Hello All,
A local Geocash enthusiast, that I met a while back while promoting disc golf, has asked me to pass along information about an upcoming event. It is called "The KC Disc Golf And Geocaching Mashup".
It is set to take place at "Lake Olathe from 8AM to 5PM on the 22nd of June". From the sounds of things it combines Disc Golf with Geochashing. It sounds like it could be pretty interesting, however I will not be able to attend.
For more information follow this link ---> http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=3f00b36c-07b6-44c5-ab30-12802e79d5ac

Anybody care to join me tomorrow morning to do a little light work at Fairmont? We need to rake some recently cut leaves of the "fairway" areas of #2 & "6. Don't worry, it won't even take an hour if we have 3 or 4 people. I'll even bring rakes. I've got enough for 5 DFOKers.
Ya know we need it clear for Tuesday night.

If anyone knows anyone who lost a set of car keys out at Fairmont let me know Me and Roberto Santiago were playing today and he found a set of keys

Found: Clouse disc on #13. Glow Innova driver of some sort. I'll get it back to you ASAP.
Found: My drive from #16 tonight. Turns out I bombed it out to the water!
Lost: My neon green, KDGA stamp, Innova Champion driver. It should be "just off the bank" on #13.
Thanks

Still league tonight? Just wondering if they pulled baskets at Tuttle yet...
I really enjoyed playing the Pre-Stampede Tuttle course tonight. The added "danger" of the temp. fences a couple weeks each year make playing it a real treat.
By the way. It was decided that starting next week, the Tuttle Tuesdays will be temporarily re-located to Fairmont Park. Yes, we will be playing the newly remodeled full 18 hole course. Stay tuned for details.

Okay so time is set 4:30pm Saturday at Tuttle Creek bring your discs to sell/trade or money to buy aka a swap meet. After its done I know most of us are gonna play a round. The more the better so spread the word
Unless I get really lazy, I'm probably going to bring my welder to fix basket #18. Hopefully a guy or two can help me steady the basket for a couple minutes...
... and I am going to bring some discs, a small DG bag, a new Innova Hat & mixed brand DG shirts too (never worn tourney payout swag).
Alan Fox June 6, 2013 at 9:38am
Say something ...Anyone want to meet out at Tuttle around noon this Saturday and do some buy/sell/and trades? Be a good time to get rid of stuff you don't throw and have a chance to get into a whole bag of stuff you will throw?
Kinda short notice for me. I've already got plans for Saturday afternoon/evening. I'll see if I can fit it in though.u00a0

Are there any good tourneys going on July 20th in Kansas?

Shout out to the Manhattan Convention and Visitors Bureau for mentioning "Frisbee Golf", aka Disc Golf, in this month's video of things to do in Manhattan.

Anybody hear how many players competed in the DD tournament in Lawrence yesterday?
Rick Petrie June 3, 2013 at 6:34am
Dynamic Discs has posted today's Little Apple Open results.
Click here --> http://www.pdga.com/tournament_results/104589
78 Total players today. I am counting (at least) 20 DFOK members.
Good job to everyone in continuing to support disc golf in our local area.
Damen W June 3, 2013 at 6:30am
is anyone else having a problem with the kdga website lately??
In addition, I at sign-in today, I heard Tom Thompson asking Smitty why it's been down. Smitty was unaware of it, but it's not like he's had much reason to look at it lately.
Looks like top page is down, but I can still visit forum page. http://kansasdiscgolf.com/forum/
It's working for me now. Sometimes it doesn't load right though.

Is there a lost disc forum for Manhattan?
I ended up leaving my brand new MVP Vector on the fairway of #9 at Warner this weekend. It has a ridiculous dyemax picture of my cat on the front, so hard to miss. :(
If anyone happens to come across it, I would gladly pay for shipping to Kansas City. Thanks.
Mr. Cossette, This is probably the best spot to post that sort of info about lost in discs in Manhattan. Hey everybody, if you find this disc just let me know & I can ship it back.
Were you in town just to play disc golf, or did something else bring you to Manhattan?

Is anyone playing in any tourneys next weekend saw they have the Doo Dah in Wichita didn't know if ne one was going to that
I haven't heard of anyone yet, but that's not saying much b/c I'm not from that part of the state. There are a bunch of DFOKers from down ther though. Some even live down there this summer (K-State students)

Just got done fixing the pole for the short placement on hole 4 at tuttle basket is in and ready to rock
Thad, Sorry we didn't organize a club workday like we did last year. One thing is for sure, nobody has to ask you to get to work.
btw they did freashly mow everything but the did not mow to the short placement on hole 5 everything else is pretty awesome...... and Thad did a good job with the mulch
Thanks to everyone that helped out. I needed to get some things done around my house today and have a little down time. See everyone in the morning.
Mark what did you need, I can get it for you. Just let me know, you can call me or text me if you still have my number.
