Pacific NW Meetup!

[lokirising]

Let's have a meetup for OR, WA and ID dg'ers! Milo, Pier, Hornings, we have it all, so I'm thinking maybe in OR?

[sillybizz]

Heck yeah, any reason for me to go to Horning's Hideout and I'm in!!! great idea Lokirising. :)

[lokirising]

Have you tried Pier Park?

[sillybizz]

Have you tried Pier Park?

Pier is awesome, too!

Top courses in Oregon I've been to:

Milo, Pier, Whistler's Bend, Bryant, Horning's Hideout, Sorosis, Trojan, Dexter, Willamette, Adair, and more. :)

[lokirising]

Let's get this going then.

[snappyfingers]

Very cool!

[lokirising]

So who's serious about this? We could do Hornings and Pier Park. I havent played Hornings yet but have been wanting to for a while now.

[sillybizz]

Serious as can be!

[snappyfingers]

I'll be on vacation in that area this coming August so if it happens to fall during my trip, I'll be there! :)

[lokirising]

I was thinking this spring or summer.

[mr.smOOOth]

I would be interested in this road trip. Those OR courses look sweet. Spring/summer time would be cool.

[Flies to the Left]

You guys are thinking way ahead. Next Spring?

How about December?:thmbup:

When you guys going to get your Travel Tags?

[sillybizz]

I'm not doing much traveling in the winter and I think we could get more bodies if it was spring or summer time, plus more time to recruit! :)

[lokirising]

Pier Park and Hornings have bbq facilities too.

[lokirising]

How about May or June 2011?

[sillybizz]

That sounds like a perfect time, I'm on board.

[lokirising]

Now we just need to get more peeps.

[lokirising]

How's June 2011 sound to everyone?

[jimbosprint]

Hornings would be fun.

I can't commit to anything now, but if you make plans I will try to be there.

[lokirising]

Right on. I still haven't been to Horning's yet.

[humchris85]

Gimmie a heads up and I'll try to make it.

[lokirising]

I'm thinking June 10-13 2011

[jimbosprint]

That is one weekend before the NorCal meet up (http://www.dgcoursereview.com/forums/showthread.php?t=25134), June 17-19.

[lokirising]

Hmm, maybe I'll need to rethink this.

[lokirising]

If anyone in the Portland area reads this, let's schedule a round or two!

[sillybizz]

How about June 3rd through the 5th?

[360DiscGolfer]

Im down for a meetup, or even just a casual round. You still haven't been to Horning's loki? It is a magical place. But the new course at LL Stub State park is also freaking sweet.

[lokirising]

June 3th through the 5th could work.

[sillybizz]

Would anyone be interested in doing an invitational PDGA C Tier (DGCR members only) in the morning on one of those days? WE could always do casual rounds any other time but it could be fun to do a PDGA with ratings for members only. Just a thought my friend Andrew had come up with (screen name: cefire) where are you Andrew? He should be in this thread sometime, I told him about it.

We would have to talk to Bob Horning first of course but it would be nice to gauge interest. :)

[lokirising]

I'm not a PDGA member though.

[sillybizz]

I'm not a PDGA member though.

You could still play even if you aren't a member. There is even something called the "Charity Endowment Program" through the PDGA that I have used before to run tournaments where non members don't have to pay the $10 charge for being a non member. It's a really cool thing that we have used to raise money for our club and for non disc golf related charity's. We are running one in February to benefit Northwest Harvest, A local food bank that helps many families. :)

[lokirising]

Sounds awesome.

[lokirising]

Let's do this!

[sillybizz]

I sent a message to Bob Horning today regarding the meet up and PDGA event, I'll let you know what he says when I hear back from him. I checked the site (www.HorningsHideout.com) and I saw no information for June. Looks like the String Summit is in July and the Warrior Dash is in September so as long as there isn't some other concert I'm not familiar with June should be fine. All we need now is Bob's approval and some people saying they want in, I'm guessing a PDGA event will attract some people. :clap:

I'm pretty sure there is nothing major going on in June at Horning's. I'm also interested to hear what Bob has to say. I have always assumed their long term plan was to get official events going since the new course's baskets met PDGA guidelines.

But either way, if it's an official event or just a casual day of golf, I am down.

[sillybizz]

Bob sent me a message and it looks like the weekend of June the 5th-6th is open at Horning's Hideout. I need to hash out some details and it is no way finalized yet but on the right path. Will keep everyone updated here. :)

[lokirising]

Thanks for getting the ball rolling.

[360DiscGolfer]

Yeah thanks, thats awesome. Any excuse to play Horning's is a good one, and that would be one of the better reasons.

[Flies to the Left]

Jun 4 -5th is not not good. That is the weekend before finals. I'll have a bunch of papers to finish up also.

Maybe next time for me. :|

[Lost in the Brambles]

I could be down, I'll see if I can rally the troops...Horning's is the shizz

[bthoma1]

man why did I just move..I love Hornings. geeezz

[lokirising]

So what exactly did you have in mind, Silly? Would this be a PDGA tourney.

[sillybizz]

So what exactly did you have in mind, Silly? Would this be a PDGA tourney.

We were thinking a PDGA "C" Tier in the morning either Saturday or Sunday (doesn't matter which day to me), two rounds at the Canyon Course and then the other day be casual rounds or whatever. I'm guessing we want to make a weekend out of it since some of us are driving a long way and camping. We're thinking cheap (under $30) with a sweet players pack. Our goal would be to introduce DGCR to people, meet some new friends so we can put faces to the screen names and get some reviews coming in for Horning's, maybe even raise some money for Bob. Thoughts?

[lokirising]

I'm down. Down like a clown, Charlie Brown.

[lokirising]

So what exactly do we need to do to get this started?

[lokirising]

If I organized an Oregon dg meet, would you come?

[zenbot]

If you organized it?

[lokirising]

Well, I may need some help.

[The Bird Man]

sure, if it's in the valley.

[humchris85]

It all depends on when and where.

[snappyfingers]

If I organized an Oregon dg meet, would you come?

Only if you're even more vague with the details

[sillybizz]

The official DGCR meet announcement!!!
