The Quad Portland: September 22, 2025
Dear Member,
Welcome to the community—and to The Quad! Here’s your biweekly member newsletter.

Today marks the official first day of fall—which means shorter days, longer nights, and a good excuse to shake things up. Here are 10 simple ways to reset, recharge, and feel your best this season:
- Adjust Your Sleep Schedule
As the light shifts, so can your routine. Try going to bed a bit earlier to align with the natural light cycles. - Add Fall Produce to the Mix
Squash, pumpkin, and sweet potatoes. Don’t forget your warming spices like cinnamon, turmeric, and ginger! - Refresh Your Fitness
Challenge yourself by trying a new class or adding a new move to your strength-training lineup. Small changes can spark big motivation and momentum. - Boost Your Vitamin D
Shorter days mean less sun, so aim for 15–20 minutes outside when you can—or consider a high-quality supplement to keep your energy steady. - Layer in Gratitude
Fall naturally slows us down—take a moment each day to jot down one thing you’re thankful for. It’s a small practice that makes a big difference. (I’m a big fan of my 5-Minute Gratitude Journal.) - Learn Something New
Shorter evenings are perfect for picking up a new skill—whether that’s cooking with fall flavors, trying meditation, or reading that book you’ve been putting off. Here’s the viral Caramelized Banana Iced Latte recipe we’ve been seeing everywhere. - Declutter Your Space
As we start spending more time indoors, clear out what you don’t need. A tidy space sets the stage for a clearer mind. - Hydrate with Intention
Cooler weather can trick us into drinking less water. Keep a bottle handy, and add a slice of citrus or cucumber to mix it up. - Plan a Cozy Ritual
Maybe it’s tea before bed, Sunday soup-making, or a candlelit stretch session. Build in something that signals “slow down.” - Stay Connected
Shorter days can feel isolating. Make it a point to schedule time with friends, family, or your community. Connection is fuel!
In good health,

Bay Club Portland: Kids Club Flooring Upgrades
We’re excited to share that flooring upgrades in the Kids Club will begin Monday, October 6. Over a 2-week period, we’ll be installing new tiling, carpet, and sports court flooring. All work will take place after Kids Club hours and in short phases in order to minimize disruption. Play areas may shift as needed so kids can continue enjoying their time in the Club. We appreciate your patience as we make these enhancements.
Bay Club Portland: Pickleball Conversion
Starting Monday, October 13, we’ll begin converting Basketball Court #3 into three new indoor pickleball courts. The project will take about three weeks to complete, with most of the work taking place during daytime hours. During this time, Basketball Court #3 will be offline, and you may notice some minor construction noise throughout the project.
