JUPITER, Fla. -- National Golf Foundation welcomes Village Links of Glen Ellyn as a renewing client of NGF's Voice-of-Customer Operating Model (VOCOM). Village Links, a 27-hole facility, is owned and operated by the Village of Glen Ellyn Recreation Department and has hosted more than 35 USGA and PGA Tour qualifying tournaments. The 18-hole course was renovated in 2004 by Garrett Gill, son of the original architect, David Gill.

NGF provides clients with an operational model that provides the voice-of-customer intelligence to make the right strategic decisions and improve their market position. More than 700 course operators have used NGF's Voice-of-Customer Operating Model to build golfer loyalty, increase revenues, grow market share and improve marketing efficiency.
