Golf Course Operational Study Community Meetings Announced

Golf Course Operational Study Community Meetings Announced

Participate in the Future of Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board Golf

Because you have previously subscribed to receive news and updates about Minneapolis golf courses we thought you would be interested in these upcoming meetings regarding the improvement of our golf courses.

The Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board (MPRB) seeks community participation to help develop the long-term strategic vision of the golf courses managed by the MPRB. Six public meetings are planned from September 19 through October 5.

All meetings are open to the public and everyone is welcome, including golfers, non-golfers, and course neighbors. All six meetings will follow the same format, which includes a brief introduction from the consultant on the project, Golf Convergence, and an opportunity for public comment.

Participants will be invited to discuss and evaluate MPRB’s golf operation during course specific conversations. Although each meeting has a “home course” listed, participants may attend any meeting that fits their schedule and offer input on any course.

Mark your calendar and join us at the following community meetings:
