Happy summer
everyone! I
hope you
have been able to catch
at least one Tigers game this season.
I would like to give a big ‘thank you’
to Chris John and Tom Reaume for
conducting a successful Spring Bowling
League for the Intermediates. This was
used as an icebreaker for new members
just getting their feet wet within the
Club. This is definitely something we
will continue to do in the future.
The joint pool party with the Grosse
Pointe Yacht Club was also a success.
The ‘Saddle Up Soiree’ was well
attended by the DAC Intermediates.
One of our objectives at the beginning

of the year was to enhance
our reciprocal relationships
with other private clubs in the area. I am
proud to say that the Intermediates are
helping lead that charge.
Speaking of enhancing our reciprocal
relationships, we are gearing up for our
annual Intermediate Trip. As I
mentioned before, a large group of us
will be traveling to Chicago on July 22.
Activities include a Cubs game,
dinner and accommodations at the
Union League (#1 City Club in the
U.S.), as well as transportation to and
from Detroit in a luxury motorcoach.
We have linked up with the Union
League’s ‘Younger Members’ council to
join us in our festivities. This will be a

relationships with young professionals
similar to ourselves, in a different city. It
is my intention to host the Union
League’s “younger members” at our
Club, as well as the GPYC in the near
future. I want the opportunity to show
off our beautiful city, in hopes they will
want to come back and visit.
Be on the lookout for an exciting
new marketing piece initiated by the
Intermediates Council. It will serve as a
catalyst in attracting new Intermediate
and young Resident members.
