Here we go, it's time for the 2008 Ice Bowl :D

WATERLOO DISC GOLF CLUB�S
8TH ANNUAL ICE BOWL

Saturday January 26, 2008
Zilker Park Disc Golf Course (18 Hole Setup)

Signup Begins at 11:00 am
(at Polo Picnic Tables, by hole #1 of the north course)
Start at 12:30 pm

Every year, clubs and people from around the world gather together to help fight hunger within their communities and to have a day of fun playing disc golf no matter what the weather.

The rules of the Ice Bowl are simple: 1) Under no circumstances can an Ice Bowl be postponed or cancelled; 2) No wimps or whiners allowed; 3) There are no excuses for not attending!

We will be raising money and food for the Capital Area Food Bank. The entry fee is $13 plus 3 cans of food (or $15 and no food). For that $13, you will receive either an Ice Bowl Disc and Mini OR an Ice Bowl T-Shirt (supplies of both are limited - first come first choice; we will also have long-sleeve shirts and some other discs, but there are extra costs for them). After that, we are playing for fun!!!

We will also have some CTP contests and maybe some other fun stuff. The whole idea is to have a great time while helping others out who really need it. If you have anything you would like to donate as CTP prizes, please let us know. Anything we receive, we will give away!

Thanks Jon!

If turnout is big enough (and it usually is), we will set up some extra holes. I think we've actually played 21 holes the last few years.

Sign up for the Pease Mini is 10am....signup for the Ice Bowl will be available until 12:15pm. Lou will also find out how many people are planning on playing both so we can make the proper arrangements at Ice Bowl registration.

By the way, it doesn't look like much of an "Ice" Bowl:

Sat High 60
Low 47
Precip = 20%

Good Luck Waterloooooooo!

Hope you have a great day full of laughter and charity.

We will be out of town on an EDGE presentation to 1,000 teachers in Nevada otherwise we would be there.

Back to Back weekends if some of you can make the Live Oak Ice Bowl on February 2nd :)

We've got some really nice sponsorship stuff already in from Susan Macaluso and Disc Nation :). Thanks y'all!!!

We could really use a lot more though: discs, minis, shirts, gift cards, cool stuff, weird stuff, etc.

If you are coming out to play, please look around and see if you've got something we could give away. It doesn't have to be much, if everyone brings something, it will all add up to a great pile of prizes.

Also, if anyone would like to bring something to sell to raise money for the charity, please do so. Coffee, hot chocolate, snacks.

Heck, if someone wants to fire up the grill (either the one at the tables or bring their own) and cook something like hot dogs, hamburgers, sausages, that would be most wonderful.

Finally, please help spread the word about Ice Bowl this weekend. Because we are a week earlier than usual, we want to make sure everyone knows about it.

Thanks, and we'll see you this Saturday.

What time does the Ice Bowl end? SuperGirl (Nicole) and I will be driving in from Houston tonight (she is competing in a soccer tournament in Austin). We could bring a disc or two to donate. Her last game on Saturday ends around 3:00pm. After that we could swing by Zilker and drop off the disc. Would that work or will that be too late?

Thanks........Rick

We'll still be there, so come on by; thanks!!!

The round is usually over between 3 & 4 and then we'll have a big CTP game for lots of prizes (and we'll put your discs into that).

See y'all tomorrow - good luck to Super Girl with the soccer tourney :D
