Merced Disc Golf Club
is proud to present the
MERCED MELTDOWN
This is a CenCAL Series Event
This will be a one-day, two-round C-Tier event.

This event alongside the El Capitan Classic & The Widowmaker at Fahrens Park, will be raising funds to install TEE PADS for the back nine holes as well as other upgrades as funds allow for the Fahrens Disc Golf Park in Merced, California. Fahrens Park has been in operation for over 20 years and has been a technical and beautiful place to play and visit. It has been the responsibility of the MCDGC in partnership with the City of Merced to keep up the DG park and the club intends to create some exciting improvements for everyone to experience!

So please come out and help celebrate our city, rejuvenate our park, help out our club, score some amazing swag, and help grow the sport!

Water stations will be located at multiple locations across the course along with shade structures on exposed holes on the back 9.

Following the final round, there will be a Raffle for some amazing prizes, a Ring of Fire Throw-down, and a CTP shootout before the awards: if the Ace Pot is not hit the ace pot will be split and 50% will go to the end of the tournament CTP Shootout/ the other 50% will be donated to the club for Tee Pads!

Trophies will be given for First, Second, and Third Place for each division if applicable.

Pro Payout through Paypal.

AM Payout for AM40, AM50, AM60, AM1, and AM2 will be through OTB Discs and sent VIA email a few days after the event.
