February is traditionally a very busy month at the Club. If you come here for dinner, please be sure to give your name to our Hostess for a table. Be mindful of our Wait Staff who have to navigate their way around the Pub with hot plates. Large parties are encouraged to dine in the small dining room. Tables cannot be moved together in the Pub to accomodate you, so please do not ask. Please watch your children and remember that they are not allowed on the elevator or the second floor of the Club unless accompanied by an adult.

Clicking it will bring you to the GAC Photo Albums which include Expansion photos, New Year's Eve photos, and photos from the Grand Re-Opening & Dedication. Please send us any pictures you have so that we can continue to expand our albums. The State of Connecticut requires that all club members sign-in any and all non members they are bringing into the club. If you do not comply with this law, you are putting the club's liquor license in jeopardy and you are also jeopardizing your own membership. The sign-in book for non members is on the desk at the front entry. Although we have a group of dedicated volunteers on the Failte Committee that greet and assist people entering the club, it is not staffed at all times. More volunteers are needed. It is a great way for new members to meet people. If interested, contact Sue Allen. |
