Im looking forward to these events. A chance to play some new courses is always a good time. Is the park in Cottage Grove gonna be completely in the ground? is it already?

It sounds like its gonna be an awesome course. Is there a course map or anything made up yet? are there any HUGE holes?

Thanks to all you who have helped get the course in the ground.

no course map YET. but hopefully soon. there are a wide variety of shots. there's plenty of both right hand back-hand AND right hand fore-hand shots. there's OB, paths and water, open shots, tight tree lines, shorty's, a 700 footer, an awesome island shot, hopefully and elevated basket, and tee pads that taper inward.

it's going to be a nice course.

A few of the DGO crew will be attending 3 if not 4 of these events. Looking forward to playing golf with everyone at Cottage Grove!

That's awesome Ninkasi is sponsoring the throwing of plastic. Myself and a handful of others will try to make as many of these as possible. Viva the Hugene area!

UPDATE:
Cottage Grove Course is looking very good.
teepads are being poured, baskets put in place, mulch spread...

as far as the tourney is concerned, things look pretty much in place.
there will be a tourney central
there will be a bathroom
THERE WILL BE CHILI!!! (for 1$) thanks rebecca

be sure to be there on time and SPREAD THE WORD.

word.

discgolforegon · #9 November 5th, 2009, 11:33 PM

Can you post direction on how to get there?

Dr. Zaius · #10 November 6th, 2009, 12:23 PM

discgolforegon · #11 November 6th, 2009, 12:44 PM

So... im assuming its down the road that the treatment plant is on? we tried to find it a week or so ago and just ran into a racetrack like place? LOL...

good map though, im sure the morning of the tourney there will be people that we will see im sure.

looking forward to trying the new course.

Dr. Zaius · #12 November 6th, 2009, 01:14 PM

yup. yet another oregon course right next to a treatment plant

there is a gate right there, that locks in the evening. i believe there might even be a sign that say's no trespassing or something like that. don't worry, just drive right on in.

oh, and you'll be able to see hole one from the road. it's much easier to see now that we have a teepad and basket.

Since this isn't a sanctioned event and it's sponsored by a brewery, will there be beer? Free, or at least cheap beer?

sassalicious · #16 November 10th, 2009, 12:02 PM

I think we are going to make it down for this!

Can't wait to see the course!

we're checking into whether or not we want "free" beer at this event. probably not, because it is a new venue and we don't want to get in any trouble just yet. (dexter might be different on the other hand)

Drinking alcohol IS NOT PROHIBITED at the Grove. you can drink beer on the course.

We might be able to get some cheaper 22's from ninkasi, but that is up in the air for this first tourney. no worries though, we will have ninkasi disc golf shirts and discs (for sale), and other swag for ctps and scrip purchases.

i'm happy to hear that many of you are going to make it out. i have a good feeling that all of you will be impressed with what has been done in the short time we have had this piece of land.

THANK YOU ALL YOU HAVE HELPED!!!

these shirts will be 15$ and all proceeds go to our club and the completion of the cottage grove course. oh yeah, and i designed it! (it wasn't hard)

bvdisc · #18 November 11th, 2009, 06:32 AM

Sweet design.

bryan_luoma · #19 November 11th, 2009, 03:46 PM

Awesome shirt!

Discmonster25455 · #20 November 11th, 2009, 08:50 PM

Coming all the way from the Hood to get one of those sweet shirts, Large me please!!
