No League on Halloween
We will temporarily suspend Saturday Doubles this week to allow everyone to play in Mystic Mills at Hudson Mills. So Saturday Dubs will not be played for points or ace pool this week and will resume on November 7th with a singles day on the Picnic Course. If some of you cannot make the full time commitment of a tournament and still want to play a noon doubles round then post here on the dgscene talk section and we'll get something going.
Here is the all the info you would need for Mystic Mills:

There is another cool event going on the same day and if you are in the Pinconning area check it out:
http://www.discgolfscene.com/tournaments/Chesse-Tosser_Triples_Disc_Golf_Tournament_2009
TD for this event is Tom Swarthout who many of you may know. He is just starting out as a TD and it looks like he has a really cool format with three rounds of 13 - best shot triples.

The new course is in at Indy Lake!
We have spent a great deal of time and effort on this new course and we're very proud of the outcome. The signs and tees have yet to be installed, so it may help to play with someone who knows their way around.
