September 17 Special Event
David and Lee Leith (174 Golf House Road, Haverford) have very kindly offered the use of their house for our September outing. It's a splendid location, just across the road from the 15th hole of the Merion Golf Club. Very private, splendid view, but very easy to reach. Horace Krumbauer, who designed the Racquet Club, also designed this house. I understand Tiger Woods will be wandering around the neighborhood at this time, but we can't guarantee you will see him.
The outing will be an early dinner, or late picnic, catered by Rudy, who was the chef at Corinthian Yacht Club for our dinners in earlier years. He's now the chef at the Franklin Inn Club, and is causing quite a revival of interest.
Saturday, September 17, 2005, at 3:30 PM.
Please, please give us an RSVP at 856-427-6135. If George Fisher doesn't answer, just tell Torie my secretary, or leave a message on the answering device.
As is customary, there is no charge for members, but we have to make a charge of $50 for each guest you bring along.
DIRECTIONS: Go to Haverford College on Lancaster Avenue. The main road into the College is called Railroad Avenue, which changes its mame to College Avenue. Just keep going on College Avenue, over a little humped bridge over the trolley line. Immediately turn left after you cross the bridge, and then very promptly turn right into a semi-hidden driveway at 174 Golf House Road. We'll try to tie a balloon to the mailbox at the entrance, if we think of it in time.
The only possibility for confusion would be to get on Golf View Road instead of Golf House Road, but they intersect; if you get to Darby Road, you've gone too far. If you're reading this, you must have a computer, so take a look at www.maps.google.com
