Greetings!

It's hard to believe May is here already, and we are busy preparing for the summer season. Our programs and summer camp registration are in full swing.  Spaces are limited, so sign up soon, as some programs are filling quickly. The Outdoor Waterpark will be opening this month, on Saturday, May 25th.  We look forward to seeing you pool side in less than a month!

Outdoor Tennis Court Reservation Policy: Beginning Monday, May 6th, outdoor court reservations will begin.  Courts may be reserved 24 hours in advance at the front desk.  At the time of play, one person from the group will be required to come into the club to secure the registration, by leaving their keys with the front desk staff.

Outdoor court reservations will be given a reservation slip with all players listed.  Non members playing will be required to pay the $12.00 tennis guest fee.  Please remember, male tennis players are required to wear shirts on the outdoor courts at all times. 
Ladies Lagoon Adventure ~ Judgement Free Zone!
obstacle play park holly  
This is a women's only event for ages 18 and up to try out the Climbing Wall, Obstacle Play Park and indoor waterslides. 

Friday, May 17th ~ 10:30am - 12:00pm
Reservations can be made through the Concierge or Front Desk. 
Dog Safetydog in car
As the weather eventually turns warmer, please do not leave your animals in a parked car.  This raises many questions and concerns among our membership when we are not able to locate the owner in the club.  As a result, the police may be called.  We certainly want both you and your pets to be healthy and safe.  Automobile temperatures can very quickly rise to dangerous levels; the average temperature increase in a parked car is 40 degrees, and the majority of this increase occurs in the first 15 to 30 minutes. When it's 80 degrees outside, your car will be a staggering 114 degrees, after 30 minutes! Worse still, dogs can't cool themselves down as easily as people, and once they overheat, they can suffer extensive organ damage or die.  We appreciate your attention to this matter.
