Good Evening Golfers,

We're sent out our second communication tonight and included our two venue maps, complete with OB, course notes and distances/pars. I wanted to make sure we got this up on the message board as well in the event that there are some players missing our emails. If you think this applies to you, please read to the bottom of this message then reach out.

Without further adieu, a few announcements in email #2:

Lunch
There will be a pizza food truck present at Wolf Tracks on Saturday afternoon. There will not be lunch, or lunch food available for purchase at Limberlost; in response, we've made sure to provide an extended lunch period for the B Pool who might choose to visit Dwight or "Muskoka on the Rocks" for takeout lunch should you decide not to pack your own.

Practice Rounds
The course is open for practice rounds Thursday and Friday. Bondi are offering our competitors a discounted "play all day" rate of $10 during the event. Please visit the Bondi Village office to check-in when you arrive. Please note, visitor parking extends to the beginning of the cabins, please do not park your vehicle on Bondi past this point.

Vendors
We will have disc vendors present at both courses during the event. In addition, we will also have Sarah from She Dyzer Discs on-site at Bondi Village for the event. We'll also have a small players lounge set up overlooking the Lake of Bays courtesy of Morton Muskoka Chairs, a major event sponsor this year who have also donated a VERY NICE handcrafted muskoka chair to our fundraiser raffle. Remember to bring cash for the raffle as well if you haven't purchased tickets yet; they'll be available through our on-site vendors.

Practice Areas
We will have multiple-basket practice areas set up at both venues for the weekend for players to warm-up or practice during their lunch break.

Players Packs
Amateur competitors may choose to pick-up their player's packs at "early bird" check-in between 5-7pm Friday at Bondi Village (Wolf Tracks). If you don't pick up your player's pack here, they will be available for you at check-in, or between rounds Saturday at your pool's corresponding course.

Starting Holes & Player's Meeting
We will have starting holes posted Friday morning for both pools.
A1 Pool starts at 8am @ Wolf Tracks
B Pool starts at 9am @ Limberlost Links
A2 Pool starts at 1pm @ Wolf Tracks

We ask that all players are present at the check-in tent 20 minutes prior to their tee time for a quick players meeting with your corresponding course director.

We also wanted to take a moment to introduce your two course directors for this weekend's Championships:

Wolf Tracks: Mackenzie Young

A Huntsville native and the muscle behind Gripped & Ripped Disc Sports, "Mac" has helped with a lot of heavy lifting for the event. He'll be your liaison for the duration of the event at Bondi village during check-ins and should you have any event-related questions during the event.

Limberlost Links: Cori Murdock

Hailing from Ontario's north on St. Joseph Island, Cori runs the St. Joseph DGC and volunteers on the ODSA board as treasurer and tour manager for the Ontario Club Championship. Cori will be your liaison at Limberlost; running check-in, hosting the player's meeting and answering your on-site questions as they arrive.

From Earlier Emails
We're going to do a quick re-cap in case you missed anything from our prior emails...

MA4/FA4 Divisions Added
We added MA4 & FA4 divisions a few weeks back in an effort to add parity to our stacked B Pool divisions and level the playing field. If you're currently competing in MA3 or FA3 and would prefer to switch to MA4/FA4 it's not too late! Shoot us a reply to this email with your intent and we'll make the change.

Player's Guide
We'd sent out a player's guide summary with pools, layouts, schedule and course information. We've attached the PDF to this email again in case you missed it the first time.

Raflle & Fundraiser Discs
We're running a fundraiser raffle in an effort to break even for the event and fund some fun amateur prizing for our day 2 card winners if we can meet our goal. As we've invested heavily in player pack value, event infrastructure and support materials, we could use your help to take us over the top. We've got some FANTASTIC prizes this year; winners will be drawn at the player's social on Saturday evening. To purchase tickets, or view event fundraiser discs, click here.

If you have any questions, please feel welcome to respond to this email and we'll get back to you as soon as possible, or post on the DGS event page HERE:

We'll be in touch again soon with some fun background on this year's two event courses, the optional Saturday night player's social event, your organizers and some of our key partners in presenting the 2022 ODGC!
