Leagues & Tourneys / 2019 DISContinuum Club Challenge
« on: January 15, 2019, 12:17:54 PM »
Where: Lemon Lake County Park, Crown Point, IN
When: 4/13/19
Check-in will be 8:00 AM to 9:00 AM.  Tee-off will be right around 9:45 AM (Subject to change)
Cost: Free (J-Town Disc Golf Club will cover any gate fees for J-Town players)
Who: Clubs will include Basket Cases, Birdbrain, Discontinuum, Fox Valley Metro, Disc Golfer's Union, and J-Town. (Subject to additions)

It's time to defend our title from last year! If you are interested in playing for team J Town, please post your PDGA # and rating on this post. I would like to have our team roster ready by the end of March at the latest. The highest rated players for each pool will be selected. However, there will be captain picks for each pool. The board members need to discuss this part. Please read all of the info below. You must be a current 2019 J-Town club member. We will have memberships to sell that day, but please try to become a member before the day of the event. Also, please check your schedules to make sure you can play. Every year several players state that they are coming, and then back out a week or two before. A full team is needed to be successful at this challenge, and scrambling to fill spots is a headache I'd rather not deal with.

J-Town Disc Golf Club is looking for club members to commit to this event.  Format will be 2 rounds of singles.  Members will be divided into 4 division (A:945+, B:920-944, C:885-919, and D:<885).  Best 4 finishing positions for each division per round will count towards the club total.  Lowest club total wins.

Field limited to 10 members for each division from each club.  J-Town will decide our roster based on the following: 8 spots will go to the highest rated sign-ups, the other 2 spots in each division will be Captain's choice.

Please reply to this post (PDGA #, Name, and Rating) if you want to represent the J-Town Disc Golf Club.  I will periodically update this post with our roster.  You will need to be a club member to play (we will have memberships available at the event).

7.   Round Barn Signs
•   Thor:
o   Over the years J Town Disc Golf Club has spent money to help with course improvements.  Highland Park seems to be the main course that gets the most love, which in my opinion is the right course to put money into.    I am looking to start improving Round Barn Farm in Manhattan and the course needs tee signs.   I do understand that the course is not the most popular course but it is a course that J Town uses in singles play, doubles play, tournaments, and casual rounds.   Below is what I have priced out for the cost of the materials. 
o   18 tee signs.
   18 signs x $40 = $720
   18 -4x4x10 ft #2 pressure treated lumber x $10.17 $183.06
   54 bags of concrete x $6.59 = 355.86
o   The grand total to put the signs in and I will volunteer the labor will be $1,258.92.  Now if you have any ideas on how to do this cheaper I am all ears and willing to work with whoever to get them done as cheap as possible and installed by the end of September.   If you have any questions please feel free to ask questions.
•   Board would like Thor to present his case in person before agreeing to this level of funding for an under-utilized course.  Topic tabled to November meeting.

8.   Open Q&A
•   Continuing Member Rewards program?
o   We are planning on discontinuing this program due to a lack of interest and the difficulty involved with tracking work efficiently without reporting.
•   Channahon water issues
o   Work is on hold waiting for Forest Preserve approval

Meeting adjourned, 6:25 PM
