I would like to be considered as well. Even though I am in Atlanta, I get back to the Chicagoland area a few times a year to visit family and squeeze in golf at some of my old haunts, as well as trying to tick the boxes a number of them that I missed when I was young and foolish and had the opportunity I had right before my eyes.
I missed so many -- some were private, and now public. Of the private ones, I just didn't get around to them participating in CDGA events. Then many public classic ones, like Cog Hill 4. Never played it. Only #2. And I'd like to see the rework done at Mt. Prospect that I hear so much about.
And, some of the new ones that have come along in the Chicagoland area intrigue me immensely, like Prarie Landing and Stonewall Orchard.
In any event, the GCA KO sounds like tons of fun and a great format to see other courses and meet like minded folks.
