This is a great event, run by a better TD. Mike pours his heart and soul into every event, and it shows.

This year will be special in that it is a two day event. I am going to be camping out this year (unless Mike has any extra space at his place :) )

Don't miss out!

for those looking to extend their weekend and get in more disc golf, The Bearclaws are proud to host Random Draw Doubles on Friday night, June 19th at Hickory Run State Park at 5:30pm.
Cost will be $5 per person and it will be total random draw.
Winners will get 75% and 2nd place team will get 25% of all money collected. No ace pot unless a side pot is established.
This is the perfect way to start your Soltstice weekend!


Also, we now have players pre-reg'ed from PA, WI, CA & NJ and are up to 39 total so far. We are only 3 weeks out, so if you have not pre-reg'ed yet, please do - would hate to have you miss out!

This will be my last update before the Summer Soltstice gets underway this weekend!
We had a work day at F.E. Walter Dam on Saturday and all holes are mowed - fairways and greens have not looked this good since last year's event!
Pre-reg is up to 65 players from PA, NJ, DE, NY, CA, VA http://www.pdga.com/tournament-results?TournID=8636 which means we are getting close to being half full! TD Mike Solt will be accepting pre-reg's online up until Thursday night at midnight, this is the only way to guarantee a spot in the tournement! Pre-reg can be done in person at Hickory Run on Friday night as well - we are hosting random draw doubles at 5:30pm, $5 per head at HR.
Players party is all set for Saturday night - free beer & free camping for all players!
Sweet players packs for ALL players!

Weather looks to be in the mid 70's both days - promises to be a great weekend in the Poconos!

Here are the official results of the 2009 Summer Soltstice cross-town event held June 20-21 at Hickory Run State Park and Francis E Walter Dam.

Thanks for all 94 players who came out and braved a combination of crazy, wet, windy, foggy weather. Thanks to those who helped prep the courses. And the biggest thanks to tournament director Mike Solt for the tons of work he did in organizing the event, securing sponsors, added cash, a GREAT player's party, and all the other little things that go unnoticed.

Thanks to Andrew "Big Dog" Sweeton & Bob Ziade for their help as an assistant TDs. Thanks also to Jeff "Crawdaddy" Manatt, Ray "R-Man" Rogers, and Eric Eichhorst for helping with scorecards. Thanks also to Alan Mindas and all the other grunts who did things like picking up CTP's and tee/hole sponsor signs after the event.
