 1/29/2013  Well hopefully everyone is recovered from the Ice Bowl Party Saturday and is ready for this week’s update. This week in local disc golf we have a full mini schedule. Abilene’s Ice Cup is next weekend. Junction’s Freezer is at the end of next month. Then before you know it…it will be Crush on the Concho time! Speaking of the Crush we are in need of help with gathering Sponsorships, if you are you know someone that might be interested hit them up….all they can do is say no. There is more info on that below. But before we get there we also have a work days scheduled to put in some work on the courses. Also if you didn’t do it out in Eola, 2013 CVDGA Memberships are open to renew.
I want to thank everyone for making the 6th Annual Eola “2 Disc and a mini” Ice Bowl a success again this year. Really want to thank the ones that came in from out-of-town: Abilene, Mertzon, Big Spring, Junction, Waco and anywhere else you might have come from…While I still haven’t actually done a count I think you might have out numbered the locals this weekend. So I want to make a point to Thank You guys for the support you show! That doesn’t in anyway mean I do not appreciate the locals that came out to support the event as well, Thank you guys as well. While turnout was a little lower than last year we still had 64 players attend the Party! We were able to raise $500+ dollars and several boxes of food for the Salvation Army this weekend. Plus I hope everyone had a great time out in Eola and is already looking forward to coming back next year! Thanks to Mark for letting us crash Bright Brewing once again, Cortese Flag for doing T-shirts on the cheap, The CVDGA for giving out minis. And thanks to all those that helped me either get the course together, do signups, and count scores during the day. I think for the most part this year’s Ice Bowl might have been the smoothest so far.
MINIS
5th Wednesday of the month is here once again…which means it’s GET RIPT WEDNESDAY at North Concho. 6pm teetime
Saturday will be handicapped singles also at North Concho. 10am teetime for this one.
Sunday is the weekly skins game at the lake…2pm teetime for this one. (Football season is over this weekend so we are almost done with skins for the season)
Crush Sponsorships Help
The Crush is coming and we are once again looking for sponsors for the event. There are several different levels of sponsorship ranging from as little as $50 up to as much as $500. The different levels offer different levels of exposure from a logo on the 150ish shirts printed to individual hole signs, to Sole Friday doubles sponsors and promotional banners at HQ. If you, or you know someone that might like to help the local disc golf scene by sponsoring the biggest event in West Texas please help anyway you can. We have sponsorship packages available that we can email you if you would like them to help. You can let either myself or the TD Jeanne Moore know you would like one.
Deadlines to keep in mind:
February 15th is the deadline to get into the players book
March 1st is the deadline to get on the T-shirt.
2013 CVDGA Memberships
Well the Ice Bowl has come and gone which means it is now time to renew your club memberships for the 2013 year. Memberships are only $10 this year and will go a long ways to help out local disc golf. If you would like to become a member all you have to do is either swing by Cortese Flag & Silkscreen fill out a membership form and pay the $10. If you can not or do not want to come by the shop I can always bring out the stuff to any mini I am attending. Just let me know. Right now I think we are at 21 members…we hit 60 last year so let’s see if we can do it again!
Thanks for the Club support!

CVDGA Work Day
The club had already had this day scheduled as a work day before we got the info on the Abilene Ice Cup. So if you are going up there…you have a good excuse to miss the work day. If you are not we’ll hope to see you at the lake course on Feb. 9th. We’ll also be working on South Concho on this day as well. More exact details on the workday will be in next week’s update. For now….save the date!
For the work day Feb 9th we will be doing some painting, replacing TBox markers, moving some baskets, light welding and all that good stuff. If you love the Crush like I do please come give an hour of your time to get the courses up to speed. If you can make it to S Concho and don't mind a little bit of yard work then this is your cup of tea! We have some light clean up to do and might need to move a TBox or 2. Email or post online what you can do to help out please!
Thanks in advance for showing up,
Cookie

Entry: $25
This will be 1 rounds of singles, then the 2nd round will be semi-random doubles….meaning you will be paired up according to your score.

In the past, this tournament raised funds for the Meals on Wheels program in Junction. This year it is going to be for one family that has ran into bad times and could use our help. Anything that we can donate to raffle and/or ctp would greatly be appreciated.
Think that will cover us for this week…we’ll see you in the park!
