Let’s run it back. May 16, 2026 in Findlay, OH. 9:00 shotgun start with registration opening at 7:30 and group photo at 8:50.
We will be playing 18 holes of quota to qualify for TWO NIT spots plus some version of shenanigans in the afternoon. This is the same weekend as the PGA Championship so that’ll be in on the bar before/during/after play.
Sycamore Springs will be our wonderful hosts again this year and the cost is $100 and that covers golf w/cart if you’d like (36 holes), lunch, 2 drinks and donation to charity.
When signing up on Unknown Golf you’ll be assigned to the waitlist. Once you Venmo me the payment you’ll get moved to the confirmed list. Since we are using Unkonwn, the size of the event is getting bigger and we have the course the whole day the $100 is non-refundable. It’s worked out in the past where people have paid the day of but it’s a huge burden on the course staff.
There will be an optional $20 game that will be CTP or 50/50 or skins or god knows what. As always, this is completely optional, you’ve paid the $100 for the event and the travel, the last thing I want to do is make you shell out more funds.
Any hotels you’ll want to stay at if you’re budget friendly are off of I-75 on 224/Trenton Ave area. Please don’t stay in the hotels on the East side of 75 right by the 224/Trenton Ave area. Just trust me. If you’re coming to town for more than a night I highly recommend the Findlay Inn or the Hancock. The Hancock Hotel is our upscale hotel but on weekends is pretty affordable as long as there is nothing crazy going on.
Sycamore itself is really laid back and has plenty of room to run around and do hood rat shit if your kids or family want to show up sometime. However, the attractions for families in Findlay is really focused on our park system, the Children’s Museum and playgrounds. If you’re spouse and kids are into children’s books and artwork from them then be sure to check out the Mazza museum. It’s a world renowned art gallery filled with children’s book art and memorabilia.
Actually, I will be. Company trip thing isn’t going to have a chunk of expenses covered like they normally do, so I’m not going. Sticking around to hang out with all you dummies
Friday golf/hangout sign up sheet. Please fill this out even if you’re just coming in later and want to have dinner/drinks, that way I can make arrangements for that if need be
I’ll pick a course local-ish to Findlay and get us some tee times. Just fill out the form and answer the questions so I know about what time we’ll need to book.
With the Michigan roost having a competing event this year, our already meager attendance will take a hit, so please try to find a way to make it out this year. If you’ve never come out for an event before, this would be a great place to start. You’ll play a challenging but not overly difficult course, get to hang with a great group of people who come to a lot of events, and it’s a pretty easy and reasonable drive from most places in the state.
Would also be a great opportunity to bring out any friends and family you’ve been wanting to get involved in the roost. Even if they don’t have an official handicap, they can still come out and tee it up and, hopefully, have a great time. Would love to see a decent amount of new faces this year
is this event open to non-OHATW guis? Tried looking at the event link but it just took me to my UG dashboard. Do I need to join the OATW group to see it, I wonder?
