What does “Twilight” mean ?

Twilight is defined as last rate of the day, when 18 holes cannot be completed before dark. Twilight will change from 4pm, to 5pm & 6pm, then adjusting back to 5pm and then 4pm again in the second half of the year as sunset times change.

Safety

ONLY Players with a valid driver’s license over the age of 18 may operate an MCG Golf Cart.
Golf carts look like toys, but present certain dangers if not used with caution. ALL riders must be seated while the cart is in motion!

PLEASE have a SAFETY CONVERSATION with your juniors about these and other healthy boundaries while on the course.
THANK YOU!

Pace of Play

A Proper pace of play is essential for ALL golfers to enjoy the game, and to plan and carry out the rest of their day’s activities. Strict adherence to the proper pace is a gift and a courtesy, that all golfers should give, and receive from each other.

A proper pace of play is defined as “Less than 2 hours for 9 holes of play.” That breaks down to just about 12 minutes to complete each hole.

Have your Juniors play a scaled down version of the course, from the Fairway, or the most forward set of tee markers offered, in order for them to play the same number of shots that an adult would take to arrive at the green.

About MCRA

The Montgomery County Revenue Authority (MCRA), created in 1957, is an instrumentality of Montgomery County and a public corporation.  Laws establishing the MCRA set up its purpose to construct, improve, equip, furnish, maintain, acquire, operate, and finance projects to be devoted wholly or partially for public use, good, or general welfare.  These laws are codified in Chapter 42 of the Montgomery County Code.  Governing the MCRA is a six-member Board of Directors, with five members appointed by the County Executive and confirmed by the County Council.  The sixth member – the Chief Administrative Officer or designee – serves in a non-voting, ex-officio capacity.

The MCRA has two primary functions, one is to operate self-supporting public facilities, and the other is to finance public facilities.  On the operations side, the MCRA manages directly the Golf Course System and operates the Montgomery County Airpark. The operated facilities generate various forms of revenue, which are used to pay for operations and to provide for improvements.  A portion of the operating revenues is used to retire any debt associated with operated facilities.

On the public financing side, the MCRA issues bonds to raise capital, which is used to acquire land or other property, or to pay construction costs.  Through a financing partnership with a broad range of agencies, the MCRA has supported important public purposes such as economic development, education, transportation, human services, and recreation.  The revenues or the rent generated by the facilities are used by the Revenue Authority to retire the debt.
