Aaron,

How are things?

I am running a mini indoor tournament in Portland in a few weeks.  Still a few
spots left.

Could you blast the Orono list and the High School list?

Thanks

Rich

$ub early/$ub Often

On Saturday February 21st, at YourSpace in Gorham Maine, Portland Ultimate is
hosting the first ever Sub Early/Sub Often tournament.  We will be playing from
1p-5p.

The cost to play is $15 and if you win it all, you get your $15 back.  Well,
that wasn't enough for some of you, so we changed it.  You play on the winning
team and you get $16!!!  That's right, you actually make a dollar.  Now we can
really call
ourselves "professional athletes"

We are approaching the limit for the number of players, so don't delay, sign up
quick.

See you on the fields.

Portland Ultimate

some folks have gotten back saying 10/19 not good..

How about 10/26 rescheduling with 11/2 raindate???

e-mail me if your team CANNOT make that... thanks!

Hello!
According to HA officials, NO TEAMS can play at Hampden fields w/o insurance
since there is no official HA Ultimate club (yet).  NO TEAMS CAN PLAY THIS
SUNDAY!  Thus we will reschedule to one of the following Sundays and have the
tourney UPA
sanctioned ($100)... so teams will have to pay between $10-15 as an entry fee. 
Please post which Sundays are preferable for your team... Thanks!

Rescheduling of 1st Annual Hampden Ultimate Invitational to:
10/19
10/26
11/2
11/9

*IDEAL TO SCHEDULE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE... SO HOW ABOUT 10/19???

Note that FB event date is being changed to 10/19... this is not set in stone..
just to avoid the event being archived...

We have wrapped up there for the summer due to low turnout.. we have merged with
a group that plays at Hampden Academy turf on Sundays at 12noon to 2:30pm... we
have been getting 8's and 9's of local youth folks... this is definitely the
game to
come up for and will be continuing until very late fall since the turf field is
like the one the Patriots play on... some Hampden Academy alum donated a couple
million for the fields..  it is a couple of exits closer to Waterville area..  I
would
definitely plan on bringing the family for this one..

This is a special note to you organizers out there, hoping you can spread the
word about this hat tourney to your various mailing lists and listserves out
there. It'd be much appreciated. I've attached both a press release (if you have
local ulti
press contacts) and the more fun and interesting letter (more for the ultimate
bunch), as well as pasted the letter into the text here at the end. Let me know
with any questions/ideas.

Thanks much much much in advance, guys - really appreciated. Sorry for the short
notice - as this is only a week and a half away hopefully you can get this right
out in the next days and maybe even talk it up and pickup and such :)

All the best,

-Danji

Get Your Hats Out!
Announcing the Triumphant Return:
July 26, 2008, 10am, Rockland:

Hidcoast Mat: Volume IV!

After ten long, cold, and arduous months anxiously awaiting the return of that
Midcoast Ultimate Hat Tournament know as Hidcoast Mat, oh purveyors of the
beauty of disc, Volume IV is upon us!

A quick recap of last summer: Hidcoast Mat began last summer and had three
successful incarnations, Volumes I, II, and III. Approximately 80-100 players in
all from Massachusetts to Bar Harbor and all over central and southern Maine
represented!

About the tourney: a hat tournament is a sort of pickup tourney. Players of
absolutely every skill level are encouraged to come (And we mean absolutely
every skill level). Every brings a hat (extra ridiculous ones are appreciated)
and throws it in a
big bag. Hats are drawn from the bag to select the teams for the day. Play
proceeds in a round-robin format, with breaks for feeding barbecue style,
playing ridiculous ultimate games, and potentially also naps in the grass.
Remember hats must be
worn at all times during play. A hat that falls off mitigates a turnover at
Hidcoast Mat, unless caught by a team-member (heroic measure are encouraged to
save fallen hats). Much fun is had by all.

The discs will fly high on Saturday, July 26, 2008 at 10am in Rockland. The
field (with at this point 98.4% probability – if this changes I will be in
touch) will be Kenniston Field, which is located on Old County Road in Rockland,
right next to the
old MBNA building, about a quarter mile south of the intersection of Old County
Road and Route 17 (googlemap: [ http://tinyurl.com/6ldvjo
]http://tinyurl.com/6ldvjo).

We'll be having a barbecue continuing the Hidcoast Mat tradition – a word to
that: we'll send around a hat (a cool one) at the beginning of the day and then
run out to get food supplies – so a few dollars for the barbecue fund from each
player would
be fantastic. No tourney fee! Just donations for the food. AND/OR if you have
any delicious veggies for the burgers or salads or wish to attempt making a
Soufflé, all these things would also be greatly appreciated.

Bring a (crazy) hat and a few bucks for the barbecue! Tell your friends! Tell
your neighbors! Tell your pets! Tell your friendly local convenience stores! Be
in touch with any questions! Let's make Hidcoast Mat Volume IV the biggest best
and
craziest yet!

And stay tuned and get geared up for Volume V in mid-August!

Yours in Disc,

-Danji (Buck-Moore)
