Golf Course Update 2015 GOLF GUEST SPECIAL The entire month of January! Tuesday Friday It s the New Year & we want to share it with your friends & family! Guest Fee = $25.00 Cart fee & tax additional! *Guests must be with a member! 2015 GOLF HANDBOOK Available in the Golf Shop after January 15th! As most of you know over the past several years during the months of January and February we have maintained the policy of CART PATH ONLY. I am happy to report that in 2015 Bentwood will now allow you to drive your carts 90 degrees from the cart path to the fairways throughout the winter months. The reason for this decision is because of the timely rains we had in the fall and the acquisition of the water for the golf course. Also, with our members help pairing up together and abiding by the three cart rule, we feel that our golfers should be rewarded this year. We continue to ask you to keep your cart on the paths around all tees and greens, and all par threes remain cart path only as always. One other thing we would like you to do is, be aware of keeping all four tires on the paths when parking around the tees and greens. This really helps with the area around the cart paths and also prevents erosion and a constant battle with the ruts made by the tires. CLUB DRESS POLICIES Dress throughout the Club is casual attire in good taste, otherwise known as Country Club Casual. Swimwear, cutoffs, men s tank tops or the like are not allowed in the Clubhouse. Tennis or Golf attire is welcome in the Amen Corner and Live Oak Veranda. Sports attire, including shorts and tee shirts, are not allowed in the Main Dining Room. Gentlemen, it is requested that you remove your hats, visors or caps while dining in any room of the Club. On occasion, a preferred dress code will be provided for certain special events. Management reserves the right to over ride these policies at any time to accommodate diners. Proper attire and conduct is required of all Members and their guests at all times - in the Clubhouse, on Club grounds, on the Golf Course and all practice areas. On the golf course, shirts with a collar and sleeves (mock collar accepted) are considered appropriate for men. Sleeved or sleeveless shirts are considered appropriate for ladies. All shorts, men s or ladies, must be hemmed. Swimwear will not be permitted on the golf course or on the practice areas. All golfers on the golf course and practice areas are required to wear non-metal footwear. Thank you for your cooperation, understanding and pride in Bentwood Country Club.
