    As Spring rolls through and the temperatures begin to rise, I would like to take this
    opportunity to thank each of you for a very successful season here at Gleneagles.
    We had a fantastic turnout for Adam Ferrara & NYC3 in February and I’m still
    getting rave reviews from that event. Jesse Hamilton Jr. was also a huge success in
    March with great music and an amazing meal.
    We have a lot going on in the upcoming
    months here at Gleneagles and I’m excited
    about all of it and I hope you are too! We
    lead off with a dynamic duo performing in
    our Lounge on April 1 from 6:30 pm – 10:00
    pm. Join me in welcoming Maycol and Lilian
    to Gleneagles. They have been performing
    at The Mar-a-Lago Club in Palm Beach
    during winter and spring seasons since 2011.
    Florida's off season finds them performing at
    the Hotel Martinez in Cannes, France most
    summers and most recently in Bora Bora at             Maycol
    the renown St. Regis Hotel. They sing songs           & Lilian
                                                          April 1
    in English, Spanish, Portuguese, French and           Lounge
    Italian. They are a personal favorite of mine,        6:30 - 10:00 pm
    and I am sure you will love them!
    On April 3 and 4, we have our Eagles Have Flown Season celebration; NEVERLAND. With
    two days of live entertainment, great food and fun surprises, how can you go wrong?
    We are also excited to have Alexandra Lewis, one of the most sought-after and
    exciting singers in South Florida come and perform on April 14 at our Gleneagles
    University recital series. Some of you may recognize her name as she has
    performed here over the last couple of years in our lounge on Wednesday nights.
    She has a repertoire that covers all genres, including the American Song Book,
    Broadway, Opera, R&B and today's contemporary hits. This is an opportunity
    to hear her beautiful voice up close and personal and learn more about her
    upbringing and why music and theatre is in her DNA.
    We also have two other lectures slated this April that I highly recommend you sign
    up for. Women and Art in the 19th Century with Dr. Karen Leader, and Austrian and
    German Émigrés in the U.S. Army and OSS during World War II with Dr. Patricia Kollander.
    For those of you that will be leaving South Florida in the coming weeks to your summer
    playgrounds, thank you for your continued support. I wish you safe travels, good times
    and I look forward to seeing you return in the fall. For our year-round members, look
    for some fun events to be added to the calendar this summer all designed to enhance
    your club membership experience. Save the date for our Summer Dinner Show on
    June 11 where we have contracted Majesty of Rock, a mega talented group of musicians
    who banded together to faithfully re-create the sound and feel of the two super groups:
    Journey and Styx. This is going to be one incredible show!
    In the meantime, I will see you around the Club.

   Lesson Specials                           WHAT I LEARNED FROM MY FIRST PICKLEBALL EXHIBITION
                                             On February 24 I was privileged to take the court with three advanced Pickleball players in my first
      Free Tennis                            exhibition match. This was fun experience for me, and I learned a few important lessons that I
                                             would like to pass along to you. Surprisingly, the lessons I learned were simple, and are useful at

                                             2.   Stay Low! Standing up tall with a narrow stance is a recipe for missing any low ball. I’m tall,

                           APRIL SAFETY TIPS
                           April showers bring May flowers, but it also brings occasional showers. The

                           quickly, and shouldn’t interfere too much with your outdoor activities. Here
                           are some tips to get through the rainy season:
                           •   Be careful when driving in the rain. Utilize windshield wipers, pay
                               extra attention to intersections and pedestrian crosswalks, reduce your

                               slippery surfaces. Wear non-slip rubber soled shoes.
                           •   Look at the weather forecast before engaging in outdoor activity.                  Deepest
