Lightning Policy
 

RiverEdge management and staff consider your safety the top priority during inclement weather. Weather reports, radar screens, and the skies are all monitored diligently during storm watches and warnings. If we decide it is unsafe to continue to golf as a storm approaches, the ProShop attendant will sound a horn to call all golfers off the course and into the clubhouse.

*RiverEdge Golf Club is not responsible for the safety of any golfer on the course and it is, therefore, your  responsibility to remove yourself from any situation which you deem dangerous.
 
If you see lightning or hear the horn

· … proceed immediately to the clubhouse — this is the safest place on the premises.

· … do not continue to golf and do not seek shelter under trees or in power carts. These locations do not protect you from lightning.

· … solid structures with metal roofs to dissipate lightning strikes are safe places of shelter. Please note that a golf cart does NOT protect you from lightning.


Rain Check Policy
If golfers choose to end their rounds early due to rain, they will only receive a rain check if they have not yet teed off on the 6th hole. If golfers choose to leave the course due to lightning or if the ProShop attendant calls the golfers off the course by blowing the horn, all golfers will receive a rain check regardless of what hole they were playing.
