Disc Golf On Local Radio Show

[bobosun]

Monday May 4th at about 8:30 p.m. There will be a radio spot about disc golf on the John Carney show. It is supposed to be about 20 minutes long. Hazelwood set this up as a promotion for the 30th anniversary this Sarturday.

If you have anything that might be interesting or funny that can be included in the program post it here.

I'm sure we'll get in the St. Louis Open, Ice Bowl, Origins, Courses, Top Local Players(Nilkko), Leagues, River City Flyers.

Wish Me Luck!!!!!!!!

I think the story that summed up disc golf in St. Louis for me was the flood. In '93 there were two courses, and the one in Creve Coeur was basically gutted by the '93 flood. Instead of letting this hold the sport back, people used it as a rallying point to push forward. Within a year of the flood Sioux Passage and JB were in the ground. A little more than two years after the flood we had gone from two local courses to seven. There were some key people in that effort like you, Ray, Jerry Bayse and Billy Downs who did a lot of that work and don't get a lot of credit. I'm sure I'm forgetting some other folks as well.

Anyway, it would have been really easy in '93 to throw up your hands and go back to White Birch. Instead, the Club accepted the challenge and laid the foundations for the growth of the sport all across the area. I think that was pretty much the defining moment in the story of disc golf in St. Louis.

It looks like Bob forgot to mention that! I'm pretty sure it is KMOX-1120 AM.

Well I caught most of the show & it went pretty well. Perhaps except the fact that our web site here was mentioned & a LOT OF PEOPLE including Bob himself can't even get on it right now!!
