My son, his wife, and 2 girls will come in Christmas week and weekend
We will use the facilities daily. It will be expensive to pay for 4 people each day.
Would you please consider a daily family pass or weekly pass? Thank you
Hello Mary. This idea comes up periodically. After reviewing the pros and cons, the decision in the recent past has been to retain the current guest system to ensure guests are allowed as occasional visitors and the member experience remains the priority. However, as the idea was suggested again recently, we are reviewing the program and will bring to the Board a recommendation to retain or modify the program. You can expect to hear more about any suggested changes at a future Board meeting; keep an eye on gb.suncitywest.com for Board meetings and agendas.
