Club Nights and Lunches

York IVC organise two Club Nights a month and additionally a Club Lunch. Club Nights are busy events to which a lot of members will go to and are an excellent opportunity to meet a broad cross-section of our members. At each Club Night there are two "meeters and greeters" who are there to look out for potential members and make them feel welcome. We know that it can be daunting to come along for the first time so if you wish you can call one of the meeter and greeters beforehand and arrange to meet them outside the venue, or just call the meeter and greeter to find out exactly where our group is located at the venue. At least one of the meeters and greeters will be a Committee member so you can see what they look like from this web site.

Sometimes we organise a meal out before a Club Night, which we would encourage you to go along to if there is one. Call the Membership Secretary for Potential Members for details. Otherwise Club Nights always start at 8pm. Arriving at 8pm gives you a chance to come along before it gets busy - the general membership arrive from 8.30pm.

We strongly advise you contact the Membership Secretary for Potential Members before coming along the but you can just turn up. The Membership Secretary can tell you the phone numbers of the meeters and greeters.

Club Nights are always on the first and third Thursdays of the month and you can see where they are in the top-right box on our web site and in our events diary where club events are in bold type.

The Club Lunch is usually on a Saturday afternoon and is at a different restaurant or eatery each time. It will always be organised by a Committee member. The Club Lunch is quieter than Club Nights and great if you're out in York shopping.

At the moment we use two city-centre York pubs for our Club Nights:

Tap and Spile

The Tap and Spile is located at 29 Monkgate which is very near Monkgate Bar. It's a very friendly and cosy pub inside and serves a wide selection of drinks including real ale. It's traditional that chips and sandwiches are provided by the Club at this event.

Stonegate Yard

New for 2010!

Stonegate Yard is located in the centre of town on Little Stonegate and occupies the premises used by Oscars until recently. Our first outing there will be in January 2010 and York IVC will have exclusive use of one of the rooms there. We hope it will be a success there.
