Celebration to feature new disk golf course at park

The fourth of July marks the debut of the Bulldog Putting Greens, a new disk golf course at the Haxtun Park. The course is the final product of work by Trey Bivins, who has been instrumental in the design and install stages.

Disk golf is a game in which a frisbee is thrown into a series of metal baskets situated on an outdoor course. The object is to complete the course using the fewest possible throws. It is played using similar rules to golf.

The first tee of the Bulldog Putting Greens is near the playground area and all the baskets are numbered. Players bring their own frisbees to play.

The course debut is a part of a July 4th Party in the Park event sponsored by the Haxtun Lions Club. Bivins will be on site on the 4th to assist players and help answer questions. The event will also feature drawings for starter supply prizes.
