General Banter / New disc golf park grand opening June 22

« on: May 16, 2013, 07:11:06 PM »

Rose Park is having a grand opening June 22. The park is located in McLouth, Ks. McLouth is located on Hi. 16. Turn North on Union. Then West on Gertrude. Just after getting on a gravel road the parking for the course is the first left. The tee signs are at the rear of the tee area and currently has a 9 hole set up but already looking to expand to make a full 18. Don't forget the tick spray for out here. The parks department is giving full support and offering a free cook out with volunteers demonstrating the sport. I believe DD is also going to be a part of this. One of the kids I met last night just happens to be related to the Eklunds. He's a darn good player already and I think ready for tournament play. I would consider the course to be very challenging for a beginner. Your participation to help grow the sport will be greatly appreciated.
 They formed a disc golf club for the school called Disc Dogs or Dawgs not sure of their spelling. They are looking to be the first school in Kansas to form a disc golf team and ask other schools to form teams to compete with. They are getting solid response from the community and schools they are contacting. The gentleman responsible for creating all this interest is Greg Justice. I would like seeing the club offer him a plaque showing our gratitude for helping grow the sport we love so dearly.
More details to come.

I happened to call Slacker about 5:20 AM and was the 11th caller without knowing they were looking to give away passes for a screening to a movie plus the chances to win a car and a trip to see the  Rolling Stones. When asked who I was on air I said Steve Disc Golf Glover. Got my plug in for the sport.

General Banter / Kelloggs Company Picnic CTP event

« on: March 30, 2012, 11:07:44 AM »

Kelloggs has brought back the company picnic and is being held at E. H. Young Riverfront Park in Parkville,Mo. right next to Argosy Casino. The picnic is July 14th and I am asking the company to allow me to put on a CTP event as one of their attractions. This is a company only event BUT I am asking for club volunteers who are willing to help spread the good news about our sport, the club and the great things we do for the city. I hope to get club members willing to take time to help me. I have asked the club to put up a banner and looking for the club to donate the Wizards we can use for the event. I am planning on having a shorter CTP for the kids. I am getting the use of 2 portable Mach lll. All volunteers will be able to enjoy all the food and festivities offered. In years past we had a Nascar simulator, a jumpy deal for the kids, horse shoes, a miitary helicopter land letting people board and view the insides and take off, Riverside fire trucks and personnel, 2 Men and A Grill Catering, duck pond for kids, bingo, tug-o-war, face painting, pictures with Tony the Tiger and Ernie the Elf and I'm sure there is stuff I left out but I guarantee a good time. We expect upwards of about 500 people to attend but you never know how many will participate in the CTP event. The last time I did this Jack Lowe and several others in the sport came out to help and the response from the attendees went well.
I will need a definate head count at some point as they only allow those with wrist bands to enter the park. That head count can include family members of the volunteers. I will post more info when it becomes available.
