In Yorkton, Patrick Park Disc Golf Course is the venue to experience the sport, located off King Street. Opened in June 2011, as nine basket course it has proved a challenge for experi- enced disc golfers with trees to manoeuvre through from almost every tee box, and yet forgiving for beginners since the course does not have hazards where discs can be lost. The original nine at Patrick Park is a par- 27 and covers 2379-feet. The experience was expanded in 2015, through an initiative spear-headed by local players, and supported by the City, to install a set of nine alternate tee boxes, which affords players an opportunity to play a ‘back-nine’ with new approaches to the exist- ing baskets. The ‘back-nine’ is a par-33 and extends the course by 3037-feet, by utilizing some new disc golf features, in particular several mandatories, specific features a player’s disc must pass around in a particular direc- tion — left-or-right of the marked feature. In the spring of 2020 the course grew with nine baskets being added around the base YOUR of the city water tower and across the street COLLEGE throught the hills of Rodney Ridge. The YOUR changes in elevations give disc golfers a very different set of challenges. FUTURE The Yorkton course is one of those under the banner of the Parkland Association of Disc Golf. The Association represents more than 20 courses — all within an easy 125 km radius drive of Yorkton. In 2019, several courses grew from tonals to baskets including Sandy Beach on Good Spirit Lake and Asessippi Beach and Campground north of Russell, MB. New basket courses were installed at Churchbridge and Sun Hills Resort near Togo. For more information email padg.york- [email protected] More events will be announced as the season continues.

The initial step was to determine the fea- sibility of stocking the pond and man-made stream work undertaken by the Fisheries Project Coordinator of the SWF. Once it was determined that fish would likely be viable they had to develop suitable habitat. The habitat development included riffles in the stream, areas of stone which create pool areas, and help aerate water as it passes over the riffle area. That work was started earlier in 2012, and algae and insects in the water, which biologically speaking is a positive sign, began to appear quickly. There was also vegetation started along the water way to create a complete habitat. The City of Yorkton along with Yorkton and Saskatchewan Wildlife Federations, and the Assiniboine Watershed Stewardship Association stocked the pond in the spring of 2014. Rainbow Trout were the fish of choice. The fish grew well over the first summer, and www.tourismyorkton.com PAGE 19 family recreation for all ages; driving range; ball diamond, Accommodations horseshoes; 2400-yard golf course with irrigated greens and tee box, miniature golf course.
