Water:
We still are not allowed to put out communal water jugs because of the PDGA COVID-19 Guidelines. That means each player will be in charge of their own hydration. Bring water and make sure you stay hydrated.
Spectators:
Spectators will be allowed this weekend but all spectators MUST WEAR A MASK. Caddies and players do not. If you are spectating and not wearing a mask you will be asked to leave. Please don't screw up our relationships with the cities by not following their rules.
Pro Payout:
Pro payout will be issued via Paypal. If you signed up for the event with an email address that is different from your Paypal address, please reply back with your Paypal address. This is the first time we've had an event of this magnitude so we are paying an accountant to do the financials of this event. That means payout may process a little slower than normal. PAYOUT WILL GO OUT NO LATER THAN TUESDAY NOVEMBER 24TH!!! We hope to have it out much sooner but we want to give ourselves enough time to process everything.
Payout for the Am Side:
AM payout will be done at the Dynamic Discs Northwest Arkansas Store in JB Hunt Park. We are hoping to have AM payout ready 20 minutes after the last card is turned in from your division. Payout will be found here once the event is up and running:
