Good evening competitors!
As I’m sure you’ve heard, western Washington is expecting some snow over the next few days. While we won’t know the extent to which this may effect the course until much closer to the event, Matt and I are already planning ahead. Matt just got back from Lowe’s after picking up over 100 lbs of salt to spread over tee pads (thank you Matt), and I’ve ordered 1000 yards of ribbon for taping to and finding your discs in the case there is any measurable accumulation of snow.
As of now no changes are being made to the event schedule, though, Matt and I will be keeping a close eye on the forecast and course conditions to assess/implement any changes necessary to ensure the tournament runs smooth and as safely as possible. While no changes are expected as of now, if course conditions deteriorate so much as to effect the pace of play, some changes to the event format may be necessary to ensure competition completes on time. Again, I will provide any updates related to that matter if/when they are necessary.
While we are hoping for the best, always prepare for the not best! This will be a cold couple of rounds no matter what and the ground is likely to be somewhat wet/muddy so please plan and dress accordingly. Layering, waterproof/Gore-Tex shoes and an extra pair of socks are highly recommended.
If there are any other concerns I can address, please feel free to reach out. Otherwise I will provide another update later this week.
Best,
Thomas Garcia
