Perhaps South each's most popular , club, Penrod's draws i students to the sun BY MARIE ANDERSON 22 Student Life From playing volleyball to dancing the night away, Penrodis Beach Club offered students a unique tropical experience. Penrodis, located on Miami Beach, was a favorite weekend spot for many college stu- dents. During the day, many people took ad- vantage of the Penrodis outdoor pool and hot tub, while a reggae band entertained on the patio. Drinks could be ordered from six dif- ONLY IN MIAMI ferent bars and served by waitresses wearing brightly-colored mini skirts and halter tops printed with white tropical flowers. On week- ends, crowds gathered to watch bikini and llhot bodyii contests, while volleyball was a constant activity open to anyone who wanted to play. Senior Brian Gilmore said, llI enjoy the versatility of Penrodls. I can sit by the pool and have a drink if I feel like relaxing. But, being the athletic type, I like to sweat-out a game of volleyball every now and then? After a hard day on the sand, beachgoers could walk inside to the sportsbar located on the lower floor of the building. The walls were covered with pictures of famous person- alities who had Visited the club along with pictures of volleyball tournaments held on the beach. For the hungry patron, pizza and snacks could be ordered while watching a game on one of the television sets located above the bar. Penrodls also provided View- ing of certain Hurricane athletic contests on a big screen television. Junior Michael Dubin said, llPenrodis is a unique club in the sense that you can enjoy the beautiful Miami weather and even watch the cruise ships sail in and out of port while enjoying a drink from a poolside bar. I espe- cially enjoy the bikini contests held there? Penrod,s also catered to University of Miami special functions. llI was there with the football team during the Orange Bowl? said sophomore Doug Mann, a trainer for the Hurricane football team. llPenrodsi hospital- ity was overwhelming. They cooked us din- ner, and we used the facilities all night free of charge. Its a really fun place to go. Thereis something for everyone to do? When the sun set, the main disco on the second floor of Penrodls came alive for a more upbeat Caribbean experience. The contemporary atmosphere included glass windows all around, a wooden dance floor, and a raised dance platform. A Penrodls disc jockey played music ranging from top 40 and dance music to re g gae. Bartenders, also known as llCaribbean Cowboysii, could be seen twirl- ing bottles and sometimes juggling. Junior Pamela Sahm said, llItis a fun place to dance. The atmosphere is much more intense at night, though its very casual during the day. Itis a nice place to relax and have a daquiria and get a tan at the same time? Junior Paula Kulka summarized the Penrodls concept very well. ltPenrodls epito- mizes the Miami attitudeafun in the sun- and drinks to boot? WITH ITS BEA CHFRONT location, Penrod's on South Beach is popular both at night and during the day. tphoto by Tracy Mackl
