The MAC is not just a place for business, dining or athletics. It is a place for family. A “surrogate home” where families can come to spend quality time with one another and make lasting memories. The Club has a special Legacy membership program that allows member’s children who have outgrown their family’s membership at age 25, the ability to begin their own membership. There is plenty happening this month to showcase the value of an MAC membership. In the athletics department basketball is ready to tip off. The annual MAC tournament will begin in March and so will the NCAA March Madness tournament. Don’t miss SLU coach Rick Majerus at the Club when he discusses tips for filling out your bracket at “Bracketology.” We are now two months into the New Year. Many of you are probably finding yourselves falling off the fitness resolution wagon. Get back on track with fitness classes and personal training… Love is in the air this month. The Downtown Clubhouse is hosting a Valentine’s Ball on the 14th and restaurants at both Clubhouses are offering affordable and delicious Valentine’s dining specials.
