hello F R O M K R IS T I
New things here, there, and everywhere! I love hearing all about new activities in the parks. It seems like once one park institute change, many others follow. That’s how pickleball took off, then dog parks, then RC tracks. It will be fun to see how many parks have disc golf over the next few years!
Alan Dorsman of Tropic Star RV Resort sets a disc to flight. Dorsman learned to play disc golf from his son.
Change is good for the soul, in my opinion. We always try to keep things changing at Welcome Home RGV. New divisions, new procedures, and new products are what keep us on our toes. The most recent change for us is the addition of our real estate division. I’m very excited! Providing our Winter and Converted Texan friends with quality events, products, and services is-- and always will be-our top priority at Welcome Home RGV. It will be fun to see what changes we all go through over the next few years!

“I
f you want to ruin a good walk, play disc golf!” That’s how Otis Cook of Tropic Star RV Resort in Pharr jokingly referred to the new activity offered at the resort. Recently, when the Activity Department was looking for new things to do at the park, Otis recommended disc golf. “We learned it back home and enjoyed it,” he said. ‘Back home’ is Lubbock for Otis and his wife, Lynn, who gathered a small group of neighbors at the park golf course on a particularly windy day.
The goal of disc golf is to land a disc in the elevated basket using the fewest number of throws.
