$305 raised online – Can we get to $500
So far 25 Disc Golfers have pre-registered for the GMDGC Ice Bucket Tournament on Jan. 30th at Center Chains in Waterbury. The entry fee is only $20 and we’ve collected some incredible prizes for players to win. Everything from a Burton Snowboard to Skinny Pancake and Alchemist gift certificates to Sugarbush day passes and lots and lots of discs. With 20 or more players and over a dozen prizes, almost everyone will win something!!
But this isn’t just about winning cool stuff — it’s about raising a ton of dough for Vermonters most in need. The Ice Bucket is a fund raiser for the Waterbury Area Food Shelf and the Chittenden Emergency Food Shelf. Last year we raised over $2k total between player’s fees and non-player donations. So far, we’ve raised $305 online, plus an additional $152 from a generous donor who is matching online donations 50 cents on the dollar.
Can we get the online donations to $500 by next Saturday?

One way to raise money is to ask your friends and family to sponsor you just like people do for Beast Cancer awareness every year for the “Walk for the Cure.” That’s what Jeff Spring did. He pre-registered for the Ice Bucket and got 2 friends (so far) to sponsor him — raising an extra $100. Another player has 8 sponsors so far averaging $20 each.
Don’t forget that everyone who gives online is eligible to win a Burton 2010 Clash 158 snowboard too. The odds to win have never been better. Let’s get to $500 by Saturday. It’s up to us to help as many Vermonters in need as we can.
