scores were up on the pdga site saturday eve. 7:30 p.m. ish, could not get them on the scene till this a.m....i'm really lo-tech. weather was definitely COLD! i'm still thawing out. there was alot of work involved in this event, especially the logistics of setting up at one course and then taking it all down and setting it all up again at another course...extra holes added and all. there is no way i could have pulled this off with out the enormous help of several excellent volunteers: HUGE than ... more

scores were up on the pdga site saturday eve. 7:30 p.m. ish, could not get them on the scene till this a.m....i'm really lo-tech. weather was definitely COLD! i'm still thawing out. there was alot of work involved in this event, especially the logistics of setting up at one course and then taking it all down and setting it all up again at another course...extra holes added and all. there is no way i could have pulled this off with out the enormous help of several excellent volunteers: HUGE thanks to scott shaw, pete kwas, dustin st. aubin and eric vogelpohl!!! next year , i think we'll run the frosty's revenge just at one course...just too much work and time. speaking of frosty, for this innaugural year of the event, i went to the largest division and chose the person in last place after the 1st round...sean morgan and labeled him frosty! every person he beat in the 2nd round won him $5 of plastic! SEAN BEAT 14 PEOPLE in the 2nd round and won $70 worth of plastic!!! ...congrats sean. i'm not sure how we'll go about choosing frosty next year , but it should be fun! we collected more can goods than we've ever rec'd. and the grand total will be sent to me shortly by the seagate food bank...they were very thankful...especially that alot of you helped load it all in their truck! we raffled off over $500 worth of plastic, apparrel and g/c.....too many people won items.....i can't remember all of them but i think michalak won the most stuff! i hope everyone had a great time and i hope to see many of you at the BIG BEAVER OPEN!!!

Hey Mark. I worked my butt off during the past few days and I believe I have a good chance of making the tournament now. I'll let you know for sure tomorrow evening. I'm going to try to get out to vienna tomorrow afternoon to get some practice in, if I can. If there is still room left I think at this point I can make it, though I will call you tomorrow afternoon/evening to let you know for sure. I may not be able to be there at 7 to help with set-up but if I am there I could help out with moving ... more

I may not be able to be there at 7 to help with set-up but if I am there I could help out with moving stuff to parmelee and cleaning up at the end if you need any extra help. Give me a call though if there are no spots left though.

Eric Vogelpohl    January 28, 2010 at 11:36pm

I'm gonna try to get a round in at Vienna, hopefully around 9:30 or so tomorrow (Friday) morning. I've got to leave by 11:30 to meet the cable dood, if anyone wants to join me, that would be super awesome

Bruce Brakel    January 28, 2010 at 9:52pm

Bruce Brakel 13087 Advanced Men
Kelsey Brakel 16007 Intermediate Men

We understand that the event may be full. There were enough no-shows last time, we'll take our chances if you'll put us on the wait list.

Also, if you wanted to split off the Intermediates and Advanced Masters to play opposite courses, we could volunteer to run that. That would be a dumb idea, but we are more than qualified to run that.

MARK KRUSE    January 28, 2010 at 5:35pm

i didn't want to work that hard but due to the long wait list and a few compelling arguments i've arranged for 3 extra holes for each course....there will be no more! the 3 extra holes at vienna will be our conventional 3 holes....play 1-7, then a, 8-12, then b-c, then 13-18. all extra holes at vienna will be available tp play by 8 a.m. saturday. the extra holes at parmalee will be on the ball diamond...we'll play 1-18 then a-b-c-. the leader board and score cards will also reflect the order of play so just follow the order on the score cards. thewre are now a couple spots available!

ronald shufelt    January 28, 2010 at 4:17pm

ronald shufelt    January 28, 2010 at 4:16pm

Daemon Stahlin    January 28, 2010 at 4:03pm

MARK KRUSE    January 28, 2010 at 2:38pm

i'll be at parmalee on friday at 4 p.m. to prep the tees and then at vienna by 5:30 p.m. on friday to get the longs done for sure and possibly the ams too.....anyone interested in helping let me know 4195094028. also, thx joe and ron for the help!

Eric H    January 28, 2010 at 2:02pm
