No other club in Charlottesville offers our blend of

historic ambience, recreational sports, delightful

social events and exceptional service.

Annual events at Farmington mark the seasons

and shape traditions for generations of family

members. Let Farmington’s rituals, from our July

Fourth celebration on the North Lawn to our New

Year’s gala in the Ballroom, set the stage for creating

your own memorable traditions.

Whether you come to Farmington for our

outstanding sports amenities, myriad social activities,

or an intimate retreat from the world, you’ll appreciate

our rich tradition of hospitality.

Whenever you use the Club, know that we’ll take

care of all the details each step of the way. The only

thing you need to do is relax and enjoy.

Welcome to Farmington, an extension of your home and a place where you’ll share warmth, beauty and fun with those you love.

Spring kicks off our busy golf season, which includes

tournaments such as the Kenridge, Virginia’s premier

amateur invitational, as well as daily golf events and

clinics. The sound of rackets hitting balls fills the air

around the outdoor tennis courts as our members enjoy

the sun and a little friendly competition. Cap off a good

match by sharing lunch at the Grill restaurant. Our

culinary team finds inspiration in the season’s fresh,

local ingredients, and you’ll relish their creations while

taking in the views from our outdoor patios.

In spring, our grounds manager offers frequent

gardening workshops covering topics such as boxwood

pruning and container planting. In conjunction with

Garden Week, join us for a garden tour and luncheon,

and take home some tips for your own garden.

When the first daffodils bloom around the

Clubhouse, Farmington comes alive with social

events and outdoor recreation. The beauty of

Farmington in the spring is unmatched, as our

renowned Kousa dogwoods grace the grounds and

golf course with color and our extensive gardens

brighten the landscape. Farmington’s natural

beauty provides the perfect backdrop to popular

spring celebrations including the Spring Festivus,

our members-only party, traditional Easter egg

hunt and Mother’s Day brunch.

Spring at Farmington sets the stage for growing traditions.

Let Farmington make your summer planning easy.

Our Memorial Day Family Carnival launches

summer at Farmington, and the Club becomes

a whirlwind of activity with daily events for

everyone in the family. Drop your kids by the

pool for supervised fun in the sun while Dad

entertains friends on the golf course and Mom

takes a private tennis lesson. Then everyone

can meet up again for dinner at the Grill

before heading home, relaxed and happy and

full of stories to share.

No one does Fourth of July quite like Farmington,

where it’s become the can’t-miss summer social event

and a tradition for most member families. The day

begins with one of America’s favorite pastimes, a

golf tournament for the whole family. Celebrate our

nation’s independence poolside with cocktails for the

grown-ups and water games and races for the kids.

Then we welcome everyone to the North Lawn for a

cookout and dancing to live music before the best part

of the day: snuggling up on picnic blankets to watch

Charlottesville’s best fireworks show with an inspiring

Blue Ridge backdrop.

Summer camp is a well-loved tradition at Farmington

that gets children outside and active learning new skills

while making friendships that can last a lifetime. The

weekly day camp includes lessons in tennis, golf and

swimming, as well as camp games, arts and crafts and more.

“Today after just over a month of being

a member and having already played

in the Member-Guest Tournament in

June, I can only echo what my guest

said: ‘Paul, this club is true class.’

I hope joining Farmington becomes

the first step in my eventual relocation

to Charlottesville and me becoming a

resident member, but in the meantime

I plan to visit it as I often as I can.”

“After staying at Farmington, we decided

the time was right for us to join. Margaret

and I both enjoy golf and find your course

challenging and beautiful. You have a

wonderful fitness facility that we look

forward to using in our constant endeavor

to stay healthy. Last but not least, Margaret

and I love to eat out and know we will

frequent the Farmington Grill and bar.”

“Once again we experienced a

wonderful three-day stay and golf

tournament. Farmington is a true

‘experience’ and after almost 25

years, we still enjoy our visits so

much. So many improvements over

the years—the place gets better and

better. I have never seen nicer and

more personable staff!”

Take a culinary journey in the fall while enjoying the

ever changing views of the Blue Ridge Mountains from

the patio at NorthSide, Farmington’s adult dining and

cocktail lounge.

Farmington plans a host of events to coincide with

the University of Virginia football schedule, including

game-day golf events, dining specials and a shuttle to

and from the games. Gather together with alumni and

local fans to cheer the home team to victory.

Reconnect with lifelong friends at Farmington’s autumn celebrations.

As the leaves start to change around Farmington,

the golf course stays vibrant with fall tournaments

such as our Member-Member and Senior Memorial.

Take in the changing foliage from a blanket

spread on the North Lawn at one of our outdoor

concerts. You and your guests can enjoy a range

of musical performances by well-known local bands

and dance as the sun sets behind the mountains.

Winter is a time to gather your loved ones, come in from the cold and relax by our fire.

Let Farmington take the stress out of the

holiday season. Don’t worry about whether

your Thanksgiving turkey will be cooked or

your house is spotless. Book your guests into

one of our 40 guest rooms and let them

discover everything that made you fall in

love with Farmington: the stunning scenery,

historic architecture, and personalized,

attentive service.

Winter heats up with frequent casual social events

such as gingerbread house decorating and the yuletide

luncheons. Cross a few names off your gift list at our

week-long holiday bazaar, which showcases the work of

local artists. Let us wrap your gifts while you and your

friends celebrate the season at our holiday luncheon.

Take your mind off the winter weather with several

formal social events including the Christmas Dance and

Winter Festivus. Little ones love whispering their Christmas

wishes to Santa at the Children’s Christmas Party.

All winter long, our active members participate

in thriving indoor and platform tennis leagues. Our

personal trainers await your visit to the Fitness Center,

where they can help you design a workout program to

keep you in top physical condition for the spring’s busy

golf and tennis season. Then treat yourself to a relaxing

massage and feel the cares of winter melt away.

WINTERFA R MINGTON

Our Executive Chef and skilled culinary staff will take

care of the details while you focus on what’s really

important about the holidays: your friends and family.

So sit back and celebrate.
