Not sure about Alexandria but if you look up the directory on Professional Disc Golf Association and put in your old zip code it will tell you if the course is still active. And by all means please come out and play a round or two on the new course.

We tried it!
We played for the first time a couple weeks ago. The three of us just bought regular frisbees (all the same) to give it a try. IT was so much fun (although we need to bring something with us to retrieve lost discs from trees!).
We plan to go again. Using the regular frisbees was fine, but we were consistently 2-3 over par on every basket. So, I looked on ebay and found starter sets with three discs (driver, mid range, putter) for about $25. I bought a set for me, and one for my husband.
I just hesitate to spread the word because I don't want it to get trashed.
I'd recommend wearing some good bug spray around your ankles. My husband got a pretty bad case of chiggars.
There was a guy dozing near one of the baskets, but he was harmless. Didn't appear homeless or anything, just someone enjoying a morning snooze in a quiet spot.
Try using Google Earth to see the park. You'll see where all the Flat Tops used to be. Kinda neat. Great way to use an area that was once pretty spooky.

Hey if anyone is interested I am holding the official Grand Opening Oct 20th (Tuesday not by choice) at 4p.m. There will be refreshments and a few people selling discs. Please come out and show your support. The course is located at the back of the John G. Lancaster park on the left hand side. If you have any questions you can contact me or by going to Professional Disc Golf Association and looking at the course directory.
Thanks Will
