8 WAC Magazine | wac.net from the Immediate Past Chairman Letter A year of community As my chairmanship comes to an end, I am filled with gratitude and fond memories of an exceptional year at the Club. ank you, all, for welcoming me as your Chairman and for your enthusiasm for the WAC. Together, we have accomplished great things this year. My theme for the year was community—to continue building upon this incredible WAC community and to do what I could to ensure that everyone who enters our doors feels welcome here. Over the past year, I have seen our community strengthen, whether that be through the camaraderie of sport, our affinity groups and club events, or over meals in our restaurants. We opened "1930," a gathering place for members to further build community. We also launched the WAC app, which has made it easier than ever to connect with the WAC and each other! I'd like to give a huge thank-you to our team members who day in and day out make this place so very special. It is no accident that there are more members joining the Club. Without our fantastic team members—some of whom have been here 40, 50, and even 65 years—the Club would not be what it is today, a welcoming place with something to offer everyone. I have absolutely loved every minute of my chairmanship, and my love for this club has only grown stronger. THANK YOU!
