New amenities could be expanded | Letter to the editor

To the editor:

I am emailing about the post in the Bainbridge Island newspaper about the disc golf course being added to Battle Point Park.

Being a teenager on this Island I think I have a good perspective on the plan to build a course. Myself, I am all for it. I think it is great idea putting more activities on the Island for teens to use during free time or just wanting to get outside and run around.

Since I have recently moved to this Island, I have found there aren’t many activities for teens compared to where I lived in Minnesota. For me, a disc golf course would be a better idea and more productive compared to the pump track that was recently added to Battle Point Park.

To be honest, I think it was poorly built and not fun at all. I feel it is very small so it’s not very interesting to older riders and I feel if more time was put into it, more people would have been able to enjoy it.

I am looking forward to the first nine holes being added to the park and hope for nine more.
