Poll: Will you give Tipsy Putt a go?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

After sitting vacant and dark for three years, the old Lone Star site premises directly opposite the Waikato Regional Theatre has been transformed into a world of movie themed mini golf... with booze on the menu.

The site is Hamilton hospitality veteran John Lawrenson’s newest venture and he said the soft opening attracted a crowd bigger than he had anticipated.

From rugged campsite to 7.5ha resort

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Grant Kilby has always loved camping. His mum was director of health at the YMCA, and he would attend YMCA camps in the school holidays. “I think it was mandatory that I was there,” he jokes.

He went on camping holidays with his parents, and later, took his own kids.
“Camping’s been in my blood.”
