Hey all! Since I had a hard time getting all the relevant site info I needed to attend my first game at the NWop site I wanted to throw a one-stop-shop togther for new folks to get the directions they need to this site with minimal fuss.

Location: NWop site or Santa Cruz Delta

Directions: Head West on I-10 untill you reach Avra Valley Road. Turn left at the end of the off ramp and follow Avra Valley Rd for a mile or two. Watch for a bridge. Once you cross the bridge immediatly turn left ino the dirt parking lot. Park your vehcile their and hike down the dirt road to the rally points.

On 4.25.09 members of TAC were approached by a citizen who demanded we leave NWOpsite as it was now a park of the city of marana. We conceded and broke up the game. Investigation of the matter shows the following:

The South end of NWopsite is posted as a park. You can find more information on the marana.com website under Rock Disc Golf. It is now within Marana city limits and thus off limits to us.

The investigation also shows that the north end of the field (from the plateau section north) is still unincorporated land and thus still usable.

As such, it is required that all players playing at this AO in the future not go any further south then the plateau area. It is recommended you give it a wide birth since a disc golf hole is located on the plateau and players in the area may accidentally engage no players. Its is STRONGLY recommended that players print out the following information so they have documents showing the land we are playing on is not part of the park and is unincorporated should they be approached by disc golf players or LEOs. Please, always be respectful of LEOs as a bad rap for us could make finding other county AOs difficult. Thank you for your time.
