Happy Golf Month Activities in May

As we are celebrating everything fashionable for spring, we are also thinking about the longer days of summer and more time outdoors. To kick-off this exciting season, "Welcome to Golf Month," a new Play Golf America program, is bringing free 10-minute lessons from PGA/LPGA Professionals as well as other introductory programs, orientations and Get Golf Ready clinics throughout the month of May.

You know I love sharing ways to stay fit, like pilates and running, golf can be a great way to keep moving too.

PGA of America President Allen Wronowski stated, "Welcome to Golf Month is the perfect time to get out and give golf a try by taking a free 10-minute lesson or by participating in a free golf clinic. We encourage golfers to bring their family and friends to the course to share in the experience and have a great time together."

As a partnership of The PGA of America, Golf Digest, and Nike Golf, "Welcome to Golf Month" is the perfect time for lapsed golfers to come back to the game; new golfers to try the game; and avid golfers to bring a friend or family member to the game. Consumers can find "Welcome to Golf Month" programs in their area by going to PlayGolfAmerica.com and can find a Beginner's Guide on how to get started in the game at GolfDigest.com.

Every golfer who participates in "Welcome to Golf Month" is encouraged to enter the sweepstakes for a chance to win a two-day/two-night getaway and golf school at The PGA Center for Golf Learning and Performance in Port St. Lucie, Fla., or two sets of Nike golf clubs.
