If you get out to play today, let us know what you think. Good, bad, indifferent.

We both poured what we had left into that pad! So far so good.. I would say that me and Matt both expect some settling of the pad, due to the stone dust... but it shouldn't settle that much, we'll be assessing it soon to fill some of the low spots that show.

So far so great! Checked out the pad as Steve and Matt were finishing up. Looks great and the footing is outstanding, even when wet!

Any word on a possible work day for more flypads? I know we've got the palooza coming up in a month, it'd be cool to get the rest of them out there.

Sundays work best for me. Doesn't look like any NEFA events this coming weekend, what's everybody doing?

Material will be delivered soon...

Holes 1, 9, 11 are next on the list.

Material has been delivered. Hopefully the material will make it's way to holes 1, 9, and 12. So what do you say...who is in to bang out a couple new tee pads on Sunday?

Steve Solbo · Post by **Steve Solbo** » Thu Aug 07, 2008 9:39 am

I am in.

Ken Niu · Post by **Ken Niu** » Fri Aug 08, 2008 2:58 pm

Let's do it

Matt DeAngelis · Post by **Matt DeAngelis** » Sat Aug 09, 2008 10:41 pm

I should be there around 10. If you do not see me there, head towards the shed on hole 7. If i'm not there, head towards hole 12 tee.

I might be available on Monday or Tuesday if you are going to spend some more time working on the pads. Let me know.

Sorry Meow.

Emergency work duties popped up.

Matt DeAngelis · Post by **Matt DeAngelis** » Sun Aug 10, 2008 3:26 pm

Hole 12 white is done.

Ran into Ekap and Scooter at the park and banged out # 12, followed shortly after by Chris P. Ken and Brian arrived towards the end to lend a hand and that was that.

Ken Niu · Post by **Ken Niu** » Wed Aug 13, 2008 11:08 am

Anyone around to work on pads during the day (weds, thurs, fri)? I got the rest of the week off 8-)

Pete Violet · Post by **Pete Violet** » Wed Aug 13, 2008 9:11 pm

Hey Ken-
I can help on Thursday -- what time?

Also, Congrats on your ace! :thumright:

I hate to tell people not to work, but we don't want people working on the pads unless myself or Dean is present. We want to be sure that the pads go down correctly so we don't have to mess with them for some time. We appreciate your understanding and look forward to teaching others how to install these pads so I don't have to be there to supervise all the time.

Pete Violet · Post by **Pete Violet** » Wed Aug 13, 2008 10:08 pm

So what time will you be there tomorrow Matt?

Matt DeAngelis · Post by **Matt DeAngelis** » Wed Aug 13, 2008 10:10 pm

I can get there at 6pm. not much time to work on a pad, but if the material gets there before I do, we can bang one out in a hour and a half. The majority of the time spent making these is taken up by the time it takes to deliver the material.

Pete Violet · Post by **Pete Violet** » Wed Aug 13, 2008 10:26 pm

Is the material on site or does it need to be delivered by truck? If its on site and there's a decent wheelbarrel available - I can help move the material to the next tee pad

Matt DeAngelis · Post by **Matt DeAngelis** » Wed Aug 13, 2008 10:32 pm

here's the deal...the material is located next to the garage on hole 7. the next pads that should get done are 9, 1, 2...in that order. So yeah, either around the back of 7 and up to 17's blue tee to get to 9 white tee, or through the woods of hole 8. Probably easier to go around the outside then going through 8.

With the parks permission...If we had a pickup truck, we could load material in that, then dump it next to holes 1 and 2. If the material is there, the pads will go down easily.

Pete Violet · Post by **Pete Violet** » Wed Aug 13, 2008 10:37 pm

yeah - too bad I don 't have a truck. oh well

Rob Tatro · Post by **Rob Tatro** » Wed Aug 13, 2008 11:48 pm

Give me a ring in the morning fella's ... I have a truck but can't help all that much due to my bum foot -- I've got to get to PT at 2:30.

Thanks Dave.

OK, so who is around either on Saturday or Sunday this weekend and want to help out on the pads? Most of the grunt work has been taken care of by the tractor. We should be able to get two pads done in an afternoon.

Matt DeAngelis · Post by **Matt DeAngelis** » Fri Aug 29, 2008 9:35 am

OK, no response here...I'm going to the beach.
