Willamette Qualifier 3 - September 5

[RonTheWhip]

100 players are already qualified and plan on attending the Willamette Open! My guess is that everyone will pay Labor Day Weekend to beat the online rush that following Monday. I expect that there are going to be LOTS of folks at this last qualifier. Sign up is live and right here:

Dion,

Can you explain how all of this will play out with registration for the Willamette Open? What will be the deadline for pre-qualified people to register and when will no-qualified people be able to register?

Sorry if it has already been covered but this seems like a good thread to rehash it.

[RonTheWhip]

Certainly -

Open Registration begins on September 7th - that means anyone can enter the Willamette Open. In order to take advantage of the "qualified" status, you should register before the 7th. About a dozen folks have already done so, and about 100 more are eligable to do so. My guess is that lots of folks are going to play that last qualifier and bring their money to me at that point.

Remember:

You are only qualified, you are not registered untill you pay the man (me).

Anyone can enter the WO11 on spetember 7th at pdga.com

There will be a reffle benefitting the WO and a Dion Arlyn travel fund to USDGC at the third qulifier. Prizes include:

DGA Mach Lite portable basket - Brand New!
Discraft discs and gear
Abrahobama Buzzz (Thanks Snap!)

Ticket Prices: 1 ticket - $1.00, 6 tickets - $5.00, 15 tickets - $10.00, 40 tickets - $20.00

Woo hoo! getting excited for the conclusion...

How much is registration for WO11?

Can you provide the information regarding who we make the check out to, and the address to where we send said check if we have already played a qualifier.
Thanks for all your hard work.

I'll be depositing those checks about a week prior to the event, so hopefully that doesn't catch anybody off guard.

I have two brand new (still in the box) in my garage. They are great baskets both portable and great catching ability. I plan to raffle one at the September 5th event, but I'm still not sure what to do with the second one. They retail around 160.00 according to the site, but I'd part with it for $140.00 if anyone wants to take me up on that Going to South Carolina is not cheap...

are we going to get a chance to see the standings thru the first two events before the third and final? Thanks for running this event Dion!

Current list. Lets go folks, time to get pumped about the WO! Please sign up online, it helps a ton in terms of being organized in the morning. In fact, if you dont register online, you may be subject to a $5 donation to the Willamette Open to appease the disc golf gods...

Same schedule of events:

8 am - check in / late register
9 am - players meeting followed by round 1
12 pm - lunch
1 pm - round 2
awards to follow shortly

I have that info in an excell report, I just need to organize it and all that. Tonight is the night for me to get a lot of work done. I know I'm probably preaching to the choir on this one, but there is a lot to do on top of having two jobs. I'm off to teach karate till 9pm, look forward to posting that list tonight!

[JK_Aviar]

thanks whip!

[RonTheWhip]

Pro Standings after two events. Chandler is looking strong, but it all comes down to how large the third field is, lots of points to be had! Am standings coming soon.

Hey what time is the home game this Saturday, it might affect peoples planned arrival or departure times. I-5 is a slow going after a home game for either Beavers or the Ducks.

What is Sensei Dion's weather prediction for Saturday?

How would I know both of those things? Seriously, though...game traffic is AWEFUL, please plan to arrive early and dont expect to get home that quick either. Take 99 if possible, I-5 generally sucks during game day.
