As we move closer to the completion of our club's renovation project, I have some exciting updates to share. We have changed most of the lighting throughout the club and restaurant and painted the club a rich blue which adds a warm, nautical style and feel to our club. We have also added a beautiful custom made trophy case to display our many trophies, awards and photos with room for more! There is a relaxing lounge area and the Game Room tables and chairs have been changed to add more comfortable seating. We still have more to do but our goal of completing the project by the end of October is on track. VYC Opening Day and the Re-Grand Opening of Picante Grill will be Saturday, November 9th where we will showcase our newly renovated club! We look forward to welcoming you! Please feel free to invite friends and family to the Opening Day festivities. More information will be coming soon.
