Facility Improvements
You may have noticed more changes at the Boca Raton Golf & Racquet Club. Ongoing improvements are taking place in the clubhouse and out on the course.
-
In Progress: The installation of all new hurricane proof windows and doors at the clubhouse continues. Thank you for your patience as the front entrance remains closed. Please continue to use the north and south entrances.
-
Course Refreshments: Check out the new bar cart, complete with water, sodas, beer, cocktails and snacks. GPS locator and request function for bar cart coming soon!

Future Play: Foliage along the entire south border of the course has been cut back, which will allow for shaded areas of the course greens to grow and extend play area. Look for the expanded greens over the next 6 months to a year.
