FROM THE PRESIDENT

There are so many reasons to visit the Club when we reopen in August! Aside from the fact we haven’t seen you in at least three weeks we’ve been busy painting, cleaning, remodeling and making improvements all over the Club.

First, you won’t miss the impact the new lower level entrance will have as your first impression to the Club. It’s a warm, elegant and inviting yet comfortable look in the foyer.

The Tap Room Porch really pops with a new stationary bar and three high top bar tables with comfy stools. This gives the room a real pub like atmosphere, perfect for a leisurely dinner or a quick beer on the Porch or in the Tap Room.

We’ve really outdone ourselves with the ABC Rooms. A completely new look, we have new tables, carpeting, window treatments, and paint in the ABC Rooms as well as the foyer. Well appointed and beautiful down to the last detail. The color scheme is a perfect complement to the Club’s grand tradition and fitting for your next private party!

The rest of the Club has been polished and shined, painted and scrubbed to prepare for our reopening. I encourage you to plan a visit to your Club soon and check out the changes we’ve made. You won’t be disappointed.

R. Mark Winter, President, Board of Governors, Johns Hopkins Club

CLUB’S BOOK CIRCLE

Dead Wake by Erik Larson is the current bestseller about the sinking of the passenger ship Lusitania by a German submarine in 1915 with the loss of 1,200 lives including 128 Americans. It is a story of international intrigue — the ship was later found to have been carry-ing munitions from America and that the sinking may have been secretly welcomed or even encouraged by the British as an incentive for the United States to enter World War One. Larson is the author of The Devil in the White City and In the Garden of Beasts and many other books.

The Dinner and discussion will begin at 6:30 p.m. however you are invited to join other mem-bers of the Book Circle for Cocktails beginning at 6:00 p.m. Reservations are required. Cost: $29 plus surcharge and sales tax. Cocktails not included.

JOHNS HOPKINS CLUB SCARVES AND TIES

SAN MARTIN DRIVE CONSTRUCTIONBeginning soon, San Martin Drive will be under construction for im-provements however, work has not begun at the time this newsletter goes to press. The University is wait-ing for city permits and is envision-ing that this project will take place in three phases, each of which will require some road closures during construction.

One phase will be along Wyman Park Drive from Remington Ave-nue to Carnegie Way. The road will be closed in this section although

you will be able to access Carnegie Way from the north. This will have a minimal effect on the way you travel to the Club.

The other two phases will create some changes to the way you ac-cess the Club. As more information unfolds, we will keep you updated in upcoming newsletters and emails. Click here to visit the JHU web-site for more information about this project

Now on sale! Beautiful Johns Hopkins Club logo silk scarves and silk ties! Cost: both scarves and ties are $35.00 each or two for $60.00.

WINE BERRY SAUCE

2 cups sliced strawberries

¼ cup cane sugar

1/3 cup dry red wine

2 tsp. Amaretto or ¼ tsp almond extract

Place strawberries in a bowl, toss with sugar. Let stand 12 hours or overnight. Drain liquid from the berries into a small pan, add wine. Bring to a boil over high heat, reduce heat and boil gently for 1 minute.

Pour wine and liqueur over berries and mix well, refrigerate for 1 week or freeze for longer storage.

PRESERVING, CANNING AND DELICIOUSNESS FROM A SUMMER’S BOUNTY

Most of us probably have a story or two about grandmom or family canning in the summer as we grew up. I will always

remember mom and her dill and fennel pickles. The slicing of cucumber bushels and onions and the sterilizing of lids and jars, the aroma of vinegar, sugar and spices all became summer vacation rituals.

From farmers markets to roadside fruit and vegetable stands to our local supermarkets, we certainly love loading our baskets with a variety of col-orful peppers, tomatoes, juicy peaches, nectarines, glowing red and purple plums and grapes. The greens of asparagus, pole beans, cucumbers, squash and everyone’s favorite, sweet corn.

We have a desire to keep the summer bounty with us year-round. While few of us want to return to the era of preserving large quantities of food for the colder months, we are developing a taste for new flavors and want to enhance some of our simple meals. Small batch preserving allows all of us to do so.

Preserving food can be fun and is not at all difficult. Preserving food re-quires two very important things. The first is to destroy all micro-organisms

such as bacteria, molds and yeast naturally present in food to prevent them from spoiling the preserved product. The second is to make sure your preserving containers are sterile and sealed in such a manner that other organisms cannot enter and spoil your prepared foods.

Please remember not all of our food’s micro-organisms are bad and the ones naturally present that are good are intentionally used to create new forms of food. For example, bacteria added to milk produce creamy yogurt, enzymes turn milk into curds and molds introduced into curds cre-ate wonderful cheeses. Wine makers understand the result of yeast growing in grape juice that once fermented and aged turn into something splendid.

There are four ways to preserve food—Heat, acid, sugar and freezing. Before canning and preserving, obtain a book specifically written to give you the proper procedures, times and temperatures for safe food preserva-tion. Follow the easy step by step instructions and experiment with your favorite fruits and vegetables.

TUESDAYIt’s Fried Chicken Country Buffet in the Tap Room on Tuesday nights. All your favorites com-plete this buffet feast for just $17. Our regular Tap Room menu is also available. In the Main Dining Room, Prime Rib is what’s featured. Complete with Wine and Coffee service, the full buffet is $30, the limited buffet is $24 (no prime rib).

WEDNESDAYOur Fried Chicken Country Buffet is so popu-lar we added a second night in the Tap Room. Any wine by the glass or bottle is half price on Wednesday all day in the Lounge, Main Dining Room and Tap Room.

THURSDAYBack by popular demand is our Prix Fixe Dinners on Thursday night! Choose from three entrees including Salad, Sorbet, fresh Vegetable and Starch with Dessert and Coffee for just $24. Our limited menu is also available.

Happy Hour in the Tap Room 5:30 – 8:00 p.m. Weekly Buffet specials like Tacos, Subs and Wings along with specials on drinks. Student members welcome!

Two sets— 8:30 – 9:30 p.m. and 10:00 – 11:00 p.m.

The Johns Hopkins Club in partnership with the Peabody Institute brings you Jazz at the Johns Hopkins Club!

Award winning guitarist and recording artist Paul Bollenback’s work has been described as “unambiguous, up-front and powerful . . . a versatile dynamo on guitar whose approach to jazz and blues has uniqueness unto itself ”, by guitar master George Benson, a long time supporter. His influences include Carlos Santana, Wes Montgomery, John McLaughlin, Johnny Winter and Jimi Hendrix, among guitarists.

Bollenback got his earliest musical nudge from his father, and upon moving to India at age 11, he cultivated a lifelong interest in exotic musical sounds and timbres that remains evident in even his most jazz based work. He became a rock and roll artist until he heard Miles Davis for the first time, which refocused his energies into jazz fusion.

He has appeared on the Tonight Show, Good Morning America, The Today Show and Entertainment Tonight and has played with an impressive spectrum of musicians.

Bollenback also leads a dual life as an educator with a long career teaching jazz at Peabody Conservatory among others. His latest recording Portraits in Space and Time was released to critical acclaim in 2014.

Performance by Paul Bollenback (guitar) features Gary Thomas (tenor saxo-phone), Jared Gold (organ), and Jeff “Tain” Watts (drums).
