And on a side note:
As an "environmental freak" who teaches environmental science AND plays A LOT of disc golf, all park users need to strike a balance with the needs of the ecosystem and how we use the land. If we abuse it, we lose it. It's called conservation and this idea goes back to Teddy Roosevelt. The land is there for us to use but at the same time, we need to maintain it for future use. If a change in the course might harm the ecosystem you should care because it's all interconnected.
Nicely said, Carrie. Way better than I could have put it.

Oh, one other thing. Please do me a favor and go slap Pizzel up the side of his head.
