RONCEVERTE (WVDN) – Visitors to the Ronceverte Island Park can expect to find a new miniature golf course welcoming them in the space currently occupied by the Jardin, the park’s community garden.
Ronceverte business Gateway Industries has proposed an 18-hole golf course to add to the growing activities that have recently opened and are opening soon to give everyone in the community something to enjoy.
“I am so happy that the city of Ronceverte is working with Gateway Industries to bring back miniature golf to the Ronceverte Island Park,” says Ronceverte Mayor Deena Pack. “I have many fond memories of playing miniature golf there as a kid. Now, the kids in Ronceverte will have the same opportunity.”
City officials have met with Gateway Industries to get an understanding of the plan and to assist in making this fun addition to the park a reality once again. Pamela Mentz, the city administrator for Ronceverte, confirms that Gateway Industries has the full support of the city to move forward with the project.
There is no set date for when the miniature golf course will open, but city of Ronceverte officials are working diligently with Gateway Industries to move the project forward.
Currently, planning is underway on what features will be included at the different holes to highlight all the things that make Ronceverte the special place it is.
“Gateway Industries has been a wonderful partner for many years, and I’m so proud that this new venture will allow Gateway Industries to continue to employ and serve the special needs community,” says Pack. “It’s a win for everyone”
A map of the proposed miniature golf course is currently on display in Ronceverte City Hall.
