SUMMARY:Grassland Mini-Golf at the Flint Hills Discovery Center
DESCRIPTION:The Flint Hills Discovery Center (FHDC) opens an exclusive temporary exhibit on Saturday\, January 10. \nGrassland Mini-Golf invites guests to discover the rich ecology of the tallgrass prairie as they play through nine minigolf holes. Score a hole-in-one and discover a story about prairie plants\, animals\, and the delicate balance of this unique ecosystem.\n\nNavigate the night to meet nocturnal animals and hit the ball through the tree.\nPutt\, putt\, putt the ball gently down the stream\, using the rocks to guide the way.\nStep back in time to discover a Mosasaur Fossil but be careful not to get bit.\nHerd the ball into the barn down on the ranch.\nand more!\n\nEach of the nine minigolf holes is designed by the FHDC staff to introduce guests to a part of the endangered Flint Hills ecosystem and educate them about the importance of preserving the prairie. \n“What better way to introduce people to the Flint Hills ecosystem than with a fun-filled 9-hole minigolf course\,” said Stephen Bridenstine\, FHDC Director. “This exhibit will have you thinking on your feet as you aim for that hole-in-one. And when you combine it with our Stepping into the Prairie immersive exhibit\, it is guaranteed fun for the whole family.” \nVisitors can also solve several prairie puzzler brain teasers to improve their score. \nThank you to our sponsors\, The Flint Hills Discovery Center Foundation\, and Visit Manhattan. \nIn addition to Grassland Mini-Golf\, the Flint Hills Discovery Center is pleased to bring back Stepping into the Prairie. This one-of-a-kind exhibit uses high-definition projectors\, surround sound speakers\, and motion sensing devices to create a virtual Flint Hills environment that reacts to guests in the space. The exhibit features the sights and sounds of the tallgrass prairie\, digitally recreated to produce an immersive educational experience. \nStepping into the Prairie is funded in part by Kansas Tourism\, through the Tourism Attraction Sub-grants for Kansas (TASK)\, and the Flint Hills Discovery Center Foundation. \nGrassland Mini-Golf with Stepping into the Prairie is open during regular hours January 10 through May 10. Regular admission rates apply.
