ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (August 13, 2002) - Golf Card International, the leader in golf savings programs, is adding 12 Billy Casper Golf-managed facilities to the company's impressive nationwide roster that includes more than 3,600 courses.

"We're excited to offer our members access to 12 new championship courses managed by Billy Casper Golf and designed by renowned architects Bob Cupp, Dr. Michael Hurdzen and Raymond Floyd, just to name a few," said Bruce Hoster, President of Golf Card International. "These new courses continue to raise the profile of fabulous venues we offer our members. For instance, our members now have access to courses located in pristine state parks like Mississippi's Quail Hollow and award-winning and widely recognized courses like Delaware's Back Creek Golf Club."

"Billy Casper Golf is pleased to offer Golf Card participants the opportunity to play some of our courses through this unique program," said Peter Hill, Billy Casper Golf Chief Executive Officer. "This fits our commitment to provide experiences that golfers desire."

The 12 new Billy Casper Golf-managed courses are located in the Northeast, (Delaware, New Jersey, Pennsylvania) Middle Atlantic (Maryland, Virginia) and Southeast (Mississippi, Tennessee). As is customary with Golf Card International properties, these courses are available to cardholders with no seasonal restrictions.

The new courses include: Springwood Golf Club (York, PA), named one of Golf Magazine's "Top 10 New Courses You Can Play" 1998; Back Creek Golf Club (Middleton, DE) named twice as one of Golfweek's "Best 100 Modern Courses in the US" and recognized by Golf & Travel as one of the Top 40 Public Courses; and Chesapeake Hills, (Lusby, MD) just minutes north of historic Solomons Island. The Legacy (Springfield, TN) is a Raymond Floyd design and is widely regarded as one of the best courses in the Nashville area.

One of the largest golf management companies in the United States with a portfolio of more than 30 courses operated or owned nationwide, Billy Casper Golf has achieved this leading professional status by providing a consistent brand of golf experience that all golfers seek: quality course conditions, dedicated customer service and great value.
