I'd rather not make brats this time around, as I still have about 5 leftover in the fridge from Gavin's birthday party last weekend....

[SERG]

Myk, can I catch a ride with you if you're going?

[tree]

I still have class on Wednesdays. I won't be able to attend.    

[Myk]

Yeah Serg, we can hook up for a ride.  I get out of work at 6, so I usually leave straight from there.  Let me know if you want me to pick you up or if you want to pick me up.

Allan S. Brett C., Dan M., Jon B., & Myk D. in attendance.

1. Waukegan Park District Info about missing basket & work on course.
WPD will replace stolen basket.
Will add to stones to bridge
Looking into the path from C to 9 & moving it to old path for safety reasons.

2. Finances (Balance, refiliing fees, & club stock). Update on non for profit status. Past treasurer not filing taxes in past years.
SunKing bill was finally paid in full for outstanding invoice from last september. To date total club funds = $553.60. There was a $5.00 & $18.00 fee to change contacts & record the club to remove Jim Klem from all reacords.  Non for profit status has not been reached yet. Mirth sent in a $150.00 check & we are still waiting to hear a response. Since becoming a recognized corporation, past taxes were not filed. Mirth is investigating what we have to do.

3. Website Statistics (Record in June).
Print out was handed around with all the info.

4. Membership & Bag Tag progress
(38 members, 45 bag tags-> New Record for both)

5. DISContinuum Blast.
Flyers are ready to go. Will be handed out @ Crystal Lake.

We will need 5 baskets to set up temp holes. Brett is bringing his Mach3. Contact Myk is you have a basket.

6. Bag Tag prize discussion.

7. Work days @ Fairfield to prepare for Fairfield Fairwell.
7-31, Wood Chips
8-21, Tee Pads

8. Looking ahead to 2005. Bag Tags & Schedule.
Looking at purchasing nice plastic tags with several colors. There was a discussion about keeping the membership $15.00 which included a bag tag. No $10.00 tags next year. There was also talk about not awarding prizes for tags. More talk about the rules about bag tags & why it is hard to determine who has challenged for a tag & how to award the prizes. New method to hand out tags was also discussed. Mentioned was a fee to pay for a lost tag. Brief 2005 schedule discussed as well. Nothing official, just exchange of opinions.

9. Club shirts, Myk.
Myk has all the info & can explain it better than me.

10. Official thank you to Wildwood Park District. Response from Chuck Martin about the job DISContinuum Disc Golf Club did.
Myk, Mirth, & I attended the WPD meeting last night. We gave them the disc most club members signed and a plaque with a nice engraving. They were very pleased with the job that DISContinuum did on the Twin Lakes project.

11. Doubles League Rule change. Final week playoff for payout positions.
This rule will go into effect immediately. If there is a tie for any of the top 3 positions, the playoff will be conducted on the final day of that league. Anyone not present will not be involved in the playoff. We got pretty lucky all 4 players tied for 3rd @ Spring League were present on the 1st week of Summer League. If none of the tied players are present, I will call them & have a skill game over the phone to decided who wins.

12. Other topics?
Disc Golf TV
Old club computer & printer that Jim has. Decided not to use it.

6. Bag Tag prize discussion.
Prizes were discussed. #1 Tag-> $50.00, #2 Tag-> $30.00, & #3 Tag-> $20.00.

Discontinuum sold 45 tags and $100 will be given out in total for the top 3.. ?

[Dan Michler]

its a fund raiser for the club D-train.

[D]

Yeah I know Dan, I'm not bitching, just asking..

I was under the impression that last year, that first place alone revieved a skillshot, which has a value of around $120.

And if this is a record setting bag-tag year, was just expecting more.


Not like it matters, I doubt i'll be top 3 anyways

I'm not aware that the top winner of the bag tags won a skillshot last year. However, the feeling was that cash would be of more value to more people than prizes.

[mirth]

Shawn Fallon did indeed receive a skillshot for taking first last year, if memory serves correctly
