Didn't realize my old log in was still active after so many years of inactivity.
Surprised I still remembered the password.  Still not too much drain bamage I guess.
I've deleted OleO.
Back to being SteveO.

I started playing it about 3 years ago. Tried it on a whim.
It's high on my list of fun courses. Nice and technical.
Lots of moderate ravines to increase the fun factor.
Only a couple of holes where ya gotta reely wang yer disc.
I prefer finesse over brute force any day. Try the course
before the leaves come in so you can get the "lay of the
land". It's a different animal when it's all leafed-out. We
should take a field trip down there, Frank. As soon as it
warms up and dries out.

I couldn't imagine the course, the only "real" current user of an
under-utilized park, being allowed to continue to exist when so
many additional facilities and activities are being planned. We're
truly fortunate that we "hogged" the park for as many years as
we did. I'm thinking the tees are on the drawing as reference points.
The Ropes Course (supervised!) and related clearing appear to
cover the entire area currently used by all of hole 9 and half of
8 and 10. #12 has most of the middle of the fairway occupied
with Council Ring and Fireplace. You get the idea. There are
just too many facilities planned for an area where a disc golf
course is already "shoe horned" into a postage stamp-sized
park. It'd be pure insanity to allow disc golf to exist when moms
are wheeling baby buggies on the path and junior is climbing
the rock wall and sis is camping with her BlueBird Troop in one
camping/picnic area, next door neighbor Tommie is camping with his
Cub Scout Pack in the second camping/picnic area and cousin
Nick's Boy Scout Troop is using camping/picnic area #3. Da joint
will be jumpin' on the weekends. I remember the course 25+ years
ago when it was a run down park in the outskirts of a sleepy, little
town. We're being ousted by progress. I'd like nothing better than
to be proven wrong in my belief that the course is toast....but I'm
not holding my breath.

We'll just have to hope the bulldozers are a few years off.
