Shingle Creek Golf Club in Orlando will show its respect for the men and women who have helped serve the U.S. by giving free greens fees on Memorial Day, May 29, to U.S. military personnel.
The offering encompasses all personnel who have a military ID card, including those who are active or retired, as well as members of the National Guard. The only fee not included in the offer is for golf carts, which are $25 per cart.
"This is just a small way for us to say 'thank you' to the people who work so hard in serving our country," says Dave Scott, director of golf at Shingle Creek Golf Club. "We know it's a small gesture, but it's our way on Memorial Day of showing the appreciation we have for those who do so much or have done so much protecting our freedom. We’re especially grateful to those U.S. military involved with the war in Iraq."
Rosen’s Shingle Creek Golf Course, a 7,228-yard, par-72 layout that opened in 2003, has been named one of the “Top 40 New Courses” by Golfweek magazine. The course is located at 9939 Universal Blvd., just off exit 2 of the Bee Line Expressway (S.R. 528). The David Harman-designed course features undulating fairways and interconnecting waterways bordered by a backdrop of oaks and pines along the historic Shingle Creek.
The club also features a practice facility, the Brad Brewer Golf Academy, a large full-service clubhouse, golf carts with UpLink GPS yardage system, complimentary valet parking, golf shop, and club and shoe rentals. On September 9, in time for its third anniversary, the adjoining Rosen Shingle Creek Hotel is scheduled to open. The 1,500-room luxury hotel will include 445,000 square feet of ballroom and meeting facilities.
