USDGC Qualifier for top finishing MPO player from Illinois. www.usdgc.com

We also have a sponsor paying for a couple of women's entry fees to USWDGC, best pro score and best am score on Saturday, maybe something on Sunday too.

How does the USWDGC sponsorship work?

[Bruce Brakel]

Shoot the best score, say you're going, it's paid for you.  It is not being sponsored by the tournament.  It is outside money.

doh! I'll get the update going tomorrow afternoon.

[Bruce Brakel]

The USWDGC paid entry fees are for the best score on Saturday for a woman who intends to play in a pro division at USWDGC and for the best score on Saturday for a woman who intends to play in an amateur division at USWDGC.  We will also pay an entry fee for the best amateur woman score on Sunday for a woman who intends to play in an amateur division at USWDGC. 

For example, if we had done this at Crystal Lake, Barrett would have won the paid pro entry fee, Marie would have won the Saturday am paid entry fee and Diana would have won the Sunday am paid entry fee. 

The money for this is coming from attorney Dan Flaggman via me, and not out of the Rockford players' entry fees. 
-----------------------------------

Rockford is also an Am Nationals qualifier.  Top 20% will qualify for 2008.  If you have never gone to Am Nats, the course is awesome and they treat you really well.  For my $75 entry fee I got a disc golf bag, two hats, four or five discs, two minis, food every day, and a thorough butt whomping.  I got my loot in the player pack and Lizard Games.  I could have got one more disc for speed golf, but I could have died from asthma trying that! 

-----------------------------

Rockford is also the Illinois USDGC qualifier.  Brett can explain that.  I think you have to play Open to qualify and shoot the best score for the day of those who are not otherwise qualified.

[Bruce Brakel]

Thing #1:  The accuweather.com foreguess is for really nice weather.  Go pre-register.

Thing #2:  I'm dying trophy discs over the next three days.  Micro divisions that don't pre-register don't get a trophy disc.  Period.  Go pre-register.

Thing #3:  I'm thinking the Throw Discraft/DGA player pack will be worth 24 Brass towards Discraft and DGA.  I can do 100 of those with the sponsorship I've been accumulating from Discraft and DGA.  I'll do 50 each day.  To reserve one, go pre-register, and then e-mail me.  I'll go empty my in box.  You go pre-register.

Must play in the Open Division
Must be an Illinois Resident

Wed-Sat, Oct 3-6, 2007

This spot is guranteed through August 1, 2007. The entry fee must be paid in full by that date.

For more information on this contact Brett Comincioli -> president@discontinuum.org

My check is in the mail for adv GM. I'm sure there will be others. Although since it's outnumbered adv M a couple of times, is it still considered a micro-division? 

[Bruce Brakel]

Any division you can count on your two hands is a micro division.  I'll go make the Adv Gr Master trophy.

[SERG]

what would be a cheap and close hotel to the course? preferably with a pool 

[Mukey]

Serg, I stayed at a Motel 6 last year. only cost me about $60. I don't think they had a pool, but the A/C in the room was already cranking when I got there & was really nice. But, for $60 they don't even put a clock in your room, lol. Make sure you have your cell phone alarm set!

About 10-15 minutes from the course.

If I pre-register but then can't make it because my wife goes into labor, how soon do I have to notify someone that I can't make it and push the registration to another IOS?  I will have internet access, but not until we are in the recovery room after having the baby.  Is there someone that I could call should something happen?

Thanks

[rackboy]

Could someone post a list of basket placements for the tournament?  My brother and I were out there on Sunday morning for skins and doubles and they were moving baskets to prepare for the tournament.

Thanks!
