We built this because a remarkable amount of operational detail about America’s most private institutions is, in fact, public — and almost no one reads it. Country clubs file Form 990 every year. We read them so you don’t have to. Numbers are as filed. Nothing is imputed. Where a value is missing it is marked as such, never inferred.
