8th Annual MHDGC Ice Bowl

Come snow, sleet or even sunshine disc golfers and friends from all over Colorado will play and compete in the annual Mile High Ice Bowl fundraising event. This years proceeds will benefit The Arvada Community Food Bank and The Food Bank of the Rockies. We are hoping to top $15,000.00 this year and retain our first place status for Ice Bowl finishes in fundraising.

Admission is FREE for spectators with a donation of canned food or cash is gladly accepted. The food banks can turn $1.00 into 4+ meals so we try to raise more $$ so they can buy the specific items they are low on. Either way money or canned foods it all helps those that need it.

WHEN: Saturday February 6, 2010. Check-in at 8:30 am Player meeting starting at 9:30 am

WHERE: Bird's Nest Disc Park 18125 64th Pkwy. just east of the West Arvada Dog Park and Arvada Blunn Reservoir Arvada, CO

WHO: players or non-players of all ages and skills can join the FUN and help raise funds and awareness of these charitable non-profit organizations: Food Bank of the Rockies and Arvada Community Food Bank. Sponsors of the Ice Bowl to be announced.

MULLIGANS:
Players will receive mulligans (do-overs) based on how much money they raise! For every $40 in pledges a player will receive 5 mulligans. And don't forget, every mulligan doubles as a raffle ticket to get started. Also, players may purchase mulligans onsite the day of the event 5/$20 before the round starts. After the round starts mulligans are $5 each.

Players can carry as many discs as they want but once a disc is thrown you can’t retrieve a disc to throw again from the same lie on the same hole.

Players can throw mulligans until their bag(s) are empty .

Players must use the last throw (mulligan) as their lie for the next throw.

If there is enough snow on the ground we will also have a downhill putting contest for those that are brave enough.

For those that are gathering pledges it will help me if you can email me with your projected efforts. If you are lucky enough to be working for a company that will match your efforts let me know what you need from us to get that to happen.

We will also have an auction at the Westwood clubhouse and we could use items for auctioning.

Entry is $30 for Adults and $20 for Juniors.
Unable to play? Sign up for the Non-Playing Supporter division to receive a player's package or stop by when you can, we'll have some extra Ice Bowl discs for sale!
