Advertise in the Roster
Find out what many of your fellow Missouri Athletic Club members already know ... advertising in the annual M.A.C. Roster works! Club members have a long history of doing business with each other.

The Roster is an effective vehicle to promote your business to St. Louis' most influential business people and their families. The Roster not only contains the contact information for each M.A.C. member, it also features an impressive collection of advertisers who have found value in being a part of the publication. Because Club members refer to it throughout the year and utilize it as a networking tool, advertising in the Roster offers your business great exposure. E-mail Jim Wilson for more information at jwilson@mac-stl.org.

Hit the Roof Before the Game
M.A.C. Family Club to Host Rooftop Party

Everybody likes a little pre-game party, especially when it's a party on the roof. On Saturday, April 28, the M.A.C. Family Club has rented a private box to watch the Cardinals take on the Cubs (this event is sold out). Whether you are part of this group or are going to the game solo, stop by the Downtown Clubhouse for a rooftop party. Everyone is welcome! Load up on $3 bottled beers and complimentary dry snacks before heading to Busch Stadium. This event will feature a fantastic rooftop view, music and plenty of good company. The party starts at noon and will go until game time, at 2:55 p.m.

Help M.A.C. Kids Play at
