Prichard was incorporated as a town in Mobile County, Alabama, in 1925, after nearly 25 years of solid economic and population growth. Now home to a little less than 23,000 people, Prichard actually housed a much larger population during the 1960's. During the Second World War, this town became a bustling commercial city and continued to grow before experiencing a major population decrease in the 1970's onward. What do we have now? A well-balanced population with plenty of amenities and opportunities.

If you'd love to sink your teeth into a more rural lifestyle, visit the Chickasabogue Park at the northeast corner of Prichard for 1100 acres of fishing, hiking, biking, nature and fresh air. Set up a tent or bring down the RV for some not-so-old-fashioned camping, and wake up early to take out a canoe on the Mobile River Creek and fish for more than a dozen species, including bass, bluegill, crappie, catfish and pickerel. You can even spend a day fishing and bring your catch back home for a BBQ party with family and friends -- just like in the good old days.
Try the Disc Golf, It's All the Rage
Disc golf, you say? Indeed! In fact, this innovative sport is one of the most popular activities at Chickasabogue Park. How does it work? The grounds are pretty much the same as a normal golf course (if it had 27 holes), except that they are designed to challenge a Frisbee throw. Instead of beating a golf ball around this course, you try to toss various Frisbees down the course and eventually into a basket representing the "hole." Like traditional golf, different types of Frisbees are used to drive and "putt" towards the basket. And believe it or not, this is a professional sporting ground, sanctioned by the Professional Disc Golf Association (PDGA.) Feel like learning disc golf for yourself? Come out and meet the local teams and hobby players! Every Thursday, a local tournament is held for those who aren't exactly professionals, but throughout the year, professional tournaments are held right here too! In fact, disc golf competitors from many parts of the American southeast journey to Prichard solely to take part in a disc golf tournament. As for the locals, they are the game's biggest fans. Every Halloween, Prichard hosts the Halloween Howler, which not only features a community tournament of disc golf, but also includes festively-decorated "holes," a cookout and awards.
Boasting a small-town feel with big-league sports enthusiasts, this is a pretty cool place to call home. Drop by and check it out for yourself! Disc golf Frisbees are available for sale at the park office!
