Okay so I have been talking with a local park about installing a disc golf course. I am going to talk to them sometime this week about setting up a temp course to see how it would affect the park, I was also thinking of hosting an ace race while the course was set up. Since we would be doing the ace race it would probably have to be late Oct. for the temp course. I just wanted to see what y'all thought of this and if anyone would want to volunteer some baskets to help set up.

EDIT: This would be the first disc golf course within 60 miles or so in the area.

Temp course would probably be set up for a weekend or maybe only a Saturday. It would be open for regular play but hopefully do an Ace Race to help support the installation of permanent course.

Where is this located?

The park is in Patterson. About an hour and 15 min from NO, Baton Rouge, and Lafayette.

NO Team can bring a basket or two if it doesn't conflict with other tournaments.

Lafayette has an Ace Race Oct. 13 at Girourd Park at ULL. Lake Charles has one on Oct. 20. There is a 30 mile rule, but Patterson is more than 30 from Lafayette. Need to get started with publicity. You will need to order player packs, minimum 20, two weeks prior to the date of your Ace Race. That will run $400 for 20, so try to get reg fee up front. Most Ace Races have more fun events than just the Ace Race itself. Plenty of ideas on Discraft.com. Good luck. If I can help answer anything, let me know. I did my first one last year. Its a fun event.

Yeah I will have other stuff set up such as ring of fire and such. This would be a fundraiser for a permanent course being built at the location. I really need to get baskets so that I know I will have enough for the event, hopefully I could around 20 baskets.

Probably looking at November-January date for a tourny and it would not be an ace race since it is not in the time however it will still have extras. I am hoping to get this course built by January/February.
