C'mon now, it's not that need to know.

From the most recent newsletter:

Sea-tac disc golf course is currently undergoing new management. I (Keith Lionetti)am currently working with city of sea-tac and Herm to renegotiate a new contract.What this means is that I have invested some money to take on the stewardship role of the disc golf course located inside North Sea-tac Park. I am willing to make this a club run course, and in doing so I want to offer anyone interested in helping to make this course look better a chance to adopt-a-hole. This program will have a couple of options. If you have the luxury and can afford it for $200 you can get a personalized marble engraved slab with your name,your organizations name or if you want to personalize the hole with a nickname that you choose to give it. As long as it is OK with the City of Sea-tac Parks we will place this slab securly next to the tee pad of your proposed hole. If we cannot for some weird city of sea-tac parks code that we cannot negotiate or get around each of them will be displayed proudly in chainbangerz disc golf shop and on our Discovering Open Spaces website as a major contributor.If you dont have the funds but have the energy and time to invest you can help maintain that hole in exchange of paying for it. This will give you a sense of ownership to the course,and will relieve me of any personal debt.So if you have a favorite hole and want to make it dialed out within my guidelines as per city of sea-tac contractual agreement, then by all means we will encourage this.
In the coming weeks we will have a place here online to securely adopt-a-hole or you can always come in the shop to pay and discuss specifics for what you want your slab to say and what hole you want to adopt.

We (Chainbangers Disc Golf Club) will be hosting monthly c-tier sanctioned tournaments at sea-tac disc golf course to help raise funds for the club as well as for any improvements needed for that course. We should be able to launch these as soon as March.
I think this is a great step forward. Anytime in the past, whenever people have suggested any kind of change, the answer has always been "Yeah that'll happen, as soon as somebody buys Herm out." It'd always been a hypothetical, but now Keith has stepped up and made it happen. The future looks bright.

Michael, I know you've done a lot of work out there, and we're all thankful for that. Please keep in mind that although Thomas is a vocal member of the club, he's not a spokesman for the club.

Thomas, please stop making me explain this to people.
