Photo by Grand Lubell Photography President's Message Dear Member, At a Derby Day party, I spoke with a member who lives in the suburbs and has moved his office from downtown to Maumee. He wondered if he would continue to use the Club as much as he had before. Later, I remembered that this is Toledo where everything is just 20 minutes away. Going to Treo, Stella or the Real Seafood, all great restaurants, are within minutes of coming to the Club from anywhere in the area. That’s why it is so important that the Club continues to offer unique and tempting events during the summer months. As they say over at American Express, “Membership has its privileges.” Here are a few that Toledo Club members can enjoy this summer. We’re heading outdoors for some summer fun starting with our first Pig Roast on Friday, June 6. Roger is getting a special grill and Chef Mike has hired a local pig to attend the event. Throw in music and summer outfits and it’s starting to sound like a party. When I heard that Mike Goetz was planning a steak out for the parking lot, I pictured Car 54 with cigar smoke pouring out of the windows and donut boxes littered about. There may be cigars at Mike’s Steak-Out on Thursday, June 26. There also will be steaks on the grill, wine, and the usual suspects. We expect to see you in the line-up. The Blade’s RED, WHITE, KABOOM on July 4th will feature reserved seating and special dining for Club members. The reserved Toledo Club area will be at Imagination Station so Call the Club now for reservations. On July 15, we’re celebrating the birthday of one of the club’s iconic members, George Korhumel. The “Mayor of The Toledo Club” is also known as the host of the Famous Ramos Perch Fry which goes back generations. This year we are planning the event as a tribute to George with profits going to The Toledo Club Foundation in his name. Please mark the date and plan on attending to wish George a happy birthday. Another special opportunity for club members rolls around August 7 at The Blade’s Rib Off. Club mem- bers will enjoy special VIP seating on Thursday night to rock back to the 70’s with the music of WAR. You remember... “Slippin’ into Darkness“, ”Cisco Kid“, ”Low Rider“... and many more hits. Plus you can sample the ribs with your friends and club members in a special VIP area. The Party in the Parking Lot has been moved to September 19 in hope of enjoying more moderate weather. Try as he might, Social/Entertainment Chairman Mike Mori, has not been able to guarantee balmy nights in July. More to follow soon, so please watch for Topics next month. This knock-out list doesn’t include special events in the athletic area, the Sports Grill & Tavern or the Main Dining Room. As always, your reservations help us provide professional and efficient service. Committees and club employees work hard to create and execute these events, but they only succeed if you come and bring your friends. Please think of the Club this summer, then reach for your phone to call, text, or email your friends and say, “Meet me at The Toledo Club!” Thank you for being a member, President JUNE 2014 3 May aNNIVeRSARIes 20 Year Anniversary Paul M.
