Hello Fellow Disc Golfers,

The San Francisco Disc Golf Club is proud to present the 2011 San Francisco Safari in Golden Gate Park, July 23rd & 24th. This is a PDGA sanctioned event and part of the NorCal Series.

This year’s event will be a Pro/Am tournament due in large part to the fact that we will also have the Safari South Course along with our permanent Marx Meadow Course.
