[DiscGolf] Disc Golf in Macomb Parks

[Jeffrey R. Calhoun]

Just a reminder - the park district board meeting is TOMORROW NIGHT (21st).
Please encourage all of your disc golfer friends (female and male) to attend.
Diversity in our representation could be as influential as total numbers.
If any of you need a ride, please send email to the list.

Also, I'm planning on setting up my portable baskets on the front lawn of
city hall at about 5:15 pm for anybody interested in a friendly game of
disc golf HORSE.  It's a great way to get in some putting practice.

Thanks!

>       PLEASE BRING A GOLF DISC TO THE MACOMB PARK DISTRICT BOARD MEETING:

>		Tuesday Sept 21
>		6:00 pm
>		Macomb City Hall (2nd floor)

>I've shared this with some of you already, but I wanted to let everybody
>know so they can lend their support.  I have approached the Macomb Park
>District with a proposal to create two new 18 hole disc golf courses in
>Macomb - one in Glenwood/Everly park, another at Spring Lake.

>My proposal is that I will raise the money to pay for basic courses - grass
>tees, single basket placements, etc. if the park district will maintain them
>and upgrade them to deluxe or championship level courses as usage grows.  All
>5 of the park board comissioners and the executive director have my proposal
>in hand.  Response, so far, has been very favorable.

>I have been requested to present and answer questions at next Tuesday's
>park board meeting.  I am 2nd or 3rd on the agenda so it will probably be
>6:20 before I'm actually called.

>Here is what I would like - TONS of disc golfers to attend the park board
>meeting - each carrying a disc - to show their support for more disc golf
>courses in Macomb.  If support is stong - and money can be raised - we could
>have the beginnings of another course before the snow flies.

>Thanks for the help!
