What chagrin valley country club does

Chagrin Valley Country Club is a private, operating country club founded in 1921 in Moreland Hills, Ohio. It serves individuals and families through custom memberships built around an 18-hole Stanley Thompson championship course and a broad amenity set that includes racquet sports, aquatics, fitness, dining, youth programs, and hosted events. The club operates on more than 300 acres and its course is one of only 26 Stanley Thompson-designed courses in the United States.

Recurring annual membership dues are the principal disclosed revenue stream, with food and beverage and paid event hosting providing additional monetization. Membership acquisition relies on direct inquiries, facility tours, member referrals, and social or golf events, while the club sells event services to both members and non-members.

Golf instruction uses video swing analysis and launch-monitor data for performance improvement. The disclosed technology is therefore limited to instructional and physical facility components rather than a named proprietary software platform.
