Subject: UPA's Strategic Planning for the Future of Ultimate - We need your
input!


Hello Ultimate Organizer's-
As the UPA is working through a strategic planning process in order to assess
and improve our services to players and members, I thought I would pass this
along. We would really appreciate if you could take a few minutes to fill out a
survey that has been professionally designed to provide us with critical data to
moving forward as an organization in a direction that is in alignment with the
players' needs. It's a great opportunity to provide your input and to get
involved with the development of the future of Ultimate. It would also be great
if you gave your local players and members the opportunity to be involved by
sending them this link. We also ask that organizers consider posting an
announcement and the information on their local Ultimate website.

Here is a message you could include on your website if you would like to help
the UPA in hearing from your local community.

The Ultimate Players Association wants to hear how local league players feel
about the current state of the sport of Ultimate, how the UPA and other
organizers are responding, and what's important to them. Please take about 20
minutes to complete the survey<http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.asp?u=874582698103>
(or the direct link is
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.asp?u=874582698103<http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.a\
sp?u=874582698103>) and you'll be entered in a drawing for some very special
thank you gifts including a brand new iPod Nano, on of two copies of Ultimate:
The First Four Decades, or one of five copies of the 2004-2005 UPA College
Championships CSTV 3-DVD set.


Thanks for taking the time. We hope you will get involved. Let me know if you
have any questions.
