Quote from: xgibbyx on June 08, 2012, 10:19:46 AM I am very proud to say that I served 9 years active duty and I know exactly how it feels to be deployed and how much care packages and letters from home really impact deployed troops, so I will bring some stuff next handicap or doubles league next week.I have a weed whacker and can help with work day stuff at Highland. Let's get it done! I'll bring my kids and make 'em pick up trash for ice cream! That's GREAT! I need a spirit lift. I know about being deployed also. I also know about being hated when the tour is over. The care packages are for Wed. Maybe we can hook up Tuesday. I'll be there Tuesday & my name is Frank, please introduce yourself.

Thanks for keeping track Paco.
Jesse,Please put Mike Kursell on the list of nominees. He has long been a part of the disc golf scene around Joliet. He does all my artwork, and never asks for anything in return. I know he has done artwork for J-town this year as well, and Thor, etc. We are lucky to have so many talented individuals passionate about disc golf, and Mike Kursell is certainly one of them.
These are the candidates so far. This is just the nomination part of the process. The actual voting will start September 1, 2012. I will also post the list of each individuals accomplishments on this date.Please put other candidates names below and tell why they are deserving of this great award. Their achievements should take place from September 2011 through September 2012. You can also email me at disc71@comcast.net with your nominations.The nomination process will end August 31. Batchelor, Thor Bingham, Dean Borowski, Leo Harmon, Shawn Hill, Ray Holmquist, Mike Johnson, Darrin Johnson, Patrick Kociuba, Dave Kursell, Mike McGowan, Mick Poole, Jason
Quote from: Disc71 on August 22, 2012, 12:05:35 PM Are you looking for comments on the listed people? All have contributed. I'm not sure, but I think Tom Matesevac & Dan O. contributed a great deal this last year. Without waiting for your answer I'm commenting the top & bottom of the list, Thor & Jason. I remember Thor last fall doing tournaments the end of last year. He's been huge at Lockport with the help of many. He also helped me with getting the travel baskets, for the raffle for the Ice Bowl. I know he has a lot on his plate, so a lot has been a sacrifice. I'm a lot closer to what Jason Poole contributes, mainly because of the club, I'm on the board with him. First, he's the staple! He has ideas & plans & executes! He's a big deal with local tournaments with his computer work. Jason is always there, in the grass, helping!!!
Woh...Mr. Frank Grimes isn't on the list!Please add Frank - not only does he put his time, money, and sweat into beautiful Channy, he is a fantastic person all around. He is battling cancer but still does what he does. He makes an effort to befriend new people and make them feel extremely welcome. If it wouldn't have been for Frank's outward show of support, I don't think I would have had near as much motivation to continue to improve and keep playing the singles league. Frank, you have my vote, sir!
