Approximately 420 members from diverse, multicultural backgrounds enjoy an 18-hole championship course redesigned by Robert Trent Jones Jr. in 2000, a year-round tennis, pickleball and fitness center featuring seven indoor courts, and American and Asian-inspired cuisine, as well as weddings, corporate events and golf outings. Ownership continues to invest in the Club, with a clubhouse refresh, replacement course bridges and a new irrigation system scheduled for 2027.


Reporting to the General Manager, the Senior Director of Operations will step into a newly created role overseeing daily operations in golf, food and beverage, banquets, racquets, recreation and member services.
