disc golf course at Nonotuck Park
Good day all. Has there been any consideration at putting a disc golf course at Nonotuck Park in Easthampton? I'm not sure if it is possible, but seems like it would be a great place to have a course. Please provide your thoughts
Re: disc golf course at Nonotuck Park
There is a terrific little "pocket course" on the edge of Nonotuck Park, a four hole three basket course at the White Brook Middle School. It might not worth traveling a long way to play, but if you are in Easthampton you have an open first hole to a slanting green, then a tight tunnel birdie run, followed by an interesting "S" hole through the woods. The fourth hole plays as an open fairway back to the first basket. The school uses the course for gym classes, but summers its open for public play.
I'm sure if this course gets a core of regular players the prospects for a full 18 in Nontuck will get serious support.

Nice little course for people who live near it, and the children at the school (being initiated to the sport) but sadly I think expansion to 9 at least is needed to make this a serious destination for people to travel to (though I recommend it to anyone traveling through the area) . I am not sure more people playing here will bring the attention that is needed. Has anyone ever approached the town (or whoever oversees Nonotuck park).
