St. George is located in the southwestern corner of Utah. It's a warm weather retirement community with seven beautiful diamonds consisting of
golf green quality outfields with enclosed fences. There is a full service snack open during the entire tournament. The ball park is situated amongst
the beautiful backdrop of red colored mountains and green trees and lawns. There is plenty of parking. The ball park is located just a few minutes
away from the city center. These are the most beautiful diamonds West of Florida's Disney World. Many feel they are the finest they have ever played on.

Many teams over the years have made this a family trip combining Las Vegas and the Red Rock tournament into a super 3-4 day holiday. They either
arrive a day early or leave a day later spending a night or two in Las Vegas. There are special group rates for 10 or more people. A few of the
players significant others spent the entire time in Las Vegas and were joined by their men either before or after the tournament.

There is also a full facility resort located in Mesquite, Nevada just a short 25 - 30 minute drive to St. George. It has many inexpensive hotels
and casinos. Some rooms in Mesquite last year were about $21.00

The Las Vegas airport is about a 1½ hour drive North up Interstate 15. As you approach the mountain pass approaching St. George, the view is
absolutely incredible. Be sure to bring your camera. Driving by car from the Salt Lake City area is about a 5 hour drive. Driving from Southern California can easily be calculated via Las Vegas.
