Camping With spring nearly done, if you haven't gone camping yet, it's time to enjoy the great outdoors. There are several spots locally and within the province to take living outside. If you go to http://www.prairieoutdoors.com/outdoors/camping_manitoba.asp you can find a list of all the provincial parks or go to the Flin Flon Tourist Bureau. Soccer news There will be an orientation held for parents at the Phantom Lake Soccer Field tomorrow from 10 to 11 a.m. There is no cost Ð just show up. If people would like more information or have questions, they can call the hotline at 687-8200. Disc Golf When you're trying to tell friends about disc golf, use the term 'frisbee golf' instead. Disc golf is a lot like traditional "ball" golf, except players use specially made plastic discs instead of balls and clubs, and throw them for 'par' at an above-ground target. There are different types of discs used for different purposes, much like golfers use different clubs. The object of the game is the same as golf. Most disc golf courses consist of 18 or 24 holes, and you'll find some nine-hole courses too. Holes are generally between 150 and 500 feet each. Information about the game was found on the DiscLife website at http://www.disclife.com/whatis.shtml.
