Count us in for what you need. Any chance BMS would allow on site camping for an event like this? Would help offset the lodging cost for those with campers.

Don't forget to take the poll we had 8 after the Ray's posted and stayed at 8 after Steve and Dee posted did you vote?

I think camping options are being worked on.

Just did. Didn't see the poll initially.

Received this post today re-posting here.

‎I would recommend switching the events so that the Championship Tour is Sat/ Sun and Match Tour Mon/ Tues so that if people decide to do both and decide to skip the challenge, they can still do both events Sat-Mon.
Just a suggestion. Thx again for a fun weekend there.

I talked with nationals about champ on Sat and Sun and the match tour goes longer on day 2 so that is why they may stay with match on Sat and Sun, but we can always ask.

Yes, Clay's idea is good. The match portion went fairly quickly I thought.

The good thing about a Match Tour is that you'd have time to set up for the Champ Tour on Sunday.

Yep, what Rife said. Switching the Math (yeah I said it) and Champ would be great for folks leaving early on Tuesday, but we wouldn't be able to set up and walk the course until late on Sunday.

There seems to be a disconnect because National is under the assumption that day 2 of a match would take longer than day 2 of a champ and based on our Match Tour, I'm not sure I agree.

It is more of being able to set up course and walk it Sunday evening with a Match on Sunday were as with a champ tour on Sat and Sun wouldn't give you much time to get the course up and approved and then have time to walk it on Sunday evening.

I'd love to make the whole event, but I'm not sure I could get away on Monday and Tuesday.

What I need to do is train someone for my job. (My real job, that is!) :lol:

I'd be happy to work the Match event in any capacity and then just run at the Champ event.
