With temperatures soaring into the 60s under sunny skies, and generally light winds, it was a great day for a disc golf tournament at Rosedale Park. Good spirits and sportsmanship abounded at the 10th version of the Rosedale Amateur Championships where seven people earned championship titles, including four women, five junior boys, and for the first time, a junior girl. Over half the field won something. For the most part, the divisions were competitive. Erik Kolkmeier was the big cash winner on the day, collecting the ace pool of $80 for acing #1 during the second round. Eric, along with Bill Neenan, Bill Wade, Jared Arnold, and Leslie Palmer each won a 12 pack of Boulevard Pale Ale in the second annual closest-to-the-beer contest.

Thanks for everyone who played. There was absolutely no negativity all day, which is kind of rare when people gather to compete. A big thanks to Tammy Morrison who, besides helping with scoring and getting things organized, was there all day, which allowed me to play in this event for the first time. Also thanks goes to Sean Gibson for moving the baskets between rounds, John Chapman for helping with scoring, and Dan Coffman for keeping things moving during the first round and getting things started the second round.

While things did go really well, I definitely bogeyed in not explaining the drop zone on #8 for round 1, and not having some kind of CTP for the junior divisions. I apologize for these oversights.

Disc Golf World ran four events this year: the Swope Spring Renewal, the H2 Open, the Big O, and the RAC. It's our intention to be back with these events next year, and are thinking about adding  events at Cliff Drive and Wyco, connecting all the events by creating the Disc Golf World Series of Kansas City. Stay tuned!

Partnering with the KCFDC, the next event for DGW is the Ice Bowl on January 28. This is the event that cannot be postponed because of weather, and there are no wimps or whiners allowed, nor any excuses for not showing up. As the Ice Bowl is our charity fundraiser, we're hoping to find at least one "big-ticket" item to spice up the closest-to-the-pin contest. If you're interested in helping out with the Ice Bowl, please let me know.
