Fore! Good moos for South Shore miniature golfers.

USA (SANEPR.com) May 7, 2008 -- HOLBROOK, MA AND SHARON, MA…For the past few weeks, patrons to Crescent Ridge Dairy Bar in at 176 South Franklin Street (Route 37) in Holbrook could only dream of playing a round of miniature golf before or after enjoying one of the world’s 10 best ice creams, as ranked by the National Geographic’s “10 Best of Everything: The Ultimate Best of Everything.” On May 3, the wait ended as Crescent Ridge Dairy opened the Mini Putt-Putt Golf for the spring, summer and fall seasons.

The Crescent Ridge Dairy’s Mini Putt-Putt will be open on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. The Mini Putt-Putt will be open seven days a week starting June 1.

“The Mini Putt-Putt was a big hit with our customers and played a big part in Crescent Ridge Dairy establishing a presence at our new location in Holbrook,” said Mark Parrish, president and third generation of the Parrish family to run Crescent Ridge Dairy. “Last year, we didn’t get the Dairy Bar up and running until August, so we’re completely excited to have both Dairy Bar and Mini Putt-Putt fully operational for the entire season.”

In addition to the nine-hole miniature golf course, the “Dairy Bar” serves Crescent Ridge Dairy’s 31 flavors of ice cream and five flavors of frozen yogurt as a way to cool down after a round on the links. The Dairy Bar also offers drive through and walk-in service and sells frappes, ice cream cakes, sundaes, pies, Crescent Ridge Dairy’s whole, 1%, 2% and non-fat milk, eggs, juice and steamed hot dogs.

In opening at its new location in Holbrook last year, Crescent Ridge Dairy has become active in several charitable endeavors in the local community. That’s a trend that will continue in the second season.

“We would like to make the Mini Putt-Putt available to non-profits and other charitable organizations looking for a different kind of fundraising event,” said Parrish. “What better way to raise funds for your cause by having a mini-golf tournament and topping it off with our world renowned ice cream?”

Non-profits interested in holding a fundraiser can contact Marcos Lins or Deb MacKinnon directly at the Hobrook Dairy Bar at 781-963-1016.

Besides its Holbrook location, Crescent Ridge Dairy has another “Dairy Bar” at its headquarters in Sharon, Massachusetts.
