With the resent work that we just did to H16 it should play as a par 3 now.
Working on a new longer location for that hole also.
Mike Wilson March 29, 2015 at 5:42am
Got the trees cut down that we wanted to remove and also cleaned out the inside corner of H16. (WHICH SHOULD BE PLAYED AS A PAR 3 NOW) We are working on a new location for 16 that should make it a par 4 again once we finish it.
Also got fairways 4, 5, 8, 9, 10, 15, & 16 mowed.
Lastly got a walkout trail chipped and 3 or 4 teepad backfilled.
I think it was a productive day!!
Thanks Jason & Don!!
They want them to be close to trails so the Rangers don't have to "go looking" to check on them.

I'll be out at Wheatland at 8am this Saturday the 28th doing some work!
If you have the desire or any free time come on out and help! We will make it a PARTY!!
Want to get some limbs cut & cleared, 2 trees cut down, spread some bark chips, and just general/spring clean up done.
Bring tools, gloves, or anything you think will/would help get the job done.
Thanks & hope to see you Sat.!!
You know I am usually in for things like this and would be there this time, but already had out of town activity planned before this was first announced. Keep up good work

As of 3:45 all 18 baskets are good to go!!
Was able to get them fixed. Thank goodness nothing was broken.
that #3 was nasty! good work, thanks! i heard 2 extremely well endowd gentlemen got #4 sorted regardless of their inability to throw discs accurately.

If anyone knows a Michael Valente, someone in my group found his disc in the rough on hole #8 Saturday. It's a fuchsia Innova with "The Aaargh - 2011 Masters" custom stamped on it.

Well, someone vandalized a couple of baskets out at Wheatland. I was send pics about 5:30 today. If someone can give information that leads to a conviction, I'll reward you & you can remain anonymous.
I will make a real effort now to be there as close to 7 as possible before anymore people pass thru course. Do the pictures you got definetily show some kind of induced damage to them Mike
Hard to tell from pics. Possible chains detached, unknown if or what is broken.
Pictures I took this morning of baskets. One of us will have them fixed soon. http://www.discgolfscene.com/profile/17065/pictures/album_13356

Park is now open at 7AM, (actually has been for a week or two). Normally then change the park hours twice a year, which coincides with the changing of your clocks.
best dam time of day to knock some holes out! try it you'll love it!

Got a little bit of work done this afternoon out on the course. Cut some branches, bark chipped walkout trail between 1 & 2, back filled 2's tee pad, & made some room for a fir tree to hopefully flourish!
Lots of people out on this beautiful day & not just the locals. Talked to people from Corvallis, Albany, & PDX. All seemed to be enjoying themselves! Even cooler to see people from outside the area playing the course!
It was great talking to the out of area folks and hearing their comments. The trail looks great now and makes it stand out better, easier to follow. Tee pad great imrovement with backfill, lots of our courses still need that done. Lastly, I think with the TLC we gave that fir tree is going to allow it to grow healthier and more rapidly now. Good job on a good course
Thanks, all involved! I've only been out to play once since it's opened, but it was beautiful then, and I'm sure it looks even better now! Hope to get out there again soon.

February 29th at noon. I'm planning on working out at Wheatland DGC.
Just doing some general spring clean up around the course.
But I'm also hoping to get bark hips delivered this week. If they show up I'd also like to put chips around baskets and on trails.
If you'd like to come out and help that would be great!!
Bring gloves, loppers, saws, rakes, & whatever you think might be useful.

If anybody finds a blue custom dyed sidewinder on #5 (likely between the bushes at the end just before it opens up to the basket) will you please get it back to me by either texting the number on the rim or, if in the neighborhood, by dropping it off at Tiger Discs? Please? I messed up and apparently left it behind during doubles league. :/

How is the course playing these days? Is it swampy all over?
I was there about 2 weeks ago,and it was fine. No swamp at all. Champoeg on the other hand, yikes.
Was out there today and walked several holes to check on things. Place looks great!!
ya we played it and it was good just really windy that day
Mike Wilson January 18, 2015 at 8:55am
At the rate it's raining the main enter acne will be closed by Sunday morning. Back entrance is still open.
Mike Wilson January 16, 2015 at 7:03am
According to weather forecast: Sometime this weekend the main road in will flood again. So if you are going out you will need to use the back entrance.
Mike Wilson January 6, 2015 at 5:00am
Based on projections the main entrance into Wheatland should be accessible sometime Wednesday or Thursday at the latest.
The back access is open now also.
Mike Wilson January 4, 2015 at 6:34am
The back entrance to Wheatland is open!
No I haven't yet. But I know a few played today and I asked if they saw anything to get back to me. I have not heard from them.
Thanks again for update and hopefully shortly we can drive in front way again. Keep up your good efforts.
