I lost a Yellow/Green Freedom right of pin hole #7 last Sunday.

I've been going here off and on for the last year or two. After I got back into regularly playing. I enjoy the course as a good primer and practice weekly. Been meeting up with a friend and doing this course every saturday at 7-7:15am while the weather is still good.

I found a ring by hole 10's tee, looks like it might be a men's wedding band. Let me know if you lost it.

Lost an old champion cobra off the right of hole 3, left of hole 11. I loved that disc, had it for years. It's red and has a black cobra dyed on it. If you find it please let me know. I'll let you pick from my stash as a reward.

Hey I just moved to the area and I love this course. I'm trying to organize some sort of lunch league at Canby. Start of pretty relaxed and if there is enough interest we could make it more formal. If you're interested or know of a group that plays Eco regularly please let me know. Thanks!

Hey Peoples,

The City of Canby just notified me that Eco Park DGC in Canby, Oregon will be closed next Monday, the 3rd of February. The course will be closed the entire day for some work that is taking place out there. It will re-open the following morning, February the 4th.

They asked me to spread the word, and apologize for any inconvenience.

Thanks,
Ryan Gwillim

Good course, leaves are a little heavy on the ground right now. Good idea to have a spotter on a few holes, I lost a red beast on hole 9 along the drop off, name and # are on it, thanks.

Played there today... so many broken glass bottles and so many beer cans. Has such potential as a great course but if people don't take care of it, we'll lose it.

DiscGolfers,

I just got an email from the Parks Dept regarding alcohol consumption on the course. I asked them if they could mow the field holes as it was getting overgrown. They replied that they started to mow, but after the fifth glass beer bottle they had to stop. PLEASE refrain from taking alcohol out to the course. This is a city park and as such, alcohol is prohibited. Also, please make sure anything you take out there with you gets packed out as well. I want the parks dept to li ... more

Thanks!

@Beast; Sounds good, lemme know next time you're headed up there. Hole 11 would be a pretty awesome ace, I don't think anyone's hit that one yet.

THE "BEAST" OF THE WOODS    May 19, 2012 at 6:32am

Played North Eco Park today on my way home from portland. Good work on layout. Long walk to first tee but that's ok, builds anticipation. I came sooooooo close to an ACE on # 11 with a terminator:) Ryan I will take a rain check on that tour offer ok? Would like to play a round with you and chat GreensKeeper to GreensKeeper:)

Ryan Gwillim    May 15, 2012 at 3:58am

Beast,

The parking lot for Eco Park is where to park. The disc golf course in 1/3 mile north of that on the Logging Road (paved walking trail) You walk up it until you pass the waste water plant on the right, then the course is on the right, can't miss hole 1! We're going to get the signage up soon for the parking lot, we've been trying to do the "heavy lifting" work first! :)

Once you're to hole one you should be home free as the temporary signage on the course is pretty good, and the walkouts are also labeled. PM me if you want a tour!

Is there signage posted to help out of towners find this course? I drove down territorial on my way home from work last week and had no idea where to go from there.

Ryan Gwillim    May 15, 2012 at 2:45am

Discers:
PLEASE abide by the "No Alcohol" rule on the course! The Park Dept has already talked to me about this as people are leaving their beer cans and bottle all over the course. Please clean up after yourself, and if you see anyone else's trash, pick it up as well! We need to be good stewards of the opportunity we've been given!
Thanks a ton!

Disc Golfers;

Work Party Saturday! The weather is getting nicer and the underbrush is starting to fill in. We need to get those fairways finished before Spring is in full session! Here’s what’s on the agenda for Saturday:

- Assemble and install the three field holes (7, 8, 9)
- Install sleeves for practice basket and hole 12
- Continued clearing on hole 10 (current 7)
- Brush mowing on hole 12, as well as 5 ... more

If we get that done, I’ve got plenty more things for us. What I need is to know who can make it, and if you’re planning on bringing anyone with you. The more notice I can get, the better prepared with equipment etc. I’ll be. The forecast so far is rain, so dress appropriately and make sure to bring water and gloves (a snack isn’t a bad idea either).

Contact me at ryan {at} fireflydiscgolf.com if you have any questions. Work starts at 9:30 and we’ll likely work until about 4pm.

Cheers,
Ryan Gwillim

Feel free to head out and play the course but keep in mind that it is still UNDER CONSTRUCTION. I suggest holding off on reviewing the course until May when it's finished, please. 8 of the 12 baskets are currently installed and there are temporary tees and temp signage to guide you through. The course is designed with the beginner/intermediate golfer in mind, so all of the holes are very short, around the 220' to 280' range.

Feel free to head out and play the course but keep in mind that it is still UNDER CONSTRUCTION. I suggest holding off on reviewing the course until May when it's finished, please. 8 of the 12 baskets are currently installed and there are temporary tees and temp signage to guide you through. The course is designed with the beginner/intermediate golfer in mind, so all of the holes are very short, around the 220' to 280' range. However, the course is fairly technical with some dog legs and some really nice greens, so advanced golfers will hopefully still enjoy a round or two (I think is pretty fun!). All 12 holes, permanent tees, and signage will be installed and finished by May.

If you have any questions about the course, or want to help with the work, please contact me!
