Summer League $100 Jesse Saenz $25.00 It looks like we'll be around $5,500.00 in cash sponsors. Along with that $1,674.00 in raffle items value. Steve Slater is using a snow blower for the fairways tomorrow. I'll be doing the tees. I know......single digits for a high, ugh! Breakfast is on me, 9:00am Crackle Barrel tomorrow Feb. 6th.
Would love to eat that yummy breakfast if I could, thanks for all your guys work! That is awesome.
I just signed up for this weekend. I also just signed up for the PDGA, and I made a $50 donation to the Ice Bowl. Just make sure Frank knows!
Do we need the tees and paths to be cleaned?
I may possibly be able to get out there tomorrow after work.
Lemme know!

Every thing is coming along nicely. Kevin Macuiba helped with the pavilion. Steve Slater made a path to the baskets with his snow blower, quite a lot of work. The tees are clean. I'm meeting Ryan Fancher tomorrow, he made the sponsor signs. Chrissy Brown, from Morning Star Mission, is on track. She'll be there at 8:00am with coffee & hot chocolate. I wonder if she should be there a little earlier? Gary is all set. Thanks for the offer to help along with you donation Dave K.

My bad. For some reason I get these mixed up with Discatchers. The baskets I have are actually Chainstars, so they will match what Gary has. Been trying to reach him for over a week now. I also have the sign from hole 4 at West. A customer brought it in saying that he caught some kids vandalizing it and took I away from them. He left it with me to get it back to Gary, or the park district. I'll keep trying to reach him.
Gary will be at the Ice Bowl this Saturday. You can talk to him then.

Players are asked to come check in, and get their players packs at the flymart.
We'll have some great vendors, and a putting competition with some great prizes run by Miles Parkhill of Paragon, and sponsored by DGA.
Everyone is welcome to come out to the flymart, whether you are playing in the tournament or not. So come on out and get yourself some sweet plastic!
If you are interested in selling some of your collectables, or any disc golf related merch, registered players can get a table at flymart for $25. Vendors can get 2 tables for $50 and extra tables at $20 each. Contact Patrick at 815-993-3472 for details or to sign up. [/quote Focus on the Ice Bowl, Saturday, Feb. 8th, Channahon Community Park.
When the time comes, I'd be more than happy to donate a few baskets to get Highland up to snuff. I currently have three Discatchers that I would donate. And I'm sure I could buy a few more to help out.
It would be great to get this done in the next year or two. I do plan to expand First Flight, the A-tier I'm running, to include the Pros, and I would prefer to run one or two of their rounds at Highland.
So count me in! Please let me know if/when this is happening and I will participate in whatever way is needed.
You need to talk to Gary, he has chainstar baskets. I'm a helper, & will give input as needed.
Thanks for getting back to the post Frankie. That's great to hear that Gary is working on it. Only bad thing is that I just got ankle surgery and will not be able to play the Ice Bowl. So sad, but my bros should be there Frankie.

That is sad. The positive is it's winter. Unless you have to shovel snow from your driveway. That get's a little testy. Hopefully you can heal up for the summer. I don't except it, but if you want to give something to the Mission, that would be appreciated.
The J-Town Ice Bowl is this Saturday, Feb. 8th. Snow is expected Tuesday afternoon into Wednesday morning. I'm not sure what the Park will do, other than the parking lot. The Pavilion & tees will need to be cleaned. If you can help, let me know, that would be Great!!! We have 26 hole sponsors. We also have funds from winter league $589.00 & tags, $600 or $700. Also, about 50 items to raffle. That's a little skewed with 20 coming from Jimmy K's. Haunted Trails gave a $92.00 package, Town & Country a $75.00 value & then two portable baskets. I forgot, Gary & Dana will be giving discs. That will push us to 60 to 65 things to win. Wal-Mart, Target, & locals have donated.

Future Diagnostics (Tim Murray) $100.00 Harrah's $100 Bill Jacobs $100 We have $2,800 to date plus raffle items, that doesn't include around $700.00 from tags (Aaron Studer) & around $500.00 from winter doubles (Mick McGowan & Mike Holmquist) That's HUGE you guys!!! Aaron, you'll be missed doing tags. I can't thank you enough!!! Jesse & Darrin have been running doubles forever, & thanks for that. Back to the Fundraiser. My hand & toes don't account for donations from golfers. My logic is synergy, we get something at no cost, but yet, given the opportunity to give back, we decline. So sad!!!
Don't know how you do it my Brother but you know how to get those big numbers. Way to go Frankie! Killing it as usual. You do nothing half assed.

As I hear, we can not run an A Tier at Highland due to the basket qualities.This course is one of the toughest yet best to play. I dont know much about running tournies, but it would be awesome to see Highland apart of an A Tier.
If we had a huge group of volunteers to fund raise money to replace baskets why not break it off by hole and try to get them replaced?
Im sure Noe's are down to replace at least one. I understand it is not cheap one bit, but I figure we love to play and would try to give back somehow.
Thoughts? Maybe there is a certain reason why they havent replaced these? Just throwing the idea out there ppl.
Gary Lewis is handling that project. He already has some baskets. The summer league that has a basket fund that Gary has over sight on. I think, one of the problems is the baskets & poles are different sizes. We can't simply put a basket on a pole. If you want to give something back to the community, we're having an Ice Bowl fundraiser. It's for Morning Star Mission in Joliet. They've been caring for people for over 100 years. Sat. Feb 8th is the event.

Even though I haven't posted much, I'm still working on sponsors & donations for J-Town Ice Bowl fund raiser. This, for me, is about giving back. We are blessed with what we have in our area, & it's free! It's an opportunity to give back to the community. It's about what's in your heart to give to the needy. I don't think it would be a hardship to donate $20.00. My neighbors have given that at a minimum. It puts a positive face on disc golf. Believe me, it needs positive. I hope you can help out.
I'll post familiar names relative to disc golf that donate, like Shawn Harmon. Bill Jacobs, Casey's will get a sponsor sign. Hope you can follow my thinking, I'm not writing a book,this year.
