MARCH / APRIL 2020 Easter Brunch Library of Orioles & Egg Hunt Congress Tour Opening Day A PLATINUM CLUB Spring is an invigorating time in Baltimore; why not enjoy it with the best view in the city? The Center Club is your place to gather with colleagues, relax with old friends and new, celebrate family milestones and enjoy exceptional food and service as well as engaging special events and programming. Hope springs eternal as we welcome Major League Baseball downtown for the Orioles 28th year at Camden Yards with March 26 as Opening Day against the New York Yankees. There’s no better place for a pre-game meal or snack than the Orioles Pub at The Center Club. I look forward to seeing fans throughout the season, as well as the dependable “How ‘bout ‘dem O’s?” conversations in our elevator. Patricia “PJ” Mitchell Throughout March and April, look for Intraclub meetings and Interest group President gatherings, including Executive Forums, Spanish Roundtable, Healthcare Connections and more. In addition to several outstanding speakers, there is a Viewpoints Lunch Drop-in scheduled for Thursday, March 12 beginning at noon. Come to meet and enjoy time with some of the most accomplished and interesting women in the Baltimore area. Take your own “spring break,” even if your college days are long behind you. The Center Club is a great place for a break in your workday. (Never fear— we have excellent Wi-Fi and a Business Center to keep you connected). By the end of April, lively campaigns will culminate with a primary election of great consequence to our city and our nation. No doubt there will be many a respectful discussion over cocktails or dinner at the Club. The Center Club has long been a place of civil discourse and a deep commitment to Baltimore. This election year will be no exception as we seek visionary leadership for this city that we cherish. Cheers! BOARD OF GOVERNORS Patricia J.
