Re: Upcoming WDGC Meeting - Do you have any agenda items to include for discussion?

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) was part of the stewart pond course and they have a recreation area out on the South Fork Alsea. They worked with the cycle community to put in some MTB trails there, so who knows what they might be interested in.
Logging Companies: The local motorcycle club has an interesting agreement with Starker Forests that allows them to maintain a set of trails on Flat mountain. This said, when a unit comes up for harvest, the trail gets nuked until they can re-establish it. This isn’t as easy with a disc golf course.

Does anyone have connections to local logging companies? In addition to Richard's excellent ideas for pursuing city and county land, we should perhaps also consider private land for a new course ala Newport's Wilder.
We could put together a presentation/prospectus for the logging companies. It might be helpful to get feedback from the company out in Newport to see what they think about the partnership and ideas for how to make it more attractive. I'd like to know the legal framework behind their permit system.
It's a good time to talk up positive PR to the logging companies. We could frame a disc golf course as an excellent showcase for selective harvest and multi-use benefits.
