He had a dream and he is making it a reality; it was actually quite literally a dream that Brian McKinney dreamt, and he is taking that piece of his subconscious and implementing it in Buda.

McKinney, a history buff and the grandchild of a WWII veteran, sold his auto business to open up the first Memorial Miniature Golf and WWII Museum. He plans to set several records, such as the longest par five in miniature golf, sitting at 315 feet long, and opening this literally one-of-a-kind business. This for-profit business also plans to make donations to veteran organizations and to museums. And with a lot of 3.5 acres, there will be more to the playscape.
