10 Reasons to Choose Miniature Golf To Go

1. Easy Assembly

Our modular design turns almost any space into a full 9-hole golf course in 45 minutes or less!

2. Great Obstacles

Whether you dare to tackle the curves of ‘volcano’, or prefer the twists and turns of ‘Acapulco’, there is plenty to challenge any age or level of golfer.

3. Professional Putting Surface

Using interlocking astro grass tiles, the surface is very playable and sure to challenge all ages and abilities of golfer. Make your putt and watch the golf ball roll cleanly to the hole!

4. Birthdays

Since our course comes right to your home, you can have a great birthday outing for all the kids without the fuss and bother of transporting them to another venue. No crowds to fight, no waiting in line. The fun is right at your home.

5. Putting the ‘FUN’ into Fundraising

With a Mini-Golfathon at your school or a busy community event, you could raise money and provide a day of fun for all participants

6. Perfect for Weddings

Getting married? What a unique addition for your guests at the reception. Weddings are about making memories, and how memorable would it be to a great round of miniature golf with your closest friends and family!

7. Any Weather (even Midwest weather!)

Not just for outside, the course is rubber backed and won’t mark floors indoors. Have you an unused space – unutilized sports court, school assembly hall, hotel atrium, roof top terrace, empty office?

8. Ice Breaker

Need to break the ice at a company conference, exhibition, speed dating event or networking event? You can hire a single hole and run your own Challenge Putt; soon everyone will be mingling together.

9. Set-up anywhere

The modular design of our course can be adjusted to suit the shape or size floor area (virtually anything is possible!). Since the holes are outlined with foam edging you can create your own Mini Golf Zone!

10. Nice people to deal with!!

Just checking to see if you were still reading J A great reason to hire from us is - we love miniature golf. We grew up playing miniature golf and continue to play whenever we get the chance. We are friendly and efficient, we strongly believe in our concept – so why not let us help you with something different at your event this year?

There are many reasons, of course to more, but these are my favorites. Check out our website at www.miniaturegolftogo.com and see for yourself.

Day Care and Class Reunion

We had another great weekend for miniature golf as we covered the entire spectrum of the education system. On Thursday (I know technically Thursday is not the weekend, but it’s close), we were at the Apple Kids Daycare in Marion. The children had a fun time. Since it was raining sporadically, it was a wonderful opportunity for an indoor activity. The course was a perfect fit for their gym/play area.

Then on Friday and Saturday we had the opportunity to be part of the Ringsted All-Class Reunion which was held in conjunction with the Ringsted Danish Days. We set up in the park and got to listen to Rock and Roll Oldies in the background. Since I’m a big Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, etc fan, it made the set-up experience even more enjoyable. The weather held up (mid 70’s and slightly partly sunny each day), so it was perfect outdoor mini-golf conditions.

Be sure to bring the kids out to Westdale Mall tomorrow night. We will be part of the Chick-fil-A Kids Night activities from 5:30 to 7:30. It’s free, so bring the whole family and enjoy a round (or two) of mini-golf. There are also other great activities for the kids as well.

Tanager Place Summer Fest 2011

The Tanager Place Summer Fest was yesterday and what a fantastic event. The weather was excellent and the crowds were wonderful. There were people waiting in line for miniature golf but fortunately the wait was short. This was our second year in a row for the Summer Fest, and we can't wait for next year. Check out the video.
