2009 LSDISCS MIGHTY SHUNGA OPEN SEPT 26-27 B-TIER TOPEKA KS

[carlbren21]

Just to add to what is already on the flyer, we will have a recreational division and a casual division which whill be the same price with the only difference being that the casual division won't have to pay the $10 pdga fee. PDGA members won't be allowed in this division. The casual division also won't be posted on the pdga results page after the tourney. Everything else, will be the same.

The Saturday night party should be a blast with a live jam band lined up, food and drinks! I am thinking the party is going to cost $5+- a head which will include a gold rimmed custom pint glass, dinner, drinks, and band... definately worth the money just with dinner and the band! You won't be dissapointed! The party will be within walking distance to the lake shawnee campgrounds which is a plus. We are looking to set up mini golf for the party as well with prizes being given to the top finishers. The sign-up, 1st/2nd round, and party will all be in one location at lake shawnee.

All ams will recieve a players pack that will include...

Tourney Stamped dry fit shirt
Tourney stamped disc
Tourney stamped mini
LSDiscs Koozie
Schwag donated by Visit Topeka
Custom Printed Players manual with maps of all 4 courses
and more!

Here is a link to the campgrounds website...

We are in the process of getting a hotel lined up, but being in late september... it should be perfect camping weather (fingers crossed!) We are also looking at getting some deas on lunches for both days and will post on that when we get the info. For more info...

Just got confirmation from our good friend Dick Parker, and he will be hosting the mini golf tournament at the players party saturday night at the party. Not sure of the amount of holes, or the layout yet, but I am sure it won't dissapoint! Remember you will recieve $5 off for pre-registering so be sure to let us know asap if you will be attending. Hope to see everyone soon!

how are you wanting us to sign up for the casual division?

[carlbren21]

To sign up for the casual division, just sign up as recreational at lsdiscs.net and leave a note that is what you are wanting to do. We will list you under recreational on pdga until scores come in and then the casual division scores will be removed from the site. Let me know of other questions.

Will it be the same alternate course that was used in the LS Open?

[carlbren21]

Yes it will be the same course with added features. We will be adding some o.b. rope/flags on some holes (several of the holes on the front side, and hole 18 come to mind), as well as adding a mando to, hole ten i think, the hole right after the tunnel shot that goes down the hill into the cluster of trees. The mando will be left of the tree, not allowing players to throw it over the next fairway. We will be laying out the course within the next week and will post any changes on here as needed.

We are hoping to have the course set up on friday before the tournament as well for doubles, and will also confirm that when I know for sure.

Is there any added cash?

[carlbren21]

Yes. We will be adding $1000 cash pros and $1000 merch credit to ams as we have done in the past. I should have noted that. Thanks for the reminder.

Any word on a host hotel?

[carlbren21]

Just a quick note about the band that will be playing at our players party saturday night....

Josh Vowell & the Rumble
They have won quite a few blues competitions and most recently won a competition that is sending the to the national blues competition. Basically, we are lucky to have them play. They are booked for nearly two months out, nearly every night, so are in high demand. If you can't make it to the tournament, you are still more than welcome to come to the party, eat some food, drink some beer, play some mini golf, hang out with friends, and enjoy some AWESOME music! The party will start as soon as the second round is over, but the band won't start until 6p. They will play til 10 or 1030. Look forward to seeing everyone there!

Do a quick search on Josh Vowell & the Rumble and check them out!!!

We are in the process of finding a host hotel, though there really isn't any close to lake shawnee so not sure what/where it will be just yet. I would recomend that people stay at the lake shawnee campground as it is walking distance from the course (the alternate goes right by the campgrounds). With the weather the way it has been, we are optimistic that it should be perfect campground weather (fingers crosses). I will post when a host hotel is found, but as mentioned it likely won't be too close. I don't think the lake has anything big going on that weekend, but it might be a good idea to reserve a camp spot by calling ahead. The campgrounds are very nice with shower facilities, snack shop, beach, electric sites, very well groomed, etc...

We have a hotel at Days Inn @1510 SW Wanamaker Rd, Topeka - (785) 272-8538. Ask for Kay or Susie and say you are with the disc golf tournament and you should get a rate for right at $50 a night is what I was told.

For lunch on saturday we have a $10 large one topping pizza special at glory days, or $5 bbq lunch special at applewood which are both right down the road from lake shawnee disc golf course. I am working on getting something set up for sunday and will post on here when I do.

[Bangrrr]

Glory Days pizza is Fantastic! Or at least it used to be when they opened several years ago!!! Yep, ask the fat guy about the food
