Why We Play: The Seth Burton Legacy
Sixteen years ago, a dedicated community of West Virginia disc golfers came together to honor the life and spirit of Seth Burton. Hosted each year at Morris Park by the Fairmont Flyers Disc Golf Club, the Seth Burton Memorial has grown from a grassroots gathering into one of the mid-Atlantic's premier A-Tier disc golf championships.
SBM, Inc. is an official 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Every dollar raised supports course improvements, championship maintenance, and youth disc golf clinics throughout the state of West Virginia.
“Orange Crush is a new favorite course and a hidden gem. Morris Park delivers an unforgettable test.”
