mkg335:he Supreme Court under Justice Roberts seems pretty clear on the matter of applying state public accommodations laws to private clubs. Here's a brief excerpt from a study of a case in Minnesota:
Agreed Mark...but those clubs offering no public/state services or looking for tax breakslike 501C's, do not fall under such guidelines
From Wiki as it pertains to California: (I've bolded the relevant part)
Membership discrimination in California social clubs has been based on sex, race, religion, political views and social standing. In the late 1980s a successful effort was made in many of the clubs to open up membership first to racial or religious minorities and then to women. Strictly private clubs not open to the public and for which tax exemptions are not claimed maintain their right to discriminate on the basis of sex or race, and all clubs can discriminate on the basis of social standing.
A state law against discriminating in the service of private businesses was gradually made applicable to social clubs that engaged in commercial activities. Rules against discrimination were also applied where clubs were the beneficiaries of government in any way, notably through taxes or subsidies
