If they would like to continue disc golf in Yauger park, they are welcome to use the equipment that our club purchased and installed. If they decide to remove disc golf from their agenda, we will take possession of the equipment.

On a brighter side, the Lacey Parks dept. is very open to the idea of disc golf. We (SPSDGA) are currently working with them to design a course in Woodland Creek Community Park.
That's good news, what's the timeline? I'll check out SPSDGA, is there a website?
I was at Yauger yesterday. The 8th basket (back by safeway) was almost completely destroyed. I did see a bunch of tee pads by the new parking lot, and a few pipe mouths buried in the ground which baskets could be placed in. Although a lot of discs will go into the lake there. And maybe a few into the apartment parking that's right there.

What's oly parks and recs problem? Do they just have it in for disc golf? Or everyone?
