Good afternoon everyone,
This email is intended to provide you details for the weekend, the draft player’s guide, and updates about the 35th Annual Three Rivers Open presented by DreamMakers Automotive.
I hope everyone is doing well and staying as safe as possible. The COVID-19 global pandemic makes planning large disc golf tournaments a fluid situation. That being said, the Fort Disc Golf Club and I are thrilled to be moving forward with 2020 Three Rives Open with safety precautions in place.
Two notes: (a) without these precautions - our local government and the PDGA will not allow us to host the event. Please be mindful that there are many eyes on us and it is critical to follow the guidelines to the best of your ability. (b) Be respectful of others - your views on the precautions may vary greatly.
This email is intended to provide you details for the weekend, the draft player’s guide, and updates about the 2020 Three Rivers Open.

COVID-19 Safety Precautions (As of 7/30/2020)
· Proper face coverings will be required at player check-in. (Coverings over both the nose and mouth will be required.)
· Six (6) feet of social distance will be maintained during check-in. Please have patience - everyone will get their turn.
· PER PDGA GUIDANCE, ALL PLAYERS ARE EXPECTED TO BRING THEIR OWN FOOD AND DRINK. It will likely be very hot, so please keep this in mind.
· A virtual player’s meeting will be emailed out on 8/27. A player’s meeting will not occur the day of the event. Any clarifications can be asked at player check-in.
· PDGA Live-Scoring will be used for the event. Hole assignments and tee times will be provided digitally. Links those will be provided closer to the event. (No - I won’t move you to a different card). Traditional score pointes will not be on site. If you are unable to determine your starting hole via your phone, a television monitor displaying hole assignments will be available at tournament HQ.

Other More Fun Notes:
· Attached is the draft Player’s Guide, which contains pool assignments for Tillman. If there are any questions, please let us know.
· Amateur tees for FA2, FA3, and MA3 at East Swinney will be marked the Saturday before the event.
· If you ordered a supercolor disc, you will be able to pick it up at Check-In.
· We will be working hard the next month to get the courses in tip top shape.
· IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO MAKE THE EVENT, PLEASE LET US KNOW SO THAT I CAN GET SOMEONE IN OFF THE WAITLIST.
Thanks for reading through this long-winded email. There is a lot of information to provide so that everyone can have a safe, fun event. The next email that goes out will be approximately two (2) weeks before the event and will provide any updates.
Hobey-ho,
