The Kennemer Golf & Country Club offers (temporary) expatriate membership to any person who works as an official for a multinational company operating in or from the Netherlands. The membership can be extended to his/her spouse and they should both be residing temporarily in the Netherlands, preferably in the vicinity of the Kennemer.
The regulations applicable to such membership stand alongside and in addition to the terms of the statutes and the rules and regulations of the club. These regulations include, amongst others, the folowing:
