FDGA Membership Mtg & Board Elections Wednesday 3 March 2021, 645pm
Hello Disc Golf World!

FDGA has decided to formally organize and get official non-profit 501c3 status in order to better grow disc golf in the interior of Alaska. To that end we're going to hold a Board Member Election over Zoom on Wednesday 3 March at 6:45 pm. In order to become a FDGA club member, you must be a resident of FNSB and pay $25 membership dues by cash or check to FDGA. Kate, Matt, and Juan are taking payment. Your dues this year will get you a club bag tag and club towel, make you eligible to run for a seat on the Board, and make you eligible to vote for the Board Members and on future FDGA club issues (we're seeking 7 board members - 4 officers and 3 members at large, positions will be determined by elected board at their first meeting).

For more information check out Matt's info video on the FDGA Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pg/FairbanksDGA/posts/

Meier Lake Classic participants,



We are very excited about seeing everyone at Meier Lake in less than two weeks! It is hard to believe that the event is so close.



You will be part of history. The largest PDGA event in Alaska history was the 7th Annual King of the Hill event in 2017 which had 85 competitors. The Meier Lake Classic currently has 117 players signed up to play making it the largest sanctioned disc golf event in Alaska history!



I have attached a copy of the course map. The course has two tees on every hole (except for #17 which has one tee on a dock). The course has a white basket and a blue basket on each hole. The white basket is shorter than the blue basket on each hole. The only OB on the course is the lake and roads and beyond. Roads and beyond will only come into play on holes 17 & 18.



Layouts used during the week:

Wednesday Random Draw Doubles: Everyone will play the short tees to the white baskets

Thursday Random Draw Doubles: Everyone will play the long tees to the blue baskets

Battle Under the Midnight Sun (Friday): Everyone will play the short tees to the blue baskets

Meier Lake Classic First Round (Saturday): All Open and Advanced divisions will play the long tees to the blue baskets. All Intermediate, Recreational, and Junior divisions will play the short tees to the blue baskets.

Meier Lake Classic Second Round (Sunday): All Open and Advanced divisions will play the long tees to the white baskets. All Intermediate, Recreational, and Junior divisions will play the short tees to the white baskets.

Anchorage Info: Weekly leagues in Anchorage are: Random Dubs on Wednesdays at Kincaid, Saturday singles at rotating courses, and a singles league at Hilltop Ski Area on Thursdays. I think there is an event coming up in Girdwood before the Fairbanks weekend too. Look up Lou Dogg (Louie Orozco) here on the 'scene for Anchorage event & league info, he'll hook you up.

If you have a day or two in Anchorage to play courses Kincaid Park and Hilltop Ski Area are not to be missed. Kincaid is a great course with 18 pro and am tees, a variety of holes and rolling elevation changes with defined fairways, and almost a sure thing to see moose at the park. Hilltop is a hybrid mountain course 18 with lots of elevation and wide open groomed fairways, and million dollar views. Greens Fees are $5 a day at Hilltop, and its well worth it. "Dine @ Nine"service offers pizza delivered to hole 9/10 at the top of the Hill for lunch/dinner options.
