Message from Membership The Club finished strong in 2014 with regards to member retention. Currently we still

have wait lists established in Recreation, Junior & Social Golf categories. 2014 also ended

with well-attended social events which included Gingerbread House Decorating, the Annual

Holiday Open House and Breakfast with Santa. Several new Club members used these as

an opportunity to meet fellow members while getting into the spirit of the holiday season.

The Membership Committee has planned a full Social Calendar for 2015 which will include

some events returning by popular demand. Take a look and please save the dates so that

you can enjoy the many social offerings that we have planned for your enjoyment.

Thank you for another fantastic year at The Woodlands and may the New Year bring joy

and happiness to you and your family.

Mary Anne

From the General Manager The recent completion of the Men’s Singles Championship in tennis marked the end of

Club Championships for 2014. As a result, I was able to order nameplates for all of the

2014 champion plaques located in the hall outside of the member dining room. I want to

offer a heartfelt congratulation to all of the Club champions this year! No matter what

sport you participated in, your victory was certainly the result of years of investment and

you overcame stiff competition from fellow members. While everyone undoubtedly has a

tale or two about their personal journey to the final, there are a couple of stories I would

like to highlight.

I begin by recognizing Dr. Mary Brandes, who in August won her 14th Women’s Club

Championship in golf, out of 24 total championships recorded--wow! That just stands on

its own. Moving to Tennis, I want to recognize a very talented family. Brian Mavor won

the Men’s Singles Championship that I referred to above, and it was his sixth such victory, to go along with two in

Men’s Doubles. The Woodlands titles are only a part of his very impressive tennis resume. I’m betting he has won

Mixed Doubles titles as well, but as I write this I don’t have that information. One title wasn’t enough for the

Mavor family however, as Brian’s daughter Lana, who is nationally ranked, won her first Women’s Singles

Championship recently. So, father and daughter hold the top two individual titles in tennis concurrently, but that’s

not all. The Mixed Doubles final featured yet another Mavor, as Brian and daughter Natalia took on Lana and Nick

Forrester. In this one, Lana and Nick prevailed. Finally, I want to note that Dad showed his political savvy by

bringing gifts for all competitors to the final, with a card that read “You are all champions!”

As I always do, I want to thank you very, very much on behalf of all the staff for your participation in the annual

employee holiday fund. They get the clear message that this is from you and they really appreciate it. I consider

2014 the best year for the Club in the almost 10 years I have been here, on several fronts. If 2015 brings similar

results and experiences it too will be a great year.

Until next month, we will see you around the Club,

Bill Robinson

Fitness

Total Approach Nutrition Program Combining Exercise with Nutrition

We work out hard and with a highly dedicated enthusiasm for success, but we don’t

always see the results we want. Sometimes we have an idea of what we need and

should eat, but are lacking something you just can’t put your finger on. This program

will help you maximize your nutrition and fitness to meet your personal goals.

Commit to a supervised plan to start your 2015 off to a healthy start with an 8 week

program. Focusing on both exercise and fitness will help you to achieve your

personal goals for weight and fitness.

Program includes:

Nutrition:

Initial nutrition consult with Kay Mullin RD,CDE to help get your nutrition plan in

place (1 hour). Weekly nutrition follow up via Skype, email or phone (15 min). This

includes targeted personalized eating plan, supplementation assessment and tracking

options, recipe and meal prep ideas, grocery recommendations, healthy dining out

ideas.

Exercise:

Personal Training Sessions with a Woodlands Club Personal Trainer.

Meet twice weekly with 30 minute sessions to improve your fitness, strength and

personal goals.

REMINDER:

Training Rate Increase Effective January 1, 2015, personal

training rates will increase slightly.

The new rates will be:

30 Minutes: $30.00

45 Minutes: $39.00

1 Hour: $49.00

From the Director of Fitness Happy New Year everybody!!! I hope you had the

greatest of holiday seasons and I hope the time you have

had with family and friends has been the best season

ever for you all.

A new year is upon us and with that comes new goals.

Whether it is a race you plan on doing, a vacation

planned, or to do more activities with the family,

exercise is the one constant that will allow you to enjoy

that time even more. If you need help, please let us

know by emailing me at [email protected] and

we can set you up with one of the trainers for a new program, weekly sessions

or even set you up in a class.

We still have plenty of room in many classes. If you need to hold yourself

accountable to your new years resolutions, then come on in and enjoy a class!!!

Please remember that Monday, December 29 and Tuesday, December

30 the Fitness Center will be closed due to the carpet being replaced.

I apologize greatly for any inconvenience.

Yours in health,

Damian

Exercising Etiquette

Having Gym Shoes

Changing to indoor shoes and not

wearing street shoes in the gym

during the winter months helps the

fitness center equipment stay clean

and live a healthy and happier life.

Banging and Dropping

Weights

Please refrain from banging and

dropping the weights in the fitness

center. More than the disruptive noise, it shortens the life of the

equipment considerably.

Picking Up Your Equipment

Please return the equipment you

use during your workouts to their

rightful place, be courteous of your

fellow members and help keep the

fitness center clean and functional.

Guests in the Fitness Center

Please sign in guests when using

the fitness, Racquetball, and Squash

facilities. Guests are allowed to

visit these facilities, combined a

total of five times per calendar

year.

BLAZE Vivid hop aromas, citrus, and

tropical fruits meld with pine and

spice. A touch of malt sweetness

finishing with a smooth yet crisp

bitterness. This is our marriage of

classic American hop flavors with

the fruity, spicy nature of our yeast.

Honoring the tradition of a Saison,

while exploring the spirit of the

American IPA, this farmhouse IPA

blazes its own path.

BRAINCHILD

Tasting Notes: Bright, aromatic,

racy and lively, mouth filling and

bursting with Mediterranean flare.

Relatively low in alcohol, but

medium in body, showing plenty richness of fruit. Refreshing and

distinctive. Very attractive tropical

fruit and savory notes; clean and

snappy on the finish, leaving a

pronounced mineral impression.

Golf

From the Director of Golf Would you like to make 2015 the year you really improve your golf game? We tend

to treat the golf learning process differently from other activities that require motor

skills.

Here are the accepted steps for motor learning for Baseball: Make the team. Go to scheduled

practices. Learn the basics- catching, hitting, throwing. Do drills so basics become second nature

Continue process throughout playing career.

Here are the accepted steps for motor learning for Music: Find a qualified instructor. Take

regular lessons. Learn the basics. Practice between lessons. Learn in a process from simple to

complex.

Here is how most of us attempt to learn Golf: Go to driving range with a friend who plays a little better than

you. From this person, take advice such as “keep your head down”, “keep your left arm straight”, “take the club

straight back and straight through.” Try out tips from your friends and the golf channel. Using your driver, hit hundreds

of balls to ingrain these habits.

Why do we deviate from a successful formula when it comes to golf? Doesn’t make much sense, does it?

If one of your resolutions for 2015 is to have more fun on the golf course, consider this version: Find an instructor

who is qualified and with whom you “click.” Take regular lessons. Learn the basics such as grip, aim, set up, swing path,

putting, chipping, centered club face contact. Do drills so that basics become second nature. Practice correctly

between lessons. Learn in a progression from simple to complex. Make improvement an ongoing process

Let our award winning professional staff help you make 2015 the year you have more fun (play better golf)!

Keep swinging!

Doug Van Wickler, PGA

January Golf Tip

This is a great time of year to focus on changes that will help during the warmer

months. Flexibility and Weight Training

We have a first class fitness staff here at The Woodlands. Take advantage of them!

Let them work with you to develop a personalized stretching and training routine.

This will pay off in added yards and increased stamina which means lower scores.

Keep Swinging

Tom Watson continues to amaze me with the high level of golf he has maintained

for years. When he is at his home in Kansas City, he swings a weighted club for five

minutes, twice a day. Keep those golf muscles active. A quick video analysis will

help to identify any swing changes necessary.

Putt, Putt, Putt

First, let our professional staff observe your stroke so that you practice positively

rather than groove a poor stroke. There are several good practice tools available

to aid in a repeatable putting stroke. All you need is your putter, some golf balls

and a carpet!

And finally, exercise your brain!

There is no shortage of golf instruction books. This winter is a great time to learn

about the mental aspect of golf. Take a look at the rules of golf too. It is sure to

save you some strokes!

GOLF SHOP WINTER SCHEDULE: CLOSED: January and February.

Reopening with normal business hours for the

2015 season on March 1.

If you require access to the golf shop during

this time, please call Doug Van Wickler on

his cell phone (749-2775). He will be happy

to open the golf shop for you or will arrange

for the club house staff to help you if he is

unavailable.

Members falling 60 days past due will receive a letter from the
