Wow! What a weekend of disc golf.
$5 draw random doubles kicked off the weekend. 20 players signed up. Nick/Dan and Pat/Dan both shot a 45 to tie. Nick and Dan won the playoff and 1st place cash. The Ripper won the Innova CTP that DISContinuum donated. It included an Innova hat, t-shirt, flag, towel, mini, & sticker.

I want to thank everyone who made this event happen. There were a TON of people who contributed to make this a very fun event. There were at least 30 individuals who pitched in.  I apologize if I missed you. We are trying to bring this event back to the level it once was. I think it’s headed in the right direction.

Players
Without the players a great event like this would never happen. We hope you enjoyed. Feedback and constructive criticism is always appreciated. THANK YOU FOR PLAYING!!! Congrats to all the winners.

I would like to thank the Sinnissippi crew for all their hard work! The course was looking awesome. The guys painted 10 meter circles around both sets of pins on all 18 permanent holes.

Chainsdiscgolf.com Presents
The Chicagoland Amateur Championships
June 12th, 2010
Adler Park—Libertyville, IL
PDGA C-Tier
Max of 100 spots


    www.chainsdiscgolf.com is the sponsor for this event. The winner of each division will win a DGA mini basket courteous of Chains Disc Golf. Here is a link to the mini basket.
http://www.discgolfassoc.com/equipment/baskets/mini-trophy-basket.html

If you have not visited Chains out in Crystal Lake get out there. The store is awesome and is loaded with discs and gear.

256 N.Oak St. Unit C
Crystal Lake, IL 60014
815.444.6300


    This is the 2nd year for this event. Last year there were 96 players. The 9 hole course at Adler is one of the better in the state. With the added 12 temporary holes this is one of the best courses in the Chicagoland area.

   Along with the mini baskets the top 5 of each division will win a trophy. There will be several first round closest to the pin contest. If there is a similar turnout to last year there will be a CTP on every hole the 2nd round.

    There are only 4 divisions being offered (Advanced, Intermediate, Recreational, and Novice). There is a division for everyone. We had several pros, masters, women, and juniors play last year. All pros rated under 970 are eligible to play.

    This is going to be a great event on a great course. With a strong Chicagoland player base and Libertyville being an hour from Milwaukee we are expecting another big turnout.

For registration information and everything else go to the link below. If the event does not fill on preregistration we will accept walk ups.
