4th of July Festivities
 The holiday weekend will soon be upon us. Make sure your plans for the 4th include the MAC. The Club is offering terrific dining opportunities, awesome seats for the parade and the coolest pool party in town. The Downtown Clubhouse will be busy with lots of action on Saturday, July 3, and Sunday, July 4 with Fair St. Louis. Avoid the gridlock of traffic after the fireworks by staying overnight at the MAC. Also, stay overnight and be the first to get a choice spot for the parade. Remember that many streets close for the parade starting at 6:30 a.m. Overnight guests pay only $10 to park in the garage. After a day at the fair head to West to celebrate by the pool.
