It sustained major wind damage in last night's storms. Many trees are down, the shelter was destroyed, and even tee signs are mangled. There may be some upcoming opportunities to help with clean up, and we will let you know as soon as the Village of Marshall and/or the Rebel Disc Golf Club let us know. For your safety, though, please stay off the course right now.]]><![CDATA[Elver & Hiestand Opening Wednesday, May 1st]]>Tue, 30 Apr 2013 17:42:35 GMThttp://www.madcitydisc.org/1/post/2013/04/elver-hiestand-opening-wednesday-may-1st.htmlWe are looking for volunteers to help install the baskets at Elver and Hiestand tomorrow morning (Wed May 1st). Please meet in the Elver parking lot at 9 AM. If we have enough volunteers to split into two groups, one group may go to Hiestand right away. Otherwise, we will install Elver first and then move over to Hiestand. The more people show up, the faster and easier it will go, and the quicker we can all play. If you haven't gotten your City of Madison disc golf permits yet, don't wait any longer!

FYI, the disc golf course at Ripley Park in Cambridge is now open for the season, as well.]]><![CDATA[Vallarta - Ast DGC @ Token Creek Opening Today]]>Fri, 26 Apr 2013 15:19:16 GMThttp://www.madcitydisc.org/1/post/2013/04/vallarta-ast-dgc-token-creek-opening-today.htmlWe've received word that the Vallarta - Ast DGC at Token Creek County Park should be open by noon today (Friday, April 26th).

The club celebrates the traditional start of the local disc golf season with our annual Spring Kickoff.

Saturday, May 11th
Bird’s Ruins DGC, Langer Park in Marshall
See the flyer for event schedule

Please note that the location is different from recent years, when it has been held at Hiestand. There will be a lot of great local disc golf events this year, and we want to spread them out to different courses.

The Kickoff also serves as the beginning of our club’s membership year. The cost to join or renew is $15 ($10 for juniors under age 16). You will receive a bag tag for joining, which can be used all year long for the MCDG Bag Tag Challenge. The initial distribution of bag tags will be based on the results of the random-draw doubles round ($5 additional fee) played at the Kickoff. Anyone who joins at the Kickoff but does not play doubles, or joins anytime after the Kickoff, will receive the lowest numbered tag remaining. The rest of your membership fee allows the club to put on events and promote disc golf and other flying disc sports in the greater Madison area.

With your help, the club will continue to grow, allowing us to offer more events for members and the community at large.

Thanks for your patience as we update the new name and logo throughout our social media sites and web page. Keep using http://madcitydisc.org/ for now.

This includes Madison, Dane County, Maple Bluff, Marshall, and Cambridge. At this time, we are not aware of any firm dates to open those courses. They are all evaluating conditions, as we had a prolonged winter and recent heavy rains. We want to be the clearinghouse for information, so those agencies are not swamped with constant calls asking about the courses. We will post information, as we receive it, to the Course Openings / Closings page on this website.

Right now, courses in Stoughton, Prairie du Sac, Waterloo, Watertown, Baraboo, Beaver Dam, and Horicon are among those open for play.
