Agreed...interesting.
I've been over the last 7 or so years out to SF's GGPDGC every year and have seen how the course was initially transformed / redesigned and has been maintained. They've done a super job in such - perhaps, in part, because of this program (I don't know how long it's been in effect).
I'm not saying that a similar program wouldn't work around here, but the concept of "incentives" for volunteers kind of takes the word volunteer out of the equation...sort of like paying AMs in funny money
! Not that this couldn't be done though.
But understand that there are logistics of "keeping track of such" and that the beta-test here (the GGPDGC) has perhaps as many potential volunteers and half a N.E. state does (to draw from).

Bob Huston did this for the 92 Worlds........ I was there spotting
every day for my shirt and disc.
So where in the NEFA org could this be used?

yes logistics galore for sure...and yes Bay area had great POPulation compared to say SNH...but I think this may have some value
The merch can be generated from area DG shops/courses as kinda of an AD..donate some swag to go towards this program..and watch it unfold!..obv would have its obstacles as would anything...
Marshall street volunteer program kinda has a ring to it!

It would be interesting to know how the program worked out. In general, I would be concerned about the reliabitilty of volunteers that only participated to get a prize.

if there was a stamped disc,or work stamp for clothing that ya could only get with blood,sweat from hardwork..the disc may become a badge of honor that players strive to have in their BAG or wall
just a thought on this thought
