ALMOST ALL MAINTENANCE FOR OUR COURSES ARE PROVIDED FOR BY CLUB MEMBERS. LARGE WORK PARTIES ARE TYPICALLY HELD PRIOR TO TOURNAMENT EVENTS, BUT DAY-TO-DAY LABOR BY SMALLER GROUPS OF INDIVIDUALS REPRESENT A SIGNIFICANT PORTION OF THE WORK AS WELL. CLUB MEMBERS LOCK AND UNLOCK THE MAIN GATE FOR FT. STEILACOOM DISC GOLF COURSE. A TOTAL OF 1,645 VOLUNTEER MAN-HOURS WERE ORCHESTRATED BY THE CLUB IN 2021.

IN 2021, THE CLUB BEGAN NEGOTIATIONS WITH THE STATE OWNERSHIP OF FT STEILACOOM DGC FOR A NEW LEASE. THIS PROCESS CONTINUED INTO 2022. THE CLUB ALSO WAS IN REGULAR NEGOTIATIONS WITH THE PIERCE COUNTY PARK SYSTEM TO KEEP RIVERSIDE DISC GOLF PARK OPEN AS THERE HAVE BEEN CONCERNS REGARDING FLOOD PLAIN ISSUES THERE.
