Our Student Blogger Proves That Mini Golf At The Porch Is For All Ages!

By: Rosa Ziegler

It’s probably been more than a decade since I last went mini-golfing, and not having children, I would likely have gone many more years without doing so. Thankfully, The Porch at 30th Street Station helped me rediscover my inner child.

After picking up our clubs, balls, and scorecard, the challenge was on. It was a close match all the way and finally ended in a tie. Though I’m not what you would call “a good sportsman” I had lots of fun. Plus, turning in your scorecard at the end of the game qualifies you for a chance to win a gift certificate to Dick’s Sporting Goods. I’ll take the backdrop of the Philly skyline over a miniature windmill any day. 

The 9-hole course is open 7 days a week from 10:00am to 8:00pm and is completely free. I can’t think of an easier way to squeeze a little fun into a busy summer. Now I just have to go convince the rest of my friends to give it a shot.
