park, disc golf course
The Golf Island Disc Park, located in Magic Lake Estates on North Pender Island, BC, features 27 holes. The front nine holes have the original tone poles while the middle and back nines have chain baskets, installed in 2004. The Pender Islands disc golf course winds its way over and around a rocky hill just to the north of Magic Lake. The location of the course, with its many trees and bumpy landscape, make for an exciting game and a wonderful walk in the woods.
The Golf Island Disc Park was first 'roughed out' in 1980 by Alex Fraser, Dave Watson and Doug Keating. The second nine began in 1984 and by 1987 the initial course was completed, although improvements continue to this day. In 1985 the BC Provincial Disc Golf Tournament was held on Pender and in 2005 the Provincials returned to the Golf Island Disc Park. In 1985 30 players from BC and Washington competed. In 2005 over 100 discers competed. Tournaments on Pender attract players from BC, Alberta, Washington, Oregon, California and beyond.
