Cliff Drive / T-pads

« on: May 22, 2006, 12:08:48 PM »

I was wondering if any T-pads had been built at Cliff Drive yet? If not, is there a plan to do so?

I'll be over there for some leagues this summer when I am fully recovered.

General Banter / summer leagues

« on: April 03, 2006, 12:08:02 PM »

I was curious as to why Cliff Drive league is on Monday, when there is already a league on Monday in Olathe, and one at Rosedale for new players? It seems to me that Friday would have been a better day of the week for the Cliff Drive league.

Another question I had too; is the Cliff Drive league $5 with $1.50 going to the club just as the other KCFDC leagues are? I plan on attending some this summer and wondered about the format and payout.  

Come out to olathe tonight to kick off the summer league season. According to Bob the ACE fund is well over $500.

Prairie Center / 02-06-06 GLOW League

« on: February 07, 2006, 10:27:43 AM »

9 folks that don't let a little chilly weather or darkness stop them from playing some DG were out for a round last night. It was frosty, but the wind was non-existent. In fact, I can not remember a calmer round at Prairie Center.
 We even had some added excitement when some idiot decided to go four wheelin out in the middle of the well manicured soccer fields. Deano called the police while the fool was doing it, and I attempted to get his tag number as he sped out of the park, but he got away. At least he didn't run over any baskets.

Tom Butler and Heberto Villareal shooting 42 for $30
Dan Coffman and Andy Lewis shooting 50 for $15 (won playoff)
Arturro Villareal and John Raich shooting 50
Bob Hayett and Dan Forster shooting 53
Dean Uhlman and Cali Deano shooting 58

We have 7 more Monday night GLOW rounds left. I have lights for sale ($2) each, and our ACE fund is up to $126, so come on out and have some fun.

Prairie Center / Groundhog Day

« on: January 31, 2006, 10:41:30 AM »

The Olathe crew, or at least I, am heading out this evening for a round of dg.... maybe skins or best score or both. Come on out and join in the fun. Should be around 55 and South winds at 5 mph. I are planning on starting around 5:15-5:45.

And, since it's Ground Hog Day, I thought I would post a few words of reflection....

"When Chekhov saw the long winter, he saw a winter bleak and dark and bereft of hope. Yet we know that winter is just another step in the cycle of life. But standing here among the people of Punxsutawney, or WW GLOW, Olathe GLOW, either of our Saturday Leagues, or the masses at the Ice bowl, and basking in the of warmth of their hearths and hearts, I couldn't imagine a better fate than a long and lustrous winter."

peace
