Itinerary:
Disc Golf is a fun and challenging game. It is similar to real golf but has a metal basket instead of a hole. The goal is to get your disc in the basket in the least number of throws. We will play the 18 hole layout. Baker Park is a well designed course in a beautiful park setting.

This event is suitable for beginners but basic throwing skills are really helpful in getting the most out of the game. Everyone should bring discs but I do have extras if anyone would just like to try it out. We may stop at nearby Angels Drive-In afterwards for post game refreshments.
