7th Whispering Falls Freeze

7th Whispering Falls Freeze: "Last year Coach and I went up to Pennsylvania to play in this BYOP charity doubles tourney. Since Coach has said he’s taking six months off to rest/heal his shoulder I reached out to El Tie Dye to be my partner. El Tie Dye agreed. Then a week later Coach contacts me looking to put the band back together. I inquired about his timetable (he’d taken six weeks off before he played in Maryland vs. Virginia) and he muttered something about feeling good. Since I already had a partner Coach went looking on the message board like a lounge lizard during happy hour."

West Kingston resident T.M. Dyer first began organizing the event in 1990, and it has occurred in multiple locations since its inception. After working with the town of Charlestown to create and install a disc golf course in Ninigret Park — first as a nine-hole course that became 18 by 2010 — the event has become a wintry tradition for avid disc golfers."
