The founders understood that for the Tiffany Club to become a viable, dynamic organization it needed a sound financial basis and a permanent meeting place close to Boston. Both conditions could be met by owning or renting a house and renting rooms to members of the community. The rent receipts would pay the house rent, or mortgage, and the dues would pay for other necessities. The Search Committee, club members Delores Kereher and Diane Berry located a suitable facility at 678 Boston Post Road, Weston, Massachusetts. Occupancy commenced in October 1979. Membership began increasing due in large part to the Club’s location, the friendly environment created by the members, the well-attended monthly parties, and response to sales of the Tapestry and to ads in the Boston Phoenix. Security screening of visitors and prospective members was conducted in the parking lot at the Red Coach Grill located on US Rte 20 at the Weston/Wayland town line. The Red Coach Grill was later renamed Hillary’s. It is now the Coach Restaurant.
