On October 17, 2023, John Vest, GM at The Club at Castlewood issued a Golf Policy Update email to membership regarding a change in club procedure tentatively scheduled to go into effect on November 11, 2023.

Following the recommendation of the Golf Committee and approved by the Board of Directors, the revision intends to allow “access to one of the golf courses prior to 10 a.m. on the weekends” to all spouses and significant others.

This petition asserts that (1) the proper vetting for this unilateral decision was not conducted with respect to the majority of the Primary Proprietary/Regular Voting Membership, (2) it potentially diminishes value to respective Primary Proprietary/Regular Members and (3) it should be decided by the will of the majority through an Official Club vote.

We therefore request that The Club at Castlewood Board of Directors hold a Special Meeting with the Primary Proprietary/Regular Membership, per Section 10.2 of the Club at Castlewood Bylaws (version 12/8/22) and not proceed with this supposed Golf Policy revision until such requested Special Meeting has been completed and issues resolved.
