The event made the evening news on ABC Channel 6. The New Bedford Standard Times article about the event was also picked up a library blog called “The Shifted Librarian” in Illinois.

Come to the Southworth Library on Sunday, January 27, 2008 between 9 am and 4 pm, for a swinging good time for the benefit of the Dartmouth Library Foundation’s Bucks for Books campaign.
Play 18 holes for 5.00 on an indoor miniature golf course set up throughout the library. If your score is low, continue on into the championship round for the finalists. Enjoy refreshments, face painting, massage therapy, silent auction items and more. Bring the family for a fun afternoon complete with refreshments and prizes for our winners.

Mr. Bolton is hoping to take the concept national with a Golf for the Gulf campaign to benefit the victims of Hurricane Katrina. He is providing the course to us to help us through our budgetary perfect storm.
