F.O.R.E! Youth 2011! Lunchtime June 18

[Rakoz]

Come join us Saturday June 18th at Lunchtime Disc Golf Course in Portland to raise money to put disc golf into academics; This year we are raising funds to purchase INNOVAs EDGE curriculum with any remaining funds going to course improvements (new teeboxs or new holes!) at Lunchtime.

We moved the tournament to early in the season so you didn't have choose between helping youth and going to one of the other annual events. Now you can do both!

More info to come soon.

Keep it up. I'll get a list if there are more or less available as of tomorrow.

You can bet that if they are an option I'll try to get them... thems fancy pants discs.

[Rakoz]

We have our first "ACE" level sponsor: Disc Golf or Die. Thank you DGOD for supporting our cause.

[Rakoz]

Updated the format for the afternoon. We'll be playing random(ish) doubles again. It's an extra $5 to play the second round OR bring a YOUTH with you and you both get in for $1 each! If you're a woman you also get in for $1 (we only had 3 of you ladies out there last year! Well those that weren't staffing the event.). Bring the whole family out!

I call it randomish doubles because I would like to have enough YOUTH and brand new players attend to set it up like we did last year: 1 experienced player teamed with a YOUTH or NEW player. We won't know this till day of or until pre-registration fills up.

[mrDROCK]

Teebird and Leopard please!

[Rakoz]

Teebird and Leopard please!

Online Registration should be up and running within the next 24 hours. PLEASE PRE-REGISTER! Online Registration will run up to a week before the event; after that you can make arrangements through me or try to pay day of!

To sign up get a free toss at the CTP basket!

[Jellifishie]

Ok, just to be clear since I have never seen this before...

I pay $11 just to play. And $10 more if I want a player's pack? And more on top of that for mulligans/ace/afternoon round/etc?

Yep. Ladies/Novice get in for $11 and $21 for round + players pack. More on top depending on mulligans, gimmies, raffles, etc. Acepot is a $1 per person for the morning round and is included in entry.

It's a great event and dirt cheap (comparatively). Bring some friends, have some fun, raise money for a good cause and win some stuff!

[Rakoz]

If I would have counted all the times you voted Teebirds would have came in 1st, 2nd, 4th, and 5th (Makos were really popular).

[Rakoz]

In other sponsorship news: Stumptown Disc Golf club is offering up some more swag for our event, see Disc-Van-Go news below, Mateo Hylton will be supplying us with extra baskets and we'll be giving away one of his creations in our skillshot competition, and DISC GOLF OR DIE is offering up a ton of swag too as our First ACE level sponsor (but you already knew that if you were paying attention!

FORE! Youth will be giving away approximately $650 worth of prizes as of today in Raffles, CTPs, Skillshot and more. That is in addition to cheap cheap cheap entry and players packs (featuring CFR discs from INNOVA and matching custom minis from Littleflyer).

Seriously folks, GET SIGNED UP!

Remember: Ladies and the under 18 crowd get $4 off the competitive round and doubles round (counts towards a players pack too), DGOD members get buy 2 get one free attempts at the Hylton Basket Skillshot competition, 18 holes of challenging play at Lunchtime Disc Golf Park and WE'RE RAISING MONEY FOR KIDS IN DISC GOLF WITH ADDITIONAL FUNDS GOING TO COURSE IMPROVEMENTS AT LUNCHTIME (holes 13, 14, 15 can only go in with your help!).

Special Shout out to the Greater Portland Bible Church... I LITERALLY couldn't do it without you!

This sounds like such a great event. Why did I have to screw up my leg!! 8(

If you can stand you can throw 6 upshots at a basket for a chance to win it... if you can drive there (in a car silly) you can enter a raffle... if you want fancy discs you can still buy them at the event...Just saying...Much like last year this was a pretty good hang out event. Sadly, there won't be onsite food this year but probably still a nice day...

[Rakoz]

I will be at Monday's Luncthtime League @ Lunchtime DGC... Come see the beautiful discs, accompanying minis, and get pre-registered! Next 3 to Pre-register still get a shot at the Hylton Basket for Free!

[Jellifishie]

Was wondering....are the ladies going to be playing the short teepads? Also, on hole 4 there's a sidewalk by the grass along the hill w the hole and in front of it is a row of bushes (think lefty throw). Is this still "an island"/OB?

I'm open to that change. There are a lot of holes using alt tees and baskets so I'm not sure if an additional change would be that helpful. I'll think it over.

On #4 that would typically be OB. #4 will not be the same for my event, however, as that hole impedes the flow a lot.

[Rakoz]

Sweet minis are in! You should have a few... big ones and spirals... tons of colors and stamp colors.

I wasn't requesting it necessarily. Just curious as I have been out there lately practicing and wanted to know where I should be practicing from. I'd assumed there was going to be some change up to add the additional holes, so I guess I'll just practice for practice's sake ha. :)

[Rakoz]

About a week left! Pre-registration goes offline this weekend. I'll be at the Lunchtime League on Monday handing out CTPs, signing people up, and slinging discs (selling and playing). Please commit to coming to this event in advance if you are planning on showing day of but can't pay.

We're giving away over $650 in prizes including a full ride on Disc-Van-Go for you and your friends as well as a Hylton basket. DGOD members get buy 2 get one attempts at the basket. Stumptown members get buy 1 get one gimmies during the competitive round (yep we sell mulligans and gimmies!). Doubles round to follow in the afternoon (format TBD).

[Rakoz]

Just a reminder that FORE! Youth 2011 is next Saturday, June 18th, don't forget!

[Rakoz]

DGOD just stepped up to throw down an ACE Race 2011 Entry into the prize pool... We're at over $700 in prizes to give away next Saturday!

That is awesome. I hope to make it next year and perhaps bring some of my students with me.

I hope you make it this year! With events in AM and PM I know a lot of people are doing one or the other this year. If you can make it out at all it could easily be worth your time. Feel free to send any of your students my way; remember it's $1, $11, or $21 for them if they are under 18.

[Rakoz]

62 hours till FORE! Youth 2011... um... in case my math is wrong: Saturday the 18th at 8:30.

[HarrisonH]

The Wraiths in the players pack are freaking awesome... got to throw one tonight. Also got hooked up with a set of the FORE minis as a CTP prize for night golf at Lunchtime tonight, and they are really nice. If anyone reads this in time for the event and isn't already attending, GO! Take my place, work is being a beotch to me this week and I am not able to attend anymore :(.

Unfortunately I cannot stand nor drive at this time. Please let me know if you have any discs left over for sale. I may take one of your hands.

Official $$$ tally: FORE! Youth 2011 raised a total of $982! With a $4 donation from the Rakoz family we hit our goal of $350 over cost to pay for the EDGE Curriculum to be used at YPLC and beyond! Thank you to our long long list of sponsors: Disc Golf or Die, Disc-Van-Go, Hylton Baskets, INNOVA, Disc Golf Creations, Bob Horning, Andy Man, and Stumptown Disc Golf. I would also like to thank the Greater Portland Bible Church as we could not do this without you! I would also like to thank Dan Brown, DC Dan, Andy, Vince, Thomas "T" D., Rick Jones, Cale Byrom, Nick, and my wife Heather! All 36 players for the A.M. Round, the 12 brave doubles participants, and anyone else who bought a disc, mini, or helped out in any other way!
