Demonstrates the contempt that the city holds for any residents that don't have a country club membership somewhere. The parks are trashy and little thought is given to activities which otherwise would have great utilization (e.g., disc golf) C'mon Chicago, we can be better!!

A course is better then no course- keep it up local club- The layout is a bit wonky- Hope you continue to make this a permanent course. Could be great

To my knowledge, I believe they are trying to put in a permanent course and not the temporary one I played today. The course I played had a good variety of holes and all are short. Some parts of the park look well taken care of, the other part especially in the wooded section near the main strip had lots of trash laying around.
