BallenIsles Country Club Featured on Times Square Billboard

On January 31, NewsMark Public Relations issued a press release celebrating the Club’s latest Award, headlined: “BallenIsles Country Club Crowned ‘FACILITY OF THE YEAR.”  Embedded in the release was a photograph of the award presentation to BallenIsles Management and Club President by Troon Executives.

The Club was delighted that the photograph and headline were displayed in the news feed rotation on the 7,400 sq ft Reuters Sign in Times Square.  The Reuters Sign soars 23 stories into the sky above Times Square, and is the world’s largest digital display system, reaching more than 1.5 million people per day. The digital billboard features a rolling roster of photos throughout each day accompanied by news release headlines.
