I hope no one missed this, because of my obscure subject line before.

Thad is a member of the treehouse.
If anyone wants to sway the judge I know what kind of drink he likes....

Should we tell him that MacKenzie also designed great holes that didn't have 6 options?

Cheers

The prize will be given in a good spot this year!

The $2000 would cover a lot of petrol money!

I had the entry form printed a month ago, and it disappeared in my pile of bills in my apt.  I found it this weekend, 3 days after the deadline...pretty bummed.  I'll try again next year!

Even though I was the one who found the announcement and posted it here, I decided from the start I would do Charlie's great contest instead of the Lido contest. I do have a hole from Charlie's contest that I hope to use in a future Lido contest.
