PRESIDENT’S LETTER
Dear fellow members,
The Club’s annual Slide into Summer Social was a tremendous success! It provided a special opportunity for our members to socialize and kick off the season in style. I want to commend our staff for their outstanding efforts and the fantastic food and drink options they provided. A special thanks to DJ Kearney, Director of Wine and Beverage Manager, Owen Stuart for their diverse offerings they sourced from our sponsors. TCC has an exciting lineup of events for the next three months, which you can find starting page 4.
Are you a coffee or tea enthusiast? Keep an eye out for our TCC branded reusable coffee cups around the Club. This initiative reflects our commitment to reducing waste and promoting sustainability by minimizing the number of disposable cups that end up in landfills. By using these reusable cups, we are taking a step towards creating a more sustainable and eco-friendly organization.
As we reach the midpoint of my one-year term as President of the Club, I’m proud of the progress we’ve made. Our Club Rooms provide a fully licensed space for work and socializing. We have unveiled our new patios for the Grill and Fitness Centre, which not only look amazing but were completed within budget. Additionally, our secure bicycle storage will be available for members to use very soon. More details will follow.
Your Board always prioritizes the membership experience in every project we undertake. It has been rewarding to see our initiatives come to fruition, and I can’t speak highly enough of the work our Board and staff have done. I look forward to the next six months and the continued growth of our club.
We strive for a healthy and active membership base that is engaged with the Club. If you know prospective members, please reach out to [email protected]. For every successfully balloted Resident or Corporate member you refer who is balloted into the Club, you’ll receive a $250 credit on your account.
In the fall, our Nomination Committee will reconnect with the Annual General Meeting scheduled for Monday, December 11. Keep an eye out for an official call in September’s newsletter from our Nomination Committee. If you have a candidate in mind or feel you would be a good fit for our Board, please contact us via [email protected] to learn more about the time commitments and processes involved.
Our GM & CEO, Peter Jackman, recently chaired the City Club Summit organized by the Club Manager Association of Canada in New York City. The delegation including TCC Chef Dan Creyke visited nine clubs in the Big Apple. They have returned with several exciting ideas to enhance our own Club, and I look forward to seeing these ideas come to life.
As you can imagine, our Grill patio fills up quickly. We encourage you to book a reservation in advance to secure your favorite spot this summer. You can do so through OpenTable, by emailing [email protected], or by texting 604-200-2279. Our team is always ready to assist.
Speaking of patios, the Fitness Centre deck is a fantastic place to exercise throughout the summer. We have added cardio equipment and a punching bag, providing a terrific workout spot, weather permitting.
This newsletter covers July and August, so you won’t hear from me until September. I hope your summer is filled with vacations, patio visits, sunshine, and quality time with loved ones. To stay informed about events and member news, remember to subscribe to the TCC News.
Until next time, take care, enjoy the sunshine, and don’t forget your sunscreen!
Sincerely,
Julia Yan
President, Terminal City Club
