Hi Everyone,
 
As many of you know, I work with the parks department, and for a while now I've been trying to convince the 'higher ups' here the value of constructing a disc golf course in the city.
This impromptu 'campaingn' is rolling quite well on this end, but I need to demonstrate to borough commissioners that there is a legitimate interest in Disc Golf in this city.
 
Just to give you an idea of how pathetic new York is compared to other cities in the US, check this out:

*Note, the only course in the city is an unofficial 'object' course in Prospect Park.
 
So I encourage you all to sign this online petition, and pass this link on to those who might be interested:

Thanks everyone,
 
Matt
 
P.S - a facebook group will be coming soon.

how about convincing the parks depts for more designated ultimate space? It's kind of a slap in the face when we struggle to find field space on crappy fields,...
