I need video of some nun on nun action, Jon.  Wouldn't want to make a habit out of it, though.

Ben C didn't?

Ben C didn't?

I think anyone rated over 945 is already qualified.

Thanks for the great tournament everyone! I love it at Channahon, Frank! For some reason, I never seem to do well on tourneys there (check out my ugliness 2nd round  ) but always have fun. Enjoyed myself even when grumpy old hands wouldn't work. Oh well, I'll keep trying!

Jake, I'm sorry for not calling your name out for your overall trophy. I knew you were there but in the sea of trophies I just overlooked it. Congratulations!

[JakeJacobs]

No problem Jon! Didn't really need to be in the spotlight. Love the trophy though!

I have to comment that it was nice not to get wet ,
that the safety of the players was placed first rather than trying to get the round in

it was a pretty major storm to watch from the car

Anyone coming out this weekend that would like to donate mid range or putters to a convent in Michigan, please give them to me. My niece Meris joined the Sisterhood last Fall and has  introduced disc golf to the convent. My sister gave them a Ching basket and my Dad is buying them another basket that Bruce will be delivering soon. From the sounds of their outings though they could use more discs. The nuns have made one field trip to a local nine hole course. I can only imagine what people must have thought if they saw them playing in their habits! LOL

Thanks!

Kelsey and I delivered the basket and a big bag of discs to the convent on Sunday.  We added some discs from our personal stash that have gone unthrown for some time.  The phone number did not work so we just showed up on the convent doorstep.  When we got close there were groups of nuns out walking on Warren Road so we asked for directions.  I told them I had a delivery to make.  I think half of them assumed I was referring to Kelsey.  Sister Mary Elizabeth seemed very happy to have another basket and more discs, but she seemed like she might have been well practiced at rejoicing in all circumstances, so she was hard to read.

Do you know if my note to Meris made it there or if it will be delivered to her?

[Bruce Brakel]

The card was delivered with the discs.  I told Sister Mary Elizabeth, who received the delivery, that there was a card in there for a Sister formerly known as Meris Chaumont who was my niece.  I got a blank look.  I said, her name before she was a Sister was Meris, and show-mow is spelled c-h-a-u-m-o-n-t.  Then she said that Meris was still using Meris and I said that there was a card in there from her other uncle.
