Pine Hills and COVID 19

More Details

MANAGING CHANGE
Pine Hills Golf Club is preparing the club to provide you and our staff a safe and comfortable outdoor experience within the constraints of social distancing and overall health and safety during these unprecedented times. In order for golf at Pine Hills to be part of your regular exercise and overall health routine, we will all need to work together to bring into effect the following changes:

FROM US
• Our online booking technology allows you to pay for most items online prior to your arrival. Our goal is to provide you with a “No touch” processing on arrival at the course.
• On the course there will be no bunker rakes, no ball washers or garbage cans.  Large garbage cans will be located by the pro shop for you to use following your round.
• On course restrooms will be closed and no water coolers will be available.   Clubhouse restrooms will be available and frequently sanitized. 
• We will increase the frequency of routine cleaning, sanitation and disinfection of all locations, especially all common and high traffic areas and frequently touched surfaces.
• Our Pro Shop staff will provide clear direction to all golfers and will manage the groups to ensure social distancing on the putting green and first tee.
• The pins will remain in the hole and will be fitted with a raised cup filler to keep your last putt high and easy to retrieve.
• Appropriate signage will be placed outside the pro-shop and clubhouse entries briefly outlining the social distancing guidelines in place.
• Single rider power carts are available on a first-come-first serve basis.
• Pull carts and power carts will be sanitized prior to use. We recommend that you walk and carry if possible.
• We will not pair or fill your group with other golfers.…singles will be standby only.
• The restaurant and patio will be closed. Prepackaged take away items like sandwiches, chips or chocolate bars will be available. Initially, all food and drinks will be served from our snack shack window.

FROM YOU
• Book online or call the pro shop at 403-845-7400. If calling, please have your credit card handy so we can have credit card (encrypted) on file for “No touch” check-in.
• On arrival, try to send only one delegate from your group to the Pro Shop door at check in time. We are limiting the number of customers in the Pro Shop at one time.
• Be mindful of social distancing by staying at least two club lengths apart.
• Do not remove the flag or touch the cup (we will use raised cups to keep the ball in reach)
• Bring along a sanitizer or towel as the ball washers will be removed.
• Smooth bunker tracks with the back of your wedge or foot as all bunker rakes will be removed.
• Please walk and carry if possible, but single rider power carts and pull carts will be available
• Leave the flag in at all times.

MEMBERSHIPS
Memberships are available for purchase online (www.pinehillsgolf.ca) or by calling the pro shop to take advantage our early bird deadline of April 14th.  We are sensitive that individuals are dealing with their own set of difficult circumstances and if you would like to discuss payment options please contact us at info@pinehillsgolf.ca or 403-845-7400. 

We expect this situation to change daily so please stay tuned for updates as information changes.  We will abide by the requirements of the government but will need a great deal of patience from our members and guests to help ensure a safe environment for everyone.

We look forward to having you enjoy some fresh air and exercise at Pine Hills.
Stay well and be safe,

Pine Hills Golf Club
