A social or golf membership at a country club is so much more than just a way to play some golf, particularly for a family. The right club will offer many amenities and activities, beyond golf, to interest the entire family. A club can become the venue a family counts on to bring everyone together.
“There are events, programs, and activities for everyone in the family to enjoy, and it’s an excellent opportunity to make friends and build relationships regardless of age,” says Phil Anderson, General Manager of North Oaks Golf Club.
Golf has always been a great way to meet new people, and it can be a pathway to new experiences for your family.
“Families new to the area join specifically to get to know their neighbors,” Anderson says. “And that is made easy through club programming: junior tennis and golf summer camps, kids night out events, golf clinics and leagues, adult tennis drills, pickleball, wine tastings, and club committee involvement.”

There are always different ways to draw your family to the club, where people interact and form new relationships — or just experience things as a family. There are a host of year-round events to enjoy from outstanding brunches for Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, to Easter (with special entertainment), breakfast with Santa, and a Halloween Party.
If it is just dinner together with your family that you crave, many country clubs have multiple dining options with different ambiance and cuisine that can turn it into a weekly outing. Some even have to go curb-side service for families really on the move. Country clubs offer dining with some of the best vistas you can find and employ top chefs and culinary teams to prepare fantastic dinners. And the service at a country club is always second to none.
“In terms of the degree of the personalization, community feel, and delivery of services by staff who care deeply about providing extraordinary service every time a member steps on the property, it is unsurpassed,” Anderson says.

And there is no better time than now to get a social or golf membership at a golf club. We are moving into the peak season of golf and other activities at every club, and they are primed for this time of the year. At North Oaks, the past year has included some renovation of the club’s second patio off the ballroom.
So, what are you waiting for? There's a country club for everyone. Do your research and find the perfect fit for your family's interests.
