PAST AND PRESENT

New Ye a r!
E d i t o r ’s N o t e
We all have achievements we can be proud of—big or small, they can be remembered
for years, or simply provide momentary satisfaction. In this issue we have examples
of both types. Our main feature presents women members of Hunters Run who broke
the “glass ceiling” in different ways. These were important accomplishments at the
time. Today, we applaud those members who gathered 400 recipes into a cookbook,
with proceeds to benefit a local charity. We recognize how one club continued to put
on virtual meetings on meaningful topics all year during the pandemic. We appreciate
photos of beautiful scenes throughout the club. And, we can’t ignore those who work OFFICERS AND BOARD
on puzzles with thousands of pieces…and can still find that last piece. That is quite an MEMBERS 2020-2021

These tantalizing recipes are a small sample of the more than 400
recipes featured in A TASTE OF HOME AT HUNTERS RUN, the new
cookbook organized by Rebecca Barth and Heidi Rubin. As we
go to press, over 600 cookbooks have already been sold, with all
profits going to the Adele Loeb & Les Nackman Meals on Wheels
program run by Ruth & Norman Rales Jewish Family Services.

Our Members Solve the Puzzle By Susan Braitman
Many of us have taken up jigsaw puzzles as a new hobby since the pandemic hit. Or, maybe it’s a hobby from our childhood that we
haven’t had time for in years. Not only is it relaxing, but it gives your brain a good workout. When doing a puzzle, you use both the right side
of the brain (for creative and intuitive thinking) and left side (for logical and linear thinking.) Jigsaw puzzles are said to be a great stress reliever
and help to improve short term memory. It is also said to help prevent Alzheimer’s and promote longevity. Members all agreed that working on
jigsaw puzzles is both challenging yet relaxing.
Many of us do not have the space to spread out and do
a large puzzle. In that case, you can consider getting
a puzzle board or table. This will allow you to pack
up your puzzle intact so that you can use your dining
room table. Puzzle sorting trays are also available. You
may also want to preserve your puzzle when completed
with special glue and frames. For supplies, check out
www.bitsandpieces.com.
Barry and Sue Levy started doing crossword puzzles
when their son and daughter-in-law sent them a few
after the pandemic started. They began with 1000
-piece puzzles. Now they are up to 2000 pieces; and,
they put another leaf in their dining room table.
Doris Hirschhorn explains “One plus of the pandemic
was the chance to revisit something I liked to do as
a kid--putting together jigsaw puzzles. And, once I
started one, my husband Bob joined in. Since March
we have done at least six or seven 1000-pieces puzzles,
many from friends in Hunters Run who we found out
also loved to do jigsaw puzzles. We’ve shared puzzles WOHL FAMILY 80th Birthday Party Celebration for Marty, July 2018
with other Hunters Run friends.… we set up each puzzle 1,000 pieces by the Wohl family
on a table on our enclosed terrace. If we need to use the
table before the puzzle is done, no problem. We
use a Jigsaw Puzzle Roll Up Mat we bought at
Barnes & Noble. It’s amazing. You roll up the
puzzle, secure it with Velcro bands. When you
unroll, the pieces are exactly the way we left
them.”
Members have been sharing puzzles among
themselves. You can find many different
subjects for puzzles - including abstract art,
famous works of art, landscapes, sports, and
many more. You can find puzzles online as
well at retail outlets, such as Barnes & Noble,
Hallmark stores, and Costco.
Hopefully when the pandemic is over, we
will be able to set up a puzzle exchange for
members.

More Hidden Gems
By Susan Braitman
As I walk in front of the condos in Stratford and Westgate,
I peek onto the front patios looking for some delightful
treasures. My favorite is this duck which has taken up
residence in a corner of a front patio. It is sitting on a nest
of 19 eggs. According to the residents of this condo, this
is the second year that this duck has arrived. The nest is
covered in duck feathers that the duck pulled off her own
stomach in order to camouflage the nest. That way, she
can leave the nest to look for food.

Hunters Run Women Paving The Way
By Judie Spinner
“Giving women opportunities to shine,” said JOAN LONDON, “was important to
me in all my management positions in education, especially as Acting and
Assistant Superintendent of Schools in Berkeley Heights, New Jersey.” Early
on, Joan saw the need to recognize, identify, encourage and support women
to go up the ranks in a mostly male-dominated management environment.
Mentoring women was her focus and resulted in a number of her proteges’
success in achieving high-ranking leadership positions.
Today, Joan is a key member of a group of retired women educators who
are still finding ways of helping women—including providing scholarships
for those returning to work.
“Giving women opportunities to shine ... was important to me...”
It took over 100 years for the Stamford Yacht Club to ask a woman to serve
on their Board. That woman was DIANE MARTIN-TRYHANE. Diane was
instrumental in changing time-and tradition-honored policies including when
women could play tennis at the club. The thinking was that as only men
worked, they alone should be allowed to play on weekend mornings. She
started the first summer swimming and tennis program for children ages four
to seven so that the younger ones would develop these interests at an early
age and also be introduced to the world of sailing.
Diane’s non-traditional career started at one
of the then “Big Eight” accounting firms.
She opened and grew a successful public
accounting practice, expanded, took on partners and eventually sold it in 2013. She loved the business and
thrived in what at the time was considered a man’s world.

the marketing department, her career rise
was extraordinarily slow. She was involved
with major campaigns for such companies
as Canon, B.J.’s, and Marriott, but still had
to battle her way up the corporate ladder.
She had to strategize to earn competitive
compensation in a predominately male
environment. Barbara was the first woman
to achieve the title of Senior Vice President
and upon her retirement, the women who
followed her adamantly acknowledged, “You paved the way for us!”
“...when she came from basketball practice ... to her
Education Admissions interview wearing pants,
the interviewer was completely shocked...”
In the sixties and seventies, pants were not considered appropriate for women
in the workplace or in public. So, when LORRIE FREEDMAN came from
basketball practice at City College (CCNY) to her Education Admissions
interview wearing pants, the interviewer was completely shocked. Although
firmly reprimanded, Lorrie was admitted to the program. As a swimmer, she
had already rebelled against wearing a skimpy, humiliatingly inappropriate
swimming suit, so had turned to playing basketball. She finally had to turn
down an invitation to be a guard on the women’s basketball team because,
once again, the uniform was unwearable.

JOAN GERSON GEDANSKY’s dad suggested she go to law school so
that she would have a professional career to sustain her financially...just
in case any future plans for married life did not work out. She applied and
was accepted at Villanova University Law School when only two women
had been enrolled in the prior entering class.
Joan started her job search as she neared graduation. She found out
at a job fair, as she peddled her resume at the booth of the Southeast
Pennsylvania Transportation Authority, (SEPTA), that they had just hired
12 attorneys and had filled all their openings.
Both fortunate and timely, as she walked away from the booth, Joan
heard, “I would have liked to be the one who hired our first female
attorney.” She rose to the challenge and made it happen. She spent
the next 38 years defending SEPTA from personal injury lawsuits and
establishing state-wide legal precedents. When Joan retired she was

golfers required to play one person to a cart, there was no room
for 18 hole tournaments. When all three golf courses opened

Now more than ever, Play for P.I.N.K. remains committed to raising money for breast
cancer research. This year has been a challenging time for everyone. While our events
this year may look a little different, we believe we can still run safe and enjoyable golf,
tennis and pickleball fundraisers.
The Hunters Run Turkey Trot Golf event was held on November 22. Included in this
year’s tournament was a Swing for P. I. N. K . fundraiser.
Thank you to our club members who generously donated $10 per swing to try and get a
golf ball into a small inflatable pool floating on a golf course lake. Lots of splashes, lots of
laughs, a few balls in the pools, but more importantly lots of money was raised...
$3,340. Wow!
We are so grateful for your continued dedication and generosity. Thank you to our
wonderful volunteers, the tournament committee and the Golf Staff. We couldn’t have
done it without you.

FROM THE COURT
By Dave Cordrey, Director of Tennis
On the Way to a
GREAT SEASON
I WANT TO WELCOME EVERYONE BACK DURING THESE TOUGH TIMES. The Pool
is running and our Intraclub leagues have begun. We had a little rocky start with the Covid-19
guidelines, but we made it through and are on the road to a great season. We have had over 180
people sign up for our tennis and pickleball leagues that play on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday,
and Saturday at 10:30 AM. I want to thank Mali for all her hard work putting schedules together,
making adjustments on the teams and to all my staff too, who help coordinate the leagues. Good
job. The schedule for the finals is:
January 13, 2021 Ladies Intraclub Championship
January 14, 2021 Men’s Intraclub Championship
January 16, 2021 Mixed Intraclub Championship
January 22, 2021 Pickleball Intraclub Championship
If you have recently arrived and are interested in participating in the leagues, please contact the
Tennis Shop. We can add players anytime. I want to thank all the captains who are representing
their teams and organizing them. You all have done such a good job.
Once we get through this first season and get through the growing pains, we are planning on
doing a second season starting in February. So, if you missed out on the first season, please plan on
signing up. Sign up online; registration is open now for the next league season starting February
3rd, 2021.
We are planning on playing the Club Championships. The dates for the Hunters Run Doubles

easy. There will not be intraclub league the weeks of the club championships.
Pickleball players, I know you are all used to just showing up and playing, but during this Covid
time, all members must reserve a court prior to playing pickleball. There can be no walk-ons…
everyone must be registered.
You can reserve a court by calling the Tennis Shop at 734-6657 or emailing the tennis desk at
tennistimes@huntersrun.net .
At this time, we cannot allow non-playing members to watch games from inside the pickleball
courts. However, you may watch from outside along the fence, making sure to stay six feet apart
from one another on the benches.
I want to thank everyone for working with us, but as a reminder, we still need you to wear your
masks to the courts and then put them back on when you leave. Please work on keeping six
feet apart at all times and stay safe

By Marilyn Ross
HR continues to offer Bridge Base Online (BBO) events using the name Best Clubs of
Palm Beach every Tuesday evening at 7 PM and Thursday, and Saturday at 12:30 PM.
You play 21 boards. The Virtual Number assigned is 202671. There is a fee of $5.00 per player
in each game. If you need help, email Hank Fuld at hrbridgecomm@aol.com.
ADDITIONAL BRIDGE ACTIVITY TO TRY - BBO INSTANT TOURNAMENT GAMES
Many of our bridge players continue to enjoy playing online bridge. I have now expanded my resources and besides playing my
regular games on BBO with my bridge friends, I have discovered Instant Tournaments where I can play a tournament anytime
and earn masterpoints without waiting for partners or opponents! How? I play against ROBOTS.
I choose to play in these ACBL Instant Tournament games with Masterpoints (MP) scoring (vs IMPS). When you start
an Instant Tournament, you will be dealt deals from a past tournament you have not played before and have your scores
compared against 14 players in those tourneys. If you do well, you receive BBO Points, as well as ACBL masterpoints. The cost
is $1.25 BB$ to play.
To play, log into BBO, look at the Featured Areas and click the Instant Tournaments link. Then check the Instant Tournament
ACBL MP (1.25 BB$) option. Click when you are ready. The link takes you to the registration box. Each tournament is 12
boards, and you must complete all 12 boards to be included on the leaderboards. Leaving or withdrawing from the tournament
in the middle of the game will count against your Tournament Completion Rate (TCR). There is no time limit for the tournament.
However, if you are idle for a long time, you will be disconnected from BBO and the game is forfeited.
This game is Best Hand - your hand will always
contain at least the same HCP as the next highest
HCP hand. It is also Human Declare - when North
wins the contract, South (you) will declare instead.
About the Robots
According to BBO, the robots used on BBO are called
GIB (Ginsberg’s Intelligent Bridgeplayer). GIB is widely
considered to be one of the best computer bridge
programs ever created. It is occasionally capable
of brilliance. It is also occasionally capable of some
really poor bids and plays (just like all human players.)
I find this to be very true. Some players may find it
frustrating if a particular robot partner plays especially
poorly (or if a particular robot opponent plays
especially well,) on a given hand, but, these things will
even themselves over time. I have found that, as BBO
states, “Sometimes the robot does something totally Marilyn playing the robot
crazy.” The more I play, the more proficient I become with the robots.
The GIBs used on BBO play a relatively simple and natural 2/1 bidding system. You can find out the meaning of any bid by
clicking on that bid as it appears in the bidding diagram. Furthermore, when it is your turn to bid, moving your mouse over
the buttons for the various possible bids will cause an explanation of the bid you are considering (as your GIB partner will
understand it,) to be displayed. These explanations can be somewhat cryptic but reading them carefully before you bid will
help you to avoid misunderstandings with your GIB partner.
The link to the robot convention card is found Under the Robot World link in Featured Areas.
Give it a try!!

MEMORABLE MEETINGS…VIRTUALLY ALL YEAR
By Doris Hirschhorn
The pandemic has created a huge challenge to the Special Interest Clubs Program but it didn’t deter the Yiddish and Jewish Culture
Club. With hard work and detailed planning, this club has managed to transition from monthly in person meetings to virtual programs
with great success.
Almost a year ago, on March 12, 2020, this club held its last live
event – a Purim Celebration. Approximately 90 people enjoyed
“Megillah On the Roof” - a Purim Shpiel based on Fiddler on the
Roof. With Creon Smith’s support and Graham Cordrey’s
technical assistance, The Palms was turned into a “theater.”
The play was directed by Charlie Gruber and produced by
Barbara Breslow. The cast included Len Pravda (Mordechai),
Renee Pravda (Esther), Charlie Gruber (The King), Harriet Harris,
(Vashti), Harry Rapaport (Haman), and Arline Isaacs (Zeresh)
with musical direction by Roy
Grover and Carol Lever. The
audience twirled groggers each
time Haman appeared, and when

received individually wrapped

A week later, when Covid-19 caused the Hunters Run Clubhouse
to close, the Yiddish Club Planning Committee quickly began Standing: Arline Isaacs, Harriet Harris, Harry Rapaport, Barbara Breslow, Charlie Gruber,

On April 4, 2020, the Planning Committee arranged for each Hunters Run
community to recognize
Israel Independence Day
between 5:00 PM and
5:15 PM. During those 15
minutes, volunteers slowly
drove around their own
communities waving Israeli
flags. Others stood outside
their homes, waving back
and making lots of noise
with pots and pans.
24 JANUARY/FEBRUARY 2021 Hunters Run Country ClubOn September 16, 2020, the Yiddish Club invited
all Hunters Run members to welcome in the New
Year on Zoom. The program included several
short video clips about Americanized Yiddish
words, favorite Jewish foods, a Rabbi’s view of
Rosh Hashanah, the Andrew Sisters singing Bei
Mir Bist Du Sheyn, and ending with Barbra
Streisand singing Avenu Malkeinu. Over 50 people
attended virtually and some even had a chance to
share with everyone their favorite Jewish food
and their New Year wishes.
On November 5, 2020, over 55 Hunters Run
members virtually attended another
successful program — “A Toast to Jewish
War Heroes.” The highlight of the event
was hearing from several Hunters Run
veterans about their experiences during the
time they served. Irwin Lebow, Howard
Greene, Lester Pedell, Marty Gayer, Harry
Rapaport, and Malya Scher had the
audience both laughing and crying as they
each told their story. The program ended
with the audience watching video clips of
Enrico Macias singing Hatikva and Kate
Smith singing God Bless America.
