also any report on Rick's meeting with PDGA executive director Brian Grahm at Pro Worlds? very interested about there discussion! Also a thought.... maybe use sponsorship $ to bring up a "real" course designer such John Houck to come tweek our courses....or design new course at hilltop or other sites. Profesionally designed course would go a long way to further disc golf in Alaska. Just a thought to talk about
Minutes posted
Andrew and I are meeting this weekend to go over and tweak the template he has created. Then the beta link will be posted and open for suggestions for a week. A final tweaking then we will switch to the new web page.
Any reports on Rick's process bidding for Pro Worlds will have to come from Hilltop since it is not an ADGA thing. I will pass along your expressed interest.
I agree our courses could use some tweaking. Jeremy and I are working on a to do list for PC which will include installing alternate pin sleeves.

I agree our courses could use some tweaking. Jeremy and I are working on a to do list for PC which will include installing alternate pin sleeves. As far as a professional designer, great idea and even better if we had the money. Although, I think with a few of our members and a productive design process we can do a solid job designing new local courses. Another way to further outside interest of DG in AK would be creating fly by video of our top courses and post online.

Suggestions are always welcome from ADGA members. With that, implementing suggestions can only go as far as the amount of volunteer involvement. The ADGA is running on a shoe string volunteer core as it is. I will be focusing on organizing all the to dos for the coming season regarding PC and Kincaid. Hopefully, Louie will be able to have an update for us on municipal discussion of a new course on the east side of town. Once, the to dos are organized they will be posted. We will need proactive volunteering from our membership to finish PC and start much needed maintenance at Kincaid. Our success will be determined by membership involvement and dedication to implementing and finishing our projects.
Sorry im not a "real course designer " I do the best I can
again, you talk about volunteers, but I have constantly made myself available. Ever here the term "beggars can't be choosers" if you want volunteers, let volunteers volunteers instead of try and manipulate the people "you want" into volunteering. Again, just an opinion from an always available volunteer who is constantly overlooked.
