Guys, I certainly don't wish to be the voice of doom but could you keep your eyes on the weather system currently called invest 97 which, if becomes a depression will be TD9, I think. It's a long way away but there is some consistency in the models which put it north of Puerto Rico by next Saturday..........and it's BIG so the rain area it covers will be considerable.
Just mentioning it in case someone needs to think of a Plan B. Or are all of you toughies who will play through rain? (And maybe a bit of breeze?) :cheeky:

Don't you just LOVE the British understatement??????
A BIT of breeze she says!! :ermm: :cheeky:
gre:It would be quite a novel experience I suppose though to DRIVE the green on holes ONE, Thirteen, Fourteen & Fifteen, drive to the pond on number 5 yet take 7 or 8 shots to reach the greens on most other holes!! Should be a FUN day!!! ~ Grahame.

Inclimate weather has been considered and awaiting confirmation of a rain-delay date if needed. We expect it to be the next Sunday but not confirmed.
We would like to urge those whose names appear on the posted player's list to please pay as soon as possible if you haven't already. It will help greatly for planning.

Tflea,
More than happy to contribute. Please note that Guzman Ariza's player is Joel Carlo, not Jose Carlo.

Hi
I have a quick question - with some nasty weather approaching the North Coast this weekend - what is the back up plan - when will the organizers decide if the tournament is on or delayed - if delayed - what alternative date are we looking at? Just want to check as some of us guys are coming up from the Capital - Thanks Oscar
P.S. I dont mind playing in the rain - but hurricane winds might be a little too much

DRIGA: My point exactly. Not that i worry about hurricane winds along the north coast. More than likely it will be lots of rain that will make the course almost unplayable. It don't drain all that well...
It might be a good idea to figure out a rain date if things get really wet. (Or set up an open bar with lots of food and some good taxi drivers to get us home afterward???)
Damn, I wish I could do that shyte still but I am getting too old and too conservative to get drunk with golf buddies any more....and I still have to work on Mondays anyway!!
So, please see about alternate dates, just to be on the safe side....because Ike should be here or near here i n 4 days (Wed, Thurs, Fri, SAT!!!!), at least according to the advisory..

The committee met again tonight to discuss many things about the tournament, including the possibility of rescheduling. Our tournament chairman, Tflea will be updated everyone ASAP as he is in discussions with Playa Dorada about this situation. The committee is also concerned for those that are traveling a great distance to be apart of this event, along with the safety of all. Please be assured we will respond at the earliest possible time via DR1, our information sponsor.
Thank You
Thank You
Update Sept. 3 @2245
We meet tomorrow morning with course manager/president to try and get a rain-check day set; how reliable he will be is not yet a slam dunk, he is sometimes 'busy'.
We will also be making our case about caddies, or the no-need of actually.
The weather plan is:
By no later than 08:00 Saturday morning, Sept. 6 we will make a collective decision on whether it is a go or-no go. If that time and date is too late for any participants we'd like to have your feedback as to si or no.
Ike is being fickle, as Hanna was fickle, as mother nature is fickle. We do NOT want to reschedule if it is going to be a little drizzling rain here and there and a 20 knot wind -- that should be playable. But we also do NOT want to get drinched, drunk and windswept all the same day. Yes, some DO have to work on Monday and those from Santiago or SDQ need some lead time, we are very aware of that.
Please plan on coming as planned. We still have a few stragglers not paid yet. Maximum player count is right at full and those registered and paid on originally sked date will have priority if a resked is necessary.
We will Tee Off at 0930 so if you want to take a few practice putts or hit a few range balls, please arrive earlier to do so.
Thank you all for your support, your participation, patience and a great group of sponsors.

Hi All
The MiTaverna team is planning on arriving Sat morning - unless advised otherwise - we will check the website on Sat morning before departure to make sure the tournament is still scheduled as planned. A little rain or wind has no effect on us - if anything it might improve our game or give us some valid excuses for alot of slices...
We support the sponsors decisions and just let us know when to start driving NORTH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good luck to the organization group and as we say at MiTaverna - C U SOON
