This Course Is Taking A Beating! 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Oct 6, 2017 Played the course:once

Pros:

The Duplessis Primary School Disc Golf Course occupies the lawn area in the front as you enter the school. This could be a decent area for a little elementary school course if anyone gave a rat's behind. Apparently, no one cares here. The so called course is in terrible condition. The baskets are Discatchers but # 4, 7 and 8 are missing and #'s 3 & 9 are sagging with the basket catcher part lying on the ground. Not that it matters much but the # 5 basket has a leaning top part. Someone must have been jumping up and down on it. Now combine the poor condition of the baskets with no tee pads and no signs and you're not playing with a full deck. It's like playing solitaire to dawn wth a deck of 41.

There is some good news. The restrooms were open!

Cons:

Three baskets missing.

Two baskets sagging.

One basket with top band bent and leaning.

Three baskets are surviving, thus far.

No tee pads.

No signs.

Nasty creek on left side of # 7 fairway. Since I never actually found the # 7 basket, I may be amiss in calling this the # 7 fairway.

Other Thoughts:

This is really a shame because the land is actually pretty good for an elementary school course. The grass is green and plush and there are some scattered trees to hide baskets behind or to use as obstacles. If there were nine working baskets here, they could easily be spread around the lawn to make a very enjoyable but short course for these students. You wouldn't need signs but some kind of a marker for the tee pads would be nice, like a simple front board. The course probably needs to figure out their basket problems first, you think?
