Presenting our Showcase of
CREATIVITY
in print and onlineE d i t o r ’s N o t e
IMAGINATION is an integral part of the creative process. Whatever the art form, the ability
to create involves seeing beyond the obvious and enables the artist, the sculptor, the
photographer, or the writer to envision a singular and new concept. For this special issue on
Creativity, more than 70 of your friends and neighbors have responded to our invitation and
submitted almost 200 works of art in various disciplines—each distinctive and the result
of their individual creative talents. We thank them for sharing their work with us in both this
magazine and our Online Magazine Gallery (OMG) addendum on the Hunters Run website.
We need everyone to imagine, too, as you explore this magazine and the OMG addendum. OFFICERS AND BOARD MEMBERS 2021-2022

“I just seem to get inspiration to create things all the
time. So when I came across a small photo of an old
steam engine, I thought, oh maybe, I’ll make a
train. Lots of tinkering, contemplating, with many
details. 99% of the wood came from an old crate
that my kitchen granite counter came it; the logs
came from a backyard tree that blew down in a
hurricane. I like making things.”

Excerpt from The Blind Date of a Lifetime by Bethanie Gorny.
CREATIVE WRITING
1st place Florida Writers Association Royal Palm Award for nonfiction. 2018
I emerge from the dim deplaning tunnel and there he is, standing right up
in front of the crowd of people waiting at the gate. I recognize him instantly
from the snapshots he sent a few months ago. He is seventy-eight years old,
five feet ten, of medium build, and has a full head of wavy white hair. He
scans the arriving passengers with a worried look. As soon as he sees me, he
breaks into a radiant smile and waves. His lake-blue eyes sparkle reflecting
the blinding Florida sunshine pouring through the windows and, for a
minute, everyone else evaporates and it seems as if there’s no one else in the
terminal but us — just my father and me, seeing each other for the first
time in forty-seven years.
Needlepoint by Bonnie Dublirer
Addicted to Writing
I write creative nonfiction essays, short stories, memoirs, and novellas. My
ideas come from relatives, friends, people I meet. If they inspire me, I want to
tell their stories. Holocaust survivors, a friend fighting cancer, people growing
older, family relationships, the person sitting next to me on a plane, my
gardener, myself. Does everyone have a story? It appears that way. So I start
with the character and the plot flows from there. I tell true stories creatively.
When I write, I feel like I’m painting with words.
—Bethanie Gorny
NOTE: More information about Bethanie can be found in the Online
Magazine Gallery at www.huntersrun.net.

Creative Songwriting By Arnie Zomick
Ever since I became a teenager
I fell in love with Rock ‘n Roll
Listened to the music, almost wherever I would go
Hendrix, Steppenwolf, and Cream were my intro.
We didn’t have Spotify so I listened to FM radio.
The above is to the tune of “Pinball Wizard “by The Who and is a synopsis of what I do--- blend Rock
‘n Roll songs to ideas, themes, activities, and current events. My thoughts percolate, assimilate, and
then I create---usually writing down my ideas, mulling them over, later rehashing them and
integrating with new ideas. Needless to say, it’s a process and eventually voila - “A Song is Born.” I
have written songs about pickleball, Hunters Run, and the coronavirus.
Here is one of my songs based on music by THE MOODY BLUES
“I’m just a player in a rock and roll band” and “Question of Balance.’’
I’m just a player on a pickleball team- paddle in hand, in search of a dream
Delray, Boynton, Boca Raton, that’s where you go to get it on.
If you wanna reach the finals at center court, you gotta play with passion-don’t serve short.
I’m just a player on a pickleball team- paddle in hand in search of a dream.
I’m looking for some magic in my life- I’m looking for a partner, pickleball wife
{
And if you play with style and grace- maybe we can paddle up-given time and space
Blend sports and romance and move in sync to our own special dance.

ODE TO HUNTERS RUN
by Barbara Breslow
Hunters Run is an unbelievable paradise for all who are lucky to reside here,
Understanding we are safe and protected with minimal fear.
No stone goes unturned to keep us fed and our grounds pristine,
Trees, birds, trails, golf courses and lakes that glow with a sheen.
Every effort is made to have a place to adore,
Refreshing walks, places to view, reflect and more,
So many opportunities to be part of the HUNTERS RUN community of friends,
The plethora of activities to participate and enjoy never ends!
Regardless of COVID or difficult situations and testing to bear,
Understanding all our needs and trying to be fair.
Neighbors caring and sharing and HAPPY HOUR in our special place,
We appreciate our Bubble and the relaxing pace.
We are blessed to be part of this vibrant community and clubs for fun,
We have been very fortunate to have ZOOM Programs at HUNTERS RUN!
Although we are only snowbirds who will leave the end of May,
We applaud our environs and ability to play!
We thank all who have kept us happy, safe, informed and well,
Join me in celebrating and let others the story of HUNTERS RUN to tell! Japanese art by Stewart Yaker.

BABYLUST
Excerpt by Ami Sands Brodoff
I didn’t know my grandbabe existed till I held her in my arms. My daughter called her Belle, after
my mother, and I wondered if every time we said her name, we’d both feel pain.
I rock Belle and old phrases sound in my mind, truth in their echo. Enjoy her. They grow up so fast.
The days go slow, the months pass.
I’d like to believe I had Grayson when I was young, just a girl, but this isn’t so. I wish I could conjure
being unsettled, Lord, I was settled as I was ever going to get. An accident? Franklin and I would
sneak into Mount Sinai on visitor’s hours and look through the glass at a blooming field of babies,
so new and old and wise, eyes still slitted against the world, we wanted one so.
I look into Belle’s black eyes, lashes grazing her cheeks and think, every mother is a daughter.
“You’ll learn her,” I tell Grayson. “You’ll learn her cries.” I want to pamper Grayson the way Mama
pampered me. She died three months ago, a few days after Belle’s birth. Grayson left the hospital for
the funeral bed and put Belle into my arms, the baby still spotty and scurf-scalped, skin peely as
bark. We hadn’t spoken for twelve years, Gray and I, not that I wanted silence—I ate humble pie till
I was sick on it--but Gray had an anger toward me that spurted up from underground, a boiling hot
spring. Once her heart gets set against you, she don’t turn back ... till she had Belle. The circle goes
around and comes around. Thank God for that.
Franklin and I, we argued over names. I remember us still leafing through baby books while I nursed
my new girl in the recovery room. I wanted to give my daughter a strong name, something different.
Franklin liked Grace, but it was too Puritan for me, too religious. I’d had it with a life as Charity.
We settled on Grayson—my mother-in-law’s maiden name. Franklin called her Grace, I fixed on
Gray. It’s a strong, cool hue, like the scaling notes on Franklin’s sax….

20 MAY/JUNE 2021 Hunters Run Country ClubElayne Kardeman - Creator & Mentor By Ann Forman
Take a step into Elayne Kardeman’s Cambridge villa and you are immediately surrounded by art. Not surprising as Elayne
is not only an artist herself but has used her creativity and mentorship skills to help disabled young people whom she
affectionately refers to as “my children” to realize their full potential through art.
Among her eclectic collection were two pieces that immediately caught my eye. To the right as you enter, I stopped to
admire a contemporary painting in smoky greys textured with pieces of gold netting. “That’s mine,” Elayne said dismissively,
“but I want to show you some of my children’s paintings…” And straight ahead she walked towards a portrait of a woman
with huge eyes, long dark hair and blue overralls. “Michael painted this,” she said. “It’s a portrait of his aide, Colleen.”
Let’s turn the clock back to when pass Elayne’s art room and peer

Play for P.I.N.K. at Hunters Run sure gave hope its best shot! The Committee
Chairs, Willyce Barr, Lynn Borislow, Sue Rappaport, Diane Soroka and Diane
Martin-Tryhane worked together to help raise more money than ever before. This
year’s events included: Swing for P.I.N.K., Tennis Wall of Donations, a Neighborhood Drive,
Tribute Wall, Mega Raffle and our annual Golf Tournament and Golf Signs. Over 370 golfers,
decked in pink, played in the tournament and helped raise funds for breast cancer research.
Through our members’ generosity, we are thrilled to announce that we raised over $120,000.
We are beyond grateful to all of you for this stellar achievement. Thanks to our wonderful
volunteers and fabulous golf staff for their support. We could not have done any of this without
you. See you in 2022 with new and exciting events for the benefit of Play for P.I.N.K. and the

COUNTRY CLUB LIFE IS GREAT. DURING THIS CORONAVIRUS YEAR, WE HAVE PLAYED ALL OUR CLUB CHAMPIONSHIPS,

NEW DUPLICATE BRIDGE ALERT PROCEDURES
There are some changes on the Alert procedure which you will need when you return to the table,
which we hope will be soon. Lynn Berg, a well-known bridge teacher, wrote an article in the ACBL
sectional magazine, Sunshine Bridge, on changes in the Alert procedures. Remember, when you
return to your Club, we do not SELF-ALERT.
1. Any transfer into a single suit no longer requires the word transfer but only the name of the suit
required
2. Only opening club bids which are artificial and forcing require an alert as well as a pre-alert at
the start of the round against a new opponent.
3. The point range for a 1NT opening must be announced but any overcall of a 1NT or a 2NT
opening bid does not.

Hunters Run Country Club MAY/JUNE 2021 29FITNESS
BALANCE By John Freeland, Director of Fitness
Do you have a balanced schedule? In a 24-hour day how much
sleep do you get? How much time is spent eating meals? How many
hours do you spend sitting in a chair, whether watching TV, on the
computer, or playing cards?
I am sure you guessed that this article is to persuade you to find
30 minutes a day, three days a week, to get to the Fitness Center to
improve your health. You probably assume that in this article I’ll
get on your case because you only have one body and if you don’t
take care of it, if you can’t find 90 minutes A WEEK, that you can’t
complain you don’t have the energy or strength you wish you had.
If you guessed this, you are wrong. Guilty, but wrong.
This article is specific to your physical balance. In 2019, Palm Beach
Fit& County Fire Rescue responded to 117,036 calls. This includes all fire
related calls, all car accidents and all medical calls. Of that amount
Trim
13,211 of those calls were slips and falls!!! Over 13,000!!!
In the human body, balance is primarily through the inner ears (not
the sense of hearing which is sensed by the middle ear.) That is why
people who are deaf don’t fall over. On the flip side, vertigo is caused
by a problem with the balance mechanisms of the inner ear and the
room seems to spin around you.
The secondary sense used for balance and agility is called proprioception. This deals with where the body is in space and time to the very
millisecond without our conscious awareness. That is how a gymnast knows when to open up from a back flip and still land on a four-inch
balance beam or when a pilot is flying upside down in complete darkness (I’m talking military fighter pilots not Jet Blue pilots.)
The last source, and least relied upon, is the sense of sight.
Unfortunately, as we get older we rely too much on our vision for our balance and agility. That is why we look down all the time, even when
walking down a straight hallway (which will also affect our posture.) Furthermore, we shorten our stride length and take short, choppy steps.
If we were to trip over an object while relying on our sense of sight, the time it would take for the incident to be sensed though the eyes and
relayed to the brain would take too long for our body to counteract and keep our body in an upright position. There is now a great chance
you become one of 13,000 people headed to the hospital on a stretcher.
Here at the gym, we offer training specifically to improve one’s balance and agility. One is in a group setting through Tai Chi. In Tai Chi
the participant moves in very slow, methodical movements forcing the body to be aware of where it is every second…proprioception. It is
a safe class because you can work up to your own capability. Tai Chi is offered every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday at 10 AM, Friday
at 9 AM.
The other method of training we do is one-on-one training. Here an individual is paired with a certified trainer specialized in balance and
agility training. The first plan of action is psychological, getting over one’s fears that inhibit his / her balance. The trainer starts with the
easiest exercise and will advance to more challenging exercises…never to exceed the client’s capabilities. This can be done using
balance boards, bosu’s, agility ladders and other apparatus to simulate real life events that might occur in the real world. For
example, if you were walking from the parking lot to Publix and you don’t notice the step leading into the supermarket, would
your body react quickly enough to keep you from falling face first? During training the trainer is there to immediately catch
you and prevent any injury. Along with this style of training the trainer will incorporate leg strengthening exercises for a
well-rounded program. These ½ hour sessions can be scheduled to the days and times that work within your
schedule, however availability of days and times are booking up fast.
It’s up to you. It only takes one fall, one broken bone, one dislocated hip and now
your time spent EVERY day is in a seated position.
Call now. Operators are standing by. Call 735-4056. But wait, if you call within the
next 20 minutes, you’ll receive a free cup of coffee in the Atrium. Just call 735-4056.
That is: seven three five four zero five six.
