Important Notice!!
Outside alcohol is not permitted at dinners, but we do have wonderful beverage options available:
We've partnered with Dave Gavatos at Swigg Wine Shop in Independence Mall. They've provided us with delicious wines, at a price break to the Club, which will be offered as house wines. One red and one white will be available at every dinner.
These will be the ONLY wines sold by the glass (6oz for $5) and… by the carafe (12oz for $8).
Additional Wine Options: A wider selection of wines will be available for purchase by the bottle at $15 each (Again—at a price break.)
• While we can't offer a customized wine selection for each meal, we'll strive for food-friendly pairings.
• Beverage service starts 30 minutes before meal service and ends when George’s announcements begin.
• Currently, only cash and checks are accepted. Please plan accordingly.
We're constantly learning and appreciate your suggestions! Please feel free to share your thoughts.
Thank you again for your continued support as we implement this new service. AND A Big Thank You: Diners have stepped up and completed the necessary server training, allowing us to maintain compliance with regulations.
Please let us know if you are interested in leading a dinner or volunteering next season!
We are preparing the schedule now!
