4 of a Kind
Ugh...another thread from me asking for money. 
I know....*yawn* I should probably do a better job of spacing out my raffles other fundraising efforts but c'est la vie. Hopefully I haven't tapped the PCF well dry yet...!! You guys and gals really have no idea how much I appreciate your support.
Anyway...
On Thursday July 06 I will be participating in my 4th annual golf-a-thon fundraiser for cancer research. All funds raised during this event will go directly to the University of Wisconsin Carbone Comprehensive Cancer Center's Head and Neck Cancer research fund.
Similar to the past 2 years I'm open to the following donations/pledges from you:
1) Flat rate donation [a flat donation of even $25 can make a difference!]
2) Pledge a certain $$/hole played [I'm shooting for 120 this year!]
3) Make me earn it and pledge:
1¢ / stroke
$5 / eagle
$1 / birdie
10¢ / par
$1 / hole-out from off the green
50¢ / 1-putt
25¢ / 2-putt
These are just suggested amounts and would have resulted in a donation of just over $50 based on last years numbers (see below). If you would like to pledge different amounts for any/all of the stats above (e.g. $100 / hole-in-one...LOL
) just let me know!
I will also consider any other options that you crazy folks can come up with.
Here is the link to my fundraising page: give.classy.org/jstangl2017
[Note: this is a new fundraising avenue for UW this year due a change in their IT infrastructure - just in case someone was wondering about the differences between this site and sites from years past. I have confirmation from three sources within the fundraising group that this is completely legit. They are using it for all events and fundraising efforts this year - and hopefully many years to come.]
If you choose option 1, you can make your donation at any time by using the link above.
If you choose option 2 or 3 (or make up your own), I will post the numbers within a day or two after the event and you can click the link above and make your donation.
***For every person that chooses option 3 I will pony up $1 per 3-putt+, $1 per double bogey+, and $1 per lost ball (O.B., water, woods)***
========================
For those considering option 3, I am currently a 7.7 handicap and will be playing from the white tees at my hometown course this year. I will do a rotation of the Red 9 / White 9 / Blue 9 until I run out of energy, daylight, golf balls or any combination of the three. I played this course last week Friday and shot 81 (39-42 / red-white) with a triple bogey and a double bogey on the back 9. I also have a new driver, fairway wood, and wedges in the bag this year. Still working out the kinks but seeing improvement. I know you guys are poker players and like information before placing wagers so I'm just trying to give you everything I can.
Course Info:
Red 9: Par 35, 3035 yards
White 9: Par 35, 3077 yards
Blue 9: Par 35, 3096 yards
Here are the stats from last year's event:
Holes Played: 118
Total Strokes: 517
Total Putts: 200
Eagles: 0
Birdies: 6
Pars: 57
Bogeys: 49
Double Bogey+: 6
Chip-Ins: 2
One Putts: 35
Two Putts: 78
Three Putts: 3
Lost Balls: 4
Sub-40 9 holes: 6
Even Par 9 holes: 0
Under-Par 9 holes: 0
