ADGA Ice Bowl 2005

[dannyreeves]

Let's get the smack started! When is it?

Kid Roc that is a good question. WHEN is it? Inquiring minds would like to know.

[jasonc]

Sunday February 20th. Bring your partner and help support the Tarrant Area Food Bank.

Thanks Jason. :)

Is there going to be mixed teams again this year?

[jasonc]

Hopefully we'll have enough to do mixed teams again. February 20th will not be the date any longer............Toolen noticed that is the weekend of ZBoaz pro so we'll move it. As soon as Terry picks a new day I'll post it.

I think it would be great if we could split our charities this year. Half going to the TAFB, and the other half towards the Tsunami Relief.

Any thoughts?

[lauranovice]

I agree with John MyHero, we should have half going to tsunami relief.

[my_hero]

Uhhh......Isn't there a SUPER TOUR known as the Z-BOAZ BIG SHOW going on Feb. 20th?????

How can we be at two events in the same county at one time? Maybe the ADGA ICEBOWL date is incorrect?

Thought you knew how to scroll up and READ by now :eek: :D.

[my_hero]

Ooops. I still have tequila in my blood from New Years Eve. I thought that the diarrhea of bogies yesterday at the Z took care of the rest of the Tequila....guess not! :confused:

[cgflesner]

Maybe it was the chili.

John,

while your intentions are absolutely in the right spot, please consider this: MANY local charities are affected by reduced donations when a large, global size emergency occurs, as many good-spirited people redirect their contribution towards to victims of the huge disaster.

while i share your horror at what happened in asia, and your desire to help those victims, i urge the ADGA to remember that there are just as many needy people right here in the metroplex as ever, and they need our continued, strong support.

The United States Department of Agriculture’s report finds that more than 1 million Texans are hungry. That places Texas in the #2 spot on the most-hungry states!!! The report also said 5 percent of Texas families go hungry. In one of the wealthiest, most agriculturally rich states in the nation lies an ugly truth: Over 3.1 million people in Texas are "food insecure", meaning they don't always know where they will get the groceries or money for their next meal. This number includes approximately 874,000 Texans who may suffer from outright hunger, which means that at least one family member has skipped meals due to limited resources.

that being said, i propose keeping the ADGA Ice Bowl proceeds at home, and bestowing our full gift to our traditional recipient. it is needed more than ever as other local benefactors divert portions of their contributions to the asian disaster.

[my_hero]

Yes. The downfall of splitting the charity would be taking away from the local area. I don't want to do that. Maybe we, the ADGA, should run a mini in honor of the Tsunami relief efforts. I'd gladly donate some plastic.

[terrilldisc]

Pat has a good point. The US has alot of hungry people and alot of homeless kids too. I also read that Arlington homeless kidds was around 2,000 back around 2001. Look at the past events the US had.
Twin Towers, Hurricanes, and others . The point is when the US is in need of help there is no help besides us.
Lets not get caught up in the politics of the world.
Many country men have died for the US and i really believe that its in their souls for us to help one another here before we send help elswhere.
Its a traggic event that happened.

[woodpecker]

If I lived in Texas and I was hungry...I'd pitch me a tent around San Saba....I ain't never seen so many goats per square mile, anywhere.....they'll never miss a couple hundred a year.....

Has Toolen picked a date yet?

Make sure to check the Farmers Almanac for a nice warm day for the Ice Bowl :D

We will be playing team golf on Monday. Sign up will be at 9:30 with seeding begining at 10 am. This is a very fun format. You will be seeded with like skill level players for a round of match play. As usual there will be 3 -6 hole matches with 4 teams. Cost will be $5. We will be signing up at the South Pavillion by hole #1.

Cool, I hoped you were doing something Monday. CYA there.

[mikeharrell]

[space76]

bump

[my_hero]

Is there going to be an ice bowl this year?

Yes it will be Feb 19th. I have said Feb 26th, but there were some logistics problems with that date, so the 19th it is. Same format as always, Doubles. Mixed doubles will be a division as well. I will post all the info tomorrow.

[my_hero]

Darn.......Thanks Toolen. I'll be in Miami/Ft.Laud that week. No dubs for me. :(
.
.
.
but no beach for you. :D

Tell you what.....we will run a special day just for you the next week. You will not be able to shoot at the ace pot, and you can bring your card by the house when you are done with the 36 holes. :D:D:D

[my_hero]

Oh no, no special format needed. I'll just contribute as if i were there.

Although, maybe a special "Jug O' Righteousness" session is in order. :p

[jasonc]

We'll hold a hamster toss distance competition just for My-Hero. Of course you won't be able to use your hands :eek:.

I'm headed to Nolan's in about an hour, you want me to swing my JUG by ;).

Can't wait for the Ice Bowl, always a good time for a good cause.

[my_hero]

Okay. Can't miss it now. Have to cancel my Florida trip to see Lamoreaux win the gold...en.....brown medal!

Keep your JUG away from me. It only causes me grief.

[juliwithnoe]

Anyone out there going to be playing mixed doubles??

I might :D

[space76]

I will post all the info tomorrow.



Whats up with some info? Price, time, and format would be nice?

[cgflesner]

Terry alredy posted the date.

This Sunday, last year was best shot the first round and then Alt shot. But you both get to drive and you pick a shot to take and play alt shot from there.

It was either $40 a team or $20 a team.

Any more quesions? :p

$40 a team with a side ace pot of $5. Sign up between 7:30 and 9:00. Format is correct. Best shot first round and Modified Alternating the second round.

[cgflesner]

Is anybody going to play in the freezing rain this weekend?

[sandalman]

freezing rain is fun. i would play but my pardner's roommate is gone for he weekend so he hired a girl for the whole weekend so he's gonna just stay at home with her.

Black Eddie says that I need to stay my #$*&$! inside the crib this weekend! :D

[dannyreeves]

BTW this message board blows. I can't say a s s. They say it on TV and the radio for pete's sake.

[sandalman]

you cant say a s s because asspunching is not allowed. a good ol donkeypunch is quite acceptable though! :D

[sandalman]

IS ANYONE PLAYING??? its an ice bowl people ! its SUPPOSED to be crappy weather.

COME ON - GET OUT THERE!

i need a partner!

[my_hero]

Looks like it could be a REAL ice bowl instead of the normal 70 degree bowl.

Good Luck to all that participate!..........i'll be checking out a new course in the Fort Lauderdale area.

[my_hero]

<<<< has a mild case of sun burn.

Results?????

[reddman]

Where's the sunburn? Under that blue stuff??? :confused: :D How much their ace pot that you hit? Can I ask one more question? :D

[my_hero]

Must have been a doozy. :confused:

Is everyone recovering from the ever so popular JUG 'O RIGHTEOUSNESS?

Hate to leave South Florida tomorrow....i hear it's been chilly in northern mexico.

[jasonc]

When G talked to Loompa on Sunday there were only 12 teams, I'm not sure on how many were in what division, so I've been waiting for the man in the know to post .

Hated missing it. But after seeing the weather, I was glad I had to work :D

Watch it Jason!! WE had 12 teams for the REAL Ice Bowl. 25 degree's when I got out to the park at 7. 29 when I left at 5. Too bad we have that burn ban in effect. I could have kept warmer. My asst TD Andrew deceided he would play and that left me freezing at the pavillion all day. At least the pizza was warm. I will post scores tomorrow. Brice L and Shawn R won Open that had 2 teams. IT was allot of fun for the players. Starting both round there was a heavy down fall of light snow. Blowing pretty good for a while. Hole 5's tee pad was completely ice for most of the first round as well as others that I did not see.

[bambam]

a "heavy downfall of light snow"???
