Thanks for adding me in there for consideration, @RandallT; I really appreciate the thought and I am very much interested. That is my B-Day weekend and so I'll check to make sure my wife doesn't have anything planned!

I guess as this evolves, would there be a particular hotel in which we would stay as a group? Would there be a cost for the weekend, like a registration fee or anything? This will be my first TST outing and so I'm not sure how this is normally done

Yes, going by past shindigs either myself or @DaveP043, @RandallT, @jsgolfer (DC locals) will/can help make some group arrangements for hotel rooms as things mature. Folks will have to settle costs individually for their rooms with the hotels obviously. Lot of time folks partner up to split room costs. Perfectly fine if someone wants to find their own accommodations too. You can reach out to someone you want to partner up. I would suggest to hold out till things firm up some more.

Cost wise it will depend a lot of number of participants as far as the clinics and golf is concerned. Erik will present cost information eventually for at least the clinics once a certain number of participants express solid interest and plans firm up.

Please add yourself to the list above to do so.

Definitely interested.. I think there's a strong chance I will bring my buddy @Kamal Chantal (technically a TST member although he isn't active). I will add him to the list once I know for sure.

Amtrak has an auto train that would take me and my car up there, but around $800 and is slower. I swear I don't know how they stay in business.

Time flies fast so, in planning ahead, please let me know if you need help when you have things more sorted out for lodging arrangements for either hotel or an executive apartment like below close to an airport, metro, dining, etc.  an apartment winds up costing less per person per room if you decide to share and has more amenities.

As @GolfLug and @Hatchman say, those of us who live nearby can advise on hotels.  The golf course is in Round Hill, which is basically the middle of nowhere.  The nearest hotels will be in Leesburg.  I live in Reston, and the towns of Herndon, Sterling, and Ashburn are between me and the golf course.  with enough people, something like vrbo.com might work out.

As for the cost of golf, I'll work out the best deal I can, once we get a better handle on the number of players.  Last year our guest fee was $75, so that would be the top end.  The cost to attend a clinic would be separate.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT · Posted

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      By 5amZ · Posted

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By GolfLug · Posted

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.

      I have access to far more data (including surveys and polls) than you do with your anecdotes. I mean this as plainly and literally as possible: you’ve demonstrated that you do not. They would, one way or the other.
