Hello, hi and howdy! Your friendly neighborhood Lemmon Drop Team is excited to announce we are once again running the tournament as two rounds across two days on our exciting 22-hole extended course! On Day One, all players need to check-in a bare minimum of 30 minutes before tee time at Tournament Central prior to their tee time to receive their player packs, lift tickets and sign their liability forms. Regardless of when they initially checked in, all players need to report to Jess Miller, our Chief of Check-in 15 minutes before their tee times to cover any last minute details and be released to ride the lift to either Hole 1 or Hole 13 as listed in their listed tee time. TEE TIME = LIFT TIME!!! Your listed tee time is when you are expected to report to the lift. At the top, a volunteer will ensure that your card remains behind the appropriate card ahead. On Day Two, players must report to Tournament Central 15 minutes prior to their tee times to review with Check-In Staff any necessary details for the day, then line up for the ski lift at their listed tee time. TEE TIME = LIFT TIME!!! Your listed tee time is when you are expected to report to the lift. At the top, a volunteer will ensure that your card remains behind the appropriate card ahead.
