Save Pease Park Disc Golf

There is now a Facebook page for Save Pease Park Disc Golf!

www.facebook.com/home....174?ref=ts

You can go there and show your support for disc golf at Pease Park by:

Choosing to “Like” this page
Posting a comment, story, opinion on the page
Spreading the word about this page to others

AND

Under the “Information” section on the left-hand side, click “(read more)” and it will bring up the email addresses of the City Council members and their aides, Parks & Rec officials, and Austin Parks Board members. These are all people who, in one way or another, have power over the decisions at Pease Park.

You can send all these folks messages of support for keeping disc golf at Pease Park (even if the course has to come out during the main work project, we want disc golf back once the project is complete).


Below are several links to some of the stories that have come out recently regarding the closure of Pease Park. There are more on the Facebook page and others will be posted as they come out.

Here's a story about some erosion along Shoal Creek that has nothing to do with disc golf since it's further upstream.

DON’T FORGET! ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS TO DO IS SHOW UP AT THE PUBLIC MEETING NEXT WEEK!

THURSDAY June 17th (not Tuesday as previously reported – sorry about that)
6:30 pm
Senior Activity Center at 2874 Shoal Crest Ave (by West 29th & North Lamar Blvd).

The Waterloo Club’s Thursday evening mini at Zilker is CANCELLED this week. Instead, we need everyone to show up at the Pease Park public meeting. This is a huge opportunity for the disc golfers to show that we care about having disc golf at Pease Park and that we insist it remain a feature of the park once all the creek work is done.

Please don’t sit back and think that others will show up and save it for you. We need everyone there!!!

Help spread the word, and bring a crowd!

Thanks,
Waterloo Disc Golf Club
