Members have been requesting for several years to have the privilege and convenience of a club-wide member charge system. Instead of providid ding payment with each purchase, Members can opt to add the purchase to their account and pay their bill at the end of each month. Northstar Technologies, ologies, who handles all of the Club’s point-of-sale, membership, accounting and soon th the members’ b ’ website, will track members’ charges. Members will be able to dine, purchase apparel, pay for lessons, sign up for a special functions and choose to have the payment charged to their account. They will then be billed at the end of the month for payment. Members may also continue to pay at the amenities via credit card or LNC stored value cards. The only form of payment not accepted going forward is cash. This change will eliminate the costs associated with cash handling at all of the amenities. Along with the membership charge privilege, our new website is scheduled to go live early in 2017. Members will be able to log onto the website and review their bill on a daily basis. The privilege of membership charge is traditionally featured at Platinum Country Clubs, and we are excited to bring it to the Lake Naomi Club Membership. Please note that the Membership Dues Payment will remain the same and will not be available through the Member Charge option. The Club will continue to communicate about this great enhancement in all of the winter publications. Please call the Administrative Office for more details.
Community Center Renovation Update The Horizon Plan Phase Two, the renovation of the Community Center, is on budget but unfortunately a little behind schedule. The permitting process put us about six weeks behind. Bracy Construction has been working hard to make up for the delay, but at this time we are still about two weeks behind. This would normally not be a big issue, but it puts our opening after the Holiday Break when we had hoped to have the new pool and fitness center available for our members. Bracy has not thrown in the towel yet and is still trying to get it back on schedule. After the Community Center shutdown we will start to have spaces such as the fitness center completed, but still roped off due to the lack of an Occupancy Permit. As soon as the permit is acquired, we will get the new renovations open and communicate that to the membership. You can continue to check on the Lake Naomi Club Facebook page for periodic updates of this Phase.
