August Golf Specials and Patriot Golf Day

   

  Quite a few golf courses are running specials right now and this is a great time to play golf before Labor Day. Black Heath Golf Course located in Oakland Township on Rochester Road has a special on Monday- Thursday with a coupon for just $25 for 18 holes and a cart. You will need a coupon. If you want an even better deal, click the link below and on the Blackheath site you will find plenty of information on the course and specials under daily specials. I have seen specials under $20 for 18 and a cart in the prime of golf season at this course. You need to call ahead as this course gets a ton of play as it should as it is a super Scotish inspired links course.

Labor Day is quickly coming up and the USGA is starting Patriot Day where golfers can contribute a $1 toward the families of the families of our fallen and disabled soldiers. Of course you can contribute more money during the period of September 2nd through the fifth.

Here is a description from the USA Website.

Folds of Honor salutes the sacrifice of fallen and disabled service members by ensuring their families are not left behind. We seek to brighten their futures and help them achieve their dreams. Through scholarships and other assistance, we provide healing and hope to these families and seek to rally the nation to support of those who have served and sacrificed for our country. Testimonials from just a few of the family members are here. >>>>>   http://www.foldsofhonor.org/testimonials
