They actually listened and decided to scrap the building project entirely which is just wild to think about right now. I am staring at the trees out on the back 18 and honestly it feels like such a huge weight is finally off my shoulders because those fairways are safe …

I was looking at the graph and it is just crazy how much momentum we have right now because we are actually getting near that thousand mark. If everyone who already signed could get one person to jump in today we would hit that milestone before dinner and I think that would really get the attention of the city council folks.

I checked the count just now and saw we are almost at one hundred signatures which is just wild considering how this started in my head. We honestly need to get past that triple digit mark before I send this over to the park department people because they need to see that we really care about those trees and the course layout.

My husband and son just starting doing this together on the weekends. My husband has enjoyed this local disc golf course for many years. We are residents of La Mirada and do not want to see any changes to this activity that brings people to the outdoors.

This is one of the top courses in the world, to the fastest growing sport in the world... Surely there are other ways to monetize the area? This would be comparable to ripping out a hole on Pebble Beach golf course and not expecting negative outcomes.

The disc golf course is a gem, please do not take away any more land. I drive to La Mirada from Huntington Beach at least twice a month to play here. I spend money at local business while there. The world needs more green spaces not less.

This shouldn't even be an issue. If necessary, feel free to charge a small fee to play. I know maintenance isn't free and neither is land in So Cal. I would be willing to pay $2-3 per round it that's what it takes to save this track.

La Mirada is a destination because of its two beautiful courses. The loss of the back course and so many old trees to make room for a maintenance yard is unfathomable! When I saw the amount of healthy trees that are marked for destruction I was shocked!

Disc Golf is a sport that was created in Southern California. La Mirada is the second oldest course in existence only behind Oak Grove in Pasadena. La Mirada disc golf course is a piece of history and a central meeting place of all of Southern California disc golf.

Been playing at La Mirada since the baskets first went up. It is the Grandaddy of Disc Golf Courses. It should be preserved as a National Landmark.

This is an amazing disc golf course and provides wonderful outdoor recreation opportunities providing community and positive health benefits for so many people. It would be a sad day to loose any portion of this course.
