The Dogwood Classic in Memphis has been going on since 1982. (SN only event recently)

Is that different than the Alabama Flying Disc Open? Early december, huntsville.

The Alabama States rotated around different cities in the state for the longest, Huntsville has had the last few.

Tom Monroe ran the first one and can confirm everything.

I believe the Rochester Flying Disc Open is the only one to not miss a year.

It's also the final stop for the NT this weekend.

Check out the live stream and see exactly how much of a dg sleeper city Rochester is, considering the three Worlds they've hosted. Still the best collection of courses I've played...

June 21st was the 30th annual Circus City Open in Peru, In.
Also next sunday the 29th annual Indiana Fall Series will begin with the first event at Hidden Lake Park in Merrillville. I'm told this is the longest running series in the country.

I think the Minnesota Summer Tour (MST) might be the oldest continuously running series starting May 31, 1981. From Joe Feidt, current Disc Golfer editor and one of the creators of the MST, the first series included:
'81 MST: Kenwood, May 31; Bayport, 6/7; New Brighton, 6/20; Wildwood Park, Taylors Falls, 7/11; Glen Lake, 8/1; Slatterly 8/8.
