Baxter Springs adds a nine hole disc golf course to Kiwanis Park

The city of Baxter Springs is unveiling a new sport in one of its parks. Today the city finished installing a disc golf course inside Kiwanis Park. The nine hole course cost the city five thousand dollars. The Baxter Disc Golf Club approached the city back in April about installing a course to get more people involved in the sport. “I’m hoping to see a lot of people out here enjoying it. There’s people that come down here for practice and walking. But I think you can do more than that. Once people play it they’ll see and get more population out here enjoying the outdoors. And then in the long run, I would like to see a tournament,” said Charles Rector, President Of Baxter Disc Golf Club.
