Halloween Glow - SCCDGC - October 19th

[magic]

This event will be flighted based on your River City Rating. I'll post more info as it gets closer.

Is there going to be a keg of labatts like at most SCCDGC events?

[magic]

Sorry...no keg for this one. With it being only one round and having to hurry a bit to be out of the park before it closes, I didn't think this would be a good event to get one for. We already got 7 free kegs this year...I thought it might be pushing it for more. I've already talked to the sponsor and they are on board with providing kegs for us again next year. I'll see how many I can get for next year and possibly include this event then.

Just wanted to get this bumped up. There are still plenty of spots available.

I have plenty of the flat LED's which are 2 for $3 or 4 for $5. I also have quite a few of the normal 1.5" glowsticks that are 3 for $1. After this year I'll probably stop carrying the glowsticks. There isn't much of a demand for them anymore now that the LED's are available.

As usual I'll have a cool looking pumpkin sitting on hole 11's basket and if I get enough time I'll try and carve a second pumpking for another basket.

Who's ready for some Halloween Glow??? I am!

A big thanks to Greg, Shane, John & Phil for taking care of the glowsticks on the baskets. Also really want to thank Nelms for helping with registration and payouts. Couldn't have run everything so well without his help.

The ace pool started at $63. There was $49 paid in to bring the total to $112. No aces were hit, so it all carries over to the next event.

There were CTP's on all holes except 16 and 17. Five of them were donated merchandise and the other eleven were $5 cash each. We didn't keep the names of all the winners.

Jeff Junte takes home the pumpkin trophy with a great round in the B Flight.

I'd like to know what people thought of using the ratings for the flights. I know most of the people that comment on our events do so through our facebook page. I did want to get a bit of conversation going here too though since I hope to see these ratings used for more events (not just SCCDGC). I do think this event went well though. I'll post more after I get some sleep.
