The course resides in the Beal Slough floodplain owned by the City of Lincoln and was constructed by the Lincoln Flying Disc Club (LFDC) through an agreement with the City. The non-profit club maintains the course and raises funds for improvements and maintenance through donations and suggested $5 daily and $75 annual fees.
