40 | OHCC LIVING | MARCH 2020 | Swim & Wellness Welcome to the Ocean Hills 2020 Swim, Surf and Wellness Club! Good news… the club membership has expanded significantly since 2019. For our Feb. 20 Happy Hour Party and meeting at 7 pm, Kory Ward, PhD focused on how physical activity helps prevent pre- diabetes, and inflammation in general, in combination with other healthy lifestyle factors. Club President, Lynne Condé, MSN, PHN presented information and food samples incorporating healthy carbohydrates, proteins and chromium-rich foods. These brief presentations were followed by a review of "water walking," commonly prescribed by local MDs, by Aquafit instructor Leesa Singer, who described the benefits of both deep and shallow water workouts. Dr. Alex Nakeff, our VP, who many of you may have met at our table at Do Dues Day, and panel members were available to answer questions on topics related to wellness, nutrition, swimming, and surfing. There was free happy-hour appetizers, cocktails, and prizes. Raffles, including a 50- 50 Raffle will also be offered. Want to join us for our surfing outings? Tim Pentel and Brendan Ward will be updating our Club webpages for dates of our regular local surf group outings. Questions? Contact Tim Pentel, expert OHCC surfer, at timpentel@yahoo.com. NOTE: Anyone interesting in serving on the 2020 events planning committee, please speak with one of the panel members at the upcoming meeting. Bocce Club Next Member Meeting: Thursday, May 7. Bank Shot tournament In January we had a tournament where only bank shots were allowed and it was a big success. More than 50 players showed up. Team captains were Skip Dunham, Steven Norton, Mike Chunka, Forrest Newburg, Jim Piercy, Carroll Darr, Gary Pelcher, Mike Stansell, and two others. Newburg's, Piercy's, and Chunka's teams all won both games. Newburg's team was in 1st place because they allowed the least points from their opposition. Bocce BBQs: The following are the dates for the summer Bocce BBQ's. All start at 3 pm. Bring your own main entree to BBQ and something to share- May 24, June 14, July 19, Aug. 16, and Sept. 20. (Note May date change). Bocce Buddies: Three more Bocce Buddies events are set for 2020 on the following Mondays at 10 am on Bocce Court One. April 20, July 20, Oct. 19. This is a great opportunity for any new or semi new players to learn rules and procedures of Bocce. The January Bocce Buddies event had a fantastic turnout with over 50 new members attending. Mike Chunka covered the numerous social events and activities we have scheduled for the rest of the year, as well as the rules of the game, tips on how to throw the ball, how points are gained, the purpose of the paddle person, and how to measure and determine which ball is closest to the pallino. Also, the need to put back the equipment and sweep down the courts after they are finished playing. He also let them play a very abbreviated game only to six points in order for them to actually get a feel for the courts and how to apply the rules. Good Sportsmanship: Any time all the courts are full and people are waiting, the losing teams of the 1st games should leave the courts to allow those waiting to play the 2nd games. They can play if there is still space and there are no more waiting players. Bocce Rule: Only bocce's made during Club scheduled events are to be counted and listed on the bocce sheets in the glass case. Names must be printed clearly or they will not be counted!!
