Chain Reaction has been bumped from it's preferred spot, and I'm looking at spots to put it in. The best spot appears to be June 16 & 17th.......except that Fathers Day is on the 17th.

So, I'd like to hear from everyone.....would you play a tournament on Fathers Day?

If we do this, we'll come up with some ideas to make it special for Fathers Day.

Channahon is a great place to have a tournament. I wouldn't play, my kids do something for me that day. I think I did some years ago.

Mothers Day is more of a negative than Fathers Day. Being at Channahon,I'll come out in the morning.

Patrick - I agree, mother's day is a MUST avoid date while Father's day is far less of a problem.  Some guys play *because* it's Father's day, and I think the amount of players that you lose is negligible.  I ran that weekend in 2009 at West Park.  There were 47 players, the Novice division was really small that weekend, not sure why.  Novice was still a pretty new division though.  I had 60-some the day before.  Since Channahon is a better venue, you'd probably get the better turnout.

You know what Patrick? I was going to open hole #11 late spring. Maybe we could open it for the tournament?

Scott,

Thank you for the info. I appreciate it!

Frank,

That would be great. The grass is looking good on the hill. I'm sure people would be stoked to play it for the first time.
