The All NEW Oak Island DGC (Designed by Ross Brandt):
One of Minnesota's newest championship level courses installed right in the heart of Bancroft Bay
Park in Albert Lea, MN. Disc golf fits perfectly into the weaving native oak trees, surrounded by the
natural waters of Fountain Lake. That's right, this course is on an island! Bancroft Bay is covered in
breathtaking views of nature and unique wild life that thrive along the lake shores. The disc golf
course itself offers a variety of technical holes, from tunneling lines to dangerous water shots, and a
few long bombers that are sure to utilize every disc in your bag. Come experience it for yourself, if
you're up to the challenge.

Albert Lea Tribune did a full spread on our tournament this last weekend, and the PDGA used it in their weekly update. Not bad for only half a field. You guys missed out on some fat payouts and awesome golf. Maybe next year.

It is so tough Aaron, I think that the sport is still struggling in some respects to attract more talent to travel.  That weekend we had our initial Team Championships and I tweaked my calf there, I am glad in some respects it happened locally, I would have been BUMMED to have it happen so far away from home.

I was a little upset personally about having our little events this weekend around the Shunga, but they both seemed to be well attended.

Also (food for thought here) less than a 2 week notice on this board tends to already have people thinking about other events.  I know that I typically have in my mind at least a month out what events I am leaning towards.  I know that is not to say that I may change some of the time, but generally I don't think about looking on the PDGA site for events, but rather like to support friends and go to new places, this would have been one of them I wanted to hit up. 

Plus it has sounded like a pretty cool little course from our reading notes!!


Glad you got great press!!
