Library Dining
We are pleased to offer to the members of the
Club our commitment that we will offer luncheon
and dinner service in the Library; Wednesday
through Friday. If the Library should be unavaila-
ble we will relocate formal dining to another suita-
ble room in the Club. When making a reservation
for the library you will be informed if formal dining
has been relocated. We try to avoid this as often
as possible, but feel that the President’s Room or
the Main Dining Room make marvellous rooms
for dining with white linen and attentive service.
