Guest Information Future Members
Guests, aka future members, are welcome at Orchard Hills when invited and accompanied by a Member. We ask guests follow these simple guidelines.
The following dress requirements are applicable to all members, guests, and children. The requirements apply to the Golf course, driving ranges and practice facilities. While it is unreasonable to expect that every type of golf shoes and clothing will be covered in the following guidelines, it is expected that members and their guests will use good judgment and will ensure that their attire is clean, neat, in good repair and conforms to the conventions and traditions of a fine private club. To avoid potentially embarrassing situations, members are responsible for always ensuring their guests’ adherence to the dress code.”
PROCEDURE
Any concerns about proper attire will be addressed only by the Club Pro, House Manager, or Director of Club Operations in a sensitive manner. Members are responsible to dress fashionably on the golf course while in compliance with the dress code. Members are not to address other members directly.

BREACHES OF DRESS CODE
The Management is fully trained and familiar with the Dress Code and will maintain a tactful and appropriate approach to members and their guests should a Dress Code infraction be noted or be brought to their attention. Under no circumstances should members confront breaches of the Dress Code on the part of other members or their guests. If necessary, such breaches should be discreetly brought to the attention of management.
Persons in breach of dress code will be asked to change their attire into approved clothing before entering the Club House, Golf Course, driving range and practice facilities.
Small Men’s and Ladies’ Locker Rooms are available to change clothes.
Guests for golf purposes fall into two categories: Local and everyone else. Local guests, those residing within 50 miles of the club may play once per month. No round limit exists for guests residing more than 50 miles from the club.
Members are allowed to bring three guests to play golf every day and time except weekend and holiday mornings when a member may only bring one guest. Members must play in the same group with their guests.
We are confident that you will enjoy your time at Orchard Hills.
