The
Management's Official Statement
The
Valley
Club
is deeply troubled by the recent allegations of racism which are
completely untrue.
We had originally agreed to
invite the camps to use our facility, knowing full well that the
children from the camps were from multi-ethnic backgrounds.
Unfortunately, we quickly learned that we underestimated the capacity
of our facilities and realized that we could not accommodate the
number of children from these camps. All funds were returned to the
camps and we will re-evaluate the issue at a later date to determine
whether it can be feasible in the future.
Our
Valley
Club
deplores discrimination in any form, as is evidenced by our
multi-ethnic and diverse membership. Whatever comments may or may not
have been made by an individual member is an opinion not shared by The
Valley
Club
Board.
