Frisbee club to hold work day
GCSU’s Bobcat Frisbee Club will host a workday on Sat. Feb. 16, at Myrtle Ridge Disc Golf Course starting at 10 a.m.
The workday will consist of clearing vegetation for individual holes on the course.
Clippers and other tools are provided but everyone is encouraged to bring his or her own tools to make sure there are enough for everyone. Workers should wear durable clothing and bring gloves and boots if possible.
Lunch will be provided for all volunteers, and discs will be on sale to raise money for the Bobcat Frisbee Club. Workers will also be eligible for prizes and other giveaways.
At 2 p.m., everyone will be invited to participate in a disc golf tournament on the completed holes, with additional
prizes for top contestants.
“We’d like you to come out and participate in Frisbee events on
Georgia College’s campus because it will make you happy,” said Doug
Oetter, faculty advisor to the Bobcat Frisbee Club.
Myrtle Ridge is an 18-hole disc golf course under construction on the West Campus of GCSU. Begun in 2007, the course is challenging yet fair, with mostly tight forest and shrub obstacles and moderate elevation changes.
The course is located near the intramural fields at West Campus.
The Bobcat Frisbee Club at GCSU promotes disc sports such as disc golf and ultimate.
The purpose of the club is to bring together those who wish to indulge in ultimate, disc golf or freestyle, and provide instruction, coordination, and development of flying disc-related activities.
