Minor Park Golf Course

What Minor Park Golf Course does

Minor Park Golf Course is a single-site, 18-hole municipal golf facility established in 1966 and located at 11215 Holmes Road in Kansas City, Missouri. The course measures 5,668 yards with a par-70 layout featuring tree-lined fairways and small, challenging greens, and is positioned as an accessible, walkable course for players of all ages and skill levels. The facility is owned by the Kansas City Parks and Recreation Department and operated under contract by Orion Golf Management.

The operation is built on a standard municipal-golf technology stack: the website and CMS are powered by TeeQuest, while online tee-time booking, tournament registration, and the branded iOS/Android mobile apps (with GPS scorecards) are delivered via Gallus Golf. PGA lesson scheduling is handled through SwingMatch Golf and PGA.com, and the course participates in the GHIN handicap network. Ancillary on-course services include a driving range (with range balls and an MG Grips regripping service), practice greens for chipping and putting, and an on-site grill/snkackbar with food, beverage, and a range-and-lunch bundle.

Revenue is generated through a diversified mix: per-play green fees (walk/ride rates with senior, junior, and twilight tiers ranging from $17 to $56), annual and multi-month memberships (Patron Pass at $75, KC30 Pass at $625 for 8 months, KC Junior Pass at $50), driving range ball sales, PGA lessons, F&B, and a calendar of themed tournaments, seasonal leagues, and corporate/group events. The customer base spans individual recreational golfers, families, league players, corporate outing organizers, seniors, juniors, and lesson clients across the Kansas City market.
