Default Inviteing the media

I was wondering what everyone thought about inviting one of the local news stations to one of our local tournaments to get Disc Golf Houston in the local spot light and try to grow the sport in the city. I run into so many people that have never heard of the sport, or they see the baskets and have no idea what they are for.

I was thinking about the McGregor tournament in October because its in the heart of the city, and the media loves doing local stories like this. It might even jump start the city putting in more courses. Just a thought.

I got the idea because I was interviewed by the local paper at the Dunbar Tournament in Lake Jackson, and they really put Disc Golf in a good spotlight. Here is the article that was in the paper:
