Blackfalds Disc Golf Course
The Optimist Club of Blackfalds has brought forward a proposal for a disc golf course within the Town of Blackfalds, and we would like to invite the public to share their comments, questions and/or concerns about the proposal.
The two locations planned for the 9-hole course are the greenspace north of Eastpointe Drive and McKelvey Close (holes 1-4), and within the green space which houses the Pine Crescent Community Garden, playground, outdoor rink and skate deck (holes 5-9).
Detailed hole information:
- Hole 1 ~ 350 ft, long, flat and open. Target is 50 feet from edge of property fences.
- Hole 2 ~ 260 ft, long, flat and open. Target is 80 feet from edge of playground.
- Hole 3 ~200 ft, trees obstructing path to target. Target is 25 feet from edge of pond.
- Hole 4 ~260 ft, flat and open.
500m walk to Pine Crescent Park
- Hole 5 ~ 180 ft, small change in elevation with trees obstructing path to target.
- Hole 6 ~ 200 ft, flat with some trees in pathway to target.
- Hole 7 ~ 200 ft, flat with path to target requires going around Community Garden trees.
- Hole 8 ~ 200 ft, requires accurate shot making with trees directly in front of the target.
- Hole 9 ~ 125 ft, tee shot requires playing around trees immediately in front of tee box
