Opinion: NJ Golf Courses are Open – Should Mini Golf Reopen, Too?

New Jersey is currently going through the process of reopening and there have been a lot of debates revolving around what is opening when.

Gov. Phil Murphy recently opened state parks and golf courses. But now that some time has passed, should mini golf courses be allowed to open, too?

Mini golf is such a shore activity that a lot of families love doing in the summer.

Mini golf takes place outside and there could be a way to make it work while keeping everyone safe.

Customers would have to wear a face mask when out on the mini-course and extra time and space must be kept between mini golf parties to practice social distancing.

However, mini golf takes place in a much smaller, tighter area. Is it realistic to think that we can avoid COVID-19 spreading if the space is so much smaller than a regular golf course?

So, what do you think about mini golf courses?
