A department head told Beaver County commissioners at their July 8 work session that Brush Creek Park will host events tied to the World Disc Golf Championship and has drawn national attention.
"It had 433 participants signed up," the department head said, thanking Stan's crew for how the park looks and noting that the course the county built is attracting players from across the region. Officials said the current layout is a beginner, three-hole course and that there is interest among players and staff in developing a full-size course to accommodate more advanced competitors.
The county discussed the potential tourism and community benefits of the event and said staff are prepared to manage the expected large crowd and family attendance. No formal funding or construction decision was announced during the work session.
Officials encouraged continued maintenance and coordination with event organizers to ensure the park remains a positive representation for Beaver County during the tournament.
