GENERAL INFORMATION:
TRAVEL: This event is held a Chambers Creek Park in University Place, WA, which is roughly 2.25 hours north from Vancouver (on a good travel day).
FRIDAY
COURSE PREVIEW: I will plan to be at Chambers Creek Regional Park at 3pm on Friday for a course preview. I do realize that this is a less than desirable time, given school and work schedules, along with drive time, but it will allow us time to check into our hotel(s) (see Lodging below) and make it to dinner (see Dinner below) on-time. Plan to depart Chambers Creek by 4:00-4:30pm (depending on weather and the timeliness of everyone showing up) so we can get to the hotel for check-in. The course preview should take 30-60 minutes. For those arriving later, try to arrive before 4:30pm for an abbreviated version of the course.
PREVIEW PARKING: For Friday’s course preview, you may park in the West Overflow Lot which is accessed from Chambers Bay main entry road. (Please see flyer.)
