We are going to be adding about 7 tons of rocks to help reinforce some eroding/washed out areas on the course as well as adding more smooth pebbles around the practice basket hill area. (YES WE DO NEED MORE ROCKS...)
This has been scheduled by Raleigh Parks and REC for FRIDAY 5.30.25 9am to noon. Here is the registration and event details link.

Unfortunately this falls on a Friday Morning so I understand if you can't make it, but if you can that would be awesome!!.
Immediately, after the event KWDGC will provide pizza and beverages for all volunteers, followed by a free entry into a random dubs round of METAL MANDO MADNESS for all volunteers with $50 for 1st place, $25 ace pool/throw.
We will flip discs for teams. If you haven't played this before it is alot of fun. You can participate in the round after the work/fun day, however the entry is $10 if you didn't volunteer and you get no pizza:P
If you love Kentwood and wish to see it well tended for and get a chance to hang out with some other great and wonderful people*, please come out and show your support.
(*the term great and wonderful people is highly subjective and may be biased towards disc golf hooligans:))
