THP Outing Suggestions
Okay guys and gals, as many of you know, we are already planning our next outing and want it to be even bigger and better than the one we just had. So to do that, we want to hear from everybody with suggestions on what they want. Here are some basic questions we would like answered.
1. After coming to or reading about the 1st THP FL Golf outing, are you more or less likely to come to the next one?
2. Do you prefer a short weekend outing or prefer it to be an extended stay (3-4 days or more)?
3. If you have a family and children, what could we do to get them all involved and bring the entire group?
4. Outside of rounds of golf, what do you want to see there?
5. Demo Day...Do you prefer free for all like it was, or would you prefer something more organized and educational.
6. Assuming it will be in FL, what time of year would you like it done?
And of course give us your input on anything else. This is for people that have come to the last one and have not come. GG and myself are working on something pretty special, but before we get down to it, we want to make sure that we are maximizing the efforts so that the turnout is even bigger.
Updated
Ok everybody, here is what we know right now and here is what we are working with and on.
Time Frame & Date
We are looking at October as the month and right now either the weekend of the 15th or the weekend of the 22nd.
Format
It would be a similar format to what we did this last time.
Friday Night - Arrival and dinner and drinks for those that want to come.
Saturday AM - Wedge and Putter Demo Day
Saturday Afternoon - Round of golf "freestyle". Paired up in foursomes and play a round.
Saturday PM - Dinner with everybody and Drinks (except thanks)
Sunday AM - Driver, Hybrid, FW Woods, Irons Demo Day
Sunday Afternoon - Organized golf in some sort of tourney style. Team event...
TBD
Sunday PM - Dinner and drinks for those that want to be a part of it.
Check In & Check Out
Each place we have spoken with have told us that they will agree to let people check in 2 days early and check out 2 days later for same discounted rates if bringing a family or just want to stay in FL for more than a weekend.
Location
TBD
We are working with 5 resorts in 4 different cities. Orlando, Naples, West Palm Beach, and Sarasota. The goal is to find the best location for golf and other festivities and offer a place where people want to come and enjoy themselves on a vacation with fellow THP'ers. The resorts get pricey on stay and play packages and we are working on getting those costs down for everybody. We should have most of those details ironed out in the next 2 weeks.
What we need
What we need from each person that is thinking about coming are some questions answered.
1. Do you prefer the nicer resort with stay and play to keep everything together and organized or do you prefer the cheap hotel and get a rental car to drive to different courses in the area (like the last one).
2. What is better for you? Beach, Spa, or kid friendly theme parks?
Let us know your thoughts and we will have more details over the next week with what the plans are. Thank you.
