Golfing: Arizona's Tourist Attraction
Written on Friday, March 21st 2008
Down in Phoenix Arizona, state legislators are working to keep the local Fountainhead Golf Course open. Why could lawmakers want anything to do with golf? Besides loving to play golf, this particular course is a big tourist attraction, but has been going downhill in the past few years.
Area legislators are scrambling to find a way to keep Fountainhead Golf Course open. The state Department of Tourism and Recreation, which operates the course, has let the grounds and facility deteriorate. According to the department, the course now attracts about 14,000 rounds each year compared to 20,000 a few years ago. The department and others in the area contend, however, that the course is needed and in great demand.
If this course is shut down, don't worry, there are plenty of beautiful courses all over Arizona that any golf enthusiast love to play.
