Lomma Miniature Golf
Celebrates 52nd Anniversary

In a proud statement issued from their company headquarters, Lomma Miniature Golf announced that 2007 is the 52nd Anniversary of the founding of their business. The company was started back in 1055, the same year Disneyland, a steel-and-concrete "Never-Never Land" for youngsters, came to life at Anaheim, CA. The super amusement park cost some $17 million. Disney's real life dream world attracted at least 5 million callers a year. This was at a time the minimum wage was $.75 per hour, a gallon of gas was $.23 and milk was $.92 per gallon.

What Else has Happened in 1055?
