TYSONS CORNER -- The Tower Club Tysons Corner, a member of the ClubCorp family, recently unveiled the completion of its $2.2 million renovations project that brings a stylish new decor combined with expanded dining and social amenities offering members more opportunities to connect, play, work, host and celebrate.

The new and improved amenities – along with new innovative programming and a more robust calendar of events – set the Tower Club as the premier private business club in Fairfax County’s central business district.

The Tower Club is opening its doors to the public for their Reinvention Celebration on Thursday, April 16th from 5:30-8:30pm. During a presentation at 6:30pm hosted by actor Lamont Easter, three prominent members of the club and community representing the past, present and future of the Tower Club will be receiving honorary keys, a lifetime membership and a 25-year-old bottle of wine to commemorate the Club’s 25th anniversary. Recipients include founding member Earl Williams, Board of Governors Chairman, Dr. Gerald L. Gordon and Young Executive Society Board Chairman, Ryan Rauner.

The club will announce its charity of the year program, partnering with Stillbrave for 2015. Stillbrave serves the local community and the Tower Club leadership team. They were the first organization to reach out to the Club’s Private Event Director, Lindsay Rhoades when her 3-year old daughter was diagnosed with Leukemia last year. The Tower Club worked with Stillbrave for their Charity Classic in October 2014, raising $22,000. This year The Tower Club has agreed to raise the funds necessary to purchase 500 Stillbrave backpacks that will be donated to children in Fairfax County who have been diagnosed with cancer. Stillbrave CEO & Founder, Tom Mitchell will also attend and speak at the presentation.

“This is such an exciting time to be a part of the Tower Club and Tysons,” said Kara Carmichael, Tower Club General Manager. “As Tysons Corner, Fairfax County and Northern Virginia diversify and transform, The Tower Club is starting a new chapter too with a vibrant setting and a host of new amenities and programming that really match the lifestyle of today’s private club member.”
