A STORY FROM OUR AGENCY:
The Lincoln Parks Foundation has been a longtime supporter of disc golf and the Lincoln Flying Disc Club. Through their grassroots work, collaboration with Lincoln Parks & Recreation and strong working relationship with LPF, disc golf has grown exponentially in Lincoln and with support from LPF and private donors the club has installed on city property both a beginner-level 9-hole course and a championship-level 18-hole course, which after only two years has been rated as the #1 course in Nebraska and the #88 course in the world. The relationship between LFDC and LPF is often touted by LPRD as the model for cooperation.
