The Bat House is able to hold half a million bats since bats only use one-fourth of an inch of space. Bats are nature’s insect controller. Bat t-shirts now available at the Country Store in three colors.

DISC GOLF
Played by throwing plastic discs into metal catching devices, aka "baskets". Like traditional golf, the goal is to navigate from the tee to the basket in as few throws as possible. The Magnolia Disc Golf Course is beautifully wooded and relaxing, located behind the country store. The store has discs, maps, and scorecards. For more information on disc golf at the SOSMP, contact our course pro, Denny Ritner at 407-810-2769 or Email.

GEOCACHING is one of the newest and fastest growing sports/activities in the world. Small containers containing a log and sometimes trading objects are hidden around the world (but never underground), and their coordinates (latitude and longitude) recorded and published on the internet at www.geocaching.com “Geocachers” use their GPS units to find the location of the cache, sign the log, and trade for an object in the cache if they’d like.
