EFFECTIVE March 1, 2010, Rio Bravo Country Club will implement 'charge only' policies for all members.  In short, the use of cash will no longer be honored and any and all purchases must be charged to either the members' account, a recognized credit card, or through payment by check. 

Under Article VII, Section B, Paragraph 4, Members are responsible for Guest fees and charges incurred at the Club. 

Amendment is hereby made to Article IV, Section A, 4.5 Approval of Credit, 4.7 Cash Only Basis, and any other rules allowing or mandating cash policies.  If a members' account becomes delinquent, the Club will not place the account on 'cash only;' however, the Club will suspend or terminate the member account. 

Accordingly, Members will be required to charge all Guest fees, charges, including food and beverage, tips, or any charge that was previously allowed to be paid in cash.  Charging to the member account will be the default method; however, a member can also pay by approved credit card, or to pay with a check.  The charge only policies apply to any amount from one cent to the amount of the member's credit approval, which is determined at the sole discretion of Management.

Please do not tender cash payments to any employee as they will be instructed to process your payment by way of your Club charge account.  If you want a guest to pay for their own fees, you, as a member is ultimately responsible for the fees; however, if the guest utilizes a credit card or check for payment, this will be acceptable to the Club.  The Club thanks members in advance for their adherence to the charge only policies.

Since this policy takes effect on March 1, 2010, we welcome suggestions on how best to implement it and least inconvenience you, the member.  If you wish to send a comment, email it to office@riobravocountryclub.com.

Please direct any questions to the Business Office.

Thank you.
