March has become one of the busiest months of the year for the club, and this March was no exception.Our staff served 2,022 peoplebetween the 1st and the 31st! Here are just a few of the March memories made.

It occurred to us, while moving the furniture in the Clubs Living Room (for what felt like the millionth time during March!)that there is A LOT of seating around the club that needs to be replaced. Our banquet chairs, which weve already estab-lished desperately need to go, are moved in and out of rooms for events; but there are many chairs and sofas in the livingroom/lobby area that are in less than stellar condition and are visible and used everyday. Our friendly, courteous service andexcellent food go a long way in making a good impression on potential members and guests, but the furniture in questioncertainly doesnt. So, we thought, why not extend the Chair Drive? We know its important to be proud of your club.Please take a moment to fill out the form donation form and help us put as may best seats forward as we can.
Yes! I/we want to help the Club put its best seat forward:
$250 (6 chairs) $135 (3 chairs) $50 (1 chair) other $_______
