Title: IL State Coordinator Candidate
Post by: pickax on June 03, 2012, 06:36:43 PM
First of all I want to thank Brett Comincioli for being the state coordinator for the past few years. Since Brett is stepping down this year, I figured it was my turn to step up. I intend on running for the IL state coordinator this year. I have big shoes to fill, but hope that I will be able to continue serving as well as Brett has.

I'm glad to hear you are running.  It can be a big, thankless, volunteer responsibility.

Someone asked me to run for Michigan state coordinator today.  I told him I cannot be state coordinator for the same reason I cannot run tournaments in Michigan.  But I'll be happy to continue being the tournament lunch coordinator!   ;D

Thanks for stepping up Mike.  I think you'd do a great job.

Congratulations MIke. You will do a great job.  There is only one problem.  You and I have battled over the past few years.  I win by a few, you win by a few.  At Ill. States you beat me by one. Now you are State Coordinator.  You saw what happened to the last guy.  ;D  I'm gonna have you for lunch.  >:D

Kidding aside, Brett, thanks for all you have continued to do for Illinois disc golf. Tough shoes to fill but we have the right guy to fill them.

congrats   mike , no turning back now.

why would they list those non essential items like that ?

typically disc golfer who bitches then will do nothing for the sport

( i for one have voted for my brother in the  past  , but not sure when or how many times)

mr trotter's bio was a little thin  imho ,  mike had a clearer agenda listed

a big thanks to mr trotters central il disc golf efforts

I am glad Mike was running.  I knew Brett was ready to be done and be able to get back to just enjoying the game.  Running a tourney or two doesn't take nearly as much organizational skill as a Tourney Series - so I for one am glad that Mike will be using those skills for the betterment of the entire state.

And thanks for the kind words.

Illinois did have a huge voter turnout on this, it is great that people took the time to vote. It is nice that we could not go wrong with either choice.
