Thought that I would give an update. Most of the holes at Thomas were drilled yesterday and we are going to start putting in the concrete and sleeves tonight. We've put in a ton of man hours and it's starting to pay off. Austin, Mace, and Phil along with a few others have been complete workhorses getting this course closer to being a reality and it shouldn't be much longer before we are choppin wood with plastic instead of axes!

We got 8 sleeves put in tonight! Andy, Harv, Phil, Randy, and Austin were machines! Hopefully we can get the rest in tomorrow night.

All but one sleeve is in. We are waiting on some dirt work to be finished.

Tonight at 5:30 we will finish cleaning tee pads and branches. Tomorrow we will put in the front nine baskets (9 locks still on order).

Saturday I am going to set a course record (at least half of it). Might do some trimming as well if anyone else wants to help.

You said it Smitty! Well, you did. Is it gays only, gays appreciated, or gays are target practice?

Are you guys going to announce plans for the debut mini on Sunday?

We are waiting on nine locks. The city has ordered them, but they are not here yet. Only the 9 holes in the front of the park are installed. I think the plan is to have a mini the day after the Elks tournament.

I think we should wait until everything is in. But, I will show up there on Sunday if that is what everyone wants.

Thats simply the best name for a disc golf hole that I've ever had the privilege of hearing.
Why thank you. I'll try to come up with some more gems.

I thought you said 3's company was the best name of all time?
I did, but I was wrong!
