2010 Membership Renewal Reminder

Have you renewed or joined Stumptown Disc Golf for 2010

Membership in Stumptown Disc Golf only costs you $10 per year. So far this year over 100 of you have renewed or joined. However, that leaves over 200 members that have not renewed and another 100 friends of Stumptown Disc Golf that are on this mailing list, but haven't joined the club. If everyone paid their 2010 dues we would have over $4,000 from membership fees to promote disc golf in the Portland metro area.

Membership List: Check the membership list on the web site to verify that your membership is current.

New for 2010: Stumptown Disc Golf has just received word that the 2010 Rose City Open will be a sanctioned Rose Festival event. This means that the tournament will be listed as an event in all the official Rose Festival publications. We'll also be listed on the Rose Festival website, have a banner displayed at the Rose Festival booth at the Waterfront Village, and have a personal liaison from the Foundation's board of directors assigned to the tournament.

We have also been working with the Portland Parks Department to (finally) put the finishing touches on Pier Park, including tee signs, a welcome kiosk and a donation box at the park. We'll be looking for tee sign sponsors so if you know of a business in the St. Johns area, or you personally are interested in sponsoring a hole at Pier Park, let me know.

The Slosh Series has sold out all three events so far, planning is underway for the Beaver State Fling, new courses are in the works, and much more is in the works for this year. Please consider supporting the efforts of the club. All members will receive a membership card which is good for the club discount at Next Adventure.

P.S. For those of you that haven't received your 2010 membership card please be patient. We have been handing them out at club events. We'll be mailing a batch the first week of March, but hope to save the postage and associated costs by handing out as many as we can in person before that time.
