Is gray a decline?

YES

I hope that 2015's NEDGC's lack of attendance is not viewed as a reaction to the format change. The major reason for "declines" is the Green Mountain Championship. 284 players are playing the GMDGC, the majority live in the Northeast. It's unrealistic for most players to travel to VT back to back weekends to compete. Especially with the demanding travel time and GMDGC time commitment. Hopefully next year we plan accordingly. I know that most of us from NY/NJ were planning on playing the NEDGC until it was scheduled the week following the Green Mountain A Tier.

There's about 20 AM spots left. Tomorrow night we'll open up large set of invites to fill those. So, if there are 15 left by then, we'll probably open up another 25. At that point, since we'll be over-sold (we won't be revoking any invites), it will be first-come-first-serve on those spots. Want to get the reg-list filled by the end of the weekend, so I'm not going to dick around by adding 1 or 2 spots at a time, but want to give the initial invites time to register. Got about 4-5 people that have committed but not registered yet, so make sure to do that today if you haven't.

Probably around 9-10pm on Friday, I'll update the list and post on forum and FB. We'll continue to add single invites until then as people decline.

I'm trying to get myself freed up for the AM day. Heaven has been moved, now I'm working on moving earth.

Is there a date by which I MUST register or risk losing my spot? I need another day or 2 before I know if I'm free to go.

Friday 9pm (maybe 10, depends how late my boy stays up). Hope you can make it, that Adv master field looks meaty.

Note: Pro's are not at risk of losing their spots.

This Friday (tomorrow) or next Friday?

tomorrow.

register to save your spot, worst case you get a sweet dri-fit.

All set. Any info on lodging in the area?

Anywhere but Rutland ....

I just sent Mike a msg and will post here a recommendation soon....

Killington Motor Lodge,Mountain Sports Inn and Inn at Long Trail are all very close and reasonably priced for this time of the year.

Thanks!

Reminder: tonite around 9, a bunch of more AM invites will open up. No AM spots will be guaranteed at that point. I will be trying to bring the invite level up to around 65-75% for each division.

No impact to PROs.
