And is it affordable for the newly unemployed feds?
I have always loved the ability for DCUM's to read the room.

I agree. Feel the same.
On that note, I do feel left out. My kid goes to public school but literally and third of her classmates families are Members at the local club. The kids talk about it all the time - the parties and special events. Sometimes friends invite her. Lately she just asks if we can go to whatever event/party she has heard about. It sucks.

Fixed that for you.
I’ll fix it again. Kenwood has plenty of non-Christian and non-white members. There’s a Hanukkah party too. Perhaps you’re thinking of 50 years ago. Bethesda has changed, and do have its institutions.

I have live here a long time, belong to clubs and visit nearly all of them from time to time to play. NOBODY uses the phrase 'big three' related to CCs. You can take that BS to the private school forum.
