A lot of these social clubs will accept anyone who wants to join. They're mostly run by old guys who just want a clubhouse to hang out in. They almost never have much of a web presence. Just walk up and ask, they're likely to be friendly!

Thanks for the reassurance!

My family used to live on that street and go to that church. It'd be fun to talk to some old timers. I thought it was maybe a veterans hall, knights of columbus kinda thing, but wanted to make sure I wasn't like, accidentally walking into a mafia den

It's kind of a continuum from one to the other category there...

My friends and I were members of a veterans club for a few years, despite not being veterans. We were in our 30s and 40s and they called us "the kids." $30 a year membership, cheap drinks, Keno, talking shit with old-timers. We wound up moving to the other side of town but it was fun.
