Ocean Pines Golf Club to Reopen May 9
On May 6, Maryland Governor Larry Hogan announced he would broaden the list of outdoor activities allowed under the state’s stay-at-home order. Ocean Pines Golf Club is happy to report that golf is one of the outdoor activities now permitted.The safety of our staff and patrons is our top priority, and we will fully comply with the governor's guidelines for the operation of golf courses in Maryland during the COVID-19 outbreak.
Keeping these guidelines in mind, Ocean Pines Golf Club has instituted the following procedures for play, effective Saturday, May 9:

As the scope of this outbreak is unprecedented during our time, it is impossible to predict if further modifications will need to be made. We will continue to keep the golfing public aware of any changes via email communications, on Ocean Pines Golf Club's Facebook and Twitter pages, and at OceanPinesGolf.org.
