Gazebo at the Hollow 2020 – Virtual Players Meeting
Alicia and I are excited to see you this weekend for Gazebo at the Hollow 2020 Sponsored by Dynamic Discs.
This is a PDGA Sanctioned event and as such all rules are in effect.
There are a couple PDGA rules I’d like to remind you of prior to the event:
• Players can’t have dogs with them on the course.
• Players can’t possess or use alcohol or drugs on the course at any time during their round.
There will be no in person players meeting. If you are not checked in (or in line to check in) by 8am, we will begin the process of replacing you with wait list players.
You must be at your starting hole and ready to start by 830am.
CTP’s and ace pool in the time of COVID
There are two CTP holes on the course, 2 and 15.
For each of the CTP holes, there will be a painted and flagged circle around the basket. If your tee shot lands in the circle, you qualify. If any part of your disc is touching the painted line, you qualify. If the line becomes obscured in places, use the groups best judgement. If the line has been obscured and it’s close… you qualify!
If you qualify, circle your score for that hole. That’s it, no flags to move, no communal paper to write on. We will take care of the rest.
• Hole 2 is the CTP for *everyone* in the tournament. We have 3 custom wrap mini baskets, discs and other cool items to give away. We will randomly draw a winner from qualifiers during round 2 and post the winners so you can pick up your prize before you leave!
• Hole 15 is the CTP for 2 $75 Gazebo gift cards. This was an optional item during check in. Only players who selected this option during check in are eligible for this CTP. We will randomly draw the gift card winners after the completion of the event and send the electronic gift card to the winners via the email used for registration.
• Ace Pool! – If there are no aces, the ace pool will be settled by the hole 2 CTP. We will randomly draw names from qualifiers until we get someone who bought into the ace pool! The ace pool is $126
Don’t forget to circle your score on the paper score card to indicate you qualified for the CTP both rounds!

Covid reminders:
• Current PDGA guidelines for COVID discourages communal water stations on the course. There will not be communal water jugs. Saturday looks to be very hot and dry. We *strongly* encourage you to bring two bottles of water for each round. We will have some bottled water at tournament central, but that will be the only place on the course where water is available.
• In order to minimize risk of exposure to Covid-19, we are allowing caddies *only* for ladies divisions. No spectators will be allowed at the event.
• 6ft Social Distancing REQUIRED, if unable to maintain you MUST be wearing a mask. 1st notice is warning, 2nd is a 1 stroke Penalty, 3rd is Disqualification and submit report to PDGA. This falls under PDGA rules for Courtesy Violations

General reminders:
ROUND 1 starts at approximately 830am. You must be at your Starting hole and ready to go AT THAT TIME. There will not be a formal meeting prior to the beginning of the round. We will call the 2 minute warning at 828am and the start at 830am.
ROUND 2 Will start approximately 1 hour after final card is turned in and will be posted Here:
SCORECARDS: Everything we are doing is to minimize the quantity of people you are interacting and in contact with for the day. On the tee pad of your first hole you will find a Ziplock bag of scorecards: 1 Card is for Round 1 and 1 card is Round 2, they are labeled. You will be in the same group for both rounds. The first player listed on the card will keep the score on the paper scorecard FOR THE ENTIRE ROUND and the remaining 2-3 players on the card will rotate keeping score digitally. For Second Round the same thing will happen, but the player listed last on the card will keep the paper score card and the remaining players will rotate the digital scoring.
Digital Score card will go to PDGA.com/Scores the event password is ‘hollow’
****DO NOT LOG IN UNTIL after 8:15am the day of the event****. Once in the digital scorecard you will enter your PDGA number or last name, it will automatically pull up your group and start you on the correct hole. You will enter scores for the ENTIRE card for approximately 5/4 holes. Once your turn is up Log Off on the upper bar and the next player will log in via the same method.
Once all scores are recorded for the round, the Digital scorekeeper will confirm his score and the remaining players can confirm their scores as well. They will be submitted electronically to the TD. Paper scorecards are to be turned in at the TD table in the bin provided. Please remain aware of distancing rules during this process. Only one player from each group is needed to turn paper scorecard in. Paper scorecards are only for technical issues and to keep fairness amongst all competitors. Round 2 will be the exact same cards, on the exact same Starting hole. Follow same protocol for round, except the order for round 2 is based on the results from round 1.
Post event:
Top finishers will receive payouts with the Gazebo Disc Golf. Gift certificates will be issued electronically and will not be available after round 2. You will be able to redeem your winnings on line or in person at any event after Gazebo at the Hollow.

Course Notes -- Two Meter Rule is not in effect
• Hole 2 – CTP, all players eligible. (Round 1 will determine prize winners, both rounds qualify for ace pool)
• Hole A – Hazard Sidewalk and beyond left, flagged/painted line long and right
(When a disc lands in a hazard, play from where the disc lies with a 1 stroke penalty. No relief is given from Hazard areas)
• Hole 15 – CTP only for players who bought into the Gazebo CTP (Both Rounds)
• Hole 18 – Play to the temporary basket short left.
• No 2 meter rule
• OB defined by course boundaries including golf course fence and water on holes 8 & 9. Other fences on the course are also OB lines, but would require remarkably errant shots.
• Sidewalks are safe, excepting Hole A. See above for rules on Hole A.
• All holes are par 3, course par is 57.

This email was sent to all players:

I wanted to take one last moment to send a quick summary of the most important things on my mind!

--- WATER WATER WATER! The heat, dryness and smoke will be your greatest opponent tomorrow. You are going to *need* to bring 4 large bottles of water. 2 for each round *at least*. It's probably a good idea to bring some gatorade or coconut water to drink between rounds. Hydrate up tonight! **THERE ARE NO COMMUNAL WATER STATIONS ON THE COURSE**
--- Covi ... more

Any word on potential drops? And just to verify from the email, a waitlister can come check in at 730am and wait for a spot?

Josh Kreutzer    August 18, 2020 at 5:45pm

Hey what are the chances I get in to play this weekend? I'm currently wait list #1 and trying to plan my weekend out. Thanks!

Moss Cox    August 10, 2020 at 11:24pm

Hey there, why does it say 85/95 registered but all divisions are appearing full? Is that 10 spots open for waiting list? Thanks in advance

Dave Kauffman    August 10, 2020 at 2:12pm

When will course be a setup? Or will it stay the same that it is now

Sabrina Donaldson    July 30, 2020 at 2:15am

Hola senior Gazebo. My husband is now a PDGA member. Can we please get the temp fee refunded? Gracias.

Philip E    July 16, 2020 at 2:53pm

I am new to this site, why is there payment for waitlist? If we do not get in will the money be returned?

Nick Engleman    July 16, 2020 at 1:15pm

Dang! This filled up quickly! Glad to see people jump on this so quickly!

Ethan Boyd    July 10, 2020 at 10:14pm

Any chance of having an open division?

Josh Kreutzer    July 10, 2020 at 3:12pm

Gazebo at the Hollow 2020 is officially scheduled and happening. Hooray! I've updated the description and schedule to reflect some changes this year due to Covid. I can't wait to see all of your smiling faces on August 22!

Mark Hauser    July 8, 2020 at 3:32pm

Is August 22nd the fall date when the tournament will happen? Registration July 15th?

Josh Kreutzer    March 26, 2020 at 6:42pm

Good afternoon my friends! I know we have a weird registration date for GAH 2020 at the moment. We don't want to take any money and avoid processing fees until we have a better idea when the season will restart. Don't worry, I'll give everyone a week warning before we open up registration.
