Registration is closed until we get a better idea of what the weather is doing.
Registration will re-open once we have determined that we are a go, or if we are going to do August 17th.
Sorry for all the back and forth, as you have seen, this weather storm has been manifesting numbers as predicted for the most part.

Okay, we are kind of flying by the seat of the pants right now due to the weather throwing everything into question.

I have posted the very premature tee times so people will get an idea of what they are working with. https://www.pdga.com/tour/event/76213

Registration is still open, so we may add people, and we may drop people so times can fluctuate a bit, but if everything stays the way it is, and the weather people are wrong, then this would be start times.

I have pushed us back to a 9am starting tee time to allow for the day to warm up and additional travel time. I did rearrange the blocks on what divisions go when but that was based off of how many were in each division. MA2 got the last tee time of the day due to them having 5 in the division.

First tee would go 9am to 12, then tee again at 1pm for a 4pm finish.
Last tee would be 1045am to 145pm, then tee again at 245pm for a 545pm finish.
We are still before the 7pm sunset so I feel optimistic that everything goes well.

In the chance that we need to postpone the event, the make up date for this would be August 17th.

Hey all

There have been questions about the schedule and so I am going to sticky note it here, and I'll send an email out.

If I was building cards right now with the 18 people we have I would break it down like this:

First card would be MJ18, MA3 and FA3 as a card of 5 at 8am
Second card would be the MA2s 820am
Third card would be the MA40s 840am
Fourth card would be MA1 and MA50 at 9am

Plan on 3 hours to play a shortened 18 hole version of the course. Then 1 hour for lunch. As soon as the card is submitted, the 1 hour clock begins, so these next times are approximate. It may only take 2 and a half hours, and in that case, the round 2 start would move up a half hour. Everyone will get an hour for lunch before their 2nd round begins.

12pm - MJ18, MA3 and FA3
1220 - MA2
1240 - MA40s
1pm - MA50/MA1

Again, it is 3 hours to play, so last card should finish up at 4pm. Sunset shows to be at 7:07 so plenty of daylight to get everyone in. We will do awards ceremony as divisions complete and scores are verified, so not everyone needs to wait until the last card is finished.

This is a very tentative schedule, tho, because if we have more players sign up, times may be adjusted. However the first tee time is going to be 8am for the MJ/MA3 division to start us off regardless. Tee times may get shortened to every 15 minutes as opposed to every 20.

Trinidad does have some cost effective places to stay overnight if you want to make the drive the night before. Twisted Cedars will allow for participants to stay overnight on site and all they ask is that you be respectful of the land, pack out your trash, and if you are able to, a kind donation to the course for future improvements. The donation is optional and not required.

As we get closer to the event, I will update you all more. As it stands right now, the earliest tee time is going to be 8am for those that want to plan.

Thank you all and see you in a few weeks.
