Nick Pantages Thanks for everything all. Shoutout to the water dogs! Any way to check on whether a disc(s) got recovered from the water? Jun 7, 2022

Shawn Mercy Jun 7, 2022 Hi Nick, Craig Tofanelli took possession of unclaimed discs that were pulled out through Monday after the DGPT event. He said that he would work through them and call / text those that had info.

Nick Pantages Jun 7, 2022 What a hero. Thanks Shawn.

William Butler How do I confirm registration? If I click the link it says that it is closed May 12, 2022

Kevin Leach May 12, 2022 I see your name under registered players, that should be a rock solid indication that you're in.

haha yes get the when me your have the very balls May 12, 2022 Thanks man, I'm staying optimistic for sure

Shawn Mercy May 12, 2022 Hi Bailey, we will refund. Hope it doesn't come to that but please let us know if you need to withdraw.

haha yes get the when me your have the very balls May 12, 2022 Thank you Shawn! I'll let you know as soon as possible if I have to drop but it's looking more likely that I'll get to play. Just needed to know just in case I did have to drop.

Roger Vartabedian Planning to come out at 11am for a practice round. Anyone interested in joining me? May 11, 2022

Roger Vartabedian May 11, 2022 I have one other joining me. If any other single or twosome is interested, see you at 11am tomorrow.

Campbell Smith Whats the food situation like for the 3 days at the course? Are any lunches included, will there be food vendors etc? May 11, 2022

show 2 earlier comments

Andrew Rothschild May 11, 2022 Well after 8 holes at Swenson you'll have already thrown the distance equivalent of GGP, and walked even more, you'll want the bigger meal!

Campbell Smith May 11, 2022 does the front 9 end near the beginning? wondering if it will be easy to go get food mid round or not. if not ill just pack a lunch

Shawn Mercy May 12, 2022 The course doesn't come back to the parking lot / restaurant until 18. Plan on carrying what you need for Friday. We'll see if we can set something up for the weekend.

Roger Vartabedian If we would like to come and practice tomorrow, do we need to book a tee time or just show up? I also hear it has to be a 4-some, is that correct? Trying to plan if it is possible to get out there. May 11, 2022

Andrew Rothschild May 11, 2022 Email with details going out shortly.

Roger Vartabedian May 11, 2022 Received and thank you

Doug Barnes Shawn, Sean, and Andy...You guys are studs! Thank you for all your hard work for this crazy huge tourney. I'm excited about the weekend. Disc golf, disc golf, disc golf. May 11, 2022

Shawn Mercy Apr 27, 2022 Hi Jonathan, apologies, I responded to your other message but DGS doesn't work that way. Doh! Please see my response in your inbox.

colin mchenry Was just wondering when the final update for the remaining spots is going to happen? I’m really hoping some of the spots get put in the ma40 division because I’ve been looking forward to this. I know you guys are busy and I appreciate all that you are doing. Apr 26, 2022
