ATLANTIC CITY, NJ (June 8, 2012) – This Saturday, June 9 marks the start of a ten-week series of GolfTalk Live radio shows from the Atlantic City/South Jersey area golf courses. GolfTalk Live will kick-off the summer-long run on Friday, June 8 from Blue Heron Pines Golf Club in Egg Harbor City for a special GolfTalk Live Invitational tournament and party. The show will be recorded and air at its regular time on Saturday June 9, from 7 to 8 a.m.
Continuing throughout the summer, the award-winning show and its host, Tony Leodora, will dedicate a segment of each show to happenings at the Jersey Shore. A few of the shows will be recorded on site but most will broadcast live, on site from the impressive courses in the area.
“The constant message from all of these reports and live remote broadcasts is directed toward golfers, getting them to think golf first when they think about the Atlantic City area,” said Leodora. “When golfers think of Myrtle Beach or Ocean City, Maryland, they think of golf first. That’s what needs to happen in the Atlantic City area and the different entities seem focused on spreading that message.”
Other courses scheduled to hold live remote broadcasts include Mays Landing CC (June 16), Cape May CC (June 23), Seaview CC (June 30), Harbor Pines (GolfTalk Live party on Friday, July 6), Brigantine (July 14), Sea Oaks (GolfTalk Live party on Friday July 20), Sand Barrens (GolfTalk Live party on Friday, August 3), Twisted Dunes (August 11) and Atlantic City CC (GolfTalk Live party Friday, September 21).
Atlantic City CC will be the final stop on the tour around the Jersey Shore and will also be the site of the GolfTalk Live Invitational Championship. All of the winners from the GolfTalk Live Invitational Qualifiers throughout the summer, will stay at the Sheraton Atlantic City on Sunday, September 30 and play Atlantic City CC on Monday, October 1.
“We are excited for another year of promotion,” says Charles Fahy, Director of Operations for Atlantic City CC. “We want to get the word out about Atlantic City as a top golf destination, and I believe this is the way to do it.”
