NASA @ Maine -- October 30th, 2010

[J_Disc]

NASA has a scheduled launch to Bennett Disc Farm on Saturday, October 30th.

We're looking forward to some Maine hospitality and a good Halloween vibe.

Let us know what we can bring to contribute to the festivities.

i think costumes could be in order.....maybe a grenade hunt and glow challenge dubz?

[J_Disc]

I meant to post this earlier, but there's a NASA space pod headed to Bennett today -- shooting for a high Noon 1st tee.

[Jeff Conant]

aiight spaceboys & girl
t minus 10days n countn
what's da shuttle count on u jerbronies?

it could b a long day @ da farm
i suggest 9:30 start time

food & greens will b FARM TEAM covered.

[J_Disc]

9:30 sounds good.

Looks like we should pretty much have a full team.

One player may not be able to make the 2nd round and another is currently Questionable with injury, but should be OK by the 30th.

Farm status?

[Jeff Conant]

14.5 FARMahs as of 2day.
Costumes optional?

[J_Disc]

Hmm. It would definitely be fun to encourage costumes, but I don't think they should be required.

Here's an idea: How about anyone wearing a costume gets a Muligan (drive only) in the first round. Nobody will want to show up without a costume and yield a Muligan to their opponent -- but if you really have zero creative skills, OK -- no Mulligan for you.

Plus, a grand prize for the best costume(s) as voted by both teams? I will donate a case of beer and sweet disc to the prize package. I'm sure others will contribute as well.

What do others think? Game On?

[Bill Stewart]

I like. Creativity will definitely be tested as any costume restricting movement won't cut it.

about 5 of us space cadets are coming up friday afternoon for some Farm fun. any of you Farmahs gonna be around? we have been talking about lighting up the Farm at night for glow. Glow dubz?

[Jeff Conant]

Many thanks to the Farmers for hosting another fine event. Friendly folks, tasty food, beautiful weather and a great course. Home or away, the Maine challenge is always a highlight of our season.

Maine takes the win: 9-5 Singles, 8-6 Doubles, and 17-11 overall with many matches going to extra holes.

Good luck Maine! We hope to see ya again at Finals.
