I'm not sure who's authoring this drama, but less than an hour ago, Mountain Man posted on Facebook that the course has been saved.
thanks for the update, my heart rate has gone down
can us non-FB-users get a quote of the relevant info?

And just like that, Highbridge Hills was saved! I can't share any details other than to say that if you liked the Resurrection phase of the hill, you're going to love the Renovation phase coming up next. Business as usual for the rest of this season. Then I'm handing the keys over to the future of Highbridge Hills. This is gonna be a fun ride!
A whole lot of people put a whole lot of effort into saving the hill, and a whole lot of people looked in to what they could do to help. I really can't thank each and everyone of you enough. I do need to thank two people who went above and beyond in their efforts, and if you see them, please thank them also , because without Chuck G Kennedy and Charles Hartley doing what they did, I could not have made this happen. Highbridge Hills for life!!!

I didn't intend "authoring" as critical -- more of a "fact is stranger than fiction", going back to the JJ years. If you wrote a drama with this many ups and downs, people wouldn't believe it.
Agree that it will be a challenge but some of the things planned for revenue generation beyond disc golf specifically might make it more sustainable in the long run. For example, the camping revenue has been a solid contributor since Tom took over and that will continue to improve. Establishing a pro shop with an online presence along with onsite camper supplies and food sales are some of the more obvious improvements that will help.Good luck to whoever decided to poor more money into the money pit. Hope it works out for them. I love that it exists. Will always have a hard time seeing it being remotely sustainable that far from most civilization. Enjoy it while it's there, fellow DGers.
Mountain Man learned from the carpet and furniture stores who are always having "Going Out of Business" sales... But this was a legitimate "Crying wolf" situation.

Do you foresee the property hosting Pro Tour events one day? If so: Do you think the courses would need to change or layouts be temporarily modified to accomplish that?Agree that it will be a challenge but some of the things planned for revenue generation beyond disc golf specifically might make it more sustainable in the long run.
