Um only a place to practice
Pros: Great baskets. Area provides opportunity to refine short game. really short game
Cons: Almost everything. The baskets take up a very small area and no rhyme or reason to the layout. If there were some trees great place to practice. I only found one marked tee pad and that was 9.
Other Thoughts: I ended up just playing a game of 21 with my discs shooting from one basket to the next so i could cross this course off. No real reason to ever play again

A Field of Baskets
Pros: -Nice brand new DGA baskets
-The course is set in a well groomed and taken care of grass field.
-Slight elevation changes on one or two of the holes.
-Very little chance of losing a disc
-Good open place to work on short drives and putting work
-Introduces kids to the games
-There could be an opportunity to play some safari holes here

Cons: -The course is hard to navigate mainly because of the tee-pads. Tee-pads for Holes 3-6 are marked on a drainage ditch, and the tee-pad for Hole 1 and 9 are marked on a sidewalk. They are nothing but chalk drawing on the concrete and get very easily covered up by dirt or washed away making the course very hard to find.
-Holes 7 and 8 don't have tee-pads, rather hole 7 tees off from the basket for 5 and hole 8 tees off from the basket for 6, which can be really confusing as this is in no way marked on the course.
-Tee-pad 9 is on slanted on a hillside and can be a little hard to throw from
-All of the fairways cross at least one other fairway. If there is another group on the course at the same time there will definitely be conflicts and I recommend keeping an eye out for incoming discs.
-The course has almost no obstacles on it, as it is basically just set in a wide open field. Most of the shots boil down to straight shots with absolutely no risk/reward
-None of the holes are very long (but if you play some safari holes, you can definitely add some distance to a few of the holes)
-This course is close to the playground and other areas and I would avoid playing it during school hours

Other Thoughts: Overall, this course is basically an open field with nine baskets thrown into it. It's a good course for its intended target of elementary schoolers to get them playing the game, but for anyone else there is very little of interest at this course.

Fun For All Ages
Pros: At elementary school, so it will encourage young players. It offers a wide range of shots. A great place to practice approach.
Cons: When school is in its best to stay away. Short holes with over lapping fairways.
Other Thoughts: It may not be much, but for what they had to work with i think they did a great job.

Cons: Hard to find tees/no tees
Short holes (< 200ft), beginner course
Presumable course congestion/cross traffic for more than 1 group

Other Thoughts: We had fun trying to make up the tees as we went along. The "course" has some potential, if some of the baskets were moved to more challenging spots, maybe involving the park more, or putting the baskets further out on the field at least. 8 and 9 need to be exchanged so there is no unnecessary walking. For the most part, we used the previous hole as the tee for the next hole. I think 3, 4, 5, 6 have tees in the drainage, 1 can use 3/5 tee, 5 and 6 had a tree "obstacle". Need better marking for tees definitely.

What the ???
Pros: New DGA baskets is about it
Cons: -No tee pads or poor marking. Uses drainage ditch concrete for pads I could find.
-Baskets are very close to each other, appear to be just thrown into the ground
-Poor use of land
-No signage

Other Thoughts: It seems like the school district just bought new baskets as part of a budget/grant expense and threw them into the ground.
There's very little sense you can make of this course except that it's for the little ones to mess around on, but marking on the tee pads that I could find indicate otherwise with a couple 200-300' holes.
I played 4 holes that I basically made up before it started raining and I left.
If someone actually put some time in to design a course layout for the space it could be a nice little 9 hole beginner course. Especially if it could expand into the adjacent park a little.
What a waste of some good baskets.
