Somerset County Park Commission Offers a New Deal for Presidents’ Day
Golfers Can Purchase Gift Cards with a Special Bonus Value for Play or Equipment

SOMERSET COUNTY, NJ – In honor of Presidents’ Day, the Somerset County Park Commission is offering golf gift cards with a special 20 percent bonus for purchase at local golf courses beginning Feb. 13.

“Even with state COVID-19 restrictions on our courses last year, Somerset County’s golfers played 20 percent more rounds as they sought safe, fun outdoor exercise opportunities with friends,” said Somerset County Park Commission Director Geoffrey Soriano. “To help everyone get out on a course as the weather turns away from winter to spring, we’re pleased to offer these gift cards over Presidents’ Day weekend.”

The 20 percent special bonus means recipients of a $100 gift card can use it to buy $120 worth of tee-times, lessons, or equipment. Gift cards are available for sale from Feb. 13 to the close of business on Feb. 15. Gift cards can be purchased at the Learning Center at Neshanic Valley, Neshanic Valley Golf Course, Quail Brook Golf Course, and Spooky Brook Golf Course.

“Residents should take advantage of this opportunity to save some money on tee-times and equipment and come out to enjoy some of the Somerset County Park Commission’s great golf courses once the weather improves,” said Somerset County Commissioner Melonie Marano. “Golfing is a healthy way to relax, and the gift cards would even make a great Valentine’s Day gift for this weekend.”

Residents can purchase a gift card by phone, and it will be mailed to them by the pro-shop. To buy a gift card call 908-369-8200. For locations and directions to the Somerset County Park Commission’s golf courses, visit www.somersetcountygolf.us/.
