FINALLY posted the round from BRATS. My apologies as my life has been CHAOS since trying to get ready for school. Lots of details, but will not bore any of you with that.

Big thank you to Andrew Herron for donating a UV light and batteries for the pre-round CTP. I think that went to Chilly if I recall. Also to Brooke Plantz and Phil Common for donating some discs for the CTPs on the night.

Hot score on the night was a -14 by Boucher/Neal. That was followed with a -12 by Magner/Common, and a pair of -11s by Howard/Taint and Selig/Payne.

LOTS of CTPs, so many in fact that I don't have record of all of them. Congrats to all of you who took some stuff home at the end of the night. No aces were hit (although we certainly tried). We threw off for half of it at the end of the night.

We are taking a few weeks off and will return in mid/late September. New order from Governor limits out gatherings to 25 or less. Will need to read on that and see how that might apply to us on the DG course.

More details to come on restart of league. Enjoy your down time, or schedule casual rounds to play with friends. Either way, see you soon.

For the this week's round, we have been cleared to play at a private course in the Ann Arbor area. Many of you are familiar with the course called B.R.A.T.S. We are going to take this opportunity to play one of the truly unique courses in SE Michigan, which is located outside the Ann Arbor city limits.

There will be a few guidelines that we have been asked to follow by the Property owners. The biggest one is the presence of masks for check-in process and when we are getting ready to start the round. On the course there is more opportunity to socially distance. Additional guidelines and course rules will be presented at league on Wednesday.

It is a WONDERFUL course and has lots of unique holes. They really have dedicated A LOT of time and effort into building this disc golf playground.

Please message me if you are in need of the address. Since it is a private course and on their residence, I will not be posting the address here publicly. Looking forward to seeing you all on Wednesday for the last round of Spring/Summer.

Great turnout of 30 people for one of the last two rounds of the season at Bandemer. We played a B3, W3, R3 + R3, B3, W3 layout in near perfect weather. A hot score of -16 from Common/Gacioch took them to the top cashing spot. A four way tie with -11 scores between Herron/Selig, Chilson/Ritchey, Ballios/Lee & Neal/Thelen took the remaining cash spots.

18 players came out to play our last round at Mary Beth Doyle for the SPRING/SUMMER season. We played a long odd/short even pad layout with an alternate hole 3 tee pad. The alternate tee used the abandoned pad adjacent to 4 longs pad, throwing down to the hole 3 basket. A beautiful clear summer evening for disc lead to a hot score of -17 from Boucher/Chapman taking first cash! Crazy good shooting guys! Second & third cash was split evenly by Krumm/Common & Selig/Young, both with -16 scores.

Fourth week in a row with someone cashing in on the ace pool! Chilly threw one in on hole 10 from the short pad using some of that lefty magic! Congrats Chilly!

A great night for league with 20 players in attendance. Park was packed with casuals to start the round. Great to see a lot of players out playing. Course opened up a bit after our first nine.

Thank you to all who continue to support the league and WC Glow as a whole. Whether it is buying apparel, discs, or tossing in items for our CTPs, we appreciate seeing you each week and your support allows us to continue to bring opportunities to the disc golf community.

We played the RBW-WRB layout. Taking top score with a blistering -16 was Chapman/Plantz. 2nd place was the combo of Izeluk/Walker with a -13, and last cash went to Common/Taint with a -12.

It was a day yesterday. An intense storm rolled through prior to league, bringing high winds and rain to much of Lower Michigan. Course took it pretty well, there were a few down trees (hole 1 and Hole 9 in particular). Glad to see no major damage to the course occurred. More importantly, glad to see all our friends are safe. Was REALLY great to see all of you out at league last night!

Thank you for bearing with me with some new procedures are in place for checking in. Trying to make sure that we limit contact and try to do those things that will continue to keep us healthy. As someone who has small children and contact with aging parents, I am trying to be as cautious as I can. I appreciate your respect of distance as well. Saw lots of examples of good distance between people. Thank you for respecting each other.

Thank you to those that bought discs last night as well: Jay B, Scott Jones, and Richard Thelen (hope I did not miss anyone else). Much. appreciated. HUGE thanks to Thelen who graciously donated two of the discs he bought as the merchandise CTP last night.

We had 16 players in attendance last night. Taking first place was Common/Sprow with a -14. 2nd place was Ballios/Chapman with a -13, and a 3-way tie at -12 by Trombley/Boucher, Ritchey/Gacioch, and Frame/Wiedenfeld. A disc flip determined for last cash, which went to Ritchey/Gacioch.

Rain is coming down now. and will until 6:30/6:45. Forecast looks to clear up after that.

Still planning on playing league tonight, and want all of you to be safe. Will understand if you do not want to come out this evening.

We will continue to monitor conditions and refresh the radar every 10-15 min or so.

Alright, which one of you is upsetting the weather gods?

Looks like we may have a chance of some intense weather tomorrow. While I am hoping that it starts and ends early, there is a chance the league is going to be rough tomorrow.

Please take a look at the forecast/current conditions. I would rather play in rain than miss another week, however playing in a storm/lightning is not the smartest idea (although we may have done that once before as well).

Hope you all are well.

Alright, I am going to try and keep this simple (it probably will not work).

With league starting up this week, I would like us ALL to keep in mind respect for space and distance from one another. I am sure there are PLENTY of opinions about what is acceptable, I just want us all to keep in mind that not everyone may share your view or level of comfort regarding space.

A few things I would like to ask of you:

1. Payment - Electronic payments are available in the form of:
PayPal - [email redacted] (need to send F&F or cover fees)
Venmo - @Scott-Sprow
CashApp - $ScottSprow

We are keeping the $5/play, $2 ace pool, and $3 CTP options. All-in would be $10. I can accept cash on night of league, and will wear gloves and limit exposure.

2. Drawing chips: I will draw for you in your presence at registration/check-in. This is to limit exposure.

3. Space. When checking in, please allow sufficient space for everyone involved.

4. Payouts. Payouts can be done electronically or with "clean cash" for anyone concerned or if you do not have electronic payment options.

I am sure there are several more things that could be put in here, but we will go with these as the main issues with restarting of league.

Send me a message if you have any questions

Alright, lets talk about how much we miss playing together!

I miss seeing my DG friends on Wednesday nights. I have not set a start date (not officially anyway) as I kind of want to see how this thing plays out over the next few weeks. One thing is for certain is that we will need to change some things as far as check-in, play, social distance, etc.

I have some ideas in place and have reached out to some other people who run leagues to discuss how they might be making changes too. Any ideas you have please feel free to shoot me a message.

Will let you know when we have a date secured. I included BRATS as well, hoping we might be able to get out there a bit this spring as well. Terry has spent a lot of time making the course "social distance friendly."

Hope you all are well and being safe. Looking forward to seeing you all.
