MUSIC BY: “LEFT TURN”
“Vocal harmonies wrap themselves around old classics and classic originals,
as ‘Left Turn’ brings you its rhythmic, passionate take on the world, politics,
love and loss.
Wilma Groenen provides the main vocals, supplemented by Mike Sheridan
on guitar and vocals, Jim Balfour on percussion and vocals and Gary Smith
on bass. This warm and intelligent quartet provides pleasure for both the ear
and the mind.”

FACULTY CLUB SUMMER HOLIDAY
The Faculty Club will once again be taking a short vacation break
from Monday, July 27 until Friday, August 7, inclusive. We will
return to regular service on Monday, August 10
The Club office will be closed most of this time but if you need to
contact us, please call 966-7777 and leave a message. We will be
checking messages frequently.
The Faculty Club will still be available for pre-booked functions
on the weekends during this time.
PARKING NEWS
Just a reminder that effective May 1 and until August 31 you can
park in the Stadium Parkade for a flat $3.00 exit charge (that’s
$3.00 for the whole day!). Also, after 5:00 pm and on the weekends
you can park in “R” lot (in front of Kinesiology) for the same
$3.00 exit charge. But please remember, the meters in
front of the Club don’t expire until 10 pm Monday to
Friday.
CLUB CLOSURE
I am sorry to announce the closure of yet another Faculty Club. The University of Delaware will be closing their Faculty Club due to
a declining membership and ongoing deficit concerns. Join Deb Wilson of PMA for
manicures and cocktails and on
the patio and help us raise funds
for Breast Cancer Research.
Call to sign up for your Manicure on the Patio. Deb will be
pouring her fabulous X-Rated Cocktail. X-Rated Fusion liqueur
is a combination of ultra-premium French
Vodka, blood oranges, mango and passion
fruit. Snacks will be provided.
The Cost? Your donation to the C95 Radio
Marathon for Breast Cancer Research.
Space is limited, so please call asap!
Bookings will be accepted in 15 min.
increments.
NEW PATIO FEATURES
Watch for an array of Pam’s fresh entrée salads that will be added
to our daily fresh sheet for the summer – great for the patio.
Ask Crystal about our house-made Iced Coffee and Iced Tea and
our “Baby Champagnes”.
