  • DFC back to normal schedule for Tuesday, 12/28/10
    Eamonn G Lanigan, 2010/12/27 17:50:56

    We’re back to a normal schedule on Tuesday. The lot and sidewalks have been cleared and we’ll be ready for business. However, it is likely the walkways and parking lot will refreeze tonight, so please be extra cautious when coming to the DFC … especially if it’s early in the day before the sun has a chance to melt the ice.  

  • Thanksgiving Schedule Changes
    Eamonn G Lanigan, 2010/11/24 10:51:23

    A reminder that the club will be closed tomorrow for Thanksgiving. The locker rooms and tennis courts will be available, but the fitness room, lap pool, game room, and front office will not.

    On Friday, both the lap pool and fitness room will open at 9:00am, and then we're back to a normal schedule for the weekend.

    If you're itching for a little exercise before your afternoon gorge, come out to the DFC for a 9:00am Turkey Trot. Bagels, coffee, and hot chocolate will be available post run/walk/shuffle.

    Have a happy Thanksgiving!
