Worried about your membership if Club Management is transferred? Don’t be; we’ve got you covered! While the County con nues to operate the Club, we are con nuing to look for a third‐party vendor to take over opera ons. We want to con nue to see this historic facility remain open as a golf course. To do that, we need your con nued support and patronage. The County con nues to seek proposals from qualified individuals or businesses to lease and manage the Front Royal Golf Club. This process will likely carry into mid‐2018. If a contract is awarded, all members who purchase a 2018 membership and daily fees will be honored and/or reimbursed by the new management or the County will issue a prorated refund.
