The city of Red Wing, Minnesota hopes to attract a prominent management firm to operate its shuttered golf complex.
A get-together at the 36-hole Mississippi National Golf Links, a troubled facility that was abandoned by a previous operator, reportedly attracted nearly a dozen interested parties, among them representatives from KemperSports and Billy Casper Golf.
“We were really pleased with the turnout and the interest,” said the president of Red Wing’s city council told the Rochester Post-Bulletin.
The city is accepting responses to its recently issued request for proposals until September 27, 2013. It aims to reopen the complex next spring.
