Lightning Policy
- Everyone associated with the game of golf should participate in ‘Lightning Safety’.
- We allow players to discontinue play if they believe there is a danger from lightning.
- A good rule for everyone is:
- “If you see it, flee it”.
- “If you hear it, clear it”.
- We recommend suspending activities when thunder and lightning are in the area.
- Flee to a safe place. Where is a safe place?
- Go to a large permanent building of a fully enclosed metal vehicle (car or van);
- Avoid trees since they attract lightening;
- Avoid small on-course shelters. They are intended for rain shelter;
- Don’t wait around for the next lightning strike.
- The Pro Shop will blow the horn when lightening is in the area.
- Our employees will suspend duties when lightning is in the area.
- In a competition, mark you ball and leave the course immediately.
