Please see below for an indication of the costs and the dates of the multi level tournament. Any Juniors please contact me for more detailed information regarding the GB Junior squad that is planning to go. Patch -------------------------------------- Date: 3/12/97 8:38 am From: Gregory D Williams The tournament is going to run from Aug. 15 1997 check in. Aug. 16 first day of play. To friday Aug. 21 the day of Finals for the Multi Divisonal tournament with the Elite Championships also. Saturday will be the finals for the WFDF WUC . We will have lots of stuff planned please realize that this is just a preliminary schedule things may change but only in a good way. The weather in Minnesota at this time is great hot and sunny so the trips to the wave pool will be appreciated. We have an excellent variety of bands locally and we may have a national act come in also. We are going to do this in order to attract spectators who may come in for the band and see a great Ultimate game. The fields most seriously are the most plush, lush, level you have ever played on. As you know this was meant to be an Olympic venue. This facility was built on an old sod farm that was built on an old peat bog so there is resilence and springy-ness (?) that makes it easy to go HO and your joints are not sore. The costs are $150.00 per team team fee and $155.00 per player fee. For a per player fee of $175.00 you will get a subscription to World Ultimate Magazine. A down payment check of the $500.00, the down payment of what is owed, is required to hold your spot this will be due by mid April the rest is due In June. Late fees will be assessed. This fee includes parties, free bus transportation to / from fields, parties, wave pool, and other points of interest. Also included are the wonderful players package we are looking at bags or daypack backpacks. Tons of other tourney related items are included also. We will have dormitory rooms (singles and doubles) at the University of Minnesota. These will have telephones in each room, air conditioned, T.V. and game rooms. There will be an all you can eat cafeteria with main entrees, taco/burrito bar, salads/fruit bars, hard and soft ice cream, pop, juices, coffee etc.. All for $30.00 a night per person. Within a 3 minute walk of the dorms are 10 resturants, 5 coffee houses, 4 bars (with parties planned), all kinds of shops, two grocery stores, liquor store and a movie theater. What we need is for those interested in dorm stay to contact us by team in January. This is because the U of Minn. is a little unsure of how many Ultimate players attend these things. We also have hotels lined up with rooms blocked The Hilton is going to be our Tournament Hotel but many others are lined up also. The website will have all the contact info. up on it real soon. http://www.worldultomate.org . All amounts are in U.S. dollars.
