General Information Food and Beverage Food items such as wedding cakes or military ceremonial cakes are permitted at the club. Should you have any other requirements for your event, please ask our staff. For the safety of our members, all food and beverages are to be either consumed or disposed of in the club. Exceptions are made when unusual circumstances occur i.e. inclement weather that prevents many guests from attending. Party Bars There are two types of bars: cash and host bar. There is a $75 sales guarantee per bar for each hour. If your party does not meet this minimum, a charge of $25 per bar, per hour will be applied to cover bar labor. The minimum sales guarantee is 2 hours. Cash Bar: The guest orders and pays for their drinks. Standard lounge drink prices apply. Host Bar: The host/sponsor agrees to pay for all drinks served. Drinks are dispensed to the guest free of charge with the host/sponsor assuming responsibility for payment. A host bar can be set up with a predetermined dollar amount or time limit. The dollar limit amount will be annotated in the contract. A register tab will be computed until the pre-set limit is reached. You may bring in your own specialty wines and champagne for a corking fee of $5.00 per bottle with prior approval of management. No other beverages (non-alcoholic or alcoholic) may be brought into the venue. Beer keg sales are limited to bulk sales for off-premise consumption only. We also offer a designated driver program that provides free coffee, soda and juice to drivers you designate from your group. Dram Shop Theory: The enactment of the DRAM Act places a clear responsibility on the club and staff to not knowingly serve alcoholic beverages to any intoxicated person. The club staff is instructed to refuse service to anyone who appears intoxicated and to deter such persons from driving. This club follows and operates under the guidance of AFI 34-219, Alcoholic Beverage Program. The host/sponsor is responsible for assuring minors in their party do not consume alcoholic beverages. 1
Serving Times We pride ourselves in meeting the serving time listed on your contract. If, for any reason, you need to delay the serving times, please advise the catering staff as soon as possible to ensure quality, taste and visual appeal of your meal.for meal service requests outside of normal operation hours special pricing may apply. Management will work with you to identify those charges in advance and, if applicable, will clearly indicate the charges on your contract. Multiple Entrees To ensure you recieve the best experience, we will work with the host/sponsor by providing suggestions on the number of entree offerings and a color code for each entree that can be used by each attendee. The use of colored name tags, place cards or tickets helps the servers distinguish what entree to serve each guest. Normal color codes are as follows: Red: Meat, Yellow: Chicken, Green: Vegetarian Option, Blue: Pork.
