OB question: Are the OB lines in-bounds or OB, ie if my disc is in OB area but is touching the OB line is it safe or OB? I thought I noticed verbiage for both.

Is the course already in tournament layout?

Ryan, Is a 844 rated player ok to be in MA4? Asking for a friend.
PDGA rules state that MA4 players must be <850 rated. So I would say that's ok

Bob and Harriet’s Home Bar, a Kirkwood based restaurant and bar, will be on site serving up lunch for players and spectators. Please come hungry and help support our generous food vendor for coming out for this event

Disc Golf Clinic and Prodigy Disc vending at the tournament:
Professional Player and Prodigy Disc rep Martin Young will be on site during the tournament! Martin will host a free disc golf clinic in between round 1 and 2 (we will ensure there is enough time for lunch and clinic between rounds. Martin will be able to provide some additional clinic help after round 2.
Thank you very much to Martin and the Prodigy Disc crew for volunteering your time and supporting this event and curious players looking to learn and improve their game!

UPDATE:
I have opened MA4 as I have several players reach out saying this is their first tournament and are more casual players. If you are more casual of a player, shooting over par on average, this division may be better suited for you.

Any chance to open a MA4?

Will the tournament still have a clinic with a prodigy pro?
Yes! Just needed to make sure we locked down all the details. See comment here: https://www.discgolfscene.com/post/1493954/disc-golf-clinic-and-prodigy-disc-vending-at-the-tournament-pr

I have added the option for a Trophy Only option on the registration page. This sets player entry to a flat $20 for all AM divisions. Choose this option if you'd like to play the tourney for $20 for trophy payout and not receive a player pack

Neighbor in Need has secured an additional $1000 added cash for this event. This will be split into AM trophies, $50 increase to first place for AMs and the rest will be going to Pro Payouts (Pro payouts will have minimum $500 split across divisions with 3+ players registered)

THANK YOU DISC GOLF TRIBE! We are so excited to be a part of the ingural Neighbor in Need Disc Golf Tournament. We are going to make it a fun day and hope to grow in to a Tier A event over the years. Thank you, Ryan, Lee, and everyone who is making this possible for us! DeKalb Memorial is a great disc golf course.We are going to have some fun! [email redacted]
I mispoke on my last comment: If any part of the disc is touching inbounds, it's in. So if your disc is on the OB line and is not touching any part of the inbounds, it is out.
