The legend
The dinking got out of hand. So did we.
The Pro Shop opened by the gate in 1974, in the little white building where the tennis nets used to live.
It sold one thing, a rope cap with the motto on it. Anyone wearing one was a member. Some of them never learned the game.
Since 1973 the bylaws haven't changed. Neither has the bar.
The tell
You'll know a member across a crowded pavilion.
It's the script. Stiffdinks across the front, the same hand that painted the clubhouse sign in 1973. Nobody explains it. Members just nod.
The wall by the register
Every member is on the wall.
Since 1974, anyone who bought a cap got their picture taken by the register. The wall ran out of room in 1979. Betty added another wall.
