SVDGC Newsletter November 2007
Dear Discoids,
It’s that time of year to renew and elect. The Annual Meeting is scheduled for Saturday, December 15th at 9AM at the world headquarters of the Club, 3880 S. Bascom Avenue #115, San Jose, CA, 95124. Nominations for a position on the Board of Directors will be taken right up to the time of the meeting.
If you are unable to attend the Meeting, a proxy is enclosed so that your vote can be counted. Please send in your renewal together with your proxy if you can not be there in person.
We’re introducing a new feature to your membership. In addition to the Club mini, each year we’ll issue a Club Bag Tag that can be used for competitive “challenges” with your fellow disc golfers at Hellyer/LaRaza. The bag tags are numbered sequentially starting at number 1 and go through number 100.
Bag tags are to be displayed and challenges are not to be denied! Enjoy the art work of our resident artist, Jef Wind of Bad Monkey Designs. Bag tags will be sent out to new and renewing members at the start of the year.
Speaking of the new year, we’ve scheduled the long awaited and somewhat delayed 1st Annual Coyote Creek Classic on January 5th & 6th. There will be Singles on Saturday and Doubles on Sunday for both Open and Amateurs. We’ll bring the LaRaza course out of storage to kick off the new year, and unfortunately, put it back in storage at the conclusion of the tournament on Sunday. This event is Pre-Registration only!!!! We want to beat the clock to get done before sundown, so, you must register and pay by Friday, January 4th for Singles and by Saturday, January 5th for Doubles!!!! There will be no same day registration and the gates at LaRaza will open at 7:15 AM.

It’s been a banner year for disc golf in the Silicon Valley with the opening of our seasonal course at Parque de LaRaza. Thanks again to our monetary and labor sponsors for making it a reality. Wait till you see how we’re going to lengthen the course for next year!
In the meantime, we’re having a workday on Saturday, December 1st from 10AM to 2 PM. Help us keep Hellyer clean and beautiful and bring some work gloves and a friend. Pizza will be served at noon!
See you at the course.
