The 3 closest to the pin competitors will be awarded prizes with the grand prize being TBD. Additional attempts may be purchased on site for $1 per attempt.

Ace Pot: If no ace is hit, the ace pot will be split with half going to the Big Beaver Course Fund and half added into the WPAS Champion's purse.

Spotters: We hope to have spotter(s) available for a few holes. In the event we do not have a spotter on any holes with blind tee shots PLEASE have back of the box spot the first 2 shots then swap with one of the individuals who threw first. In particular, please take this action on holes 8, 11, 12, 15, and 18 as needed.
