Dear Hellyers and Hellyettes,
Greetings! Tis the season for play at our green pastures in San Jose. With a little rain and before the “grass” turns into two feet high weeds, it’s time to enjoy the disc golf experience at Hellyer Park. And just in case you’d like to go beyond the realm of being a player-only type, we’re offering the opportunity for you to help out on our WORKDAY-SATURDAY, DECEMBER 31ST, 10AM TO 2 PM, WITH PIZZA AT NOON !!! We’re going to plant some trees and bushes, do some weed whacking, rebuild some of the rock walls, repair and rebuild some of the protective screens around the Toyon bushes, pick-up of wood debris and various other clean-up type projects on the course. Bring some work gloves and appropriate tools if you have them. Also, bring a friend!
Speaking of bringing it for a non-playing activity, how about being present at our ANNUAL MEETING, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 4TH, 2006, 9 AM. The meeting place is our world headquarters at 3880 S. Bascom Avenue, #115, San Jose, CA, 95124. And just in case you can’t be physically present for the meeting, enclosed you’ll find a PROXY statement. You give your vote, via the proxy statement, to someone who will be present at the Annual Meeting.
If you give your proxy (vote) to someone else before the Meeting and then you are able to make the Meeting, then you get your vote and the proxy is cancelled. Please FILL OUT the PROXY and RETURN it with your annual MEMBERSHIP DUES.
And we’ve had some good speakers and excellent attendance by Hellyerites at various Public Hearings and Public Meetings that have been held regarding the rework of the Master Plan for Coyote Creek. The Club, via its members present at these meetings, has publicly expressed a desire for the EXPANSION of the course to the PARQUE DE LA RAZA group picnic area, which is along the Coyote Creek right of way. There will be future Public Meetings and Hearings and the best way to keep informed for this and other non-playing activities is through our discussion group at Yahoo.com.
SCOTT VAN TYLE has been the MODERATOR for the Yahoo discussion group and deserves a big thanks for his time spent in opening and keeping this communication tool available so that we’re all informed on an up to the minute basis as to disc golf locally and globally. Many thanks are also in order for the effort by JEF WIND in handling the Club T-SHIRT PROJECT from artwork conception to delivering the final product for issuance to the members. Please let us know if you have not received your official Club T-Shirt. STEVE GANZ continues his work in progress for the CLUB WEBSITE at svdgc.org and we all say thank you for your expertise in displaying our e-message on the goodness of our game.
See you at the course!
