Now that our nationals registration is fully open, we wanted to take a moment to thank everyone who is signed up to be a part of this year's event. We have an unbelievable number of 475 players currently signed up. This is close to 50% more players than the biggest PDGA event our country has ever seen. We couldn't be more thrilled to be a part of something so special and we look forward to showing off our maritime hospitality once you arrive on our shores!
We have updated the Everything You Need to Know Page to include practice times, course information, and division order.
Until then, we have three areas we would like to bring you up to date on: Volunteering, Spectating, and Sponsoring.
Volunteering:
As you can imagine, this year's event will require many hands to make it work. We will have three courses running during the main event and plenty behind the scenes details to keep watch on. We need people to help spotting on the courses, keeping score on Udisc for the Open players, helping with parking, and setting up for the vendor village. We have a volunteer package for any person who helps for eight hours of more over the course of the week. If you are interested or know someone who may wish to volunteer during the week please fill out this form: Nationals Volunteer List
Spectating:
Which such a deep field of players for both the Am and Open side we know there will be a lot of interest in spectating. Every player who signs up for the event or volunteers for at least eight hours will receive a lanyard that gets you free parking on site and unlimited access to spectating on the tournament courses. For non-players, there will be a $20 parking fee per car to watch the Open players on their course each day. Weekend passes can be purchased for $35. There is no individual fee for people to watch the Open side, only a fee per car to park. All Am side courses are free to park at each day. Cash payments are available onsite or prepayments can be made by e-transfering to laughingbenjamin@gmail.com
Half of the proceeds from parking will go youth sports on PEI (specific team to be named this summer) while the other half will go towards the operational costs for the National Championship.
Sponsoring:
We currently still have room for both small and medium sized sponsors for the event. Sponsorship packages start at $100 and up and we can offer listing in the digital caddy book, hole signs, and full commercials on GK and Central Coast coverage. For more information please drop us an email (laughingbenjamin@gmail.com) and we can talk details.
