Cranbrook Testimonial
“The Disc Golf Course today is well used by the Disc Golf Association, students from the College of the Rockies, and Disc Golf has now become a popular sport amongst the community of all ages throughout most of the year. The best outcome - this parkland has gone from a high fire hazard in a residential area to a popular natural park used by the community to support healthy living.”
Diane Butz, Director Leisure Services, City of Cranbrook
