Minimum Billing
To support the Food & Beverage outlets at the Club to include Turn house and To-Go orders, certain membership classes and categories (Golfing, Special and Non-Golfing), as determined in the Membership Plan, Rules and Regulations, are required to spend a set amount as listed in the fee schedule and such may be determined from time to time by the Club. For those memberships that do not spend that set amount, the difference between what is actually spent, and the set minimum will be charged to the member’s account using the food and beverage minimum schedule outlined below. The Club may from time to time adjust or suspend said minimum requirement if all dining rooms will be closed due to renovation or other circumstances. The Minimum policy applies to food, alcoholic and non-alcoholic purchases in the Club’s dining rooms, or as allowed at Club sponsored events, and at any sister facility owned by McConnell Golf. For Club sponsored events where the price includes entertainment or other fees, only the amount allocated for food and beverage is applicable. For banquets and catered functions, food charges for Memberhosted events will be applicable. For Member-sponsored events and other events where the Member will be reimbursed for all or part of the event charges, none of the charges will be applied to the Member’s minimum. Spending in excess of the required Minimum will not be carried over to the next Minimum period.
