26th Tucson Ice Bowk at El Rio GC March 13

Leave a reply
Registration for the 26th Annual Tucson Ice Bowl benefiting the Community Food Bank of Southern Arizona will go live at 9 a.m. tomorrow, Monday Feb. 15 on Discgolfscene.com.
 
The Tucson Ice Bowl is part of the national Ice Bowl® series of winter disc golf events that are held each year, with an overall mission of raising funds to fight hunger. (For more information, go to icebowlhq.com)
The Ice Bowl is Tucson Disc Golf’s biggest annual charity event and since 1995 we have raised more than $20,000 plus hundreds of pounds of food for the Food Bank.
 
 
We are setting up a 24-hole course at El Rio Golf Course and because of COVID-19 restrictions not allowing shotgun starts we must use tee times. That will limit our playing time somewhat but to make sure everybody can finish before dark we will be starting groups at the #1 and #13 tees. Though we are confident this will allow everyone to finish we are initially limiting overall entry to 72 players, though that could change.
 
Entry fee is $50 for all divisions which includes greens fee and shared golf cart. Pro divisions will be paid out in cash, ams in merchandise. We will play by PDGA rules, except that $1 mulligans will be available for pre-purchase and during the round. Sponsorships are $25 per hole.
 
In accordance with course rules, players will be required to wear masks around the clubhouse and starting areas.
 
Thanks for supporting the Tucson Ice Bowl! — Wich
 
 

TGDA responds to coronavirus: Stay safe

The Tucson Disc Golf Association is aware that COVID-19 is not something that anyone should be taking lightly.
 
We have canceled all TDGA affiliated leagues until further notice. If you have not read the PDGA’s recommendations to prevent the spread of COVID-19, please review it at your earliest convenience, on the PDGA website. As we respect their recommendations. 
 
Public parks have not been shut down in Arizona and we cannot keep the public from going to parks / disc golf courses. Please understand (as you may know) people will continue to play disc golf at our local disc golf courses. IF you should decide to continue using the disc golf courses, PLEASE 
-*STAY HOME IF YOU HAVE ANY OF THE SYMPTOMS OF THE VIRUS*
-limit your groups as recommended by CDC
-stay 6 feet away from each other
-limit touching the baskets
-do not touch other people’s discs or other belongings
-wash your hands with soap and water as soon as possible 
-use hand sanitizer throughout the round.
-Avoid touching your face until you have washed your hands 
– wash your bags and discs regularly -use a 1 to 10 bleach solution for your discs) 
 
We understand that this is an unfortunate time for our sport, as most of us play on a daily basis. As one of the strongest Disc Golf communities, we need to stay strong and stick together. Meaning limit the controversial post and comments on all Tucson affiliated Disc Golf sites for the time being. Let’s not lose relationships within our Disc Golf community over this pandemic.
As always, thank you all for being apart of our great community, stay safe and healthy! 
We will be back to normal play as soon as possible!

25th Tucson Ice Bowl raises record amount for Food Bank

Leave a reply

The 25th Tucson Ice Bowl raised a RECORD total of $3,530 for the Community Food Bank of Southern Arizona! The total included more than 1,600 mulligans, and Steve Miller won the most mullis prize with $107!

Thanks again to all the players, Fred Enke GC, the course construction crew and our sponsors, Tucson Disc Golf and its members, Scott Carle, Franklin Easterly and Baer Joinery, club 5:20, Ben Vosper and DG Woodworks, Travis Bowen and CTP sponsor Quentin Riddle. We are looking to send the funds to the Food Bank electronically to avoid contact, so we may not have the traditional Giant Check presentation, but your efforts were GIANT. Thanks, Wich and the TDGA Board
