Default disc golf swap meet at RCO

New idea for me, but wondering if people would be interested in trading new, slighty used, and used plastic before/after rose city open at pier????

This is a great idea which just needs a leader to implement. I have hundreds of used discs to swap. I just don't have time to organize the swap meet.

What would the leader of this swap meet do? Just announce that people should bring their used plastic to Pier before the awards ceremony so that discs can be traded amongst those that choose to bring their spare plastic?

There is also going to be a swap at the Chick Flick so if you have any lower weight plastic that is a good place to trade it.

Lead. Any good event requires direction. Otherwise, all you have is chaos.

Let's do this - right before awards on Sunday. Love it and will bring out a bunch of new/used plastic that is just collecting dust.

Gawain, I'm not trying to be obtuse, but what direction is needed? If we get together somewhere *near* where the awards will be held, and have our used plastic in tow, I can't figure out what else would need to be done. If I am missing something, please let me know. Otherwise, I figure just the congregation would happen.

I think what he means is someone to take the reigns, make an announcement before the last round so that people will remember and also announce that the swap will be starting now over at that picnic table over there. He wasn't saying that there is a lot of direction needed just someone to be a vocal about the event.

If there is one thing I can do well, its be LOUD. I guess that would make me the leader of this thing? This might be regretted by some....

It is on the list of discs to try, what weight is yours? How does it compare to that sweet 2nd first run and your blue CryZtal Buzzz?
