Cold Turkey IV

discglfr · Oct 27 2009, 03:27 AM

On Monday, October 26th I submitted the information for the Cold Turkey IV. It will be a PDGA C-Tier and it will be in a Milwaukee County Park. Like the previous 3 years it will be held the Saturday immediately following Thanksgiving which is November 28th this year.

After a handful of conversations with Mark "The Shark" Peterson he has decided that it is too risky for us to try and use Brown Deer Park again this year. Last year the weather was too mild and he fears if it is the same again this year we might hurt the course too much. I completely understand and respect that thought process. The last thing I like to do is tear up courses just for the sake of a single event.

Details still need to be worked out but look for us to move over to Dretzka Park and create a MODIFIED winter course. It will use many of the holes that you typically see during winter play but certainly not all 24. There isn't enough daylight to get in 2 rounds of 24. Especially when the event sells out like it did last year. More updates to come very soon but I wanted to at least announce this much.

Registrations came flying in on Tuesday, November 24th. Between mail in and online registration we more than double our participants which brings us to somewhere around 40! The weather forecast is calling for 45 and SUNNY on Saturday.

For over a month we have advertised that registration fees will increase by $10 starting on Wednesday night. I'd love to do a little relaxing on Thanksgiving so find some time to get registered on Wed and save everyone some headache!

Looking forward to a great event. Did I mention yet that we have some of the FIRST CUSTOM STAMPED STAR MAKOS in the country? Pretty sweet action for the player's pack. Sign up today using www.iRegisteredOnline.com.

See you Saturday!

Scores are posted just a few hours after the event finished. Thanks everyone for coming out to one of the nicest November days of disc golf in history!

In keeping with the Thanksgiving theme I'd like to thank you for running an on time event. We started and ended right on time. The awards ceremony was prompt. Sure is nice to get home and be able to look up the stats. Thank you for putting those in right away too. Players appreciate that.

Dan from ABC Discs put together an awesome players pack. Everything you could use at a tournament was in there. The cookies didn't make the ride home.

Thanks to all of the volunteers. A great event on a great weather day.
