Thank you Fred, very kind words. I spent some time looking this morning for your lost disc, but never found it. That makes 2, I believe you lost a pink SWAN on hole 2 a couple of years ago, but it''s not been found. However you have memories of historic proportions concerning Hole 13 and Hole 14. ; )

I'm sure you will all have a BLAST and enjoy seeing the course. Can't get the shoulder convinced that it's not hurting, going to pass with a rain check to see the course ?

Dean Barker    June 20, 2018 at 12:51pm

So there's plenty of room for all, please parallel park along the split rail and angle park along the pine tree line to the south. Thanks

It just so happens that another 50+ buddy of mine would like to play. Rex R #103302. That is, if you still have room enough for one more old fart. ;-)

Tee-off at 10:00 ! Player meeting 9:45 for a bit of orientation. You won't be disappointed. It is very much above average!

Awesome on the donation!

Only if it's under 60 degrees. Otherwise, it's short sleeve for me. :)

Hi Dean - Thanks for the invite, looking into it at the moment, 1:40 drive, any opinions on nearby campgrounds? MapQuest shows Alice Springs RV, and Ionia State Rec area. If I do, I'd like to make the weekend of it.

Wright Way Carpet is between us and the camp grounds and has an excellent pro disc golf shop on site. Worth checking out.

Ron Simpson   June 14, 2018 at 5:52pm

Thanks for the advice, will put a definite yes or no on here shortly, but boy it sure sounds fun!

Ron Simpson   June 18, 2018 at 2:00pm

Hey Dean - Just found out I won't be able to make it this weekend. I sure hope you have another, it sounded like fun!

Josh Russell    June 13, 2018 at 8:23pm

This is my weekend to work so I won't be able to make it. Huge shout out to Dean for putting this event on. I've heard nothing but good things about his course and am totally bummed that I can't make it.
