Mr. Dubay announced a new web page address for club at:
http://wdgc.dyndns.org. The old link no longer works.

Willamette Greenskeeper Report: Mr. Alpert reported that the Willamette
Workparty on Saturday went well. He also talked about spending time with
opponents that may have softened some of their opposition. The First
Alternative Co-op has donated printed maps and scorecards like at the Adair
course with a box. He was able to get the box mounted on the kiosk after the
work party.

Mr. Alpert said he had yet to figure out watering schedule for the new
trees. So far, spring seems too be taking care of the schedule. He said he's
been okayed to drive the city's watering truck as the season gets dryer. He
reported that the Service berries, which get up to 15 feet tall, don't need
watering.

He said we gave out 12 of the $7 coupons. People were generally supportive
of that concept. Mr. Alpert said he will try to get in kudos for work party
volunteers through a posted notice at the Willamette kiosk. He noted Mr.
Pittman took out another pile of gravel and most of the materials had been
spread.

He said he would plan another round of wood chipping when the parks
department was ready. More chips could be coming soon. He will announce a
follow-up work party.

Mr. Alpert invited club members to a bowling night. Friday night on March
14. He said he had reserved several lanes for the event which will begin at
6 p.m. He said he will send out an e-mail reminder.

Adair Greenskeeper Report: The No. 3 tee sign has been repaired. It was
suggested he want to use screws driven into the pole to further secure the
sign. He said he may hold a workparty when he gets time. He wants to get out
on hole 10 and remove blackberries among other priorities. Mr. Kaser said he
was not sure of a possible date. He reported that over the winter more small
trees have been pushed over on holes 2, 4, 7, 8, especially through the
woods. It was suggested that the notice board at hole No. 1 include signage
about course etiquette and behavior.

Handicap Report: President Sexton summarized Mr. Storr's e-mail that the
event has been generating about $5 a week in club funds. He said he is
considering a March 23 end  of winter series handicap with special prizes.
When evening light permits, he will go to a Monday-Thursday format similar
to last year's schedule and timing. He will continue the summer schedule
through July 4 up through the last weekend before Willamette Open.

Doubles Report: Mr. Banner and Mr. Gibson reported generally good attendance
and that they were planning to move doubles to Willamette the 30th to avoid
a conflict with the upcoming Oregon Pro Invitational.

Mr. Banner has proposed offering Closest to the pin (C.T.P.) prizes at
doubles to increase attendance as the summer progresses. There was some
discussion whether to need club or mulligan funds to pay for that. Greg
suggested it might be better to do offer the C.T.P.s as a random reward
rather than having it become a regular offering. They would not to offered
when turnout drops below a certain number.

Mr. Pittman said he can handle it out of stock. He also argued for periodic
C.T.P.s and not a regular offering. He suggested them for turnouts of over
20. Mr. Banner and Mr. Gibson could hold a supply of discs for the CTP.
Plans were to experiment with the CTP's for larger turnouts their
discretion.

Mr. N. Sexton said he had raised $300 for lunch funds at the end of March.
Much of was raised at the just concluded Mulligan Madness. Members commented
it was a fun format. Two other events are planned. There will be a private
lunch table for Mulligan Madness participants at Oregon Pro Invitational.

The Doubles bracket is half full with 22 spots remaining open. Mr. N. Sexton
said divisions included Pro, Pro Masters, Advanced, Advanced Women, and
Intermediate men's and women's.

Oregon Pro Invitational has about 20 players registered with a field of
about 60 players set as a limit. People from Washington and Montana are
coming. High profile local players include Dave Feldberg and Avery Jenkins,
who are coming as doubles partners. It will be fun, he said. Entrants have
the option to take prizes instead of money to maintain their amateur status.
He said he hopes to have discs available for sale at the event which might
be covered out of available club stock and orders around the time of the
event.

President's Report: Mr. Sexton said he's still working on Chapter bylaws
which will have a formal process for applicants who wish to put on a
tournament. He explained it was being added so not just anybody could take
over the courses and jeopardize established events. He said the club may
wish to consider asking promoters and organizers them to do pitch in with a
work party to help maintain Adair and Willamette Parks.

Mr. Johnson volunteered to figure out price for players pack as he did for
the Oregon Pro Invitational last year.

Disc Tzar Report: Mr. Pittman reported on the status of disc supplies. He's
said the January inventory included 188 discs. The club bought 140 discs for
Festivus, and sold  55 as cash sales, cashed out an additional 76 in scrip
redemption, and gave away 82 in players packs. One, he reported, came up
missing after the event.  Mr. Johnson noted that some had possibly been
stolen the previous year. Other discs were awarded as thank you's. As of the
club meeting, he estimated the current club inventory as 113.

Mr. Pittman also reported that the course at Waterloo is open. Some holes
have debris. The fairways have been mostly cleared out thanks to workparty
support and Kirk McAllister's tractor and brush cutter. There is still water
in play on the course, he said. But all holes can be played unless rains
increase.

Waterloo should be easier to navigate because tone poles have been added to
mark the tee boxes, members reported.

Casey Lohrman reported that the Cascades Gateway course in Salem has had
concrete poured for 9 of its 18 holes. Five of the tees have been moved back
with one moved forward for safety concerns. They have added about 250 feet
to the course length. Brushed the concrete and added a crease in the middle
of each. Their workparty drew five volunteers on a Friday, which he
considered a reasonably good turnout.

President's Report: Mr. and Mrs. Sexton planted 25 natives trees in an area
between holes No. 2 and 3. He reported they had lost one as of last weekend.
Native grasses will be planted in the near future.

It was noted that the Oregon Pro Invitational will play the order of holes
different from the current layout and Mr. N. Sexton said he may need some
signage to direct participants around the new plantings.

President Sexton said he has submitted an application for Benton County's
new Adopt a Park program. It will formalize our current relationship with
Adair County Park. He said the county hopes to get other groups to join as
well.

On the Willamette Parks planting he said he didn't know what the trees
Willamette Parks provided had cost. He noted the club had been asked to make
a matching donation. He said he had incurred some cost in purchasing
supplies to protect the trees after parks couldn't come you with the stakes
to guard the new trees. He said he spent just shy of $72 dollars for stakes
and that fencing materials cost another $70.

President Sexton asked members to approve reimbursing him for the cost of
these materials. He said they will talk with the city about making a
donation toward cost of trees. He said he wants to avoid the club being
viewed as "cash cow" by Parks, especially since we can't sell in the park
without a $70 permit every three months. We need long-term relationship
spelled out. He said he's been trying to press Parks into completing a
formal agreement, spelling out various responsibilities and agreements.
Current Director Julie Conway is leaving Corvallis Parks to take a position
in Reno. The city's current Recreation Director, Karen Emery, the current
Recreation director and acting Parks Director, may be in line for the
position. He said she may also be a possible friend to disc golf.

John W. Ross
