Shades Mountain Country Club

The Shades Mountain Country Club, originally Club 31, was a private nightclub operated by G. B. Parsons and Frank Tillotson near the intersection of Montgomery Highway and Canyon Road in what would soon become the City of Vestavia Hills.

One of the goals of incorporating, at least for Verner Adams, the city's first mayor, was to gain some public control over the activities at the club, which he considered, "nothing but a public nuisance".
