2010 DGCR Mid Atlantic Meet
Hawk Hollow – Spotsylvania, VA
October 1st, 2nd, 3rd​

All DGCR members are invited to the 2010 DGCR Mid Atlantic Meet being held at Hawk Hollow, a private course maintained by our very own John Biscoe. This 27 hole course plays over 90 acres of scenic Virginia country farm land filled with elevation changes and water hazards and is regarded as one of the best courses in the country. Come see why DGCR members have said:​

"Hawk Hollow is an excellent example of course design. "Risk versus Reward" is a necessary requirement of a great course and it's very apparent that a lot of thought went into every hole. " – Zenbot
-----
"Hawk Hollow is my favorite course out of the 350 or so courses I have played thus far; the design is fantastic, the scenery beautiful, and the aura is friendly and relaxing." – cefire
-----
"Get used to saying wow, you'll say it again [and again]." – tmahan
​

I should be able to make it out for a day if not more, think this is a great choice in local.

 

[RussMB]

I want to, but it's too far out to make a definitive yes or no. This unemployment thing makes it hard to plan too far in advance. I'm definitely going to try!

 

[solomon.trenton]

do you have a schedule for each day set?

 

[jkdisc]

do you have a schedule for each day set?

a schedule hasnt been set for each day

 

[prerube]

Ofcourse the date chosen is my daughter's 1st birthday , but I'll still be there.

Skip that day, bud. It's cool.

 

[jrawk]

a schedule hasnt been set for each day

This will be figured out as we get a better idea of attendance.

It will make most sense to have the Course Walkthrough Saturday morning.

 

[bikinjack]

You can put me down for a definite maybe. I might be able to pull that off, but I don't know.

 

[Beable]

I voted Maybe. Definitely interested, but no idea if I'll be able to make it.

 

[G Bud]

Gotta work Friday but glow golf would work. I know I will be booked Saturday until mid afternoon. Best chance is Sunday. That's our usual golf day.

Great idea!! :thmbup: Even greater it will be close to home!! :clap:

 

[prerube]

Skip that day, bud. It's cool.

I'll make it up to her

 

[Kwick]

would love to make it. I heard great things about the area, as it has a pdga event. the grange, tiki course, glow golf, nothing but great reviews about this place.

hopefully i can make it, sounds like a blast

 

[Terry C]

I would be coming from Michigan so its a long hike, but I'm definitely thinking hard about it.

 

[jrawk]

Good response so far. Prerube didn't mark the poll yet, tho. *cough*


Also, we're exploring the idea of printing up some basic t-shirts if there's enough interest?

(We're trying to keep the donation as low as possible, so these would be ala-cart options).

 

[Disc Dog]

If you miss out on this you would have to be on some real bad stuff. It would make the posts Apothecary makes in a certain thread look like a perfect 10.

 

[justin]

I'm in. My Va friends are the ones who got me into this game. I make at least one trip down each year and I'm visiting them next month so chances I won't make it are extremely small. I'll be able to drag one of them to the event. Not sure if we'd want to camp or just stay at his place in Manassas. I'd love to see some sort of fund raising for the site/Tim even if it's $1 for each participant and we send him a small check.

I'm in for shirts or whatever. Keep the ideas flowing. I might be willing to front some cash for a DGCR custom stamp order.

Are you happy now

What kind of items are you looking for to use as prizes. Do they have to be stricly DG related. I often get great deals on tools and stuff where I work. Would something like that be okay.
