Show ToacK From 6B "I've been able to see a generation grow up and learn to golf. This is a great environment for kids to learn, get them out away from their computers." On the Toad's side, Bitton is working to add two more rental rooms to the existing three by the end of the summer, to make more space for corporate and private parties. The management also went from purchasing video games for the arcade to leasing the equipment to provide a stream of new games for visitors. It is also offers more promotions such as $100 pass for Little League teams to use the batting cages. In all, Bitton said the new ownership has invested about $100,000 into the center so far, all while lowering prices to make the center more affordable. So far, it has been business as usual for Chris Dahlberg, a longtime patron of the center who primarily uses the driving range. He said he has been practicing at the center since it opened. His concern is Contributed photo Patrons recently use the batting cages at Toad's Fun Zone and Mulligans Creekside Golf Center, 1690 W. 400 North, in Marriott-Slaterville. Intermountain's long-term plan. "This is probably our premier driving range in our area," Dahlberg said, "and it would be sad to see it go." The question is, he said, where will people go when they make it into a hospital?. Dahlberg said it is a nice place for developing young golfers. "It will be interesting to see what happens with the development of the area." It is also a place that hires a lot of teenagers. "This is such a part of this community," Van Dyke said. "We provide a lot of first-time jobs for young kids." Bitton expects it will be at least another decade before Intermountain does anything with the property. "Toad's will be here for years to come."
