I have $5000 for a stake in the Gran Canyon property ownership. Do we have 300 additional interested potential owners? Really, 11716 current members (of the 500,000 current players) and PDGA demographics suggest there are at least 10 times as many people out there than we need who could afford this small chunk of money to own a share of not only this course, but this property! SERIOUSLY!

Mission statement: Leave course as is, relatively undisturbed. Continue to maintain. Alternate pins and tees are options, but layout to remain essentially as is.


Gran Canyon Petition
�Help resurrect the Gran Canyon disc golf course in Brooksville, FL.!! Anyone who ever set foot upon the Gran Canyon disc golf course in Brooksville, Florida knows just how special this track truly was.


Posted on Homepage...
Located just 20 minutes from The Plantation Inn in Crystal River, Florida, home of the Players Cup (A PDGA Major event) the GCDGC event was one of the highlights of the Fabulous Florida disc golf tour, setting attendance records 3 years in a row. People have traveled from as far as Russia to play the course. Even though the GCDGC was dismantled exactly one year ago after being sold, I still get the occasional call from disc golfers wanting to play the course. Here is YOUR chance to play it again (or for the first time)

Hernando County is considering the acquisition of the Gran Canyon for recreational purposes. The primary push came from mountain bikers who would like to see this property made available as much as we would. Please follow the link below to sign the petition to insure that, in the event of their successful bid to acquire the property, disc golfers will have a voice in the development of the recreational facility. Let�s keep the dream alive!!

Anyone interested in the purchase of the GC property ($1.5M) for the purposes of disc golf should contact Gregg Hosfeld directly at 407-701-9058. Gregg has been assured by the current owner that the course has been relatively undisturbed.

i would consider it if there is some sort of business plan for it that makes sense. taxes and liability insurance are likely to be a decent chunk o' change each year. property management will cost as well.

my inlaws are getting ready to move to brooksville in the spring.

No doubt there will be logistics. But in this wired world, we could easily establish an LLC, enterprise, or non-profit organization, and all the bylaws, charter, mission statement, development goals, maintenance agreements, local presence, etc for the mere 300 investors of $5000. I'd imagine 75% of the investors would never step foot on the poprerty, or have any more say in it than an occasional vote on course of action.

I'm not even in need of a business plan that makes "sense". A $5000 stake, and equal ownership in that property is a better investment than many other I have made.

Your inlaws, or some other local investors, are all we need to be that presence and open the course up for more use. Open a shop, charge the typical round fee (same as when I played it), get waivers, etc, etc, etc. And work to steadily pay back the initial investment (maybe even with a proposed ROI), and then sell it off to an entity like a parks department or individual investor with the same interests in preserving the course and property.
