Weekly luncheons cancelled until the fall of 2020
During this unprecedented time when the novel coronavirus is dominating our news, we remain firm in our commitment to the well-being of our Kansas City Mizzou Tiger fans. To that end, we have decided that it is in the best interest of our lunch guests that we discontinue hosting our weekly luncheons this spring. We plan to resume our regular Tuesday lunches before the opening Mizzou football season in the fall of 2020.
Our relationship with our Tiger fans is why a decision like this is so important during these uncertain times. Stay safe and healthy.
We hope to see you in the fall!
Sincerely
The Board of Directors of the Kansas City Tiger Club
