Get Ready Richmond, Maine!

I love mini-golf. I have been following the progress of this family-owned and built mini-golf course and ice cream shop called Moose Mountain! It's all from the brain of Jeremy Purington of Purington Construction. He wanted to bring something exciting to the place he calls home - Richmond, Maine. He loves living in Richmond with his wife and two boys, but when they want to do something, well...they have to leave. That's when Moose Mountain was born.

This was the beginning of a new outdoor adventure park just off Exit 43 in Richmond.

Moose Mountain will open on July 1!

It was built into the side of a mountain on a ledge. The theme is Maine. There is a tree house, campfire, walk under waterfall, and even a beaver dam. And of course, there's ice cream (you can't play mini golf without ice cream) and an event room for birthdays! Jeremy is a family man who wanted to build something that families could be excited to visit. he even had his two boys (10 and 12 years old) help build it!

Jeremy has big plans for this adventure park! Mini golf is just the beginning. Next will come a ropes course and climbing walls. They did concrete sculpting and painting working with a super-talented local artisan. Jeremy asked,

Can you tell which is actual ledge and which is painted concrete?

Nope. I can't. They spent an enormous amount of time and effort in making this amazing.

Jeremy's inspiration for the adventure park and mini golf course was where his business, Purington Construction, is...Richmond, Maine. He wanted to give back to the community that he loves and that has loved him back. But I also think he loved building this adventure park. No one has ever been that excited to see 1200 square yards of putting green carpet and 130 gallons of glue!

I've never been this excited to head to Richmond, Maine!
