End of the year party

Celebrate the wrapping up of another season of disc golf by playing the Jungle. We're keeping some of the cool team prizes for next season, but the rest of the ace pool (cash, discs, t-shirts, etc.) will be divvied out this Friday, Oct. 18. The format will be determined depending on who shows up at 11am. A grill will be present, so bring something that suits your appetite. The tradition of sharing some community food is also likely.

Tame the Jungle @ Sanford League done for year

Due to the increasing darkness of late September, Tame the Jungle @ Friday Doubles league has been shelved for the remainder of the year. That being said, the park is now free to enter till next April and plays all winter long. We still have a huge stash of goodies to distribute, so likely we will have a party sometime in mid-October to empty the bag. Thanks to all you who joined us this year and we look forward to a banner year in 2014. See ya then!

CTP Winners

Jeff Bonn took the cash CTP on hole 1 and also won a disc with drive 18' past the basket on hole 17. Curt McGill landed it on hole 7 to also take home a nice disc. The low doubles league record of 50 was tied so there's still a prize to the first pairing to score under 50. And there still have been no birdies on holes 3,5,12 or 18 to win the FINE disc donated by Fred McGill. thanks for donations this week include but are not limited to Matt, Jim, Fred, Jeff, Lance, Craig, Josh, the Park Staff and rain gods.

Thanks go out to Lance Anderson for the fine disc donated for the CTP on hole 1 last night. Senior Grand Master Fred "Up Hill" McGill parked hole 1 to win the disc and then did the same on hole 15 to win the cash CTP for the night. Next week the cash CTP is back to hole 1.

It's Friday, is it raining yet ?

last night's weather forecast was "rain starting near the lunch hour and continuing through early evening". Jungles are normally wet, aren't they ? RAIN OR SHINE, extra CTP's as usual, prizes for anyone beating the 50 low score. Come early, play late. The ace pool is building with donations from visiting players, $15.00 plus oodles of merchandise, as of today...

One HUGE cloud directly over Sanford Lake cooled off the hot round Clark S and Matt F were having going into hole 6, all 3's to that point. The rains nearly flooded the pavilion where 6 players took shelter from the UNBELIEVABLE rain until from no where, out of the cloud came Jakkob Lammi to shuttle all players back to the main parking lot. One Free League play Mr. Lammi. buckets of thanks from everyone

good times

thanks to everyone that came out tonight. The grills were hot to go and there was some great weather for disc golf. Brent Faubert placed his drive on hole 1 within a few feet to win the CTP pot of $17.00 and Alex and Clark ripped it up to take 1st by shooting a 51. 17 players, Jeff, we missed you, there would have been NO CALI.

LEADER BOARD

anyone that has been watching the leader board at the Jungle has probably noticed that Jeff Bonn and his partners have won every week but one (the week Jeff B wasn't there). The good news, no Jeff B tonight, so come out and try to beat 52, the lowest doubles of the year. $1.00 buy in for the CTP on hole #1 tonight. And with the dollar, you and your teammate also become eligible to win 2 GREAT ROCS that will be given away for the first deuce on hole 5, 12 or 18. We're thinking of adding hole 3 to that list, any thoughts ?
