We are in the final planning stages for our annual Fall weekend trip. This year we have decided to make the trip to Vidalia GA. There are two nice courses we have picked to play on. We plan to play at 1 PM Saturday (Oct 12) with a shotgun start at Hawks Pointe and at about 10 AM on Sunday (Oct 13) at Rocky Creek.

We are anticipating that there will be about 32 players participating. PLEASE sign up and pay your $50 deposit as soon as you can so that we can negotiate the best hotel rates possible. The deadline for signing up and submitting your deposit is October 1, 2013. Any one who has not signed up AND paid the deposit by then will be placed on a Wait List in case someone drops out. The deposit is non-refundable but you you have the option of getting your deposit back from someone on the Wait List.
The hotel rooms and golf fees for both days will be covered by the MGA “party fund”. The hotel rooms will be double occupancy and it will be each player’s responsibility to pair up for the purpose of sharing a room. If you want a single occupancy room you will need to pay for the hotel. If there is an even number of people that desire a single room, the MGA will cover half the cost of the room at the same hotel. If you choose to commute each day please let us know when you sign up.
Teams will be selected by determining team captains based on lowest handicap index as of October 1 and using a tournament pairing program to blind draw the rest of the team members. You will be able to get up your own foursome to play with each day. Once you know who your playing foursome will be, please let me know so that I can mark you as committed. This way others will be aware of what the pool of players is for creating the other foursomes.
If we reach 32 players, the prize money will be $800 each day. The prize break down each day will be as follows:
Team:
First Place $220
Second Place $160
Third Place $100
Skin Pot each day will be $160
Individual Points Payout will be:
First Place $45
Second Place $35
Third Place $30
Fourth Place $25
Fifth Place $15
Sixth Place $10
***** the above prize fund is based on 32 players. If we have more or less than 32 the prizes will be adjusted accordingly.
