Remember - it's quite a drive to Port Angeles, but it's a beautiful drive. Just be prepared for anything - wind, wetness, and other fun stuff! Don't forget your cameras! -- Oh.. STICK to the speed limits on Highway 101! The state troopers love to catch speeders!

Any effort to bring more courses to play sounds good to me. I know 2 of my brothers intend to come play and I'm going to do my best to do so as well. I will tow my basket along with me as well if I make it out.

Please do! And just as a reminder -- this is from a post on the DiscgolferR dot us under PADGA (Port Angeles Disc Golf Association).

Listen up!!! The PADGA is having our first fundrasing tournament ever hosted by the city parks and rec of Port Angeles and Nate Bell, dgolfer to the core! We are trying to raise money for the first of 18 baskets for our eventual course in Port Angeles. It will be not so serious singles tourney for most, and highly competitive for some---which one will u be? This will take place in PA @ Lincoln Park (park where u can)@10am Saturday.. SIGN IN @ ENTRANCE TO THE OLD LINCOLN PARK CAMPGROUNDS, WEST OF PARK BY BMX RACE TRACK! Our crew have spent hard earned cash on sick plastics for AM or Pro prizes so $10bucks isn't alot when u think about all the sweet prizes you could win......
This course is a rough draft so input and patience would be killer
call Nate Bell @360-809-0342 for more info.......

============
Please note the change of time for the sign up.. instead of 11 - it's 10 am. So.. do your darn-est to come out and show some support!

So far - weather forecast looks GREAT! We should be having beautiful weather - so come out and join us in the fun to help establish a new course on the Olympic Peninsula underneath the beautiful Olympic Mountains!

Nate is aiming to have a players' mtg around 10:30, but he needs as many people as possible to show up early to make that happen. Please help him out and be on time!

Many thanks to Nate and the others who have helped get this off the ground! (Sorry I don't know names, but I know you're out there, and I'm sure we'll see your faces tomorrow!!)

A few car loads of us will be taking the Edmonds /Kingston Ferry over and will be on the first on but that will get us out there around 9:30. We're bringing baskets and what not and hoped we could get over there sooner but it doesn't look that way...

Great job to everyone who showed up! Thank you! Thank you!!! We had 55 people who joined us.. We had several donations and sponsors to whom we would like to say thank you! We had lot of folks who were playing the tournament as a fun new experience - so kudos to them! You guys were great out there!

Awesome job Nate and crew. The course looked great with distances, clear directions, and even laminated teesigns! Free lunch, great weather, and lots of welcoming golfers.

A few pictures - I should have a short slideshow/video up soon. I'll post a link when it is ready.

Mystjava · #31 April 27th, 2009, 07:57 AM

I will be posting the photos I took up on Discgolfersr.us and perhaps make a link to my gallery on Picasa.... (Hugs!)

Hell yeah,

Had a blast and it was well worth the commute. Thanks to all involved in pulling it off especially the local boys who showed us around that morning. It was pretty cool to show up and know 90% of the players. Any pictures would be appreciated, left my camera in the truck.

Mystjava · #33 April 28th, 2009, 09:43 AM

Hey -- what happened.. I didn't see the bread! Oh well.. at least S'Klallam provided food for us! Thanks everyone!

Nice, I've also put up a youtube video of the very brief footage and pictures from the event. If anyone wants copy of the pictures or video - I can send them.

Sweet video, Andrew! I like the choice of the music, it really captures the positive vibe of that tourney. I particularly like the shot of me missing a putt!
