Well... apparently volunteering one's time, money and energy in to disc golf courses in Salem is frowned upon by the people that claim responsibility over said courses. Probably why Cascades Gateway Park looks the way it does...
Due to "complaints" over the improvements I've helped oversee at Woodmansee I've been asked to stop my volunteer efforts.
Sorry disc golfers...
No more clean up of trash or debris!
No extra trash cans installed and maintained on the cour ...

We get it's hot out and we want you to hydrate yourselfs.
But Woodmansee City Park is not a trash can!
It does have trash cans though! Please use them!
If you drop it, we have to pick it up!
Went to play today and instead didn't the morning picking up 50 lbs of trash!
Good job Zac and appreciated, to bad lots of folks have no respect for much of anything these days and this is one way it shows, trash

Well it was a good day at Woodmansee today as we got all the tee signs back in place and basket repaired same day service. This should be a link to some pictures Zac took today. Still got a finishing touch to do to signs and that will happen shortly, depending on weather and my schedule. I will also be looking for volunteers to help with next project of moving dirt and fixing up tee pad areas. Will need wheelbarrows, shovels, and volunteers. Work could be done at volunteers available time, ... more

Basket is better and back in place!
Hoping to get tree signs in later this afternoon/evening..

Any interest in a PDGA Sanctioned League here? Friday or Saturday start round anytime 4 to 6 pm.
ideas and/or thoughts?
PDGA sanctioned leagues accually hurt your rating if you play courses like Cascade or Woods...
Don't see how'd that be the case. Any events or leagues one does, and does well at, will only increase a rating if you beat others that play the same course. Which course doesn't make a difference. And Leagues give 1/2 the points of a c-tier event.
Just to clarify... from the PDGA...https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9Y6rggA16t_bVN6cWUyQ0FSSHc/edit?usp=docslist_api

Be sure to let us know when the backfill work party's happening... and I hope it's not during regular work hours! I wanna pitch in!
The dirt might have been delivered today. I'm going to check in the morning. If there it'll be next week starting tuesday most likely. Thank you for offering to help I'll keep everyone informed.

Have you noticed all the work being done at Woodmansee Park Disc Golf Course?
Check out the "Project List" and deadlines for upcoming maintenence and improvements at:

Zac Teuscher June 8, 2015 at 8:40am
There is a purple Wraith thrown off 18 into the big tree and/or bushes is the middle. If you find it I have the owner's info on me. Lmk
Mark McKeever June 1, 2015 at 2:08am
I believe i left a vibram there yesterday, white and purple has my name and number on it, please let me know if you see it.
I'm not sure. I cleaned my discs before I went and played didn't remember using that vibram but when I went again It wasn't in my bag. the only 2 holes I would use that disc at is 5 and 8.
THE "BEAST" OF THE WOODS May 28, 2015 at 4:54pm
I found a Cell Phone at Woodmansee park near hole# 2 yesterday. Please call me to confirm it is your lost phone and to meet to return it. (971)701-7074
trent hughes May 28, 2015 at 5:51am
My buddie lost a green and white vibram lace today on hole 8. His name is Mark S. The disc should be some where in the thick on the left side of the fairway with all of those trees and brush. Thanks!
let me know if you find a flag pattern Katana I lost a couple days ago on hole 3
Steve Moore May 26, 2015 at 11:03pm
I hope all enjoy Woodmansee course as it is looking the best it has in a long time. Between hand mowing and weed wacking Zac and I have been able to get done last 5 days and this gem of a course is starting to shine bright again. Tee sign repair should be happening in next week or so. Thanks all and enjoy it.
and i wish they putt in a new sleeve for 8long...wich 6 could share the sleeve as well...
I think we are talking about same location Lee, It will be basically between 6 long and 8 short about equal distance in the little clearing we have started to clear, final approval coming about some clearing for flight path. Anything being done is with approval as required, input from folks welcom ... more
Steve Moore May 26, 2015 at 1:39am
Got a few more hours out at Woodmansee this morning getting some more mowing and such done. Still got some more detail work to get done but overall would say 90% done, major areas cleaned up. Tee sign repair will be coming next and hopefully backfill for around tees happening at some point, waiting to hear back from parks department on that one. Come out and enjoy this gem of a course, good practice for all sorts of shots.
Steve Moore May 25, 2015 at 2:02am
Just in from good 4 hour work on Woodmansee course. Holes 2 and 3 mowed down and looking pretty. Bring on your roller shots for hole 2 around corner to right, they will roll now without the tall grass. Will be trying to get back there tomorrow for some more mowing and such, anyone welcome probably be there by 10 again. Hope all enjoy as this gem of a course comes back to life, sign repair coming soon also. Steve
thank you steve! maybe i can head down there tomorrow. just got back from hornings.
Why would anyone in their right mind want to complain about the volunteer work you have done at local courses?
No complaints here zac. I was down there when you and steve were doing the signs and i think everything is looking great.
Zac, you're the man. And we appreciate it. Them askin you that is a big reason why I didnt associate with that group when I lived there
Well this just continues the saga I've been dealing with for to many years now. Got the place looking good and signs all done few 3-4 years ago. No follow thru from local club and it ended up looking sad and trashed again over the years. Zac hasstepped upto help lead this effort again with mi ... more
Well this just continues the saga I've been dealing with for to many years now. Got the place looking good and signs all done few 3-4 years ago. No follow thru from local club and it ended up looking sad and trashed again over the years. Zac hasstepped upto help lead this effort again with mine and Parks dept support and approval. Course is looking real good again, new signs just in,few more plans in place for improvements and safety issues. This morning with complainent from CCDG we are shut down in our efforts at this time. What part of any of this makes no sense to me. It will all come out when meeting held to resolve this ongoing issue one way or the other. It's been way to long coming out into the open and now is the tme to get this resolved for the best of all, not just for a few. Thank you for letting me speak my peace. Been banned from CCDG page even though I am currently a paid member. That in it self should say something.
Just to clarify, there was no complaint made by Capital City Disc Golf Club.
I have been playing there for the last 3 years. It had been getting trashier and trashier so we went less often. I have been there a few times this year and like all the improvements you all have done. It is unfortunate that someone feels as though your volunteer work is stepping on their toes. Do what you can I enjoy the course and what you have done. Was looking forward to the surprise.
Actually Kayla one of your members was mentioned by name... :-(
Kayla, sounds like you and Barry should have some communication then. Seems that's where it came from as I know it at this point
Good luck down there guys. Wish we could all just work together.
Same old DGD (Disc Golf Drama)...
Drama free DG since 2013....come get some ;) http://www.discgolfscene.com/clubs/Wingers_and_Flingers
Our members are individuals, many of whom are members of many groups/clubs in the area. One member does not speak for the club as a whole. I personally appreciate all of your efforts out at Woodmansee, I just wish that you had some respect for others who try and do things as well. If everyone worked together it would be a lot easier to get things done.
Kayla, yes your members are individuals, unless on board at least in my case seem not to be heard or worse. As far as if a board member makes statements that cause this kind of things to happen it is taken as a statement of the board. Something to think about and better communication to all who pl ... more

As far as if a board member makes statements that cause this kind of things to happen it is taken as a statement of the board. Something to think about and better communication to all who play our sport should important both to and from the board since as members we have no vote on anything. Just want this all worked out and how best to handle all this. Still would like to know who your contact with parks is has there seems to be some confusion with who we are dealing with and who CCDG is working with. Also would be nice to know for all what agreements are in place. Thank you
Wow... I've seen some things... taken the damm cake... who wants a piece :)
Wow! Drama
not to keep things going here but it seems to me Zac, that you should continue to improve the couse no matter what anyone says about it. As long as you have the ok from the parks dept. go for it. If anyone else wants to help, then great. If CCDG wants to do things to improve the course then great. I ... more

If anyone else wants to help, then great. If CCDG wants to do things to improve the course then great. If all can work together to improve the course the that seems best. I have enjoyed the improvments and I have family members that have started to play disc golf partially because of the improvments. It just seems to me that this is a public course on public land and anyone, with the approval of the city can help to improve the course.
Thanks for the support Doug, I've been working with him on this project to bring the course back into shape it should be in. Just got the new signs in and still have more plans in the works.

Thanks for the support Doug, I've been working with him on this project to bring the course back into shape it should be in. Just got the new signs in and still have more plans in the works. Hopefully we will have this all resolved once and for all in next week or so. We just want to handle a complaint that was brought againest us for part of the work that's been done. I've been happy to see more families and all making use of the course due to improvements and new repaired tee signs and such
My two cents is similar to Dougs. The course looks great and your efforts are super appreciated by those that play at woods regularly. As long as your not breaking any city rules, screw whatever anyone negative is saying!
