My recent profile post: West Michigan has momentum in the growth of discgolf that can make this area what Silicon Valley is to IT. New evidence of this is found in Berrien Co. in two parks off Exit 28/ I 94. Benton Township Park yesterday featured a temporary course and a small gathering of players who responded to the hopeful invitation of Larry Leonardi and friends. With another established park accross the beautiful St.Joseph River (Riverview), a venue for major tournaments can be imagined. I'll start with this: The Michigan, Indiana, Illinois (Tri-State) Championships. Rotation around the southern curve of Lake Michigan would further cement West Michigan's role on the National scene.

I had a great time yesterday. Thanks to Larry and everyone else that helped out and made this event possible. looking forward to future tournaments. Congrats to all the winners. and thanks to all the people that showed up to support a great cause. The weather turned out great and the course setup was really fun. on a side note maybe requiring pre registration payment on Events like this would get people that registered to show up. All in all. an awesome day with great people that did make it.

Thanks for setting up the course Larry, it was a lot of fun today. I know you won't give up and will still fight to get a course established for the area - as long as I am available you can count on m ... show more ›

Thanks for setting up the course Larry, it was a lot of fun today. I know you won't give up and will still fight to get a course established for the area - as long as I am available you can count on me showing up to help support your efforts. side note If anyone came across an orange pearly orc with a custom dye on it in hole 6 fairway, give me a shout, reward available!!!

Well there you have it. That's why we will NEVER get another disc golf course in this area when all anyone has to do is SHOW UP for a freaking tourney and play 2 rounds on a awesome temporary course. Not do any clearing, setting up, tearing down...just the bare minimum: show up. The showing from the locals was really really pathetic today and words cannot express how disappointed I am. I do not EVER want to hear any bitching whatsoever from anyone EVER about not being able to get a new disc golf course in Berrien County. We have ourselves to blame.

I am done with disc golf tournaments and probably done with disc golf altogether.

Tried to register for Advanced Grandmaster, but it did not have the option at payment page...change it if you'd like. It actually does not matter because I cannot make it over from Chicago anyway...have to work. Signed up to lend support for the tourney and possible new course close to my in-laws. Good luck and have fun everyone! ~jake jacobs

Google Map shows what looks like spring high water effect on park grounds. If that is the worst it gets, then a permanent course should be playable year-round. Will there be holes with river OB possibilities that will add to the challenges? Are there potential OB areas defined by seasonal pools near the fareways?
