Other Thoughts:

Northstar Elementary is located in the northern part of Knoxville, IA. They have placed 6 baskets here going from north to south (seems the best route) around the open areas of the school grounds. I began at the north end of the parking lot and ended near the SE corner of the school. There are no tees, no signage, but a hint of course. #2 and #3 play through what looks like a baseball field of sorts. #4 shoots right near the middle of the playground and therefore shoots toward #5 from that spot. You can at least give the kids a taste of disc golf with these baskets, but they are nothing to write home about. Add some signage and tee pads, really make it a course and you would add to the rating. Bag it, if you'd like, but off school hours. I won't be back.
