Frisbee Creator Dies

jakub — Wed, 17 Feb 2010 15:08:12 +0000

Fred Morrison put his World War II experience as a fighter pilot to peaceful use by inventing what became known as the Frisbee.

Mr. Morrison, who died Tuesday at age 90, called his earliest flying disks “Whirlo-Way” and “Pluto Platter,” to capitalize on the flying saucer craze of the 1950s.

In the 1960s, the Frisbee became identified with the counter-culture and with movie stars like Richard Burton and Julie Andrews, who affirmed they were fans. The disks even inspired new sports, including Frisbee Golf and Ultimate.

“It is impossible to fathom the impact Fred Morrison has had on the world through the invention of such a simple object know as the Frisbee,” said Kevin Givens, executive director of the World Flying Disc Federation.

Beat the Heat!

Now that we are moving into the hot weather, here are some tips on how to beat the heat:

Make sure to take plenty of rest breaks, always stay properly hydrated, and wear lightweight clothing.
Wear sunscreen & a hat
Plan to exercise during the early morning or late evening if possible, when the temperatures tend to be cooler.
If someone shows warning signs of heat illness, get the victim to a shady area right away. Try to cool the victim immediately with a wet cloth, or spray from a cool shower or garden hose. Seek out medical help as soon as possible.

Hey Kids, come out and learn how to play Ultimate Frisbee, this Saturday, May 23, 2009 from 11am – 1pm at Tranby Park.

Members of Windsor Ultimate will teach boys and girls ages 11-16 how to throw, catch and play Ultimate Frisbee. Come out, run around and make some new friends. Bring water and cleats or running shoes. The clinic is free.

FIELD CONDITIONS
As many of you know, the city of Windsor workers are on strike right now, this has impacted us via lack of field maintenance (Tranby) and no field setup has yet begun on our new field. The grass maybe a bit long, so something to keep in mind.

Windsor Ultimate discs are for sale $15.00.
