The 3rd Course (Temporary) has not been approved yet. I am getting a jump start if it is approved.

I am looking for portable baskets to be used on the course. We are looking for quality baskets like:
DGA Mach 2 New, 3, 5  (No Mach 14 or Mach Lite)
Innova Discatcher Pro  (No Sport, Skillshot, or Traveler)
Discraft Chainstar
Gateway Titan

(No Lightning DB5)
(No InSTEP)

Please PM me if you can help us out.

I have a Mach 3 from the Age of the Eclipse.  I need to replace the plywood stand and it is as good as any Mach 3 from the Age of the Marauder.

Some Rockford news:

We are approved to set up three courses and we'll have the pavillion all weekend. 

We have a plan for four pools to play two rounds each day.  This plan allows for three hour rounds with one hour breaks.  It also allows for players to watch other divisions play through out the day as every pool will have different shotgun start times from every other pool. 

Our max cap will be 360, but our capacity in any division will be 90.  Because an A-tier will draw players from the Quad Cities and Madison and all over, we could fill.  Register early. 

Pre-reg on this site should be running "soon."  The pre-reg entry fee will be $50, all players, all divisions, plus the paypal fee if you do it on-line.  If there are any spots available for late-reg, they will be $60, all players, all divisions. 

There will be no trophy-only or half-in.  $50 is a great price for an A-tier.  There will be a lot of added work for the staff choreographing and directing this pool plan, so we want to keep other things simple. 

We're now working on raising lunch money so everyone can have a lunch at the course both days.  We will probably have some more cash-only fundraiser discs and maybe some cash fundraiser sidegames.

Is there any thought to doing a course book similar to what Scott had for the Irish? Especially with the added holes of a temporary course, it would be a great addition to make the A tier really stand out.

what hotel are people going to stay at ?

[Mukey]

I'll probably stay at Motel 6 again, cheap rooms & the AC works great

Anybody know of any campgrounds near Anna Paige? I'll probably be tenting it that weekend & am willing to share a site.

[Dan Michler]

I'm staying at Rock Cut State Park in Rockford this weekend which has a very nice campground that is 1st come 1st serve.  Its on Hwy 173 on the left as you are driving from the east.

[Bruce Brakel]

Rock Cut is nice.  We've stayed there in the past.  It is 20 minutes from the course. 

[mirth]

Thanks, I was looking at Rock Cut earlier today & that's where I'll be staying too.

Yes, we definitely want to do an informational pamphlet.
