All right! That was a lot to digest and if you're still reading this thank you very much! A couple final things for you:

Do to sign ups being less than expected this year we need to make adjustment to the courses played by division and the order in which you play them. This is so we can close one course each day and try and limit the casual players on the course during the tournament.
The biggest change is in the MA1 division with needing to go Canyon-Canyon-Meadow. If you decide you would rather play in the MPO field to play Meadow -Canyon-Meadow then please let me know at check in.

Camping arrival time is from 12pm-6pm so please try and make it in that window if coming Friday.
Saturday arrival opens at 8am not earlier
Camping is $12per person per night in the group sites we have reserved on hole 14 (canyon) & 1 (meadow)
Day use fee ($5)is required for Sunday as we will be there later than the 12pm camping checkout time.
Camping is tight so get cozy and be friendly so we don’t ruin our invite for next year.
Propane fireplaces are allowed.
Make sure you have pets being cared for during your round.
They do have restrooms and showers
WiFi is available to purchase

Thank you all and we can’t wait to see you there!
