The cooler weather brings with it a desire to be outdoors. The colors, the scents, the activities – fall is the perfect time to enjoy outside. But not to worry! We have something for those who like to stay in, too.

We have prepared a fall schedule with so many awesome programs, activities and events that everyone can find something.

We will continue Freaky Friday Flicks which leads us into our many Halloween events, followed by sweet holiday-themed activities and then Valentine’s Day projects. Whether you’re playing sports, knitting a scarf, riding a horse, throwing pottery or learning to pitch a tent - our activity guide is the start to your best fall yet.

Disc Golf Also known as frisbee golf, disc golf was invented in the early 1900s when Ronald Gibson and some school friends in Bladworth, Saskatchewan, Canada threw some tin lids into four-foot wide circles drawn in the sand. They called it Tin Lid Golf. The sport was resurrected in the 1970s as disc golf.

Disc golf as we know it today involves throwing a disc at a target while using rules similar to golf. Players start at a designated tee area, throw their disc toward a target and continue from the landing position until their disc has reached the target. The goal is to use the least amount of throws by the end of the game.

We offer three 18-hole disc golf courses – Shillito, Veterans and Jacobson Parks. The Shillito Park course is a Mach 3 course with concrete tee pads and alternate pin placements. There are elevation changes with lots of trees. Hole #1 is just to the right of the pool entrance. Veterans Park course was built entirely by volunteers. Like Shillito, there are elevation changes with plenty of trees. Most of the holes are in the woods. Jacobson is 7,050 feet long and features a rolling topography and has a lot of variety. The front nine is wooded, with three holes in a large pine forest. The back nine is open with stands of mature trees. A nine–hole course is located at River Hill Park, 3800 Crosby Drive. This course features several different elevation changes and plenty of trees. This is a great course to learn how to play and practice your game. ADVENTURE
