A word out to the masses to help get another course put in central Pa. Brad
Koppenheffer, (Buttercup to some:*), of Lumberjack fame, has a proposal to put a
9-hole course on a private piece of land=D>. This your chance to get out and
speak up about how a course could be designed. I got a chance to visit the park
this afternoon and had an idea of what Brad has planned. He drew up the plans at
the Lounge for the course last night after working the chainsaw on 16 for a
couple hours.
There is a walk thru happening this Saturday with the park owners, not sure of
the time yet, but I personally will probably be skipping SMT this Saturday to
help. Those that want to go from the west shore meet at the Creek and car pool?
East Shore meet at the Wal-Mart on 322. The park, Crest View Manor park, is just
off 322 in Hummelstown. The easy way for me to describe how to get there:
From Hershey and east: Rt. 322 to the 5-way intersection @ Chambers Hill
Road/Grayson Road. Make the soft right onto Grayson Road. Make a right turn at
the stop sign about 300 feet pass the light onto Millroy Road which becomes Nyes
road after the railroad bridge. Make the first right beyond the bridge, Old
Derry St., and follow approximately a 1/4 mile to where there is a sign to
follow main road to right (& go back under the railroad bridge - DO NOT GO BACK
UNDER THE RAILROAD) and side road to the left -MAKE THAT LEFT onto Oakshire Dr.
Park is 500 ft. on the left.
From Harrisburg and west: Rt. 322 to Mushroom Hill Rd., turn left and go to next
light. Turn right onto Grayson Road. Follow Grayson out to last stop sign before
Rt. 322, Turn left onto Millroy Rd., which become Nyes Rd. Make the first right
beyond the bridge, Old Derry St., and follow approximately a 1/4 mile to where
there is a sign to follow main road to right (& go back under the railroad
bridge - DO NOT GO BACK UNDER THE RAILROAD) and side road to the left -MAKE THAT
LEFT onto Oakshire Dr. If you go right and underneath the railroad bridge YOU
MISSED THE TURN. Park is 500 ft. on the left.
Come on out, show your support, & help grow our sport. Peace and good tossin',
