Have you ever wanted to play the USDGC but couldn't get an invite?  Have you ever wanted to play Winthrop Gold or at least a similarly set up course but don't want to travel all the way to SC?  Here's your chance.  We've re-designed Mokena's 27 hole course into 18 holes, added 2 temporary holes and laid out over 6800 feet of rope.  The result, a 20 hole, 8792 foot, par 69 challenge.  In addition, we are going to determine who will represent IL in this year's USDGC Performance Flight.

I plan on signing up tomorrow for intermediate,  but if the Advanced field is bigger will I be able to change divisions the day of the tourney?

Sure, we can do that.  Just let us know when you sign in Saturday morning.

What time will the ropes be up today and do you guys need any help getting them up?

I'll see you all there tomorrow! Can't wait!

We're starting at around 2:30 today.  We have a small crew lined up but obviously wouldn't refuse any additional help.

Best of luck to everyone playing the Ropes today!
