| Abstract/Contents: | Discussed the possibility of a climate-controlled, dome-encased golf course, which is "part of the proposed $900 million Myriad Botanical Resort hotel and casino project in Mississippi's Tunica County." Details the specifics and dimensions of the resort, which will be located about 30 minutes south of Memphis, Tennessee. Discusses the cost of the golf course, the included gardens and the dome, which is estimated to be about $100 million. Describes the other attractions in Mississippi, stating that "the Myriad proposal includes more than just gaming and golf. Plans also include a five-acre water park and snow park, complete with artificial snow." Also states that "with a climate-controlled environment, even on a bad day you can golf. And golfing 24 hours a day, 265 days a year starts to make some sense." |
