Governor Murphy announced that golf courses are permitted to re-open on May 2 under strict guidelines and mandatory procedures.
In order to adhere to these mandated procedures and, more importantly, to ensure the health and safety of all players and staff, please follow these guidelines upon arrival to the golf course:
1) Park in a space immediately alongside a golf cart. This will allow you to be parked with at least one full parking space between you and any other car.
2) Once parked, please remain in your car and call the pro shop at (973) 293-0180 to check in and pay by credit card or debit card. The pro shop will be locked and cash transactions are prohibited. The putting green will be restricted to only the 2 golfers who are on deck.
3) Each golfer will remain in his/her car until the starter calls your cell phone and informs you that you are on deck. Once you’ve received the call from the starter, please load your golf bag onto the golf cart and proceed to the designated waiting area. Golf carts will be sanitized, but we recommend you bring your own sanitizer as a secondary precaution.
Thank you – be safe and have fun!
