area should be picked for golf balls. This equipment is operated only by trained employees. Please do

responsibility while under our care. These clubs should be treated with care and properly cleaned and
stored each and every time. All sets of clubs are to be logged out when the member needs them, and
logged back in upon arrival to the bag room. Upon return clubs should be:
