Dress Code

Members, those holding privileges, guests and children of members and those with privileges should at all times dress in a manner appropriate for Shaughnessy Golf and Country Club. The Board of Directors asks that all members arrive at the club properly dressed. Members are responsible for their guests and are expected to advise them of Club Rules and traditions BEFORE they arrive on Club property. Guests are the direct responsibility of the member bringing them to the Club.

The staff have been instructed by the Board of Directors to bring rules violations to the attention of the member immediately. In the case of a guest, the staff have been instructed to address the guest as well as the member. The staff have been instructed to deny services to those persons who do not take corrective action to address the violation in question. All such violations will be reported to the General Manager. We ask you to make every effort to maintain the Club’s tradition of proper attire.
