January 1, 2009 marked an important milestone in the history of Fairways Golf.  After 18 years of serving over 300,000 customers, the company founder, Don Faggard, decided it was time to play more golf rather than to sell it.  As an "addicted" golfer and after hearing about the success of the company, I put together an investment group to buy Don's company.  Fairways has been one of the leading golf tour wholesalers for almost two decades.  It has grown into the largest golf tour operator in the Southeast and one of the largest golf packaging companies in the USA.

Don did things right. He hired people that are passionate and knowledgeable about golf and who take exceptional care of the golf traveler and the golf group's leader.  Our staff has unparalleled experience in coordinating trips to the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail, the Natural State Golf Trail of Arkansas, the Audubon Golf Trail of Louisiana, and the many beautiful golf courses of Florida.  You can always count on us for the best golf packages in these fantastic golf destinations.  However, they're ready to do more and provide our loyal customers with new destinations beyond our traditional markets.

In fact, it is our entire staff's belief that with our great foundation and tradition, we can grow the company in new and exciting ways for our loyal customers.  In the spring of 2009, we will add the golf destinations of Las Vegas, Arizona, and California, as well as, historic international golf destinations of Scotland and Ireland.  Following in Don’s footsteps we will continue to hire the best and take exceptional care of our golfers and most importantly, grow into a truly world-wide golf packaging company.  

Lastly, our goal is to Deliver Ultimate Customer Service every time that we interact with our loyal clients and friends.  If we ever fail to do so, please let me know.  Thanks for being a part of the all new Fairways Golf Vacations and look for many new developments in the months ahead.

Hit 'um straight!  Alan
