ALL CLUB MEMBERS
If you leave the club after the front door locks, push the button on the wall to your right and wait 5 seconds. If you have trouble getting it to open, ask me (Adam) or someone else to help you. DO NOT smash the door off the track like you’re in a ‘90’s action movie. It sets off the alarm and the manager of the senior center has to drive over. The chess club gets to meet there for free. We don’t want them to change their minds. Please be careful with the senior center’s property.
