Chainbangerz Invitational - Sunday, June 27th - Washington Events

cefire · #1 June 13th, 2010, 11:06 PM

Here is the official post yo!

Thomas and I will be hosting a Chainbangerz Invitational tournament on Sunday, June 27th.

What: PDGA C-Tier "Charity Endowment" for the Chainbangerz club

Where: AM round of 18 @ Silver Lake
PM round of 18 @ Arlington (with 1 temp hole)

When: Check in at Silver Lake by 9:30am, we should be up and starting golf by 10 at the latest

Cost: $4.00!!! (yes, 4 bucks for a PDGA event w/ratings

)

Who: Event is restricted to 36 players maximum. Only Chainbangerz club members will be able to register during the early registration period until Friday, June 18th.

THEN, on Friday starting at 5pm, I will start taking registrations from those who plan to attend a workparty @ Arlington on Sunday, June 20th. This will all be done on a first-come first serve basis - I will note on Friday how many Chainbangerz members have signed up and how many spots are left for the workparty so you know if you should show up on Sunday (everyone is welcome to show up anyway

). Also remember that you can add these hours to your running total to get really nice discounts at the Chainbangerz shop.

To sign up: Just email or PM me your Chainbangerz number starting at 5pm tomorrow.

Huh? As with many of our recent events, this is a day to have fun playing golf without breaking the bank, get a rating, help out the course/club at the same time, and "represent all that is good and fun about disc golf to the best of our abilities"!

FAQ:

1. Will I win vast quantities of green paper or new frisbees for winning this event?
No, in fact winning this event will only earn you the respect and admiration of your peers, nothing more. We will some few side games set up at Arlington after the tournament for you to win prizes sponsored by our boys at Chainbangerz disc golf shop.

2. Can I get a refund?
Yes, refunds for Chainbangerz members will be given out until Saturday, June 19th as we will have to fill the remaining spots at the workparty the following day. Please remember that $4 doesn't even get you 2 coffees at Starbucks

Refunds for those who show up to the work party (both early registrants & late, members & nonmembers) will be given in full at any time - you put in work, you've earned it.

3. Since we aren't playing for the big bucks, can I (take mulligans/step past my mini/kick my bag in uncontrolled rage)?
PDGA rules my friend, you do the crime, you do the time.

If you have any other questions, I can drop them right in here!

The main work that needs to be done at the work party at Arlington:

Barking: The main trails and tee pads, this is the biggest need and will take the most time
Litter: There are garbage cans on many holes now but still litter might be an issue
Hole 17(18): There is a downed tree wedged into another across the fairway; chainsaw anyone?
Fairways: There are small sticks in the fairways that could be cleared
Field holes: Probably need to be weed wacked, though Jub might do this

Remember NO unauthorized maintenance please. I look forward to the tournament and work party, see you all then!

JR Stengele · #4 June 15th, 2010, 10:13 AM

Very Nice fellas!
See you there.

I have a good chain saw and I can remove the tree on hole 18 if the city is cool with me doing that. Sometimes the city parks frown on people using the saws in their parks for liability reasons.

I will have to join Chainbangerz to ensure I get into this.

Though this is not a big payout event, I look forward to collecting big payouts in sidebets against John Stengele and Thomas. Please bring cash!

JR Stengele · #6 June 15th, 2010, 07:59 PM

Oh my!

Forget about the tree on 18 and weed wacking as the city will not allow for this. There still will be enough work for everyone, don't worry!

What time is the work party convening on sunday.

cefire · #10 June 16th, 2010, 07:18 PM

The work party will convene at 10am to 1pm!

sillybizz · #11 June 18th, 2010, 03:14 PM

Don Anderson (drkstr) can't make it Sunday due to Father's Day and other obligations but will be out today or tomorrow to do some barking on his own; he also attended the Silver Lake work party and will be playing the tournament as well. Don does a lot for the local courses and is a nice guy so I thought I would say a special thank you to Don.

cefire · #12 June 18th, 2010, 06:21 PM

Yeah, I understand it is a tough day to get off and totally my fault due to limited time before I'm vacationing. Anyone who wants to do some sort of course project can definitely do so (make sure it is approved by the relevant course manager!) and get entry into the tourney.

drkstr · #13 June 18th, 2010, 08:01 PM

"I would say a special thank you to Don." ~

Thank yee kindly Thomas. I did make it out this afternoon and got bark in the tees of 18, 17, 16, 15, 14, 12, 11, 10, 9 and 8 ~ wasn't sure what the plan is for #13. I also did some branch, limbs and sticks duty on the fairway for #17. Beautiful day out there this afternoon. After barking I played 8 through 18 ~ 2 Birdies and 2 Bogies.

The course is looking good ~ folks are using the new trash cans ~ I didn't see any litter to pick up on the holes I worked on besides a few bottle caps and cancer butts.

Looking forward to this event. Thank you Chainbangerz, Andrew and Thomas.

Cajun · #14 June 18th, 2010, 11:25 PM

Thank you Don for all your hard work at Arlington

Did you ever find your lightweight Tee-rex???

If not I may have an extra you're welcome to.

cefire · #15 June 19th, 2010, 12:14 AM

Well, we've still got 24 spots left so plenty left for the workparty. Anyone who shows up is in, after that, anyone who helped out at the Tac with mowing is on deck

cefire · #16 June 19th, 2010, 08:30 PM

Work party @ Twin Rivers (Arlington) is tomorrow @ 10am - recent reports are that the course is already in good/great shape! I'm sure there is still a bunch we can do though, if you have them, wheelbarrows, rakes, shovels, and trash cans will be good.

The plan is to bark some fairways and tees, clean up sticks and debris in the fairways, and maybe chop a few thorny things...

sillybizz · #17 June 19th, 2010, 08:43 PM

I'm bringing a wheelbarrow, a rake and a couple of shovels.

Work party went well even in the rain and muck! We barked a whole bunch of teepads and made the walk to and down the fairway on hole 16 look really nice.

The usual suspects were all there along with a couple of players added to the entry, thanks to Kelly, Tom, Sheila, Janice, Bill, Cindi, Wayne, Jesse, April, and myself. We notched a 3 way round of triples afterwards through the rain...good times

cefire · #20 June 20th, 2010, 11:15 PM

FYI - All of the attendees from the recent take back the Tac work party and the recent Terrace teepad installation party (just played the new ones yesterday!!!) are also 'invited' to the Chainbangerz PDGA tournament next sunday even if you aren't members. Just be sure to let me know beforehand that you will be attending.
