1483.0. "1992 Corporate Cup Tournament" by JUPITR::LONGCHAMPS () Thu Mar 19 1992 17:01

     Hello fellow golfers,
    
        With tomorrow being the first day of spring, it's time to start
    thinking about this years Corporate Cup Tournament.
    
       For those of you who have forgotten, I will take pleasure in
    reminding you that Shrewsbury won the coveted trophy last year,
    which means that we will be hosting this years tournament.
    
      The format for this year, as in years past, will be as follows :
    
        * Any and all Digital Golf leagues are invited to participate.
    
        * A (6) member team will represent each site. I suggest at least
          one alternate be chosen also, in case of last minute
          cancellations.
    
        * The selection process is up to each individual league.
    
        * The trophy will go to the site with the lowest combined 'net'
          score.
    
        * Other prizes, which will be determined later, will probably
          include low net, low gross, long drive, closest to pin, etc...
    
    
     The date for this years tournament is Friday, June 26.  The first
    tee time is 10:00 a.m.
    
     The cost will be $55 per person, which will include greensfees, cart,
    steak & fries banquet, and prizes.
    
     Now for the course..........The New England Country Club........
    
     N.E. C.C. is located off of Rt. 140 in Bellingham, Mass.
    
     It plays 6378 yds.....slope 129......course rating 71.4........
    
     I will enter a hole by hole description of the course, as well as 
     directions, in a future note.
    
     What I need to know in the next couple of weeks is which sites will
    be sending a team, and a contact person for that site/team.
    
     I can be reached at JUPITR::LONGCHAMPS or DTN 237-2466.
    
     Even though none of you will be taking the trophy home, it should
     still be a great time had by all... :-)
                                 
    
                                       Mike Longchamps

1483.1	Change of date.....	JUPITR::LONGCHAMPS		`Thu Apr 02 1992 14:27`	19
	I have received a few responses from people concerning the date of this years Corporate Cup tournament. It appears that June 26, being right at the end of the fiscal year, will effect some people's availability to participate.....(job requirements, etc....) Therefore, the date has been changed to Friday, June 5. All the other info in the base note remains unchanged. As of today, there are 3 sites signed up to participate.......Salem, Augusta, and Shrewsbury. Let's hear it from some of the other leagues out there !!!!!! Mike Longchamps
1483.2	busy time for league organizers	NHASAD::BLAISDELL	Keep an even keel	`Thu Apr 02 1992 15:21`	6
	Mike, some leagues haven't even published their own rosters yet, so you may have to extend the sign up period a bit until they get organized. -rick
1483.3	CC update w/ forecast...	JUPITR::LONGCHAMPS		`Tue Apr 28 1992 11:19`	23
	To date, we have 5 sites signed up to participate in this year's Corporate Cup. Augusta Marlboro Salem Shrewsbury Springfield If there are any other sites out there that are thinking about playing, I will need the following in the next couple of weeks: * the names and nodes of 6 players * USGA/MGA or league handicaps for the 6 players * the course rating for your home course * the slope of your home course * $55 per person The weather forecast for the tournament (June 5) is sunny, 76 degrees, with no wind !! Looking forward to seeing you at New England Country Club....... Mike Longchamps

	RE:.3 >> The weather forecast for the tournament (June 5) is sunny, 76 >> degrees, with no wind !! Are you in marketing or sales. :-)
1483.5	Obvious	DNEAST::STEVENS_JIM		`Tue Apr 28 1992 16:59`	6
	Obviously Marketing... Sales would have have increased the temperature in order to mark it down a bit. Signed, Manufacturing....
1483.6	1992 CUP IS FILLED	SALEM::ROGERS_G	GORDI	`Tue Jun 09 1992 16:43`	11
	A big thank you to Mike Longchamps for doing a fine job putting this tournament together this year, outstanding job! The New England Country Club was in great shape and very tough, especially the way I played. I really like the idea of coming back there next year. I also like the idea of making it a two day extravaganza. Practice round one day and have the tournament the second day. Holding it later in the year is also a good idea; June makes it tough to get time off when you work for manufacturing. Just my thoughts. Mike if you need any help let me know and I'll do what I can for you. Gordi
1483.7	AAHHHH.....12 shots	SA1794::LONCZAKG		`Tue Jun 09 1992 19:42`	19
	Mike and Balance of Team SHR, Ditto from the Springfield contingent. The tourney was a great time at a great course. We'll be publicizing a return there sometime in July. Our thanks for allowing us in and we all are looking forward to next year. A special note to Mike.....we've already drawn straws and designated a hitman to run over your clubs with a cart next year to hopefully shorten some of those titanic drives. Our only regret is that we weren't able to spend more time meeting everyone and getting to now you all a bit more. Next time! Thanks again and Congrats to TEAM SHREWSBURY! Regards, Gary, Mark, Jack, Frank, Joe and Tom
1483.8	Just wondering when it will happen	CHRLIE::HUSTON		`Fri Apr 30 1993 20:10`	9
	>Thanks again and Congrats to TEAM SHREWSBURY! Ok Team Shrewsbury, are we going to have it again this year? I think I can round up enough SNH golfers to join in the fun this year. (Right Rick B?) --Bob
1483.9	I'd like to play in this again	DEVMKO::BLAISDELL	Rick, dtn 264-5414	`Tue May 04 1993 12:23`	15
	> Ok Team Shrewsbury, are we going to have it again this year? I think > I can round up enough SNH golfers to join in the fun this year. > (Right Rick B?) > --Bob Right Bob H. Count me in. Be forewarned, I tried to round up players from our league last year for this tourney, and was able to get a couple of players out of 160 to express any interest. Course I only used our notes conference to advertise, and nobody uses notes conferences anymore. Go for it though! -rick
1483.10	When and where, SNH will be there!	CHRLIE::HUSTON		`Tue May 04 1993 20:34`	12
	rick, I am sure I can come up with enough people, heck you and I are 33% of the way there. Then there's our partners, just about there now. Shouldn't be a problem. All we gotta do is find out where and when, anybody out there with the answers?? --Bob
1483.11	WHEN, WHERE, WHAT IS GOING ON?	SALEM::ROGERS_G	GORDI	`Fri Jun 18 1993 10:50`	10
	It is awful quiet out there about the 1993 Corporate Challenge. I believe NIO (Hoodcroft league) would put together a team. I also know that Augusta has been inquiring about it; Jim Stevens wrote a note later in the conference asking when it will be. I do remember that we agreed to have it later in the summer, away from quarter/year end but like you I have expected to see something. Maybe the down-sizing has something to do with it??? I don't know....hopefully someone will put it together, it is one of my favorite tournaments. Gordi
