Hey bee chuckers! Hope all is well. Few updates:

1. Chuckin Bees with B has it's first registrant (brave soul). We learned that the registration link was not working and I was able to fix it (score!). The registration will remain open for the duration of the clinic, people can register any time. The clinic will start this Saturday, September 12, 2020 at 8 AM at Mill Brook.

2. We scheduled the Swan Harbor Social with the Swan Harbor Farm (another score!). Date = November 21, 2020. More info will follow on the scene and other places on the interwebs. If you haven't played before, you will not be disappointed. I plan on cooking food, so the registration will include a lunch option. Club members will get a $5 discount. The Social is a non-PDGA event and the proceeds benefit the Harford County Disc Golf Club. The Social is already posted on the MD Disc Golf page (I think in Facebook). You don't want to miss this event!, tell your friends! Did I just hear someone yell, "Sooooccciiiiaaalllll"....?

3. Standing Workdays at Mill Brook. As part of the Mill Brook work crew, I offer to schedule standing workdays on the second Saturday of each month , starting around 11 AM (yes, after the clinic). Anyone with me? With the fall and winter coming, we can continue with course clean up and light maintenance. We have nine benches to install on the course and we should definitely get that done. Feel free to email ([email redacted]) or call/text me (484-663-9504) if you want to chat about Mill Brook course projects.

Wow, no comments since 2018! Well, let's change that...

Hello all followers of the HarCo Disc Golf Club, may this message find you in good health and your bees flying straight down fairways!

Hello all followers of the HarCo Disc Golf Club, may this message find you in good health and your bees flying straight down fairways!

We received approval from the Churchville Rec Council to start a weekly random doubles event and we held our first event on Wednesday, July 22, 2020 @ Scarboro Hills. We had about 30 players show up and 20 finished the round (storms rolled through and the smart players headed for their cars). This week, we'll be at Mill Brook (alternate each week between the two courses). Tee time is 6 P.M. Cory Sargent is the lead for the weekly dubs event. Cost = $5 with payouts to the winning team ($3 per player; an ace pot ($1 per player); and small donation to the club ($1 per player)). Please help spread the word and let's fill the hosting course on Wednesdays!

We also received permission to teach a disc golf class, which I will lead, at the Churchville Rec Center (Level Building/Mill Brook) on Saturday mornings. The class is open to all ages and experiences, come one, come all! Class will start on Saturday, August 22 and run to Saturday, October 10. Each session will begin at 9 A.M. and end at 11 A.M..

In addition to two hours of individual instruction for eight weeks, all participants will receive a pack of three discs and a bag! Cost = $175, with proceeds benefiting the club. Discs and bags will be provided by Daddy Disc Golf (https://www.daddydiscgolf.com/). More information to follow shortly, including links to virtual registration and a flyer with the info. In the meantime, if anyone has any questions or would like to contact me, please call or text me at (484) 663-9504 or email me at [email redacted].

Thanks everyone for your time and we hope to see you soon!

Make Scarboro Great Again!!

Want to send out a little reminder about our club fundraiser at Magerks in Bel Air on Wednesday night from 5-10pm. All you have to do bring the family out for some grub and 10% of your dinner bill will go to the Scarboro Hills Disc Golf Club. http://scarborohills.com/Dinner-at-Magerks.html

Happy 4th of july clubbers! If anyone goes to Scarboro today look in the mailbox for an orange meteor! Its Mike Herbst's, he left it on hole 10 at doubles and someone fund it and mailboxed it for him, hopefully its there and someone can grab and hold it for him!

Dave Dietz    April 10, 2012 at 2:55am

Less than two weeks away and LTT is 1/2 full, which means only 20 spots left for this awesome event. Register now before it fills up. I know there is a bunch of locals that haven't signed up yet, what are you waiting for? http://www.scarborohills.com/LTT-3912.html

jerry curtis    March 28, 2012 at 6:24am

Rock homies head to the hills. Had a great time at doubles tonight. Got paired with ridge. He made an amazing second throw on 17, off a tree and into the bucket, no chains. we watched karl wit a k tear it up. 13 deuces for a 41.

I always like coming up there. Good group of throwers and a fun course. We'll be back!

BRIAN MAY    March 18, 2012 at 10:45pm

Camp Sankanac = April 7th. C-Tier event. Good times last year, Soup won Advanced. If you're on the fence about play, I recommend it. Great and challenging course. $30 registration. Lots of fun last year!

Reminder: Club Meeting tonight (Tuesday) 7 pm @ Churchville Rec

Joshua Lemly    December 14, 2011 at 3:26pm

I agree with ya, parks are free to all users. And I don't want to prevent him from running an event. My concern was along lines of if we were working on a tee pad or something would that interfere or other things along that line. Obviously our club is aware of possible work going on. But I do think that if we wanted to do something at say French Creek (example) you have spoken with someone of their club and/or checked into make sure no events have been scheduled that day. Just a courtesy and coordination thing.

BRIAN MAY    December 14, 2011 at 7:38am

Vice Hester, meant better, damn apple auto-correct....i swear the auto-correct feature uses a far eastern context, where does it come up with the words?

BRIAN MAY    December 14, 2011 at 7:35am

Word, good point. Weird situation though, but if you look at it like splitting time at sports fields your point makes a lot of sense. Hester to coordinate things like that a head of time rather than having a scheduling conflict.

Dave Dietz    December 14, 2011 at 6:54am

Oh I agree with you Brian, we never told him no. On the MD board he scheduled a bunch of dates that conflicted with other events and club activities throughout the state that ruffled a few feathers. But he has recently changed it to Lake Montebello only events. ***I do think it would be common courtesy to at least let the local club of a course know that you want to hold an event, whether it be SHDGC or any other club.

***this is not a bash against anyone or any club, just stating an opinion. ... more

***this is not a bash against anyone or any club, just stating an opinion. If the Lake Montebello guys want to hold a Tag match at Scarboro, feel free to do so. Just try not to conflict with a club event is all I ask.

BRIAN MAY    December 14, 2011 at 5:26am

public parks = free use by anyone, anytime....only caveat is whether or not they'll need to close the course for their event. if so, that's when they should coordinate with SHDGC. if they don't need to close the course, then I don't think we can tell anyone "No." It's not like there is only one pavillion and must be reserved due to limited space. one thing we need to recognize is that county parks are paid for and cared for with tax payer dollars, it's ... more

I really don't feel comfortable telling someone they need to coordinate with us before hosting an event at Scarboro. if there is a scheduling conflict, that's different, i'd argue that our event would trump anyone else's. this represents my opinion, not county policy.

I think he's just getting over excited about stuff and not realizing he's stepping on toes. The good Dr. Evil has set him on the correct path. Montebello club will now have weekly tag matches at Montebello only. There is already a monthly series (Scarboro is not included in this) for anyone that wants to play for MD tags. http://www.md-discgolf.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=3528
