Destination Partners Announces New Promotions, Giveaways

(GULF SHORES, ALABAMA) – The Gulf Shores Golf Association – a collection of nine fun, popular and acclaimed courses on Alabama’s Gulf Coast – announced that Glenlakes Golf Club will provide free lunch as part of its golf packages this year, an example of the value-added approach the area’s member courses offer players.

Golfers who book packages with tee times before noon from now until March 11, and before 1 p.m. after March 11, receive a complimentary lunch at Glenlakes, the links-style, 18-hole championship course featuring new Champion Bermuda turf greens. Lunch includes a ham or turkey sandwich, chips, fountain soda and cookie.

“The Glenlakes special is indicative of how Gulf Shores’ courses and accommodations offer special bonuses to ensure guests enjoy our destination and value their overall experience,” said Gulf Shores Golf Association Executive Director Duncan Millar. “Our Facebook and Twitter pages are great ways to learn what’s happening in Gulf Shores, both on and off the golf course.”
