Proceeds benefit CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) of the Continental Divide. According to their website, “CASA of the Continental Divide guides volunteer advocates who ensure a child’s safety, best interest and well-being are at the forefront of legal proceedings.”
The nonprofit serves local children in Colorado’s 5th Judicial District, which includes Clear Creek, Eagle, Lake, and Summit Counties.
More information on the organization is available at mtnCASA.org.
All are welcome to participate. Those 18 and younger will need to sign a waiver. Snacks and water will be provided alongside giveaways and prizes for participants; however, discs will not be provided, so players should bring their own equipment.
Registration costs $25 per player. Participants can take it easy by playing recreationally or participate in an optional tournament.
The optional tournament is open to all and features two person teams or doubles. Participating players can grab a score card at registration.
Registration for the event is available on UDisc.com.
