THE SHELL POINT GOLF CLUB IS OFFERING SUMMER MEMBERSHIPS

FORT MYERS, Fla. (April 9, 2012)

The Shell Point Golf Club will offer a special summer membership rate to golfers interested in joining the golf club from May 15 through October 15. The cost of this membership is only $150, and interested golfers should call (239) 433-9790 to sign up.

“One of the reasons that many people come to southwest Florida, outside of the beaches, is for the golf,” said Michael Raber, Head Golf Professional for Shell Point Golf Club. “At Shell Point, we have a championship golf course with very competitive rates that is open to the public year round. We also have a full practice area with a driving range, short game area, and putting green. Here at Shell Point, we believe that every day is a great day for golf!”

The summer membership privileges include reciprocal privileges, 21 days advance tee times (online), 10% off merchandise (soft goods), league participation, charge accounts, reduced cart fees, club championship participation. Additionally, for golfers interested in a longer membership, Shell Point Golf Club is offering a pro-rated package for full memberships at a cost of $550 to become a member from May 1 through December 31. Full membership golfers receive all the same privileges as the summer membership package, as well as GHIN handicap, bag storage, and unlimited range access. The full membership also receives a 20% discount on merchandise instead of 10%, and full membership golfers are allowed to reserve tee times 30 days in advance online.

The Shell Point Golf Club is an 18-hole Championship Golf Course that opened in 2000 and was designed by Gordon Lewis. The course offers a grass driving range and practice green, lessons, a fully-stocked pro shop and snack bar, and all the course golf carts are equipped with Uplink GPS monitors. The course is open to the public, and is located at the entrance to Shell Point Retirement Community in Fort Myers, Florida, just off Summerlin Road, two miles before the Sanibel Island Causeway.
