The Club holds its own doubles version of Wimbledon the weekend of July 20th when the annual Member-Guest is held. If you are not a participant, plan on stopping by for an adult beverage and viewing some great matches.

Happy Independence Day

Jim Grady, CCMGeneral Manager

June passed in a blink of an eye, but there is plenty of summer left for fun and activities around the Club.

July is going to be a busy month.

This is one of those years where July 4th falls right in the middle of the week. It is difficult to travel or schedule an out of town celebration for the forth with “work” days on both sides of the holiday. We are very fortunate to have the Club minutes from our homes and light years away from the daily grind. Avoid the traffic nightmares at the beach or at the bridge tunnel; just cross the Hampton Blvd Bridge and all the ingredients for a great holiday is in sight. The Entertainment Committee, Jim and his staff have been busy and have planned a fun day.

A host of activities are planned at the pool and the day will be capped off with an outside cookout and buffet and the band Cooling Out playing into the evening. Hopefully everybody will come and enjoy the activities.

There is plenty of entertainment planned for July to get outside and enjoy the warm weather and water views. Each Friday, TGIF will be at the pool, weather permitting. Live

entertainment includes a band on July 6th, 13th and 20th. TGIF closes July with a DJ on July 27th. Put these dates on your calendar.

We have added two new paddle boards to our inventory of water toys. They are due to arrive in late June. Check them out through the fitness center and explore the waters around the club. Our water toys include multiple kayaks, paddle boards and small one or two person sailboats.

The junior activities are in full swing. Drive cautiously around the Club. Our future members are running around between the tennis courts, pool and waterfront.

The swim team has exploded. The Sea Dragons have the largest team in many years. We have over 125 swimmers ready to tear up the pool and the competition.

Junior Sailing is underway. We have a great staff and over 60 young sailors ready to tame the waters of the Elizabeth River. Come out to the Wednesday night regattas and watch the races from the new second floor terrace.

The summer tennis clinics and junior teams are filling up and a lot of matches are being played. Our future junior tennis stars are working hard to represent the NYCC.

The new membership drive is going well. Let Us Go 4th in

CelebrationThe festivities commemorating America’s birthday get started in the afternoon with fun and games at the pool for

children. The traditional Beer Toss contest, where some of our members charge off the diving board and attempt to catch a bottle of beer in one hand, will get underway around 6 p.m.

The evening cookout at the pool will also feature barbecue baby back ribs, smoked brisket, Southern fried chicken and grilled marinated tuna along with baked beans, corn on the cob, potato salad, coleslaw and dessert. Buffet is just $18++ adults and $10++ children 12 and under. There will be live music by the band “Coolin’ Out” from 4-8 p.m.

Exercise your patriotic duty and come on out for a great time.

The Board would like to thank all of the club members for bringing in a great group of new members. During the first six months of the year, we have added 67 new members, including Family, Senior, Service and Intermediate memberships. This has been the largest growth of members in the history of the NYCC. Please welcome the new members to the NYCC family.

See you around the Club.

around the Club

The Gourmet TruckThe truck rolls in once every three months, laden with exotic foods. English peas, black radishes, rhubarb from Holland, rambuka from Asia.

It’s the Coastal Sunbelt Produce “Gourmet Truck” bringing NYCC chef Marty Riddle “things you just can’t get anywhere.”

When the refrigerated truck, which Sunbelt’s corporate chef Martin Saylor calls “a rolling showroom,” arrives, Chef Marty and his crew clamor aboard to explore what they are going to select.

It’s delivered the next day as part of the daily delivery Sunbelt, located in Savage, Maryland, makes to the club. In all, Sunbelt operates 22 trucks and travels as far as the Outer Banks. On this visit, Saylor’s “Gourmet Truck”

comes bearing marbleized potatoes, Monstercots (a humongous, hybrid apricot), lichee nuts, quince, quail eggs and something called “graffiti eggplant,” to mention a few items.

Think if you’ve seen one tomato and one pepper you’ve seen them all? The Gourmet Truck features 20 different kinds of tomatoes and 10 varieties of pepper.

Saylor takes our NYCC team on a “guided tour,” providing running commentary. “Wow. Look at these beauties,” he says.Chef Marty loves the quarterly visit from the truck.

“It provides us a great opportunity to expand our menu and introduce different foods to our members,” he says. “We also can create dishes

She Rules the PoolIt’s a wonder swimming instructor Meredith Young isn’t permanently water logged. She spends more than15 hours a week in the club’s indoor and outdoor pools.

She gives private and group lessons to youngsters and adults, teaches the four-month long Stroke of the Month class, puts on clinics and helps mothers and babies bond and learn water safety in Mommy and Me class.

If that wasn’t enough, she has recently added “Off the Wall,” classes to teach youngsters how to dive, and synchronized swimming to her growing list of instruction.

Meredith, a high school swimmer in her days at Maury, came to the club almost four years ago to “fillin” giving some lessons.

I never thought it would turn into all these classes year round,” she said. “But I got so much encouragement from Jenn (Jennifer Holzhausen, our Fitness Director) and she gave me the opportunity to offer great experiences for everyone at the Norfolk Yacht and Country Club, so we just kept adding classes. It’s been a lot of fun.”

Those who have taken her classes say she can teach any thing just this side of a rock how to

swim. Her swim clinics often have a waiting list of people wanting to join in.

“I’ve had my challenges,” she says, laughing. They’ve ranged from adults who have never been in the water to youngsters who are absolutely fearless.

Meredith says the key to being a good instructor is building trust and giving clear, specific instruction, no matter what age you are teaching. And loving what you do.

“There is nothing I enjoy more than teaching,” she said. “Seeing someone’s face light up at their sense of accomplishment is hard to beat. My goal is to give a person something they can do for a lifetime and that’s a great feeling.”

She tries to make her classes and clinics “interesting” and “interactive” for the age and skill she is working with.

“I want you to have a goodtime while you are learning. It’s got to be fun for both of us.”

Meredith, who just turned 32, is as busy on

land as she is in the water. While working at the club this past spring, she was also taking a full load of classes at Old Dominion while earning her Master’s degree in K-6 Education and completing her practice teaching.

She hopes to find a position that will involve teaching both in the classroom and pool.

But she promises not to go off and leave us high – and dry.

“I couldn’t ever imagine leaving here,” she says. “I’ll always stay connected to the club, even if it is just in the summer. Working here has been one of my greatest joys.”

for special occasions.”

It all adds up to making the club one of the best and most creative dining experiences in Hampton Roads. Wonder if the Gourmet Truck makes house calls?

The Boys of Summer Touch ‘Em All

Five years ago, Hervey Trimyer and his baseball buddies made a vow to attend a major league game in all 30 stadiums. Mission accomplished. They completed the circuit last month at Safeco Field, home of the Seattle Mariners, where they broke out champagne and had their picture taken with team mascot, the Mariner Moose.

The last leg of the journey started with a game at the Houston Astros’ Minute Maid Park. Then, it was on to Arlington, Texas, to catch the Rangers against Oakland. Coors Field in

Denver made it 29 down and one stadium to go.

It added up to thousands of miles, hundreds of innings and beers and a ton of memories for club member Hervey and The Boys – Dick Fraim, Wayne Parks and Pete Keilty.

The “tour” began in 2008 in Baltimore, where they saw then-Red Sox Manny Ramirez blast No. 500. Other highlights were taking in Tim Lincecum’s 15-strikeout performance in San Francisco and a wild and woolly 14-13 Oakland win over Minnesota.

Along the way, they visited the Rock ‘N’ Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, the Louisville Slugger factory in Kentucky, the NFL Hall of Fame, many tourist sights, and laid down a few bob at Del Mar Race Track in California.

They had a near miss with a guy in a different kind of uniform than a baseball uniform,

when a police officer hailed them after Parks blew through a stop sign (“With the cop sitting right at the corner,” said Hervey) on the way to a game at Atlanta’s Turner Field.

In addition to making a lot of new friends, they also met a lot of old ones. Seems Hervey knows a Norfolk friend or Old Dominion buddy in every city.

Arizona, San Francisco, Washington, Philadelphia, Milwaukee and Minnesota were their favorite parks. But nothing matched the sense of history they felt at the old Yankee Stadium and Wrigley Field in Chicago.

Their favorite post-game watering holes were Harry Carey’s in Chicago, Shula’s in Fort Lauderdale and Pittsburgh’s Georgetown Inn. Asked if there is anything more on their sports “bucket list,” Hervey said, “Well, Dickie has mentioned something about playing golf in all 50 states.”

They’ve Got Their Ducks in a RowSpencer and Clay Tinkham have taken literally the advice that young people should “carve out” a reputation of their own. The brothers are world class duck decoy carvers.

Spencer, a rising sophomore at Baylor University in Texas, is a two-time world youth champion and the winner of more than 500 ribbons in national competitions. Younger brother Clay, a junior-to-be at Norfolk Collegiate, is a four-time youth champion. A few years ago, the brothers started their own business, Dead Eye Decoys. Collectors and hunters have flocked to get a “Tinkham original.”

“We’ve got an 18-month waiting list,” said Spencer, who said a commissioned work can cost as much as $2,000. “It’s really been amazing. It’s pretty neat to have a successful business in these times.”

It all started when Spencer began carving ducks as an 8-year-old.

“My dad would take us out duck hunting,” said Spencer. “I loved nature and always liked to whittle. I was hooked.”

Clay followed in big brother’s foot steps.

“At first, I was like Spencer’s assistant, getting stuff,” said Clay. “I’d sand some of his decoys. Then, I started carving on my own.”

The boys are the sons of Jeff and Denise Tinkham and live in the Algonquin area of Norfolk. Making ducks is hardly duck soup. There’s research, creating a template, making sketches, hours of delicate painting and making sure every detail is right.

The ducks don’t only have to look like ducks. They have to act like ducks. A competition duck decoy has to float, be able to right itself if turned over and mirror all the qualities of the species.

The boys, who have carved almost every North American duck, turn out their ducks in a work shop next to the house, where several dozen ducks are in process.

In the Duck Room in the family’s house, a whole case is filled with some of their winning ducks – a red breasted Merganser, a bufflehead drake – and an intricate carving of a miniature duck, 4-inches long.

For Spencer, carving is a great stress reliever and way to let his “creativity flow.” Clay loves the competitive element of carving, pitting his best against the field.

“I can’t imagine not carving and doing this on some level,” said Spencer, who is studying pre-med and plans to be a physician.

“Yeah,” said Clay, “I think this is something we will always do no matter where our careers take us.”

YaChtingClean the Bay Day

NYCC volunteers hauled 1,113 pounds of trash and debris from the Lafayette River shorelines on Clean the Bay Day, June 2.That’s a lot of junk but it is less than last year’s haul. It continues the downward trend of the past several years and is a hopeful sign that we are making a difference.

As usual, this year’s haul produced a couple of strange items, a bottle with a message inside and a skull a of raccoon!

Thanks to all 21 NYCC members who donated their time and energy to such a worthy project.

Get AboardThe U.S. Coast Guard’s new Rescue 21 System is here. The system will automatically receive your distress call, including vessel and owner information and your latitude and longitude, and respond to your alert.

You need to sign up to get this added security feature. It costs nothing and will give you added peace of mind. A limited number of brochures detailing how to sign up are available at the Dock House. Contact Dino to get your copy.

The Club will be offering a safe boating course in conjunction with Coast Guard Auxiliary Flotilla 54. The dates for the three-day course are July 30, 31 and August 2.

The requirement, enacted by a Virginia General Assembly law in 2007, is phased in over several years.

By July 1, 2012, all PWC operators, regardless of age, and motorboat operators 30 years or younger shall meet the requirement. By July 1, 2013, the law will apply to motorboat operators 40 years or younger. Over the next two years, motorboat operators 45 and 50

Safe Boating Course Is a Mustor younger, respectively, will have to comply. By July 1, 2016, all motorboat operators, regardless of age, shall meet the requirements.

Boaters will learn about trailering, launching, boat maintenance, safety equipment, navigation rules, what to do in emergencies and much more. Cost is $35.00. The course will run 6:30-10 p.m. Monday and 7-10 p.m. on Tuesday and Thursday, with one-hour on Thursday, August 2, for the test. Class meets in the Youth Activities Room.

“On the Spot”Sports Massages

Marie Owens, our masseuse with the “Magic Fingers” will be on-site at several events to help get athletes limbered up or to help those who’ve suffered injury or cramping get back in the game.

Look for Marie at the July 7 and 14 home swim meets and the July 20-22 Member-Guest tennis tournament.

She will also be available for a pre-event massage to loosen tight muscles or to soothe those tired muscles after competing. “On the Spot” Massages are on a walk-in basis and the cost is calculated per minute.

Sports massages are also available through appointments.

A Tip from the TopOur tennis pro John Kreis offers this advice: Think of tennis as “doing what comes naturally.”

In simplest terms, when you play tennis, you’re really doing three things you’ve probably done quite often before -- even if you’ve never picked up a racquet.

Those three things? Running, throwing and catching. So if you’ve never tried tennis before, by thinking in those terms, you’ll have a head start on learning the game. If you play lots of tennis but have never thought of tennis like that before, give it a try!

Your service motion is almost identical to throwing a ball overhand like a quarterback or a baseball pitcher. Your ground strokes, too, are like throwing, only with an underhand motion, like a fast pitch softball.

Volleying is a catching skill. The biggest mistake I see that students make at the net is swinging at the volley. Just think “catch” when at the net.

For the very reasons mentioned above, tennis makes a great first sport for youngsters. One of the first things I do with young kids in class is develop their motor skills by running, throwing, catching, and kicking. This helps make a smooth transition to developing racquet skills.

So if you have little ones and want to give them a good foundation for any sport, start them with tennis. You’ll be surprised how quickly they develop into confident, coordinated youngsters. And once learned, these motor skills will never be forgotten.
