I'll soon have a Logo from ZAM designs (http://www.zamdesign.com/) and am in the process of getting a website up along with getting the event up on TitleDisc (http://www.titledisc.com/) so people can start signing up.

This is going to be a fun event to raise awareness and funds for Cancer prevention and treatment. This one is for the Prostate Cancer Foundation (http://www.prostatecancerfoundation.org/), since I'm just over 1 year free of prostate cancer. I will be running one in October in McKinney, TX.

Hope to see ya there at one of these events:cool:

Just realized the dates Ray and I will be at Okie Dubs, but let me know if I can help in any way

Adam,

Any help before the events will be appreciated:)

ZAM Design has come through with a great 1st Design for the Discing For A Cure events. Wow it's so simple I never would have thought of it myself:o Thanks Zach!

Things are moving along. You can now register for the event on TitleDISC.com (http://titledisc.com/node/1880):cool:

Looks like we already have some sponsors for the events!

Gordo M-K
Waterloo Disc Golf Club (http://www.austindiscgolf.org) and
Sun King Disc Sports (http://www.SunKingDiscs.com)

Many thanks go out to these sponsors.

Gordo, a great person, a fun doubles partner, and one who has done so much for the sport in the last 15++ years.

Waterloo does so many things for the sport in the Central Texas and other places too.

When you get a chance, shop at Sun King Disc Sports online:cool:

Working on some additional sponsors for CTPs and possibly a raffle.

Got the order off for CFRs and some other nice discs.:cool:

Looks like there are more people to thank for their kind support of this event.

US Automatic cash sponsorship "Thanks Tom"
Don O'Connell

They are added to the list:
Gordon M-K
Waterloo Disc Golf Club and
Sun King Disc Sports

Many Thanks to these people and groups for their support:cool:

Funkytown Flyers
Try Tone Records

Thanks go out to more sponsors!

Looks like another sponsor has joined in this event:

The Personal Advisors of Ameriprise Financial
Michael DeGroat & Jenny Funderburk

Looks like they will set up a table at the event, so check them out and if you need help with your financial planning give them a try. I have!:cool:

Ray,

Sorry that I didn't get anything to you last weekend. Trying to get sponsorship while I'm running a tournament isn't the best plan of action:)

What about offering two CTP prizes of $25 each available from DynamicDiscs.com? They would just need to email or call me with what they want and we'd get it out right away. Or I could do a dry-fit shirt for the winners of each amateur division. If it is too late to get something worked up that's fine. I am hosting back to back B-Tiers this weekend so things haven't slowed down here.

I'll soon have a Logo from ZAM designs (http://www.zamdesign.com/) :


that guy rules! i wish he did all tourney stamps...

Woops! That was meant to be a private message to Ray and not posted on the thread. Hope everything goes well this weekend in Lewisville!

The tournament fund raisers and other stamped discs are do in today. Can hardly wait!

Thanks Dynamic Discs!

CTP sponsors during the round!

I cannot wait to play your tournament this weekend! Hope more ladies are able to show up :)

Love the Lake course!!!!

Deidre

I can't wait to get this event started:)

Friday afternoon is the Doubles!

Late registration will be Saturday morning until the 8:30 am Players meeting.

After the round there will be three CTP holes to throw at for $2 per throw or 3 throws for $5. All of this money will go to the Prostate Cancer Foundation. Each basket will have merchandise valued at over $150. So aim well and get lucky:D

After that, if no aces are hit there will be a CTP throw off for that cash:cool:

Just can't wait;)

Got the CFR Starfires today They look sharp!:cool:

Also got some Pro Wraiths, Ontario Rocs and KC Rocs all Max weight or close!

I cannot wait to play your tournament this weekend! Hope more ladies are able to show up :)

Love the Lake course!!!!

Deidre

I agree Deidre. We need more Ladies at this event, even if it's for the PCF!

To try and get more to show up, the event will cover all Ladies Lunches, PDGA fees and they will have their own CTP during each round! There will be CTPs each round for everyone, but there will be a specific ladies CTP!:cool:

Come on Ladies and Play!

Ray, will you be taking registration Saturday morning? Not sure I can make it yet but if I can I'll sure be there.

You are the man, ray!!!

The best way to register for this event is Titledisc.com (http://www.titledisc.com)

I will also be accepting registrations tonight before and after the McKinney mini and of course this Friday afternoon at the Lake Park were doubles will be right after my meeting with Teddy Gibbs, the Parks Super, appprox 1:30pm. Teddy deserves a big hand for all he does for Disc Golf in Lewisville!:cool:

Had a long day, had great staff help get this up and running. The Eagle Scout project on Hole #2 was unexpected, but a different approach and we moved the hole with Josh's portable. Thanks everyone for being patient as we worked through the details.
