Thanks again to Russ for doing all the stats!!!!!
Congrats to all the winners, which is everyone who played league this year. We rock! My personal numbers were down for the year (thank you Russ for the great stats all season), but that gives me something to work on next year. All of you who improved so much this year (and there are a whole lot of you), congratulations to you for game improvement, for getting it together and playing well.
See you in 2010.
congrats to all the winners! especially the volunteers. volunteer labor IS what makes disc golf go.
oh man, i'd say see you 2010, but i am still holding out hope for a well-attended, cold, late fall MT state doubles tournament lurking out there somewhere!
