SIGNATURE GOLF GROUP SELECTED TO BE GOLF COURSE MARKETING COMPANY
FOR LOCKWOOD FOLLY COUNTRY CLUB
One Of The Carolinas’ Top Golf Course Management
And Services Companies Is Awarded Two-Year Contract
April 13, 2005, Myrtle Beach, S.C. — Lockwood
Folly Country Club in Holden Beach, N.C., has awarded
a two-year contract to develop and manage the Club’s
golf marketing program to one of the Carolinas’
top golf course management companies. Signature Golf Group,
which has offices in Surfside Beach, S.C., and Charlotte,
N. C., will handle all aspects of golf course marketing for the
Country Club, including promotional golf course programs, advertising
and “partnership marketing” with area accommodations.
The contract began April 1, 2005.
Lockwood Folly Country Club opened in 1992. With 18
holes designed by Willard Byrd, it is consistently
awarded 4 Stars by Golf Digest “Places to Play”.
The course is located at the confluence of the Intracoastal
Waterway and the Lockwood Folly River, providing golfers
with breathtaking vistas of tidal estuary, moss covered
hardwoods and the solitude of nature. Tree lined,
nonparallel fairways winding through hardwoods and
pine afford a sense of seclusion while challenging
with championship golf.
“We’re excited about the opportunity to
work with Lockwood Folly,” said Steve Taylor,
President of Signature Golf Group. “Our goal
is to provide each of our Lockwood Folly golfers with
the ‘Signature’ experience. And that means
great customer service and a memorable golf experience
that will motivate them to return year after year
to play Lockwood.”
