About the club

The club was established in 1957. Today, the club gets together for luncheon meetings with guest speakers twice a month, plus it organizes annual events to enjoy ballet, opera, and spring training baseball.

In addition to club activities, the club's Scholarship Fund provides grants to current Ivy League students who require financial aid to support their education.
