Disc golf comes to Pine City


On top of everything else PTC offers, now students have a new way to kick back and have fun -- you might call it "recess!" Now debuting in Pine City is disc golf, brought to you by City of Pine City adminstrators and the Parks and Recreation department.

"The sport is growing in popularity, and I am sure PTC students will enjoy playing," says Nathan Johnson, City of Pine City Planner.

Discs are available at Lee's Pro Shop, and soon, SuperAmerica will make them available as well. Disc golf is played much like traditional golf; the object is to throw the disc from the tee area to the target "basket" in the fewest number of throws.

Located on the Snake River at Voyageur Park, the new Pine City disc golf course is challenging and scenic, and best of all -- free! For a map of the course, see the image below. For more information, call the City of Pine City, 320-629-2575.
