The CSUMB Disc Golf Club formed again for the new academic year. Two weeks ago
they
elected officers for the years as well as their club advisor (myself) and coach
(Merele
Witvoet). Both Stancil Johnson and Merle teach "HPWE 141 - Disc Golf," a one-
unit class
that actually helps to fulfill a general education requirement.
The club meets on Fridays at noon at the Black Box Cabaret, building 81.

The talk this semester is in addition to a spring tournament (the CSUMB Otter
Open) that
we would like to hold a fall tournament as well. Instead of PDGA pros competing,
the hope
is to attract full-time enrolled students from colleges and universities in
California. None
of us have heard of such a tournament, except on the East Coast, so the hope is
to
eventually attract any number of universities along the entire West Coast to our
campus,
which to our knowledge is the only one in California with two 18-hole course on
its
property.
We will call it the "West College Open at CSU Monterey Bay" and hopefully we'll
find a date
in late October or early November. We've already received interest from UC Santa
Cruz, San
Jose State, and Santa Clara. We're going to contact Cal Poly SLO, San Francisco
State,
Stanford, and UC Berkeley. We'd also like to get a lot of students from the
local junior
colleges as well as four-year schools, so if you're intersted, drop us a line at
discgolf@... and bookmark this site for all current information.
