Group Application/Reservation Rules

A group is a single gathering of 10 or more persons.  All groups must register at least one (1) week prior to the gathering so the Board and the Caretaker can prepare facilities and provide adequate security and lifeguards.  Registrations may not be made for the year until January 1st of that year, at which point they can be made on a first-come, first-serve basis.  

In order to reserve the Club House, Pavilion, or Lake House, email the Groups Committee Chairperson : Sue Sowa

Please include the names of those guests who are members in the application to provide a total count, even though there will be no fees for these individuals.  If you do not know if your guests are Club members, you can request a list from Shelly Thomas.  As guests check in at the Welcome Center, the guards will record the exact number that arrived.  You will not be billed for non-member guests on your list that did not arrive.   

Along with the guest list, you need to note any requests, such as extra picnic tables around the Clubhouse, a fire in the fireplace, etc.  The Club House currently has 8 tables and 64 chairs available.  The Lake House has 8 tables and 16 Chairs.  Tables and chairs cannot be taken from one building to another, but you are welcome to bring additional tables and chairs as required.  You are responsible for setting up and taking down the tables and chairs.  If you need more than that you will need to provide them.
