Churchill Park FUNdraisers Raise FUNds!
Over the last few months, the TCDGA has held (and is still holding) a series of FUNdraiser tournaments for a new Course Installation at Churchill Park in Liberty Township, a suburb of Youngstown.
To date, 3 tournaments have been held on location at Churchill Park on a set up through the park using portable baskets. Through these tournaments, we have seen more than 40 people play this for-fun layout, featuring some holes planned for permanent installation, and raised more than 400.00 for the new course.
The Associates have secured our first basket, to be able to have a practice hole set up for showcasing to local businesses for hole sponsorships and will have it installed as soon as the weather allows for it.
The next FUNdraiser tournament will be held on Sunday, February 26 at Churchill Park. Registration will be from 10:00am-12:00pm and Tee Off will be at 12:00 as registration closes. Entry is only 10.00 to help install this course, lunch is ALWAYS free at these FUNdraisers and EVERYONE walks away with something from first place all the way to 100th place. At these FUNdraisers, we have always had 50/50 raffles and CTP (1 throw included with entry, each extra throw is 1.00) to give more chances to win!
Come on out and join us for some FUN Disc Golf, FREE Lunch and YOUR prizes!

New Spin on Golf Game Opens at Moquito Lake
On Sunday, October 16, about a dozen disc golf die hards braved the weather to attend the official grand opening ceremony for the new, Squirrel Run Disc Golf Course at Mosquito Lake State Park in Cortland, OH. There was a 2-shot CTP followed by a round of best-shot doubles and some lunch afterward.
TV-27, WKBN was on scene with cameras rolling to catch the action and had this to report:
“Some golf lovers braved the cold and rain today to celebrate the opening of the a new disc golf course at Mosquito Lake State Park in Cortland.
The new twelve-hole Squirrel Run course was designed by a local man, and even features a hole that’s across the lake.
“It just adds another recreational opportunity for the public. It adds a new disc golf course to the area, as well as to the state park,” said Doug Lyons, Northeast District Park Manager.
The course is open to the public and free to use. You do have to provide your own discs. There are discs available to rent or purchase from the park office.
The disc golf course is open year-round.”

Spontaneous Summer Glow Throw
Last night, June 3, we gathered for a spontaneous summer glow round at Young’s Run in Warren. Entry was a gently used disc and food was on a bring your own basis.
The first round, set in W.U.S.S. format, kicked off at 6:30 and the last card was in sometime just before 7:45, giving us plenty of time to cool down, get a fire going, put some tunes on and wait for the sun to set.
Once the stars were out, cards were formed and off we went, into the woods. No one lost any discs and fun was had by all.
Of the 14 competitors, here are the results of both day and night rounds with a total score.
1. Paul 24, 24. 48
