Anybody for frisbee golf?

Thursday, July 10th, 2008

Recently several of our youth, spearheaded by one of our Horizons and LeadershipPlenty youth participators, visited with our planning committee about re-establishing the frisbee golf course in the park in Tyndall.  We said “go for it!” and pledged them a small sum to get them started. They visited with the city council to get permission to go ahead with the project.  The kids  also established a cost to the project-$3, 500. It sounds like a fun project-I might even could play that with my bumm leg. Now we need some fundraising or a donation to the project-hopefully it will be ready by next summer’s play!

Assuring our legacy…

Due to all the things we learned during the Horizons program, Tyndall now has the Tyndall Community  Foundation.  What’s that?  Is a public, tax-exempt foundation to which alumni and residents can contribute monies, land, grain, etc.  and the interest earned can be used towards any project,charity,or business development  that benefits Tyndall.  The local foundation is managed by the South Dakota Community Foundation. We have a job though….we have to raise 100,000 in 5 years. Then the SD Foundation will kick in 25,ooo. THEN a board of directors will request monies to help our community or to encourage new business.  It’s a great thing!  If you would like to donate any amount you can mail your check or have your legal counsel contact our Tyndall Community Foundation, Box 454, Tyndall SD 57066.  If you have questions, contact us here or call 605-589-3097.  Now for the fundraising…..
