The priority membership is so you have access to ALL country club pools instead of just your own neighborhood country club pool. For example, if you lived in Mallory Hill or Amelia, etc., you would have access to Mallory Hill country club pool at no extra expense. But if you are not priority, you could not use Cane Garden, Havana, Glenview, etc. country club pools. To my knowledge, that has never changed.

Sorry. I mistyped -- I meant Lopez and OBH not Hacienda Hills. Spend most of my time on the south side now and pulled the "wrong name from the back of my brain." Everyone has free access to AT LEAST one country club pool -- the one for your neighborhood. There are different levels of priority memberships for other country club pools and championship golf courses.

I think you are confusing Country Club pool with neighborhood pool? Obviously you, as a resident, can use any neighborhood, rec center or sports pool that you wish.

The pools at the golf courses are for priority members and/or those that purchased pool add-ons. See the earlier links for more info. Without these you can't use the country club pools regardless of which neighborhood they are in. At least that is my interpretation.

Then at the end of last year, they went to the pool and were told that Havana could no longer offer this service.
Developer said it wasn't allowed.

It's really a shame, I was thinking of purching the priority membership, getting away for a day in the neighborhood sounded like a good idea.

Don't think my friends are renewing.
:sad:
