It was a fine tribute to the Club and recognized the Club\u2019s commitment to working with the youth of San Francisco for years to come.<\/p>\n<p>During the year the Club will commemorate its history with pole banners throughout the City.&nbsp; Plans are in the works for virtual and, hopefully, in-person reunions.&nbsp; A documentary is also being produced to show at future Club events.
