Library Dining We are pleased to offer to the members of the Club our commitment that we will offer luncheon and dinner service in the Library; Wednesday through Friday. If the Library should be unavailable we will relocate formal dining to another suitable room in the Club. When making a reservation for the library you will be informed if formal dining has been relocated. We try to avoid this as often as possible, but feel that the President’s Room or the Main Dining Room make marvellous rooms for dining with white linen and attentive service.
