- Tyler Ice Bowl Recap!
2007 Tyler Ice Bowl is a Huge Success for Aiding Our Neighbors Food Bank!
Building on the past few years of successful Ice Bowls, the Tyler Ice Bowl
looked to possibly be a 75-player event in 2007. But then, despite early
morning showers, Mother Nature stepped in and gave us a 73 degree balmy day
on January 6th. The result was that 94 players showed up to play.
Thankfully, we have 27 holes at the Tyler State Disc Golf Course so we were
able to accommodate the crowd. Unfortunately, a large number of casual
players who showed up during the round had to be turned away to Tinicum,
Sedgley, or Rutgers, or asked to come back a bit later in the day. We also
had four non-playing volunteers as well as a number of playing volunteers
and people that just came by to drop off canned goods and say hi.
We gave away official Ice Bowl merchandise to the top three finishers in
each division as well as the top three donators of canned goods. Everyone
that stayed around received a tee prize, and although the weather would have
dictated Ice Cream Sundaes, we all enjoyed the traditional Hot Dog Split
Sundaes. Contrary to tradition, the Mulled Cider was served ice cold
instead of piping hot. The traditional Tyler Ice Bowl ICE Trophies were
given out to the divisional winners and happily they had not melted too much
in their individual foam coolers.
Many thanks to Stephen, Alan, JAFO, JB, Missy, Ginny, and Amber for all
their help to make this year's Ice Bowl such a huge success! Also special
thanks to the BCDGA crews (and B.O.B.) who helped by setting up and taking
down the tents. You all know who you are, and if all goes well on the
pavilion building front -- you bear the honor of having performed that task
for the last time for a Tyler Ice Bowl! Thanks.
As in past years, the collection of canned goods for donation to the Aiding
Our Neighbors food bank based in Yardley PA was the focus of the event. As
we had collected 1778 lbs. last year, our goal this year was to collect 2000
lbs of food or more. Due to the large turn out and some extra special
efforts by a few folks we blew away our goal as we ended up with over 4400
lbs. of food!!! A very special tip of the hat to my co-TD Stephen Caffery
for bringing in 1800 lbs of food himself by saving money all year and
beating the bushes at work. I may be the heart of the Tyler Ice Bowl, but
Stephen is the soul.
Hope to see everyone next year! Can we reach 5000 lbs?

- Tyler Work Hours!
Tyler Work "Hours"
As much of the big/heavy projects are complete, there are just a few things needed during the Winter to keep the Disc Golf Course looking good and help with erosion control. Help is needed to spread chips provided by Mike's Tree Service.
The chip piles currently on the course (Holes 1, 4, 5, 6, 7 & 9) will need to be dispersed.
This is not a very long job (especially if we have more than few people).
To this end, I would like to have some volunteers on the following mornings:
Jan 27th 8am (Upper Plantation lot)
Feb 3rd 8am (Upper Plantation lot)
We should be able to complete this work quickly with able bodies. Work will stop at 12 noon or sooner on both days.
Please contact me if you are planning to help on either of these days:
rhay@customessence.com
or 215-982-0657
Thanks
