other series: Sunny+Soggy Saturdays in Newberg, OR

[austinn]

Hey everyone, so I am wanting to put on a weekly saturday event together in Newberg, OR at hoover park during the late summer and early fall. Doubles best disc, $5 to get in, $1 into the ace pot, rest goes to payouts. Really relaxed thing, should be fun! Every saturday until late october possibly. Will happen rain or shine as long as the course isn't flooded. Wondering how many would be interested?

I would rather do it at champoeg but i hear they take baskets out when the weather turns so the course doesnt get owned... Also people who would want to play would have to get a parking permit as well ($5 for the day, $30 for the year) I have a year pass so im fine with it i just worry about others not coming because of that... Ewing becomes garbage when it rains

also tell me more of this bad ace series... seen things around the forums, sounds like a good time

They do pull 3 to 5 baskets at Champoeg, but it is still quite playable especially if we bring portables... I guess it really doesnt matter where we play as long as folks come out...

Second, We started a Disc Golf Club this year, Mid Valley Disc Sports Association (MVDSA) which is basically a club for Yamhill County, we have about 20 members and your idea to run a Saturday series may fit in with our club if you are interested in joining... We have a Tuesday Handicap Series at Wortman in McMinnville, We run a Monthly Tournament at an AWESOME Private Course in Amity every first Sunday of the month. And we run a few PDGA events throughout the year generally in support of Special Olympics. We also Run my BAD ACE Travelling Winter Handicap Series. My series picks up at teh end of October and runs through March, alternating Every Other Saturday, we play 10 different courses, and your best 5 scores count, last year we had 48 paid participants and numerous 1 day visitors. Participants pay $25 to be in the end of series payouts, and non participants can show up and play for $5 side bet for best score on the day. We play 36 holes a Saturday and this is year 5. In 4 years we have had less than 1 total hour of rain! Anyways we should get together for a casual round some time and I can help spread the word about Saturday Dubs, and fill you in on some more local events including the Bad Ace.

Timing kinda sucks as I have Tournaments the next 3 Saturdays, but I would definatley invite you out for our meeting at 11 am Sunday Septemebr 2nd to propose your idea and then at noon we will be playing 24 holes of singles and then 12 holes of doubles on a seriously bad ace private course complete with a top of the world shot to a basket on a 10' tall stump.
