NEW!!! Directions to Lions Park
The site is just off the wave pool at Lions Park. The park is about 2
blocks southeast of the intersection of 83 (elmhurst road) and
Northwest Highway (rt. 12).
From the intersection of Golf Road and Elmhurst Road (83), go north to
where the street jogs to the right (becomes Lincoln for a block), then
keep going east (elmhurst road cuts north right away) on Lincoln three
blocks and turn right around the park until you see us. Pretty simple.
Just a side note... since the bulk of our local net players decided that
their little secret camping trip was more important than regionals, we
are considering converting this event to an event called a "Kicknick". We
will still be out there all day Saturday and Sunday from 11:00 on, and
having a blast, but entry fees will be less, and there will be more
emphasis on the needs of the intermediate and novice players.
We are about to announce another net event in conjunction with Mayors
Cup Soccer Tourney this summer so watch for it soon (July 21 and 22
probably.)
This year we have split "Regionals" into two distinctly separate
events... NET and FREESTYLE. After all, they both require completely
differing site requirements, so why be good to one group and not the
other? Never again. We are focusing this event on the Footbag Net
event! Did you hear that? NET is the featured event, and all eles
is secondary! Net requires a big open field of green grass, where
the ideal freestyle site is concrete or indoor wood flooring, with
good man-made lighting and control over "outdoor" factors like wind
and temperature. We have a great big field of green grass for the
net players, and even a nice bandshell for the freestylers to jam in
off to the side (until the tuba players take over on Sunday at 3:00).
Out of towners are welcome to stay at our house, or other free host
homes.
