Hey everyone, it is time to get together and put some time and effort into the course that we play everyday. We only schedule six work parties a year so please make time to volunteer this saturday.

We will be working on quite a few different projects and need all the help we can get. We will have a central work crew at the box on 14 that will send out volunteers to the various crews out on the course.

Please post if you are going to be able to make the work party.

Also we need to have any and all trucks out on saturday to help move material around the course.

Thanks in advance,

SFDGC

If you need more incentive to come out to the work party this weekend we just received 50 protostar Groove discs. They will be available at the end of the work party to buy if you want to get your hands on one. These will go fast.

Let's keep 11 as it is. The gap is gnarly, it can love you or rape you. Wouldn't it be easier to put a net or sign at 12 to help. You all talk about people who throw through there at 12 tee. I have never seen someone throw from 11 tee to 12 tee.

How about we put up a sign at 11 tee that reads
" If your aim sucks throw to the right of this tree"

Damn you Rightists, you all act like you rule the world. The Leftists have had more input and influence in the ruling of this world, than you damn right handers. Stop with the hate, show us your love. Can't we all just get along.

Thanks to everyone who turned out today for the work party. It was good to see some new faces out there swinging the pitch forks. We able to tackle a huge project today with all the help. Now there should not be any question to where the OB line on the course. We were also able to replace all of the nets that were taken down this past year from our wonderful festival participants. And to top it all off I think we managed to spread all the chips that we had to various places on the course. All in all a huge effort by everyone.

My high light was having pizza delivered to the work party on hole three at lunch time. nice

Thanks again for all the effort.

Ditto. Thanks to Orion for being an organizing force, especially hooking us up with the pizza and the Groove discs, and to everyone else for their major ass-busting today.

I played the weekly this morning and thought I'd let you all know that the course looks great! Thanks to all who pitched in to make it happen.

Also happy to see all the nets return, especially on 11. Love that mando, too. ;-)
