2018 TST Michigan Outing - Interested?

[criley4way]

Is there a date and location yet??

[dennyjones]

Let's throw out some locations that may be central to the people that are interested in playing.

I like @bkuehn1952's Leslie Park in Ann Arbor.   It's about 1 hour from me and about 1 hour from Lansing.   For those interested in travel from the south, it's about 1 hour north of Toledo, OH.    

We have about 11 possible players (Jon from way up north), that include Ann Arbor, Davison, mid-Michigan, Illinois, Detroit, Lansing and Indiana.   

Let's keep this alive and set a date and location so we can make plans.

If I'm able to attend, Ann Arbor won't be a problem.

I'd suggest setting a date and seeing how it goes. There's no law against having multiple outings in the same year.

July 8 it is the week before the city championship so the course should be in good shape.

Also we should consider Eagle Crest and Washtenaw Country club.

I am down for this,  as long as i have a couple weeks notice, it doesnt matter if it's during the week or a weekend, and if it's in the ann arbor area i can ask my brother if he is interested, since he lives in livonia

[tlazzol]

Any date works for me.  If we are playing at @bkuehn1952's home course, he's gotta give some strokes.

[David L Yskes]

or at least buy everyone a round.......

July 8 in Ann Arbor could work for me. 

[bkuehn1952]

Well, I let the month of June slip away.  I have picked two tentative dates:

July 19 (Thursday) - Lansing/Okemos area

July 28 (Saturday) - Brighton Area

I have not picked out courses or a time.  We will play decent courses but not a top of the line track.  Time will likely be around 9-10am to allow some travel time.  Give me a "Yes", "Maybe" or "No" on each date.  If no one can make either date, then it is back to the drawing board.

I am out of town July 8 but I encourage all of you to try to put something together for that date.

If July doesn't work, we can always push this to August.

[dennyjones]

Thanks Brian for putting this together.   My kid will be in town from the 18th thru the 29th so I'm out.  

[dennyjones]

Wife just said that my son and family will be leaving the 28th so I could play the 29th.

[David L Yskes]

I know i can do July 19, since it's my normal day off....  and i am pretty sure i can do the 28th, but would have to check all the day off requests at work...  and i can do August too lol.....

[criley4way]

I can do the 28th but weekdays are tough.

[criley4way]

I can do it the weekend of the 28th.
