DARA Clubhouse Reopens 

>From the DARA Presideent:

DARA Clubhouse Reopens May 24, 2021.

At the DARA Board meeting held Tuesday May 18, the board voted to reopen the clubhouse for all normal club activities on Monday May 24, 2021 for Covid immunized members. In view of state mandates being removed, cases of Covid dropping and CDC recommendations that people can once again do more normal activities after having the vaccine, we have made this decision to reopen. Please be respectful of your fellow members when making your decision to come to the clubhouse. Remember this opening does not start until May 24.
