My name is Arnold Penner and I have been a member of the Friars for over 20 years. The most inportant thing is that this club is a very important part of my life.

I am here almost every day for lunch and attend several of the functions throughout the year. I am a former board member and a member of the foundation.

In my professional life, I have been a real estate investor for over 40 years and have a great understanding of how to run a business, which the club acrually is. I think that this makes me qualified to be a board member.

My desire to be on the board again is that I want to improve the club to where it will become a premiere club in New York City. The Friars has a great reputation and I would like to help keep it that way. I would like you to vote for me.

Thank you

Arnold Penner
