Years back Mercer County Park had a disc golf course. The game wasn't as popular and it was taken down in the late 90's to my knowledge.
I don't see why this very populated and well off (money-wise) county does not have a course. The Mercer County Park offers everything from Ice Skating to Cricket. But yet, Disc Golf has lost its space.
The park is over 520 acres wide, and is spread over 2-3 towns. The parks has plenty of potential to become a GREAT place to host a course. It is in a great neighborhood, and in/out of a town, Hamilton, NJ which was named the 18th safest town in the US (based on crime).
The park is well maintained with its various walking paths, 17 softball fields, re-done basketball courts, dog park (which no one uses).
I know many of you are not from NJ, but something has to be done there. Someone maybe like Cubby who is obviously from the Area would step up. Cubby plays constantly at Rutgers and the private course in Cranbury. Well Mercer County Park is dead in the middle of those two locations. Central Jersey is really lacking a disc golf course, and something needs to be done.
I know what your thinking....well why not go in front of the board or the park commission and give them your ideas....well I've yet to EVER play disc golf. I'm a total NEWB, but I believe with the popularity it has, and quickly growing, it can become an asset to the park.
Does anyone know how to contact cubby? Hope to hear some responses soon...
