Again, thanks to all who donated and congrats to all the winners. For the winners of physical items who are not attending, I’ll be contacting you over the next week or so to arrange delivery @bmink18 @OscarDeLaGorga @otafukusauce @Fairwayhank @LonnieMollo @SDykhoff42 @jknudtson @MrLarson @MackReiter
Final total came to 202 tickets, $3,170 which is 10 whole dollars more than last year. You guis fuckin’ rock.
@JScore let me know if you need to fill out that foursome. Would love to help!
Give mine to whoever best exemplifies my spirit (drinks the most seltzers) at the NSS4! Thanks for all you do @bignanski
Now I have something to strive for!

TYFYS
Looks like a 9am shotgun start. I plan to be there by 7:45-8 for proper pre-round shenanigans and meeting Team Prince!
Seems like posts automatically lock after a couple months in the New Refuge. And yes, I had meant to send the email out on Monday and here we are on Thursday. Please keep an eye on your inbox over the next hour or so. I will x-post everything here as well.
Once again:
now i have to find a way to convince the wife we should go to minnesota for a family vacation
best part is…… someone post a pic of the fence!!!
Is there any chance this is still a possibility? No worries if it doesn’t work out, but walking WBYC sounds way better than working tomorrow.
Y’all should have seen that email come through but here it is, again, in it’s entirety:
Hello friends,
We made it. It’s officially North Star Shootout week. I had started drafting this on Monday, and here we are on Thursday - apologies for keeping y’all on pins and needles. Needless to say, I am very excited to see all of you and I’m pretty confident we’re going to have an absolute banger of a day. Let’s get to the important stuff:
SCHEDULE
7:00 - 8:30 AM: Arrival, Check-in, Warmup
8:45 AM: Group Photo (this is mandatory)
9:00 AM: Shotgun start
12:30 - 1:00 PM-ish: AM Session concludes, Team Awards, Playoff Groupings, lunch/col’ beers
1:30 - 2:00 PM-ish: Match Play Playoff begins (Hole 1), Bonus golf/Cross-Country begins (Anywhere but Hole 1)
4:00PM: Public play opens on Hole 1 (we should be comfortably clear of any public groups, but please be mindful aka don’t fuck it up for everyone. This was a way for us to get some of the cost back since our numbers were lower than expected).
6:00 - 7:00 PM-ish: Final awards/more col’ beers
After: Play as much bonus golf as you like, provided you don’t hold up any public groups. After Party will be at Headflyer Brewing Company which has free live music until 10:00PM (and is open much later).
We will be scoring electronically via the Golf Genius app Android | iOS
One person from each foursome will log in and post scores for the group via the Group GGID posted on each Cart Sign.
FORMAT
AM Team/Individual Quota (18 holes, 9:00 AM Shotgun)
Scoring:
Conclusion:

Scoring:
Conclusion:
If any of this is confusing, don’t worry. It’ll be a little insane but a lot fun. I promise. When in doubt, please exercise the TC Way.
IF YOU NEED ANYTHING, my number is 651-336-0891. Call or text. I’ll try to answer quickly. See you all Saturday.
Love,
Nanski
What exactly is cross country? Asking for myself
Just playing across the course with no regard for the actual holes (while being respectful to the grounds crew, of course). Like throw some balls down in 8 fairway and play to 6 green, or whatever. It’s a riot.
I’m excited because of reasons @bignanski and @Battisstatus know, but also shit posting because it’s what I do.
Just because I’m staying with you doesn’t mean you can boss me around.
This also feels personal.
I love you for organizing everything and I can’t fucking wait to see everybody Saturday!!
