ERC has partnered with “Cleveland’s fastest growing Private Golf Club,” the StoneWater Golf Club, located in Highland Heights. ERC is now a Corporate Golf Member at the Club and will be able to offer all ERC Members savings on golf outing packages, introductory golf lessons, the StoneWater “Golf for Business” etiquette program with PGA Master Professional Bob Bourne, and clubhouse dining in the StoneWater Grill.
In the Fall of 2013, the StoneWater Golf Club announced a plan to take the Golf Course completely private. The Club published a membership model that would make the golf course only accessible by Members, guests of Members, and limited golf outings. The StoneWater Grill remains open to the public and available for dining and event rental.
“We were very excited when we heard ERC was going to be our neighbor and now we are even more excited that they are a Corporate Golf Member at StoneWater. It is always nice to work with an organization that can see the value of a true partnership like Pat and his team at ERC do,” says award winning golf instructor Jimmy Hanlin, director of golf for Hanlin Golf Properties.
The unique partnership with ERC and StoneWater will allow ERC Members to utilize the Club for events both on the golf course and in the Clubhouse for a special partner rate. Golf outings will be available on Mondays and Tuesdays and the Clubhouse is available for events all year long. ERC members will mention their affiliation to ERC when working with Tara Pappas, the Director of Events for StoneWater.
- Corporate Etiquette Training: At a 20% discount, ERC members will learn tips on how to greet a client with a gift, how to entertain clients while playing golf, and when the appropriate time is to start talking business. This is valuable training for an organization to invest in so that a sales team is properly schooled on the way to interact on the golf course in a professional manner.
- Golf Lessons: At a 25% discount, members can receive a golf lesson, including a full digital video analysis, and a player development program to use in the future. Golf can be an intimidating game sometimes but with the proper training, anyone can learn how to play. The team at StoneWater is willing to offer a discounted introductory lesson to anyone employed by an ERC organization. StoneWater’s Director of Instruction, Bob Bourne, is a nationally recognized golf instructor and has even been recognized as top 100 in the Country!
- Diners’ Club: A 10% discount on food (menu items) in the StoneWater Grill. The StoneWater Grill is an open to the public dining facility in the StoneWater Clubhouse.
“We are very excited about this exclusive opportunity for our members. This will not be your traditional golf outing experience; our members will receive red carpet treatment from the StoneWater team. It’s a great partnership because our members can indulge in these excellent discounts, whether it is for client entertainment, golf outings or special events,” says Pat Perry, ERC President.
