2005 Illinois Open Series

[Bruce Brakel]

The brain trust is hard at work planning the 2005 series.  I need at least one artsy type to come up with some cool hotstamp art.  I'd like to get going on this early so that we can get merch early and do casual sales to promote the series.  Whatever you do will be surrounded by schedule text in a circle so keep that in mind.  Also, you need to incorporate "2005 Illinois Open Series" into the design.

I will get started on a design. Could you get the text that will be in the circle to me?

We are still working on the schedule. We won't have the text until we have a schedule.

[circkml]

When you have a schedule, can you post it or let me know.

We will probably be posting the schedule right here when it is ready. If you want to have a place holder in the mean time you can do a circle of text with the names and dates of the events from 2004.

any new courses

Yes

[Guest]

what ones?

[Bruce Brakel]

The courses are still up in the air.  A couple of the courses have not given their final ok and another course depends on whether a tournament 300 miles away is going to let us sanction our event.

Courses that have been approved.
UW Parkside, Kenosha WI
Shady Oaks Park, Streamwood
Lippold Park, Crystal Lake
Bevier Park, Waukegan
Fairfield Park, Round Lake

There is 1 final course that we are awaiting approval. I've had to revise the proposal & waiting back for a final yes or no.  

[Bruce Brakel]

And then if we have to flip-flop Streamwood and Crystal Lake, you should look into that too.

BACK to reality

If you guys haven't already - I think Mokena would be a good consideration

[Todd. Fanning]

Yeah i would also like to see a nice tournament at wildwood too.

[D]

Fanning, your better at jokes in real life

[mirth]

This isn't real?

[Guest]

Hmmm...

I figured someone would say something like that.

This isn't.... live?

[Dan Michler]

Lets make Wildwood an A tier

I'd love to have a tournament at Adler Park. Who want to do the grunt work & contact the park district? Make sure you ask for permission to set up temp baskets.

Libertyville won't allow the setup of temp baskets. I have been thru this several times. The one tournament that Bruce and I did run there we setup one temp basket. Since then they have been completely against setting up any temp baskets at all.
