Summer is the time for country clubs to really come alive! With all the celebrations, showers, tournaments, and fun events happening, it’s a season packed with excitement. It also gives your club a chance to create a welcoming atmosphere for members and guests alike.
With all of this extra foot traffic, you’ll want to ensure your venue is pristine. A beautifully maintained environment not only elevates the overall experience but also leaves a lasting impression that keeps people coming back for more.
Here’s how you can best prepare your country club for a successful summer season.
Deep clean before the uptick in business
Before summer even arrives, give your space a thorough deep clean. This cleaning should focus on out-of-sight areas that can accumulate grime over the winter months. Pay close attention to baseboards, crown molding, air vents, windows, and light fixtures where dust and debris can settle. But you’ll also want to give extra care to the floors and windows. Aside from the interior, your outdoor patios, balconies, and terraces can benefit from pressure washing to start the season fresh.
Refresh the restrooms
The bathrooms in the clubhouse are surely up to par, but there are a few extra touches you can make before the busy summer season. Start by giving bathrooms a deep clean and restocking the essentials. Then, consider simple but effective upgrades like swapping out winter-scented hand soaps and air fresheners. Fresh scents like citrus or linen can make a small but impactful difference. Because a pristine restroom can be just as memorable to guests as a beautiful ballroom.
Spruce up the grounds
If your country club includes a golf course, preparing the greens is essential for tournament season and daily play. Mow, edge, trim shrubs and trees, and plant fresh seasonal flowers for a pop of color around entrances and walkways. Aerate, fertilize, and reseed if necessary to ensure the course is in top shape. While performing this maintenance, pay attention to chipped paint, cracked walkways, or worn signage and address them before guests arrive.
Revamp event spaces
Country clubs are popular for weddings, bridal showers, retirement parties, and corporate events during the summer. Like the rest of the property, the ballrooms, lounges, and dining areas should be photo-ready. Inspect tablecloths, drapes, and chair covers for stains or wear and launder or replace as needed. Check chandeliers, sconces, and decorative string lights for dust and replace any dim or burnt-out bulbs. Refinish or buff dance floors so they look flawless for first dances and late-night parties. All of these small details make a huge difference when the venue is immortalized in photos!
Prep the pool
The country club pool is a centerpiece of the property. And in some cases, the pool can be an event backdrop! Ensure the pool area is tip-top by pressure washing pool decks and lounge furniture. Ensure all pool equipment is clean and operational, and stock plenty of fresh, clean towels.
