When a child is undergoing hospital treatment, having access to some of the comforts of home can go a long way for the family. The Conine Clubhouse, located on the hospital campus, offers just that.
Conine Clubhouse, named in honor of World Series champion Jeff Conine and his family, opened in May 1997 to serve as a “home away from home” for families of children receiving medical care at Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital.
