• After Check In, go inside the hall to get your putter and ball (if needed).  You will also receive a scorecard and your starting hole.  Please go to hole you’ve been assigned to help keep teams spread out as evenly as possible, which helps with flow and the time required to play.

No problem, please still come if you are late and if you are early, you can hang out in the foyer until doors open at the scheduled time.  Please note early access to the hall will not be available for the 6:00 shifts to allow BBBS time to retrieve putters and balls and prepare to serve food at the Clubhouse for the next group of teams.
