VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT IOS #74!

IMPORTANT INFORMATION!!!!!
WAUKEGAN WILL BE A SPLIT DAY TOURNAMENT

Due to the huge turnout at our single day Marengo tournament and the race to finish before dark, we received approval to split our final IOS tournament in Waukegan. Sorry for this late notice if you have already requested off from work for one of the days!

Division splits (MAX OF 4-SOMES PER CARD EACH DAY):
MPO / MA2 / MA4 / FA2 / FA4 will play SATURDAY, October 10th.
All Other Divisions play SUNDAY, October 11th.

This is our normal division split with one exception - we will have the Intermediate Women and Novice Women play Saturday instead of all women playing Sunday. This also gives women a chance to play both days in a women protected division if desired!

We will be reaching out to everyone that has to make a change in which day they are playing. Anyone that is pre-registered with us and now can no longer make it (or chooses not to play a division that is offered on Saturday), will be offered a full refund of your entry fee.

The pre-registration information will be updated soon (as well as the PDGA website).

Overall we hope that this will be a very positive thing for all players involved. Thanks for making the IOS a smashing success!

Right now we have plans for 2 rounds of 22 holes. There is contemplation for a 23rd hole, but we may leave it as is. That means we max at 88 (or 92) players each day.

Bang those chains!
