Mike,

Are advanced playing two rounds of gold?

Same question for intermediate.

thanks,

[pickax]

All divisions: One 18 hole round from White Teees. One 19 hole round from the Squaw Creek Gold Tees.

[Jaseface0714]

Seems to be the same price for all divisions, is this accurate?

[pickax]

Yes-
All Pro Divisions $50
All Am Divisions $30
If you wait until the day of the event, there is an extra $5 fee.
Players who are not current PDGA members will need to add an extra $10.

You are correct. When the IOS started we made sure all amateur divisions had the same price. Our philosophy was to take the dollar amount out of the decision making of what division to play. I'm just throwing out a hypothetical here. Say there is an intermediate player who thinks they are good enough to compete in advanced. Advanced has a $40 entry fee while Intermediate has a $30 entry. Why pay an extra $10 and have harder competition? This happens often in the disc golf world.

Online registration for IOS #65 closes August 8th at 6:00am. I don't think you want to miss this one.

Normally I try to post registrations within 24 hours, but please note if you register this week (7/20-7/25), your registration might not be posted online until the end of the week.

IL States sold out. I have a feeling this one might too. Don't get left out.

Paragon is donating a towel for every player. Registration is starting to pick up.

THANKS to Brett C, Mike K, Scott P, Tom M, and the rest of the volunteer staff for working so hard to create a fun and memorable event!
Thanks to DISContinuum and Sammy's for their sponsorship!
Thanks also to the folks filming out there with the drone!  Hope to see some footage soon.

This was a FUN event - I really appreciate all the hard work you all put into this!

Had to take off before the awards and so I didn't get a chance to thank everybody personally. You guys easily run the best tournaments anywhere near here.

I was afraid at the end that two consecutive rounds on those courses might have been a bit much for my bionic back, but I'm feeling considerably less than terrible since then. See you soon!

[DiscGolfSchodt]

I just realized that I left a red DX roc on the stockade hole at the end of the second round. It was on the outside edge of the right side mound. Is there any discs remaining from the lost and found?

[pickax]

I have nothing. Brett might.

[CEValkyrie]

Steven J has it Tom.

[DiscGolfSchodt]

Awesome! Thanks!!!

Official reports have been turned in and fees paid. The deadline for the August ratings update was prior to this event, so this will be part of the September update.
