Neighbors and community members are invited to learn about upcoming construction of an 18-hole disc golf course at Hockinson Meadows Community Park.

Public Works staff will host a virtual open house from 5 to 6:30 p.m., Wednesday, Feb. 23, via WebEx. Residents will learn about the project’s design, environmental impacts and construction timeline from county staff and project consultants. Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions and offer comments. To ask questions or make comments during the meeting, registration at clark.wa.gov/public-works/hockinson-meadows-community-park is required. Registrants will receive a confirmation email with a link to join the meeting. Those who do not register can listen in by dialing 1-408-418-9388 and entering meeting number 2484 249 9390 and password “Park,” when prompted. Callers using this method cannot use the chat function or be unmuted to submit verbal questions/comments.

Community members are encouraged to email questions to the project manager before the presentation. A recording of the meeting will be available on the project website within five business days.

The disc golf course will be constructed on a 40-acre parcel of park land that is separated from the existing developed park areas by an unnamed stream. To provide access to the course, a pedestrian bridge over the stream will be constructed as part of this project. The course has been designed to meet Professional Disc Golf Association standards and each hole will include a tee pad, a hole marker, a basket, and a bench. Trails throughout the course will consist of multiple surface types, connecting to the park’s existing trail system and adding 1.01 miles of trail to the park. A 225-square-foot shelter will also be constructed near the disc golf course and pedestrian bridge.
