The building is almost always open between 6 pm and 10 pm on Wednesday evenings, and often later. When the weather is inclement, please call 617-625-2311 to make sure that there are people at the clubhouse before showing up.
The dumpster will be emptied every two weeks on Mondays (except on Tuesday when Monday is a holiday).
Please leave a clear path to the dumpster, and plenty of clear space around it on pickup days.
