The Club operates year-round apart from the Golf Course. Monthly minimums are a commitment to spend a minimum dollar amount in food and beverage purchases each month. The monthly minimum requirement is designed to maintain constant Club activity throughout the entire 12-month period. Consistent levels of activity aid in staff retention efforts.

Members are required to spend a minimum of $100.00 before taxes on food and beverage items monthly.

• Service charges apply to all minimum charges and are billed at 18% in addition to the $100.00 minimum.

Affiliated Intermediates up to age 35, Non-Resident Members, Junior Members, Honorary Members and Members on Full and Educational Leave are not required to meet monthly minimum food and beverage requirements.
 
Monthly Minimum Charges

• Only levied when a Member fails to spend $100.00in a particular month.
• The minimum charge will be added to the Member account in order to reach  $100.00.
• For example, if a Member spends $50.00 on food and beverage items for the month, a monthly minimum charge of $50.00 will be added to their account to attain the $100.00 minimum.
