Are you tired of getting your dad socks and ties for every holiday? Gifts that pile up in the back of a closet grow tiresome. Visit one of Arlington's three municipal golf courses (Tierra Verde Golf Club, Lake Arlington Golf Course or Meadowbrook Park Golf Course) or the Arlington Tennis Center to get your father a gift he will actually use.

Tennis

The Arlington Tennis Center offers gift certificates that can be used on the huge assortment of Pro shop merchandise, court fees or any instruction or drill league. Whether your dad is looking for a new sport to pick up, or our ATC staff knows him by name, a gift card will go a long way.

To celebrate dads, the ATC is offering:

• 20 percent off all in-stock merchandise from Saturday, June 10 through Sunday, June 18.
• FREE Dad's Drill on Saturday morning, June 17. Participants must register in advance. Limit 12.
• Father's Play Free Sunday, June 18, from noon to 5 p.m.

Golf and good food

Arlington Golf also offers gift cards which you can conveniently purchase through the website atArlingtonGolf.com or at any of the three golf courses. Celebrate your dad by buying him an afternoon on the fairway! The gift cards can also be used on any Golf Shop purchase, or food and drinks while on the links. If you aren't a golf fan, meet for lunch or dinner at Ventana Grille. The restaurant is located at scenic Tierra Verde Golf Club. The new menu is highlighted by eight specialty burgers, including our favorite, The Shank - a hand-formed ½ pound angus beef patty topped with spicy Italian sausage, pepper jack cheese, jalapenos, lettuce, tomato and chipotle mayo.

For the avid golfing dad, Arlington Golf knows one day isn't enough to celebrate how awesome he is so they are giving you the chance to show him how much he means to you all year! All you have to do is text GOLFTX to 86677 to register for our SMS club, and you are entered into a drawing for free green fees at all of the Arlington Golf courses for an entire year! The drawing will take place on Oct. 1, 2017. Some restrictions apply.
