As Thanksgiving quickly approaches, we want to slow down and show our gratitude for the dedicated team members who make the Bay Club the special place that it is. And since Thanksgiving is all about family and friends (okay, and food!), we’re launching our annual Thankful Campaign here on One Lombard. We’ll be featuring Bay Club associates, and sharing what we love about each and every one of them. You may see a few familiar faces from your Club—and perhaps one of your favorite team members—so check back often to help us give thanks for the people who work hard to make the Bay Club a true community.
