The club

We are starting to fade out on discgolfscene.com and consolidate everything to facebook (search under "High Desert Disc Golf Alliance") and our website hddga.com. We will still continue to use discgolfscene for leagues and tournaments, but if you want to be involved with event and club information, I would go to facebook or the website. Thanks!

We are holding a tag round at the fairgrounds this Saturday (22nd) at 10:00am. If you don't have a tag, come be a member ($25 annually) and get one. If you got one, come and defend it or get a better one!

Club Meeting

Thanks to all who came out to the club meeting last night. We had more than expected, but still had enough pizza! We got 4 new members last night and handed out bag tags for 2013. We gave away 6 discs and had a lot of fun.

I was voted in as the club president and I appreciate your trust in me. Bob Davies suggested afterward that it might be a good idea to have a Vice President and a Treasurer. A Vice President would be over sponsorship. Not going out and getting all the sponsorship, but coord ... more

I was voted in as the club president and I appreciate your trust in me. Bob Davies suggested afterward that it might be a good idea to have a Vice President and a Treasurer. A Vice President would be over sponsorship. Not going out and getting all the sponsorship, but coordinating our members to set up opportunities. Also, the club doesn't have a whole lot of need for a treasurer now, but will once we have an inventory.

If you would like to nominate yourself or someone else for these positions, please let us know. I am nominating Bob as Vice President.

Wanted to give an update on the development of High Desert. After hosting our initial events, the traveling league. HDDGA has decided to run in conjunction with the PVDGC up in Pocatello, a night tournament. It will be on the evening of October 27th. Since its in the evening, we will still be able to run league that morning. PVDGC has already obtained quite a bit of sponsorship and we will bring our Halloween stuff to the course. HDDGA has purchased 100 night flight disc lights from nightflightdiscgolf.com. Its only a $200 investment, but should give us some gain in return. I hope to see you all there. We can coordinate rides if needed.

Also, we have our official logo in place thanks to Kirk at Great Basin Graphics. Our new members are Dan, Kirk (different Kirk), and Alan. Thanks for joining the club! Kirk and Alan develop real estate websites and are working on the club website hddga.org. We should have it up and functional by the end of the year.

We are going to hold our inaugural meeting on December 7th. The meeting will be at 6:30pm. The location is to be announced. Bring your families because the club is providing pizza and drinks. We will try not to bore everyone but we will be going over club funds, events, leagues, course proposals, etc.. I would expect to have an hour and a half meeting. After the meeting, we will have a free drawing to give away some plastic.

Our disc inventory will have to be fronted by club members. I expect the bulk of the purchase will be on me. I don't expect to purchase an inventory until early 2013. I think we will start with Innova and Discraft and then expand from there. If there are discs you want to be ordered, send me some suggestions in the talk section of the club.

I'm excited! Things are going great!

Welcome New Members!!

Our first HDDGA event was held last night! Thanks to Mook, Steve, Andy, Brandon, and Kevin for joining the club and being our first members ever. $25 to join. We will hold our first meeting in December and that when we will distribute bag tags for 2013. We will also go through our charter, have some food, give away some discs, go over the 2013 calendar and elect officials. As of right now, we are looking to have a President and a Treasurer. Thanks!

Cache Valley Traveling League Starts Tonight

Just a reminder that our fall/winter/spring league starts tonight at 6:00pm. This week its at Von Baer Park, just like normal, but a half an hour earlier. The cost is now $7 instead of $6. There is a league page created already that has the schedule of which course we play each week. We will talk about the club tonight too.

Brigham City Clash This Weekend

Today is the last day to pre-register for the Brigham City Clash although there will be registration available the day of the event from 7:30am - 9:00am. It should be a nice and easy day in the park! We will have 6 mini holes set up that are part of the mini pot, but not part of your regular score. Mini pot is $5 and the winner will get a Innova DisCatcher Sport Basket!! CTP's are extra and ace pot is $2. All holes are at John Adams Park!! All registrants get a GSS Stamped DX Aviars. I think we still have Teebirds and Rocs left too.

Welcome To The Club

The new club will arrive in 2013. We are based out of Cache Valley. We are called an alliance because we work hand in hand with all disc golf organizations to further the progress and professionalism of disc golf in Utah and the Northwest. We will be sponsoring bag tags, running leagues, running tournaments, and selling merchandise. Look for our logo and website coming soon.
