Burlington, VT Ultimate Frisbee

Member/Visitor Benefits

a. Use of Callahan Park

i. Purpose. The main purpose of Callahan Park is open community pickup. Therefore, a minimum of one field will always be allocated to pickup. However, in order to enhance the opportunities and events available to all members, support local organizers and make full use of the space, the second field – when there is one - can also be used for other Ultimate-related activities such as team tryouts, practices and clinics.

ii. Participation Eligibility. All GMDA members and visitors are welcome to join the pickup games as well as any other activity taking place at Callahan Park regardless of age, gender, physical shape, experience or skill level. There is no need to request the permission of the GMDA Board before showing up, and participation is free. Please consult the calendar and the pickup page for dates and times, and sign up to the list serv to receive all the notifications.

iii. Reservations. Local organizers wishing to use the second field to run Ultimate-related activities other than pickup must contact the GMDA Board for pre-approval no later than 1 week prior to the upcoming requested date. Only activities that are open to all without exceptions will be considered. The GMDA Board reserves the right to decline reservation requests based on a number of factors such as availability, demand, field conditions, respect of city code, as well as to ensure that the best interests of the community are met. If pre-approved, the activity will be added to the calendar, an announcement will be sent out to the list serv, and the second field will be set aside for that activity regardless of pickup turnout. This benefit is offered at no cost to the organizers or the participants. Requests can be placed for as many dates as needed in advance, however the GMDA Board will process one date at a time.

b. Liability Insurance
