THE GLADES GOLF AND SPA
VLTravel are proud to announce their status as the OFFICIAL TRAVEL PARTNER of the Prestigious Glades Golf and Spa.
The Glades is a par 72, 6420 metre championship course that spans 65 hectares of land, located on Australia's Gold Coast.
The course layout was designed by champion golfer and Australian sporting icon and legend Greg Norman, and is typical of his trademark aggressive layouts.
The Glades boasts superb agronomy that is unique to the area. In particular the greens consist of a new type of "Creeping bent grass" that offers a true putting surface and is the preference of professionals and amateurs alike.
This grass will ensure a superior putting surface for the entire year.
A feature on the course is the trademark Greg Norman bunkering - in total there are 98 bunkers over 18 holes
In his design, Greg not only had a vision to create a challenging golf course, but he also retained 9 hectares of wetland area to create a natural wildlife sanctuary within the course.

The 4th World Congress on Mental Health and Deafness, from 28-30 October 2009 will see 3 days dedicated to the exploration of the interdependent relationship between mental health and deafness.
The Congress will be a transformational event that will have a significant impact on the lives of deaf and hard of hearing people. It will promote awareness of the mental health issues faced by deaf and hard of hearing people in Australia and lead a collaborative movement that brings together both the deafness and mental health sectors internationally.
New research will be presented, investigating contemporary practice, delivering outcomes whilst demonstrating how deaf and hard of hearing people can be empowered, connected and achieving.
The Congress theme: ‘A Life to be Lived’, is in response to our focus on all life’s stages. The Congress will feature presentations on infants and children, adolescents, adults and the elderly. We hope to create links amongst all participants, consumers, parents and professionals who will unite for this important cause.
