This year I have chosen to make the donation of $1000 to the Fredericton Disc Golf Club of Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada. The club president, Steve Seabrook, has embarked on a project to not only grow disc golf in the region but bring the game to thousands of students from the local schools. I was a young boy when I found the sport and feel fortunate that I did. If the sport that we love and adore is going to continue into the future we need young people to get interested in playing. The following statement is from Steve regarding this project;
“Hi Nate, again thank you so much! Everyone involved with Fredericton Disc Golf is really excited to have the resources for our Disc Golf in the Schools project. Our goal is to provide the necessary portable baskets, discs, lesson plans and support to allow our Phys Ed teachers the opportunity to teach disc golf. This donation provided by you and Keen Footwear will allow us to drive the sport and literally bring disc golf to every student in Fredericton. The sport of disc golf will have a solid foundation that will allow disc golf to grow and be a positive influence for our youth.” – Steve Seabrook PDGA# 20242
The donation will go toward purchasing three baskets and 100 discs for the students to use and learn with. The equipment will be rotated to a new school every two weeks and will be used for years to come. We are going to partner with DGA and Discraft to help us provide equipment for this project.
I would like to thank Keen Footwear for giving me this incredible opportunity to help, Steve, the students, and the disc golf club of Fredericton.
If you are interested in helping fund this project you can simply purchase a 2014 Team Keen disc for a $20 donation, and 100% of the proceeds will go to help Steve and his crew. We have four Discraft discs to choose from; (Challenger, Buzzz, Meteor, Nuke) in different colors and weights.
Thank you in advance for your support in helping the future of Disc Golf!
We also have discsleft from previous year left, even thought the donation has been made we still to get them all sold!
