    VYC members in the area are invited to attend this informative, one-hour meeting that takes place monthly during the season. Each meeting will feature a guest speaker who will address a topic of general interest to the membership. In this meeting, Hermilo Esparza, from the Save the Turtle Program of the Bandera Bay, will present, and answer questions about the program. Additionally, members of the leadership team will update us on progress towards our short- and long-term plans, as well as our financial results. There will also be a "town hall" section where members can address questions to the leadership and present their own viewpoints regarding the activities and direction of the Club. The meetings are conveniently scheduled to follow card days and precede cocktail hour.

  • 6:00 - 10:00  Pasta on the Board

    Pasta on the Board

    Straight from the kitchen, piles of pasta with sauce are placed on a large board the size of the top of the table, and diners rake as much as they want towards themselves and enjoy a tasty dinner. When more pasta is needed, the cooks pile more onto the board. Definitely a different kind of dining experience, this is a fun, as well as delicious way to spend a few hours. Live music by Irving will accompany the dinner.

    The price for this experience is $210 pesos per person.
