Maybe '03 or '04. Not quite sure. Everyone was up in arms about that one. LOL

I believe that it was $300.00 to join the club.

What did you get for the money?
How many people lived here at that time? Last edited by tomwed; 01-18-2016 at 05:40 PM. |

I believe you to commit to spending so much money per month.
Maybe 40,000 people give or take several thousand. LOL

Sounds like they tried the Country Club model. You pay for access, then pay for everything else, food, drinks entertainment. If it failed in '03 or '04 I doubt it would succeed in 16 or 17. Theory and desires are great until we actually have to open the checkbook. What we want and what we will pay for are usually miles apart.

We were living here when the members only Cattle Baron came about. We didn't move here til 2000. Cattle Baron might have been 2001 or 2002. When we moved here, it was Katie Belles up & down. We used to go upstairs next to the bar & shoot pool.

Katie Belles opened just about 1997. It was Katie Belles up & down.
After a couple of years, the upstairs was called the "Key Club". It was still Katie Belles, but residents only. Same menu as downstairs. About 2001 or 2002, they tried to transform the upstairs as more of a club. "Cattle Baron" would now be more of a private club. There was a fee to join & you had to spend so much money per month. That was short lived so they changed it to just more of a fine dining for residents. Of course, during these times, we lost our pool table upstairs. There were various changes to the downstairs throughout the years. They took part of it for Chicos, took the railings down around the dance floor, etc. We've seen so many changes. I remember when we would go to the seafood buffet at Hacienda Hills CC. The best ever. You had to wear a sport jacket to go there.
