UGA Bulldog Club Meeting-Dawg Days In Denver at Coors Field

The UGA Athletic Department and Alumni Association are pulling out all the stops for this event.

Exciting times in Denver lately for all Georgia Bulldog fans! Not only do we have an exciting season ahead of us -yes we do to all those naysayers, a huge following in the Front Range Colorado area, but we also have the support from all of the Athletic Dept from back in Athens.





The Bulldog Club has been aroud in Denver for a number of years now it seems. Back when I moved here in 1997 and helped kick start the group back up with the help of Brian Smith in 1999, we were small in numbers. Now times have changed, with close to 2,000 alumni base here in the Front Range, crowds reaching 150+ while viewing the Dawgs play at Mellow Mushroom, times have definitely changed for the better! Thanks again to Cheri, Lisa, Jonathan and Mark for all that they do with the Bulldog Club here in Denver, can't wait to see you again this Summer at the SEC picnic August 27th Wash Park.

Weekend Getaway In Aspen..Hard To Beat!

The Off Season in Aspen is Hard To Beat

When the weather starts to warm up and Summer is right around the corner, it's time to head to the Mountains again for some fun. For captivating views and the Lodging prices that get slashed....it's time to head to Aspen again . This time was different, I spent a Fantastic weekend with my Fiance in Aspen and enjoyed every minute of the off season here. We stayed at the The Innsbruck Inn, a sweet place that not only is right in town but also set us up with some local trails to hike with no one around.


Yes I love to fish but this weekend had other intentions and one that still reasonates from all the fun we had, only a few moments fishing but with all the trips I've had this Spring, it wasn't that big of a deal not to fish.

I fished the Frying Pan River for a bit but few hatches suprisingly. (middle pic)Having a little wine on top of Sunnyside Mtn. Closing down the Bar at the Hotel Jerome "J-bar" no better place to be, especially when you have Ditty a fellow Georgia Bulldog serving up some strong liquor drinks all night!

Too bad the Maroon Bells road was closed, too much snow apparently. They had 8" of snow right before we got there but fortunately we had nice weather with even 75' one day. If you do want to make the trek to Maroon Bells, it's 7 miles in and 7 miles out...that makes for one long day! Can't wait to get back there again.

If you can schedule it right and save a few pennies, try and make it to the Aspen Food & Wine Festival...talk about a wild weekend that is each year!

Bulldogs, Jaguars set for Golf NCAA title



STILLWATER, Okla. -- Carter Newman birdied the first playoff hole Saturday to beat Oklahoma State’s Sean Einhaus and lift defending champion Augusta State into an all-Georgia final round at the NCAA men’s golf championship.

Newman hit clutch putts on the 17th and 18th holes to keep the pivotal match going, then pumped his fist after dropping the winner on the 14th green. Augusta State claimed a 3-2 victory in the match-play semifinal, beating the powerhouse Cowboys in a rematch of last year’s final.
