A Spring Awakening

Spring In The Rockies

The negative consequences of the pandemic are still working their way throughout society, and our City Club community has not been spared. This may have particularly affected the fun factor of our club, forcing us to lean more toward intellectual pursuits. 

It is with great pleasure, then, to report that City Club’s 19th-anniversary party last Friday night was a fabulous engagement on all fronts. We hosted approximately eighty attendees, including members, spouses, and guests, who partook in great food and exotic drinks, with member Jeremy Ciampa’s saloon Jazz band setting the mood. It was a joyous occasion appreciated by all, whether it was a smiling Nineteen-year-old Lauren Gould soaking it all up or our own 95-year-old legendary Oak Thorne banging out tunes on the piano during band breaks.

They say a man can live a month without food and a week without water but not a day without hope. Let us honor Spring as we celebrate hope, whether that be in the form of more light, new life, the Persian New Year, Easter, or the potential for one’s destiny to morph from anguish to rejoicing, from hardship to comfort, from war to peace as taught in the story of Esther as we celebrate Purim this year. 

Spring’s growth this year has been marked by adding fifteen new members, translating to one new member per week. Particularly impressive is the quality of each such addition, the cumulative effect of which adds immeasurably to the quality of our community. 

Back to the fun element, City Club is planning to host the season’s first garden party on Friday, May 17th, to welcome our new members and provide our current members the opportunity to meet and embrace them. Meanwhile, let us also enjoy this new growing season as we behold the beauty of Highland’s award-winning gardens.

More details on the May 17th garden party event will be provided later. Meanwhile, please book this date, plan to invite friends and family members, and get to meet our outstanding new members.
