A Toast to the Season & the Members!

Member Holiday Party
12/2/2008

When was the last time you went to relaxed, stress-free holiday party, thrown especially in your honor? Members that attended the Member Holiday Party on December 2nd were treated to a night just like this! Whether you enjoyed a Peppermint Stick at the specialty cocktail bar, or arrived early and gorged on an extravagant caviar spread from Tsar Nicoulai, or danced the night away with the Keith Johnson All-Stars, it was a night to remember!

Members mixed and mingled throughout the 10th and 11th floors, exploring the various food stations or selecting tasty bites as servers weaved their way through the crowd. With the festive decorations in the Club lending a holiday ambiance, and the blend of quiet background music or lively dancing available, there was something for everyone’s taste. For some members, it was their first Member holiday party, and for others, a way to catch up with friends they may not have seen in a while.

Take a look at Board Member Pamela Rhodes pictures of the evening – she took some great candid shots!

This happens to be one of my favorite events, as we get to kick off the holiday season with a party especially prepared to show how much we appreciate each and every member. What a fantastic group of people! One thing they all have in common is that they are true ladies and gentlemen, and the warmth and camaraderie felt at this party truly reflected this commonality. We, the staff, are just so thankful for this occasion and for a membership that gives back to us as much as we give to them. 2008 has been wonderful – and we are looking forward to seeing everyone throughout 2009!

Best regards,
