Mayors Give A Day Volunteer Work - Workdays at Charlie Vettiner

[martin]

Thanks to Jason Woogs, Kyle Lynch, Mark Wampler, and Dave Greenwell - we worked at Charlie Vettiner yesterday morning and laid down rock on hole 12

the plan from metro parks will be to cover this rock in mulch

we will be doing this elsewhere on the course as well

Next week is the Mayors Give A Day Volunteer Week

Work Days scheduled so far - more rock drops, mulching, stair repair on 14, and debris removal around the course

Monday 9am - 12pm (maybe some more work after lunch)

Tuesday 2pm - 6pm (after the work day is the first Charlie Vettiner Singles Rated Round League)

Wednesday 4pm - 8pm (i realize this is during wed IQ leagues but we needed to schedule an evening work day)

Thursday/Friday - to be announced - work pending...

[martin]

Everyone please try and come help at some point - be it 1 work day, 1 hour on 1 work day, anything

All work must be done during the work days and a form must be signed by volunteers as we are tracking hours as well for Metro

Items to bring: Wheelbarrow, Shovel, Rake, Gloves, - any suggestions let me know

We laid gravel down around 13s basket, the trail from 15-16, 16s basket, and cleaned up around 15s pad and 15s basket

Thursday day off

Friday will be workday #4

Morning and evening shift

9am-12pm and 5pm-8pm

Goal is to spread any leftover mulch and gravel the fairway on 16

Looking like a rainy afternoon, so the bulk of the work might be done in the morning, we will see what mother nature has in store

[martin]

No workday tonight

Friday morning we had a team mulch the pin area on 5

Congrats everyone, 103 hours of service put in during this mayors give a day volunteer week

Louisville golfers and metro parks working together, its a great thing

[martin]

I just got this letter today from Metro Parks

"On behalf of the employees of Metro Parks and the residents of Louisville Metro, we would like to offer our gratitude to you and Louisville Disc Golf for your generous gift of service on 4/16-4/20/2012. Charlie Vettiner Disc Golf Course and local population have benefited greatly from your service, value at an estimated $2200.

Your service is a model to schools, businesses, and organizations throughout the community. Beyond the visible benefits, events like this have a ripple effect as well, with both volunteers and park users taking away a renewed sense of community pride and engagement.

Please share this gratitude with everyone at your organization who made this wonderful project possible. We deeply value our partnership and look forward to working again with you in the future.

Sincerely,

Michael J. Heitz, AIA
Director

Andrew Brooks
Volunteer Coordinator"
