putt putt kids

Great to see that kids were enjoying themselves at the Putting Lot.  Eventhough this little baby is too small to hold a putter, glad he’s still entertaining himself with the astroturf cover palettes.  Sooo cute!

“Pachinko Putt Putt” by Meat Pallet

[concept]:  influenced by the Japanese game, Pachinko, get your ball up the ramp of the furniture “Pachinko” wall.  Wherever the ball falls/bounces down from the ramp will either land you a potential hole in one, take you closer to back where you started, or just somewhere in between.  great challenge!

Awesome hole dave, hannah, laura, jeff, and justin!!  Love the details of the wall.
