In celebration of the course’s 30th birthday, Wild Dunes Resort is giving golfers a chance to play the oceanfront Links Course, designer Tom Fazio’s first-ever solo course, and help the organization give back to the community.
The resort is offering a 1980s-inspired golf package for $225 per person per night, including a round of golf on The Links Course or Harbor Course, resort accommodations, a flashback ’80s music CD and a signature 1980s-style anniversary golf hat. The offer is available for stays Sept. 7 through Dec. 29.
In addition, the first group to tee off on the Links Course each day in September will be asked to choose a group from several predetermined charities to receive a Wild Dunes golf gift certificate.
Each certificate, good for a foursome on one of the property’s two courses, can be used as the charity sees fit, whether that’s to auction it off to raise money, give it to top volunteers or give it to underprivileged people they serve.
Call 877-221-0901 for reservations.
