NEW YORK, July 13, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- GPS Industries, Inc. (OTCBB:GPSN), a leading innovator of Wi-Fi wireless and GPS-enabled multimedia communications and management solutions for golf facilities and residential communities, today announces that White Hawk Country Club, a multiple award-winning 27-hole course golf facility and community will implement GPS Industries' (GPSI) Wi-Fi GPS golf business solutions.
White Hawk Country Club includes the White Hawk residential community, a state of the art event banquet center and 27 holes of championship golf set on 1200 acres in Northwest Indiana. The course, designed by Dick Nugent and Associates is jointly owned by Hawk Development and White Hawk Management Group. This fall White Hawk Country Club will soon be home to Northwest Indiana's only 36 hole golf course. Silver Hawk nine will measure an impressive 3,800 yards. This will bring the 18-hole total to well over 7,300 yards, when it is combined with any other of the nines. Silver Hawk's monstrous new par five alone will measure over 640 yards. This amazing combination will make White Hawk home to one of the longest courses in the state of Indiana!
Since 1998, White Hawk has received many awards including Indiana Business' award as the Best Place to hold a Corporate Outing in Indiana. Chicago District Golf Association ranks White Hawk as one of the top 5 facilities in the greater Chicago marketplace. White Hawk will install GPSI's Wi-Fi network and GPS-based full management system at both courses and will equip its cart fleet with 108 - 10.4" advanced color screen GPS display units with an additional 38 units when Silver Hawk is opened later this fall.
"We've had other GPS systems but once our staff saw the different aspects the Inforemer had to offer, we were sold on GPS Industries," comments Paul Switzer, Managing Partner for White Hawk. "The steering column mounting position of the unit is easier to read and our members love the new graphics of the Inforemer. The easy to use Inforemer Marketing program including Banner Ads will enable our staff to easily generate new revenues to offset the cost of the system. After having other GPS products for several years, we are now very excited to implement the next generation with GPS Industries' Inforemer system. It is clearly the most advanced solution on the market."
"White Hawk Country Club represents another outstanding facility that will help us continue to introduce the Inforemer and GPS Industries to the Midwest golf marketplace," comments Robert Silzer Sr., President and CEO of GPSI. "We're thrilled that White Hawk Management Group has selected GPS Industries as their Wi-Fi GPS technology provider for this installation and we certainly look forward to developing a strong relationship with them."
