Since ours is not a year-round mini-golf course, we offer school programs for the Big Back Yard during the month of September. This is a facilitated program, with a per-student fee, and we rotate as many as 180 kids throughout the day. We try to have about 50 kids per hour.
There is also a small window of time in late May or early June (the Big Back Yard opens during Memorial Day weekend) while school groups are visiting, but we don't offer the program for school groups during that timeframe.

It looks awesome. I lobbied our directors to build a mini-golf exhibition in the mid-90s and it got nixed because of questions about though-put. So tell us, can groups of school kids move through it in a timely fashion?
