 1-16-2013 Ok so I am once again a day late in getting out this week’s update. I apologize, but things are just really busy at work and this is when I could get to it. As for the this week in DG – we have a full mini schedule this week. The Ice Bowl is just a week and a half away in Eola. And the Crush is the main topic at board meetings these days so it must be creeping up on us as well. Other than an Ice Bowl type event in Junction next month there is still not a lot of area disc golf on the radar. We finally had 1 new person (THANK YOU DENISE) step up to fill the last open board position of 2013, so we will now once again have a full board to depend on this year….but the time is coming (about this time next year) where some new blood is going to have to step up or things will drastically change with disc golf here in San Angelo.
This is the last week I am going to ask for people to let me know you want to keep receiving the weekly updates. If I don’t get a reply by this time next week I’ll take it that you either don’t read them or don’t want to get it any longer. But if you do want to keep getting it all you have to do is hit the reply button and say something like “keep it coming”. Thanks!
MINIS
Wednesday is set for random doubles at Picnic bend. 6pm teetime….dress warm and/or bring the right beverage to keep you warm cause it’s sure to be a cold night on the course!
Saturday’s mini will be at random doubles at North Concho. 10am teetime
Sunday is the weekly skins match at the lake. 2pm teetime.
Eola “2 disc and a mini challenge” Ice Bowl
Jan. 26th is the date
9:15ish is the signup time.
(please be aware you can signup for someone else, but that person will not receive a players pack….that makes it unfair to those that did stand in line hoping to be one of the first 50.)
Cost is $15 plus 3 cans of food ($30 if no food is brought) You are encouraged to bring more food if you can, the Salvation Army won’t tell us no that’s to much)
Holes: At least 2 rounds of 21, possibly 2 rounds of 22 depending on how this weekend’s layout goes.
$5 ace pot
2 Divisions – Mens and Womens
Please start the signup line out side of the signup room so we can get things setup and in order before we get started
We will have a laptop to do scores on this year…so hopefully things will not take as long during lunch and after the 2nd round to get payout figured…YEAH!!!
I want to thank both Mark at Bright Brewing and Cortese Flag & Silkscreen for the support shown to this event. Please support these supporters of the CVDGA anyway you can…they do a lot for local disc golf.
Hope to see a lot of familiar faces in Eola next weekend!!!!
11th Annual Crush on the Concho
Here is the latest from the TD:
Registrations are now open for the Crush through Disc Golf United or you can just click on this link http://www.discgolfunited.com/disc-golf-tournaments/tournament-dashboard.cfm/tourn_id/607
Some things to know is that this is an Online Registration only, Pre-Registration only tournament. This means you can only register for this tournament through Disc Golf United and no other way. This also means that if you are not pre-registered by Thursday, March 7th by 7:00 pm CST, then you can not register and play this tournament. There are no late registrations and no day of registrations, no exceptions. Another very important date to remember is that if you want a T-shirt in your players pack you have to be pre-registered by 8:00 pm CST by Sunday March 3rd.
This year we are offering a new division and that will be Women's Advanced Masters. As all sanctioned events there must be 3 players signed up in order for any division to make. Another thing we will do differently this year for time issues is the Pool that is starting at South Concho will be having their players meeting there with the Assistant TD. All players will still need to come to Middle Concho (Lake Course) on Sat morning from 8-8:45 to check in and get their pool assignment. We are in hopes this will help out greatly with our time issue so that those that have to play South Concho for the second round on Sat are not playing in the dark as they were last year. We will post more information as time gets closer, but it anyone has any questions, please feel free to post them here or you can contact Jeanne Moore at wake_n_jeanne©yahoo.com
I’d also like to point out that if you are from out of town and are planning on staying in a hotel, the Oil Field is going strong here and hotels are getting hard to get. So make reservations early if possible or you may just end up camping after all.
Crush Sponsorship
We should have sponsorship info and packs out next week and we can use all the help we can get gathering sponsors for this year’s event. If you or you know someone that would possibly sponsor please help out if you can. Remember all they can do is tell you no, so it doesn’t hurt to ask. The more sponsors we can get the better the players packs and payout can be!
Next Crush Work Day
I want to thank the 5 people that showed up to this past weekend’s work day. Be sure to thank these people as they are doing a lot of work for the “I only wanna be a player disc golfer”. Coby, Cookie, Jack, Sean and Jason.
The next scheduled work day is set for Feb. 9th. We will be doing work at both South Concho and Middle Concho(the lake) hopefully getting the last of the work that needs to be done for the Crush finished up.
BOARD MEMBERS NEEDED FOR 2014
I am going to put this out there now in hopes that few people will decide between now and then to step up to the plate and help local disc golf continue to grow in this town. There will be at least 2 of the current long time board members that will be taking a break for being so involved in the CVDGA. That’s not to say they won’t be around to help when help is needed, but in order for the club to continue functioning we will need some new blood to step up to the plate. Thanks!
Think that should cover us for this week….we’ll see you at the course!
