once again I want remind everyone to come out on the 5&6th for the cookout (this may be a good time for everyone to meet and talk about the tee box issue)

I have a pretty detailed list of estimated costs, and a fairly good grasp of how they need to be installed. (Ben & I researched concrete installation many months ago, and called around for pricing on stone to be be spread under the pads.) I am hesitant to actually list out everything on the site because it is pretty lengthy, and not everyone is going to be interested.

I think the basic outline of what is going to happen to install a tee is this:

1 – We purchase wood, and gravel
2 – We dig the appropriate size hole for a tee box. (If we need to use heavy equipment due to rocks, Lee said that Parks and Rec would take over the digging. I suspect that much of the digging will need heavy equipment – we are Rocktown.)
3 – We install a wooden frame in the hole
4 – We spread gravel in the hole
5 – Parks and Rec pours the concrete

The costs that we would be responsible for are the wooden frames and the gravel. If we happen to raise too much money, I’m sure that Parks & Rec would apreciate us helping to pay for the concrete as well. (They don’t have the biggest budget, and it’s extremely nice of them to volunteer the concrete and some man power.)

There are also some other additions that Lee and I discussed. 1- A post next to each tee pad to hang bags from, and 2 – More trash cans throughout the disc golf course. (Maybe every 3 or 4 holes). We didn’t discuss who would purchase the trash cans, but we would be responsible for the posts.

I’m sure other things will come up, and the plan may change.

Right now I am trying to find out if anyone in our group has any type of skills/time they would like to contribute to help with the proposal, and a bit more research. I would also like to form some kind of a core group to help with the planning and execution of this project. If anyone is interested e-mail me. johnmarr1@gmail.com

I hope that helps answer a few questions. See you guys on the course.

Since we all now Ryan strips for men, we think tees.

Do you have more information on the cost/tee, park contribution/tee, or the park flat contribution?

We definitely need someone who knows what they’re doing for installation.

My question is will Ryan be stripping to raise money for tee boxes or to encourage tim’s wife to play more.

I will strip and dance on any hole on the weekends, people can tip me with money or beer and iwll donate for the tee boxes. On a more serious note, i am willing to cook for a charity dinner to raise the money! If it comes to be an idea that people are interested in, i can set something up.

Any ideas on how to get my wife (as of tomorrow) to play more disc golf are also encouraged.
