Cannon Dial Elm Club and the other Princeton Eating Clubs face increasing competition from lower cost dining and social alternatives offered by the University. More than in the past, Clubs are the highest cost option for students, and compete on price with each other as well as with the other options. That means that while students’ Club fees allow Cannon Dial Elm Club to provide the best food on the Street and an outstanding social experience for its members, those fees can now provide very little of the money necessary to facilitate the preservation and restoration of our historically and architecturally significant Clubhouse, and to do so in a way that helps further the education of students belonging to the Club.
Accordingly, Alumni Members’ dues are more important than ever in insuring the preservation of Cannon Dial Elm into the future as one of the premier facilities on the Street. Current priorities include continued maintenance and restoration of the building; and, in particular, repointing of the building’s exterior, a multi-season job; delivering more energy efficiency and cost savings by converting the HVAC system from steam to hot water; and upgrading the front walkway.
The Higgins Memorial Fund, named for the club’s benefactor Jay Higgins ’67, will continue to honor Jay by preserving the clubhouse and improving the members’ club experience. Significant increases in University financial aid support scheduled to start in 2023-24 should reduce the number of members who face difficulty in meeting their financial obligation to the Club, but we stand ready to help members needing help, within University guidelines. Cannon Dial Elm seeks members who will advance its goals of diversity, inclusiveness and a lifelong commitment to and engagement with the Club. Operated under the auspices of the Foundation, the Fund will help the club to attract and retain such members.
Donations to the Fund can be made in three ways: by clicking on the link above and typing in “Higgins Memorial Fund” where it says, “Add special instructions to the seller.” Via Venmo @cannonclub and designating that the donation is for the fund, or, by check made payable to the Princeton Cannon Dial Elm Foundation, noting “Higgins Memorial Fund” in the memo. Checks can be sent c/o Cannon Dial Elm Club; PO Box 7788; 21 Prospect Avenue; Princeton, NJ 08543-7788.
