Bergman Park Disc Golf Course Map<\/p><\/div>\n

A new disc golf<\/strong> course is officially open at Bergman Park<\/strong> in the City of Jamestown.<\/p>\n

The course currently has 12 holes, with an additional 6 to make a full 18-hole course expected to open in Spring of 2023.<\/p>\n

City officials say the course utilizes many of the underused, open areas of the park, as well as some of the wooded areas around Bergman Park. City officials say use of the course is free of charge.<\/p>\n

City Comptroller John Sellstrom<\/strong> said the $5,620 project was funded using Neighborhood Target Area Infrastructure monies as part of the Community Development Block Grant<\/strong> program. This funded the baskets for all 18-holes.<\/p>\n

The City, in partnership with Twin Tiers Disc Golf<\/strong>, have applied for funding from the Ralph C. Wilson Jr. Foundation<\/strong> to go toward purchasing discs and portable baskets for the Summer Playground program<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

A free Disc Golf Youth Camp is also being planned for Tuesday, August 30 at Bergman Park. The camp will give kids ages 7 to 13 an introduction to the sport of disc golf. No experience is necessary. It will be taught using the Educational Disc Golf Experience (EDGE) curriculum.<\/p>\n

The free program is being made possible by the Ralph C. Wilson Jr Legacy Funds administered by the Community Foundation for Greater Buffalo<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
