Ice Bowl 2013

Ok.

I will start the donations.  I am going to buy 1 PDGA membership for someone at the Ice Bowl.  I am uncertain how I will make this determination (no I won't buy it for myself, but I like your thinking).

I am undecided if I am going to buy it for a NON-PDGA person (meaning they have never been a member), or a renewing member.  My thought was initially that I would buy a membership for the person that brought the most people to the Ice Bowl, regardless, and I may do that.  I may also look at a method to the person that most epitomizes the Ice Bowl, and works the hardest towards it's success (Rick and BoD, and usual suspects don't count, I hope and am inspired by all of you already, and how could I make that determination).

Suffice it to say, I will look a method prior to the event, but wanted to get people thinking about the Ice Bowl as we are about 12 weeks away from having that wonderful weekend upon us again.

Hopefully a new Chili Contest winner (though I hope he returns to feed us) and other items, but I would encourage us all to be thinking about the Ice Bowl and what we can do to make it better this year again!

I might still be learning the disc golf world, but I got the chili part down look out I'm after that title. How many pots of chili can we bring. Think I might just have to make my white potato chili

LOVE IT!

Bring as many as it takes.  We have a contest, but most importantly we work towards feeding the 400 people playing!

I know it was slightly shot down previously but will mention it again. We COULD shorten up the course via Ace Race style and have a tournament within a tournament where we also award the most points via metal and aces. Yes you still play out the entire hole for total score. Thus raising more money by offering another entry for the Ace Race portion of the tournament. Plus still offer mulligans for first round only.
Rick mentioned last year of offering another entry fee for those not accepting their first round score on Saturday to replay their first round on Sunday. Thus raising even more funds which is the real objective. Thus EVERYBODY wins!!

Not sure what anyone thinks if not commenting!!

The Ice Bowl will be January 26-27 at Rosedale park.  Once again we will be splitting the donation between Bishop Sullivan Center and Harvesters.

Most everything will be as it was last year.  One of the things that slowed us down last year was CTP, we have kicked around is not having a CTP for all donated items.  One option is to have a CTP for one thing.  Then have a silent auction for some stuff and a raffle or something else for other stuff.  Another option is to not have a CTP at all, just do the silent auction and raffle.  We would like some feed back on this, please.

Silent AUCTIONs!!

[andyportwood]

Love the silent auction idea!

[Disciple]

I like the ball golf CTP where there is a marker stake at the hole of choice and then if someone gets closer they move the marker stake and signs their name. It works with the regular flow of play and doesn't take additional time

[dan howard]

I know it's time consuming, takes volunteer effort to run, and probably would raise less $$$ than a silent auction, but the Ice Bowl CTP has always been a lot of FUN!

Do we have dates yet for the ICE BOWL?

Do we have dates yet for the ICE BOWL?

It is always on the Sunday before the Super Bowl and this year is no exception. This year it will be on Sunday the 27th.  Saturday the 26th will be for getting the first round in to avoid the crowd on Sunday.
