Each summer, the sidewalks of downtown Charleston transform into a pop-up putt-putt course. This temporary course features more than 20 holes – which have each been sponsored and customized by a local business or organization. The result is a unique, one-of-a-kind miniature golf course that allows people to explore our downtown, showcases regional companies and small businesses, and provides free entertainment to friends and families.
Putters and balls are available at these locations: Taylor Books, Adelphia Sports Bar & Grille, Art Emporium, and Tony the Tailor.
Want to be a part of the fun?
Businesses and organizations can sponsor a hole for $250 ($150 if you’re reusing your hole from a previous year)
