Canongate Golf Giving Away 1-Year Membership

Canongate Golf Launches New Initiative To Encourage Georgians To Get Outdoors And Play
Club Will Give Away a Free 1-year Membership

ATLANTA (June 11, 2012) – On average, Americans spend approximately 90 percent of their time indoors, according to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). With school out and summer break in full swing, Canongate Golf, the southeast’s leading private golf club network, today announced its “Play” initiative to encourage Georgians to spend more time on the links. 

The company’s Play platform is designed to look beyond the sport and showcase the value players can experience during a round of golf, including spending quality time with friends and family, improving health and stepping away from the office to enjoy fresh air. In an effort to make it easier for local residents to get outdoors and on the course, Canongate has introduced a number of programs that meet a variety of needs and budgets. Examples of the Play programs include Kids Play Free, Sundown Rates, Inside the Perimeter memberships, Instructional memberships, Multiple Course opportunities, Access Advantage and Social Benefits – additional information on all of these programs can be found below.   

“At Canongate, we believe that golf can truly have a positive impact on the quality of life and have seen its effects firsthand through our members,” said Joe Guerra, president and CEO of Canongate Golf. “We have challenged ourselves to create an array of programs and packages that make the sport more accessible and enjoyable for the entire family.”

Free 1-Year Membership Giveaway
To commemorate the launch of the Play program, Canongate is hosting a contest for Georgia-based residents to give away a 1-year membership to one of its 23 private golf clubs in Metro-Atlanta. To enter, interested participants must submit a video or short essay, 300 words or less, that explains why they deserve a free membership and how they feel it could improve the quality of their life. The contest will run from June 11, 2012 through July 22, 2012. For contest rules and to enter to win, visit www.canongategolf.com/play.
