So 2008 may be the year of the Rat in China, but in Vermont its the year of the Disc. Over the past winter disc golf afficianados from across the state have been scheming and planning. There are many details to cover and those are located on a variety of new and updated web pages on this site, but below is a summary of the highlights and changes:

– The brand new Green Mountain Points Series – see the left sidebar for links to the details. This state-wide point series open to all GMDGC members will involve 7 tournaments all across the state of Vermont.

– VT Rep to the USDGC – This year we are greatly expanding the process used to select the VT rep to the USDGC. The selection will be based on a series of events (same events as the GMPS) and we hope this format encourages more participants and more competition in the selection process. Details are on the GMPS page.
