Hello Everyone, I am going to run a Mini Tournament sometime within a month so I can raise some money for the cost of medical bills for my Mother In-Law (Staceys' Mother). She has been diagnosed with breast cancer. We went to the doctor's office today to find out what stage the cancer is in and Thank God we caught this early. She still needs to have surgery, radiation and possibly chemotherapy done. I want to maybe set up some temporary holes at San Pedro Park if possible and play a mini there but am not sure if I would need to contact the city for this? If this were to happen at San Pedro Park I would need some baskets from you all to use that day. If I cannot make this mini happen there then it will be at Live Oak or Universal City. All money for entry fees ($10-20 a person) will be donated to my Mother In-Law Terri Gilbert. I will have some CTP's to give away and will also have an Ace Pot and if it is not hit during play, there will be a CTP for it. I am thinking of having some trophies made for the top three places. If anyone would like to make a donation via Paypal, my email address is opereida@satx.rr.com. Please state this is for Breast Cancer. More to come (date, time, etc:). Thanks to all and God Bless!!!

I'm sorry to hear that this happened to Terri. :( She has always been great.I know this is a rough time,but staying close will get all of us through it.If you need any help you know I'm down.

I'll be there to support the cause!! I have a basket for use as well.

I am sooo sorry Stacey and Bird.... :( You can count on Jimbob and I for the tourney and baskets we can bring out two, please let me know if I can do anything to help out with the tourney.

Stacey your mom will be in my prayers.....

i have a dga mach lite you can use. if the san pedro park doesn't work out why not mclaine. people are itching to play this course. it might draw more people. either way i'm in.

I was also thinking to have it there but was not aware all baskets are in. Are they? If so i will have it there for sure. Thanks everyone...

That would be a great course for this!! I guess I better go out and check the rest of this course out... Only played 1-3 :D

Pain-stakingly played McClain last week and hit 1 of 18 fairways, so I do believe all the baskets are in.

Sorry about the news. I will try to make it, to support the charity.

Yes all the baskets are in. 15 is the only fairway that has yet to be cleared but you can make an alternate place to use the basket there. Stacey sorry to hear about your mom. Get well wishes for her. If you guys play at san pedro i have two baskets as well.

sad news indeed, i will try to make this where ever you hold it.

I will be thereto play and if you have a raffle, I have a few collectables.

I will be thereto play and if you have a raffle, I have a few collectables.



I will have a raffle if I can get enough items together. Maybe I will throw in an awesome 1st Run Gator Purple with Rainbow Foil Stamp (She's a Beauty!!!). I am trying to select a date for this and almost every weekend there is a tourney in Texas. It is only going to get worse in March so I am leaning towards next Saturday 2-10-07. I know Z-Boaz is going on but I didn't see any Live Oakers signed up. Would this be a good date? I will make a decision by the weekend.

Oh, and I just wanted to say a little about the kind of person Terri is. She actually found out she had cancer last Friday and did not want to tell us at that time because she knew we were playing the Ice Bowl. She waited until Sunday evening after we had all our fun. What a Great person. She really cares about her kids and puts them before her. Thank You All, Again!!!

i'll be there. i might also have some raffle items to donate if you are going to have it. let me know.

Everyone..........thank you! It's absolutley amazing to see how people have come together in time of need. The prayers alone have helped because there is a force greater than us and I believe God is watching over all of us.

Theresa Paez Garcia-Gilbert (my mommy) is the strongest most courageous person I know. Terri has always gone above and beyond for her family, friends, and whoever crosses her path. I'm sure she can't wait to meet you.

There are a few things she loves the most in life (aside from family & friends) and that's tennis........tennis.........and tennis!!! :)She is one of the highest ranked players in her division (4.0)and has always shown me that hard work pays off (Oh, and always be kind). I'm counting on that attitude to get her through this journey. Her favorite color is yellow so, I'm guessing her and tennis were made for eachother. But, after this journey, I believe PINK will be her next favorite color. God be with you mom and I hope for a fast recovery..............where the tennis courts will be waiting for you. I think we can all relate on loving a sport so, let's sport our way through this and Fight Breast Cancer together.

I think Bird is leaning towards Feb 10th, which sounds good. With this being soon, I could use help on ideas and spreading the word. THANKS DISCGOLFERS...YOU ALL ARE AWESOME!!!

Peace & Love,
Stacey Pereida

I'm pretty sure we could get a few guys from San Marcos to come donate some money for a good cause and good golf!!! :D

OK, a raffle sounds like a great fundraising idea. If you have any items you would like to donate for this cause, Please contact me. I will be at the Nani Night Mini on Saturday and the UC Mini on Sunday. Thanks.... :)

Disc Golf Fundraiser Mini Tournament To Help Fight Breast Cancer

Where: Bryan McClain Park (San Antonio)

When: Saturday February 10, 2007

Time: Sign Up Before 9:30 A.M, Tee Off Shortly After

Cost: All Players $10.00 Each Optional Ace Pot $3.00 (No Payout), All proceeds will go towards Terri Gilberts' Breast Cancer Medical Expenses.

All players will play one 18 Hole Round and there will be CTP's, Ace Pot and Raffle items for $1.00 a chance. I want to give something back to the players so I will try to make sure everyone leaves with a little something. I don't think there has been a Mini played at McClain Park yet so I want someone to set the course record and I will pay that person $20.00 out of my pocket. :eek: :) We are going to try and have Stacey's Mom come out and watch some Great Disc Golf. If No Aces are hit during play we will have a CTP for the money. We will have two divisions, Open and Am. I'm sure I left something out and will add if needed here. If you have any ideas or suggestions please let me know. Sorry for such short notice but I know how busy the PDGA Tour is in Texas the next couple of month's and I felt this was the best date. Help spread the word to those without computers (C'mon it's the year 2007). Thanks...

Today was my first time playing McClain. Will be a really nice course once it gets trampled enough and some more clearing done. I am going to put some temp tee signs up and maybe spray paint arrows pointing to the next hole because the way it is now, you WILL get lost.

Still going to happen Rain or Shine, Hot or Cold!!! Forecast shows 10% chance of rain and low of 42 and high of 57 (chilly but not freezing) light 7-9 mph winds. Shawn Low has just matched my $20 for the lowest score which makes it $40 for the winner :) Thanks Shawn ;)

Staceys' Mom will be out there right around when we are finishing up the round. Come one, come all!!! The course looks really good, Thanks Everyone for helping out!!! See you tomorrow....

Played late Friday evening (back 9 anyway), and the course is looking real nice. I can see that where a little more clearing is in order, but this is definitely ready for a mini (bring your stomping shoes). See everyone there!

PS - Brian, I'll have the CD I promised you way back when with the Photoshop files for LOSO artwork.

I want to Thank You All for showing up to the mini today. I wish it could have been a little warmer but at least the wind was not too bad and it was not raining. A total of 24 players showed up to raise $822.00 (I added money donated from CTP Winner, Overall Winner and Donations):eek: to help battle breast cancer. You all do not know how Thankful we are to have such a Great Disc Golf Family here and just all around caring people. The raffle itself raised $172.00 and I want to again Thank all individuals who donated those nice items. :) I was surprised when Stacey's name was called out for the mini basket because we agreed not to purchase any raffle tickets. Come to find out my brother Ernie bought one ticket for her and one for Laura K. Raffle Winners that were not present were Jeff McClanahan (Bug Man) and RT Evans. I have RT's items and will get them to you next time I see you. Jerry Lively has Jeff's item. Thanks Laura for helping me with this event, I did not have a chance to tell you that.

Laura, I may need an assistant TD for the 2009 Australian Open, interested? I will also have to check on the divisions here to see if we have ones low enough for Jimbob. :D

it was a great time and i am glad i could contribute to a worthy cause. i wish all the best.

You like that. You know Jack Frost and I don't get along. I know your a day ahead and all with your 80* weather but the season hasn't started here yet you Abo, so take it easy on my slup, I still have to tryout for World Dubs. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif You'd love the looks on this course, 'lil premitive for you tho/for now, it gonna be nice. Already coming together, Shawn done good. ;) By the way, your post are coming in upsidedown, but Yeah, Geoff's a bagger, some things never change. :)

Orlando - Good golf for a good cause - nice work. Maybe a yearly fundraiser is in order? :D

Chris - Believe me, you weren't the first one to say that today. In my defense, I just showed up and gave Laura my money. :p

Jimbob - Bite me :o:DWhy isn't anyone calling out Jim?

Cuz he isnt in denial like others we all know :o:D

denial is a river in egypt.

does every thread have to turn into a chinger trash talking thread? i bet there are enough of those already.

Chris - Believe me, you weren't the first one to say that today. In my defense, I just showed up and gave Laura my money. :p



Hey Geoff, don't you play INT. ? Isn't that AM status? He's right I put him on the AM list.... I thought that he was an AM, when did you turn Pro? :D :D:p :D:D

Let me be the first to say...BAGGER to Geoffrey.

Geoffery dont get bent because of being called a BAGGER it's just a term of emdearment :o:D

Hey Geof,
The secret is to lose just enough, then you don't get called a bagger. Of course I don't have any trouble doing that.. :)

call me what you will, i still suck at this game. i suck most at sanctioned events. maybe victoria will be different.

boo hoo

does every thread have to turn into a gatorputt trash talking thread? i bet there are enough of those already. :mad::D

Jokin or Pokin just QUIT your SH*T :mad::D
There's is enough smack threads already :D

Dear Bird & Cat -

I can't find the words to express how grateful I am for all your efforts and committment to helping Dad & I during this very difficult time. The disc golf tournament was beyond what I expected. The money will come in handy since I'm having MD appointments every week now. Most of all I'm impressed with the friends you have in the disc golf community. These are such good people and I'm proud you have friends and competitors with hearts the size of TEXAS!

Please forward this message of thanks to all those who participated:

To each one of you who participated, donated your valuables and donated your time, you have my deepest gratitude. You have truly touched my heart. I will never forget that day.

No matter what the out come of my journey, I am comforted in knowing my kids, Bird and Cat will be "okay" because they have good, loving, caring friends like you. Knowing that, was the best gift from that day.

With weekly doctor and diagnostic appointments your generosity will help so much. Thank you!

Sincerely,
Terri Garcia-Gilbert (Stacey & Bird's Mom)
