PRESIDENT’S LETTER
Dear fellow members,
October is upon us, and with it comes a busy and exciting season at Terminal City Club.
The Gotham City Gala – November 1
The countdown is on and the Bat-Signal is lit. Less than a month from now, the Club will be transformed into Gotham City for our signature gala, with every room inside Wayne Manor revealing its own world of spectacle, music, and intrigue. From Bruce Wayne’s study to corners where rogues might lurk, the night promises surprises at every turn.
Fittingly, the clocks fall back that evening—an extra hour to stay in costume, embrace your alter ego, and enjoy what’s sure to be one of the most memorable nights of the year. Tickets are moving faster than the Batmobile, so don’t get stuck in the Batcave—this is one not to miss.
Comedy Night in the Lounge
An evening of punchlines and pints is on the horizon as the Members’ Lounge turns into comedy central on Thursday, October 23. Headliner Dave Nystrom has written for This Hour Has 22 Minutes and even shared the stage with Robin Williams. Hosting the evening is Adam Ruby, whose playful energy will keep the laughs flowing, and rounding out the night is Cass Furman, a rising star you may have caught on Just For Laughs. Easy atmosphere, big laughs—save your seat while they last.
Annual General Meeting
Looking further ahead, our Annual General Meeting in December is a key date when shareholders in the Club hear directly from your volunteer Board about the past year and the road ahead. The Nominating Committee is also reviewing prospective board candidates. In particular, we’ve identified an opportunity for a CPA or CFA with senior leadership experience in an organization with more than 250 employees. We are seeking candidates who can contribute strategically. If this profile fits you—or someone you would recommend—please reach out to gm@tcclub.com.
New Fall Menus & Thanksgiving in the Grill
Autumn brings fresh flavours to our dining outlets. Both the Club and the Pub are featuring new fall menus with seasonal ingredients, hearty offerings, and creative twists on classics. It’s the perfect time to stop by, whether for a casual pint or a fine dining experience with friends and colleagues. Thanksgiving also reminds us how fortunate we are to belong to such a vibrant and welcoming community. I invite you to celebrate the season with us at the Grill, where Chef Ansel Hendrawan and his team will be preparing a harvest-inspired fresh sheet for the occasion.
Subscription Increase for New Members
Our members are the heart of this Club, and it has been inspiring to see so many of you extend the TCC experience to friends, family, and colleagues over the past year. Thanks to those introductions, 182 new shareholding members joined in 2024/25—a milestone that strengthens our community. Please note that the one-time subscription fee for new memberships will increase effective January 1, 2026. If you know someone considering joining, now is an excellent time for them to connect with our membership team at joinus@tcclub.com.
Fiscal Year End
I am also pleased to report that we closed the fiscal year on solid footing. Our management team has done an excellent job balancing the operational needs of the Club with the long-term priorities of our membership. Their stewardship ensures that the Club continues to grow in strength while delivering exceptional value to our members.
As always, thank you for your support and participation. This is a vibrant community because of the members who engage, contribute, and celebrate together. I look forward to seeing many of you at the Gotham City Gala and around the Club this autumn.
Warm regards,
John Mackenzie
President, Terminal City Club
