DISCOUNT RESORT STAY:

WEATHER POLICY: 

If inclement weather should pop up, every effort will be made by the tournament committee to get in the full number of prescribed holes. If play is delayed, all players should remain on property at the host facility and await official announcements from the tournament committee. Completion of 18 holes (either 9 holes per round, or 18 holes overall) will be considered an official tournament round. We do play in non-optimal weather conditions but put player safety first...rain and wind is playable...lightening strikes within 10 miles, hail, and puddling water on greens would be deemed unsafe or unfair, for which we would suspend or cancel the event if the prescribed minimum nuimber of holes can not be completed.
