Thank you for your help with these items. SMOKERS We ask that smokers please dispose of their cigarette butts properly in a receptacle or in your golf cart. The littering of cigarette and cigar butts takes away from the aesthetics of the golf course. This does include around the club house as well. --------------------------- Please keep golf carts 50 yards from tees and greens at ALL TIMES and take your carts 90 degrees to and from the cart patch. 90 degrees means 90 degrees.
