GENERAL MANAGER'S MESSAGE | Continued
Electronic Devices: Voice use of cell phones is not allowed anywhere on club grounds other than in your car. Text messaging, checking email, etc. from your device is permitted. Electronic Devices include more than cell phones. All must be silent. And please be cognizant that how and when you use your mobile device impacts your fellow members and their club experience. For example, taking a Zoom call (even with headphones) is inappropriate unless you are in a private room. Dress Code: Every area/venue of the club has a defined expectation of attire. Fitness is different from golf; The Grill/Tavern is different from Pub37; The Main Lobby Entrance is different from the Grill lobby, etc. Collars, hats, short/skirt length, denim, t- shirts, and shirttails are all things that are addressed in detail. All members should be familiar with these expectations.
Event Cancellation: When an event is full, even with a waiting list, last minute cancellations are difficult to replace and deny other members the opportunity to participate. No-shows are even worse.
Corkage Policy: Personal selections are permitted to be enjoyed with dinner in the Dining Room, Tavern, or Grill provided that the wine or a similar selection is not available from the Club’s list. The spirit of the policy is to provide an opportunity to have a truly unique or special wine from your personal cellar to complement one of Chef’s meals. Typically a cabernet from California doesn’t qualify . . . Golf Course Etiquette: Issues to be addressed include Pace of play; Bunker maintenance; replacing/filling divots and repairing ball marks; adherence to cart restrictions and directional signage; proper divot patterns on the range tee and appropriate attire. And as a continuation of Electronic Devices being silent – No music. Member Conduct: Always follow and support the spirit of the published “guiding principles of member conduct”. This boils down to ladies and gentlemen conducting themselves as ladies and gentlemen, showing courtesy in its broadest, most inclusive form . . . toward your club, your fellow members, and your staff.
Miscellaneous: Parking lots are for cars; locker rooms are for changing shoes.
Here’s a few more thoughts. First, all these rules and expectations have been established by your fellow members. Individually if one or two aren’t followed, it wouldn’t appear to be a big deal. But that is a slippery slope. These rules have been put in place because collectively they create the atmosphere, environment, and experience that you, as members, wish to enjoy when you come to your club. They define your brand and are what make you proud to be a member. If after reading this you were left wondering about details or seeking more information, please start by clicking HERE to be directed to your club handbook. Or just ask me. Part of my job is to share information.
As always, I’ll look forward to seeing you at the Club! Enjoy your summer.
