Madeline Martin 0:00
My name is Madeline Martin. I am from Lexington, North Carolina, from a very small area. And I am going to jump in and tell you all about my story. Let's hear it. Because it's crazy. Okay, so I have two siblings. I have a brother and a sister. We grew up very normal, very, you know, everything was... We just were living, you know, everything was fine. And then when we were probably, my dad was trying to find something that like we could do as a family group, like bowling or something like that, that we could do all together and like, you know, a lifetime sport, if you will, like something like that. So when my brother was probably, it's probably like 2015, my dad decided to get into disc golf. So I don't know if you know what that is, but it's... No, tell me.
Madeline Martin 0:50
Yeah, so it's basically like, you know, ultimate frisbee or something like that. It's like just a disc and you throw it into baskets. That's kind of unnecessary for the story. But where we... are in lexington it's kind of a very big thing around where we are it's not a big thing but it's a growing thing so everybody's kind of getting into it and everybody was just trying to spread, you know, it was just like something that you could do with your kids and adults. And like, it was totally like normal for kids and adults to do it all together. And like, you know, and you could go out and bring your kids and your friend could bring their kids. And it was just like a fun thing that everybody could play together.
Madeline Martin 1:32
And it wasn't like the kids had to do it separate from the adults. A good family activity. Yeah. It was just like a, like bowling or like, you know, like an activity like that. So we live on a lot of property too, where we live. So my dad was like, well, you know, we kind of got into it. My brother loved it. He immediately took a liking to it. He started doing tournaments, the whole thing. And we kind of had like a little community of disc golfers where we lived. So everybody kind of, you know, it was just like, you call up your friend and we'll go play disc golf or whatever. So my dad decided on the property that we live on to kind of create like a mini little course. And it was just like really just for our family and like our close friends lived like two roads over.
Madeline Martin 2:16
So we were like, this is great. Like we can all play and then they can just come over and we can just like have a little, you know, just like a little hangout basically. A hangout where you don't have to do nothing. Like it's like fun, like, you know. So, and it's free and like, you know, like why not? So it was like, it was really fun.

How did the narrator meet the family friend, Dave?

Madeline Martin 2:33
And I was still pretty young, but when it started to kind of take off and so we had MFDG, Martin Family Disc Golf. That's what that stands for because I'm going to be saying that a lot. But MFDG kind of started taking off. My dad created a Facebook page and we kind of, Just, I don't know what happened. Like, it just kind of took off. And everybody around us just, we expanded the course. Like, we got nicer baskets. And so, it was, like, so popular.
Unknown 3:04
So, everybody started coming to your house or your property to play the disc golf.
Madeline Martin 3:09
Yes. And so, my dad, like, organized. Like, we did all kinds of events. Like, we had, like, fundraisers. Like, I did my senior project was, like, a fundraiser event. for like a food pantry and stuff like that. But I had that opportunity to do it through the disc golf scene. That's awesome. Because they were so, and everybody in that community was so giving. And they would just, you know, if they saw something was important to you or somebody, you know, in the, like they would pour into it. And like, you know, and it was really great. It was really great. And I didn't really start getting into it until, like I didn't step into the disc. I never played. like actually, like my brother did, like my brother was very competitive and really started going into like the whole tournament scene.
Madeline Martin 3:56
I did not do that. I played like school sports in high school. So I was really focused on that. But then I, as I, so like I said, I did my senior project was like something through the disc golf scene.
