Damn huge bummer!
We absolutely hate to see it, but we will getcha next year
Work scheduling a mandated office trip so I have to decide between MN and Gearhart. Decided with Gearhart and I’m so mad.
I don’t think I’ll see my own apartment for more than 2 days from 9/13 to 10/5 lol
I’d say Gearhart is a nice consolation prize. We’ll miss ya!
@NorthStarUnited as good a time as any to get a raffle going as well. Please add anything you’d like to contribute, great or small, everything helps. Let me know if you have any questions.
Since everyone is making their mea culpas known. My kid is being baptized. It was the only day that worked for everyone BUT ME. So you know how that one went. Really really pissed after going hole by hole with @kcurry11 on absolute deadly hole placements. Also pissed to not be a part if the Keller is better than Pio by a mile debate that would have been a ton of fun.
We can still have that debate my friend.
Ya know, we know us dads are the least important person for some of these things, but it hurts to be reminded every once in a while
REGISTRATION OPEN
All registrants will move to the Pending Approval list and will be approved when I receive a $25 payment on Venmo (@nickmoryn). Final payment will run through Keller a few days before the event, and cost will be dependent on how many players we have - could be anywhere from about $150 (72 players) to $275 (40 players - so let’s get to 72!
One more announcement for y’all - Raffle tickets now on sale!
Tickets will be $5 apiece, and you can purchase by making a donation directly to Children’s Cancer Research Fund at childrenscancer.org, in honor of (first name) North Star (last name) United. The “in honor” part isn’t required but it will help CCRF track our total contributions. Send me proof of your donation like so:
And I will add your tickets to the sheet. In this case I purchased 5 tickets and selected to cover the transaction fees.
On that note, let’s fill out this raffle!
Attention @NorthStarUnited
I have several announcements for everyone today, so please bear with me.
First: NSS5 t-shirt orders close this Friday, 8/23 and we still need a few to make the minimum! Remember to Venmo me $39 for the shirt. (@nickmoryn)
Second: We have a unique opportunity with Titleist that requires quick action - as has been teased/rumored, we are rolling out a new Roost logo at the NSS. Our friends at Acushnet have offered us custom logo balls at $65/dz featuring this new logo. We need to submit the bulk order - you guessed it - this Friday, 8/23 with a minimum of 6 dozen per model. They are going to ship the balls directly to Keller for the NSS and I will pay Keller, so I need anyone interested to pay me directly (Venmo) $65 / dozen and indicate the ball they want. They’re only offering ProV1, ProV1x, and -ProV1x (left dash) for this go around. Sign up here:
Third (and final): WE WANT YOU to play in the North Star Shootout. As of this writing, only 30 of the 60 names on the Unofficial Spreadsheet are signed up in Unknown Golf. Frankly, we’re about half way to where we want to be with signups with only 3 weeks to go. Don’t wait, sign up now. Tell all your friends.

As a reminder, $25 due to me (again, Venmo, @nickmoryn) to hold your spot, final payment will be due to Keller and dependent on numbers. Let’s get to 72 and have ourselves a day.
I lied - there’s one more thing: Let’s get the raffle going in earnest. Only 3 of us have donated as of this post and if there’s one thing I know about this community, it’s that we raise a shit ton of money for charity. The last two years we did over $3,000 in the raffle, and we’re sitting at $125 right now. Donate by going to childrenscancer.org and send me the screenshot of your receipt.
@bignanski - I’ve got some buddies interested in playing but they don’t have official GHIN’s. Is this a hard requirement or would an 18Birdies handicap suffice?
As long as I can look it up, I’m okay with it. GHIN is just preferred because UKG will automatically update everything.
Anyone looking to play that Saturday afternoon (9/7)? I land at 10:30 AM.
Bad news friends, the back has gotten worse and now I have some bursitis in the elbow going crazy. I’m going to have to remove myself from the event
