GENERAL RULES AND INFORMATION

It’s not too late and we still have plenty of openings, so if anyone is interested in attending this hunt, please contact us by email at peyton@gsbsdaytonahunt.com or phone (386) 255-4659. The deadline for making your reservations at The Plaza Resort & Spa, at our discounted group rate, has been extended to April 20, 2008 (click on the hotel info link for all the details).

Please check the website for any news, changes, updates, etc. before coming to the hunt. Also, be sure to check the website after the hunt because we will be posting pictures of this years hunt (give us a few weeks to recoup first).

Registration will be on Friday, April 25, 2008, from 10:00 AM until 5:00 PM. There will be a brief orientation at 5:00 PM on Friday, followed by the KELLYCO hunt at 5:30 PM. If you can’t get here on Friday, we will have a late registration Saturday morning, April 26, 2008, from 8:00 AM until 9:00 AM. ALL HUNT ENTRANTS ARE TO BE IN THE BALLROOM BY 9:00 AM ON Saturday! We are going with a patriotic (red, white & blue) theme again this year, so if you have any clothes or accessories that fit into this category, please wear them – it will look great in the pictures!

When you register, you will be given a “welcome bag” with more information, and lots of GOODIES. You will also be issued a 6th ANNUAL GREAT SOUTHERN BEACH SHOOTOUT badge which MUST be worn while on the hunt field. NO BADGE, NO HUNT, NO EXCEPTIONS! If you lose your badge, it will cost you $200.00 to get another one. The hunts will be held rain or shine. Each hunt will last one hour, or until everyone leaves the hunt field – whichever comes first. The hunt schedule is as follows:
