PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE I can’t resist using this month’s message to give recognition to the outstanding job Dan Pierson has done during his more than 25 years of service to your Club. As you know, Dan will be retiring at the end of the year and an active search is well underway for his successor. I had the opportunity to serve as Grounds Chair for three years and learned to appreciate how incredibly hard it is to maintain our grounds at the level our members expect.The job requires a deep understanding of the science of turf management, excellent people skills (members and staff), and the eye of landscape architect. It can also be a very frustrating position because we are so often at the mercy of our incredibly variable weather. Mother Nature can defeat the best laid plans every time! On balance, Dan has delivered an outstanding product day in and day out and he has designed and directed many, many projects that have improved the appearance or playability of our golf courses and racquet facilities. Dan and his team deserve a lot of the credit for the outstanding reputationWilmington Country Club has in our region and the country, and I am grateful for his service. Gary Ferguson President

A NOTE FROM PHIL September Greetings!
The seasons are changing! After enduring a very uncomfortable summer, I’m pretty confident that we are all ready for some shorter days and cooler nights. Although they were especially beautiful this year, the summer annuals are looking a bit tired and ready to be replaced by fall mums.There are other signals to indicate that summer will soon be just a memory. One is the pool. Once again, our intention is to extend the pool season one weekend past Labor Day but this year, that intention is being met with several challenges.The pool will closeTuesday through Friday immediately following the Labor Day weekend. Whether or not we are able to reopen the following weekend will be decided once we get a look at the weather and available staff.Watch for email updates. Another signal that seasons are changing is that we just had a meeting to review this
year’s Christmas decorations. It reminded me to remind you that there is no better place to hold your Holiday Celebration than your Club. Christine and Barbara mentioned to me that several good dates remain available. In fact, the calendar permitted shifting Candlelight Dinners a little closer to Christmas this year to open up some desirable mid-week evenings.Whether your event is for 20 people or 200, personal or business, give us a call and let us show you how easy and painless Holiday entertaining can be. Inside the Clubhouse, September marks the beginning of the “Dining Season”. Formal and informal menus both undergo some minor adjustment to keep seasonal. Casual outdoor dining will continue to be available on the Club’s various patios as long as the weather holds. But why not consider dressing up a bit and joining friends and family in the Dining Room? Many of you take full advantage of our offer for a celebratory dinner on your birthday.The most frequent comment heard from members after enjoying their special evening is, “Why don’t we do this more often?” Good question! . . .Why don’t you? Don’t wait until you have something special to celebrate. Just come! You’ll be glad you did. My next item is our annual declaration of amnesty.We know that occasionally some Club items may unintentionally find their way home. Beer steins, glasses, silverware, demo racquets or clubs, fitness and locker towels, etc. all have a tendency to disappear over the busy summer. Once you have them you don’t know how to bring them back without appearing like they were “taken”. Not to worry. September is the month when you can simply bring these items back where they belong - no questions asked or judgments made! Returning any item means that replacements don’t have to be purchased which obviously helps reduce our operating costs. In previous epistles, I have issued a plea for help in finding the history that makes your Club a special place. It hasn’t gone unnoticed and, over the years, we have received some wonderful pieces.Thank you. Many items are on display in the Heritage Hallway. Please understand that the treasure hunt never ends.We need you to keep looking for those images and artifacts from the “good old days” at the Club. So, when cleaning out that attic or basement, if you run across something Club related, don’t assume that it wouldn’t be what we’d like to have. Anything that brings back memories of a different time at the Club qualifies as a treasure and only gets more valuable as time marches on. It seems like yesterday we were celebrating the opening of the Pool and Poolside Café with a wonderful three-day Memorial Day weekend. Swim Meets, Sports Camps, Golf and Racquets Championships, July 4th Fireworks, and Farm- to-Table Dinners are just some of the great memories of the season. I hope that you have had an opportunity to take advantage of the facilities enjoying your favorite activity. If not, don’t despair - there is still a full complement of social, fitness, golfing and racquets events planned, so plenty of chances remain! I’ll see you at the Club. Phil Iannelli General Manager

WINES OF THE MONTH
CHATEAU LA FREYNELLE
Daignac, France
Chateau La Freynelle is a mid-sized (75 hectares) estate in the village of Daignac, in the heart of the Entre- Deux-Mers region of Bordeaux. The property is adjacent to the famous Chateau Bonnet which is owned by the Lurton family. Considered to be one of the best estates in this region, Chateau La Freynelle makes award winning red, white and rose Bordeaux wines that surpass its neighbors in finesse and quality. Through the dedication and perseverance of Veronique Barthe, who inherited the estate at the age of 22 years old after the tragic death of her parents, she has built an outstanding legacy and her wines are now widely distributed throughout the United States. La Freynelle has been in the Barthe Family since 1789 and Ms. Barthe is the first female winemaker in 7 generations of family ownership.

BOOK CLUB Our WCC Book Club will meet on September 11th, the second Tuesday in September, as many people may be away because the first Tuesday is the day after Labor Day. Our September 11th selection is Jason Fagone’s incredible book, The Woman Who Smashed Codes: A True Story of Love, Spies, and the Unlikely Heroine Who Outwitted America’s Enemies . In 1916, at the most intense period ofWorldWar I, brilliant Shakespeare expert Elizebeth Smith went to work for an eccentric tycoon, George Fabyan, at his own private research facility known as Riverbank Laboratories outside Chicago. She was hired to be on a team to decode Shakespeare’s texts to find proof that Francis Bacon was the true author of Shakespeare’s plays. She studied the different styles in which different letters were written to find messages she could unscramble in order to determine the true author. Fabyan had close ties to the U.S. government, and he soon asked Elizebeth to apply her language skills to an exciting new venture: code-breaking. There she met William Friedman, the man who would become her husband and a groundbreaking cryptologist. Though she and Friedman are in many ways the "Adam and Eve" of the NSA, Elizebeth's story, incredibly, has never been told. Her invaluable work with the Navy, the Treasury Department and the Coast Guard leading code breaking teams during Prohibition and bothWorldWars was unbelievably tense and exciting, ground-breaking work for women. Join us at 4:00 p.m. on the 11th in the Ladies’ Locker Room as Janet Robinson leads the discussion of the work this brilliant and courageous woman did in cryptology for our government. For October, we have chosen Sheri Fink’s Five Days at Memorial: Life and Death in a Storm Ravaged Hospital . Fink vividly recreates the chaotic hours inside Memorial Medical Center in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina hit in August 2005.The story focuses on events that occurred when the hospital was flooded, its generators failed, and the exhausted medical staff struggled to survive and maintain life amid chaos when no adequate evacuation plan for everyone existed.

WCC ORCHARD HISTORY
COURTESY OF ROGER WILKE
The origins of our orchard go back to the early 1930’s. At that time, about 15 years after Henry Francis du Pont had assumed management from his father, the total acreage of Winterthur Farm had grown to well over 2000. One record has it that 70 workers and their families made up a population of over 200 people living on the farm. It had a railroad station, a post office, a sundry shop and an elementary school. In 1932, possibly triggered by a ‘self-sufficiency’ frame of mind that was common during the great depression, Mr. du Pont asked that a fruit orchard be designed to go along with a vegetable garden that was located where the North Course 6th fairway is today that had grown to 5 ½ acres. Mr. E. J. Humphries, his Farm Superintendent, produced a very extensive plan to satisfy his request. The result was not your everyday orchard! In all, it covered 23 acres. Mr. Humphries included 108 apple trees (22 species), 108 peach trees (10 species), and a number of pear, plum, cherry, nectarine and peacharine trees. The pear, plum and other miscellaneous trees were in four rows about 30 feet apart starting near the front of the North Course 9th tee and running roughly parallel to the fence toward the green. The apple and peach trees were in another 9 rows covering our present entrance road. He also planted two rows of grapes – eating as opposed to wine varieties – along the fence. It is important to note that the orchard and the vegetable garden were not commercial ventures. Nearly all of the harvest went to feed Mr. du Pont’s family and the Winterthur employees and their families. A publication, the Winterthur Reporter, from the fall of 1984 says that, during the summer and fall months, four full-time employees were engaged in canning and freezing the harvest. A processor in West Chester made cider and apples that could not be eaten immediately were taken to a cold storage facility in Chester County. Two men were employed year round to prune and spray the orchard and to pick and sort the fruit in the fall. The entire orchard was part of the 335.056 acres that became the Wilmington Country Club in 1952. A condition of the sale was that the Winterthur staff would maintain the orchard and the vegetable garden and the products would belong toWinterthur until Mr. du Pont’s death. Members who
have been in the club for more than 35 years may remember that, until 1969, the entrance road made 90 degree turns to go around the trees rather than go diagonally through the orchard as it does now. The orchard today is quite different and we can point to some factors to explain how we got from then to now. • First the life expectancy of cherry, plum, nectarine and peacharine trees is much shorter than that of apples and pears - they are all gone. • The grape arbor was probably removed when the line between the properties was defined in 1952. • All of the original peach trees were removed as they deteriorated with age. • Many trees of all kinds were removed to build the 9th hole. • Other apple trees came down to reroute the entrance road after Mr. du Pont’s death in 1969. • Finally, apple trees have a long, but finite, life expectancy and today only 3 of the trees planted in 1932 remain. Key to today's array is that, in 1997, after some years of indifference, a modest program of pruning and spraying was started. Improvements came quickly and in 1998 a decision was made to replace some of the lost trees. Modern varieties were chosen and new trees were planted on the same 'grid' as the original orchard. Dwarf trees were chosen for easier maintenance and new, hybrid species such as Gala, Fuji, Empire and Enterprise were added along with existing varieties such as Golden and Red Delicious and Cortland. We have continued to replace lost trees and 4 varieties of peaches have been restored along the fence. Today, in total, there are about 70 apple trees and 25 peach and pear trees. WCC members and employees are welcome to enjoy peaches in August and early September and apples from September through November. As in the past, a map, identifying all the trees in relation to the cart path and other physical features, will be available near the handicap computer above the Pub. Get a copy and have fun locating and picking your favorites. Fruit that is judged ready to pick will be indicated by a green ribbon attached to the branches.

A NOTE FROM THE GOLF SHOP There was plenty of golf action at the club in August. Our Men’s Match Play event provided great drama, our annual championships continued through their brackets, and our junior golf camps continued to get our youngest players on the course. There is even more in store for September. Several terrific events including the Men’s Labor Day Member-Member, Men’s Member Guest, Senior/ Super Senior Stroke Play, Ladies Guest Day and more are all on tap for the weeks ahead. Check out all of the action below.

RECAP MEN’S MATCH PLAY
Despite a shaky forecast, the skies stayed clear all day for the semi-finals and finals of the Men's Match Play Championship and some great golf was played. In the morning matches Blake Hinckley holed out twice from the fairway for eagle on both holes 3 and 12, on his way to a sterling 67 and victory over Dave Heaney. Defending Champion Jared Green defeated Hal Erskine in the other semi-final, despite another eagle two from the fairway by Mr. Erskine on the fifth hole. As a result, the afternoon match pitted the Defending Champion Jared Green against our reigning Men's
Club Champion Blake Hinckley. In the end Blake Hinckley's fine ball striking carried the day as he carded a three under par round into the final hole to claim his first Men's Match Play title. Congratulations to our Men's Match Play Champion, Blake Hinckley!

PGA JUNIOR LEAGUE GOLF RECAP 2018 was another successful year for Wilmington Country Club’s PGA Junior League Golf. We went from 14 players in 2017 to 25 in 2018 and created two teams! For those not familiar of
PGA Junior League, it is essentially “Little League” for Golf. Players play together on a team and in matches they play a two-person scramble to help ease the stress of individual competition and promote leadership and sportsmanship through a common goal. It also allows juniors to play local courses including Biderman, Hartefeld, Kennett Square, Newark, and Rock Manor. We would like to thank all the players for their strong play and positive attitudes as well as the parents for all
their help driving to matches/practices and chaperoning on-course. A special shout out to our Post Season All-Stars including Jack Homer & Drew Allen from Team 1 and Drew Clark from Team 2. Jack Homer & Drew Allen have advanced through Sectional Qualifying and will play in the Philadelphia Section Championship on August 25 at Cedarbrook. 2018 Players : Asher Eichenbaum, Avery McCrery, Beckett Chipman, Beckett Huber, Ben Ashley, Colin Burke, Connor Smith, Cooper McDonald, Drew Allen, Drew Clark, Eli Stover, Elizabeth Spagnolo, Ethan Groves, George Rossi, Jack Allen, Jack Hebert, Jack Homer, James Mitchell, Justin Solacoff, Mack Rubano, Michael Dignazio, MichaelWaesco, Parker Alivernini, Quinn Green,Thomas Flickinger

Classes will also need at least four players for the program to go forward. Make Up Class Policy: Kids can make up two classes in the following session. If your child is not able to come, please let us know so that players on the waiting list or who’d like to drop in are able to join the class that day. Drop-In Policy: Kids are able to drop-in into any appropriate level class that is not full (6 kids). The drop-in rate is slightly higher per class than registering for the entire session.

Competition players will be encouraged to play on our Junior League Teams, as well as compete in both District (DE), Sectional (DE, NJ, PA) USTA tournaments.

SQUASH NEWS
JUNIOR SQUASH PROGRAM
"There is no glory in practice. But without practice, there is no glory. - Unknown"
SINGLES & DOUBLES ROUND ROBIN Mondays 6:00 pm – 7:30 pm To sign up for programs, please contact the Racquet Shop [email protected] COACHING CORNER Over the next few months I’ll be doing a series on “Styles of Squash”.There are numerous styles of play and I will discuss the pros and cons of the style as well as the strategy against that type of player. THE HARD HITTER This player will try to overpower you. Puts you on the defensive, by keeping you off balance and making you rush your shots.They play with high intensity and usually are fast to the frontcourt. Pros : Makes opponents react. Can hit winners by passing opponents. Doesn’t allow opponents to get set up and use deception. Cons : Usually lacks control. Hits too low on the front wall. Can be tiring. Loose balls can create bad positioning. Slow recovery due to over swinging. Can become one-dimensional.

STRATEGIES AGAINST THE HARD HITTER:
• Move up in the court • Volley as much as possible as this gives them little time to wind up their swing
• Vary the pace of shots • Good use of the lob
• Redirect the ball when they are off balance • Avoid going short unless they are in the back • Don’t allow the opponent to set up in the front court • Shorten the backswing • Don’t try and outhit a hard hitter (unless you can actually out hit them). It only fuels the fire.
KEEP IN MIND: Hard hitting doesn’t mean high tempo, and high tempo doesn’t mean hitting it hard.
