HACKENSACK—Bergen County Executive Jim Tedesco III and the Board of County Commissioners announce that all Bergen County veterans and active duty servicemembers can enjoy a free round of golf at any of the county’s six golf courses on Thursday, Nov. 11 and Friday, Nov. 12.
This is an opportunity the County of Bergen offers each year as a way to express gratitude towards those who have served our nation.
“While we can never fully repay those who have faithfully served our nation in the Armed Forces, it is our duty to show them our support and appreciation here at home,” Tedesco said in a press release. “Offering a free round of golf at one of our six exceptional county courses in honor of Veterans Day is a small gesture for the immense gratitude we feel. On behalf of the people of Bergen County, thank you to all our active duty and retired service members. We will never take for granted the sacrifices you and your families have made to protect the freedoms and liberties we all hold dear.”
“We’re thrilled to be able to offer this small token of our appreciation to veterans and active duty service members. As the weather is getting colder, this may be one of the last chances of the season to play at one of the county’s six exceptional golf courses,” added Bergen County Commissioner Chairman Steve Tanelli. We value and appreciate everyone who has honorably worn a uniform in service to this country and look forward to seeing you on the links.”
To enjoy this opportunity, veterans and active duty service members must be residents of Bergen County, produce identification indicating veteran or military status, and inform cashiers of their participation in this special Veterans Day offer prior to sale. This offer is only applicable to greens fees — the golf cart fee will remain in effect.
Bergen County has six golf courses: Darlington Golf Course in Mahwah, Orchard Hills Golf Course in Paramus, Overpeck Golf Course in Teaneck, Rockleigh Golf Course in Rockleigh, Soldier Hill Golf Course in Emerson, and Valley Brook Golf Course in River Vale.
