Thank you to all the city, park and tourney staff for making this happen!
Thank you to all the players for signing up and letting us put this event on for you.
This will serve as the players meeting for the event. There will not be an in-person players meeting. If you have any questions, please address these at the time of check-in.
Basic Information
CHECK-IN IS FROM 8:15-9:00. Please see Disc Baron at tourney central under the canopies to check in, pick up your player’s pack, get into Ace Pool, 50/50 or Ace Bounty if you haven’t already. Please be sure to check in before 9:00.
Disc Golf Parking Lot will be open - Please park in the back lot.
TEE OFF FOR ROUND 1 WILL BE 9:15
Two horns will blow for 2 minutes at 9:13, followed by one horn at 9:15 for Tee Off. This will also be used for starting the 2nd round.
Your hole assignments are live and can be found on the PDGA Event Page or through the Live Scoring System
https://www.pdga.com/tour/event/74905
Weather - We will be monitoring the weather and any lightning activity. Should we need to stop play, we will blow the horn 3 times. Immediately mark your lie and leave the course. We will notify players once play will resume and 3 horns will be used again to start play once the weather stoppage time has passed.
Water - Water will be available at Hole 2 and Hole 10
Ace Pool - We will be using a CTP on Hole 2 in place of the Ace Pool Throw Off. If no one hits a paid ace during the round, the winner of this CTP will receive the Ace Pool. If a paid ace is hit during the round, this CTP will be null and void. This is only eligible for those players who paid in.
Ace Bounty Hole - If you opted to pay into the Ace Bounty, that is on hole 1. This must be filmed to claim your $250 Disc Baron voucher. This is only eligible for those players who paid in.
50/50 - If you opted to pay into the 50/50, that is on hole 11. This is only eligible for those players who paid in.
CTP/LP Prizes - CTP/LP flags will be out for BOTH ROUNDS.
PLEASE BE SURE to bring in all Prize Flags after the 2nd round.
You MUST be present to collect your CTP/LP prize. We will not hold or ship these prizes.
C Tier - This is a PDGA C Tier Sanctioned event. All PDGA rules will be enforced and it is solely the player’s responsibility for knowing and abiding by those rules.
Field is Set - The field is set and final. No refunds or drop requests will be processed.
Out of Bounds -
All Walking Paths, Parking Lot and Road are Out of Bounds - Fully Surrounded or Over is OB
Hole 11 - Double Mando - Player must complete their shot through the double mando trees. If the mando is missed, proceed to the Drop Zone.
Provisional - If there is a question regarding the lie of one of your shots, players are highly recommended to using a Provisional Throw. As defined by the PDGA, "A provisional throw is used when a player disagrees with the group’s ruling and no Official is available, or when it might save time in case of a possible lost or OB disc, or missed mandatory. Provisional throws allow play to continue by deferring the ruling until the status of the disc in question can be determined, or an Official is available to settle the matter. In the case where a ruling is disputed or uncertain, a player may have to play out from both the original and the provisional throws, essentially completing two legs. Once a ruling has been made, only the throws for the correct leg are counted."

The only bathrooms available on the course are the Vault Toilets. The bathrooms in the front of the park are closed due to a water main break.
