Default Ride needed for volunteer for Beaver State Fling

Hi all!

Recently I was in a pretty gnarly dirt bike accident where I messed up both of my knees and that has left me in a wheelchair for the time being. At the moment I am unable to drive and it has left me in quite a lurch. I am looking for a ride to the Beaver State Fling so I may be able to volunteer my services as planned before this accident. Is there anyone who would be able to give me a ride on Friday, Saturday and/or Sunday? I of course will help out on gas and any other way I can. I will have to lug around my wheelchair, pillow and some other small items. I live in Lake Oswego, near downtown. If anyone could help it would be greatly appreciated. I have been really looking forward to volunteering for this event.

Thanks in advance for reading this and your consideration!! 8)

-Melissa

Wow, sorry to hear about those knees! I would totally give you a ride, except that I will be camped at the course for the entire event. I would be surprised if you cannot find a ride, though. Who can help Melissa out?

Thanks, luckily I am expected to make a full recovery. Please somebody help, I will even throw in a batch of cookies, your choice!

Who can resist a deal like that?

What times do you need to be there? I'll be heading there bright and early Friday, not sure about Saturday and Sunday.

I am not sure what time I need to be there but I am sure they would be willing to work around my ride schedule. If I could get a ride even just for Friday that would be fantastic and much appreciated! Thanks again!

Any time you can get there would be great. If you rode with Sean you would be there in plendy of time since he is playing. If you are late so is he.

It appears the days were mixed up and I actually have a ride for Saturday. I am calling out in desperation for a ride Friday and/or Sunday. Sean, would you be able to help on Friday? I will of course throw in gas money. In addition I will also probribe you with cookies. Wait that is not all you can also throw in the fun I will bring to the ride out and the goodness you will feel by helping out another disc golfer who has been cooped up for a month and in desperate need from some fresh air. Come on you know you wanna help!

I can give you a ride tomorrow, Melissa. Leaving to get out there by 830 or so, I don't think I am going out with anyone and you don't live too far from me.

Sunday is more of an issue as I will be bringing a caddy, I think.
