A3Disc Ace Race

William Gilbert    December 4, 2009 at 2:08am

As noted here, on www.Discgolfscene and www.Discgolfersr.us and www.a3disc.org $3 per player was to be taken for expenses and or dot fillers.

A3 as a rule doesn't use this site, the only person I believe who has posted scores here is me. I have no idea how to post ace race results here so how could I post them??? Brooke Plantz may have posted scores here in the past as well?

A3 is not in this business to lose money so yes we made a profit on the event! $60 - $80 profit none of that ... more

A3 is not in this business to lose money so yes we made a profit on the event! $60 - $80 profit none of that money went into my pocket at all. I do not know of anybody that would do this kind of work without a way to make a profit for the club. With no Profit we cannot continue to fund our course improvements or fund the DGLO AM event. We volunteers volunteer our time in the desire that the entity A3 makes a profit at any event!

A3's board of directors has approved a reimbursement policy for staffers who volunteer at events, to cover the need for park entry fees. Those fees were deducted or expensed as shown and each event will have such expenses in the future. The deduction was for future workers not just event staff at Ace Race. Each event will absorb similar fees except DGLO and No foolin where the fees will be higher with more staff needed.

These benefits are available to all A3 volunteers who are asked or utilized at A3’s events.
Not just William Gilbert, John Ryan or Mark Piotrowski who worked at the Ace Race.

OH! I just figured it out. A 2010 Metropark Annual Pass costs $25 now. Which staff member got the sticker? That's not a bad volunteer perk....

Daemon Stahlin    December 3, 2009 at 1:59am

that is interesting, joe. from the a3 site's main page-
"Hudson Mills will not be charging Park Entry fees On Thursday or Friday the 26th and 27th. But they will still be charging the Disc Golf Pay to Play fees of $2.00 per day. "
i did not see anyone at the gate.

Why did staff need to pay park entry fees? I thought the day after Thanksgiving the park is free to all users with the eception of the p2p tags. Did the park change this policy? thanks in advance!

I think the comment on posting score was in reference to the Ace Race and that there are no formal or standard scores to post like other tournaments

william, when you say 'this site' do you mean 'discgolfscene', and when you say 'we', do you mean 'you'?


surely you don't mean a3. a3 has made use of this site to post scores from a number of tournaments including the birthday classic, the gordy matthews memorial, the summer solstice, and dglo.


either way, i would say not taking advantage of this site to post scores is a mistake. i know the players very much appreciate having scores posted on disc golf scene.

Daemon Stahlin    December 1, 2009 at 9:33pm

a3 took $258 from the players to cover costs of $181. not bad.

Chris we don't use this site to post scores.
And What scores for an Ace Race?
I sent out emails to anyone on our email list with the results for the event the day after the event.

Scott White    December 1, 2009 at 6:41am

Chris, it's an ace race. I don't think scores will ever be posted.. Drink some OG and chill dude. :)

By the way. I had a b-last out there. Thanks for running this event y'all. Maybe next time we can draw numbers before the round starts to determine the dot pot draw order? I don't know, just a suggestion to make it run a little bit smoother at the end. I liked how you could 'bribe' your way into a good group.

Chris Gee    December 1, 2009 at 5:38am

Why can't A3 get tourny scores up any sooner? It takes to long to get scores posted. Whats the hold up with A3?

Jeff Kaluk    November 28, 2009 at 7:52am

Thanks A3 for a fantastic day today. Had a blast with a good group of guys.

g lane    November 28, 2009 at 6:08am

Andrew Kaluk    November 27, 2009 at 9:55am

Please donations for the Dot Pot are going to be even more important this year with smaller entry fees less gear will be put in the dot pot from A3 as only $3 goes to the dot pot prize fund.
If you can help please do so.
Sorry Brooke i called discraft today and they told me they had a box already set up for Ace Race so i went and picked it up. didn't know you had called and made this arrangement.

Jim Daniels    November 21, 2009 at 8:10am

Brooke Plantz for governor !!

Terry Calhoun    November 21, 2009 at 3:14am

Brooke, I am also in on any ace pool side bet.

Terry Calhoun    November 21, 2009 at 12:26am

Way to GO, Brooke!

Thanks, Discraft!
