JThompson Posted March 10, 2012 Author Share Posted March 10, 2012 Now I see what all the hubbub was over the match filling up. The only thing left are all day format! Ugh... Everybody I know is already signed up or saving space for their team mates. Anybody shooting all day Saturday and got room for a straggler? There's not a lot of walking involved, as long as the weather is good shouldn't be too bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JThompson Posted March 10, 2012 Author Share Posted March 10, 2012 have an ideal of when the web site will be updated? get an ideal of the stages & round count Round count will be around 300 give or take. The event is still 4 months off, but expect to see some stages gy months end; not that ever means anything, they rarely look the same when you get them on the ground.

1tcgc Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Is rock falls the best area to stay? It appears to be about 30 minutes from the range. Rock Falls and Dixon are about the same distance. About 20 mi from the range. Freeport is approximately 30 mi to the hotels. Travel time may be just about a wash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmantwo Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 (edited) I've got us a suite, but it would be nice if they'd announce a match hotel. Maybe I'd get a discount! Going to be 4 in the room, so needed a suite. Edited March 14, 2012 by gmantwo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E K Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 I never could find a listing for a motel or anything in Polo? Never been... Population appears to be around 3k. May explain why. Freeport is more like 25k and 30 minutes away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarge Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 List of hotels and restaurants on a5match.info Dale Hayen, MD I hear this a lot but the truth is there is absolutely no info there regarding hotels, food, directions, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since I'm always logged in I didn't know it was missing. Anyway, I have put it there another way, so you don't need to be logged in to see it. I'm glad someone finally brought this up as it looked fine to me! You can find hotels and food here You can find address and directions here. Sorry for the confusion my friends...

JThompson Posted April 10, 2012 Author Share Posted April 10, 2012 (edited) Okay ladies and Gents, this isn't there yet, need some white outline around the DC in DVC and a few other odds and ends, but this is pretty much it. The shirt will have a V neck and goes for $65 on the TechWear website. Thanks to Bob and Mark Quinn of Techwear and Gargoyle for making this possible. We will have Techwear V Neck shirts for purchase for $37.50! That is zero mark-up for us. We wanted to keep the shirt less busy, so you will be able to wear it more... Anyway, here is the basic design and we will post a link here and on the match site, as well as email bomb all competitors with a link to purchase the shirt. Damned file won't attach ~sigh~ ***CLICK HERE*** Edited April 11, 2012 by JThompson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
