PRESIDENT’S LETTER
Dear fellow members,
There’s an undeniable energy in the Club as we ramp up for one of the most energetic times of year. Fall is in full swing, and with it comes the perfect time to connect, celebrate, and enjoy everything your Club has to offer. Whether it’s catching up with friends over a cozy meal, participating in engaging events, or simply taking advantage of the Club’s many amenities, there’s no shortage of reasons to enjoy the changing season here with us.
On behalf of the Board, I want to express my appreciation to members who have introduced friends, family, and colleagues to TCC over the past year. Thanks to you, we welcomed 202 new shareholding members to our community in the 2023/24 fiscal year. The one-time subscription for new memberships is scheduled to increase on January 1, 2025, so if you know anyone still on the fence, now might be the time for them to contact our membership team: [email protected].
There are limited seats available to an exquisite Harvest Longtable Dinner on Thursday, October 10. Savour the rich, comforting flavours of fall; the four-course menu includes a divine parsnip salad, followed by confit turkey risotto and grilled lamb sirloin, and topped off with banoffee pie. Take a peek at page 4 for the full menu and wine pairings on offer.
Comedy Night in the Members’ Lounge on Thursday, October 17 features an incredible lineup of comedians: Katrina Bennett, Justin Nichol, and Damonde Tschritter. Headliner Damonde is the only Canadian in 35 years to win the Seattle International Comedy Competition and has shared the stage with legends Robin Williams, Tim Allen, and Bob Saget. If you haven’t already saved your spot, do it now, as space is limited.
Our annual gala is just around the corner and this year’s theme promises to be nothing short of spectacular. On Saturday, November 2, we invite you to step Beyond the Shadows. Enter our haunted manor for an evening of glamour and mystery. If you’re not sure what to wear, consult the style guide for inspiration. Traditional black tie outfits – such as tuxedos and gowns – are an easy choice, or you get all decked out in gothic glamour or eerie elegance theme with lace, leather, velvet, corsets, capes, and the like.
The Catering team has been working tirelessly on a busy calendar of fall and winter bookings. Availability is dwindling, so if you haven’t saved a date for your important meetings, retirement parties. festive gatherings, and holiday parties, contact [email protected].
Get ahead of your Christmas gifting this year by connecting with the team at Mink. We offer custom-wrapped chocolate bars featuring your company logo or a family photo. Plus, by downloading our TCC app (details on page 3), you’ll receive a 10% discount on Mink orders, and all food and drink purchases when the app is shown, will count toward your $275 quarterly food minimum.
Thank you all for your continued engagement and support of your Club. October is a time for connection and celebration, and I look forward to seeing many of you at our upcoming events. Here’s to a fantastic month filled with great moments and the camaraderie that defines our community.
Warm regards,
Nate Kube
Terminal City Club President
