About Membership at Pine Grove Country Club

As the saying goes, "Membership has its privileges", and Pine Grove Country Club is no exception. Pine Grove's proximity to residential and commercial areas and its personalized services allow members and guests to get out on the course quickly and efficiently. Whether it be refreshments following a round of golf, a business or social luncheon, and evening of fine dining, or a major social event, the clubhouse provides a warm and inviting atmosphere.

Pine Grove Country Club is a semiprivate golf club. An elected board of directors governs the club. Directors serve three-year terms. Club operations are carried out by the food and beverage manager, the course superintendent, the golf professional, and the office manager.

In addition to a full range of golf services, food and beverage services are provided daily in the clubhouse and the outdoor concession stand during the golf season. Lunch, pub nights, and Friday dining are available Wednesday through Friday during the off season. Banquet services are available to members, and non-members who are sponsored by members, year around.
