4th DISContinuum Blast!

[mirth]

Jon, I'm planning on helping on Sunday. I should know for sure if you can count on me later tonight when I talk to Beth.

She may come by and ask I duck out with Gavin and her to hang out in the park, but that would only be during rounds...

(Mirth-that's when a lot of the "work" for the tourney is done)

[mirth]

Like I said, I'll let you know later tonight or tomorrow if you can count on me Jon. Thanks for the heads up Becky. The only other event I've ever helped out at was definitely *not* busy during the rounds but rather before round 1, between round 1 and 2, and after round 2.

[Jon Brakel]

It all depends on the course. At Crystal Lake we had to have one person (Diana) dedicated to working merch during the rounds because they had so many casuals there. There probably won't be as many at Bevier. During round one I'll need to do the financials and get the payouts posted. If the play is quick, Bruce and Brett will have to help me do CTPs for the afternoon round. I can do pretty much everything myself but having someone to help is a good thing. Whatever you have time to help with, I'd appreciate.

Since all of our normal Sunday tournament volunteers are busy this weekend, I could use some help. Please see me Sunday morning if you can help out.

Thanks!

Jon, I'm going to try to get out there Sunday morning to give you a hand.  I should be available through the day.  

Is there a particular time you would like people around to help?  7:30AM?  Earlier?  Later?

AM.  Ugh.

7:30 is a good time if that works for you.

Jon, I'm sorry but I wouldn't expect to see me until the afternoon rounds are already underway... possibly as late as the finals for the open division. The wife would like to have me around in the morning and early afternoon as pennance for spending all day saturday away.

[damonshort]

I think I can help on Sunday, unless for some reason I wind up not making it on Saturday to play  

I'm leaning towards the Red division, considering that I don't think I'll crack 875 on the next update anyhow.

I talked to Scott McClean last night of the Waukegan Park District. They are going to do a full detail service on the course Friday. Mowing, edging around the baskets & new limestone, &  much more.

Adrian Sr. is going to fix basket A so it's not so low. Thanks Adrian for working on your day off!

The weather looks good for Saturday & Sunday. Can't wait!

Hello, Ive neer been to bevier park before and have no idea on how to get there.  I was thinking about playing there on friday before the blast.  Could I get directions from the buffalo grove course?  And what kind of turnout are you expecting? Thanks.

[mirth]

Nick,

I'd take 41 North to Grand Avenue, exit going East (right)
Take Grand to Green Bay Road, go left
Take Green Bay to York House (Stoplight, Green Bay is now 2 lanes, 7-11 on corner), go right.
Take York House to the entrance to Bevier! =)

[CEValkyrie]

And what kind of turnout are you expecting?

We have no idea what kind of turnout we'll have. You never can predict what disc golfers will do.  The only thing we can go by is what we drew this summer.

June
Streamwood, IL
Streamwood Starter
Saturday-> 40
Sunday-> 38
Total-> 78

July
Crystal Lake, IL
Crystal Cruise
Saturday-> 42
Sunday-> 38
Total-> 80

August
Round Lake, IL
Fairfield Fairwell
Saturday-> 61
Sunday-> 36
Total-> 97

We look forward to seeing you there. Print out a map from the front page of the site. It shows which tees we will be playing & where the temp holes are located. I painted the lines so they are easy to find.

Kenosha Discers who are playing the Blast (Steve/Kyle/??):

Anyone interested in carpooling on Saturday? I'd be willing to drive. PM or post me if you're interested.

Thanks.

[damonshort]

Bruce, will you have any of the 150g z-plastic this weekend? I know it hasn't been 'released' yet but you have connections....

I'll take a z-Talon if you have them. I've still got $10 brass left and can't think of anything else I "need"....

Serg,

Yep, I'm playing, and Kyle is too.  I live 15 minutes from the course, I was just going to drive down.  That way I can sleep in a little.  

I know you and Kyle live pretty close to each other, he might want to join you for the ride.

Steve

[SERG]

Thanks, Steve. We'll see you there.

[damonshort]

Another smooth effort by the Three St.. I mean, Jon, Bruce & Brett.

and the first one they've run this year where I had a decent result.  

Congrats to Adrian Sr. who obliterated everybody today!  

I was glad I chose to stay in the Red division (hopefully next time I won't be eligible...) where I didn't shoot great, but good enough to make a 3-way tie for 2nd [nice shot on the playoff Kyle  }.  And thanks again to the organizers for providing a 3rd place trophy disc, which I managed to back into after another 4 holes; it definitely wasn't Schultz & Climo, but it provided some entertainment.

And the payout was truly impressive. Even more plastic I don't need...
