MEMBERSHIP QUALIFICATIONS
Membership is available to any person aged 19 or older, who resides within the boundaries of Dallas or Collin County, Texas, and considers such residence their homestead. Memberships are based on household size described as: an individual, couple, and family living in the same home. Not included in family memberships are: siblings, cousins, or nieces & nephews of a family member, nor visiting relatives or a divorced spouse. GHCC reserves the exclusive right to deny membership to anyone for any other reason and any time.
MEMBERSHIP RESPONSIBILITIES
Membership is a privilege and with privilege comes responsibility. With the exception of our lifeguards, pool guy & lawn guy, the club operates on a cooperative basis, depending on the members to maintain and improve the facilities, manage the day-to-day operations of the club, and staff events. Members’ time and efforts help keep our costs low and make our club a clean, safe and comfortable place to be. When members don’t pitch in, we must outsource this work (or it just doesn’t get done at all). This year we are organizing work days for club projects and staffing the front gate and the concession stand with adult members. We think taking a break from the Sun and spending as little as 1 hour greeting fellow members and their guests can be fun for everyone and help to build relationships within our club and create even more pride in what we can accomplish — together!
SWIM SEASON
The Swim Season starts the Saturday of Memorial Day weekend and runs through the Monday of Labor Day weekend and unlike Richardson’s public pools and country clubs, GHCC affords you the opportunity to bring your own food and drinks, including adult beverages. There are gas BBQ grills available for the summer tradition of cooking out. You just won’t find a more affordable or fun option in the area. GHCC traditionally offers three annual pool parties on the weekends of Memorial Day, Independence Day & Labor Day. These family-friendly gems are not to be missed!
