and Protestant persuasion, “Mr. Prince” by the Jewish persuasion, “Old Ben” by African Americans. Carraway states that there is something for everyone.
