South Fork in Florence, Ky is closed.
9 hole close to and in same county as Idlewild which was reportedly very busy today with mostly non golfers not doing too good keeping distances.

On our local Facebook page, someone cleverer than I suggested that if the city wants to keep the courses empty, they should announce a 3-week "work day".

My course is closed to the public... hahaha.

I'm ready to weather the storm, got a 18 pole course two baskets, a hot tub and chickens... not the worst time to be a country boy.

Thanks. I changed conditions from from BAD, to UNPLAYABLE, but left your comment.

If the the city says the course is closed, it's unplayable .

As of today, they are leaving the course in Punta Gorda open. Solo or small groups only. They pulled all of the picnic tables and the police are definitely rolling through the park, way more than they normally do. Might be the only course in Charlotte county that is still playable.

Following courses are closed in Wisconsin to my knowledge - some are due to the COVID-19 madness, some had already been pulled due to every year spring thaw / rain / muddy conditions.

UW Parkside (all courses on campus)
Vollrath (Sheboygan)
Kiekhaefer (FDL)
Denoon (Muskego)
Valley View (New Berlin)
Spassland (Germantown)
Sussex Village Park
All 5 main MKE County Parks courses (Dretzka winter & summer/Brown Deer/Estabrook/Dineer/Root River)
Bird's Ruins (Marshall)
Yahara Hills (winter) Hiestand, Vallarta Ast, Capital Springs, Elver (Madison)
McDill Pond, Mead Park, Standing Rocks, Yulga, Big Eau Pleine (Stevens Point area)
Wilderness Campground (Montello)
Rowe Park (Onalaska)

This is no exhaustive list, and I would expect more to follow suit, unfortunately. Please follow state ordered social distancing requirements, and practice "better than you're used to" hygiene if you choose to play a course that's still open. I don't really care one way or the other if you follow the directives of the PDGA, but be smart, be courteous, and don't ruin things for everyone else if you do play. Please STRONGLY consider playing solo rounds only, or if you must, keep your group sizes small and keep your distances from each other.

Jeeez that's a big list. You might need some help marking all those UNPLAYABLE.

lol yup! I got barred from updating any more today after 5 courses. Some of them were already marked unplayable though, b/c they've been closed for weeks or months. Oh well, I'll plug away other days.

They have these signs all over Kensington Metropark:


Darn... Wireless signal doesn't seem to want to allow me to upload the picture. I'll have to do it when I get home.

Alabama's governor has sent out a memo that apparently closes all public disc golf courses in the state effective tomorrow at 5pm.

La Mirada: Course is "officially closed," according to La Mirada DGC Facebook page. Due to Coronavirus.

I updated the Course Conditions to Unplayable.

 

[Tripper]

Under the rules of our stay at home order in NC, parks are open but users are required to observe social distancing measures. Wake county specifically allows golfing. Wonder if that applies to disc golfing as well?
