Idea Fair
Garden Month
How has this idea enhanced your club's operation, etc.?
Each September, Chevy Chase Club celebrates Garden Month by highlighting the beauty of our gardens with a month-long series of themed events, workshops, and special menus. This year, we introduced a Garden Month email series to enhance the celebration with interactive content for our members. Each week, we shared curated videos and articles, offering a behind-the-scenes look at the horticulture team’s work and their collaborations across the property, including with the culinary department.
How was this idea implemented, and what have been the club members' reactions?
As one of the Club's most cherished features, the gardens spark strong engagement, as many members are passionate about their beauty and its upkeep. The series further strengthened member’s bond with the gardens and fueled their enthusiasm for this beloved aspect of the club and our most sacred amenity.
