Rossmoor is in the process of implementing a new security system at the gate.  Residents must contact the gate with the names of guests prior to arrival.  
If two non residents want to play together in a Rossmoor game, they should send an EMAIL with their names and date of play to Addie Mattox at: AMattox@earthlink.net
In this initial testing phase, guests will have to present their driver’s license and receive paper passes that they must keep on their dashboard while visiting.

Effective immediately (1/1/23) All Rossmoor games are open to two non residents to play together (see above for the new security system).  See the complete game schedule below:
