Don't forget that there are monthly council meetings where residence's can talk about what they would like to see. Typically one has to submitt a few weeks prior to the meeting to get on the Agenda. I got the commision for NSRA in Sedro-Woolley which was through Skagit County Parks and Rec. I sent out a letter, much like a cover letter for a job interview, to the local goverments around me and they responed. Mount Vernon or Burlington were not interested but now that the seed has been planted I'm hoping for more.

When you do talk to someone be sure to bring up examples of underutilized and trashy parks and how a disc golf course can inprove it. For example I'm sure Twin Rivers in Arlington had a fair amount of vagrats before the course was installed. I know park activity from Non-golfers is up in Sedro-Woolley because they feel safe with golfers out. I know Cornwall park in Bellingham was filled with drug using bums but the course has pushed them out.

Hey hard economic times it tough for familes to do family activities on a budget, however disc golf provides the perfect oppurtunity for low-budget family fun. Be persistant, stay open minded, and good luck!
