G E N E R A L M A N A G E R ’ SCorner

Let me be among the first to wish each and every one of you a Happy New Year, 2010. I do hope it will be a healthy, happy and prosperous one for all. For me, the advent of the New Year always brings a sense of anticipation for one of our great annual traditions — the Robert Burns Supper. I’m therefore going to make it the focus of this issue’s column.

Mark your calendars now for our Annual Robert Burns Supper on Friday, January 22, 2010. Anyone who has attended any of our past Burns Suppers will tell you that they are a wonderful evening of fellowship accompanied by fine food and spirits, inspiring music and poetic reflections that are all part of the legacy of the “Ploughman Poet.” The Burns Supper has been a personal effort on my part that sprung out of a visit my wife and I made to Scotland in the summer of 2001. During that visit we stopped at the Burns House in Dumfries, and learned a bit about the traditional celebration of the Bard’s life. I walked away thinking we should give it a try at the Penn Club. Our first Supper in January of 2002 was attended by sixteen hardy souls. Each year, the attendance has grown, and we now have close to one-hundred celebrants in our Main Dining Room.

On occasion, I’ve had members ask me what Robert Burns had to do with the University of Pennsylvania. My stock answer has been that, short of a few volumes in the Penn Library, Burns had nothing to do with Penn. It’s just a wonderful excuse for a great party. This year I decided to Google Robert Burns and Benjamin Franklin together. To my surprise, someone has written an essay entitled “The

Burns-Franklin Connection.” In the course of three pages, the writer manages to point out that though their lives overlapped, they never met one another. Their only physi-cal connection was that the two of them visited the Car-ron Iron Works on the Forth above Edniburgh on separate occasions. It was at the Carron works that Franklin was introduced to the cast iron cook stove that would bear his name in the Colonies, and it was the manager of the Car-ron works who provided the struggling Scots poet with a home and employment as a customs inspector in nearby Ayrshire. While this connection is perhaps a bit obscure, it is a fact that both Burns and Franklin shared a belief that society could only be improved through abolishing the British caste system and establishing wider political and economic freedoms. So, there’s the Penn connection!

Believe me, this sort of rambling thought process be-comes extremely provocative when the pipes are playing and the Single Malt Scotch is flowing. I do hope many of you will join us for what has become a memorable eve-ning of warm friendship, shared talents and intellectual stimulation. In essence, these are the attributes that define what a private club represents!

My staff and I look forward to being a part of your continu-ing Penn Club experience throughout the coming year. We are committed to providing you with an outstanding Platinum Club experience. We hope to see you often at the Penn Club, your home-away-from-home in New York.

Penn club “Pink Slip” tuesdays | 3rd Tuesday of each month—December 15th, January 19th. 4–5:00 p.m. With job losses mounting, the Penn Club is offering an opportunity for job seekers and those under-employed to meet in the Living Room on to network, talk about potential job opportunities, and garner support during these challenging times. Come gather with fellow members, whether you’re looking for work or if you are a professional who has gone through a lay off and wants to share how you overcame it! Each session, we welcome a special guest who can help members get closer to snagging that perfect job. On December 15th, we welcome Ian Miller, an organizational consultant with extensive experience in family business consultation; leadership development and executive coaching; group process and team building; as well as designing and applying organizational change programs. Ian’s background is in clinical psychology, psychoanalysis, and organizational behavior. He is a professor in organizational psychology at Baruch College in Manhattan as well as Baruch’s International Executive Programs in Taiwan and Singapore. Ian’s topic, “The Working Knowledge Initiative”, focuses on his current project — creating entrepreneurial businesses from development of the “knowledge assets” of underemployed professionals. On January 19th, Business and Transition Coach, Carol E. Vinelli, will lead discussion. She uses a values assessment tool to help her clients align their career interests with their values. She will be available to discuss how the tool can help job seekers define a clearer path to a more purposeful career. Please RSVP for headcount purposes: events@pennclubny.org.

robert Burns Supper |Friday, January 22nd, 6:00 p.m. cocktails; 7:00 p.m. din-ner. The Penn Club will honor the spirit of Scottish poet Robert Burns at a traditional celebration of Burns’ birth-day. Not to be missed – but certainly not for the faint-hearted—the evening will also include the parade of the Haggis, accompanied by reading of Burns’ poem “Address to a Haggis”—a mainstay of many Burns dinners. For the uninitiated, Haggis is a Scottish pudding comprised of organ meat, oatmeal and onions, traditionally cooked in a sheep’s stomach, which is ceremonially sliced open with a sword at Burns dinners. It is said to be an acquired taste. Fortunately, the rest of the evening will include a Scot-tish-inspired menu that would have caused Burns himself to wax poetic. Rest assured that the Penn Club will have enough fine Scotch whisky on hand for you to invoke your own poetic impulses. Menu is as follows:❖Smoked Scottish Salmon Fillet, Fried Asparagus and Watercress Sauce❖Cock-a-Leekie Soup❖Grilled Aberdeen Beef Filet Mignon, Taters and Neeps and Scottish Beer Sauce❖Trifle with Drambui and Strawberries$74.00 per person, plus tax and gratuity. For reservationscall Tony Kontos at 212.403.6628. Please note there is a 48-hour cancellation policy in effect for this event.
