GIBSON CITY – A group of Gibson City-area investors is interested in buying Railside Golf Club.
A newly formed nonprofit organization, the Ford Development Foundation, has asked the U.S. Department of Agriculture for a loan to pay for most of the cost of buying the 200-acre golf course from Gibson Golf Inc., a group of businessmen and women who started the course in 1993.
