Count me in. I'm hoping my "accountant" loses track of all the golf I'm shooting for this year. :)

I'd like to attend if possible--haven't made one of these since Cuscowilla (featuring Mike Young and Charlie Rymer) many years ago.

I didn't know that Mike could top that one, but he certainly did Monday morning with a hilarious retelling of a story about a "beautiful dick".

Tell me where to send the $150 and add me to the list (or the waiting list if you've already gotten to the 24)

Have you moved in yet?

I'd love to at least show up in a fill-in capacity on Saturday or Sunday but can't commit to the full deal as yet. It'll be quite a great time, I reckon.

Craig,

Please check your IM (particularly on 1/24).  Is there also a random selection for the wait list?  Or is the Committee not entertaining certain expressions of interest?

Thanks,

Lou  ???

I regret not attending this year.  Just a reminder there was some discussion about re-naming the event.  The Tiger Cup was the consensus.  Since there has never been an actual "cup" I'll work on something in those hideous purple and yellow colors. 

Bogey

The Committee has briefly discussed the name, and our thoughts are to award the Tiger Trophy to the winning team in the Dixie Cup.  That would be a fitting tribute to a golfer of indomitable spirit and competetive fire!

My father in law was one of the head engineers at Dixie up until he retired a handful of years ago. I am sure I can dig up some good Dixie stuff from him if there is interest.

This should be a super Dixie Cup!

While in the area, I certainly want to get out to play No. 2, which I haven't seen since 2005. 

Is staying one night at the resort, be it before or after the official event, the best/only way to guarantee a tee time?  Do some rentals have access if the owner is a member of the Country Club?  Welcome any insight on this.

Also, anyone else attending interested in playing No. 2?
