4th Annual 28 Chain Salute - July 8/9th - NEFA / PDGA C

Post by Chris Collette »

Hawk's Nest Disc Golf and Westside Discs present.....
The 4th Annual 28 Chain Salute!
PDGA Sanctioned C-Tier and a NEFA Points Event
This is another one that sells out fast!

Did you know that last year The General delivered a 985 rating if you shot par and just 2-under-par is 1000-rated? Come play the big, bad General and see how you measure up!
Any player with a total score that beats the tournament director gets a free disc (your choice) from The Hawk's Nest!
This is also your best chance to get practice for NEFA Finals! The General will be one of the 3 courses used at NEFA Finals!

Two Tiers of Registration!
The Mission of Hawk's Nest Disc Golf: 1) #growthesport, 2) Support the Community, and 3) Help every disc golfer become a better player
Tier 1 Registration on May 23rd at 8pm: Open to Select Group

Registration links are ready!

Remember, you can register early for this event on the 23rd if you have a woman registered for the Devens Women's Open as well. In the registration field, you will see it asks you for her name. As long as you give a name that is registered for the women's event, you can register early for The 28 Chain Salute!

Saturday: All Pros and Am1 Men

Early registration opens tomorrow @ 8pm for the 28 Chain Salute! This event will sell out during normal registration so we recommend trying to register early!

28 Chain Saturday: tinyurl.com/28ChainSaturday
28 Chain Sunday: tinyurl.com/28ChainSunday
Devens Womens Open: tinyurl.com/DevensWO

Want to register early? We allow early registration for those players who get a woman to register for the Devens Women's Open! Players who try to sign up tomorrow will be asked, "What woman in the Devens Women's Open is sponsoring your early registration for 28 Chain Salute?" Any player who does not answer this question with a name won't be allowed to register and will have to wait till normal registration opens.

Normal registration for 28 Chain is May 30th @ 8pm!

Just 26 hours until registration opens for the 4th Annual 28 Chain Salute sponsored by Hawk's Nest Disc Golf and Westside Golf Discs!

Set your alarms for tomorrow (Tuesday) at 8pm! This one will sell out, and the pro/am1 Saturday sold out in just a couple hours last year. The other-divisions Sunday sold out in just a day or two as well!

Per the schedule on DGScene, the players' meeting is behind the Hawks Nest. Does that mean check in is there as well and everyone should be parking at the store rather than the lot on Antietam Street? Pretty big detail that should be clarified before Saturday.

Hey Josh,
The schedule on DG Scene is correct and your deduction is correct as well! We're going to check in at the Hawk's Nest, then players have the option of staying down at the store or going up to the lot on Antietam St. Like we did at Hill Yeah, I will give enough time after the player meeting for players to drive up if they want to, for example if they're starting on hole 1, 2, etc.

Also, look for an email with all details tomorrow. Thanks!
