Course review:

http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course.php?id=3993

Eisenhower / Melvern is more open than wooded, but there are some definite wood holes and one particular hole (15) where you drive off a hill (cliff) over water to reach the other side. There is some landing area if you want to set up first.

This is a Kansas state park, park entrance fee is required. There is also quite a bit of camping available from tent areas to RV's, to cabins and yurts. They even have facilities for horse camping. Yes, you can bring your horse to camp with you. No, your horse cannot be your caddy.

Park Fee schedule:

http://ksoutdoors.com/State-Parks/Park-Fees

$5/vehicle (suggest you car pool, even if it is parking up the road a ways)
$7-19(?)/night camping based on how many utilities you want and that 10/3/15 is two days after the 'Off Season' rates kick in.

I will be camping at Maime's Cabin near hole 15 for sure Friday night and maybe Saturday night too. Check in will be there at the cabin 8:30 - 9:00 am Saturday morning.


Am Players pack will be a choice of one of these Innova discs:

Champion Blizzard Wraith
Echo Star Leopard
Echo Star Teebird
XT Colt
XT Nova


CFR Discs available for purchase or a $5 upgrade fee over standard disc:

Glow Champion VRoc
Glow Champion Blizzard Katana

Win your card, win a prize each round - TriLion golf towel

$5 - Innova Basket Ace / CTP fund:
Instead of a cash payout, various Innova baskets, such as an Innova Discatcher Traveler or Innova Discatcher Sport Basket will be given if an Ace is hit. The more players that pay into the fund, the more baskets that will be available. See 'Comments' tab for complete rules.
