luke i have your surge.

found my disc too, then lost it again.

[Luke Adolph]

Thanks so much, Jake!

I got a voicemail from someone named David last night but they left it on hole 1 before I could call them back. Thanks for grabbing it..

Are you planning on playing any events up this way this spring?

[Dylan Courtney]

Beefy is Sean Stanton. I don't have his # though..

[T.M.DYER]

Hey Jake,

Missed you during the event???

The Star Cobra...belongs to Bob DeCosta...should have his PDGA# as well...5184...

Please give me a call so we can get these discs back to there owners...

There is another white DX cobra out there that Bob lost...Probably just marked as Bob 5184...

[Matt DeAngelis]

There is another Beefy out there?

[T.M.DYER]

Hey All,

We got some great press for this event...

Front page of the Westerly Sun Sunday edition...

Also made the front page of the Thurs 2/27/2014 Edition of the Wood River Press...

Multiple color pictures with both articles and a good amount of print...

Not sure how to put in a link...

I have been interviewed many times over the years about disc golf...

Much of what makes it into print is not really what was said or the point at hand...

This article is full of fun facts about ME... that I never knew about myself...

It suggests that I was a hardcore ultimate player...but I do not like to run...

All press is good press...fun to read new things about yourself...

Thanks to all who helped makes this event happen...

Maybe next year we will not have a snow pack in place for this event...

We will def have many concrete tee pads for this event in 2015...

Thanks,
T.M.DYER

The canned goods, plus $3 of the entrance fee per pound of food,


What does this mean? For every pound of food, 3$ per player goes to the food bank?

If 50 pounds of food are collected each player gives $150.

Or is it $3. per player goes to the foodbank?

25 years of running this event and it has never sold out? Is this true?

[Matt DeAngelis]

Of the total profit brought in by running the event, a donation was made to the food bank of $3 per pound of food donated. There was 65 lbs of food donated, so $200 went to the food bank. If you want to break it down by per player, it would be $7.15 per player entry fee that was donated. At least that is what it looks like from the numbers.

Great exposure in the Sun!

Hey Arty,

Hey Mike,

Where did you come up with the "per player" ???



How hard is it...from the very first post in this thread... and from just above...

Hey All,

We collected 65lbs of food...$3.00/lbs...

We will donate $200.00 to the RI Commuity Food Bank along with the 65lbs of food...

We collected 65lbs of food...we gave $3.00 per pound as part of our donation...

It actually totaled $195.00...threw in an extra $5.00 to make it an even $200.00...

Not sure how this escapes you...

Hey Matt,

Your grasp of basic math is almost as good as Mikes...

First off the total profit of this event was the $267.00 we donated to the tee pad fund...

The $200 donation to the food bank was an expense of the event

If you were to try to figure out the cost per player...

Total paid players = 34
Total donation - $200.00

Divide 200 by 34 = 5.8823529

Glad that you are at the top paying attention to all those important details...

Thanks,
T.M.DYER
