By JASON NEHMER/For The Herald — The Oakridge Disc Golf Club is at it again! The second annual “Veteran for Vets” tournament is this Saturday, January 15th, at the Old Mill Disc Golf Course from 9 AM to 4 PM. We are back and better than ever. Our new amateur friendly layout is sure to provide plenty of excitement for not only the players, but for spectators as well. Following in the footsteps of the Dynamic Trilogy Challenge, Veterans for Vets is a disc golf event designed to meet three goals. First, it gives disc golfers a chance to play in an organized event during the winter months. Second, it provides an awesome environment for a disc golfer without any tournament experience to play in an organized event. Finally, it provides an opportunity for a local disc golf community to raise money that gets returned to that same community to organizations tasked with serving veterans. So, come on out and cheer on the participants and be a part of the excitement for this worthwhile, charitable cause.
The Old Mill Disc Golf Course is a regulation championship course located on the Northern portion of the Oakridge Industrial Park, East of Oakridge on Salmon Creek Road off Highway 58.
