Green CArd Membership is good for one year from the date of purchase.
Can you afford not to have it? The $49 Green Card is the best buy in
Golf today. If you're cutting back on the amount you play because of
expense, a Green CArd membership is the answer.
And now we'll donate as much as you will to The Jimmy Fund Golf

the fund raising efforts of the Jimmy Fund and Dana-Farber CAncer

1548.6 | some restrictions apply | NOVA::FINNERTY | lies, damned lies, and the CAPM | Fri Apr 22 1994 15:15 | 15 |

sounds like it may be a good deal, but "some restrictions apply". The
restrictions are:
� you generally are required to rent a cart,
� you must play during the week, and
� you may play at most once (.-1) or twice (.-2) at each of the
participating clubs.
so you may not actually save much or any money if you ordinarily carry
your own bags, but at least some of the money goes to a worthy-sounding
cause.

I have found some the restrictions to not be cast in stone.
The course in Winchendon let's you come back as many times
as you want. They don't limit you to two.
If you call in advance for a weekend tee time and tell them
that you have the green card, they may find an early afternoon
slot for you, but probably not a morning tee time.
I usually golf with another green card holder and they would
allow us to rent one cart for the two of us and no greens fees.
My cost was then only half the cart rental Most places were
willing to do that.
Not all places are lax on the restrictions, but some are.
