Updated Oct 18

Hello Friends of the Atlas! We are pleased to post the official sign up for the Temporarily Relocated Midwest Mashie, aka, the GCA 25th Anniversary Mashie.The committee thanks you for your patience as reasonably priced accommodations and event confirmations are fluid in this post COVID golf market. Southern Pines Golf Club, a Donald Ross design formerly known as The Elks Golf Club, has served as the philosophical golf home of GolfClubAtlas. Your best chance of catching up with Ran if he was home would be to venture over to “The Elks”, and link up with he, Chris Buie and Micklestix during an afterwork twilight. To that end, we are pleased to have the support of Southern Pines, Mid Pines and Pine Needles who have carved out some family rate tee times for the GolfClubAtlas 25th Anniversary Mashie and Gala. (EG: Golf, Beverages, and Grilled food)

ROOMS
We have reserved a block of hotel rooms with attractive rates.  Single and double rooms are available and we will have a discounted rate.
Full reservation info will be provided to those registered as the hotels have shared that folks do try to poach group rates by searching public boards such as this.

SIGN UP ON THIS THREAD - UPDATE YOUR GCA CONTACT INFO
We have 28 slots available in this tight edge/shoulder season. The same 20 or so folks have seemed to have signed up over the past few years so we reached out to these regulars for a pre-commitment to enable us to secure confirmation with the courses.
Below have pre-registered. Historically, know that all folks that have sought to attend previous Mashies have been accommodated, including those on any waitlist as schedules invariably change.

Please respond to this thread only:

Great plan.

I'll be in town, but not able to play. Would be good to see everyone at dinner on Tuesday night, so please include me in that if possible.

[hhuffines]

This is fantastic, thank you.  Please add me to the list of attendees.  Hart

[Bill Gayne]

Please add me to the list of attendees. Thanks!

[SL_Solow]

I would love to join you but I must teach 2 law school classes on Tuesday.

[Richard Hetzel]

I would be all over this if I did not already have plans to go to Augusta, we are looking for lots to build a house as we'll be moving to that area in the next 18 months.


Have a great time, all of those courses are fun.


PS: Make sure and play the 4 hole PN practice loop course!

[PCCraig]

I hate to say that I need to be in Chicago for a conference during the same dates. Boo!!!


Sounds like an awesome few days. Very sorry to miss it.

[Bill Crane]

Folks;
So disappointed that I cannot join the GCA Gala in So. Pines - due to a conflict.
Looks like a fun crew and several acquaintances attending.
Hopefully I will be there in March or earlier.
Have fun - I am jealous.   
Bill
