We are beginning our Fall wind down based on the
change in the seasons. We are now open only on Friday, Saturday and Sunday
(See Hours page for more details). Our rock wall is closed for the
remainder of the season effective 09/28/07. We are planning on being open
through Columbus Day weekend which for us is a five day weekend (Friday
through Tuesday) because of the School schedules and of course weather permitting. The
Monday and Tuesday of that weekend we will be open 11 am to 10 pm weather
permitting.

It has been a great summer weather wise and
thousands of CNY'ers have enjoyed Big Don's to the maximum this season.
Thanks for coming and enjoying Big Don's this season.

We are now switching to our
fall hours which are the same on weekends as in the summer but on weekdays
we will now open at 3 pm. Yes, the vast majority of our business is kid
driven meaning kids with parents, kids with grandparents, kids with kids
and when you take kids our of the formula
(i.e. school) there is just
not enough couples and seniors to keep us open before 3 pm. We look
forward to seeing you in the afternoon or evening and also on the
weekends.
May 19, 2007
New Beach Comber Coin Hunt is now open. See Things
to Do page
May 1, 2007 We
are open every day. Check our hours page for more information. Hopefully
things will stay dry and sunny to make up for last year. We all have a fun
deficit thanks to 2006's rainy spring and summer. Our new Beach Comber
activity will be available in the next couple of weeks. More information
to follow.
April 18,
2007 Still some snow on the holes as of this morning. We will be open
this Friday through Sunday, Lord willing! The weather is finally looking
Spring Like.
April 12,
2007
Well we had
hoped to be open for Spring Break but the weather really did not comply.
It takes us a week or two of favorable weather (above 32 degrees at night)
to open up the course and de-winterize. We can't just flip a switch and
poof we're open. We have hundreds of feet of underground pipes that can
freeze as well as lots of equipment to set up and course maintenance and
upkeep so the place looks good for you. We do our best to be open for
those first breaking days of spring but I am not sure if we have seen them
yet. Now the weather is not looking so good for this weekend so we
will have to see. We are pretty much done so if the weather breaks, expect
us to be open! Thanks for your patience.

Spring 2007 is
just around the corner. As soon as the snow clears out, we will begin our
de-winterization and our Spring cleanup. We are shooting to be open by
Spring break in April which takes place for most districts, beginning on
April 7. Hope to see you then!
October 10, 2006
We are closed for the 2006
season! With the weather looking to again take a turn for the worse over
the coming days after a beautiful Columbus Day weekend, we have decided to
wrap it up for the 2006 season so that we can complete our close-up and
winterizing chores.
It was good to get
such a rainy summer behind us after a cold and rainy spring. People forget
that the first ten days of June hardly broke out of the 50's. In 2005 we
saw perhaps the most beautiful, hot weather that one can imagine, followed
by 2006 where we saw the third rainiest since 1922. Much of the rain
happened on weekends and additionally, the days where it did not rain, the
fantastic weathermen said it was going to. So difficult to win under those
circumstances. Despite all that, it was a fun year. Thanks to all of you,
our guests, for coming out and enjoying the fun at Big Don's, CNY's
resort level miniature golf course.
Looking forward to next spring, additional improvements at our facility
and perhaps another fun thing to do out here. God bless and look forward
to seeing you all again next year!
Thank you!

Squirt Tube
Frenzy is officially launched! Despite the cooler and wet weather
lately, Big Don's has had its first groups and birthday parties through
Squirt Tube Frenzy. All we can say is there was a whole lot of squirts
and a whole lot of frenzy....and of course a whole lot of smiles. In fact,
we had to practically pry the squirt tubes from the hands of some of the
participants, that's how much fun they were having. Even when it was 60
degrees today! Wait till it's 80-90!
May 29, 2006
Squirt Tube Frenzy in
our maze will be open on June 3 and through Labor Day.
May 17, 2006
This has been a kind of chilly and wet
spring so far! Our ice cream operation is open. Also, Squirt Tube Frenzy, our new maze
attraction is being installed between now and June 1. That will be a lot
of fun on hot summer days!
March 16, 2006
Wow it's been 12 months since our last update. Actually, that is due more to
the problems with my home computer rather than my willingness to update
you all....However, now we are back in the web update business and looking
forward to a great 2006 season! Just because the website has
been idle, it doesn't mean we have been. We will be opening on April 7 this year
(Lord willing and weather permitting) and will be open during Spring break
in order to handle some of the free time afforded our young people. More
updates are coming shortly!
