Marriott Golf, one of the world's premier golf operators, is once again reaching out to families all over the world and promoting "togetherness in golf." Located at the Orlando World Center Marriott, Hawk's Landing Golf Club will be hosting its second annual Family Golf Festival on Saturday, May 23, 2009.

The Marriott International Family Golf Festival, which encourages parents and children to learn and play the game together, invites families to Hawk's Landing Golf Club for an afternoon of FREE golf activities and instruction, including putting and a full swing clinic. Participants will have the chance to win a variety of prizes from Callaway & Accu-Length Golf, and will also be treated to complimentary hot dogs & refreshments. The fun begins at 12 p.m. with lunch and check-in and will conclude at 3:30 p.m., followed by an optional 9-holes of golf.   To pre-register for this "Family Fun" event, call the golf shop (407) 238-8660 and hit option 5.

The Marriott International Family Golf Festival is another effort by Marriott to promote family golf. In 2005, Marriott Golf launched "Kids Golf-4-Free," a first-of-its-kind program that enables kids up to 15 years old to golf for free when accompanied by a full paying adult after 3 p.m. In addition, Marriott Golf also offers free lessons anytime to kids up to 15 years old when accompanied by an adult who is taking a fully paid lesson from a Marriott Golf instructor. This program, which is available at some of Marriott Golf's most prestigious resort destinations worldwide, was complemented in 2007 by the "Kids Rent-4-Free" program, which provides kids 15 years old and under with a free rental set of Accu-Length clubs when they participate in the "Kids Golf-4-Free" program.
