I understand that it is my responsibility to request a newly updated version of such Rules for viewing. I agree to follow the Campground’s Rules governing golf cart operation, which include but are not limited to the following: the cart must be driven only by licensed drivers aged twenty-one (21) or older; the maximum occupancy is four (4) persons; the cart must remain on Campground roads at all times; the speed limit is ten (10) miles per hour; and carts must be parked at campsites before quiet hours.

In light of the global pandemic associated with COVID-19, everyone shares in the obligation to observe certain requirements and guidelines to help keep themselves and others safe within your shared community. In particular, I represent that I have not tested positive for COVID-19 within the last two weeks and I have not been in direct personal contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID-19 within the last two weeks either. If I do test positive for COVID-19 or come into contact with someone who has, or if my temperature exceeds 100 degrees Fahrenheit and I experience other COVID-19-related symptoms, I agree that I will not seek to enter the resort/community until I am no longer symptomatic for three straight days. I agree to observe the safety requirements within the resort/community spaces -- including wearing a personal mask when required, and observing required routes of circulation, occupancy limitations, social distancing and sanitization requirements.
