Ok, sure, this would work out since we have WI  FI Access all around the
outdoor property besides the inside of the  clubhouse, which I think I can
rent out for a few hours at a time, if letting the leasing office know in
advance of our meeting dates.
Thanks, for the suggestion; and please let me know if this would be the
consensus, if I should go ahead and block off renting the clubhouse on a
particular upcoming date.
Thanks, and I'll be in touch.

Hi, I'm all in favor of having the meetings up north.
Thanks, for any replies.

Hmm at some point maybe a meeting or two could be up north of the river.  I
know that is a big issue with some people but there's allot of blind and
visually impaired people up north too.
