Steve Hillis President MCC Happy Hour Tues. Fri 5-7pm 10% Off Drinks Tues. Night Family Night Kids Eat 2115Free w/ Adult Entrée F RO M YO U R C L U B H O U S E M A N A G E R November was as beautiful as I can remember in the past few years. The change of the leaves around the course and the comfortable temps made it nice to be out on the course and around the club. The décor is changing inside the club as well as we prepare for the Holidays and all of the parties that will come along. Please consider having your family in and your office friends also during the season so we can share some good times and make some memories together. We have a Weekend Brunch early in December and a special guest will be there to talk to the kids about their wishes for Christmas Day. We have a Christmas Ladies Night early in the month also to get Momma in the Christmas Mood. I am most excited to see what the Entertainment Committee comes up with for the Big Winter Wonderland New Years Eve Party. I understand NYE is quite the blow-out at the club. I may need a week off to recover. Keep your eyes open for any special s as we may add some more events, special nights and menu items during the week for you to come out and enjoy. Happy Holidays to everyone and I hope to see you at the club. Bill Wallace
