ANOTHER SITE SAID THAT IS WAS SCH FOR THE 16-24TH. IF YOU HEAR OF WHEN IT IS COMING, COULD YOU KEEP ME POSTED?? I KINDA WOULD LIKE TO STAY AWAY BECAUSE OF THE CROWDS. BUT ON THE OTHER HAND, I HOPE THOSE ARE NOT THE DATES BECAUSE OUR 4 YEAR ANNIVERSARY IS ON THE 21ST AND I WOULD LIKE TO BE DOWN THERE!! THANKS FOR THE INFO!

Unless you're planning on trying to golf every day, you probably won't even notice the crowds that week. The golf fans tend to watch the matches and not even go to the parks, and there's not really a huge spike in attendance. If you noticed it last time, it's likely due to something other than the golf tourney -- could have been a big convention in town or something.
