Hello NDG Friends!

As I mentioned last week, our designer John Houck was in town the last couple of days and we got a LOT done.  John seemed quite impressed with our work on the north 8 holes.  He marked a few more (dead) trees for removal, sculpted the fairways a bit, and gave us some good instructions regarding limbing up the trees on the fairways.  John's plan is to come back in a month or so and mark the teepads and baskets so that we can install them soon thereafter.

 

Also, I wanted to announce to everyone who hasn't seen it yet, that we recently redesigned our website, and if I may say so myself, I think it looks great...you can check it out at http://www.nantucketdiscgolf.org. My thanks to Noah Learner at Learner Design for all his hard work putting it all together.

This week, NDG workdays will be, as always:

Thursday at 5pm

Sunday at 1pm

Hope to see ya out there tomorrow!

Hello NDG Friends!

If I'm not mistaken, all the dead trees originally marked for removal are down and cut up on the north side. Great work, everyone.

This week, NDG workdays will be, as always:
Thursday at 5pm
Sunday at 1pm

As mentioned last week, John Houck, our designer will be arriving at the beginning of next week to put the finishing touches on the north side. Very exciting.

Also, I ordered the baskets. Unfortunately the application of the cottage red custom coloring means that we won't get them for 4-6 weeks, but I can assure you that once we get them, we'll begin putting a few of them in on the north side shortly thereafter.

Hope to see ya Thursday!

Hello NDG Friends!

A great week indeed. Finishing up the clearing of the final hole on the north side and it's looking good out there.

Also, I talked to the course designer (John Houck) yesterday and it looks like he will be coming to the island for a visit in a couple of weeks. Very exciting. Getting his feedback on the final trees to cut, the limbs to cut, and the specific spots for the teepads and baskets will allow us to move forward and put the finishing touches on the north eight within the next couple of months hopefully.

This week, NDG workdays will be:
Thursday at 5pm
Sunday at 1pm

For the time being and going forward, these will be the usual days and times, so jot that down on your calendar and come out and help us build Nantucket's first and only disc golf course.

Hope to see ya Thursday!

Hello NDG Friends!

Another great week. Thank you to Peter, Gerd, Anders, Phil, Mike, Brock and John for all your hard work. Though we still have a long way to go, we are getting closer and closer to getting the north eight cleared. Very exciting.

This week, NDG workdays will be:
Thursday at 5pm
Sunday at 1pm

Our plan right now is that we will stick with this Thursday/Sunday schedule for the next several weeks. Stay tuned for confirmation that this will be the case.

Hope to see ya Thursday!
