2016 Club Challenge Results

[pickax]

Thank you all for coming out to Lemon Lake Saturday. I am glad that everyone arrived safely was able to participate. We had 225 players participate.

Congratulations to J-Town and reclaiming the championship. That as a very impressive and well-earned victory. The difference between second and third place was a single putt! Tough battle there.

Thank you all for helping make this event happen. It is a lot of work, so I am grateful for all that step in to help out from checkin to tags and everything in between. Jay and Deb, thank you again for hosting and feeding us. Shawn McCarthy and John Cleaveland, thank you for sacrificing being able to play and help with the behind the scenes stuff.

I also wanted to extend my appreciation for the plaque and tags from each club that I was given. I am glad to work with all of you on providing opportunities for organized disc golf competition. I hope to see many of you out at the Illinois Open Series or other events this year.

I have already been making notes for improving things next year. We know that having this event in early spring is tough weather wise (We are all very glad there was no rain). While it would be nice to do this in warmer weather later in the season, there are a number of reasons we need to stick to the early spring date. Even having it as late as the second week of April, we ran into a number of players who opted to play in other PDGA events. It is also easier for us to be able to use the Lemon Lake facility when the demand for the courses is lower.

If you have any other feedback or ideas, please send them my way.
