The International Disc Golf Center is happy to bring you the 2020 IDGC Ice Bowl! This event will celebrate the 13th consecutive year we have hosted an Ice Bowl in an effort to help the fight against hunger in the CSRA. This is a CEP Charity event, and is Trophy Only for all participants.
Similar to previous years, we will be raising money to benefit two charities:
- Golden Harvest Food Bank
https://goldenharvest.org/
- Columbia County Cares
https://columbiacountycares.org/
This event has been granted Tour Manager approval to forgo event payout for all competitors to help in raising more for our charity. This includes both amateur and professional divisions.
All competitors will receive a player pack, a provided lunch, an opportunity to go home with a new trophy, and of course, that refreshing feeling you get from supporting such a great cause.
In 2019, we were able to raise $2,900 and 676 lbs of food. Out of 197 total Ice Bowls, we finished 28th in cash raised, and 12th in food raised. This is fantastic, and we appreciate everyone's donations in previous years. Let's see if we can place even higher in 2020!

Food donations can be brought to the IDGC at any point from January 20th through January 25th. For every 2 food items donated, you will receive 1 raffle ticket, giving you an opportunity to win some fantastic prizes during the raffle drawing at awards.
Raffle Prizes Include:
- Cam Todd ZUCA cart
- Latitude 64 Pro Target (From IDGC Putting Green)
- More prizes to be announced!
If you don't plan to bring food donations, but would still like to participate in the raffle, we will have tickets available to purchase in the IDGC Pro Shop during the event.
If no Ace is hit during the event, the Ace Pool will be donated to the charity. Included in our 2020 donation will be the Ace Pool from the 2019 HoFC A-Tier where no Aces were hit all weekend.

Lunch
Similar to previous years, we will be partnering with the Augusta Disc Golf Association to bring you the Annual Chili Cook-Off for lunch. Thank you ADGA!
We encourage everyone to bring their best recipe for a chance to hold bragging rights throughout 2020, and a trophy to prove your excellence! If you're not interested in bringing a chili, but would still like to support the lunch, we'll also be looking for supporters to provide crackers, cornbread, drinks, or anything else to help fill our participants' bellies between rounds.
All chili cook-off contestants should coordinate with the ADGA Board of Directors ahead of the event. We'll be more than happy to help put you in contact with them if you're unfamiliar with the 2020 ADGA BoD.

Hi Ryan. There are no day of sign ups, but if you let me know right now which division you want to play in, I can add you, and you can pay morning of. I'll no longer be adding late registrants at 11 am, so please let me know prior to then.
Thanks Zach. Unfortunately I won’t know if I can make it until later tonight.
Ok, thank you for letting me know. We hope to see you at another IDGC event in the future!
