Make the most of the rest of summer while saving money and making memories when you put your GreatLIFE membership to work for you.

It’s easy to take advantage of GreatLIFE’s unlimited golf and fitness, but there are many lesser-known benefits that can pay off big.

Here’s a closer look at what your GreatLIFE membership offers the chance to do this summer:

Golf for free

It’s true: Your round of golf is free if you’re a GreatLIFE fitness-only member all day on Mondays and Tuesdays, except for holidays. Head to Central Valley, Rocky Run, Worthington or Fox Run, and enjoy beautiful courses with an easy drive out of Sioux Falls.

Save at the races

Premier outdoor summer entertainment is waiting at Huset’s Speedway in Brandon – and you’ll save if you’re a GreatLIFE member with a 20 percent discount on select events. Click here,  and use promo code GREATLIFEHS25 at checkout.

Watch the Canaries for free

Nothing says summer like a trip to the ballpark – and yours is free on Wednesdays if you’re a GreatLIFE member. Enjoy Sioux Falls Canaries home games at the upgraded Birdcage throughout the regular season.

Enjoy free child care while you work out

Summer is the perfect time to explore GreatKids child care at Woodlake and Performance Center.

Kids can enjoy a different craft each week while also staying active, and you can enjoy time to take a class, fit in a swim or even get a massage.

Here’s the full July calendar:

Save at Great Shots

When the weather is less than ideal for a traditional round of golf or you want to change it up and gamify a bit, head to Great Shots at the Sanford Sports Complex.

GreatLIFE members now receive half-price walk-in golf bay rates on Sundays and 10 percent off walk-in golf bay rates during nonpeak times throughout the week.

Bonus: You and your family also will save at nearby Blue Rock Grill with 10 percent off food and nonalcoholic drinks from open to 3 p.m. weekdays.

Cool off your canine

Dogs love some summer fun too – and yours will have plenty of it at The Resort by SDK in Harrisburg. Save $10 off a Splash Bark day pass any day of the week. Treat yourself to a summer beverage while you watch your pup splash the day away.

Enjoy discounts at the zoo

A trip to the Great Plains Zoo is a must every summer, and yours will be more affordable thanks to your GreatLIFE membership. Save 25 percent on admission every day as you visit the new lion and meerkat exhibit and cool off at the new splash pad.

Explore indoor fun at the Washington Pavilion

When you can’t handle more outdoor adventure – or the weather isn’t cooperating – the Washington Pavilion offers a perfect reprieve. Kids will love interactive water play, dinosaur- and space-themed exhibitions and hands-on crafts, while adults appreciate outstanding art and the new Sweetman Planetarium. GreatLIFE members save 50 percent off Sunday admission and 20 percent off annual memberships.

Indulge in ice cream

No summer is complete without its share of ice cream stops – and savings are waiting here too. Head to Stensland Family Farms for 10 percent off your purchase. Speaking of dining out, that’s just the start of the discounts. Every meal, every day, you can save with a GreatLIFE membership. Visit here for details: joingreatlife.com/member-benefits.

Save on vacation

Don’t book your next vacation without saving — thanks to your GreatLIFE membership. Members receive 20 percent off at almost 40 hotels operated by Regency Hotel Management.

Whether you’re headed to the Black Hills, the Twin Cities or beyond, your getaway just got more affordable. Visit here for details: joingreatlife.com/regencyhotelmanagement.
