Local residents took to Commerical Street Saturday afternoon and evening to celebrate the return of the Glass Blown Open with good food, music and community. The Glass Blown Open Block Party took over the 800 and 900 blocks of Commercial with hundreds of hungry residents mingling with some of the best amateur disc golfers in the nation. GBO Tournament Director Jackie Morris says Dynamic Discs, and the local community, were ecstatic to have the GBO back after the 2019 event had to be canceled and the event was later named the Dynamic Discs Open. Unlike the DDO, the GBO this year was open only to amateur players. She tells KVOE News it is important to have an event that puts the amateurs back in the spotlight.
