Duncan,
OK (April 10, 2007) - The Junior
Disc Golf Foundation based in Duncan, OK - launched in March 2004, has
announced two new programs for Junior Disc Golfers.
Director
of the JDGF and Disc Golf Professional, Thomas Lowry (PDGA No. 2446), announced
today that the JDGF is going to be financially assisting some junior disc
golfer to go and play in the 2007 Junior World Disc Golf Championships being
held in Milwaukee, WI. Then, in 2008
and forward, the JDGF will be adding an additional program that will award a
scholarship to the winner of the Junior World Championships each year, provided
that the winner has plans to enter college once they have graduated from High
School.
For
the 2007 JDGWC, the JDGF has $500.00 in financial assistance to help cover the
expenses for a yet to be determined Junior Disc Golfer.
We
are proud to announce that the JDGF World Championships Financial Assistance
Fund Selection Committee is being headed by Kurt “The FrizWiz” Lampkin, who is
a Professional Disc Golfer located in Durango, CO (PDGA No. 1471). Mr. Lampkin also heads the Colorado Disc
Sports Association Columbine High School Memorial Foundation, promoting the
sport to youth in Colorado since 1999.
Mr.
Lampkin will be accepting applications on behalf of the JDGF until a suitable
candidate for the award is selected.
