A club which has been in continuous existence for at least three (3) years and which has been formed for social, athletic, or outdoor exercise purposes, and which has been well known during that period of time and which either through the financial records which it has preserved or through the financial or other institutions with which it has dealt, can show that it has been in continuous active operation for the three (3) year period, and which has acquired by lease or ownership or other kind of substantial control an establishment outside the corporate limits of a city or town and which is of such respectability and probable permanence as to warrant the issuance of an appropriate permit, may be eligible, although it does not have the necessary qualifications, other than those contained in this section, to be granted a retailer's permit at the establishment.
