Ultimate Frisbee at Westgate Park

Sun, 22 Jan 2012 00:00:00 +0000

Ultimate Frisbee

Ultimate is a sport played with a 175 gram flying disc. The object of the game is to score points by passing the disc to a player in the opposing end zone, similar to an end zone in American football or rugby. Players may not run with the disc, and may only move one foot (pivot) while holding the disc.

While originally called ultimate frisbee, it is now officially called ultimate in many areas because Frisbee is registered in some areas as a trademark, albeit genericized, for the line of discs made by the Wham-O toy company. In 2008, there were 4.9 million Ultimate players in the US.

Time: 02:00 PM - 04:00 PM

Robert Trent Jones Golf Special - $20 on the 20th

Mon, 20 Feb 2012 00:00:00 +0000

What started as a concept to enhance the image of a state has turned out to be one of the most successful achievements in the golf industry.

In 1992 the first golf courses opened on the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail in Alabama. The vision of creating a golf trail came from Dr. David G. Bronner, the CEO of the Retirement Systems of Alabama. The golf course designs started with Robert Trent Jones after coming out of retirement and have continued with Roger Rulewich, Jones’ protégé. The original courses opened in 1992 and additional courses have been added over the years. In 2011, greens were replaced on several courses. Silver Lakes underwent a significant renovation after tornado damage in 2011. The Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail is on track to have its 10 millionth visitor in 2012.

$20 on 20th
On the 20th day of each month in 2012, enjoy a round of golf on the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail for $20. Reservations can be made within seven days of the desired date and are available through the local RTJ sites. Not valid at Ross Bridge or Lakewood Golf Club. Golf carts are not included in the price and play is based upon availability. Come play one of the RTJ courses like our very own Highland Oaks
