It has been an honor to serve and a pleasure writing for our Scorecard. country club s c o r e c a r d March/April 2013 Leave the Details to Us 2 A Message from the President 3 General Manager’s Moment 4 Membership5 Activities6 Spotlight10 FYI11 Kids Korner 12 Calendar14 On the Scene 16 Golf18 Tennis21 Fitness24 Spa & Salon 26 Parting Shots 28 First, let me thank my fellow Board Members, current and past, for serving with me on the Club Board and the current Board for selecting me as your President. Next, my family and friends for allowing me the time to serve our community properly, and the Woodfield management team for its support throughout my time as President. Last, but not least, the Woodfield membership for its continued respect of my personal life and time. Accomplishments. After more than six years on the Board, I can now proudly look back and see our accomplishments. There have been numerous achievements during my tenure; price friendly offerings; affordability and stabilization of dues; an enormous reduction of the debt; establishment of the golf relinquishment program and its corresponding upgrade program; highest percentage of home sales year after year when compared to our neighboring clubs; and my most personally satisfying achievement, co-chairing the Hardship Committee. For those members that are unaware of the existence of the Hardship Committee, its purpose is to help members experiencing personal financial difficulties, so they are able to remain part of the Woodfield family. In its four years of existence, over 50 families have benefitted, and so has the Club and membership with a significant reduction in nonpaying members. My challenges for future Boards. For many years now accountability has been superb without micromanaging. Keep it as a priority without impacting member services. Next, look closely at the golf relinquishment program and consider making it a permanent part of our Club By-Laws. Third, review the Enhanced Guest Program. I feel positive benefits could be achieved by offering it at all dues levels. Last, and most important, remember that member satisfaction is first and foremost. Keep up the great work that has preceded you. My challenges to the membership. Speak up when you are not satisfied. Let the Board and management know your likes and dislikes. We welcome your suggestions, as our ultimate goal is to exceed your expectations. Don’t be afraid to serve on the Club Board or a Committee. It is quite an honor to participate. Attend meetings. Your input impacts our decisions as well as the services and amenities the Club offers. Finally, use the Club and its world-class amenities. Our Club provides an environment to socialize, dine and play, and offers activities and services which enhance our lifestyle. Thank you again for allowing me to serve you for the past six plus years. Sincerely, Layout & Design by EG Communications Group Howard M.

Names: Lisa and Bob Marton Children and ages: Gabby (15 years), Ben (13 years) and Emmy (10 years) Moved to Woodfield: February 2003 WCC: Why did you choose to purchase a home in Woodfield? What part of Club life most attracted you? Bob and Lisa Marton > The youth of the membership attracted us to Woodfield. We purchased a home in a family friendly community, The Hamptons, and we enjoy the Club’s diverse offerings for the whole family. When our kids were little, we used Kids Korner. Now that they are older, they use the fitness center and play a lot of tennis. I personally enjoy the tennis and the fitness center, while Bob spends his time on the golf course. Not to mention that the food is amazing...we love Chef Bart. WCC: What is your family’s favorite event to attend at Woodfield? > We love the annual Season Opening Weekend. Bob and I look forward to the Season Opener evening on Saturday night, and the kids love the BBQ on Sunday. WCC: Mrs. Marton, as an active tennis player, what do you enjoy about Woodfield’s tennis program? > I LOVE playing team tennis at Woodfield. We have the best facilities and tennis professionals. I enjoy my weekly practice where I get to work on improving my skills, and the match play is competitive and fun. I like knowing that I have a schedule to play tennis with my team each week. I also enjoy the tennis boot camps that are offered throughout the year. It’s nice being on a court with three comparable players learning new skills and drills. It’s a great learning experience AND a great workout. Mixed Doubles on Sundays are fun, too. It’s a nice way to mix up your game with new and different players. The tennis Member-Guest Tournament is always fun. Woodfield really knows how to make our guests feel welcome and have a great day of tennis and lunch. WCC: What Woodfield activities and amenities do you enjoy individually and as a family? > I love using the fitness facility. Besides the equipment, I also like taking classes like TRX, boot camp and yoga. I enjoy walking the Woodfield circle with my dog (FYI: the circle is 2.2 miles). I also play team tennis and adore the spa facilities. Bob plays in the Men’s Golf League every Wednesday and enjoys the golf course on the weekends. Our children like the fitness facility and tennis. All of us LOVE the restaurants throughout Woodfield. We use the Tiki area quite a bit and we also use Woodfield To Go during the week, especially on busy nights. Bob and I also like going to the O Bar on Friday evenings. WCC: When you are not enjoying the Woodfield amenities, what does your family like to do? > We like to get away. We go to Miami to see the Miami Heat and enjoy the city that is so close to our home. During the summer we are in upstate NY enjoying the mountains and lake living.

Increased Lung Capacity: Your lungs are forced to work harder from the pressure of the water, challenging them with each breath. Increased Flexibility: Being under water gives you a wider range of motion, enabling you to perform more difficult stretches. Decreased Body Stress: The water provides support and buoyancy, decreasing the probability of muscle, bone and joint injuries. Improved Cardiovascular Conditioning: The heart rate remains at a constant pace, promoting aerobic training. The best part about aqua fitness is that it’s for everyone!
