ORLANDO (August 7, 2007) – Parents will be able to bond with their children during the entire month of August at Shingle Creek Golf Club when the award-winning course lets kids under 16 play free with a paying adult.
"Quality time is an important factor in any relationship between an adult and a child, and this is a great way to create that integral atmosphere. They have more than five hours of one-on-one time together on the golf course, which is hard to beat," says Dave Scott, Director of Golf at Shingle Creek Golf Club. "By having this promotion we are not only allowing kids to grow with their parents, we are also helping grow the game of golf by giving the youngsters an opportunity to have more exposure to the game. It’s a deal that’s too impossible to pass up."
Reservations can be made by calling the pro shop at Shingle Creek Golf Club at (866) 996-9933 or by booking on line at www.shinglecreekgolf.com. Rates for the month start at $79 plus tax, and includes cart and range balls before the round. Junior club rentals are available for $25.
Shingle Creek Golf Club was recently named one of the top 100 golf shops in the U.S. by Golf Business magazine. In June 2005, Shingle Creek was named a "Top 40 Best New Course" by Golfweek magazine.
Shingle Creek is also home to Brad Brewer, who runs the Brad Brewer Golf Academy. Brewer was recently named by Golf Magazine "One of the Top 100 Teachers for 2007-2008."
The David Harman designed course features undulating fairways and interconnecting waterways bordered by the natural backdrop of dense oaks and pines along historic Shingle Creek.
