I think this dynamic extends to all areas of disc golf, from putting on a tourney, keeping up a club website, designing a new course or working on an established one, just to name a few facets of the disc golfing community. MOST disc golfers just want to play a round of golf. Even among active tourney players, few will volunteer, even fewer will make good on their word and show up. Most everyone will add their complaints and gripes when things don't go well, but very few of us actually do any work. I run up against this all the time in trying to encourage folks to get involved with their local access TV stations to bring DG to their community airwaves. Many folks complain "there's no DG on TV," and yet when a little action on their part would change that, its like pulling teeth to get folks motivated.
Not much to do about it in the long run. A few good citizens will do the work the rest will enjoy.
