The opponents of the disc golf course are a bunch of egotistical, self righteous, more time on their hands than should be allowed, controlling, busy-bodies that I have ever encountered in my 55 year old life.

I have never played disc golf nor do I know anyone personally who has. But, Bidwell park is a park, for Christ's sake, not some designated wilderness area.

If Annie Bidwell knew of the gangs, drugs, meek and non-existent after school programs that exist today, I am sure she would accept any activities that promoted any type of wholesome and family activities that might occur under her watch.

She, and I would say to open our park to disc golf, hang gliding, remote control car tracks, shooting ranges, kite flying, and any activity one can imagine. It will, in the end, preserve our more natural areas, promote healthy activities, and make our community more complete and desirable.

If you anti disc golfers want something meaningful to do, consider the destruction of the Amazon at a Bidwell Park size every day or the slaughter of people in Darfur and make your lives amount to something other than being a cog in the wheels of other people's fun.
