This photo is a composite done for the St. Joseph County Democratic Party’s 2005 Dyngus Day and Solidarity Day flyer celebrating the history of these two observations in South Bend. The picture on the right was taken several years prior to 2005 at the club.

Our October 15, 1960 Menu for the official “Thirtieth Anniversary and Mortgage Burning Banquet” held at the club. Notice our mortgage was for $50,000.

Our Club circa 50’s & 60’s. We are in the process of starting a Beautification Project. We’ve just begun and we’re hoping to do some great before & “afters” for everyone to see. We even have a committee!
