Legacy Lounge Parent Guide 2025 by Forsyth Country Club

Legacy Lounge Parent Guide

Welcome

Welcome to the Legacy Lounge! We are delighted to provide a safe, fun, and engaging space for our youngest members to play, create, and form lasting friendships while parents enjoy their time at the Club. Our goal is to ensure that children feel comfortable, cared for, and excited to return each time they visit. This guide has been designed to help you better understand our policies, programs, and expectations so that every experience is enjoyable for both you and your child.

The Legacy Lounge offers a variety of activities that cater to different ages and interests, from creative crafts and games to imaginative play and quiet reading. Our team works hard to create a warm and welcoming environment where children can explore, learn, and socialize. By providing a balance of structured and free play, we encourage creativity, teamwork, and confidence building.

Safety is always our top priority. The Legacy Lounge is staffed by trained Family Activities Leaders who are committed to providing attentive supervision and care. To help us maintain a secure environment, we ask parents to review and follow the guidelines outlined in this guide. Together, we can ensure that the Legacy Lounge remains a safe and happy space for everyone.

We view the Legacy Lounge as an extension of the family-friendly spirit of our Club. Whether you are dropping off your child for a short visit or during a special event, our goal is to provide peace of mind for parents and a memorable experience for children. We look forward to partnering with you to create joyful experiences for your family each time you visit.

Sincerely,

Meredith Koeval Family Activities Director

2. Redirection – The child will be asked to participate in another activity.

3. Time with an activity leader – The child will participate in a one-on-one activity with one of the activity leaders.

4. Family Activities Director notification - The FA Director will be contacted and will provide alternative approaches to redirect misbehaviors.
