Golfers who were hoping to tee off at the 9-hole Pioneer Golf Course at the Bluegrass Army Depot in a few weeks will have to take their clubs elsewhere. The Depot is shutting the course down for good. Public Affairs Officer William Ritter said closing the course was a matter of dollars and sense.
“It's purely economics. Our new commander took over last year and been evaluating all the operations around the Depo. And unfortunately, the golf course was one of them that was losing money.”
