New Year's Day Ultimate

This is the way to start the new year, and work off a bit of the hangover (if you are 21+ and partake in that sort of thing).

We will have a great afternoon of ultimate.  Start time to be officially announced later, but plan on something like 2pm at Mason.

December 18th - Field Change

Due to the bad condition of Jefferson Elementary's field, folks have proposed we change it up.

Here is the current plan:

There are 3 sites that are all within 1/2 mile or so.  So, first choice will be at Mason Middle school (N. 28th and Proctor).  It is turf, and likely scheduled with rugrats playing soccer.  So, if that is not available, head to Wilson (N. 11th and Orchard).  There are lots of fields there for football and soccer, and hopefully we can find a decent spot. 

Pickup is definitely "on" for the 18th.

December 18th and December 23rd

December 18th pickup should be a "go".  Hope you all decide to forget about being a little wet and show up and play.  2:30pm at Jefferson.

Below is a GREAT ultimate opportunity up in Kent on December 23rd, 3-5pm at Starfire.  Hopefully we can get a carload or two from Tacoma to go up and play.  Let me (Jerry) know if you are interested in carpooling.

We're going to have our first annual Christmas Ultimate game at Starfire Sports (Fort Dent) on December 23rd from 3-5pm. Starfire is extending an offer to us to combine Ultimate with a FOOD DRIVE. The FOOD DRIVE will support Tukwila Pantry (Food Bank). Food banks have been really low on food this year.


Starfire will rent the field for half price. So bring $5 to help pay for the cost of the field.

Please bring a bag or a bunch of bags, of non perishable food items and/or cash donations for the Tukwila Pantry (Food Bank). Money donations are even better since the food bank can buy what they need in bulk. $50 buys 500 meals. If you write a check, payable to Tukwila Pantry, the food bank will send you a receipt for tax purposes.

Tis the season for giving, so this donation really does help. What's a $10-$50 donation in the name of ultimate and helping the needy?

Let's make this first Christmas Ultimate a truly blessed event for us and those in our community.

As usual, we want to know we’ll have enough to make this a go, sign up at:

Madd Pizza afterwards for pizza, social cheer and beer.

Please forward to anyone not on this list that may be interested.

Yours Faithfully,
Todd Waetzig

Saturday Dec. 11th

We had a great turnout last week on the 4th.  Makes me pleased to think we can continue to play in frigid windy weather.  Nice to see some new faces who will be able to join us for Saturday ultimate.

However, don't plan on any ultimate on the 11th in Tacoma.  That is the day of the Chick Flick for the ladies, and the next day, Sunday the 12th, is the men's hat tourney Dangle Wrangle up in Seattle, and it is doubtful that many of us will pull off two cold days of ultimate in a row.  You should sign up for one of these.  If you want to carpool, let me know.  Nothing beats a ride in the minivan.  Snacks included.  Maybe.
