At the Montauk Club - January 2020

The year is going, let him go;

Ring out the false, ring in the true.

- Tennyson

Club clock 1

Welcome 2020!!

As the bells rang in 2020, so too did the chimes of the Club's beloved grandfather clock. Recently sent out for repair, the clock's mechanics were re-installed just days before the new year arrived.

The clock has rung in the new year at the Club for 110 years. It was donated by members in 1909 in gratitude to Club president William English (1908-1931).

The clock's repair was also made possible through the generous contributions of several of our current members. We extend our thanks to members: Paula & Earl Black, Mel Brender, Ginny & Kevin Brooks, Louis Fontana, Allan Kramer, Phoebe & Steve Radacinski, Betty & Tim Thompson, and Dino Veronese.
