North Eco Park, Canby
Hey DiscGolfers!
The course is looking pretty dang good right now. Half of the tees are completed, and we did a ton of clearing on Saturday. Get out there and enjoy it!
Side Note:
PLEASE abide by the "No Alcohol" rule on the course! The Park Dept has already talked to me about this as people are leaving their beer cans and bottles all over the course. Please clean up after yourself, and if you see anyone else's trash, pick it up as well! We need to be good stewards of the opportunity we've been given!
Thanks a ton!

New Course Approved for Canby, Oregon!
What:
The City of Canby, Oregon has approved a 12 hole course for the north end of Eco Park. The course is designed with the intermediate player in mind, but will be playable by beginners, as well as being enjoyed by more advanced players. Nine of the twelve holes are fairly heavily wooded while the other three are in an open field. The terrain is predominantly flat, with a little bit of undulation to add some variety to the greens. The holes are mostly on the shorter side in the mid 200s with ...
