I receive some very odd pieces of mail in my Inbox, but this is one I could not ignore. Recently I got a mail from a member of the American Lung Association, and wanted it to pass it along to my dedicated readers:
My name is Michele Weeks and I am a volunteer for the American Lung Association in Richmond, VA. I came across your blog and wanted to reach out as I thought this was something your readers would be interested in. Every year we sell Golf Privilege Memberships to benefit our organization. This year we have partnered with Golf Digest Tee Times to offer a new and improved golf program. The new Golf Privilege Membership is still the same great price of $39.95 (that’s $20 off the non-ALA price) but now includes over 3300 courses and an array of online specials! I know there are a lot of discount golf memberships out there but I think a lot of folks would be interested in our membership since it offers a way of giving back to a great organization. These also make terrific gifts for the upcoming holidays. You can purchase the Golf Privilege Membership by visiting www.alagolfmembership.org. We would greatly appreciate it if you could inform your readers of this awesome opportunity. If you have any questions you can call 804-267-1900.
