Does anyone know how to get ahold of someone who is in touch with the disc golf community that works for the parks system? It would be good to touch bases with them to make sure they're all right with us playing glow golf and anything we can do to help them and the neighbors of the park out.
come to a stumptown meeting is your best bet for meeting the local dudes what are in good contact with the parks folk... and work parties... and that way i don't put responsibility on someone who doesn't necessarily want our need it (jeff hagerty, eric lund i know are two guys who even sometimes have made it to the friends of pier park meetings... and i think the guy's name is dave blado... very unsure of that spelling, well, not the dave part... who has seemed to be organizing the work parties i've attended there).

definitely a good idea to make some contacts, tho... some of those neighbors are quite down on disc golf... which is just plain silly as disc golf has turned pier into a safe haven for families and folks to get out and be active and outdoors (apparently even at night).
