Inspired by parental concerns and the boredom associated with South county, Scott and Teressa Droney, Jack Hunter and Lauren Hunter are in the process of creating a place where kids can be a part of a club, have fun, and stay sober.
Having grown-up in Oakville, my husband [Scott] remembered there being little to do in South County when he was a teenager, Mrs. Teressa Droney said. We realize that kids should have fun, but need supervision to ensure things dont get out of hand.
With that vision in mind, NV was created for high school students ages 14 to 18. Friday to Saturday nights from 6:30 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. members can enter for $10 and enjoy a night of dancing and socializing.
NV is run with a zero-tolerance policy and is heavily monitoring by a combination of policemen and parents. Upon leaving NV, students will not be allowed to re-enter the club once they have left.
NV was scheduled to open for business Oct. 16, 2010 at 3924 Lemay Ferry Road. However the opening has been put on hold due to issues concerning licensing.
Democratic County Councilman of District 6, Steve Stenger, is road blocking the grand opening of NV, said Droney.
Due to Councilman Stenger freeze on the licensing of the all teen-club in South Saint Louis County, NV may not open at all. The decision is still pending.
Please give us the opportunity to prove to you and our community that NV will be run with a zero-tolerance policy and will be heavily monitoring by a combination of policemen and parents. Upon leaving NV, students will not be allowed to re-enter the club once they have left. NV will be a members only venue. Teens will be told to enter in their names, parents names, phone numbers and address. If for any reason we have a teen not abiding by our zero tolerance rule, we will them remove them from our membership and tell them not to return. A safe exit plan for all cars leaving NV at the time of closing will be enforced. We are open to any suggestions that you may have for the safety of our teens.
Please give NV, Scott Droney, Teressa Droney, Jack Hunter and Lauren Hunter a chance to prove that this will be a great asset to South St Louis County
