10:00am is the ribbon cutting and course presentation.
There will be disc golf demonstrations every hour on the hour.
We will have contests and prizes through the day.

The course will be open to play so come and try the 9-hole course.
We will have a prize for the best round of the day.

The first 100 people receive a free disc.
There will be mini-discs for kids 8 and under.
Additional discs will be available for sale.

Disc golf is a very simple game where players throw discs from a tee box toward a hole or basket. The goal is to get the disc in the basket in as few throws as possible. Anyone can play. The course is going to be called “Shaker City Disc Golf Course.“ Shaker City has been a nickname of Benito for years. It is for anyone and is free. Kids, youth, adult, and seniors can play this sport. Come and learn a new sport and have fun as a family.

Disc golf is a recreational activity that is free to play. All you need is a Frisbee to get started. Winnipeg, Neepawa and Yorkton have courses and now Benito will too.
