Date Published
Emporia, Kansas is fast becoming the go-to destination for disc golf enthusiasts across the United States. This charming Midwestern town has been steadily building its reputation as a hub for the sport, thanks to the dedication of local businesses and passionate individuals. Dynamic Discs' owner Jeremy Rusco has been instrumental in driving growth through top-tier events, exceptional customer service, and strong community relationships.
The Glass Blown Open (GBO), now in its second year, is a prime example of Emporia's commitment to disc golf. This week-long event will bring together some of the world's best players for two days of intense competition on two premier courses. The tournament has also become an integral part of the town's social calendar, with a street festival scheduled for Saturday night.
Betty James and her team at the Emporia Convention and Visitors Bureau have been instrumental in integrating disc golf into the community's fabric. Their efforts have not only elevated the GBO but also made it a celebration of the sport within the city itself.
