The ribbon-cutting ceremony for the Central Lincoln Ford Institute Leadership Program disc golf course project was held on December 5. This event marked completion of the Wilder Disc Golf Course, the only 18-hole disc golf course on the Oregon Coast between Coos Bay and Astoria. Creation of the disc golf course was chosen from a wide field of potential projects as part of the Ford Institute Leadership Program. Class participants, volunteers, sponsors, and partnerships all made this project possible. Click here to read more in the Newport News Times.

This past weekend we delivered the Ford Institute Leadership Program in Baker County, Wild Rivers Coast, Sandy-Government Camp, East Linn, and Douglas/Josephine. Here are a few photos of Douglas/Josephine participants working on their class project selection and a look at the stormy weather on the way there!

We will be delivering the Ford Institute Leadership Program in Baker County, Wild Rivers Coast, Sandy-Government Camp, East Linn, and Douglas/Josephine today and tomorrow. Have a great weekend everyone!
