Martin’s PGA TOUR Superstore, with locations in Myrtle Beach and North Myrtle Beach, S.C., is the presenting sponsor of “Junior Golf Night” with the Myrtle Beach Pelicans Friday, June 29, 2007.
During the 7:05 p.m. game against the Potomac Nationals, representatives from Martin’s PGA TOUR Superstore will register kids to be entered into a drawing to win one of six sets of free junior clubs that will be given away after the game and before the fireworks.
All juniors, 12 years old and under who attend the game can redeem their ticket stubs in either the North Myrtle Beach or Myrtle Beach store for a $20.00 gift card. Tickets must be redeemed by Saturday July 7, 2007.
“We’re excited about the opportunity to sponsor an event like the ‘Junior Golf Night’ with the Pelicans,” said Bobby Pearson, general manager of the Myrtle Beach location of Martin’s PGA TOUR Superstore. “Martin’s PGA TOUR Superstore knows there is nothing more important than fostering the idea of game improvement at a young age. We hope ‘Junior Golf Night’ with the Pelicans will encourage all juniors, either currently playing, or considering taking up the great game of golf.”
Martin’s PGA TOUR is also the title sponsor of the 10th Annual National Father & Son Team Classic, the largest father and son golf competition in the world being held July 19-21.
