This will be, first and foremost, a charity event, benefitting Make-A-Wish. 10% of the total entry fees will be given to the charity. There will also be a silent auction.
This will also be the WVGA International Golden Tee Championship.

25-32nd $150
33-48th $100

You will be allowed to use your player account. Due to the size of a 64-man DE tournament, we will start roughly an hour earlier than usual each day. I hope this does not affect your beauty sleep. We would also like to conduct a Calcutta on Friday night, if one has not already been conducted online.
There will also be incentives for raising the donations for VGforU (to be given as a group to Make-a-Wish). The following is a list of the incentives as of now. More may be added as we approach the event. [If you are a business or individual who has something you would like to donate, please contact Casey Brock or Jeff Allums by e-mail by clicking on our names. Thank you.]
