Week of April 26 – 30, 2021

We will continue to follow CDC guidelines and require that all who enter the club will need to wear a mask. Thank you for complying.

The Community Outreach group will be organizing a neighborhood cleanup sometime late next week
dependent on weather.
Please contact Marisa Hoogenakker if you are interested in helping us keep the neighborhood around our club clean.
It’s a great opportunity to meet our neighbors and be

DWC Tour of Homes and Gardens

Mark your calendars for Wednesday, July 21 from 10 am to 4 pm. Since the club’s kitchen remains closed, planning committee members have lined up food trucks for Superior Street, where tour guests may purchase their own lunches. The DWC clubhouse will be one of the 5 beautiful homes on the tour, as well as 3 spectacular gardens. Thank you for helping spread the word that the tour is on, at a reduced price of $30. As the main fundraiser for the club, please say “yes” to volunteering to help make this reimagined tour a success. Ticket sales begin June 1, and CDC Covid-19 guidelines are being followed.
