Let's thank these volunteers for the work they did last Saturday at Brewer. Using the map shown on " info / north course / hole 1 / fifth photo", see the actual holes for 3C thru 7C and 16C where much work was done. KEEP WATCHING this page for upcoming work days: clearing/cleaning, tee pads, and basket installation. Anyone with travel baskets want to organize a trial run on some of the new holes?

I was out playing the South course today, on hole one very first shot through a red Westside discs Queen to the right of the keypad in the high grass and couldn't find it. Not sure it has my name on it but if it does good to me please get ahold of me here or I may have my phone number on the back. Thank you in advance

I just uploaded the new/County approved design: it shows on the North Course, Hole 1 spot. It enlarges very well. Note: we could not make the southeast wooded area work this year as County had issues with water and large tree removal.

Fred Vocino    May 1, 2017 at 7:24pm

Please HOLD May 13 Saturday for our start on the course redesign. Fairway clearing for new holes and clutter removal is the plan for that day. THE COUNTY WILL NOTIFY ME AND I WILL CONFIRM THIS DATE HERE. The arrangements for tee pads and basket placements are still pending. Volunteer cement masons and related equipment have not been identified yet.

Repost--


Brewer Park Discgolf course redesign has been approved by Kent County. This means that we can soon go to the park and start making the needed changes. People, equipment and materials need to be coordinated.
1) This will start with a course inspection by people who would bring the materials and equipment. Those folks and course designers can do this at the earliest date they find mutually convenient.
2) We can now also find the dates all volunteers can come to the park and do the ... more

2) We can now also find the dates all volunteers can come to the park and do the work. The earliest dates with the most people available is the plan. The County will have a say in the dates selected, to be sure that no conflict with "other events" occurs. A confirmed start date will be announced later.
***Please indicate whether you are a resource for materials and/or equipment, and the dates you have available to attend a planning meeting at the park. You will be given the date this group has in common.
***Please indicate whether you can participate in work days and the dates in May you have available for that work. The most popular dates will be shared back and submitted to the County. You will be told the confirmed dates.

Hi all,
What awesome news for the new design being approved! In moving forward, I have been looking at league days and tourneys in the area. There are so many now! I am thinking that a great day/time to set our work days is Thursday's from like 4 or 5 until dark. This will not interfere with out local leagues or weekend tourneys in the area and also allow up to get consistent momentum in our clearing and install work. What do you guys think and shall we post it? Thursday 5/4, 5/11, 5 ... more

It would be my hope that between these 4 work days or one more, we would have the course in by the end of May or 1st week of June.
Enjoy a wonderful weekend! :-)

Lost my Blue Overstable Destoryer out on Brewer South on Hole #1 on the hill. It has my signature and PDGA #76314. If you find it please let me know.

Thanks

Left my purple/dark blue star teebird off to the right of hole 13 just in the brush. It has black tread marks on it and I can say what is written on the back. Would love to toss it again!

Erik Butterfield    November 2, 2016 at 1:56pm

Found a red disc on hole nine of the North (woods) course. Message me the type of disc if it is yours.

Ken B    October 29, 2016 at 11:38pm

I left a dayglow yellow DD Justice on 16 of south course. I live in Kzoo, but will gladly pay 15$ to ship it.

Curtis Earl    October 22, 2016 at 2:11pm

Anyone know Dave Hamlin? If anyone does, please let him know I'm at Earl Brewer now and I have a disc for him, thanks 😊

Many of you may have heard about the redesign effort planned for Brewer. The County has given preliminary approval for the use of new wooded sections of the park; final approval will be happening in the next few weeks. We can begin our preparations for the actual hands-on work needed to clear areas for new and expanded holes. This is to take an inventory of the player-community's resources: chain-saws, hand saws, atv (hauling, stump pulling, etc.). If you own or have access to implements th ... more

This is to take an inventory of the player-community's resources: chain-saws, hand saws, atv (hauling, stump pulling, etc.). If you own or have access to implements that can help with the cutting and removing of material this fall, please let me know about it. After we get a count of the equipment and volunteer crew we can schedule some fall days to get the work done that will get the land prepared for the spring 2017 installation work.
