They're looking for people to caddy for the big wigs from Zurich on Wednesday if anyone is interested. Having trouble getting volunteers for everything this year.


They wanted me to talk to Allison about why I wasn't coming back. The list is so dang long.

Shot 85 at Black Bear yesterday. Hit it pretty damn good. Short game would gag a maggot.

I guess they'll have to pay people to work if they don't get enough volunteers, huh?

Pretty pathetic when ya think about it.

This was in a email I got from them.

quote:

Volunteer Package $50 (worth $385) (1) Zurich Classic of New Orleans Golf Shirt (1) Choice of: Baseball Cap, Visor (unisex) or Straw Hat (one-size-fits-all) (1) Volunteer Badge, valid all week even when not volunteering (1) Volunteer Parking Pass, valid all week even when not volunteering. Volunteer Parking will be at Bayou Segnette State Park (Wave Pool Area). (1) Weekly Guest Ticket, valid all week (1) Lunch provided on each volunteer work day –- we have received numerous comments regarding this and are making every effort to enhance the volunteer meal experience and will keep you informed of the new and exciting changes we hope to provide (1) Round of Golf at the TPC Louisiana for volunteering for the equivalent of Two Full Shifts or Four Half Shifts. Contact your Captain if you have a Shift Question.


So do you pay $50 to volunteer? Is so that the dumbest shite I ever heard of.

I don't remember.

I wouldn't be surprised. But it's not worth $385

That's laughable. And the food did suck.

2 passes for all 5 days= $250. Not sure what they charge to park but say $10 so that's another $50. Add in the clothes and round of golf and it's easily $385.

Sure there are things they can improve on. Last year the food was better and they brought it out to us, we didn't have to walk to the volunteer village to get it.

So in other words you are paying for the supposedly free shirt, hat and shitty food. Because all the other shite is really free for them to give out since it's their tournament.

That's some funny shite. No wonder they can't find anyone to volunteer.

Yes it is. On Thursday and Friday they'll have walking scorekeepers who go out early. They get in and they send them right back out for a second round.

Last couple years guys signed up to marshal. They would show up, sign in, and head over to Acme or Champions because somebody gave them tickets. So they end up with hat, shirt, parking, 2 tickets and a round of golf. A good number who sign up no show. Then just use the tickets all week.

You don't get the round of golf voucher until later and only if your hole captain approves it If you don't work your FULL shifts you sign up for they don't sign off on your free round. I know several verify time worked but I'm sure some just give them to everyone whether they work or not.

That sucks for the score keepers.

Oh and played The Bluffs yesterday and stunk up the whole course more than #2 literally did. I saw what looked like a lot of pellitized lime on #2 and the smell in the fairway was horrible. I've put lime out in my yard before and it never smelled like that, so I'm not sure what they had on there.

I know. Last year I had trouble getting my voucher because almost everybody no showed. Year before it got lost in the mail.
