Anton’s Salon and Spa is now offering a golf-specific massage. State certified massage therapist Stacy Damiano has been providing the golf specific hour-long massage.
The massage is intended to warm up muscles, prevent injuries, relax muscles, and provide a one-hour period of mental relaxation.
The golf-specific massage at $90 is a bit more expensive than the usual hour-long massage. The serious golfers are finding it to be worth it.

WALES, Wisconsin—The Legend has announced plans to take the recently acquired Bristlecone Pines, now renamed The Legend at Bristlecone, fully private by the end of the 2009 golf season. The “Drive for 25” as it is being called around The Legend is expected to fill the 25 memberships needed to take the golf operations at The Legend at Bristlecone fully private.
Limited public play has always been accepted at The Legend at Bristlecone, while The Legend at Brandybrook has remained fully private since the day it opened in June 2003. A month ago, prior to the sale being finalized, Managing Partner Jack Gaudion shared his vision with the Bristlecone members that The Legend at Bristlecone would become fully private in 2011, or possibly as soon as April 2010, depending on the success of their aggressive membership drive.
The announcement of fully private golf operations at The Legend at Bristlecone is music to the ears of the club members who prior to the acquisition by The Legend had little hope that Bristlecone would ever progress into a fully private club. “It became increasingly difficult to refer a friend or colleague to the club as a new member when it was apparent to everyone that Bristlecone was never going to become a fully private club. Now everyone is referring their friends to The Legend. The golf courses, facilities, and commitment to the Membership by truly experienced golf people makes it easy for me to promote to a prospective member,” said Bristlecone Board Member Jeff Reichhoff.
The Bristlecone acquisition was completed just two weeks ago and due to the overwhelming positive response from dozens of new member prospects referred by Legend Members, The Legend has accelerated its mission to end public play at The Legend at Bristlecone before the end of the 2009 golf season.
As the club industry is in decline around the country, The Legend stands in stark contrast with its family-oriented club model, refundable membership deposits, and young, active membership. “New members are the lifeblood of a club. They bring with them fresh ideas, a sense of vitality and enthusiasm, and allow us to provide more benefit and a better dues value to the Membership as a whole. This acquisition and membership drive has allowed us to attract new members that never would have joined The Legend previously, whether the reason cost or location. The success of the last two weeks and the next 45 days has pushed this club to an entirely different level unlike any other private club in Wisconsin,” Gaudion said.
Until September 1, initiation deposits at The Legend will be sold for $15,000. After September 1, deposits will return to $35,000 as they were prior to the membership drive.
The Legend has two upcoming events for Prospective Members. The first is an island-themed pool party on The Legend at Bristlecone’s Pool Deck on Friday, July 31st. The second features Milwaukee’s Finest, “The Eddie Butts Band” and will be held on The Legend at Brandybrook’s Pool Deck on Friday, August 14th. Prospective Members can RSVP to these events by calling The Legend at 968-9717.
“No other club can rival The Legend’s dual club facilities. Combine that with the reciprocal benefits Legend Members have at The Legend at Bergamont, and Legend Members have access to three Championship Golf Courses, one fully private clubhouse, two semi-private full-service clubhouses, and three pool, tennis, and fitness complexes. No other club can offer that.”
“In these unprecedented times, it seems that many people are understandably leery of a major discretionary investment. If you’re looking to join a private club, I simply can’t imagine why you would join anywhere else,” said Club President Kevin Scharnek.
The Legend’s commitment to its members remains strong as well. The Legend is the only fully private club offering 100% refundable membership initiation deposits in metro Milwaukee. The Legend is the only fully private club who guarantees no member assessments for future capital improvements or operating losses.
The Legend is a privately-owned non-equity club, which was founded in 2003 with the opening of The Legend at Brandybrook in Wales, Wisconsin. In 2007, The Legend purchased The Bergamont, now The Legend at Bergamont, in Oregon, Wisconsin.
The centerpiece of The Legend at Brandybrook is a world class, 7,006 yard, golf course and is known for its firm and fast tour like playing conditions, especially it’s A-4 Bentgrass greens. The Legend has been rated the #2 Private Course in the Milwaukee area by the Business Journal and has hosted the American Junior Golf Association’s Future Legends for several years. The Legend was nominated as Golf Digest’s “Best New Private Course in America in 2004”.
Rated 4 1/2 stars by Golf Digest, The Legend at Bristlecone’s championship golf course was designed by Scott Miller, a former senior designer for Jack Nicklaus. Playing to 7,005 yards with a par of 71, The Legend at Bristlecone has already played host to more than one-half dozen state tournaments including regional qualifying for the U.S. Open and the State Amateur Championship, Bristlecone will host the Wisconsin State Open in 2010.

The City of Delafield 50th Birthday celebration will run from July 4th thru July 12th 2009.
Some of the events will include:
June 19, 2009 at 08:41 PM
Once in America, extended families would live together. Newly weds moving in with the parents. As our nation flourished, more families lived in single family homes without the extended families. Is our current economy starting a resurgence of the first immigration society? Is there a renaissance to get back to the extended family living together?
Most single family homes in the area are set up for one family living. Most or all of the bedrooms are on the same level, there is only one kitchen, one great room, one laundry room. A few homes are set up for living with extended families, such as the one at W329N4671 Elderwood Dr, Nashotah, WI. This property has two living spaces, making sharing a roof with a grown child or aging parents much less invasive to your lifestyle. The main level has a large kitchen, great room, laundry room, and 4 bedrooms while the exposed lower level has a bedroom, kitchen, living room, sun room, and laundry room. This makes living under the same roof as your loved one much more comfortable for all involved. You don’t have to pick up their dishes or wait for the washer.

As summer progresses why not make plans to attend this year’s Waukesha County Fair, July 15-19. This year the original cream puffs will be at the pavilion as well as at “express” tents near the exits. Can we say “calories to go?”

With the recent Autism Awareness Day, this blog will be something close to my heart, area schools, Wisconsin, and programs for children with Special Needs.
A big question in the minds of parents with children is the quality of education offered from their local school. This uncertainty increases when one has a child needing special services. Southeastern Wisconsin, especially Waukesha and Jefferson Counties have taken considerable steps to providing services for these types of children.
Wisconsin Autism Society has many chapters for education and support. The Annual Autism Society of Wisconsin Conference will be held at the Kalahari Resort & Convention Center in Wisconsin Dells from May 7-9, 2009.

Make it a day and go to the
Naga-waukee Golf Course off Maple Ave in the town of Delafield.
You can stop for coffee at
Panera Bread and then off to play 18 holes of golf on the course. After your round you could stop at
Water Street Brewery for dinner. If you want atmosphere on the waterfront
The Golden Anchor is right on Maple Avenue with casual dining.
Take advantage of this nice weather and golf while you can.

When transfering to Wisconsin one may be apprehensive about finding a home or a community that will make them feel comfortable. Can we find a home that will be what I’m looking for? Will it be nicer/larger than my current home? What will it cost?
One may have interests in golf, boating, fishing, or biking. Finding a community that makes you feel comfortable is just as important as the home one lives in.
If golfing is your activity there are numerous opportunites in both public and private courses. Lining both sides of the I94 corridor is Brookfield Hills, Willow Run, Western Lakes, Nagawaukee, and Pagonica. A mere 3 and a half miles to the south off Hwy 83 is The Legend at Brandybrook, an 18 hole, newer, private golf course community that challenges even the most acomplished professional. The community exists with stately homes, a clubhouse, pool, tennis courts, and exercise facility. Four miles to the north off Hwys 16 and KE is Bristlecone Pines . A community larger than The Legend, also with tennis courts, a pool, and clubhouse. Both of these clubs are private although one does not need to live in the neighborhood to belong to either club.
Boating and fishing can be done at one of the 120 Lakes in the Lake Country area. Lakes such as Pewaukee, Nagawicka, Okauchee, LaBelle, the Nemabins Upper and Lower and the Nashotahs Upper and Lower, are quite plentiful and have public access. Most have public ramps and some have life guards at the beaches.
The glacier-drumlin trail provides scenic trials for the avid rider.
Homes range in price from the low hundred thousand to several million. Their style, age, and size vary as well. The school districts are ranked as some of the best in the country.
