This week:

Tuesday, Sept. 15
6:15pm start
$5 buy-in — please bring a $5 bill or change
$4 from each entry goes toward the winners
$1 goes into the Ace Pot
Second-place team wins $5 each
Schoolhouse Brewery gift card for CTP or longest putt
Ace Pot is currently $50

Whether you’ve played for years or are still fairly new to disc golf, you’re welcome to join in.

Big thanks to Schoolhouse Brewery for supporting the league!
