It's Official!

What a great day. Devens Disc Golf is now officially a go!

I just got back from a walk-through with Brian and Kathy (the Devens Rec director). We hiked the Hill and were quickly huffin' and puffin' after the first two holes. Yes, welcome to Devens. I showed them my proposed layout and Kathy was excited about everything and said we can start installing our temp baskets and do some minimal clearing. Brian is ready to hit the fundraising trail, so be expecting a phone call...

Unfortunately I will be out of town next week, so we will have to wait until I get back. Looks like nothing but disc golf weekends for me the next few months with tourneys on Sat. and workdays on Sunday. Whoboy...

If you want to help out, please email me (stove95xxATxxgmail.com -- replace xxATxx), even if you have done so in the past so I can update my list.

Kathy also mentioned she got two thank you emails last week, so thanks for your support!

The Magic Letter

The magical letter has arrived. We heard yesterday that the insurance company for Devens has no problem with a disc golf course on the property. Next up is a walk-thru by the Devens environmental and recreation people who will note any sensitive or off-limit areas.

Given all the stuff going on with Devens as they try to figure out if they are going to become a town or get parceled off to the surrounding towns, we are very happy with how quickly things are moving. Again, special thanks goes to Kathy Wiberg, Manager of Devens Recreation, for all her support! If you'd like to send Kathy an email thanking her for her support, I'm sure she'd appreciate it. I know we would!
