How much are the monthly fees to join? Went for the first time the other day, and loved it. Any info would be appreciated.
 
I was a member for a while. Regular dues were like $70 a month, I think, but they had a "junior membership" that was half of that until you turned 35. Any expenses for meals and functions were billed on top of your dues but there were no annual minimum food charges or anything like that. If you were having an event, say a party or wedding reception or something, you got the use of the facility for free and just paid for food & drinks.

Overall it was great. The food was outstanding - particularly the chicken fried steak of all things, which was a lunch special one day a week (Thursday maybe? can't remember). Service was top notch. Prices were a little high but not excessively so. Great "clubby" bar on the main level. If you live or work nearby or have clients you entertain regularly, it's worth it. The Christmas party was cool but for the most part their other club functions were mainly geared toward the older members. Once I hit the magic age I couldn't justify the dues so I dropped out, but I'd recommend it highly if you're in a position to take advantage of everything the club has to offer.
 
Been a member for over 20 years. Go there regularly for Easter, Mother's day, weekly lunches, etc. Junior dues are around $45 or so and over 35 is around $70. If you are interested in joining, I can sponsor you and get around the initiation fee (provided you are an upstanding citizen and can prove it
