ALTAMONTE SPRINGS, FL (April 8, 2009)-Susan Young of Middletown, Rhode Island, is the grand prize winner of a six night trip for two to The St. Andrews Golf Week, sponsored by Golfpac International and Links Golf St. Andrews. Susan and her husband, Bob, will play on five of Scotland’s finest courses while staying at the famous Old Course Hotel April 19-25, 2009.
“We couldn’t believe our luck when we got the news. It truly is a golfer’s dream of a lifetime,” said Susan.
The grand prize package includes a six night stay for two at the famous Old Course Hotel, five rounds of golf on the area’s finest courses (St. Andrews Old Course; St. Andrews New Course; St. Andrews Jubilee Course; St. Andrews Eden Course and The Duke’s Course), full Scottish breakfast each day, six dinners including the Gala dinner on the final evening with presentation of prizes, and courtesy transfers from hotels to golf courses.
Susan, who began playing golf about five years ago, began booking golf trips with Golfpac Travel four years ago while planning a trip for Bob’s birthday.
“Golfpac’s web site hit all of my criteria,” said Susan. “It gave me hotel choices from inexpensive to fabulous, and more golf course choices than I ever knew existed in the Orlando area.”
After making a few choices online, Susan sent off the information for her quote. The next day a Golfpac Travel Expert called Susan to answer questions and give recommendations.
“Golfpac even recommended a change in courses so that we played a course closer to the airport the last day to make the logistics easier for us,” said Susan.
The couple had such a wonderful time and travel back to Orlando twice a year.
“Each trip, Golfpac Travel helps us find a new course that we would have never found on our own,” said Susan, “With the recommendations from the staff, every trip has been great.”
Susan and Bob are on the Golfpac Travel weekly email list; therefore, the couple receives emails featuring golf travel specials and monthly contests.
“When Bob saw the contest for the St Andrews trip he entered our name,” said Susan. “He hadn’t previously entered the (Golfpac Travel) monthly contests, because, well, we never win anything, but it was St Andrews! You can’t pass up a chance.”
