Live Oak Disc Golf Alliance

Club Information and History

LODGA was formed by Brian Schmidt in 2004.  Brian had the vision of a day when many disc golf clubs cooperated with each other to grow the sport and provide a fun atmosphere for the disc golfer.  As such, he created LODGA to be an Alliance of many players from all over South Texas.  LODGA was run by Brian nearly single-handedly for several years.

In 2007, when Brian was forced to move to Dallas for his job, a few of us saw the need to formalize the club, because it required a small army of us to continue the foundation laid by Brian.  We were truly amazed at the amount of time and effort that running the club required.  So we developed a charter and articles of association to give us a way to fill his  size 21 shoes.

On January 5, 2008, a club meeting was held.  The idea was presented and the charter was approved unanimously. 

Officers were nominated and elected, and the club was reborn.
