| The wait is over..... |
After a lot of research, discussion, consultation and consideration your Board has decided unanimously to move our club operations to St. James church on Elizabeth Ave effective early February. We would like to thank all members who took the time to visit St James and send feedback to the Board. We considered each and every email carefully before making our decision. Our Search Committee also has had numerous discussions with the St James property manager based on your suggestions and has had very positive feedback. We feel this is the right move for our club and look forward to welcoming everyone to the new facility.
We will keep you updated as the transition moves forward.
