Meier Lake Info
Meier Lake Classic participants,
We are very excited about seeing everyone at Meier Lake in less than two weeks! It is hard to believe that the event is so close.
You will be part of history. The largest PDGA event in Alaska history was the 7th Annual King of the Hill event in 2017 which had 85 competitors. The Meier Lake Classic currently has 117 players signed up to play making it the largest sanctioned disc golf event in Alaska history!
I have attached a copy of the co ...

The course map appears to have been sent to all registered participants in an email.
Yes sorry I couldn’t figure out a good way to upload it to this post. I figured people would find it in their email.

Miss me?
Still healing from the fiasco last August but I think I’m ready for some standstill tee shots at this point. Hit me up on the side to hook that up. Mainly I’d like to get a meeting put together and see where we’re at as an organization, set up an election if warranted, and start having some real discussions about Government Peak. Breakup time is the best time to survey at that particular elevation and since Alcantra is in a good spot I’d love to get some plans in place for the next project.
Any other tournaments besides the Alcan Open? Trying to get the schedule finalized.

Club meeting
Hey all, sounds like we’re going to have a short get-together at my place to go over where we’re at and cover some other club business briefly. All concerned parties are invited. Give me a text at 315-2343 if you intend to show up so I have an idea how much pizza to get.
Greg Rouse August 17, 2018 at 12:21pm
Club meeting
Hey fam, I need to get a fairly important club meeting together as soon as we all can. We can do it at my place. You all have my number, so at the very least the club officers among you should send me a text and let me know the earliest you can do it. All members and concerned parties are welcome as well as soon as we set a date.
Tom Voight June 10, 2018 at 4:52am
Resuming pouring the tee pads tomorrow at 10am. Only 2 more to go!

COURSE MAINTENANCE
Maintenance starts this Saturday (6/9) at 10am. Scott foster will be supervising work Saturday. We are redoing 4 teepads and installing permanent sign posts. Any time you can spare is greatly appreciated. We should have all the tools necessary, just need bodies. We will also be working Sunday, I’ll post an update about that later. I’m hosting a singles round kicking off at 3:30pm Sunday with added cash and prizes to encourage volunteering: https://www.discgolfscene.com/tournaments/Alcantra_Cleanup_Day_Tee_Pad_Maintenance_Tournament_2018

Club meeting
As some of you may know, I have been and still am on the slope (indefinitely.) The club has some business to go over as well as an election to be held for 2018 officers. I have items to forward for an agenda and Lance intends on showing up with some other items. I’m thinking tomorrow or Sunday (10th or 11th.) Let me know who of you would be able to make it and we’ll go from there.

Pre Tournament Dubs
In preparation for the tournament this week Vlasy will be running a cash doubles round at PC tonight. Please be there by 5:30.
Greg Rouse September 14, 2017 at 8:28pm
Glow doubles
Scott will be starting the glow doubles league soon. He has lights for sale. In addition, he'll be running a cash round out at Alcantra tonight. He's set the time at 6:30.
Greg Rouse September 7, 2017 at 5:35am
PC league 9/7
League tomorrow at PC. Money in by 7. This is likely to be our last league, due to light, so DOUBLE POINTS!
Greg Rouse August 12, 2017 at 12:07am
Pre tournament doubles
We will be having a random draw $5 cash round tonight (Friday) at alcantra. Drawing cards at 7.
Greg Rouse August 3, 2017 at 5:47am
Tees/League
So all the tees are done. Due to the water content of a couple and the fact that this faulty batch of baskets ALL need minor welding, I'm letting the tees have a little more cure time and putting baskets back tomorrow. League, however, is at PC this week for some extra practice before Jailhouse. We'll enjoy these tees the following week. In the meantime... feel free to get ahold of me tomorrow regarding shuttling baskets from the repair bench at my shop to the course for installation.
Way to go Team MSDGA!!! I'm excited to get out there and throw the new pads soon. Big thanks are in order for all the volunteers who showed up to help with this project, I enjoyed working with all of you!!!
Greg Rouse August 1, 2017 at 7:39pm
Finishing tees
So now we have only 3 tees left. 6, 9, and 13. Last night we somehow turned 3 people into 6 and the last tee went very very fast. If we could get 5-6 people to put in 6-8 hours we will be finished and playing from these tees tomorrow night. Let's get through this final push. Give me, Vlasy or lance a call.
I had a blast working with all the volunteers for the last couple of days!! It's a good thing Greg Rouse has been eating his Wheaties, because he loaded most of the concrete bags into the hopper for pouring the pads. That is certainly the most most strenuous job; Thanks Greg
I had 3 bonus leg/back days this week courtesy of 20,000lbs of sakrete
Greg Rouse July 31, 2017 at 8:31am
8 tees left
So, we have 4 in. And I have to say, my back hurts, and I'm not alone. I know we all work but please, the club, private donors and club members did the hard part and dropped some serious money. We just need help putting in the labor. If you only have 2 and a half hours to spare in the morning or evening- it's something. I am taking time off work for this and I really want to see it finished. I'll be working from around 10am to 10 pm tomorrow with intermittent help, and probably ev ... more
Greg and Vlasy will definitely need some help this week guys, I did two days this weekend but I need to turn my attention to PC for the rest of this week. Get on out and help pour those tees so we can enjoy an improved Alcantra!
Greg Rouse July 30, 2017 at 8:50am
Concrete tees
2 tees went in today and they're gorgeous. We'll be back at it tomorrow. If we can get the manpower maybe we can hit 3 or 4 tomorrow. That would total half of what we need. Can't make it? We still need supplies. We're floating it out of our own pockets, but if you want your name on a permanent tee sign, consider donating to the cause. As always you can contact Vlasy, Scott, Lance or myself (315-2343) with questions.

wednesdays and thurslydays are bad for me but otherwise i will make a time work after 5pm. how about monday the 8th??

June 10 Tournament
Would like to see if anyone wanted to step up and run a tournament we have on the state schedule for the MSDGA for June 10. It can also be a 2 day, if desired. It will be a bit of a strain on me to try to run one at that time of the year but will if necessary. Just putting it out there and seeing if someone would like to step up and give it a shot.
Greg Rouse February 2, 2017 at 5:10am
Government Peak Meeting
There will be a meeting regarding the future of the Government Peak rec area (where we were approved for a disc golf course) on February 28th at the Govt Peak chalet from 3-5 pm. Bring your ideas to an officer and bring yourself to the meeting- let's get a good showing from the DG community!
I will definitely make every effort to be there Greg. I hope all ADGA members are as excited as I am about the potential course, with a good design we could create another championship level course in the state. Anyone who is familiar with this area should be really stoked for the possibilities it will offer. I know I am!
Why is it at 3-5 on a Tuesday? Most people are going to be at work.
Greg Rouse December 14, 2016 at 4:10am
2017 elections
Seeing as how at our last meeting we only had 1 nomination per position, I wanted to reach out to all the members for input on something. I'd rather not go to the hassle of digging for email addresses and building a survey online for elections. But, if there is even one objection to this (as write-ins are permitted in out elections) then please let me know right away and I will set up online voting. Otherwise the MSDGA will confirm the following 5 people to these positions, effective Januar ... more

Silky discs
Silky reruns SHIPPED! I'd like to know everyone who didn't get one but wants one. I only ordered 60 and 20 are already spoken for. There are 20 harps and 20 eMac truths left. If you look at the live stream you'll get an idea of some of the colors available, and I'll try to reserve the color you want. I'd prefer if you folks that got left out last time contact me first and asap. Text is preferred at 907-315-2343. Proceeds go to a memorial for silky, and all molds are $15 each. Since I'm not charging much, if I ship to you I have to ask that you cover shipping. Thanks!
$15 each. I'll be trying to hit every league I can to get these in your hands
Greg Rouse October 23, 2016 at 9:17am

Housekeeping
It has come to my attention that people don't know which course layout on the scene is the current layout. The 18 hole 2014 layout is the current one. PLEASE DO NOT ADD LAYOUTS TO THIS COURSE WITHOUT FIRST CONTACTING AN OFFICER. There is already a very large number of defunct layouts that I cannot delete and this makes posting league/tourney/casual round scores even more of a headache. I will be contacting DGScene for assistance in the coming days to help clean up this page. Once again, the ... more
There are a couple under that name for some reason. The right one should be scorable through 18 with the option of using alternates.
I tried. There is a "New 18 (2014) 20 holes" option, and a "New 18 (2014) 18 holes. The 18 holes option doesn't allow hole by hole scoring for all 18.

Small parking lot, I'll start taking cash at 6:30 and pull cards at 7. I'll award 10 bonus points to all attendees and who knows what other kinds of cash or goodies I'll dig out of my personal stash and put up for grabs.

Thursday leagues
Come out and play singles for our first 2015 bag tag challenge event, This week's glow league will be 18 holes of singles and ctp prizes as well.
Cost of entry this week will be $7 for members and $8 for non-members. For $12 you can purchase a 2015 bag tag which will allow you to play for large cash bounties and prizes through it the 2015 season.
You do not have to buy a tag to play leagues.
I guess that begs one additional question. Can non-members purchase a tag and be eligible for the cash bounties or do you have to be an MSDGA member?
In my opinion only MSDGA members should be able to purchase tags...but that is just my opinion...
Is the link to the course map missing from this post?
