Trading clubs for frisbees: Disc golf club uncovered

Driving along South Avenue, New Canaan residents are used to the familiar sightings of Saxe middle school, the YMCA, and the Waveny Park entrance. However, few notice the entrance to the disc golf course in Waveny, one of the many courses established in the Fairfield county area.

On October 12, the New Canaan Rams will be hosting the Norwalk Bears in their fifth game of the season, but this is no ordinary game. Each team is asking fans to wear orange in support of the Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation (MMRF), which aims to raise funds and awareness in an attempt to combat Multiple Myeloma, a rare form of blood cancer.
