And then after all the prizes were awarded, we had some glow fun.
We estimate there were over 1000 glow sticks to supplement the 18 led basket lights that Bryant brought.
The glow round was epic and an awesome end to a fantastic season. Getting up for work the next morning was tough, but it was worth it :)
Thanks to all the players for helping set up the glow. Thanks to Brandon Daugherty for organizing the glow bags and distribution.
Thanks to Todd Daugherty for the massive amount of additional glow sticks, enough for an entire glow round by itself.
Thanks to Jeff Furbush for organizing a disc swap event at the Finale.
Thanks to all those that contributed food, drinks, baskets, or other goods for the nights festivities. Rav, your eggplant parm was amazing!
Thanks to Justin Ober for deftly manning the grill for the night. Everything was timed and cooked to perfection!
Super special thanks to
Bryant Chamberlain, for his course whiskering effort this year, and for helping me with covering a few rounds this year. It can sometimes be tough for me to balance my work schedule to make the rounds, or sometimes I just need to escape for a vacation. Bryant was always ready and willing to take the reigns!
Matt Stolarz for his crafty creative capabilities and owning the club tag creation this year.
Mark Ravanelle for his tireless efforts and dedication to making our disc golf home a better place each year.
Breakin Chains Disc Golf Supplies (now located in Manchester NH near the Hollows) for their continued support. They donated over $600 in cash proceeds from 2 tournaments they hosted in Pelham, plus $300 in gift certificates and over $100 in merchandise for our league finale. Thanks Bill and Norma and the Breakin Chains crew for another year of sponsorship!
