Greetings from Bear Lake!

Winter ’09 has been cold and icy here in the mountains of Western North Carolina! As much as we enjoy the cooler temperatures, we cannot help but turn our thoughts toward the summer season. We have given serious consideration to the comments and concerns that a few members have expressed regarding Temporary Memberships. After consulting with our team, as well as with NC Alcoholic Beverage Control Commission staff, we have decided to make some changes to the Temporary Membership policy, effective February 10, 2009.

The following amendments have been made to the Temporary Membership Policy:
· Temporary Membership Agreements must be processed at least 72 hours prior to intended use. No exceptions will be made.
· Daily Temporary Membership fees will only be paid for days that a guest utilizes the property’s facilities: The Lake Club, BLR Golf Club, Mill Pond, etc.
· The Temporary Membership rate will now equal 1/30th of the monthly dues assessment ($13/day).
· The fee will be paid at the Lake Club, rather than the Greeter’s Cottage.

As always, if a guest is accompanied by a member, no temporary card is required. However, if there is a circumstance when a guest should choose to use the facilities unaccompanied by a member, a daily payment is required.
