Annual Father-Daughter Dance Hits its Stride

Traditionally, dads take their daughters to the Missouri Athletic Club's annual Father/Daughter Dance. This year Meghan Woodard decided to reverse the roles. As a young girl Woodard attended the much anticipated banquet with her dad. After becoming a member early this year, Woodard decided to return the favor and bring her dad to the banquet.

"It brought back a lot of fun memories," Woodard said. "It gave my dad, sister and I a chance to spend an evening together. Meeting people around the Club was also a lot of fun."

M.A.C. shuttle heads to Cardinals games
The M.A.C. will provide a one-way shuttle bus for all Cardinals home games, starting tonight, Tuesday, May 30. It will run continuously for one hour and 15 minutes before game time. No shuttle will run after the start of the game because of possible bus commitments.

Avoid the traffic and hassle that comes with parking near Busch Stadium. Park at the Club and grab a bite to eat before or after the game at the Jack Buck Grille.
Phantom Heads to the Fox
Seats available for Phantom of the Opera
Haunting music, a fateful love triangle and an erie, thrilling plot are all aspects of the highest-grossing entertainment event of all time. The Phantom of the Opera's natural suspense and evocative music keep theatre halls crowded, even in its 20th year of production.

In June The Phantom is returning to the Fox Theatre, and the M.A.C. has tickets for June 9, 15 and 23. Seats are still available but running low for all shows, except for the Friday, June 23, outing, which is sold out.
