Best range promotion: We held a series of Summer Range socials on Saturday nights that includes unlimited range balls, snack buffet and 21+ beverage included in the ticket price. We attracted golfers of all levels and ages from seasoned pros looking for practice in a fun atmosphere to social golfers, as well millennials, college students, date night and family night goers. We used themes and decorations such as Cinco de Mayo, Beach Party and Burketoberfest to encourage fun and dressing up. The socials have been very successful and well received.

Special programs: Burke Lake Golf Center’s and the Burke Lake Golf Academy have attended several community events, and festivals and family-friendly fairs including Fairfax County Park Authority Springfest, Fairfax County Park Authority Camp Fair, Women & Golf Reception, local Brewfests, Golf Expos and more introducing the game of golf to all ages. We have also partnered with Women on Course to create social, women-specific events monthly that have reached out a new demographic of the community and been very successful. In addition we have partnered with the Fairfax County Park Authority’s RECenters fitness program as well as the Fairfax County Libraries Summer Reading program to offer range passes in return for successful completions of fitness and reading initiatives. Our head pro also hold a class at George Mason University as well as works with Girls LPGA to host monthly free clinics for the community.
