What Are Funds From Donations and Product Purchases Used For?
The Chico Outsiders help operate and maintain disc golf equipment in Chico. We have specific financial obligations with the City of Chico at Peregrine Point. Those obligations include providing insurance, paying for annual monitoring of botanical assets, and maintaining the equipment at the site. The existance of a non-profit is also a requirement for Peregrine Point to remain open to the public. The majority of funds raised are applied to keeping the Peregrine Point site open to the public.

Some funds are also used to augment or improve other disc golf opportunities, such as the installation of obstacles or improvements at Sherwood Forest or in the many local parks where we've installed practice targets. Additionally, the Chico Outsiders have no paid employees, and minimal overhead. As such, we are extremely efficient in our use of donated funds. Your donation will be used to support recreation in our local parks.
Feedback From A Previous Fundraising Project

"It was great to be able to assist the Outsiders with the Sherwood Forest disc golf course.  They proved to be a very wise and dedicated group showing great stewardship of their contributors hard earned money.  They were able to make efficient use of their funds to make the course happen within their budget.  I sincerely appreciate their hard work for the betterment of our community!"

"The Sherwood Forest Disc Golf Course has now been complete for almost two years, and the Outsiders continue to dedicate time and resources to help maintain the course. Their commitment to the community in providing instruction and teaching children about disc golf, as well as coordinating volunteers to help maintain the course has been a tremendous help to CARD"
