The Brotherhood of the Traveling Disc.......

Greetings DGRUS World,

Cassidy aka "Wicked Dyes" started something interesting. He created "The DGRUS Great Disc Adventure". With this concept he asks " A club to track the Great Disc Adventure. If a disc labeled with The DGRUS Great Disc Adventure is found please take a photo and post it on here along with your name/ date/ and location found then leave it for another to find".

Also he asks

How to prepare a disc for its adventure!

On the underside of the disc put:

The DGRUS Great Disc Adventure

DO NOT RETURN

Take photo of you using the disc

Go to:

http://discgolfer.ning.com/group/the-dgrus-great-disc-adventure

upload photo and leave name, date, and location

Now sign disc and leave for someone else to find and use!

Once you have sent out a disc for the first time please create a discussion with the Disc Name, Color, Stamp (distinguishing marks) as the tittle.

This is a great concept. A way to track a lost disc. But I would like to start something similiar yet different. I am taking Cassidy's idea and taking it a step further. I am stuck here in Florida. And realistically, will be for a long time. I would love to travel and experience many different places and Disc Golf Courses. But since I can not, there is nothing that says that I can't sent a disc of mine all over the place. What am I talking about ?

"The Brotherhood of the Traveling Disc"

There are fifty states in the United States. For those who do not know here is a list...............

I will need to find a friend in each state. This DGRUS Friend has to befriend me, send me their address via private mail (I will not spam it, and I'll only send it to the person needing it) and promise to do the following.......

* Upon receiving the disc, take it to their local Course.

* Take a picture of themself holding the Disc in front of their Course Sign

* Play the course using the Disc when possible

* Upon returning home, go to this discussion, post the picture, and write a little story about it at their course

* Mail the Disc to the Next person on the list.

So far, I would like the following people (Currently on my Friend's list) to participate :

Ed Horst..................... Mr Ed Florida

Cassidy......................Wicked Dyes Michigan

Mark Ellis....................Mark Ellis Michigan

Shawn West.................Dookville California

Donny Olow..................Donny Olow Morley Field California. First place I ever played

David Reisner............... Kirk Hawaii

Steve West..................Steve West Minnesota

Tim...........................Tim York New Mexico

Monte........................ Moe Dee New Jersey

Brett..................... Brett@sickdisc.com Wisconsin

If they all accept, all I'll need is 42 more friends. If they do not accept, I'll need someone to step up and take over representing that state.

Would you be willing to be part of the "Brotherhood" ?

I can not make this happen unless I have enough friends to cover every state.

We have already had some small storms here in utah but nothing that hasnt melted away by afternoon. I personally still play in the snow. Its not to hard to find your disc. After a couple of days most of the snow is packed down which makes for some big skips. In january we have a ice bowl tourney we play thats quite fun as well.

The video is Awesome. Great way to catalog the travels of the disc and see all the people that touched it. I may wash it before I throw it, by the way.... :)

There were pictures posted of "Dad" the Disc by Wicked Dyes from time at The Ponds of Lakeshore.

The pictures were reposted onto the Group site.

When Cassidy is through, He'll send the Disc back to the State where my Dad and I were born.......

OHIO.

I have really enjoed the pictures. I have one request. Have at least one pic of you and the Disc at your course. This way it makes it more personal. Thank you everyone for your cooperation.

Speaking of Personal. The stories that you write do not have to be solely about Disc Golf. Please embelish with your own personal stories. Tell us about yourself, your course, your history and what nots. After all, it will be a collection of stories and pictures from all over the Untied States. The more facts included will be appreciated. I want this to be a fun and entertaining read when everything is done.
