How much snow did Anna Page Park get? How are the fairways?
We got around 14 inches here. We used a snow blower for walking paths on the west course and are going to do it on the east this week. All the pads will be cleared and salted before the tourney. With the walking paths it makes playing a lot easier. I know there are some people looking for partners so if you know of any please post on here or grabmdiscgolf.com that you're looking for a partner.
I know there are a number of people still trying to come together to form partnerships. Justin Lighthart contacted me in search of a partner. He is willing to play intermediate or advanced. I also know that Jim W. and Adam H. are both partner-less and were interested in competing. If anyone else is looking for a partner or is interested in partnering with any of these three guys please post here and I will make sure to get you all in contact with each other. Thanks and good luck to everyone.
Looking forward to this. How many are signed up for this tournament? Going to play Intermediate division. Looks like good weather shaping up for the event! Is duct tape and string allowed for locating discs? Thanks!
I'm not sure how many people are going to be there. There is always a good turn out for this event. Usually intermediate has the most teams. As far as string and duct tape, I don't know. I'm not going to say yes or no. Bring the stuff for it. I think it's up to the td. Thanks for the questions. I will be on here frequently to answer questions if anyone has them. Please feel free to ask about the tourney.
This is a quote from the GRABM web site from our club td "It seems we will not be getting a massive meltdown before Saturday so streamers will be allowed on discs. I am recruiting spotters on blind holes & all volunteers are welcome.
The west course has a path cleared from tees to baskets throughout the course & I plan on doing the east course before the tournament.
All pads will be cleared & salted."

Thank you to those who came and supported the tournament. GRABM hopes you had a good time and will come back for future tournaments!
Why don't the TD's at Rockford tournaments post the results on PDGA.com ???

Yes, It would take less than 5 min to upload that to pdga.com
Sorry guys, I'm sure that it will be up soon. I will run it by our td sunday at leagues. We have found a few discs out at the course from the tourney. We will try to get those back to the ones that have names. If you lost a disc let me know where it was about and I will keep an eye out and ask people out at the course if they had found any. Please let me what side and hole and where abouts on that hole if possible.
