The Tables Have Turned
It is Your Turn to Feed Mom
The best thing you can give mom for Mother's Day is the gift of togetherness and maybe a hot meal she does not have to cook. If you have a hard time making toast, the best way to treat her to a meal is to take mom out. Luckily, figuring out where to go is easy. Mother's Day brunch is a popular tradition in the United States and at the Missouri Athletic Club especially. Make plans now to treat your mom to a classy meal in one of two gorgeous ballrooms.

Eat and Run
Stop by the M.A.C. Before Cards Games
Instead of filling up on overpriced nachos and beer while rooting on the Redbirds, head to this year's games with a full belly. Park at the Downtown Clubhouse and stop by the Jack Buck Grille or Sportsman's Club for savory appetizers, sandwiches, salads or entrees. You can also sip on a cocktail or soda of choice. For your convenience, the Jack Buck Grille will even be open before Sunday games to serve bar menu items and drinks. Click here for the JBG's bar menu and Sunday open dates.
After fueling up, you can either walk or catch a ride to the game. A shuttle will run twice before game times. There will be no shuttles on Sundays, and some games may not have bus service due to member charters.
