6 WAC Magazine | wac.net from the Chairman and President & CEO Enjoy the Club this season We are approaching the magical holiday season. It is always a time I look forward to at the WAC. e warmth of members, friends, business associates, and family coming together to celebrate with cheer, and the holiday decorations spread throughout the Clubhouse, bring a bright and enchanted atmosphere to the Club we all can enjoy. Jubilee, the WAC's yearly anniversary party, highlights the holiday season. is year's party will take place on Friday, December 1. I love bringing friends to Jubilee for music, dancing, entertainment, and a wide range of great food. Jubilee is also a great opportunity to show off your Club to prospective members. So please, invite your friends and join me in raising a toast to the WAC and the holiday season! A few weeks before Jubilee, GingerMania starts the holiday cheer, which continues with our annual anksgiving dinner buffet in the Crystal Ballroom. e buffet is another WAC tradition I have enjoyed with family and friends. e dishes prepared by the WAC team are excellent, and the energy created by generations of families coming together is palpable. For Christmas, my family loves the aura of Victorian Christmas at Torchy's, where the serenading Dickens Carolers leave everyone smiling. ink about the WAC as a venue for your holiday celebrations. I hope to see you at Jubilee and around the Club this season. Best wishes!
