Juice Box

In case anyone is interested: There is a Disc Golf Live television program that has been on CableOne Channel 12 on the last 2 Tuesdays at 11:00AM for one hour.

Hey everyone, I recently won an Innova Traveler basket at the state tournament and am looking to sell it (I already have a basket is why..). If you're at all interested please send a shout out to me through email or call me. My email and number is posted above.

Thank you.

The Bag Tag financial report:

We had 35 disc golfers in the league, each paid $20 to get a tag. We had two people who lost their tag and needed to pay $5 to get a new one (they never received it, my bad. Talk to me if you want it over the winter).

That equates to this: (35 x $20) + (2 x $5) = $710 total for bag tag.

The breakdown: $5 for weekly bag tag prizes, $5 for end-of-year bag tag prizes, $5 for community disc golf action, $5 for the Floodplain Open:

$175 for each.

Weekly Prizes: Just in the Backyard Brawl giveaways alone, there were $90 worth of prizes. Then there was the $20 gas card that Ole won, the 40 discs that I gave away. Yeah, 40 discs throughout the year. Then there were t-shirts, dri-fits, food at my parent's place, and others that I know i am forgetting. There was definitely $175 worth of prizes given (probably double that).

End-of-year: $20 ace that Ole got, 6 sets of dics (CFR Roc and Destroyer/Xcalibur), a couple of free Bag Tag Leagues for next year (I remember Dewey, please remind me of the other one), and a tournament sponsor package for the person who held the #1 spot in Bag Tag for the majority of the year (Two B-Tier Equivalent tournaments paid for, approx. value at $160).

Community: At first, we were going to give Moorhead $200, but Andrew Zoller of Rock30 games stepped up and is giving that whole donation. Then I stepped up and gave 1 basket from Frolfware, as well as 1 basket from the FM Disc Golf Community, constituting our $200 donation. If that offends you, let me know, but I think a basket is a great way to show our support.

Floodplain Open: What Floodplain Open you ask? It didn't happen. Therefore, the money gathered for the FPO will be held over into next year. Also, the extra $10 will be added to this purse. It is nice knowing that we have at least $185 in sponsorship cash FPO 2010r.

If you have any money questions, let me know and I will answer them right away.

I also forgot to mention that Bag Tags are now for sale at Rock30 Games. I will no longer be selling them myself. This is good for all parties. Hopefully this will clear up any confusion on bag tag numbers.

If you plan on coming to Bag Tag League, please make sure you purchase a Bag Tag from Rock30 before you come. Thank you.

Edit:

In an unfortunate event, Josh Dunham had his portable DisCatcher stolen while at Rendezvous Park on Friday, May 14. It was taken while Dunham and his crew were playing the course. Ridiculous.

If you know the whereabouts of the basket or know who did it, please let Josh or me know about it.

I will supply a reward for the finding/recovery of the stolen basket.

Thanks

I have been bouncing this off of a couple of other discers and think that it would be appropriate for Bag Tag to allocate its "Support Fund" for this year into valve box covers for the baskets in Riverfront-Davy-Memorial Park. It is pretty much up to the disc golf community to keep that course on its toes. I think that the valve boxes would look nice, would be helpful for finding the sleeves in the Spring, and would deter people from stealing the baskets.

If you have any issues with it, let me know. Otherwise, I plan on picking up the valve covers on Friday to start putting some in.

I bought the valve covers and would like to put them in in the near future. The cost for the valve covers was $155. The "Community Support Fund" was only $115 (23*$5), so Frolfware picked up the rest of the cost.

Also, Frolfware is donating the signs for the course, but I need some help putting them up when they are complete. I will keep you all posted, but if we could gang up and tackle the signs like the baskets, it would be really nice and quick. Hopefully we can do it next Tuesday night or something similar. I will update that info as it happens.

Thanks again for everyone's help in putting up baskets, giving feedback, picking up, and helping in many other ways. Talk to you soon.
