The Board of Directors is committed to doing whatever it takes to give everyone something of value in exchange for their dues. 

We have a lot of exciting news and updates.

- Thanks again to Jeff Morgan for overseeing important structural and mechanical work being done to our facility. His expertise helped us start addressing important building concerns and has now helped us get over the hump...we've come a long way in 6 months. 

- Our crumbling north wall has been taken down, rebuilt and reinforced. Repairs to the roof are underway. Once the roof work is completed we will move inside to repair damage to the north walls in both the first and second floor bar areas.

- Important water system repairs have been made (We were heating way more water than needed and our new system will be much more efficient).

- Thank you to John Brown who has been painting inside the club.

- We are planning on shutting down the SHOWER AND STEAM ROOMS for 2 weeks in July to completely gut and re-tile these spaces. As soon as we have dates set we will get the word out. We will be looking for help with demolition, donations of materials and/or cash donations to help cover the costs associated.

- We are also working on getting the parking lots repaired and repaved.

We are committed to being an active supporter of our neighborhood and Maureen has been acting as our liaison to the neighborhood groups, Police Department and the community as a whole.

If there are other events you would like to see at the club please email us.

Coffee is free at the Club.
Please feel comfortable stopping for a cup of joe or grab a cup to go after your workout. We've started bringing in newspapers and other periodicals for people to read.

Don't forget that we have WIFI and you can come down to the club to do some work or have a business meeting/gathering.

Call today to host your party, meeting, fundraiser or gathering.
Andy and his team are ready to make your event a memorable one.

Please thank Andy Corcoran for all the hard work he continues to do as our General Manager.  He steps up everyday and works his tail off to improve the Club experience for everyone.

Please continue to support our staff who work very hard to provide a quality service to all our members. Because Andy is not able to be at the Club Full-Time, they are much more than bartenders. The Board views them more as Assistant Managers and they are given the authority to enforce the rules of the Club.

Needs and Wants
From time to time we will reach out to all of you with our needs and wants list. These may be things that you come across in your business or profession or even things that you have at home that you no longer need.

2015 Dues
Our 2015 bills will go out at the beginning of July as usual and are due on September 1st. We hope you will be able to pay promptly so that we can can continue to improve our Club. 

Restaurant
Andy and his team will be submitting a proposal to the Board for consideration this month for a pub style menu and hours that will be simple but effective.

If any other member would like to submit a proposal to the Board with a menu, budget, hours etc...it would be welcome and considered.

Remember to visit our website and our Facebook page and encourage your friends to do so as well! Also keep an eye out for our new "Pastimer Blog" coming soon.



Thank you all for your support!

See you at The Club.
