Just read on the PDGA site where a private course was closing. The owner sited the reasons as his struggle with arthritis AND a lack of volunteer help / donations to a mower fund. As a disc golfer, owner of a private course and distant friend of his, my heart sunk as I read the post.
I'd just like to encourage people that have the opportunity to regularly play private courses to keep this in mind. Maybe skip buying a new disc this month and donate the $ to the owner, or better yet, skip a round and donate your time to course maintnence. I guarantee it will be appreciated more than you'll ever know, and may be the factor in keeping a course open.
To all those that build ANY courses and/or volunteer time maintaining them, I thank you every day!
