Disc golf course planned for Ottawa’s Kanza Park
Professional disc golfer Mark Martin helped Ottawa leaders design a nine hole disc golf course at Kanza Park. Rotary and local groups budgeted about five to six thousand dollars, with city and chambers funding the balance. The project aims to offer a cheap, fun activity for youths and potentially draw college students to the midtown park. Public plans call for a design within days and completion within a few months.

Bridge project OK'd and right of way progress set
The county accepted bids for a bridge project despite one rise in chemicals used for the work with Dow Chemical cited for price hikes. Swain noted most bids matched last year, with Tordon 22K and Remedy costs higher. Plans proceed to replace the Acorn School Bridge at John Brown and Iowa roads, with right‑of‑way legalities to be settled before bidding resumes in a week or two. Traffic will detour off John Brown Road during the summer.
