Disc Golf is Fun!

Thanks to all who joined us for the fall meeting. We had some good discussions, and we updated our contact list for the neighborhood watch. If you were unable to attend and would like to participate in the watch or have other questions, please feel free to e-mail me at jeremy.brann@gmail.com. We're still collecting dues for this year, which are $40.

If you haven't seen it yet for yourself, the new disc golf course at River Hill Park (across Crosby drive) is a HUGE success. It's generating a lot of interest in the sport, and dozens of people are using the course daily (myself included). For more information about the sport and the equipment, visit the Professional Disc Golf Association or Innova Disc Golf. I picked up a beginner's set at Dick's sporting goods (Fayette Mall) for $25, which includes a driver, mid-range, and putter. The River Hill course is 9 holes, which you can play in 30-40 minutes.

We're still planning to do a pot luck in collaboration with the Gainesway and Tates Brook neighborhood associations (12/15, 6:30pm at the new Gainesway community center off Centre Parkway). We're also doing a holiday decorations contest like we did last year. If you want to enter your home in the contest, just let me know before December 6th - it's free to enter. There are three categories to enter, and prizes will be awarded in each one:

• Decorated door, porch, or balcony
• Lighted house/yard decorations
• Un-lit house/yard decorations

We're also looking for a generous neighbor who is willing to store the two wreaths we hang at the entrance to our neighborhood (you'll see them up there soon). If you have room to store a couple wreaths with your holiday decorations, please e-mail me. Thanks!
