ORLANDO, Fla. – July 27, 2010…Marriott Golf, one of the world’s premier golf operators, is once again reaching out to families all over the world and promoting “togetherness in golf.” Toftrees Golf Club, the newest addition to the Marriott Golf portfolio, located at One Country Club Lane in State College, PA, today announced that it will be hosting its first annual Family Golf Festival on Sunday, August 1, from noon – 3 p.m.
The Marriott International Family Golf Festival, which encourages parents and children to learn and play the game together, invites families to Toftrees Golf Club for an afternoon of FREE golf instruction, clinics, fun activities, interactive golf games, family golf programs, and more. Further, after 3 p.m., families and children can play golf for free at Toftrees Golf Club as part of Marriott Golf’s Kids Golf-4-Free program.
Highlighting the event will be the chance for all attendees to win a variety of exciting prizes, including tickets to local sporting events and gift cards to local businesses & restaurants. One lucky family will go home with a complimentary Family Golf Membership to Toftrees Golf Club, which includes full golf privileges for mom, dad and all kids under the age of 21, as well as pool privileges.
The Marriott International Family Golf Festival is another effort by Marriott to promote family golf. In 2005, Marriott Golf launched “Kids Golf-4-Free,” a first-of-its-kind program that enables kids up to 15 years old to golf for free when accompanied by a full paying adult after 3 p.m. In addition, Marriott Golf also offers free lessons anytime to kids up to 15 years old when accompanied by an adult who is taking a fully paid lesson from a Marriott Golf instructor. This program, which is available at some of Marriott Golf’s most prestigious resort destinations worldwide, was complemented in 2007 by the “Kids Rent-4-Free” program, which provides kids 15 years old and under with a free rental set of Accu-Length clubs when they participate in the “Kids Golf-4-Free” program.
