3 Rivers Disc Golf Club

First off, there will be no league this weekend. Second, there is a charity fundraiser tournament @ UNC on the 11th. Third, club meetings are held on the 2nd Monday of each month @ Chili's on W. 10th @ 6pm. Have a great holiday!

Just a reminder, the next club meeting is this Monday. Come on down to the Chilis on west 10th st at 6pm.

Again, I am still planning on being away this weekend. Hope everything goes well, call me if you need help. 970-310-3555.

Club meetings will be held on the 2nd Monday of each month. Our designated meeting place is the Chili's restaurant on W. 10th st. in Greeley. Everyone is welcome(and encouraged) to attend. In order for us to provide what you would like, your input and participation is required. Post on the board or give me a call directly if you will be available, thank you. ~ Chris.

Attention! Starting immediately, 3 Rivers will be holding a $5 random draw doubles event every Tuesday night @ Epple Park. Ryan Trevithick will be hosting the round each week starting tomorrow @ 6pm. Additionally, a $1 ace pool will be available and as always course donations will be accepted. See you there!!

Since people aren't noticing my posts in the "talk" section I will try to post them here. There will be a club meeting @ Chili's on 10th street @ 6pm on Monday, July 19th. We have a lot to discuss, so bring your ideas and concerns to the table. Thank you.

Here are the final scores for the 3 Rivers crew down in Brighton today. Two rounds on 20 holes were played during the 3rd annual Brighton Legacy Foundation Tournament.

We've been approved for concrete tees @ Epple. It's been a long time coming and soon it will be a reality. If you have a fundraising idea feel free to message me or talk to me next time you're out. Also, the Oxbow course will be in need of installation help so stay tuned for work day updates.

The new pin placements at Epple Park will be ready for play by as early as this weekend!!

Six new pin placements were added today @ Epple Park. Thanks to Mark and Ronnie for their help. Anyone else down to kick some holes in the ground?

The Epple Park modification project is coming to fruition!! Holes will be drilled as early as next week, Oct. 26th. Two additional pin placements will be added to each hole, bringing the total number of placements to 18. If you are willing to help out with the installation of this project, please contact Chris Thomas @ 970-310-3555.

Although construction projects and high water levels threatened to deem the course somewhat unplayable, some great people came together and made things happen. A slight chill in the air welcomed the players to the practice area early on tournament day. Soon enough, everyone was shedding layers as the sun started to heat things up. A decent showing of 24 golfers grouped up and got ready to hike out to their starting positions. It was quite a tight race after the first round of play, leaving most players optimistic about their afternoon chances.
With two extra holes playing really long and the pond filled to the brim, several players came up short. Many players took aim and came extremely close to pocketing the ace pool, Chris Thomas hit the bucket and Mike Gomez screamed just past on #16! However, Congratulations to Nick Usher on his first ace, and a victory in the Recreational division as well, nice work! Bill Mastre and Todd Krauss headed for a sudden-death playoff where Todd remained unbeaten vs. Bill. Chris Thomas nearly doubled-up the advanced division with a minus 17 on the scoreboard, nice shooting Chris.
All in all, everyone sent in great reviews on the days action. Thank you to all who played a role in and/or attended the event. Next up is the Summer League Player's Tournament...

Congratulations to Eric Lind, who won 3 Rivers Disc Golf Club's first annual Summer League Tournament. He looked like a man on a mission shooting the course record and his personal best on the same day! This year's tournament was held at the River Ranch Disc Golf Course and the weather could not have been better. Hopefully mother nature will cooperate just as well next year. With plenty of good spirited competition to go around, I'm confident this event will be a club favorite for years to come. Thanks to all who participated.
