THANK YOU for signing up for the 5th PAnnual Pine Cone Open! If you were not aware, the Pine Cone was the first event I ever ran, and did so on the anniversary of my picking up the game of disc golf. This event is special to me, and I am excited to once again see it have a full field.
Gates will open at 7:00. PLEASE DO NOT ARRIVE EARLY AND BLOCK THE GATE. PLEASE.
ALso - do not park along the road way if there is space in the overflow lot.
Registration will be up no later than 7:30, though we will let folks register earlier if we are set up quickly. Registration will cut off at 8:15 sharp.
Player pack - This year the player pack is valued at $58 MSRP and includes:
Limited Edition Prime Lime SLammer with FG Am Tour Logo

I will blow the truck horn for "Two Minutes" at 8:43. This will be two long horn blasts. Please pass along the word as the woods are thick.

IMPORTANT - This is different from my other events this year :
1) The trophies will not be present tomorrow. My usual vendor's laser engraver broke down this week and he can not get them to me on time. I will get them to the proper recipients when they are delivered.
2) ALL DIVISION WINNERS WILL WIN A NEW DYNAMIC DISCS BAG COURTESY OF UNITED TRAFFIC SERVICES!!!
MA1 - Ranger $175 MSRP

Last of all - THIS IS A PUBLIC PARK AND IT IS POSTED NO ALCOHOL OR ILLICIT MATERIALS. It also is a PDGA sanction event, which means the rules of the competition manual apply. DO NOT PUT ME IN THE POSITION TO DECIDE BETWEEN ONE PLAYER AND THE RELATIONSHIP WITH THE PARK. If it doesn't belong there, leave it at home.
As always, please come ready to have fun, and see you at registration!
