Pickleball can be played dur-ing open gym hours at the Adams County Ser-vice Complex free of charge! All necessary equipment is available. Call (260)724-5332 for details and open gym times.
Pickleball is a paddle sport which combines elements of badminton, tennis, and table tennis. It is played on a court the same size as a doubles badminton court. The net is similar to a tennis net, but is mounted two inches lower. The game is played with a hard paddle and a polymer smaller version of a wiffle ball. Pickleball is similar to tennis, but with a few differences. A Pickleball ball typically moves at one-third of the average speed of a tennis ball and the court is just under one-third of the total area of a tennis court.

Miscellaneous Disc Golf Disc Golf is played like traditional “ball” golf, but with flying discs (Frisbees and similar objects) instead of balls and
clubs. One point (Stroke) is counted each time the disc is thrown and when a penalty is incurred. The goal is to play
each hole in the fewest strokes possible. The player with the lowest total strokes for the entire course wins. The
Kekionga Disc Golf Course is free to all players! Simply provide your own throwing discs.
Miscellaneous
Tee Throws Each hole begins with a tee throw. Tee throws must be completed at or behind the designated tea markers
Lie The lie is the spot where the player’s previous throw has landed. Mark the lie with a mini disc or turn over the thrown disc, directly towards the hole or designated fairway. The player’s subsequent throw is made from directly behind the marked lie.
Throwing Order The player with the least amount of strokes on the previous hole is the first to tee off on the next hole. After teeing off, the player whose disc is farthest from the hole always throws first.
Fairway Throws Fairway throws must be made from directly behind the lie. A run-up and normal follow-through, after release, is allowed, unless the lie Is within 10 meters of the target. Any shot within 10 meters of the target requires that the player not move past the lie until the disc is at rest.
Dogleg (or Mandatory) A dogleg is one or more designated trees in the fairway that must be passed. Until the dogleg is passed the closet foot to the dogleg must be on the lie when the disc is released.
Completion of Hole A disc that comes to rest in the disc pole hole basket or chains constitutes successful completion of that hole.
Unplayable Lie Any disc that comes to rest above the ground is consid-ered an unplayable lie. The disc must be thrown from the lie on the ground, directly underneath he unplayable lie, relocated to avoid damage to the vegetation.
Out of Bounds If any area of out of bounds is visible between the disc and out of bounds line, then the disc is considered out of bounds. A throw that lands out of bounds, must be played from a point 3 feet in bounds from where the disc went out of bounds. Permanent water hazards and pub-lic roads are always out of bounds.
Penalties Recreational players will not be penalized for rule infractions. Other players will keep you honest.
Course Courtesy * Remain quite and avoid unnecessary movements while others are throwing. * Stand behind the player who is throwing until throw is complete * Remove disc from disc pole hole after completing the hole. * Help new players learn the rules * Allow faster groups to play through when possible * Pick up trash and put in proper receptacles * Do not alter the course (trees, bushes, etc.) in any way.
The Kekionga disc Golf
Course was constructed as
part of the Eagle Scout
project of Josh Porter. Josh
is a member of local Boy
Scout Troop 70. The Parks &
Recreation department would
like to thank Josh, The Porter
Foundation, and all of the
volunteers and family
members of troop 70 for
their hard work, dedication,
and financial contributions to
help make this highly popular
disc golf course available to
our community. Thank You!

One of Decatur’s most popular recreational activities, the River Greenway Trail meanders along the St. Mary’s River and through Decatur for nearly 4 miles. The pathway links 2 major parks and a Frisbee golf course, providing open space, recreational access and wildlife habitat in the community. While it is difficult to determine exactly how many people use the River Greenway Trail, there is no doubt that it is one of the most widely used amenities in Decatur for bikers, skaters, walkers and runners.
