BRAINERD April 13, 2005 - In Cragun's continuing efforts to recognize
the sacrifices of our nation's military veterans, and to show their
thanks, the Legacy Golf Courses at Cragun's Resort on Gull Lake in
Brainerd, Minnesota announced today that it will be hosting their 3rd
annual Veteran's Appreciation Golf Event on Memorial Day weekend, May 30
- 31, 2005. The Legacy will be offering complimentary
greens fees to veterans at all three golf courses for the weekend with
only a $10 per person charge for a GPS-equipped golf cart. Guests
playing with veterans will receive the discounted resort guest golf rate. For
veterans who enjoy fishing, Cragun's full-service marina on Gull Lake
will also be providing complimentary fishing boats with motors on a
first-come, reservation only, basis from Sunday, May 29th, 2005 -
Tuesday, May 31st, 2005.
Any U.S. military veteran can also take advantage of Cragun's
Veterans Appreciation Package through Veterans' Day, November 11, 2005.
This offer entitles all veterans to a 15% lodging discount off Cragun's
"rack rate" for any Sunday-Thursday night stay. To receive this
discount, veterans must call and ask for the room block especially
reserved for veterans.
"We're proud to be able to show our support for our military
services." Said resort owner Dutch Cragun. "As a veteran of the Korean
War myself, I know how important it is to be thanked for serving our
country. Now that we are at war again, the sacrifices of military
families should not go unnoticed. That's what our annual Veterans
Appreciation Programs are all about".
Last year, Cragun's was pleased to host over 300 golfing and fishing
veterans who enjoyed the camaraderie and meeting others who have given
years of their lives in service to America.
Veterans that want to accept this invitation are encouraged to make
their reservations by calling 1-800-CRAGUNS (1-800-272-4867). Be sure to
ask for the Veterans Appreciation Package and be prepared to supply your
name, rank and serial number. |
