Best range promotion: We offer special range ball discount cards in limited quantities on the main holidays and for special events, i.e. Parking Lot Sales. These cards range from $247.50 to $750.00 and offer discounts of 25% to 50% off range balls. The cards typically sell out in a few hours or release with a couple of days promotion. The total dollar amount of the cards is typically between 3K and 4K. These special cards account for about 30K of our 120K in annual range card sales. We also use the local Safeway, the only grocery store in the area that sells alcohol, and have a bucket coupon on the back of their receipt. We see close to 200 a month coming in.
Special programs: SMGA’s flagship location, Olney Golf Park is home to the first series of SMGA Golf Clinics ever offered.
Today, SMGA Maryland offers both a spring and a fall Clinic Series directed by Jim Estes, PGA. The Clinics are held on Saturdays and run for 8 weeks. We embrace a family friend’s environment. SMGA-Maryland encourages spouses or loved ones to accompany the wounded warrior and participate alongside them. We also provide complimentary childcare each week. Olney Golf Park extends free use of the facility at all times or all participants. http://smga.org/maryland-dc/
