Dress Rules
The Canberra Southern Cross Club has an enviable reputation for service, dress and behaviour standards. It is a quality Club of which members can be proud.
The spirit of members is a big reason why our Club is so popular. Our rules and regulations are there to reinforce that spirit and to benefit us all. That is why we have dress regulations, to meet our members' expectations of comfort, neatness, cleanliness and appearance.
Our dress regulations are based on commonly accepted standards of dress. Because fashions are continually changing, dress requirements are interpreted in a spirit of goodwill and common sense.
Members and their guests must be well presented, clean, neat and tidy at all times when in the Club. Singlets, thongs or clothing, that in the opinion of management is provocative or has advertising or messages which in the opinion of management is in bad taste, will not be permitted.
