The Heritage Horn • February 2015 Heritage Hunt Golf & Country Club: www.heritagehunt.net General Manager’s Message Warm greetings from all of us at CMC, your Association managers! By now we have seen some snow and ice, but it has been relatively mild and we hope it continues that way. As we continue to deal with the wind, cold and potential snow, its time for a quick reminder that on those snow/ice days we ask that you don’t park on the roads. This enables our snow/ice removal crews to quickly and safely clear our roadways. Please also keep in mind that these crews only begin to work when there is (2) inches of snow on the ground. During that time they use a salt/sand mixture which becomes most effective when the temperatures rise above 25 degrees Fahrenheit. Please be aware that our Facilities Engineers and I are constantly monitoring and communicating with our vendor to ensure a timely cleaning of our roadways. As in previous years, they do parking lots and streets first, then cul-de-sacs, and finally pipe stems. Driveway aprons are only plowed when the snow is six inches or more. All residents are expected to take care of their own sidewalks as he HOA only clears sidewalks in close proximity to the community buildings. We also appreciate the extra care and attention you as a community give when driving throughout Heritage Hunt. January was a busy month for bringing on new faces and personalities to volunteer time in the governance and activities related to the community. They are your newly elected board and committee members. Ken Aitchison was elected by the Board to be the Board President. For other Board and committee positions please visit page 5. As I attend most of the committee and all of the board meetings, it was exciting to see all of them jump in and begin to work on community activities and formulate their 2015 goals. One of those goals, shared by many, is the completion of the Clubhouse kitchen, dining room and lounge. With construction well under way we are enthused and will regularly share online the status of the renovation. To date we have seen the removal of old carpet, equipment, and furniture, some basic framing put in, and the installation of our new refrigeration unit. A special thanks to the task force and our contractors for their diligence as we prepare to show case the “masterpiece” the first part of April. In the interim, don’t forget to check out the new menu which is being served at the Marsh Mansion Parlor. This new service takes the place of your regular food and beverage service of the Tavern and Virginian Dining Room. Another project and opportunity for all of us is expressing our concerns over the proposed power line routes from Dominion Power. The Community Relations Committee has organized a special Town Hall on March 4 from 7-9 PM in the Mountain View Room with Supervisor Pete Candland to discuss the status of the project. We encourage all to attend - your voice makes a difference. One way we have seen this happen is with Comcast agreeing to provide all Heritage Hunt residents a rebate for the purchase of a backup battery for the Xfinity Voice Modem. The rebate form and its details may be found on the community website and at the Clubhouse Front Desk. There will be some retroactive rebates made for those of you who have already purchased the battery, so please review the website for details. Lastly, as winter winds down over the next 4-6 weeks you will see some new faces on property. Starting this month we welcome our new landscape company, HLS, to Heritage Hunt. We look forward to working with them this next year. I wish you all the best during this cold winter season. Think spring. The crack of the bat is just around the corner.

The Board of Directors met January 2, 2015 and elected 2015 officers: They are: President Ken Aitchison, Vice President Sandy Painter, Treasurer Don Hambric and Secretary Kathy Vergano. Completing the 2015 Board are: Directors Rex Giekes, Jack Martins and Cathy Walsh. Contact information for all Directors can be found on the HOA Website as well as in the Heritage Horn Directory. Residents should feel free to contact any Director at any time with issue and concerns. Attendance at Board meetings is also encouraged and welcomed. The scheduled February meeting dates are Monday February 16th at 9:30 in the Club House BOD Room and Thursday February 26th at 2 PM in the Club House Mt. View Room. The BOD appreciates the suggestions made on what the BOD BRIEF Column should cover each month and we will seek to incorporate those suggestions into forthcoming articles. Kathy Vergano, HOA BOD Secretary Conway Robinson Park Deer Culling A Success The managed hunt on the Conway Robinson State Forest was a success again in 2014. In two days of hunting, 15 deer were harvested which is the same number as in 2013. Hunters were again dedicated to the objective of population reduction, and did an excellent job of deer population management by working hard to harvest 81% antlerless deer. A positive response in tree regeneration and herbaceous growth has been observed in the forest due to reducing the deer population. The Department of Forestry is again happy with the results of the hunt and the positive response in the forest. Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) was found at the Conway in 2014. EAB is a non-native invasive insect first identified in Detroit, MI, and it’s spread to the mid-atlantic states. EAB attacks all species of Ash trees, which have no natural defenses to it. While the Ash component of the forest on the Conway is small, many of the trees around the parking lot and pavilion are Ash. The Ash trees around the parking lot will be cut as their health declines over coming years due to EAB. Other activities are planned for 2015 on the Conway Robinson State Forest, including a prescribed burn in the understory of the pine stand that was thinned in 2013. The prescribed burn will improve wildlife habitat and help control hardwood competition. Trail maintenance will occur periodically throughout the year.

The Heritage Horn • February 2015 Heritage Hunt Golf & Country Club: www.heritagehunt.net Submission of Design Review Applications The HOA Board of Directors has approved the Architectural Review Committee (ARC) changing its meeting day from the 2nd and 4th Friday of the month to the 2nd and 4th Wednesday of the month. Typically, that would mean that Design Review Applications would be due to the Covenants Administrator on the Monday that is 9 days earlier than the meeting day. However, owners need to be aware that beginning in February 2015, the focus of ARC meetings will be to work on its proposal for revision of the July 24, 2012 version of the Design Guidelines. Therefore, owners should try to get their applications submitted in time for review at the meeting occurring on the 2nd Wednesday of the month. Why is this being done? The Board has asked the ARC to complete its review of the July 24, 2012 version of the Design Guidelines and submit a comprehensive proposal for revision as soon as practicable in 2015. The ARC meets for three hours 22 times each year. Our experience in 2014 was that review and approval or disapproval of applications took up nearly all of the three hours allotted to each meeting. Therefore, with the approval of the Board, we voted at the January 14, 2015 beginning in February 2015 to focus the first 1-2 hours of the second meeting each month to working on proposed revisions to the 2012 Design Guidelines. That means that some applications may not be heard at the meeting on the 4th Wednesday of the month and may be carried over to the 2nd Wednesday of the following month. What is the point? Get your applications in early each month so they can be approved / disapproved on the 2nd Wednesday of the month. If there are emergencies – such as a leaking roof – we will deal with them expeditiously. Andy Johnson, ARC Chair TIA and Stroke: Do you know the signs and what to do? Did you know that 700,000 people suffer a stroke each year. Five hundred thousand of these strokes are first occurrences, while the rest are repeat strokes. That equates to someone experiencing a stroke every 45 seconds in the United States. On Tuesday, February 17, in the Mountain View room, Dr. Ester Bahk, MD Internal Medicine, will explain TIA and stroke and the signs and symptoms of both. In addition, she will discuss the latest diagnostic and treatment options and what you should do if you think you are having a TIA or stroke. A question and answer will follow the discussion. This program is sponsored by the Community Relations Committee.

Cyber security is general Internet safety, which includes protection of anything connected to or accessible by the internet- from networks themselves to the information stored in computers. Technology has changed tremendously in the past 25 years, and it only continues to advance. The Internet has brought us so many benefits; email, electronic messaging, and personal websites allow us to stay connected, informed, and involved with family and friends. It is interesting to note that “Baby Boomers” embrace new technologies 20 times faster than members of Gen Y, including social sites, podcasts, and blogs. The Internet provides an easy way to shop, plan travel, and manage finances. However, with these increased conveniences comes increased risk. Just like any other public environment, the Internet requires awareness and caution. Just as you use locks to keep criminals out of your home, you also need safeguards to secure your computer. Many of the crimes that occur in real life are now done - or at least facilitated - through the Internet. Theft, abuse, and more can be and are being done online. Many scammers target older Americans via emails and websites for charitable donations, dating services, auctions, health care, and prescription medications. Below are some common sense rules from the real world that apply in the online world. • Don’t judge a book by its cover. Cyber criminals hide behind the anonymity of the Internet. What you say and do online is visible to others, and it’s not erasable. Don’t communicate or reveal any personal information to strangers online. Personal information includes your name, address, age, phone number, birthday, email address, social security number, and insurance policy numbers – even your doctor’s name. • Look before you leap. Don’t enter contests, join clubs, or share your personal information for any reason, unless you know you are on a reputable website. Do not open attachments, click links, or respond to email messages from unknown senders or companies that ask for your personal information. Most organizations – banks, charities, universities, companies, etc. - don’t ask for your personal information over email. Beware of requests to update or confirm your personal information. • All that glitters is not gold. Be wary of emails offering “free” gifts, prizes, or vacations. These are tricks designed to get you to give up personal information. Personal information can be pieced together to steal identities, money, or credit. • A chain is as strong as its weakest link. Once we understand the dangers we face online, we need to tell other people who might not be as cyber smart and savvy. Every Internet user, no matter how young or old, is our Nation’s first line of defense against people who might want to do harm. If we all become more aware of who we talk to, what we say, and what we share online we can all make a big difference. Protecting Against Online Fraud Be sure to remember these tips when navigating the internet to avoid fraud: • Seeking Medical Advice. When you go to any medicalrelated website, be sure to consider: How current is the information? Check to see when the information was released. The Heritage Horn • February 2015 Heritage Hunt Golf & Country Club: www.heritagehunt.net Cyber Tips (continued) Do not rely on a single website for information, consult a few sources and be sure to check who exactly is providing the information. Many pharmaceutical companies create websites with information to sell products. Look for sites ending in .edu (for education) or .gov (for government). • Banking. When using online banking services, check to be sure the sites you navigate are secure. One quick clue to determine whether a website is safe is if the URL begins with “https://.” When using a public computer–such as one at your local library–avoid typing your personal information. Look for the padlock icon at the bottom of your browser, which indicates the internet Website uses encryption. Additionally, type website URLs directly into the address bar, do not follow links. • Shopping. If you shop online, check your credit card statements as often as possible and use a credit card for online purchases. Credit cards have some protections that debit cards do not, such as the ability to question unusual charges. For more information on cyber security, visit http://www.dhs. gov/stopthinkconnect.

Newell Curb Appeal Ideas? If you are considering creating your home landscaping front yard entrance more effectively remember an effective focal point captures viewers’ attention, directing the gaze to the desired spot in the design. First, use effective hardscape installation is essential to attaining this goal. Also, you should strive to using flowering trees and shrubs during spring and summer and use fall color in the autumn. We will continue to provide additional recommendations in future issue for improving your curb appeal. February Landscape Chores - It’s important to check recently planted trees and shrubs to determine if they need watering. This is especially true for evergreens as they can lose moisture through their leaves and needles. Gently brush snow off evergreen shrubs on trees to prevent breakage. February is ideal month to lime the lawn if necessary (as long as the ground is not frozen). Apply 50 pounds of lime per 1000 square feet of lawn to raise the pH about half a point. Lawns prefer a pH range of 6.2 to 6.8. Plant helleborus, witchhazel, heather and primrose for color and interest in February. Prune deciduous trees, such as oak, birch, dogwood, crape myrtle and maple. Pruning can help to improve the structure of trees to prevent damage from ice and snow as well as improving their health and vigor. Be sure to remove dead, broken or branches rubbing together, and then trim to desired size and shape. If you have fruit trees and roses spray in late February/ March with Lime Sulfer Spray to prevent insect and disease problems. Only apply the spray if temperatures are above freezing. Consult with our local experts such as Virginia Cooperative Extension Service or Merrifield Garden Center for monthly applications to prevent insect and fungal disease. Pruning Shrubs: Acuba (if needed), Red Twig Dogwood (prune to ground), Hibiscus, PeeGee Hydranges, Hydrangeas, Mopheads and Lacecaps (older and weaker stems). Oakleaf, prune only dead wood. Nandina, prune old canes to ground to encourage new growth. Photinia, prune hard to desired height. Spiraea, lightly prune to desired height. Vitex (Chaste Tree), prune hard. Sedum (‘Autumn Joy’) cut to ground. Fertilizing Shrubs: Azaleas, fertilize with Holly-tone or high phosphate fertilizer. Cornus sericea (red twig and yellow twig dogwoods). Cotoneaster, Daphne, Forsythia, Paeonia, Rhododendron, Spiraea and Viburnum. Perennials Fertilize Clematis with (5-10-10), Siberian Iris (Osmocote 14-14-14), Catmint and Veronica (Osmocote). If you have containers that are not being used in the winter, turn them over to keep them from collecting water that could freeze and crack the container. Gardening for Birds in Heritage Hunt - Birds in the garden add a pleasing dimension of nature to our lives. Birds will most likely visit gardens that provide food, water, cover and nesting areas. It is best to provide some aspect of each component to diversify the habitat and attract a variety of birds to your garden. The Heritage Horn • February 2015 Heritage Hunt Golf & Country Club: www.heritagehunt.net Little Bit of Dirt Food- To entice birds to your garden, plant a variety of trees and shrubs that provide food in the form of fruits and seeds. Cardinals, finches, bluejays, and chickadees prefer black oil sunflower seeds where Goldfinches and juncos prefer thistly. Woodpeckers and nuthatches are attracted by suet. Many ground feeding birds, like sparrow and doves, juncos and tohees enjoy a mixture of seed that includes white millet, safflower, peanut hearts, cracked corn and sunflower. Water- Introducing a water source such as adding a birdbath, a moving water falls, a fountain or small pond. Birds are attracted to the sound of running water. Cover- Providing cover can best be achieved by planting various heights of vegetation. Do not plant vegetation under birdfeeders as predators can hide a take unknowing birds by surprise. Consult with a local garden center for recommendations of plants, trees, ground covers, vines and perennials to attract birds Nesting Areas- Planting a variety of plants can provide many places for birds to nest. Mockingbirds, catbirds, and brown thrashers prefer thickets of vegetation to better conceal their nests. Cardinals, wood thrushes, and robins prefer thick shrubs and trees. Warblers, tenager, and hummingbirds prefer nesting in taller trees. Chickadees, wrens, bluebirds, and titmice prefer birdhouses, which come in many sizes and shapes and can be hung in trees or mounted on fence posts. Choose the type of birdhouse based on which bird you are trying to attract.

Each month a fellow Heritage Hunt resident shares professional experiences, hobbies and other areas of expertise with their neighbors. February 10 – “Our Local Little Theater Scene” - Heritage Hunt is fortunate to be surrounded by many great little theater groups. If you’re an avid theater patron (or just curious), Bets Knepley, founder of the HH Little Theater, will show that you can see a whole season of plays at one of local little theaters for the price of one ticket to the Kennedy Center. Plus she’ll introduce you to many aspects in the unusual world of the theater. Then you’ll know “who, what and why is behind that curtain.” Bets has earned her “chops” in all facets of little theater and is happy to have this opportunity to share one of her passions. Bets is a longtime resident of HH and involved in many HH organizations. This program is her final HH contribution, as she’s moving back to her home state in May.

The Heritage Horn • February 2015 Heritage Hunt Golf & Country Club: www.heritagehunt.net Neighbor 2 Neighbor Update By now some of are probably wondering “What’s going on with the Neighbor 2 Neighbor (N2N) project?” Over the last couple of months the project organizers have met several times to formulate the organization and begin offering transportation and resource referrals for residents in need. During those meetings we discussed two issues that needed to be resolved: liability and assessment of who actually is in need within the community. First, the project has to address the liability coverage that protects our community volunteers as they serve their fellow neighbors. Volunteer drivers must be currently covered by their own policy and when operating as a part of the N2N project additional liability coverage is encouraged. In addition, it has been encouraged to have the organization’s officers carry a special Directors and Officers liability coverage. Another recommendation was to have volunteer agree to DMV and background checks. All of these additional measures means an expense that in turn would incur an annual fee to those participating in the program. The second issue pertains to accurately assessing how many and what type of needs the community has and can be served by the N2N volunteer force. Some of the parameters to be explored that participants would have to adhere to are limiting transportation service to certain geographic boundaries, signing a wavier of liability and possessing certain physical/mobility capabilities. Our challenge is we do not know how many residents truly need transportation service for things like medical or grocery visits. In checking several existing “villages,” we learned those that are a part of a larger organization such as a local government no annual fee was charged. However, those “villages” that are independent and/or smaller in size typically carried an annual fee that run upwards of $900 per year. So it appears that unless we can overcome these two issues the N2N project will have to be put on the shelf for the immediate future. However, we want to hear from you and ask those that have a last name beginning with A-M to please contact Mike Brown at goneashore2@yahoo.com and those with a last name begining with N-Z should contact Jim Hannon at ridgerunner10@comcast.net. Either way we want to encourage all residents to continue to be a kind and dependable neighbor to each other as there may come a time you might just need them to help you.

The concern raised is on the proposed Dominion Power power lines routes with one of the proposed routes running through the community. Besides the unsightly look it could add to Heritage Hunt residents are concerned about the possible impact on property values and resident health. After several dozen attended the Town Hall on January 12 at Battlefield High School it was clear that not just Heritage Hunt residents had the same concern. Several hundred people from neighboring communities also expressed their concern with having the new power lines run through their communities. They along with local delegate, Bob Marshall, and county supervisor, Pete Candland, voiced that an underground option along I-66 would be a better alternative. Heritage Hunt HOA’s new Board president, Ken Aitchison, stood and expressed concern on behalf of the community. The following week, at the January Board meeting, the Board of Directors agreed to give a donation to the Coalition to Protect PWC to help fight against the proposed routes running through Heritage Hunt and neighboring communities. The coalition is a collaboration of residents from surrounding communities that attend, voice and communicate updates on this volatile project. They were responsible for organizing a bus trip to Richmond on January 28 where several HH residents and others visited with state representatives to express their concerns. As this project continues to develop your Board of Directors and Association staff are committed to keeping the community informed through the website and e-mail communication.

Comprehensive Eye Exams Cataract Surgery - Both traditional & multifocal lenses Emergency Care Laser Vision Correction Diabetic Eye Disease Glaucoma Corneal Disease The walk down the entrance hallway at the Gainesville Health and Rehabilitation Center took on a new look shortly before Christmas, after many members of the Heritage Hunt Photography Club and the Heritage Hunt Fine Arts Group, each, donated framed photographs and paintings from their private collections as a gift to the Center. The wide range of subjects reflects the travels and interests of the artists and photographers. Residents and visitors to the Gainesville Health and Rehabilitation Center will be treated to colorful scenes from nature, including landscapes and seascapes; pets, animals in the wild, and journeys to memorable locations throughout the United States and Europe including Paris and other exotic spots. The gift of photography and paintings is in response to the Health and Rehabilitation Center’s search for ways to enhance its appearance for the residents and visitors. Photography Club and Fine Arts Group member, Janet Garney, learning of that interest, organized a community service project for both clubs to present a gallery of images to the Center. Photography Club member Travis Hall, matted and framed each of the photographs and along with photographer, Al Ruhl, hung each of the framed prints throughout the Center in the main hallway plus two living rooms and a private dining room for the families of residents. With service to the community as part of the Club’s Mission, Photography Club President, Sarah Skerker commented, “it warms your heart to know that this project can bring such joy and happiness to others. Sharing our club members’ art with the community isn’t just a joy, it’s an honor.” A picture is a poem without words. Horace Lynn McIntosh ALAN C. EGGE, MD | CHARLES C. HOGGE, MD JENNIFER H.

Fluent in Spanish Dr. Cristina Trypanis DPT MSPT I’m back. n. We’re ope I’m here! The HH Hams club is a recent addition to the roster of organizations that keep Heritage Hunt residents active and connected to the community. Our hams are both hobbyists and emergency volunteers. We support the HH Emergency Planning Group during our community annual emergency exercise and are available to support the community whenever communications services are needed. When not involved in emergency drills, our members enjoy getting on the air and communicating with other hams around the world, learning about new radio technologies, or simply building friendships through club meetings and our Saturday morning chats on the air. Hams are licensed through the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to operate radio equipment on specific bands of frequencies. Our club has helped six residents recently get their ham licenses and is helping several other HH residents towards that goal through classes conducted by Tim Tatum (K6SLK) and Steve Crouch (KI4SA). Amateur radio is a public service that supports local, regional and national authorities. Oftentimes hams are the only ones able to provide long distance communications from a crisis zone. Many hams are also active in the National Traffic System (NTS), a network of stations that move health and welfare messages across the nation. Many HH residents have also seen hams in action, as part of the Military Auxiliary Radio System (MARS) that enabled them to contact loved ones at home while they were serving in our armed forces overseas. HH Hams meet every third Thursday evening, 7:00 PM at the Marsh Mansion. Our meetings feature programs presented by club members and guests from outside the community. Recently, John Zorger (WA1STU) who lives near us gave a presentation on the National Traffic System and explained how amateur radio nets across the nation are interconnected to transmit and deliver messages. All residents are invited to attend. You do not need to have a ham license; only a curiosity about what ham radio is about.

A plant whose virtues have never been discovered.” Ralph Waldo Emerson Our February 26 meeting (10 AM) will feature renowned gardening expert David Roos, who might well have coined the above phrase himself. David is a favorite amongst gardeners and garden clubs alike! He inherited his gardening and other lifelong passions from both sides of his family. He has a gardening design and consulting practice, worked in nurseries, wrote a newspaper column and gives garden lectures. He has received his design training at the New York Botanical Garden’s Landscape Design certificate program in New York City. Mr. Roos’ gardening philosophy emphasizes a hands-on approach and common sense practicality. Known for his strident views, Mr. Roos favors the elimination of Latin terminology, petrochemicals, whitetailed deer and mechanized equipment from the garden. Many of you may have heard Mr. Roos speak before, and can attest to his charming, gregarious style. Those of you who have not, are in for a treat indeed! Come join us at 10 AM in the Marsh Mansion Living Room and hear what David has to say about pruning, primping, planting and preparing your Spring garden. There will be a Q&A time after the talk.

This overlook with tremendous views closed for an indefinite period of recovery and restoration in mid-January and we wanted one last hike to the top. The duration of the closure depends on the rate of recovery. It was worth hiking on the snow packed trails! The snow on the mountains gave a different perspective when viewing the mountains and valleys from the rocky cliff area. The lower trails remain open for hiking, so we are sure to explore them in the spring. We are planning to do impromptu hikes on Wednesdays or Friday’s throughout the winter months depending on weather conditions. To be added to the HH Hiking Club email contact list please email Margi Worrest at mbworrest@gmail. com. This will keep you informed of when and where we plan to hike as well as cancellations due to weather issues. For more information, call Margi Worrest at 703-743-5023 or Barbara Holt at 703-743-5474.

Four riders took the long round trip (~45 miles) by beginning in Vienna and six took the shorter round trip (~30 miles) by beginning at Bon Air Park. It was reported, but not confirmed, that due to a lack of snow, Santa rode in on a bicycle on Christmas day. About half a dozen “polar bears” braved the cold and wind to ride out 2014 on December 31st and ride in 2015 on January 1st. Lower temperatures, wind, and holiday activities kept cycling activity in December and January light and sporadic; however, even on days when the temperature was below freezing and the wind was blowing hard, a few hardy folks (polar bears) continued to ride and got in rides of 20 - 30+ miles in the local area. The funny thing is that the women seem to be putting the men to shame. For example, January 5th the temperature at 9:00 was around 30 degrees and the wind was blowing 25mph, with gusts to 30mph, making the “feels like” temperature around 25 degrees. Who shows up to ride? Three women and one man. The four of them rode 26 miles that day while others excused themselves due to the wind to stay home or go to the gym. Things that make riding in colder and windy weather tolerable include: helmet covers (you can make one by simply taking the visor off, slipping a bowl cover over the helmet, and reattaching the visor), head coverings (including balaclavas (ski masks) and other types of caps), multiple layers of breathable clothing, breathable jackets, pants with wind barriers on the front like ski pants, heavy wool socks, shoe covers, warm (ski type) gloves or mittens that fit loosely so air can flow (some like to use a very thin pair of gloves and put loose fitting ski gloves over them), and little warming packets to slip in shoes and gloves. Many folks tend to overdress and begin to sweat after 10-15 minutes of riding. It is better to start off feeling just a little cold and warm as you ride. The alternative is to start all bundled up and remove layers as you go. Some believe the best way to enjoy winter cycling is to go to Florida for 2-3 months. Currently, the Cycling Club is meeting every Monday – Friday at 9 AM at the Marsh Mansion. Persons wishing to get on the HH Cycling Club email list may do so by emailing Bob Shannon at trebor927@gmail.com. Being on the list will allow you to know when weather conditions are considered too severe to ride locally or when the club is going to take a special ride away from HH, like riding the W&OD trail. On Tuesdays the Club conducts a leisurely ride lasting 60 minutes, over mostly level terrain, that stops at the DeJa Brew coffee shop in Dominion Valley for coffee and chit chat, and then rides back to Heritage Hunt.

Now entering its sixth year, bocce has grown dramatically every year. The reason is simple. People love it. Our second court has proven to be a valuable asset as it’s frequently used. Matches will take place on Saturday mornings starting March 28th and ending in June, culminating in a championship that would be covered on ESPN, if they knew what they were doing. You only need one hour each Saturday morning to play. Teams will be made of five or six people including a captain. Teams have fun names and some even have mascots. Standings are kept and distributed weekly. The league culminates in a playoff in which the leading teams go at each other battling for the coveted trophies and accompanying glory. After it’s all over, we have an awards dinner. We also have an active social committee with events designed to maintain friendships over the full year. If you are interested in joining the league, or have questions, please e-mail Dave Leveton at dleveton@gmail.com. No email? Call me at 2545. For new players, I will conduct training sessions so you can easily learn the game before league play starts. Bocce is fun, easy-to-learn, and social. You don’t need prior experience. You don’t need to be in good physical condition. You can learn the game in ten minutes. You don’t have to be there every week. You don’t have to travel as the bocce court is right in front of the Marsh Mansion. It’s OK if you cannot make all the games. We know people have other commitments. You can be part of the team that defeats reigning champions Baci Grandi. You just need a desire to have fun, meet new friends, and be able to roll a ball with some degree of accuracy. Not sure? Don’t believe me? Ask anyone of your friends or neighbors who are part of this and I’ll bet they will encourage you to participate. One other thing. Due to the increasing number of people who participate each year, I may have to have a cutoff. New members will be added in the order they respond. Others will be placed on a waiting list. So hurry and join.

The mission of our Wine Chapter follows the guidelines of The American Wine Society which were established for the appreciation and education of wine while supporting the wine industry. Our February meeting promises to embrace this mission. Our guest presenter, Antoinette Landragin of Cork & Fork in Gainesville’s Atlas Walk, will share her expertise in selection and enjoyment of quality wines priced at $20 and below. The Landragin family history in wine making dates back to the late 1700’s and has come full circle in the operation of their three local retail wine/food/beer shops. Noted for their weekly wine tastings and wine education classes, Cork & Fork has become the “Go To” location for exceptional wines at reasonable prices for the local consumer. Antoinette has been a constant source of support to our chapter by connecting us with contacts within the wine industry who frequently present at our monthly meetings. She further supports our club by allowing us to order and purchase wines through Cork & Fork which ensures we will have a stellar experience with high quality wines to taste and enjoy at our meetings. For a $20/pp tasting fee please join us for social wines, the tasting of three white and three red wines, paired snacks and the chance to win prizes.

My name is Lisa and I am an instructor here at HH. I’d like to take this opportunity to highlight one of my class formats: step aerobics! I’m a AFAA certified, with over 20 yrs of teaching experience. I love what I do, and step is one of my favorite formats. Not only does it promote functional fitness, it tones and strengthens the lower body while burning calories. It’s a great alternative to the faster tempo, traditional aerobicsplus, it’s just plain fun! I often hear those that have never tried step say “Oh, I can’t do step!” YES, you CAN! Everyone can learn the basics! (I am happy to work with anyone who is uncomfortable outside of class, to help them get started or give a mini tutorial. Like anything new, it may take a time or two to get familiar with the cues). If you find stepping on a platform initially makes you uneasy, start on the floor. You can always progress to the step when you feel ready. I also hear “it will hurt my joints!” But consider how it started; Gin Miller was an injured instructor who got the idea while using stairs to rehab her knee! As with any exercise, certain moves may bother certain indications..I will help you modify accordingly. We step Monday and Thursday at 6 PM. The class is an hour and we combine upper body strength and abdominal exercises to balance out the workout. Please consider giving it a try! I’d love to work with you! And remember, the first class is FREE! Lisa Moscatello-Hartung, HH Fitness Instructor Yoga is for Everyone We will be adding a new yoga class in February! This new class, called Gentle Yoga, is a yoga class designed to meet the various needs of the over 55 community. The class will take place Wednesday mornings from 10:15-11:15 AM in the clubhouse ballroom. If you’ve been worried about joining the current yoga class because of its pace or you are unsure of your stability in standing positions or you’ve just never done it before and don’t want to be the only newbie in the class, then this class is perfect for you. It will also be a great place for those who are recovering from injury, surgery, or suffer from chronic pain. You will enjoy traditional yoga postures focusing on the fundamentals including; posture, alignment, breath, meditation and relaxation techniques. You may have heard that yoga increases strength, flexibility, range of motion, balance, improves focus and reduces stress, but did you know that it also helps improve sleep quality, blood sugar control, blood pressure, digestion, enhance respiratory function, alleviates arthritis pain, increases bone density and helps moderate chronic pain? Yoga has so many wellness benefits. It’s not a question about whether one should practice it or not, but which kind of practice is right for you? Asanas (poses) in this class are adapted to the individual and can be done standing OR seated in a chair. Yoga is for everyone! Please bring a yoga mat, beach towel or throw blanket, a block, and strap if you have one. Also don’t forget to wear comfortable clothing that you can move in. Stay healthy and hope to see you soon at Gentle Yoga.
