In Atlantic City, community has always been more than just a word — it has been a way of life. Through the Keep It Local campaign, the City of Atlantic City celebrated small businesses that shaped the city’s culture, economy, and identity.

Since opening in 2022, North Beach Mini Golf had reimagined what family entertainment looked like along the Inlet. More than a simple recreation spot, the course became a gathering place where residents and visitors alike came together to enjoy a fresh take on fun in the heart of Atlantic City’s newest wave of development.
