Scott,
This is Craig Bryant, I have started throwing again. Anyways my wife works at the North River Ymca and they are interested in possible adding Disc golf activities to their Home school program and the fit kids program. The Grapevine has already donated some disc, just want your input on setting the program up. Thanks
CraigB
