Legacy Park - Lee's Summit / Re: Grass Problem
« on: May 15, 2013, 01:09:51 PM »
Scott did call me this afternoon & advised they should of mowed it yesterday. When I told him they didn't he said it should be today then. He said they should be mowing the fairways every 2 weeks & was aware they didn't do a very good job last time.  Hopefully this keeps them on top of things but the feeling I got is its just not important to them.

Got the same information from Scott as well, spot on everything notated here.  Excellent work.  The more people that show interest in the park and the desire to make it better, the more that it should be a priority.

Remember the squeaky wheel gets the oil, but the corvette with the squeaky wheel will always get looked before the chevette, so be sure to look your best when interacting with the people that control our parks.

Excellent response though Kelly!!

Nah, I like the notion of you questioning my logic better than the acknowledgement of my ideas giving to you.

When did Pete become a little person?

I was thinking the same thing when I saw this!  Funny stuff right there.

yep, 1000, let me start with the Steelers, and the Hawkeyes for this MO transplant.  (FWIW, I am not an MU fan, or a KU Tucan Sam Fan, I hate you all equally!)  :D

I do though live in MO as such will abide by the decision to honor my home state in this battle, as such it gives me more reason to hate Blue Red states.

Yep, that covers it, I hate all states, the Blue ones and the reds one. ;D ;)

Possibly, I do have to go and grab the girls though, but they can enjoy the Blue Line with dad just as much, and probably enjoy the backlash of father daughter hatred for the other's team.. ;D

Champ Glow Roc Fund Raisers for the Wide Open have made their way to Disc Golf World.  I would appreciate everyone in here buying at least 2!   ;D

Just waiting for a west sider to put a plug in here telling us to keep it in the fairway and it wouldn't be an issue. I agree, true statement. But the count is still 1-0. And the horse is already dead, quit beatin it!

Says the man with the club in his hand.

Crutch to be exact

Way to livin' up the Legacy Forum!

What I may do then is unlock each basket as we play and then so that if people want to help it will be easier on everyone.

FWIW-

Love many in Iowa, but Becky and Kuzi have a special place in my heart.  Kuzi, not only a Leo, and Becky were actually wondering what to do with that trophy that Tank has now officially the Lion's Den Open Traveling Trophy, so the karma comes through them well!

Why does Jay look like the politician with the gold shovel in this photo?  ;D

Well....If you have a lawn mower, bring it, we need to do some mowing out there this weekend probably first before the removal of the Honeysuckle, though if we have enough people, weed wackers and mowers will do some damage.  Here goes the list.....
#1-Clean up to the SW of the Long basket area, take down trees that are already fallen in the area.  Mow around the green and area to the short pin (45-75 minutes).  Remove trash on hillside off tee, and clean/clear honeysuckle on side of hill. (On going, but about 2 hours or so)
#2-Mow the fairway areas, and up the path, and the green area (45 minutes), remove HoneySuckle behind pin to the NE if time allows (couple of hours)
#3-Mow Fairway(30 minutes), remove Honeysuckle along the cliff (About an hour), take chainsaw to the downed tree by the pad (20-30 minutes, but P&R may do this), weedwack the side of the hill where you can by the road. (20-30 minutes)
#4-Mow fairway(45-60 minutes), clean up downed trees
#5-Mow off the tee area Up to stairs (35 minutes), clear/clean trail from #4 short, remove downed tree(15 minutes), remove honeysuckle to Chestnut to allow for mowers to get in there on perm basis(couple of hours), clean up around the green to the NW, and long placement clean up. (mowing, etc, probably like 30 minutes)
#6-Big thanks to Ted Keith for knocking out some work on the rocklined fairway!  Mow the fairway(20 minutes), replace the cairn that was housed to put downed tree stuff compost to the right(15-25 minutes), remove trees that are downed/dead/broken (20-30 minutes)
#7-Clear hillside on the middle pin area with a weed wacker (20-30 minutes)
Mow up along the cliff to #8 pad that they seem to be missing (40 minutes)
#8-Mow by the tee area (15 minutes), weed wack on the side of the hill (30-45 minutes), try to remove new honeysuckle sprouts (20-30 minutes), gathering rocks to put up by teeing area so mowers will mow hillside area. (ongoing as you play) Remove dead trees Limbs by the stage area, and clean up around there.  Mow around the long placement area.  Maybe the mini course hole there as well, possibly plant some native flowers on the corners of the stage...
#10-Long placement clean up/mow,  (20 minutes)

really if we tackle some of these items, the rest of the course is in pretty good shape.  If you can't make it out there, but you can attack one of these items, please do so.  Your love and support really helps the course continue to be great.

Cliff Drive / Re: 5/13/03 Monday PDGA League at Cliff
« on: May 14, 2013, 08:48:17 AM »
What a beautiful night to play disc golf.  The weather couldn't have been much better.  The grass had been freshly cut last weekend by some attempt by a city approved contractor, it makes edward scissor hands look like a god, but we still managed to get us all out to play a good round of golf.

With 18 of us out there playing, we had a good group gathering, and with about 20 other casuals, it is nice to say that on this wonderful Monday evening, over 40 people were out playing in a park that a few years back would have been starved to see this kind of attention to it.  That being said, yet again a reminder that we will be having a work day at Cliff Drive.  Please visit the post in this forum about it, as I had planned to work on the "new holes", but we need to clean up the existing holes prior to moving forward in order to ensure that everyone enjoys the course accordingly over the summer months.  But alas, you aren't reading this to find out about when you can come in and do some much needed love to the course are you?  No, you want to know what happened out at league with all the players now don't you?  Ok enough of the suspense.  Boston Bruin's won in OT in a tremendous fashion to beat the storied franchise of the Toronto Maple Leafs, the win propels them to play the other winner of the Game 7 last night, as the Rangers of New York made mince meat of the Russian led Washington Capitals, that's correct, the RUSSIAN LED CAPITALS of WASHINGTON DC......Now if you want to see how real Hockey can be, go and look at the face plant that should have been a penalty on the hit to Ryan McDonagh’s face.  The hit was hard, but not as hard as the epic FAIL in Toronto.

In some other sports news, the Bulls continue to look as though they have been neutered as the nba played something.

Enough with the sports outside of Cliff Drive here are the leaders from your Northeast Kansas City Disc Golf League Night at Cliff Drive, brought to you by the Fine workings of the Kansas City Flying Disc Club in conjunction with the Cliff Drive Corridor Management Committee, on the land known as Kessler Park, at the Disc Golf Course of Cliff Drive at Kessler Park

Once again the Ace Fund is at $331, and we have league next week, but we will not be having it on Memorial Day.  I strongly urge you to visit Olathe, as I know that Tom typically runs the league on that night as well.  I would like to see someone of the regulars go down there and take the ace fund money and then buy Ace Beer at the NE League!  :-p
