JOINT BASE ANDREWS, Md. — The Courses at Andrews has partnered with Appitise, Inc, a leading software developer specializing in branded business apps, to launch the first free The Courses at Andrews' golf course app for iPhone, iPad, and iTouch. The app provides live news from The Courses Facebook page and Twitter account, an interactive course map of all 54 holes and an "augmented reality" view with GPS yardages. Users will be able to receive up to the minute information about course events, promotions, or reserve tee times directly from their hand held device.

As the world of golf changes into a more technology-based golfer; we felt that by involving new age technology to our amenities at no cost to our patrons and guests, would do that much more to keep The Courses at Andrews at the front of your mind when playing golf on the only three course facility within the Department of Defense. The new app is eliminating the need for GPS systems, paper yardage guides, etc. It will also add convenience for scheduling a tee time and keep up to date with hosted events, special promotions and weather warnings, all streamed to your Apple mobile devices. You can download your app at http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/the-courses-at-andrews-afb-md/id393265590?mt=8

The Courses at Andrews is a Department of Defense non appropriated fund instrumentality that supports the military population and federal workforce in the National Capital Region with three championship golf courses, practice areas, club house with resale pro shop, food and beverage outlets, appointed locker rooms and fitness center. We invite you to share this app and make frequent use of this benchmark golf facility.
