Weather/Lightning Planning

Medical and Inclement Weather Plan

 

In the event that the fields need to be cleared due to dangerous weather events, such as lightning, there are no buildings at the Aurora Sports Complex that teams can use to shelter in, nor any large stores or public buildings nearby enough that teams can walk. 


Given this, please plan accordingly and keep vehicles at the complex or nearby enough that you can get your teams off the fields into vehicles quickly in case of adverse weather. 


   

Parking and Admissions: Pay-What-You-Can


We want to keep the US Open affordable, based on people’s different financial circumstances, while also promoting the value of the event experience and the many programs and services USA Ultimate and our local host (Altitude Ultimate (AU)) provide to the community. Spectators are asked to use THIS LINK, or the QR code below, to pay their admissions fee before or during the event. (This information will also be handed out in the form of a flier and posted elsewhere at the event.)


This fee is flexible, the following suggestions are a framework to consider.

I can pay more = $20/day, $60/whole event

I can pay the regular rate = $15/day, $45/whole event

I can pay less = $10/day, $30/whole event

*Players, coaches, and children under 12 are not expected to pay admissions. 


All revenue from admissions fees goes towards funding USA Ultimate and Altitude Youth Ultimate’s missions to support and grow the ultimate sport and community. Please pass this information along to parents/guardians and other spectators and supporters. Thank you!
