Coonskin Park during the colder months

If you are looking to get in an early morning round of disc golf at Coonskin Park this winter, then please take note of the following announcement.

Players at Coonskin Park must wait until the grass is free of frost to begin play for the day. This precaution helps to keep the golf course in good shape. Feel free to inquire at the clubhouse if you are unsure of conditions on any given day.

Last chance to play at Shawnee Park

Sunday, October 29, 2017, Shawnee Park in Dunbar will host the final round of this fall’s glow league. The glow round is scheduled to start at 8pm.

Greens fees for players not participating in the glow league will be $10. In addition to a final round at Shawnee, the fee covers a player’s choice of Kanawha Valley Disc Golf Club shirt, hat, disc, or towel while supplies last. A optional ace fund buy-in will be $2.

Club members are encouraged to arrive at 3pm to help set up the temporary course. Once the course is installed at about 4pm, it will be open for casual play until the glow round starts.

Shawnee Park will undergo major changes soon, and it is not likely that disc golf will return to the park in the foreseeable future. Don’t miss out on this opportunity!
