June 2022
Our June Business Spotlight is NorthStar Graphics. NorthStar Graphics was founded in 2001 and has had the same goal since they opened,

“To provide the finest custom printed apparel for
schools, businesses and organizations.”
In 2021 they added a disc golf pro shop to their store front. The
name is Outta Bounds Disc Golf. Here you can find all your disc golf needs including, discs and related equipment as well as custom tags and awards for disc golf clubs and tournaments. And of course, custom disc golf apparel.
For those interested in getting involved in disc golf, there are a couple local clubs. Durand Disc Golf Club, Forest City Flight Club, Freeport Disc Golf Club and Rockford Disc Golf Club all put on tournaments locally.
Pecatonica will also have a course very soon; it should have baskets installed by mid-June.
