THE
NO PROMISES NEWSLETTER
An Air Capital Disc Golf Club
(ACDC) publication
April 25, 2001
IT’S DISC GOLF
TIME!
Hey guys, I survived
another tax season and am again attempting this Newsletter thing. Still no promises
as to regularity or content but, the more news you give me, the more often I’ll
do this newsletter.
So, as I said last
time, bring on the news!

TIME TO RENEW
YOUR MEMBERSHIP!
It’s time to renew
your ACDC membership again. Even if you don’t participate or use the club benefits
much, we would encourage you to join. The more members we can go to the city with,
the more they are likely to help us financially with improving the current courses
and adding new courses.
Anyway, enclosed
is a 2001 membership application. You will notice some rule changes that will
affect you if you do not have your dues paid by May 1, 2001. The dues have remained
at $15. Please complete it and get it along with your $15 payment to Buddy or
Bob as soon as possible.
Remember, the more
members we have, the better the club will be, so invite all of your friends, enemies,
etc.
RULE CHANGE.
You will need
to have your club dues paid by April 30, 2001 in order to win 50% of the ACE FUND
money. After that date, you will be treated as a nonmember for ace fund purposes
if haven't paid your dues before you made the ace.
E-MAIL.
If you have an
E-mail address, make sure that you put it on your membership form. We can then
use E-mail instead of club nights, word-of-mouth or the post office to get news
to you more quickly and economically.
OAK PARK CHANGES.
If you haven’t
been to Oak Park lately, you need to go see it. New pin and/or tee placements
have been added to holes #1 thru #6. With these changes, the course has become
longer, more interesting and much more challenging.
We will need your
help in the near future pouring and moving tee pads. Please help improve your
club by volunteering to assist in this improvement. See Bill Paulson or Buddy
about this.
KDGA TOUR
Wichita made a
good showing at the Indian Rock tournament in Salina on April 22 & 23. Ron
Unruh won the Advanced Am division and Lewis Thompson won the Intermediate or
AM II division. Other "cashes" were Iqbal in Open; Bill Paulson in Masters;
Toby Austin in Advanced; Jeff Ring in Am II; and Brad Roeder, JR. in juniors.
In fact, most of the Wichita guys that went to that tournament cashed. Toby hit
an Ace on his last hole in the last round to get a share of the Ace fund.
Congratulations
everyone!
A KDGA schedule
has been posted at Herman Hill. You can also get the schedule online at www.networksplus.net/underpar
or at www.cheapfrisbees.com/acdc.
We encourage you
all to try out a few of these tournaments. If you need a ride, ask around, someone
will probably be glad to take a little "gas money" to endure your company.
PRIZE CHANGE
FOR AM’S.
We are going to
try out awarding "play money" or credits to AM’s instead of Discs. These
"credits" will then be used with the Club like real money to purchase
Discs, Bags, snacks, etc. The pay-out will be equal to the pay-out for the open
players. Hutchinson has had a good experience doing this with its laminated "Hutch
Bucks". Club members will then get their discs at $1.00 off the list price
where everyone else will have to pay full value.
We are
interested in your thoughts on this idea.
Also, we would
like to order the discs that you want. Please make a list of the discs that you
would like for us to order and give it to Buddy or Bob.
Ace fund at 4/24/2001
= $322
