THE COURSE
HOLE 1: Color Wheel *NEW*
By: Tom Loftus and Robin Schwartzman
Up to four players can putt together at the same time on the Color Wheel. Pick a color and race to see who can get the ball in first. The winner subtracts one point from their score!
HOLE 2: Thrillo-Brillo
By: Yousif Del Valle, Tom Loftus, Andrew MacGuffie, Meena Mangalvedhekar, and Amy Toscani
Clean up your act! Are the odds stacked for or against you? Take your best Pop shots to play through this Warhol-esque hole.
HOLE 3: Tale of Two Cities
By: Jordan Hedlund
Step up for the challenge of this Minnesota-themed hole! Choose Minneapolis or St. Paul, but beware: the great Mississippi River could swallow up and return your ball. Your Goal? Putt up to the Iron Range and sink it!
HOLE 4: Ball Aboard
By: Michon Weeks and Christian Weeks
Take a ride on the light rail from Target Field Station. Choose the Blue Line to the Mall of American or the Green Line to Union Depot. Stay on track to your destination! If you get off at the wrong station, wait there until your next turn. Place ball near hole to continue play.
HOLE 5: Reflection of Choices
By: Chris Crammer
When the unexpected happens, decisions must be made quickly! Drop your ball onto the ramp, then consider all your choices as you hit some bumps and surprises along the way.
HOLE 6: Putt-Pong
By: Trevor Anderson and Barry Kudrowitz
The fast pace of ping-pong and careful strategy of putt-putt come together here. It’s up to each golfer to decide how to play: are the paddles an advantage or an obstacle? Launch your ball over the net and into the hole to score.
HOLE 7: The Uncertainty Principle
By: Kenneth Steinbach and Dave Denninger
Control is only an illusion! Aim for one of the holes winding up the track and let the Uncertainty Principle take over. Though it may seem random, there’s a subatomic force at work. Let the words of theoretical physicist Werner Heisenberg guide you in your quest.
HOLE 8: Let’s Be Frank
By: Yousif Del Valle, Tom Loftus, Andrew MacGuffie, Meena Mangalvedhekar, and Amy Toscani
Step back in time with an all-American favorite.
HOLE 9: Block Party
By: Tom Loftus and Robin Schwartzman
Get ready to play! Toy blocks, abstract sculpture, and color field paintings inspired this hole’s design.
HOLE 10: Piece of Cake *NEW*
By: Tom Loftus and Robin Schwartzman
Play with your food! Use the bumpers to help get your ball to the top of the ramp to find the sweet spot. Is it as easy as pie?
