MN Event: North Star Shootout - 8/15/20 - ***CHARITY UPDATE IN POST 1082***

I actually got to hold the Cup from that year! I was on a lake near Bemidji, and one of the assistant captains had it for the day. Me and my buddy saw it, ran up and asked to hold it. And he let two 12 year olds prance around and take pictures with it! We said thank you and got back to tubing. Pretty bizarre.

Anyone have any thoughts on trying to find a place to have some beers and get to know each other more after? Saint Paul Brewing is close. Just throwing it out there.

I am down.

The executive committee is working on some ideas. We’ll get it squared away, don’t you worry.

It’s a start!

As an out of stater coming from Fargo (basically Minnesota adjacent), I look forward to talking to other team Outstate folks on ideas for making it a longer more golf filled weekend if there is interest.

I’m obviously a sicko who’d drive down and back in a day if that’s all this is, so no big deal either way.

There will be plenty of things to do for the weekend. I will be around so we will work out something.

I’ll be driving down Friday morning, so I’ll be ready for an afternoon round on Friday.

I assume you’re good, but let me know if you need a place to stay Captain.

Thanks for the offer, but I looked at my trade show schedule, and I have a show in Minneapolis starting on August 16th. Gonna get to expense the hotel room for the whole weekend.

Okay, cool, let me know which hotel, I’ll send the kids over to swim.

Just kidding, I figured you were set, but if anything changes let me know. If you need a to fill out a foursome let me know.

For Immediate Release

The Executive Committee is thrilled to announce that @LonnieMollo has accepted the esteemed position of co-chair for the 1st Annual North Star Shootout. Lonnie is based locally in the Twin Cities, ensuring no out-staters, rangers, or underhanded Badger fans have undue influence over the event plannings or proceedings.

In accepting the position @LonnieMollo stated, “This has always been a dream of mine. For years I’ve toiled in the thankless job of saving lives but now I can do what I was always destined to; organizing a golf event for random internet strangers.”

We thank Lonnie for his graciousness and know he will be an invaluable asset to the team.

Beginning today, please direct all complaints about Olympic Hills management and putting surfaces directly to Lonnie.

It’s a great start, needs to be a bit more phallic though.

Like that…definitely need a logo though.

And we definitely need to say North Star Shootout. Have to keep reminding those thieves from Dallas that they’ll never really be their team.

Do you mean like having the Northstars logo in it? Or having a logo other than the flag with Northstars colors?

Yes, a very erect Northstars logo.
