As many of you know, I am involved with the ownership and management of Paramount CC. We are indeed very, very proud of all the work that been done by all involved towards restoring the club and course to its architectural integrity and operational excellence. Great people have been, and are, doing great things up there!
To that extent, we are finally seeing a very healthy pace of new members. That's encouraging and reaffirms our belief that as the course and facilities get better, and terrific people are running the place......membership expansion will follow.
We launched a National Membership category and while our original offer contained a limit on golf rounds, we've since determined that flexibility is "Paramount," and as such, if anyone you know is interested, have them directly PM me or Steve Scott. We'll be happy to discuss terms that are uniquely suited to an individual's needs. We do this not because we have to, but instead out of pride and competitive value that the club offers.
As for people who join clubs under the auspice of a National Membership category (and then proceed to make it their primary golfing venue), I'd ask what they really believe they are accomplishing? Are they successfully gaming the system? Sure, but they are also effectively abusing the trust of their fellow members....not a practice I'd want to support at my private club.
And you wonder why clubs put such limitations on differentiated, narrower memberships??
