LaMotte Immune Deficiency Foundation Keith Lee Brown Capital Management Julia Marciari-Alexander The Walters Art Museum FROM THE PRESIDENT Although I’m writing this note to you with snow covered ground still throughout the city, it is my hope and expectation, that by the time you are reading this newsletter, the grass will be beginning to green, spring will be in the air, and the Orioles season about to begin. At this same time, we hope to see those of you who live and work within walking distance of The Center Club far more often for lunch, happy hour, dinner or a quick stop with friends in our still new Orioles Pub on the 16th floor. Don’t forget how easy it is to pop over to the Club for a bite before, during, or after a game. And for those of us who still need to drive to the Club to enjoy its fine food and ambiance, it’s time to end our winter hibernation – time to come back downtown to our beautiful city and enjoy the most memorable and impactful dining and social opportunity in town. We hope you will come often to enjoy our new menus (and don’t forget, you can now split your check if you wish with your non-member guests who wish to pay by credit card). Seriously, can you name me a place that makes it easier to park (underground and complimentary at dinner) to enjoy a stroll around the harbor and a magnificent meal prepared by Chef Bannan. Andreas is eager to greet you this spring and the entire staff is ready, willing, and able to meet and even exceed your everyday expectations. We have lots of events and activities planned for your enjoyment. Please try our new cultural series featuring a BSO quartet on Saturday, April 2nd or any number of other events listed in our newsletter. Or give Vanessa, our Director of Catering, a call to plan your next family celebration or office event. Patricia J. Mitchell Ronald R.
