Disc golf anyone?

Expect to hear something similar to that at Ann Arbor's Mary Beth Doyle Park soon as the city prepares to redesign the disc golf course there. City officials will hold a public meeting detailing the plans at 6:30 p.m. on Sept. 10 in the Cobblestone Farm Barn.

City planners want to reconfigure the 81-acre park's disc golf course, formerly Brown Park on the city's southeast side, by next spring. The redesign would impact most of the holes on the 18-hole course and help prevent erosion, which has been a problem there.

City workers hope to finish the planning early this fall and get to work before winter. The whole thing should be done by next spring. The course has been in the park, off Packard Road, since the mid 1990s.
