Jomez was recording lead card

Rob Dahmen   July 9, 2018 at 2:58pm

Central Coast was on chase card with Willie. They only had one guy out there to film and edit so expect the turn around to post on YouTube to be a little longer than Jomez who had at least 3 guys.

Corey from Central Coast said to expect uploads starting around Tuesday

I'll be coming straight from work, so I won't be there until about 0745. Hoping I can still get out there and spot, at least for half a day.

Is there no check in before the event starts?

John Minicuci   June 20, 2018 at 3:56pm

There really is no formal need to have a check-in but there is a time placed on the schedule in the Pictures tab if you would like to check-in.

John Minicuci    Sticky May 2, 2018 at 12:57am

Here is a brief Schedule of Events as we know them today:

A lot of conversations and thought went into making this logistical decision. The end result is we have opened up registration to a max of 168 players. The MPO Division is capped at 144 players and the FPO Division is capped at 24 players. We will be running tee times every 10 minutes starting at 7:30 am on Friday. As of now, there are 3 MPO and 2 FPO spots remaining. On behalf of our sponsor Discraft, the Great Lakes Open staff thanks you all for making this event a sellout and we look forward to hosting this DGPT event on the famed Toboggan course.

Mark is saying that they will be selling Discraft plastic at the Toboggan Course Friday through Sunday. The Toboggan course is inside Kensington Metropark and is where the pros will be playing. It is near the Black Locust course where the ams will be playing. Like Jeff said, Holdens is your other o ... more

Ben Jackson   July 6, 2018 at 3:03am

Toboggan is in the same park as black locust, but not near it. See Orchard Picnic Shelter F for location http://www.metroparks.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/2016-Kensington-Park-Brochure_2.pdf

Where is the disc golf store located?

Jeff Yanssens   July 5, 2018 at 5:51pm

Holden’s is the closest store to the course with a decent selection

Mark Stephens   July 5, 2018 at 5:52pm

There will be a Discraft Store over by the Pro Course Friday - Sunday.

Kevin “KDawgg” VilleMonte    July 5, 2018 at 2:24pm

For any interested players/staff/volunteers, Eagles Wings Disc Golf will be holding a short chapel service from 7:30-8:00 tonight after practice at the Orchard Pavilion. We would love it if you could join us for some worship time before the tournament starts tomorrow. You can find more info on the Eagles Wings Facebook page.

Do you still need spotters for Friday

Mark Stephens   July 5, 2018 at 12:29pm

Yes. See the sticky post above

Jeff Yanssens    July 4, 2018 at 10:53pm

Just a friendly reminder to tick check during and after play. Being a temporary course, there is a very high chance of encountering them.
