The county park's game: disc golf, water, and the tubing hill

1987–2026 · Ferrettie/Baugo Creek County Park, 57057 Ash Road

The town's second sporting ground is a county park, and its signature game is played with discs: Ferrettie/Baugo Creek County Park — opened to the public in 1987, grown to 214 acres, its ground and name carried whole in this build's Parks leg — holds an 18-hole disc golf course, open year-round with a pro shop in the park's gatehouse, that the disc golf record knows well: the course's community record counts more than 15,500 recorded rounds at a 4.1-of-5 rating. The water plays too: an accessible fishing pier on Lake Osceola — the lake the county dug as the park's water feature — and kayak rentals on Baugo Creek itself, down to Baugo Bay. In winter the park's sport turns to the hill the lake's excavation made: innertubing, when the snow allows. The park's address states its jurisdiction in the town's own numbering language: 57057 Ash Road is a five-digit address — county ground, in Penn Township, with an Osceola postmark — and the park is the county's, as its name says. Sports takes the games at this size; the ground, its naming for a former county commissioner, and its keeping belong to Parks.
