PARSIPPANY, N.J. (March 26, 2024) – Baseball is back, and nothing says fun like catching a hometown game with friends and family. For the second year in a row, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts and its award-winning loyalty program, Wyndham Rewards, are taking up the titles of Official Hotel Partner and Hotel Loyalty Partner of Minor League Baseball (MiLB)—unlocking for fans some of its richest ticket packages and experiences yet.
With an average of nearly 20 by Wyndham branded hotels located within ~25 miles of every Minor League Baseball stadium, no other loyalty program puts fans closer to the MiLB action while allowing them to use their points to see their favorite Minor League teams. Tickets for two can be had for a mere 2,500 Wyndham Rewards points, while once-in-a-lifetime experiences, like throwing out the first pitch, are available for just 5,500 points. Wyndham Rewards members earn a guaranteed 1,000 points with every qualified hotel stay or 10 points per dollar spent, whichever is more, making the tickets and experiences among the program’s most attainable rewards.
“Travel is all about new experiences and creating lifelong memories. Through our relationship with Minor League Baseball, we’re giving members a chance to enjoy America’s favorite pastime as only Wyndham can. Best of all, whether you stay with us a few nights a year or a few hundred, it’s easy to share in the fun with family and friends.”
“Baseball goes hand-in-hand with travel. Players are constantly on-the-go for their next game and fans hit the road to catch their favorite matchups. Wyndham’s vast footprint of family-friendly hotels and engaged membership is exactly why they are a great partner. Together, we’re able to share the experience of Minor League Baseball with fans around the country.”
– Uzma Rawn, Senior Vice President of Global Corporate Partnerships, MLB
A Winning Deal in Baseball Throughout the 2024-2025 season, Wyndham Rewards members can use their points to unlock an array of family-friendly experiences while also having the chance to score points during select games.
Highlights include:

Partners with the City of Greensboro and First Tee - Central Carolina; Invites Interested Creatives to Submit Qualifications by March 29
PARSIPPANY, N.J. (Feb. 29, 2024) – Plans for a new Greensboro public arts project honoring civil rights pioneers, The Greensboro Six, took a major step forward today with the formal launch of a nationwide search for the mural’s artist.
Slated for installation at historic Gillespie Golf Course, the outdoor project is being commissioned by Wyndham Rewards®—proud title sponsor of the PGA TOUR’s Wyndham Championship—and overseen by the City of Greensboro in partnership with First Tee – Central Carolina.
“The Greensboro Six didn’t just change the history of Gillespie Golf Course – they helped change the game of golf. With this mural, it’s our hope that we can honor their historic contributions while celebrating the vital role Gillespie continues to play in our community through the work of First Tee.”
– Ryan Wilson, CEO, First Tee – Central Carolina
A Civil Rights Landmark In 1955, one week after Rosa Parks was arrested for refusing to give up her seat on a Montgomery bus, six Black men led by Dr. George Simkins started a local movement of their own by defiantly playing a round at the whites-only Gillespie Golf Course. They were later arrested, convicted of trespassing and spent 15 days in jail.
While it took seven years and numerous court cases before Gillespie would desegregate and re-open to all, the Greensboro Six’s actions helped contribute to the Civil Rights Movement, eventually seeing The Greater Greensboro Open (now the Wyndham Championship) become the first PGA Tour event in the South to welcome a Black player (Charlie Sifford), and shortly thereafter, the full desegregation of professional golf.
Today, Gillespie is home to First Tee – Central Carolina, a national youth development program using the game of golf to create life-changing opportunities for local youth on and off the course. It also has the distinction of being the first course in North Carolina to offer PGA HOPE (Helping Our Patriots Everywhere), a national program leveraging golf to enhance the wellbeing of active-duty military and veterans and is one of the only courses in the Triad catering to players with spinal injuries and disabilities through adaptive equipment and free programs.
Honoring the Past, Looking to the Future Artist commission for the project is $30,000 inclusive of all related design service, artist time and insurance needs, with additional dollars budgeted for elements including but not limited to, community engagement, materials, equipment required for installation and maintenance.
To be eligible, artists must have within the last three years completed at least one large-scale outdoor mural with a budget of at least $20,000. Applications must be submitted online and include, among other criteria, contact details, a 500-word statement of interest, relevant work samples, and references. A detailed list of criteria, along with access to the application form, can be found here. All submissions must be received no later than 5:00 p.m. ET on March 29, 2024.
Following the collection of eligible submissions, three finalists will be selected to move forward in the process with one finalist ultimately being awarded the project in May. All selections will be made by a special committee, consisting of key community figures and organizations. They include:
Chris Simkins – Son of Greensboro Six Member Dr. George Simkins
Will Lowery – North Carolina Native and Golf Media Personality
Olajuwon Ajanaku – Co-Founder of Eastside Golf
Jocquelyn Boone – Chief Creative Economy Officer, City of Greensboro
ChesKesha Cunningham-Dockery – Greensboro Parks & Recreation Commission Chairwoman
Harold Martin – Wyndham Championship Honorary Chair
Davida Martin – Wyndham Championship Honorary Chair
Kimberly Marshall – Chief Human Resource Officer, Travel + Leisure
Emily Furderer – Senior Manager, Community and Inclusion, PGA TOUR
Mark Lathan – Director of Programs, First Tee – Central Carolina
Terrington Myles – Director of Programs, First Tee – Central Carolina
“Wyndham Rewards recognizes that Gillespie is a local landmark and a spot treasured by the Greensboro community. For that reason, it’s incredibly important that the direction for this project is driven by the local community for the local community—starting with the selection of the mural’s artist. Our hope is that this project finally gives the Greensboro Six the attention they deserve.”
– Lisa Checchio, Chief Marketing Officer, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts
The Gillespie wall mural honoring the Greensboro Six is slated to be unveiled this August ahead of the 85th annual Wyndham Championship and is a part of larger efforts surrounding Wyndham Championship Fore! Good, the tournament’s signature philanthropic platform.

Number one hotel rewards program teams with The Bachelorette’s Jason Tartick,
launching golf’s newest must-have amenity at select resorts coast-to-coast
PARSIPPANY, N.J. (JUNE 21, 2023) – Anyone for a round of golf? With flexible work arrangements on the rise, people are redefining where, when and how they do their best work. Free from eight-hour days in the office, schedules now bend and flex, creating new opportunities to balance work with play. Enter the Wyndham Rewards® Cubicle Caddie, a first-of-its kind tricked out golf cart helping avid golfers worry less about being away from their desk this summer and more about missing par.
Caddies are known for being the ultimate wingmen in the game of golf, helping players unlock their full potential while always having their back in tricky and unexpected situations. The Wyndham Rewards Cubicle Caddie does the same, providing golfers with the tools they need to knock out that unavoidable Zoom call before effortlessly returning their focus to the game. With a retractable green screen, detachable desk, 5G Wi-Fi hotspot, noise cancelling headphones, wrinkle-free blazer and more—there’s no better office-on-the-go. The Cubicle Caddie even comes with a built-in escape button —think a barking dog, crying baby or an interrupting co-worker— that golfers can trigger with just one press, letting colleagues know it’s time to wrap the call.
The Wyndham Rewards Cubicle Caddie comes at a time when weekday afternoon golf is on the rise—a recent Stanford study showed a 278% increase in Wednesday afternoon play last year vs. 2019—and is endorsed by avid golfer and entrepreneur Jason Tartick. Best known for his popular business podcast, ‘Trading Secrets’ and bringing his Buffalo charm to the Bachelor franchise, Tartick offers pointers for mixing work and play successfully.
“Don’t think of it as blowing off work—think of it as blowing off steam so you can focus on the day’s to-do list feeling refreshed and recharged,” said Tartick. “As a veteran corporate banker and entertainment personality, I know balancing business and pleasure has always been par for the course. That’s the beauty of The Wyndham Rewards Cubicle Caddie. Whether you’re waiting to tee off or just coming through the turn, it makes the switch from play to work and back again easier than ever before. It’s a hole-in-one.”
“We know our members are spending less time in the office and more time working from unconventional places and so, the Cubicle Caddie was born,” said Dana Rosenberg, SVP Marketing, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts. “Golf is a much-needed escape for so many and now, thanks to the Cubicle Caddie, our members can take advantage of that escape without worrying about what to do should the office come calling. Best of all, at no extra cost to use, it’s just one more way Wyndham is rewarding members this summer.”
The Wyndham Rewards Cubicle Caddie is available at select golf courses this summer, just ahead of the 2023 Wyndham Championship. Participating hotels and resorts—all of which are part of Wyndham’s newly launched Golf Collection—are:
Cheyenne Mountain Resort, A Dolce by Wyndham (Colorado Springs, CO)
Grandover Resort & Spa, a Wyndham Grand Hotel (Greensboro, NC)
Club Wyndham Orange Tree Resort (Scottsdale, AZ)
Club Wyndham Palm-Aire (Pompano Beach, FL)
Wyndham Grand Rio Mar Puerto Rico Golf & Beach Resort (Rio Grande, PR)
Wyndham Hotels & Resorts’ Golf Collection encompasses more than 40 hotels and resorts situated on some of the most picturesque and pristine greens around the world and is the perfect complement to the Company’s growing portfolio of all-inclusive, lifestyle, upscale and luxury offerings around the globe.

Multi-year deal brings world's largest hotel franchisor and number one hotel rewards program into 120 ballparks, driving new hotel stays while unlocking one-of-a-kind member experiences
PARSIPPANY, N.J., (March 29, 2023) – Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, the world’s largest hotel franchising company with approximately 9,100 hotels spanning more than 95 countries, today announced a new multi-season partnership with Minor League Baseball. The deal makes Wyndham the Official Hotel Partner of Minor League Baseball (MiLB) with its award-winning loyalty program, Wyndham Rewards, becoming MiLB’s Official Hotel Loyalty Partner.
Wyndham chose Minor League Baseball as the program’s newest partner based on MiLB’s growing popularity, accessibility, and strong synergies between its guests, particularly its rewards members, and MiLB’s fan base. For the past five years, Wyndham Rewards has been named the number one hotel rewards program by readers of USA TODAY. Known for championing everyday travelers through its unmatched simplicity and generous rewards, the program offers members unparalleled access to a growing redemption portfolio of more than 50,000 hotels, vacation club resorts and vacation rentals round the world.
“Minor League Baseball has been grooming and celebrating the sport’s next-generation of stars for decades, all while entertaining fans and helping families make memories that last a lifetime,” said Dana Rosenberg, senior vice president of Marketing at Wyndham Hotels & Resorts. “Our partnership brings guests and members closer to something we already know they love, and in doing so, makes it easier than ever for them to unlock new value and experiences with Wyndham and Wyndham Rewards.”
Through Wyndham’s new relationship with Minor League Baseball, Wyndham Rewards members will soon be able to redeem points for unprecedented access to all that MiLB has to offer, including: tickets to Minor League games, one-of-a-kind experiences such as throwing a first pitch, behind-the-scenes ballpark tours, batting practice field access and more. Benefits are slated to go live later this summer.
“Baseball fans love traveling to see the many ballparks around the country and watching their favorite teams play,” said Uzma Rawn, senior vice president, Global Partnerships, Major League Baseball. “When you consider our Minor League Baseball stadiums around the country, on average nearly 20 by Wyndham branded hotels are within a 25-mile radius. It’s a partnership that truly fits like a glove.”
Wyndham’s partnership with Minor League Baseball also includes a series of additional touchpoints designed to raise visibility of the program among fans while simplifying travel to and from their favorite Minor League games. These include a heavy presence at over 8,000 scheduled Minor League games in the form of branded stadium features, sponsorship of Minor League Baseball’s Official Ballpark Guides, a robust social and digital media presence, and Wyndham booking links on MiLB.com as well as all 120 Minor League Baseball Club sites. The deal also carries additional benefits for Wyndham franchisees. Notably, official MiLB League travel will now include stays at Wyndham hotels.

One lucky at-home fan can win one million Wyndham Rewards points
GREENSBORO, N.C. (August 3, 2021) – Wyndham Rewards®, the world’s most generous rewards program spanning more than 50,000 hotels, vacation club resorts and vacation rentals, returns to Sedgefield Country Club this week as proud title sponsor of the 83rd annual Wyndham Championship, bringing with it the chance for fans at the course and at home to win their share of over 100 million Wyndham Rewards points.
“The Wyndham Championship is one of the most fan-friendly stops on the PGA TOUR, and we want this year’s tournament to be more rewarding than ever before,” said Lisa Checchio, chief marketing officer at Wyndham Hotels & Resorts. “From points for free night giveaways at the tournament to a chance to win one million Wyndham Rewards points just by watching at home, fans this year won’t just be dreaming about getting away with Wyndham, they can actually win the points to do it!”
A Return to Points Paradise Broadcasting on Golf Channel and CBS, this year’s Wyndham Championship will transport fans to a tropical, vacation-themed oasis. Signature course elements like Club Wyndham Beach and the tournament’s iconic sand sculpture are back and joined by fan favorite spots like Margaritaville at the Wyndham, the Wyndham Rewards Earner® Card Club, the USO Patriots Outpost presented by Truist and Heroes Vacation Club and more.
Also back this year is the Wyndham Rewards Points Paradise Pavilion. Thursday through Sunday, fans are invited to participate in a four-day interactive digital scavenger hunt that will have them searching course grounds for Wyndham Rewards branded QR codes. Using their mobile phones, fans will scan each code they find, unlocking Wyndham Rewards points along the way. The more codes they scan, the more points they’ll unlock—up to a four-day total of 15,000 points—enough for a weekend away at thousands of Hotels by Wyndham. Kids are invited to play as well for a chance to win instant prizes.
At-home fans in the U.S. can also get in on the fun by participating in this year’s watch and win experience, earning up to 3,000 points—enough for a discounted hotel stay at thousands of hotels—with a chance to win the grand prize: one million Wyndham Rewards points. To play, all fans need to do is tune into the tournament Saturday on CBS and keep an eye out for one of three larger-than-life, road-trip themed, sand sculptures. Upon spotting any one of the sculptures, they should head to WyndhamRewards.com, where they can click on the Points Paradise banner and indicate on which hole they spotted the sculpture. The first 5,000 at-home fans to log on and answer correctly will earn 3,000 Wyndham Rewards points while one-lucky fan will be randomly selected to win one million Wyndham Rewards points. No purchase is necessary to enter or win.
Millions of points will be available to claim for both of the above activations and fans must be members of Wyndham Rewards, which is free-to-join, to claim any earned rewards. Wyndham Rewards points will be distributed approximately 7-10 days post tournament and must be claimed by October 31, 2022. For more details on both of the above activations, including full terms and conditions, visit www.wynpointsparadise.com.

Wyndham Championship Fore! Good Creating positive impact in the community is a hallmark of the Wyndham Championship, and Wyndham Championship Fore! Good—the tournament’s signature philanthropic platform—helps give back to worthy causes in central North Carolina and beyond.
This year, in support of Wyndham Championship Fore! Good, when a PGA TOUR golfer makes birdie or better on the 15th, 16th or 17th hole during the third and fourth rounds on Saturday and Sunday, Wyndham Rewards will donate $500 to one of the Championship’s signature charities via “Birdies Fore Backpacks.” In addition, Thursday through Sunday, should a PGA TOUR golfer make a hole-in-one on the par-3 16th hole, Wyndham Rewards will donate an additional 250,000 Wyndham Rewards points to all four signature charities, for a combined total of one million Wyndham Rewards points.
Through Birdies Fore Backpacks, Wyndham Rewards works with local organizations—Backpack Beginnings, Forsyth Backpacks, Out of the Garden Project and United Way of Greater High Point—to help feed children from low-income families around the Piedmont Triad region of North Carolina. Backpacks are packed with nutritionally-sound meals, which families take home every weekend. Just $5 can feed one child for a weekend while $150 can feed a child for a school year. Since its creation in 2014, the program has provided more than 750,000 meals to thousands of local families.
The Wyndham Championship runs through Sunday, Aug. 7. Teachers, first responders and members of the military are invited to attend for free along with a guest after submitting proper registration. To learn more, or to purchase tickets, visit www.wyndhamchampionship.com.
