2000s to present

The process of recording and gathering oral histories of the Club from prominent members commences in 2003, and that process continues today through the work of the History Committee.

"Arlington Club – Where Leaders Meet" is published and presented to all club members in 2007.

The Clubhouse renovation is completed in 2008 at a cost of $2.3 million, Dagwell's is named, the library is moved to the first floor, and a celebratory event is held.

In 2010, Helena Barbey Lankton is elected as the first female president in the Club's history. The 100th anniversary of the Clubhouse is celebrated with "The Party of the Century."

The Heritage Foundation is established in 2013 as a nonprofit 501(c) (3) entity for the purpose of preserving the history and physical structure of the Club. A brewer's license is obtained – making Arlington Club the first private club in the country with that distinction.

The club celebrates its 150th anniversary in 2017 with a gala party at the Portland Art Museum for 300 members and guests who dine, dance, and recognize the amazing history of our membership.

In the late 2020s, the club continues to modernize and protect its clubhouse infrastructure by rebuilding the sidewalk bordering the building and replacing the roof and HVAC unit. The club also starts the process of updating the fourth-floor overnight accommodations.

In March 2020, the club is forced to close its daily operations due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The club leadership and staff skillfully navigate this worldwide crisis by offering takeout meals and virtual affinity group meetings.

The club emerges from this challenging time in 2022 by resuming regular operations and increasing membership.
