Miniature Golf in Gaithersburg: Course Opens on May 4

 

Families that enjoy miniature golf will be happy to see that the Gaithersburg Miniature Golf Course will be opening on Saturday, May 4, 2013. Enjoy the spring weather and a few rounds of miniature golf with your entire family.  Note the Mother’s Day special.

Local residents are fortunate to have many City sponsored recreation options. The quality of life in the Gaithersburg community continues to attract families that are relocated to the Metro Area of the District of Columbia.

This is the notice that is being distributed by the City of Gaithersburg:

The City of Gaithersburg invites you to “Come Play a Round” on its beautifully landscaped miniature golf course, located at Bohrer Park at Summit Hall Farm, 514 South Frederick Avenue next to Gaithersburg High School.  The course is open weekends May 4 through June 14, daily June 15 through August 25, and weekends only again August 26 through October 13. 

The park opens at 11 a.m., and closing hours vary from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. depending on the day of the week and the season. Please note that the park will close at 7 p.m. on Memorial Day, Independence Day and Labor Day.  Play must start one hour prior to the posted closing time.

Rates per game are just $5 for City of Gaithersburg residents and $6 for nonresidents. Unlimited play is $2 more.  Discounts apply for Senior Citizens.

On Mother’s Day, May 12, treat your mom to a fun round of golf to celebrate her special day.  Moms play free with a paid customer.  Several other promotional days are planned this year, too.  Dads play free with a paid customer on Father’s Day, June 16.  Celebrate Couple’s Day on July 14, Military Day on August 4 and Senior Citizen Day on August 18 with buy-one-get-on-free specials.  Grandparents play free with a paid admission on Grandparent’s Day, September 8.  Then on Closing Day, October 13, enjoy one half-priced ice cream per paid admission ticket.

Birthdays are extra special at the Golf Course, with packages that include golf admission, drinks, ice cream, and paper products, all for only $11 per child (10 guest minimum).  For an additional $5 per person you can make a day of it by adding a visit to the newly renovated Water Park right next door to your party package.

For hours, group rates, reservations and additional information please visit www.gaithersburgmd.gov/minigolf or call 301-258-6350 x133

Hi Roy:  Miniature golf makes me think of spring and summer.  There are so many types, from those that are for young kids to those that have hills, valleys, multiple layers, obstructions, etc.  But all bring on a lot of fun.

[Roy, I did meet my commitment to post a blog daily beginning today, 05/01/13.]

Roy,

This is my level of golf.  I have been on those courses once, and I found that it was a lot of fun. A

I haven't played miniature golf in years.  The last time I played, I was so bad, I wanted to sit out the last holes.  Yet, when we came to the end of the course, there was an opportunity to try for a hole in one for a free game.  And, with a lame try, I actually won the FREE game.

Roy, like Myrl, I haven't played miniature golf for a while. Last time was in Hawaii and enjoyed it immensely.  Makes me want to play.
