members' warm up tee and driving range
BBGC Members will continue to have access to their warm up area located adjacent to the existing cart barn. We will continue to have sand to repair divots along with signage stressing the importance of repairing divots in order to preserve the grass hitting areas and to ensure that the increased use of this space can be maintained throughout the entire golf season.
With golf cart and pedestrian traffic now able to access the driving range, we ask that Members return to using the warm up area prior to their round and visit the driving range when they wish to practice or hit golf balls for an extended period of time. The path to take from golf cart staging to the driving range is shown below.
Finally, the Member’s warm-up area is IRONS ONLY. Please do not use any clubs that can reach over the fence to the Turfgrass facility.
