Your reasoning of designing a dangerous course because we already have one, doesn't hold water. None of us want to injure a biker, walker, or other disc golfer, so one of the TOP priorities in the course design will be safety. Agree? Or are you just going to be obstinate about YOUR current design as being the best thing ever?
I'd like to see you work on the design, but it would be nice to see you work WITH the club, rather than against it.
As far a a meeting with Mike Aho, we actually got some solid information for a change, instead of what you and Jeff decide WE need to know. Apparently, what you and Jeff "know" isn't quite right, so try to understand and work within the parameters.

My idea was never to design a dangerous course. The one that is there is not dangerous. I am well aware that if the current flow/design will need to be changed. Whats actually happening is that we are in a process of figuring out what will work for both the bike riders and the disc golfers. We have been told that we were given certain areas and than told differently. It is really easy and completely against disc golfers best interests to have Gordy involved with this process.. I have never in my entire life heard somebody decide who was going to design a course and how many holes it was going to be with out even looking at the property. I would never send somebody to negotiate about a chunk of land who doesn't have the background not the interest in securing as much land as we possibly can. It is really easy for Gordy to say oh, ok, we can't have that and drop it because we don't need a maximum of amount of land to do what he wants. Having two courses will BY FAR serve our club the best. If you do realize that doubling the amount of holes in this town is the best thing for it. You have a problem with reality. There are more and more golfers and our courses get more crowded by the day. So if you actually want concrete results you should allow the person who has worked this situation where it is to continue to do so. I think that having any interested board member at the next park meeting is more than ok. I would ask that any board member to attend but that they should realize that they are there to watch and learn what a negotiation looks like and mostly listen. As it was it sounds like Gordy only knows how to listen and not how to attain things for us. Stimpi, when was the last time you played at Sekani? It has only been in is current layout for about a week.
