Disc Golf Course Proposal- Abilene, Texas

The City of Abilene has approved a location for a Championship level disc golf course. The City has agreed to allow the use of the land by Cal Young Park, and we are seeking business and personal sponsorships/ advertisements for the development of the course. A championship disc golf course in Abilene would be beneficial for multiple reasons. In studies measuring annual recreational activities, "throwing a Frisbee" has consistently been a Top Ten activity, and a disc golf course serves a broader portion of our community than many narrower interest activities with higher cost, skill or fitness levels required to participate. With increased player presence, vandalism is reduced and also chases away other questionable activities.

While disc golf has relatively low capital and maintenance costs compared with other recreational installations, it is environmentally sound and a world-class disc golf course in Abilene will:

  • Help reduce childhood obesity by offering alternative fun outdoor activities
  • Keep kids out of trouble and help them boost their self-esteem
  • Stimulate the local economy due to tournament play by players from other states
  • Become a great addition to the community, designed by #1 course designer, John Houck
We need to raise capital of $50,000 for premium course design, tee signs, and baskets. Please consider sponsorship/advertising opportunities with this event to help with this endeavor. Thank you, Erik Johnson
