Tournament Capital Open 2024 - Friday to Sunday, June 14-16, 2024

 

Hello all KDGC Members!

 

Here is a reminder that the Tournament Capital Open is happening again this June 2024 and that early registration is now open! Everyone who registers early gets a sweet and exclusive TCO G.O.A.T. Towel and lanyard! Register now on Discgolfscene and stay tuned in for open registration and for more announcements. 

 

If you are planning to play the TCO and you do not have your PDGA membership or renewed yet, you can use the KDGC affiliate code of 240QWAFF to get a discount on a yearly membership!

 

Did you know that last year's TCO had filmed coverage of FPO's final round and MPO's three rounds? You did not! Go check out Parked Pro's Youtube Channel to see the coverage! This show cases some of Canada's top talent on our home turf. 

 

Also, did you know Thomas Gilbert is making a re-appearance and that Scott Stockley is planning to come? Freakin' awesome!


 

Chilly Chains Challenges

 

Feb 10th, McArthur Island hosted the final chapter of the Chilly Chains Challenges. 52 players came out and competed over nine divisions and had a great day of competition. The chili lunch, donated by disc golf Mom Fran deVries, was a great way to keep warm between rounds. We just squeaked this one out before the return of winter! All four Chilly Chains events brought just over $2000 to the KDGC in funds raised and allowed players to compete and push their ratings through the winter months.

 

Tournament Director Elizabeth deVries is thankful for all the player support, especially to those nine people who played all four events, and excitement and is already planning other events and plotting next winter's Chilly Chains Chapters.

KDGC

One of our ongoing goals is to grow our clubs membership. Truthfully, everything we do is ONLY possible with a strong membership base. While it might not seem like a lot at $30 for membership, it goes further than most might think in making sure we have great courses and a healthly club. We grow only through you all sharing as the sport and community grows. Thank you for growing our club!
