Welcome to the The Pershing app, where the experience of our members is our primary focus. We have developed a custom app to enhance your experience on and off property. With only a couple of taps, you can present a digital membership card for staff. You also have easy access to detailed information about the club as well as beautiful photos from our events and facilities. There are even several ways to communicate with us, including sending in your compliments and comments, requesting a special event, and retrieving guest information. We hope you enjoy the digital The Pershing experience. Note: Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life. The The Pershing app will attempt to shutdown background GPS services when they are no longer needed.
Pongo Meetup

Pongo keeps your mahjong night on the calendar. Pick a date and time, invite your friends, and everyone says yes or no in one place. Track who is hosting, who is bringing tiles, and who is bringing a table. That is the whole job. No more "who's in for Thursday?" across a text thread that never ends. Pongo is friends-first. Connect with the people you actually play with, then pull them into a game in a tap. Play with the same crew every week? Save them as a group and invite them all at once. What you can do: - Propose a meetup with one date and time, and invite your friends. - Friends RSVP so the host knows who is in. - See who is hosting, who is bringing the table, and who is bringing tiles. - Chat with your group in one place, not five different threads. - Record who won after the night. Your games and wins roll up on your profile on their own. Nothing to hand-enter. - Pick the NMJL card year you play, and Pongo flags any invitee who does not own it. Built for American Mahjong (NMJL) and made to grow with other styles. Mahjong is a game with Chinese origins, and Pongo keeps that visible. We modernize the planning around the game, not the game itself. Pongo is free. No ads. No in-app purchases. Made for the host who keeps the night going.
