History
The idea came for this course when the current disc golf sponsor took employment at the school and noticed the amole property owned by the school would be perfect for a course that fits with the outdoors centered nature of TES. After development of a club with temporary baskets, this course was designed by Graham Jennings of the River City Disc Golf Club, and Louis Ferro, the disc golf sponsor of Trinity Episcopal School. Both spent a great deal of personal time and effort, through lots of trial and error, to put together the best course possible with the limited space and resources available. Over the course of development several holes were planned and scrapped, and some were completely reworked. Since the planning, the River City Disc Golf Club was instrumental in securing permanent baskets, and further development work has been done by Louis Ferro when the opportunity arises, and TES students looking to complete Eagle Projects. Additionally, improvements have been made thanks to a youth development grant from PDGA, allowing for signage and other various materials. The course now serves the TES disc golf program for both a club and a team throughout the year.
