Announcing the FIRST EVER 100/100 CTP Fundraiser!!!
I'm running a fundraiser for BOTH Aurora and Channahon's Ice Bowl at the Aurora Ice Bowl, Jan 29.  Read about the details here; http://jtowndiscgolf.com/SMF1/index.php?topic=238.0 (http://jtowndiscgolf.com/SMF1/index.php?topic=238.0)
I'll see you at BOTH Ice Bowls this year (or next, whatever)!

Just wondering where are all the J-town members with their donation to an event that they are running. There are around 150 members that were in this club in 2010. Frank has recieved less than 10 donations from club members for this event. Where the hell are all you guys? Let me guess no one has enough money to donate a measley 10 dollars. Wait a minute, most of you are playing in sundays league every week paying around 15 dollars, signing up for two or more tourneys every month(around 60 dollars or more), and i don't see a shortage of smoke on the course(who the hell knows how much that cost). Frank has done 95 percent of obtaining and collecting the sponsership money, the least you could do as a member of this club is pony up a little donation.  Cmon every member should be giving some sort of donation no matter how big, or get one sponser. Disc golfers constantly complain that the public doesn't take them seriously, and thinks their all a bunch of stoned degenerates. This is your chance to step up and prove them all wrong, or just continue with what your doing. Remember it all starts at the top and rolls down from there, so set a good example. Before anyone attacks back about this post,it is not about who is doing work or who isn't for this club its simply about giving 1 donation to your club just 1.

Raised $63 for Hesed House... So, I'll donate $63 cash on behalf of the 5th Annual Jericho Lake Ice Bowl.

Sorry Tafe, I forgot.My mind is imploding with details. I picked up the Innova travel basket, Sunday or Monday. Got $50.00 certificate from WalMart today, I had  non issue Dr's. appointment. I'm trying to coordinate my travel to the loose ends I have. It'll  be posted within the hour.

Forgot what?
My responsibility as I said it was.  It's all good, Frank.
Please make sure my donation is on behalf of the 5th annual Jericho Lake Ice Bowl, not me.  Thanks.

I guess it's not quite over. Updated.

flash,
    you have alot of room to talk, yes frank does do alot of work for this tourney and most of the J town members might not have donated directly,  like you did but I know alot of them shot in the tourney, (which i did not see you at) and of the members that did shoot in the tourney, alot of them bought raffle tickets which the money raised was also donated, so we all did our part or what we could do to help out and i think the  5500 or so that was raised proves that.

                         Dr pepper

I want to start with the bottom line first Flash has my back. He wanted to help but has a family & had some deal to go to with the kids. He offered to help until the BOSS told him differently. He lives for his family & that compromises his desires. I talk with Flash often & he offered to spend his gas to help with the sponsors. To give you some sliver of an idea of my frustration that I expressed to Flash. Jody's Hot Dogs!  As I ordered a meal & as doing so, asked for a donation. they said sure went back four times & got zero. Jewel on Jefferson, was four times, zero.
I know it was a financial  sacrifice for you,it cost you an extra $20.00& thanks for coming out.
Few know the effort. Gary Lewis knows & Flash knows from what I told him. Try 10 get 10 sponsors, cash sponsors. I've been breathing, eating, living, & focused on this since Thanksgiving. It's important to have players, that's why it's sanctioned. Think about it, if your motive was to give, $10.00 would be the same as playing. But why have a tournament with no players.
I love your spirit Dr. Pepper but Flash has more inside information & expressed my frustration. I might add, without my knoeledge.  If you look at my posts I was trying upside down backwords to encourage  giving.  
I mentioned this already, the J-Town board was a thing of beauty!
I had a personal goal of $5,000.00 & I couldn't be happier with the bottom line. We did this as a club, that's what the records will show.
I hope this helps you understand.
OK! Now I have to get the numbers to balance.

Don't know what your so upset about Dr.pepper, you done your part. My post is obviously not directed at you, as you played in the tourney and thus donated your part. My post is directly related to the Members who did neither one(donated or played). I can't give you the real numbers, but if 64 people played and assuming their all members plus another 6-7 that directly donated you get around 70 club members donated. Thats around half of what were registered in this club for 2010. Like Frank said his goal was to reach 5000 and he did, congrats to him and all that helped. I was trying to stir up the rest of the folks to donate, especially the ones like me who couldn't play. In closing i'm sure their are people in this club that didn't have the money to do either play or donate, and i apologize to them if they were offended.  Flash

I just wanted to said great job Frank for going out and getting all of the sponsors.
