This will be a 1-day event. On-line registration closes on September 19th and the event will cap at 90 players. (We are getting closer to filling by the day). Due to the complications associated with running a 36-hole event on 27 holes, there will be 2 Pools, with caps and availability as follows as of August 31 at 9:00 AM:
There are 2 spots available in Pool A (MPO, MP40, MP55, MA1). There are no spots currently available in Pool B ( MA2, MA3, MA4, and FA2 ). There are currently 4 people on the Pool B waitlist.
Current main sponsors are Brakewell Steel (Chester NY).....Snufftown Farm Brewery (Warwick NY)....Birdie Boys (Matt Pappas).....The Oasis at Warwick (Dan Doyle)
Current plan is that all players will play 36 holes - 18 on the original course and 18 on the South Hatchet 9 (Play it twice) Exact layout will be posted approx 2 weeks prior to the event and is "fluid" as a result of players still registering and withdrawing. Current plan is that Pool A (MPO, MA1, MP40, MP55) will play in 5-somes on the South Hatchet 9 in Round 1, playing the Red (Par 28) layout for their first loop and then playing the Par 36 Blue layout on their second 9. Pool B (MA2, MA3, MA4, FA2) will play in 4-somes on the Red layout (Par 58) on the original 18 in Round 1. After lunch Pool A will play in 4-somes on the Blue Par 71 layout on the original 18-hole course, while Pool B will play in 5-somes on the South Hatchet course, playing the Red layout twice. The 2-round Par for Pool A will therefore be 135 and the 2-round Par for Pool B will be 114.
Information on lunch will be forthcoming in September.
Camping will be available. Arrange this thru the Dutchess County Parks Department.

Sorry....Just saw your comment / question...Yes you may move from MA2 to MA3. Do you want me to make the change?
I've decided to stay if that's ok. I had a moment of weakness when the new ratings came out
