PA Lifts Restrictions Allowing Golf Courses to Open May 1st<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Golfers will once again be able to play more than a half-dozen courses throughout the Pocono Mountains after a delayed opening of the season. Governor Tom Wolf has lifted the restrictions on golf courses throughout the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and now clubs are prepared to welcome golfers starting May 1st<\/sup>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While this signals the beginning of a return to normal for those who enjoy the sport of golf, it does come with numerous important precautions which area golf clubs are implementing for the start of play this season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some of these precautions include restricting one person to a cart, prepayment of greens fees and food is only available for takeout. Golfers can find more information by calling ahead or visiting the club\u2019s website before arrival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the weather continues to improve, the Pocono Mountains Visitors Bureau wants to remind avid golfers that the 2020 Pocono Mountains Golf-a-Round Card<\/a> provides a bargain for players and is available online at PoconoMountains.com<\/a> and at participating golf courses. Play twice at each of the seven courses for just $25 per round with cart. The card is valid Sunday through Friday after 2 p.m. excluding holidays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe upcoming season just would not be the same without seeing golfers of all ages enjoying the outdoors while maintaining proper social distance guidelines,\u201d said Chris Barrett, President\/CEO of the Pocono Mountains Visitors Bureau. \u201cThis is just one aspect of our region that will help return us to a sense of normalcy over time and help with our individual well-being.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
