* - In order to qualify for the lower rate the membership dues must be paid in one of the two following ways.
1. Payment in full by March 15th 2008
2. Three payments: The first payment by February 1, 2008, the second by April 1, 2008, and the final payment by May 1, 2008 Missing a payment date eliminates the reduced rates and the higher rates then apply.
Notes:
1. Membership starts from the date of payment and ends in the Spring when the golf course is officially opened (when the permanent greens are opened for the year..... usually mid March). Membership is 'not' for 12 months from the date of payment and membership rates are 'not' prorated.
2. Rental of golf carts is 'not' included in membership.
3. Membership does not include maintenance of a handicap. Handicaps are not required as part of membership, however, most tournaments require a valid handicap and you will not be allowed to play in many scheduled events without a handicap. An additional fee of $34 is charged for handicap maintenance. Handicap cards are updated every two weeks in accordance with USGA rules. The handicap chairman (elected by the membership) has the authority to revoke a member's handicap if they do not comply with rules for posting scores.
4. Most member tournaments are on weekends. Adult Economy memberships are restricted on weekend play. They may play in the tournaments but would have to pay normal greens fees. (Junior and Senior memberships may play without additional fees).
5. Note: The Norwich Golf Course Authority reserves the right to schedule tournaments, competitions, events, and outings at various times throughout the year during which the use of the course may be limited to participants or otherwise restricted and for which additional fees are charged. The Authority further reserves the right at all times to close the course or otherwise restrict the use of the course or portions of it for maintenance and upkeep or when in its judgment conditions require this.
