Work Days Scheduled

04/17/08 - There are two MADC work days scheduled to help get the courses ready for the 2008 summer season.

On Saturday the 19th from 9:00 AM - Noon We'll be emptying the Adopt-A-Hole cans at Hiestand Park and making sure they have bags. We will also be walking the course removing trash along the fairways. If you have some bring some work gloves please bring them along.

A workday has also been scheduled at Elver on Sunday April 27 from 10:00 - 1:00 . The majority of this workday will be removing the branches off the fairways and piling them either in a central location so they can be chipped or off in the woods to decompose.

There will also be a need to clean up trash along the edges of the fairways and on the sledding hill.

Anybody that is able to make it to either of these work days your help will be appreciated. Please help the Madison Area Disc Club KEEP THE COURSES CLEAN.
