Sorry for the new thread- I did not find a more appropriate place for this:

Friday March 30th
The Wright Way Foundation fundraising party!

The party starts about 2pm at Rolls Ranch where we will play a safari 9-hole disc golf course!!

After that there will be live music, including your very own Smitti and Jon with Silenced, Junkyard Mary, and an acoustic treat will start the evening before we rock out. An outdoor stage in the hill country will be the setting for a great night where
**ALL PROCEEDS WILL GO TO THE WRIGHT WAY FOUNDATION!!**
Several poker tables will be set up for those that want to play cards, or play darts, horseshoes, swim, or hang out in the hot tub!!

Hot dogs galore, keg beer and a full margarita machine will knock out the refreshments!

Plan on coming and plan on having a great time!

More details to follow!

Directions will be posted later, but to give an idea Rolls Ranch is in north Leander- close to Bagdad and 2243.

Please come out and support the WWF! Everything will go to Ricky!!

Go North on 183 or 183a all the way to 2243 in Leander. Take a left on 2243 to Bagdad (the first light past the new HEB). Turn right on Bagdad ( CR 278) for about 3 miles (I’ll find out). Turn right on Spivey Rd. Take the first right on Rolls Rd. Keep left on Rolls thru the gate and you are there! Look for parking signs.

Special Request: Please keep an eye out for two stolen baskets, they were stolen from the Weatherford DGC on Saturday, June 20th around 10pm.
The descriptions are as follows, both are DGA Mach III's. The first one is the practice basket with the DGA logo on the nuber plate and various stickers on the pole inside the chain assembly. The second is Hole 18's basket with the number 18 in bright red on the number plate.

[demrick]

If any Austin area golfers find themselves in DFW over the Fourth of July, I would like to extend an invite to the July 4th Fundraiser at Weatherford DGC. There should be close to $1000.00 in prizes given away as we try to raise money to replace two stolen baskets.

The Weatherford July 4th Fundraiser will start at 9am, sign ups at 8am. $20.00 entry and close to $1000.00 in prizes for CTP's on every hole. Maximum CTP's are two per person so at least nine different winners. All money from the entries will go directly to replace the two stolen baskets. Please join us for this special event.

I would also like to thank Gordon and the Waterloo Club for the sponsorship.

SEARIGHT DISC GOLF COURSE IS OFFICIALLY OPEN!!!!!

WOOHOO!!!

I received this just a little while ago from SADA...


No, this is not an early April Fool's joke - as of an hour ago, all baskets were assembled and installed.

SEARIGHT DISC GOLF COURSE IS OFFICIALLY OPEN!!!!!

I want to thank John Paul from the City and the volunteers that took time out on their Wednesday workday to get these baskets up in record time today: Mike "Meteor Mike" Schulgen, Bert Benavides, Miguel Guerrero, Jeremy "Smoke" Sanchez, Kenny G, and I'm sure a handful of others. Thanks guys!

In addition, I must thank the numerous volunteers that have come out all the workdays to make this happen, with notable thanks to Scott Allen, James Gonzales, Aaron Stair, Del Stair, and Tom Peirce for coming out for all the workdays, assisting with the necessary equipment and tools, and working hand in hand with City workers to make the workdays smooth-sailing and productive.

They certainly are not alone - there are many, many more people that gave their sweat and blood for this project - you all know who you are and you are oh-so appreciated!

Lastly, thanks to Mike Olse, Gene Faulk, Rosie Weaver, and the other City and APF team members that worked closely with SADA throughout the renovations. Thanks to Waterloo and DiscNation for continuing to support the project financially, but just as important, for inspiring more folks to come out for the workdays.

SADA will continue to work with the City and the Austin Parks Foundation to maintain the park and help with repairs. The club is working on holding a benefit tournament in the next month or so, so please keep that in mind so you can help us continue to pay this forward, for this park and all the other disc golf parks in the City.

Thank you everyone!!!!! See you on the course!

Waterloo Disc Golf Club is looking for just a few volunteers to teach some kids about disc golf this Sunday, November 11th, at Austin Ridge Bible Church. A group is doing a fun race for kids and raising money for Austin Ronald McDonald House (and we LOOOOVE that charity). They are including some extra activities for the kids, including disc golf – how cool is that!

We need some folks to be there to teach the kids and run some disc golf stuff for them. The club will have some discs for the kids to use, but it wouldn’t hurt if you could bring some too. But the main thing is just to have someone there to help.

It would just be for a few hours – getting there around 12:00 – 12:30 pm, and probably leaving around 3:00 – 3:30 pm.

If you can help, please get in touch with Zac Tolbert (ztolbs@gmail.com) or Troy Herman (waterloodgc@Gmail.com) . The information about the day is pasted below.

And hey… feel free to bring your kids down to participate (and spread the word to people you know), it sounds like a lot of fun!!!

Thanks,
Waterloo Disc Golf Club

Well, bummer! Just after we get the word out about this event, it has postponed. The organizing group had some issues come up and sent us the following note:

I am disappointed to inform you, the event has been postponed. The kids were really excited about the whole day but we encountered a problem. Hopefully we will be able to find a date and reschedule.
Thanks for your offer to help. I will let you know if it is going to happen.

Now that the time change is upon us, there are two evenings of glow minis at Zilker (these are not Club events):

Mike Schulgen will be running glow random draw doubles on Thursdays. On Facebook’s Fellow Disc Golfers page was a posting from Mike about it: Starting Thursday, November 8th, at Zilker Park... Random Draw Night Doubles... we will be lighting up all the baskets for a great season in the park... $5-entry, $5-acepot ... if no ace is hit, we will CTP for it after each round :-) .. doubles will be every Thursday starting at dark...


Justin Davis will be running glow singles on Mondays. On Facebook’s Fellow Disc Golfers page were some comments from Justin about it: Continuation of the Monday Working People’s mini; It will be last call at sunset.


And as a bonus to get the glow season off to a great start… The Waterloo Club will be having a CTP for a Disc Nation gift certificate tomorrow at the Thursday random draw doubles, and a CTP for a Dick’s Sporting Goods gift certificate next week at the Monday singles. We had these ready to give away at our Fall League finale last week, but we got caught up in awards and partying and never did the CTP contest (DOH!). Mike and Justin both worked hard running our leagues this year so we are going to take the certificates to their minis and give them away.

Now it’s time to light up your discs, thumb your nose at the dark, and play disc golf all night!

Thanks,
Waterloo Disc Golf Club

The total donation from the 35th Waterloo Disc Golf Classic to Austin Ronald McDonald House (RMH) came to $4,500 in cash, $200 worth of food and household goods, and 15 ‘gallon jugs’ full of can tabs. We haven’t gotten an updated figure lately, but a few years ago RMH said that each jug of can tabs equated to a family’s 1-night stay at the House. Many of the jugs came from SADA, way to go South Side!

Thank you very much to all the sponsors, players, and staff who made this great tournament and this wonderful donation possible!

Our fundraising grand totals now from all the Waterloo Disc Golf Classic Tournaments since 1999 are:

Donated to Austin Ronald McDonald House
$80,000 in cash
$1,000 worth of food, household goods, and toys
102 ‘gallon jugs’ full of can tabs

Donated to Austin Parks Foundation
$1,500 in cash

Raised and Spent on Disc Golf Projects here in the Austin Area
$12,500 in cash

More info about the tournament, results, etc can be found in the 35th Waterloo thread under the PDGA Tournament section.
