Lawrence Open June 17th

The Lawrence Open will be held at Centennial Park on Sunday June 17th, 2007. It will be two rounds of golf with a players meeting at 9:30 a.m. Entry fees information will be posted shortly. They will be standard fees for a one day event - probably on the low side to encourage play.

There are a lot more birdies to be had at Centennial than you will find at the Wide Open so come and get a few.

Will the park be closed to casual golfers?

Sounds like a Father's day retreat. I'll be there, is it going to be PDGA sanctioned?

Why Sunday? Something going on Saturday?

I know that there is a doubles tourney at Swope on the 16th.

Here is some info on the June 17th Lawrence Open for all you detail oriented folks. This should be a PDGA sanctioned tournament. I am just now sending in the sanctioning agreement. This will be a C-Tier, however, so it shouldn't matter that it is coming a bit late.

Mothrows - The parks department has historically frowned on shutting down the park for a tournament. I will hopefully have some signs up to let people know. Maybe with a little luck they will listen to someone new running the tournament.

This is set on Sunday in part because of Swope doubles but also because I have this vague hope that some people might come into town early for the Wide Open and may consider playing.

ENTRY FEES

Open - $35
All Other Pro Divisions - $30
All Advanced Divisions - $25
All Intermediate Divisions - $20
All Recreational Divisions - $20
All Junior Divisions - $15

Registration at 8:00 - 9:30
Players meeting at 9:30
1st round at 10:00

You guys will have blast. That is a heck of a trip. Reminds me of the trip Ty Wheeler and I took in 1997 to the DGLO and the Amateur World Championships. Make sure you spend some time Ann Arbor. There is a kick ass pizza joint downtown. Brown something or other. I am jealous.
