George -- Count me in. Thank you.

Gents,

... let me know if I screwed up any East/West designations.


If you're trying to reflect actual West and East, I should be in the West.

So should Andy Ryall.

I need to be penciled out.  What's odd is that I am not sure if that necessitates a sorry.

Recognizing that you're a bit of a lightning rod here, I enjoyed meeting you at last year's event, and you will be missed.

I'm disappointed, too. Meeting JK was one of the main reasons I was looking forward to the Mashie.

Hey George, what were you thinking for format/tee times on Sunday?  I have to fly to Florida for work at some point on Sunday, but I'm thinking if we go out early and play alternate shot again, as fast as it went last year, I might be able to stick around for a Sunday morning round.

Bill,

I've requested the first slot of tee times on Sunday (to allow for multiple rounds and travel).  Similar to last year, the groups playing alternate shot will be first off the tee.

George,

Are you still accepting new players for the Mashie?  If so, can I let you know over the weekend? 

Thanks!

I have a 6:30 am starting time reserved for Saturday morning at Lawsonia Links.  If anyone would like to get 18 in before the official start of the Mashie, please drop me a note.  Thanks!

OK Gents: We're almost exactly one month out from the 2nd Midwest Mashie, so I need to start firming up the list.  Please let me know if anyone on the list can't make it and also let me know if I'm missing anyone.  I'll start working on groupings (with times) a week or two out.  As a reminder, we have afternoon tee times on Saturday and early morning tee times on Sunday.

There are a few more spots available if anyone wants to hop on board.

Once again, let me know if anyone needs to be switched from one team to the other (we're trying for somewhat of a geographical divide).

Hopefully this weather starts improving soon!

George,

Unfortunately, I won't be able to make the Mashie. I look forward to the recap here --- and joining you all for the 3rd annual event in 13 months.

Really looking forward to it and to putting somes faces to names.
In June I will be riding the first three stages of this year's Tour de France route for charity.  630km (394 miles) in three days, with 7800m (25,600 feet) of climbing for the William Wates Memorial Trust (https://rideleloop.org/the-charity/) which supports underprivileged young people.

I'm doing the Mashie mad dash and initially was coordinating with Eric Smith, but unfortunately something has come up for Eric.  He'll be missed.

Anyway, if anyone is flying in to Milwaukee Saturday morning and wishes to split a car and/or accommodations ... send me an IM.

I leave Sunday after our round for my flight back.

Cheers,


Patrick

Sorry folks- work deadline in late May forces me to withdraw-.hate to be flaky like this - can't be helped. I'm certain I'm missing a great event.

Cahill out. Egan out. East crumbling already....

George -- If the rosters stay as they are, East vs. West-wise, be sure to set up a match between Messrs. Ryall and Craig.
